 ACKNOWLEDGMENT, RELEASE AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

 This ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, RELEASE AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into
as of the          day of November 2012, effective as of December 21, 2011 by and among RPM Energy Management LLC (“RPM”), Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P.
(“KKR”), and Samson Resources Corporation (“Samson”). 
 WHEREAS, employees of RPM acted as
consultants and advisors to Samson in connection with the provision of diligence and consulting services relating to the acquisition by Samson of Samson Investment Company (“SIC”) and its subsidiaries (the
“Transaction”) and assisted Samson with optimizing and implementing the business and operating plan of Samson, SIC and their respective subsidiaries during the 100-day transitional period following the consummation of the
Transaction (the “Services”); 
 WHEREAS, KKR and RPM entered into that certain engagement letter agreement
dated as of December 21, 2011 (the “Engagement Letter”), under which RPM agreed, on behalf of itself and its employees, to provide the Services to KKR and Samson relating to the Transaction (the “Engagement”),
in consideration for a cash payment and the issuance to RPM of options to purchase 1,200,000 shares of the common stock of Samson at a strike price of $5.00 (the “Options”); 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.8 of the Interim Investors Agreement, dated November 22, 2011, among Samson, Affiliates of KKR,
ITOCHU Corporation, Crestview Partners II, L.P. and Natural Gas Partners IX, L.P., the parties thereto agreed that upon consummation of the Transaction, Samson would bear all costs and expenses of the investors in the Transaction, and therefore upon
such consummation Samson made the cash payment to RPM required pursuant to the Engagement Letter and assumed the obligation to issue the Options to RPM pursuant to the Engagement Letter; 

WHEREAS, the parties hereto intend to acknowledge and agree that the obligation to issue the Options was effectively transferred to
Samson upon consummation of the Transaction and that, to the extent Samson issues the Options to those employees of RPM that acted as consultants and advisors to Samson in connection with consummation of the Transaction, such issuance shall thereby
discharge and release any obligation Samson previously had to issue such Options to RPM; and 
 WHEREAS, the parties hereto
intend to amend the terms of the Engagement Letter as provided herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual
covenants and agreements herein made and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 1.
Assumption. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that with effect from consummation of the Transaction, which consummation occurred on December 21, 2011, Samson assumed all obligations of KKR set forth in the Engagement Letter
and in all respects replaced KKR as the party required to perform obligations as counterparty to RPM pursuant to the terms thereof. RPM and Samson hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that KKR is forever and irrevocably released from any
obligation it has, previously had, or may in the future have, in respect of such obligations set forth in the Engagement Letter. 

  
 1 

 2. Options Issuance. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that, pursuant
to the terms of the Engagement Letter, Samson currently intends, subject to the final approval of the board of directors of Samson, to issue the Options to the employees of RPM that acted as consultants and advisors to Samson in connection with the
consummation of the Transaction. 
 3. Release. RPM hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that upon consummation of the
issuance of the Options to such employees of RPM, Samson’s obligation to issue the Options to RPM pursuant to the Engagement Letter shall be discharged, and forever and irrevocably released, and Samson shall not have any further obligations to
issue the Options pursuant to the terms of the Engagement Letter or otherwise. 
 4. [Section Intentionally Omitted].

 5. Conflicts. To the extent any terms or provisions are inconsistent between this Agreement and the underlying equity
agreements relating to the Options, excluding the Engagement Letter (the “Equity Agreements”), the terms and provisions of the Equity Agreements shall control. 
 6. Indemnification. 
 (a) To the fullest extent permitted by
law, neither RPM nor any of its Affiliates, nor the officers, directors, employees, partners, stockholders, members or agents of any of the foregoing, nor Brian Telesmanich or Meagan Gleanney, shall be liable to Samson or its Affiliates for any
losses sustained or liabilities incurred as a result of any act or omission taken or suffered by RPM or any such other Person in performing the Services (including any liability for any acts or omissions of its Affiliates) to the extent (i) the
act or failure to act of RPM or such other Person was in good faith and in a manner it believed to be in, or not contrary to, the best interests of Samson and its Affiliates, and (ii) the conduct of RPM or such other Person did not constitute
Malfeasance. The termination of an action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, in and of itself, create a presumption or otherwise constitute evidence that RPM or such
other Person is not entitled to exculpation hereunder, provided that a final, non-appealable judgment or order adverse to RPM or such other Person expressly covering the exculpation exceptions set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) above may
constitute evidence that RPM or such other Person is not so entitled to exculpation. 
 (b) Samson hereby agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless RPM, each of its Affiliates (and all directors, officers, partners, employees, stockholders, members and agents (to the extent agreed by RPM) of the foregoing), Brian Telesmanich and Meagan Gleanney (each, an
“Indemnified Party”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and 

