TAX SHARING AGREEMENT

This Tax Sharing Agreement is effective as of May 31, 2018, between Caterpillar Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as "Caterpillar Tractor Co."

Recitals
Whereas, the parties previously entered into a written Tax Sharing Agreement as of June 21, 1984 (as amended and restated, from time to time, the "Existing Tax Sharing Agreement");
Whereas, the Existing Tax Sharing Agreement provides that amounts due thereunder are to be paid or collected within forty-five (45) days from the date Cat Inc. makes payment to or collects a refund from the Internal Revenue Service; 
Whereas, the Parties recognize that it is administratively burdensome and unnecessary for payments to be made under the Existing Tax Sharing Agreement more than once annually, and wish to amend the Existing Tax Sharing Agreement to provide for only one annual payment to be made;
Whereas, the Parties desire that the terms of this Tax Sharing Agreement amend and supersede the terms of the Existing Tax Sharing Agreement; and
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.CFSC consents to the filing of consolidated federal income tax returns with Cat Inc., the common parent corporation of an affiliated group of corporations, for taxable years ending after the date hereof.
2.Cat Inc., as agent for the affiliated groups, agrees to handle all necessary transactions with the Internal Revenue Service or appeals to the courts for a final determination of the tax liability. As agent, Cat Inc. will be responsible for filing the consolidated federal income tax returns and reports, making all tax payments when due (including interest and penalties if applicable) and filing for and collecting any refunds due (together with interest thereon).

1

3.Cat Inc. will collect from or pay to CFSC its (CFSC's) allocated share of the consolidated federal income tax liability and/or refund, including interest and penalties if applicable, with respect to any period for which Cat Inc. files a consolidated federal income tax return that includes CFSC.
4.Amounts due under Paragraph 3 will be paid or collected within forty-five (45) days of the filing of Cat Inc.’s consolidated federal income tax return and such annual payment shall take into account any refunds received during the previous calendar year.
5.Except as provided in Paragraph 3, Cat Inc. agrees to indemnify and hold harmless CFSC against and from any Internal Revenue Service claims of liability for federal income tax, interest and/or penalties with respect to any period for which Cat Inc. files a consolidated federal income tax return that includes CFSC.
6.The allocation under Paragraph 3 shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Treas. Reg. sections 1.1552-1(a)(1) and 1.1502-33(d)(3), under which the Cat Inc. consolidated group has elected one-hundred percent (100%) as the fixed percentage to be used to allocate the additional amounts thereunder; provided, however, with respect to foreign tax credits associated with tax liabilities of any CFSC subsidiary that is a party to a tax sharing agreement with a Cat Inc. subsidiary, the relevant fixed percentage shall equal the percentage of tax liability specified in such tax sharing agreement (to the extent actually paid to such Cat Inc. subsidiary by the CFSC subsidiary) - in other words, CFSC shall be entitled to foreign tax credits equal to the amount actually paid during the applicable period to Cat Inc. subsidiaries by CFSC subsidiaries under applicable tax sharing agreements. Any additional amounts allocated under Treas. Reg. section 1.1502-33(d)(3) shall be credited to those members of the consolidated group (including CFSC) contributing the items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit to which the sum of such additional amounts are attributable, in accordance with Treas. Reg. section 1.1502-33(d)(3). The amount credited to each such member shall be determined by multiplying the total amount to be credited by a fraction, the numerator of which is the separate tax liability of such member, and the denominator of which is the sum of the separate tax liabilities of all members receiving credits. For this purpose "separate tax liability" means the tax liability of a member (calculated using such member's specific tax attributes) determined as if a separate tax return were filed by such member on which all tax credits 

2

generated by such member were permitted without limitation and on which the tax liability before tax credits of a member incurring a loss for the year would be that refundable amount determined by computing a tax on such loss in the same manner as if the member had taxable income of an equal amount.
7.The amounts allocated pursuant to Paragraph 3 shall be appropriately recomputed upon the filing of an amended tax return, final determination of any adjustment to the federal income tax liability of the Cat Inc. affiliated group proposed by the Internal Revenue Service, or receipt of a refund of tax previously paid.
8.In the event of any material change in applicable tax law, the parties shall amend this Agreement mutatis mutandis by mutual written agreement.
9.The provisions of Paragraphs 1 through 7 shall be applied mutatis mutandis with respect to all state or local franchise or income tax returns filed by Cat Inc. and CFSC upon which losses or credits of Cat Inc. or CFSC can be used to offset income or tax of the other, except where it is mutually agreed that the amounts owed by one party to the other are insignificant.
10.This Agreement may not be modified or otherwise amended except in writing signed by both parties hereto. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the law of the State of Illinois without regard to the principles of conflicts of law.  Unless otherwise stated, any reference contained in this Agreement to a Paragraph refers to the provisions. of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement this 15th day of June 2018.

