tax purposes and its initial fair market value. Any elections or decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the General Partner in any manner
that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. If the Partnership accepts property that is encumbered with indebtedness which constitutes a Partnership Nonrecourse Liability, such indebtedness shall be allocated to the
contributing Partner in an amount equal to the excess of such indebtedness over the adjusted tax basis of the contributed property. Any reduction in the excess of such indebtedness over the tax basis of such property shall be treated as a net
decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain under subsection (d)(ii) of this Section 6.1, and in accordance with that subsection, gross income and gain shall be allocated to the contributing Partner in an amount equal to such reduction. To the extent
such indebtedness constitutes a Partner Nonrecourse debt or is otherwise recourse to the contributing Partner (or its affiliates), such indebtedness shall be allocated to the contributing Partner in an amount equal to the portion of such
indebtedness for which such contributing Partner has the economic risk of loss. Any reduction in the excess of such indebtedness over the tax basis of such property shall be treated as a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain under
subsection (d)(iii) of this Section 6.1, and in accordance with that subsection, gross income and gain shall be allocated to the contributing Partner in an amount equal to such reduction. 
 (ii) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations, notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 6.1, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Adjustment Period, each Partner shall be specially allocated items of gross income and gain for such period (and, if necessary,
subsequent periods) in an amount equal to such Partner’s share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(g) of the Regulations. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be
made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2) of the Regulations. This
Section 6.1(c)(ii) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. 
 (iii) Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.1, if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any period, each Partner who has a share of the Partner Nonrecourse
Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Regulations, shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such Adjustment Period (and, if
necessary, subsequent Adjustment Periods) in an amount equal to such Partner’s share of the

Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance

therewith. 
 (iv) Qualified Income Offset. If any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations,
or distributions described in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5) or Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6) of the Regulations, items of Partnership income and gain shall
be specially allocated to each such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Capital Account deficit (determined in accordance with the rules set forth in
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) of such Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.1(c)(iv) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have an Capital Account deficit
(determined in accordance with the rules set forth in Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) after all other allocations provided for in this Section 6.1(c)(iv) have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.1(c)(iv) were not in the
Agreement. 
 (v) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any period shall be specially allocated
among the Partners in proportion to their Percentages. 
 (vi) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Partner
Nonrecourse Deductions for any period shall be specially allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with

 (vii) Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to
the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Partner in complete liquidation of such Partner’s Partnership Interests, the amount of such
adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in proportion
to their Percentages in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Partner to whom such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4)

reissued during a Fiscal Year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Person who was the holder of such Percentage Interest during such Fiscal Year, in proportion to the number of days that each such Person was recognized as the owner of such
Percentage Interest during such Fiscal year or in any other proportion permitted by the Code and selected by the General Partner, without regard to results of Partnership operations during the period in which each such Person was recognized as the

 ARTICLE VIII 
 TRANSFERABILITY AND WITHDRAWAL OF PARTNERS 
 8.1. General Partner. 
 (a) The General Partner shall not resign or withdraw from the Partnership as General Partner without (i) the approval, written consent or
ratification of all the Limited Partners, (ii) providing one or more successor General Partners in accordance with Section 8.1(c) (to whom the resigning General Partner shall assign its interest as General Partner in the Partnership), and
(iii) delivering to the Partnership an opinion of the Partnership’s counsel that such resignation or withdrawal would not subject the Partnership to federal income taxation as an association taxable as a corporation and not as a
Partnership (a “Permitted Withdrawal”). The withdrawing General Partner shall receive upon such withdrawal an amount equal to the balance of its Capital Account as of the end of the month in which such permitted withdrawal takes place
(based on an unaudited interim closing of the Partnership’s books as of the end of such month), such payment to be made promptly following the end of such month. The withdrawing General Partner shall not participate thereafter in any Profits
and Losses of the Partnership accruing after the date of resignation or withdrawal or have any rights and powers of a General Partner hereunder. No General Partner may dispose of its Percentage Interest in the Partnership except to a successor
general partner. 
 (b) Any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if the General Partner resigns or withdraws
from the Partnership in violation of this Agreement, it shall not in respect of such resignation or withdrawal be entitled to the return of, or any payment in respect of, its Capital Contribution, and shall not be entitled to continue to participate
in any Profits and Losses of the Partnership accruing after the date of such resignation or withdrawal or have any other rights and powers of a General Partner hereunder. In the event of such resignation or withdrawal by the General Partner, the
Limited Partners, acting pursuant to Section 10.1, shall elect whether to carry on the business of the Partnership by election of one or more substitute General Partners. A General Partner shall be liable in damages to the Limited Partners if
it resigns or withdraws from the Partnership in contravention of any of the aforementioned provisions. 
 (c) A General Partner may not
transfer any or all of its Percentage Interest in the Partnership in a manner which will result in the “termination” of the Partnership under Section 708 of the Code or constitute an event of default (or an event which, upon notice of
the passage of time, or both, would constitute a default) under any agreement or instrument by which the Partnership borrowed money or by which its property is encumbered, or which would result in the General Partner (or its successor) owning a
Percentage Interest in the Partnership of less than one percent (1%), and any attempt to do so shall be null and void. 
  