  
 2 

 against any and all losses, claims, demands, costs, damages, liabilities, reasonable
expenses of any nature (including reasonable costs of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts, of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated
(collectively, “Liabilities”) arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which the Indemnified Party may be involved, or threatened to be
involved as a party or otherwise, and which relate to the Services provided hereunder (each, an “Action”), except to the extent the act or failure to act of the Indemnified Party (A) was not in good faith or not in a manner
such Indemnified Party believed to be in, or not contrary to, the best interests of Samson or its Affiliates or (B) constituted Malfeasance, and, provided further, that no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the
terms hereof with respect to any claim or dispute between the parties (or their Affiliates) relating to a breach by such Indemnified Party of the Engagement Letter or this Agreement, any other services agreement between RPM and its Affiliates and
Samson and its Affiliates, any non-compete agreement or any other agreement between such Indemnified Party and Samson or their respective Affiliates, or for any breach of any confidentiality obligation to a third party that is not at the express
direction of Samson. The termination of an action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, in and of itself, create a presumption or otherwise constitute evidence that the
Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, provided that a final, non-appealable judgment or order adverse to the Indemnified Party expressly covering the indemnification exceptions set forth in clauses (A) or
(B) above may constitute evidence that the Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification. The Indemnified Party will give Samson prompt written notice of any Action (in no event later than twenty (20) days from the Indemnified
Party’s knowledge of such Action), setting forth therein in reasonable detail the basis for such Action (and will provide Samson with available information on the Action and such other information with respect thereto that Samson may reasonably
request), and Samson shall have the right to undertake the defense of any Action brought by a third party by counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party will reasonably
cooperate with Samson in defending such Action. If Samson undertakes such defense in respect of such third party Action, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense,
separate from the counsel employed by Samson, it being understood that Samson shall control such defense and any settlement of the Action. 
 (c) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) above, reasonable and actual expenses incurred by an Indemnified Party in defending any Action for which indemnification is expressly granted pursuant
to this section shall be advanced by Samson prior to any judgment or settlement of such Action (but not during any appeal therefrom) entered by any court of competent jurisdiction which includes a finding that such Indemnified Party’s conduct
constituted Malfeasance or was otherwise not entitled to indemnification hereunder in respect thereof, but only if prior to making an advance Samson has received a written commitment by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party to repay such advances to
the extent that, and at such time as, it has been determined by a 

  
 3 

 final, non-appealable judgment or settlement entered by any court of competent jurisdiction
that (i) the act or failure to act of the Indemnified Party was not in good faith or not in a manner it believed to be in, or not contrary to, the best interests of Samson, or (ii) the Indemnified Party’s conduct constituted
Malfeasance. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Samson shall not be liable to any
Indemnified Party, and RPM and the other Indemnified Parties shall not be liable to Samson, for punitive, special, exemplary or consequential damages, including damages for loss of profits, loss of use or revenue or losses by reason of cost of
capital, arising out of or relating to the Engagement Letter or this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of whether based on contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, violation of any applicable deceptive
trade practices act or similar law or any other legal or equitable principle, and RPM and Samson hereby release each other from liability for any such damages; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any such damages that Samson,
RPM or any other Indemnified Party is required to pay to a third party and that is within the scope of the indemnification provided in Section 5(b) above. 
 (e) If there is a reasonable probability that an Action brought by a third party may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments,
the Indemnified Party shall have the absolute right, at its own cost and expense, to defend, compromise or settle such Action; provided, however, that if such Action is settled without Samson’s consent, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to
have waived all rights hereunder against Samson for Liabilities arising out of such Action. 
 (f) In the event
that any employee of RPM engages in Malfeasance, RPM shall, promptly upon senior executives of RPM having knowledge of such Malfeasance, (i) notify Samson and (ii) take appropriate action to discipline such employee and, if requested by
Samson and permissible in accordance with applicable law, terminate the employment of such employee, and RPM shall indemnify and reimburse Samson in full in cash for any liabilities, costs, expenses or losses incurred as a result of such Malfeasance
in performing the Services, including any cost incurred in the termination of employment and/or discipline of such employee or personnel. For the avoidance of doubt, any amount payable pursuant to this Section 6(f) shall be the sole
responsibility of RPM and shall not be charged to, or otherwise subject to reimbursement from, Samson. 
 (g) The
Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to subsection (b) to the extent that the subject matter of the Action for which indemnification is sought relates to services under or the performance or nonperformance of
any act concerning the activities of RPM or any Indemnified Party under any other services agreement (other than the Engagement Letter) between RPM and its Affiliates and Samson and its Affiliates or any other agreement with Samson or any of its
Affiliates. This subsection (g) shall not limit, restrict or otherwise affect any Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification pursuant to any other management services agreements or any other agreement with Samson or any of its
Affiliates.