CALLON PETROLEUM COMPANY
2018 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

THIS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is effective as of ______________,______ (the “Grant Date”), by and between Callon Petroleum Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ____________________ (the “Grantee”).

The Company has adopted the Callon Petroleum Company 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as effective May 10, 2018 (as may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), which by this reference is made a part hereof, for the benefit of eligible employees, directors and independent contractors of the Company and its Subsidiaries.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Plan.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Board, which has generally been assigned responsibility for administering the Plan with respect to awards made to Nonemployee Directors, has determined that it would be in the interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant the restricted stock units provided herein in order to provide Grantee with additional remuneration for services rendered, to encourage Grantee to remain in the service of the Company as a Nonemployee Director and to increase Grantee’s personal interest in the continued success and progress of the Company.

The Company and Grantee therefore agree as follows:

1.Grant of Restricted Stock Units.  Subject to the terms and conditions herein, effective as of the Grant Date, the Company hereby awards to the Grantee, pursuant to the Plan, a right to receive __________ shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share (“Restricted Stock Units”).

2.Vesting Schedule and Settlement.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3 hereof, the Restricted Stock Units shall vest on the first anniversary of the Grant Date or, if earlier, the date of the Company’s __________ Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Vesting Date”); provided that the Grantee remains in continuous service as a Nonemployee Director with the Company through the Vesting Date. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change in Control while the Grantee remains in continuous service as a Nonemployee Director with the Company, all unvested Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest and such occurrence shall be deemed a Vesting Date for purposes of this Agreement.

As soon as practicable but in no event later than thirty (30) days following the occurrence of the Vesting Date or vesting pursuant to Section 3, the Company shall deliver to the Grantee or, as applicable, the Grantee’s legal representative, estate, beneficiary or heir, certificates representing the applicable number shares of Common Stock or cause the applicable number of shares of Common Stock to be evidenced in book entry form in the Grantee’s name in the stock register of the Company maintained by the Company’s transfer agent.

3.Termination of Service; Forfeiture. 

(a)Death and Disability. Upon termination of the Grantee’s service as a Nonemployee Director with the Company as a result of the death or Disability of the Grantee, the Restricted Stock Units shall

immediately vest. For purposes hereof, “Disability” shall mean the physical or mental inability of Grantee to carry out the normal and usual duties of his or her position on a full-time basis for an entire period of six (6) continuous months together with the reasonable likelihood, as determined by the Board (excluding Grantee), that Grantee, upon the advice of a qualified physician, will be unable to carry out the normal and usual duties of his or her position.

(b)Retirement. If the Grantee’s service as a Nonemployee Director with the Company is terminated as a result of the Grantee’s retirement, the Board (excluding Grantee) may determine, in its sole discretion that the Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest.

(c)Forfeiture. Upon termination of the Grantee’s service as a Nonemployee Director of the Company for any reason other than due to death or Disability, all Restricted Stock Units that have not previously vested shall be immediately forfeited to the Company.

4.No Ownership Rights Prior to Issuance of Shares of Common Stock; Dividend Equivalents.  Neither the Grantee nor any other person shall become the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units, nor have any rights of a shareholder (including, without limitation, dividend and voting rights) with respect to any such shares of Common Stock, unless and until and after such shares of Common Stock have been delivered to the Grantee as described in Section 2.

Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to the same vesting schedule as the underlying Restricted Stock Units and shall be payable in cash at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units are settled pursuant to Section 2.

5.Restrictions Imposed by Law.  Without limiting the generality of Section 16 of the Plan, the Grantee agrees that the Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock if counsel to the Company determines that such delivery would violate any applicable law or any rule or regulation of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of, or agreement of the Company with, any securities exchange or association upon which the Common Stock is listed or quoted.  The Company shall in no event be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock to comply with any such law, rule, regulation or agreement.