 - 20 - 

 (d) If the General Partner or an Affiliate of the General Partner acquires a Percentage Interest as a
Limited Partner, such purchaser shall, with respect to such Percentage Interest, enjoy all of the rights and be subject to all of the obligations and duties of a Limited Partner to the extent of such Percentage Interest. 
 (e) The General Partner may be removed only if the General Partner commits fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of its duties
and obligations as a General Partner or the General Partner willfully breaches the provisions of this Agreement. In the event of the General Partner’s removal, the General Partner’s interest in the future profits of the Partnership shall
cease and it shall have only the right to receive a return of its capital upon dissolution. 
 8.2. Transfer of Limited Partner’s
Interest. 
 (a) General. Except as set forth in this Agreement, no Limited Partner shall Transfer to another Person any portion of
a Partnership Interest without the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be withheld for any reason. In addition, a Transfer of a Partnership Interest may not be effected unless and until the General Partner shall have received on behalf
of the Partnership a document (i) signed by the Person to whom the Partnership Interest or part thereof is transferred and by the Partner effecting the transfer, (ii) containing the agreement of such Person to be bound by this Agreement in
respect of the Partnership Interest or part thereof being retained and (iii) setting forth the Percentage Interest of the Partner effecting the Transfer and the Person to which the Partnership Interest or part thereof is transferred. Any
attempted Transfer by a Partner of a Partnership Interest or right included therein, other than in accordance with this Section shall be, and is hereby declared, null and void ab initio. 
 (b) Transferee Note a Partner. Notwithstanding section 8.2(a) above, any Partner may Transfer its Economic Interest to any Person. Except as
specifically provided herein, no Person acquiring a Partnership Interest from a Partner or an unadmitted assign of a Partner (other than a Partner), shall become a Partner unless such Person is approved by written consent of the General Partner. If
no such approval is obtained, such Person’s Partnership Interest shall only entitle such Person to receive the distributions and allocations of Profits and Losses to which the Partner from whom or which such Person received such Partnership
Interest would be entitled. Any such approval may be subject to any terms and conditions imposed by the Partners. 
 (c) Effective
Date. Any sale of a Partnership Interest or admission of a Partner pursuant to this Article shall be deemed effective as of the last day of the calendar month in which such sale or admission occurs. 
  

 - 21 - 

 8.3. Exceptions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1, any Limited Partner may
Transfer all or any portion of a Partnership Interest without the consent of the General Partner to such Partner’s spouse and or descendants or to a trust for the benefit of such Partner’s spouse or descendants or to a family partnership
made up of the Limited Partners spouse and/or direct descendants. Such Transfer of a Partnership Interest may not be effected unless and until the General Partner receives on behalf of the Partnership a document prepared and executed as described by
section 8.1(a)(i) through 8.1(a)(iii). The Transferee shall become a Partner without further action by the General Partner. 
 8.4