 7. No Continuing Obligations by RPM. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, this Agreement does not impose any obligations on RPM to provide Services to Samson other than the Services which have been fully performed. If any additional services were to be provided by RPM to Samson in the future, such
services would be governed by a new agreement between the parties entered into in respect thereto. 
 For purposes of this
Agreement, “Malfeasance” means (i) with respect to RPM, any act or omission by it or its Affiliates (for this purpose only, not including employees, agents and subcontractors of RPM) which constitutes actual fraud, willful
misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith in connection with the activities under the Engagement Letter or this Agreement, or any Malfeasance of an employee, agent or subcontractor of RPM or its Affiliates that RPM, after obtaining knowledge of the
act or omission, and (ii) with respect to any Person other than RPM or any employee, agent or subcontractor of RPM or its Affiliates, either (a) any act or omission by it which constitutes fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad
faith in connection with the activities of such Person under the Engagement Letter or this Agreement or (b) any act or omission by such Person’s Affiliate which constitutes fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith in
connection with the activities under the Engagement Letter or this Agreement that occurred with the knowledge of such Person. 

For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means, in respect of a Person, each entity that, directly or indirectly,
controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Person. 
 For purposes of this Agreement,
“Person” means any individual, general partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, corporation, trust, business trust, cooperative, association, unincorporated organization or other entity.

 [NAME] 
 [ADDRESS] 

 

	 	Re:	Consulting Engagement  

 Dear [NAME]:

 This letter will confirm our agreement of the following matters: 

 

	1.	Engagement. RPM Energy Management LLC (“RPM”) and its employees served as a consultants and advisors to Samson Resources Corporation
(“Samson”) and its subsidiaries (together with Samson, the “Company”) pursuant to that certain engagement letter agreement dated December 21, 2011, between RPM and Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Co. L.P.
(“KKR”) (as amended, the “Engagement Letter”). Samson has assumed all obligations of KKR under the Engagement Letter. You (the “Consultant”), as a current or former employee of RPM, have personally assisted the Company
with optimizing and implementing the business and operating plan of the Company under the Engagement Letter and during the term of this agreement, as may be agreed upon by the Consultant and Samson in a writing executed by the Consultant and Samson
which expressly acknowledges such services are to be performed pursuant to the terms of this Consulting Agreement, the Consultant will perform and provide further services as may be agreed upon by the Consultant and Samson (such services that were
performed by the Consultant in its capacity as an employee of RPM pursuant to the Engagement Letter and any services performed under the terms of this Consulting Agreement after the date hereof, collectively, the “Services”). Samson hereby
acknowledges and agrees that any services provided by Consultant after the date hereof pursuant to the terms hereof shall only be deemed Services performed hereunder to the extent such services are expressly stated as such in a writing executed by
Samson and Consultant and, to the extent Consultant provides services to Samson after the date hereof in the course of Consultant performing his or her duties to his or her employer (which employer has been separately retained to provide such
services to Samson) then any such services performed by Consultant in the course of his or her employment shall not be deemed Services performed pursuant to the terms hereof. 

 

	2.	Term. 

 (a) This
Consulting Agreement is effective as of December 21, 2011, and will remain in effect until December 21, 2015 unless terminated on five (5) days written notice by the Company. 

(b) In addition, either party may terminate this Consulting Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other party in the event such
other party materially breaches this Consulting Agreement. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any of Section 2(a) or (b) above,
this Consulting Agreement shall terminate upon (i) a Change of Control (as defined below) or (ii) upon any event or series of events after which Samson is no longer an Affiliate of KKR. For purposes of this Consulting Agreement,
“Change of Control” means (i) the sale of all or substantially all (i.e., at least 80%) of the assets (in one 

 [NAME OF CONSULTANT]

 transaction or a series of related transactions) of Samson, a corporation controlled by
Affiliates of KKR, Itochu Corporation, Natural Gas Partners L.P. and Crestview Partner L.P. (together, the “Sponsors”) or Samson Investment Company (“SIC”), as applicable, to any “Person” (as such term is used for
purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or any successor act thereto) (or group of Persons acting in concert), other than to the Sponsors or their Affiliates; or (ii) a merger, recapitalization
or other sale (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) by Samson, the Sponsors or any of their respective Affiliates (which includes for the avoidance of doubt SIC), to a Person (or group of Persons acting in concert) of equity
interests or voting power that results in any Person (or group of Persons acting in concert) (other than the Sponsors or their Affiliates) owning more than 50% of the equity interests or voting power of Samson or SIC, as applicable (or any resulting
company after a merger). For the avoidance of doubt, none of an initial public offering, stock dividend, stock split or any other similar corporate event shall alone constitute a Change in Control. For purposes of this Section 2(c),
“Affiliate” means, in respect of a Person, each entity that, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Person. 
  

	3.	Consideration. As consideration for the Services rendered by the Consultant, Samson will issue to the Consultant [ ] options to purchase shares of common stock,
par value $0.01 per share, of Samson at a strike price of $5.00/share (the “Options”). 

  

	4.	Standard of Service. 

 (a)
The Consultant shall perform any Services agreed to by Samson and the Consultant under this Consulting Agreement in a professional and workman-like manner, and in accordance with any directions of Samson and in accordance with all applicable laws.

 (b) Other than with respect to the services provided as an employee of RPM or pursuant to the Amended and Restated Master
Management Services Agreement between KKR and RPM, dated as of October 15, 2012 or any similar agreement entered into pursuant to the terms thereof, if an engagement on behalf of another client of the Consultant would reasonably be expected to
(i) give rise to a conflict of interest in respect of the Consultant’s Services for the Company or (ii) result in the release of trade secrets or other proprietary or confidential information relating to the Company, the Consultant
shall not accept such engagement, unless, prior to accepting such engagement, the Consultant informs the Company of such other client, and such other engagement and the conflict of interest in reasonable detail, and a duly authorized officer of the
Company waives such conflict in writing. 
  

	5.	Compliance. 

 (a) The
Consultant represents and warrants that, other than with respect to the services provided pursuant to the Amended and Restated Master Management Services Agreement between KKR and RPM, dated as of October 15, 2012 or any similar agreement
entered into pursuant to the terms thereof, the Consultant is not subject to any contractual or other obligation that would limit or prohibit his ability to provide the Services contemplated by this agreement, including, without limitation, any
non-compete or other obligations that the Consultant may owe to any former employer or other third-party. The Consultant agrees that as the Consultant is engaged as a consultant to the Company pursuant to the terms of this agreement, the Consultant
shall not violate any law, regulation, agreement or other obligation the Consultant may be subject to or bound by from time to time.

governmental agency and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Consultant with respect to such laws is pending or, to the knowledge of the Consultant,

no more information than is so required in the opinion of competent legal counsel, and cooperates fully with any efforts by the Company to obtain a protective order or similar confidential treatment for such information. 