any Partnership Interest in the Partnership shall be entitled to receive distributions of cash or other property from the Partnership and to receive allocations of the income, gains, credits, deductions, profits and losses of the Partnership
attributable to such Interest after the effective date of the assignment. The “effective date” of an assignment of a Partnership Interest in the Partnership under the provisions of this Section 8.4, except as otherwise consented to by
the General Partner, shall be the day next following receipt by the General Partner of written notice of assignment and fulfillment of all conditions precedent to such assignment provided for in this Agreement. 
 8.5 Satisfactory Written Assignment Required. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, both the Partnership and the General Partner shall
be entitled to treat the assignor of an Interest in the Partnership as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions made in good faith to him or her, until such time as a written assignment that conforms
to the requirements of this Article 8 has been received by, accepted and recorded on the books of, the Partnership. 
 8.6 Substituted
Limited Partner. In addition to the requirements of Section 8.2, and subject to the exceptions of 8.3, the assignee of any Interest in the Partnership may become a substituted Limited Partner in place of his or her assignor upon the written
consent of the General Partner, which consent may be withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner, and in any event will not be given unless all of the following conditions are satisfied: 
 (a) a duly executed and acknowledged written instrument of assignment, being either a certificate evidencing the Interest in the
Partnership owned by the assignor prior to such assignment or some other instrument approved by the General Partner, is filed with the Partnership setting forth the intention of the assignor that the assignee become a substituted Limited Partner in
his or her place; 
  

 - 22 - 

 (b) the assignee executes an irrevocable Power of Attorney, satisfactory to the General
Partner, appointing the General Partner as the assignee’s lawful attorney-in-fact for the purposes specified in Article 13; 
 (c) the assignor and assignee execute and acknowledge such other instruments, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, as the General Partner may deem necessary or desirable to effect such substitution; 
 (d) prior to the substitution, the substituted Limited Partner pays all reasonable expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred by the
Partnership in connection with such assignment and substitution; and 
 (e) if requested by the General Partner, an opinion
from counsel to the assignee (which counsel and opinion shall be satisfactory to counsel for the General Partner) is furnished to the Partnership stating that, in the opinion of said counsel, such substitution would not jeopardize the status of the
Partnership as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, or cause a termination of the Partnership for the purposes of the then applicable provisions of the Code, or violate, or cause the Partnership to violate, any applicable law or
governmental rule or regulation, including without limitation, any applicable federal or state securities law. 
 By executing this Agreement
each Limited Partner shall be deemed to have consented to any substitution of an assignee in the place and stead of an assigning Limited Partner if permitted by the General partner. 
 8.7 Substitution Required for Vote. Unless and until an assignee of a Partnership Interest in the Partnership becomes a substituted Limited
Partner, such assignee shall not be entitled to exercise any vote with respect to such Partnership Interest. 
 8.8 Amendment of
Certificate of Limited Partnership. The General Partner shall, at least once each Partnership year, cause the Certificate to be amended, if appropriate, to reflect the substitution of Limited Partners. 
 8.9 Involuntary Withdrawal of a Limited Partner. The Involuntary Withdrawal of a Limited Partner shall not cause a dissolution of the Partnership,
but the rights of such Limited Partner to share in the Profits and Losses of the Partnership, to receive distributions and to assign his or her Partnership Interest in the Partnership pursuant to Section 8.2 or cause the substitution of a
substitute Limited Partner pursuant to Section 8.6 shall, on the happening of such an event, devolve on his or her successor in interest, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the Partnership shall, continue as a limited
partnership. Such successor, however, shall become a substituted Limited Partner only as provided in Section 8.5 with respect to an assignee of a Limited Partner’s Interest in the Partnership. The successor of the Limited Partner shall be
liable for all the obligations of the withdrawn Limited Partner.