(b) “Confidential Information” means all confidential, proprietary or non-public information of, or concerning the business,
operations, activities, personnel, training, finances, actual or potential investments, plans, personal lives, habits, history, compensation, clients, investors, business associations, know-how, business methods or otherwise of, (i) the Company
(including but not limited to the Company’s parents and subsidiaries), and (ii) any director, officer, employee, member, partner, client, investor or business associate of the Company. Confidential Information expressly includes, without

Company’s option, destroy, delete or expunge, all originals and copies of any Confidential Information and Work Product in any form or medium in his possession or control, (iii) cooperate with the Company regarding the delivery or
destruction of any other Confidential Information or Work Product of which the Consultant is aware, and (iv) certify the Consultant’s compliance to the Company in writing with the foregoing matters. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Consultant agrees the Consultant will not, and the Company acknowledges that the
Consultant will not, disclose to the Company any confidential information that the Consultant is prohibited by applicable law, contract or fiduciary obligation from disclosing. 

 

	7.	Works Made for Hire. The Consultant agrees that all work and deliverables that the Consultant prepares on behalf of the Company and its subsidiaries during the
term of this Consulting Agreement, including but not limited to notes, drafts, scripts, documents, designs, inventions, data, presentations, research results, developments, reports, processes, programs and other materials, and all rights and
intellectual property rights thereunder (collectively, “Work Product”), are works-made-for-hire owned exclusively by the Company. The Consultant hereby assigns to the Company any rights the Consultant may have in such Work Product and

 (b) The Consultant shall be responsible for all taxes and other expenses arising from
the rendition of Services hereunder by the Consultant to the Company. 
 (c) Nothing in this Consulting Agreement shall be deemed
to constitute a partnership, joint venture, or fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Consultant. The Consultant is not authorized to act as the Company’s agent or representative, and the Consultant agrees that the Consultant will
not make any statement, representation or warranty to the contrary or commit the Company to any course of action with respect to third parties without the prior written consent of the Company. 

 

	9.	Survival. Notwithstanding Section 2 or any other provision in this Consulting Agreement to the contrary, no termination of this Consulting Agreement will
affect the matters set out in Sections 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of this Consulting Agreement, or any sub-articles to said Sections, all of which shall survive indefinitely after the termination of this Consulting Agreement, or Section 4(c), which
shall survive the termination of this Consulting Agreement to the extent contemplated by such section. 

  

	10.	Miscellaneous. The Consultant may not assign, subcontract or delegate any part of this Consulting Agreement without the Company’s prior written approval.
Any assignment, subcontract or delegation without the Company’s prior written approval is null and void. The Company may assign any part of this Consulting Agreement to any parent or subsidiary of the Company without the consent of the
Consultant; provided that the Company shall remain obligated for the performance of this Consulting Agreement by such parent or subsidiary. This Consulting Agreement contains the entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings with respect thereto. This Consulting Agreement may not be amended except by a writing executed by each of the parties hereto. If any part of this Consulting Agreement is found to be
unenforceable, the rest of this Consulting Agreement will remain in full force and effect, and the unenforceable part will be reformed to give the greatest effect to the parties’ original intent. Any waiver of, or consent pursuant to, any
provision of this Consulting Agreement must be in writing and is effective only to the extent specifically set forth therein. No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or any other right hereunder. References to “herein,” “hereto” or words of similar import refer to the entire Consulting Agreement and not to only
one provision. References to the pronoun “his” shall also refer to “her” or “its” as the context may require. Any rule of construction based on the identity of the party who drafted this Consulting Agreement shall be
disregarded. This Consulting Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. In case of any conflict between this Consulting Agreement
and any statement of work, invoice or other document delivered in connection hereto, this Consulting Agreement shall prevail unless specifically referenced in a document signed by both parties to amend this Consulting Agreement.

  

	11.	Governing Law. This Consulting Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas (without regard to the conflict
of law provisions that would apply the laws of another jurisdiction). Each party hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state courts of, and the federal courts located in the State of Texas for any action, suit or proceeding brought with respect
to any matter concerning this Consulting Agreement. Each party waives any objection that venue in such courts is for any reason improper or inconvenient. Each party waives the right to a trial by jury for any action, suit or proceeding brought with
respect to any matter concerning this Consulting

 Agreement. The Consultant acknowledges that damages for any breach of certain provisions
of this Consulting Agreement would be difficult to determine and inadequate to remedy the harm caused to the Company, and the Consultant agrees that the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms of Sections 6 and 7 and other
provisions of this Consulting Agreement, in addition to any other remedy that may be available at law or equity.