 9.1. Amendments. The amendment procedures with regards to this Agreement
are as follows:

adopted and effective only if it receives the consent of the Partners owning seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the Percentage Interests in the Partnership then outstanding; provided however, that no such amendment shall be enforceable
against any Partner if (i) the effect of the amendment would be to increase the capital contributions required of that Partner, or reduce the rights and interest of that Partner in the income, gains, deductions, credits or income tax
allocations of the Partnership, the voting rights of that Partner or the rights of that Partner respecting liquidation of the Partnership (other than reductions required as a consequence of Section 3.2), unless the Partner shall have consented
to the adoption of such amendment, (ii) such amendment would cause any Partner to incur liability for any liabilities, contracts or obligations of the Partnership in excess of such Partner’s Capital Contributions, or (iii) such
amendment would directly or indirectly affect or jeopardize the status of the Partnership as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. 
 (b) Within fifteen (15) days of the making of any proposal to amend this Agreement, the General Partner shall give the Partners notification of such proposal (including the text of any amendment or document and a statement of its
purposes). Any matter requiring the consent of the Partners may be considered at a meeting of the Partners held not less than fifteen (15) and not more than thirty (30) days after notification to the Partners of any proposal. Any consent
required by this Section 9.1 shall mean either the written consent of a Partner, or the affirmative vote of such Partner at a meeting duly called and held pursuant to this Agreement, as the case may be, to do the act or thing for which the
consent is solicited, or the act of granting such consent as the context may require. Any consent required by this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given only when the General Partner has actually received the required written consents of
Partners to the act or thing for which the consent was solicited or after the required affirmative vote of Partners to the act or thing at a meeting called to consider the same. Any consent so given will be nullified if a written nullification by a
Partner of such consent is actually received by the General Partner prior to the time such proposed act or thing is actually done.

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Rex Energy Operating Corp. (Borrower), a Delaware corporation
with an office at 1975 Waddle Road, State College, Pennsylvania 16803, promises to pay to the order of Lance T. Shaner (the “Holder”), on demand the principal sum of $50,000.00 in lawful money of the United States. 
 The undersigned promises to pay interest on the balance of said principal sum remaining unpaid at a rate that shall at all times be equal to 7% per
annum. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year. 
 If the payment under this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday
or public holiday under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. Payments
received will be applied to charges, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), accrued interest and principal and in that order. 
 This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part. Any partial prepayment shall be applied to the principal payable under this Note. Any payment not received by the Holder within fifteen (15) calendar days after its due date shall be
subject to a late payment charge equal to two percent (2%) of the amount of the overdue interest. 
 If any payment under this Note is
not paid when due, and such failure continues for a period of fifteen (15) days after the undersigned receives written notice of nonpayment from the Holder, then the Holder may, at the Holder’s sole option, declare the entire unpaid
portion of this Note and all sums payable hereunder to be immediately due and payable. 
 The entire unpaid portion of this Note and all sums
payable hereunder shall automatically become immediately due if the undersigned shall make any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any petition or proceeding for any relief under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency,
receivership, liquidation or dissolution law or statute now in effect or hereafter in effect (whether at law or in equity) is filed or commenced by or against the undersigned, or if any trustee or receiver is appointed for the undersigned, and such
assignment, petition, proceeding or appointment is not cured within sixty (60) days thereafter. In the event of the bankruptcy of the undersigned, interest shall continue to accrue. 

 The undersigned promises to pay all costs and expenses incurred by the Holder in collecting this Note and
enforcing Holder’s rights hereunder, including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Holder. 
 Presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest are hereby waived by the undersigned. 
 Failure or delay
by the Holder in exercising, or a single or partial exercise of, any power or right hereunder shall not operate as a waiver thereof or of any other power or right or preclude any other future exercise of that or any other power or right. A waiver of
any power or right hereunder shall be in writing, shall be limited to the specific instance and shall not be deemed a waiver of the subject power or right in the future or a waiver of any other power or right. 
 This Note shall be specifically enforceable by and shall inure to the benefit of the Holder and Holder’s heirs, legal representatives, successors
and assignees and shall be binding upon the undersigned and the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assignees. This Note may not be modified or terminated orally or by any course of conduct but only by an agreement in
writing duly executed by the undersigned and the Holder. 
 This Note is delivered in the State of Pennsylvania and shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of that State.
