TRANSFER OF EMPLOYEES TO THE GENERAL PARTNER 

Section 2.1 Selection of Employees and Offer of Employment. 

(a) No later than thirty (30) days prior to the Transfer Date, or such later date as shall be mutually agreed by
Chesapeake Management and the General Partner (the “Offer Date”), the General Partner may provide an offer of employment to those Seconded Employees (other than Removed Employees) whom it desires to hire, such offer to become
effective on the applicable Transfer Date. Each such offer shall include base salary or hourly base wages, as applicable, that shall not be less than that paid to the offered Seconded Employee immediately prior to the Transfer Date and other
compensation and benefits that, in the aggregate, are substantially comparable to those provided to such Seconded Employee or in which he was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Transfer Date. Chesapeake Management shall, immediately
prior to the Transfer Date, terminate the employment of all Transferred Employees and shall cooperate with and use their commercially reasonable efforts to assist the General Partner in its efforts to secure satisfactory employment arrangements with
such Seconded Employees to whom the General Partner makes an offer. Effective as of the Transfer Date, Chesapeake Management shall take such actions as are necessary to cause the active participation of each Transferred Employee under the Benefit
Plans to cease. 
 (b) Subject to Section 2.1, the General Partner will not, and will use reasonable
efforts to cause its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives not to, discuss potential employment with or hire any employee of Chesapeake Management or any Affiliate of Chesapeake Management (other than CMV, the General Partner,
the MLP and their Subsidiaries), other than a Seconded Employee, without the prior consent of Chesapeake Management or its Affiliate that employs such employee. Chesapeake Management will not, and will use reasonable efforts to cause its officers,
directors, employees, agents and representatives not to, at any time, discuss continued employment following the proposed Transfer Date with any Seconded Employee provided an offer in accordance with Section 2.1(a) or hire any
Transferred Employees without the prior written consent of the General Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Chesapeake Management nor any of its Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) will hire a
Seconded Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee because the Seconded Employee failed to accept a satisfactory offer under Section 2.1 (other than one requiring a Geographic Relocation) until more than nine (9) months
after such rejection occurs. 
 ARTICLE III 

COMPENSATION 

Section 3.1 Compensation Generally. 

(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.1(a), 3.1(b) and 3.1(c) and Article IV of this
Agreement, for a period of not less than twelve (12) months after the Transfer Date, the General Partner shall maintain base salary or hourly base wages, as applicable, for each of the Transferred Employees that shall not be less than that paid
to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Transfer Date and other compensation and benefits for such Transferred 
  

 6 

 
Employee that, in the aggregate, are substantially comparable to those in effect immediately prior to the Transfer Date. However, nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Transferred
Employee any right to continued employment with the General Partner, the MLP or its Subsidiaries, nor shall anything herein interfere with the right of the General Partner to relocate or terminate the employment of any of the Transferred Employees
at any time after the Transfer Date or to withdraw an offer provided in accordance with Section 2.1(a) prior to the applicable Transfer Date. 

(b) Subject to the General Partner’s reimbursement obligations under the Secondment Agreement and
Section 4.2(b), Chesapeake Management shall retain all obligations and liability for wages, salary, overtime pay, bonuses, incentive pay, other cash compensation and employee benefits of the Seconded Employees attributable to periods
before the Transfer Date. Effective as of the Transfer Date, the General Partner shall assume and be solely responsible for (a) all accrued but unused vacation (including carry-over vacation) and sick leave entitlements, if applicable, of
Transferred Employees attributable to periods before the Transfer Date and (b) all wages, salary, overtime pay, bonuses, incentive pay, vacation pay, sick pay, other cash compensation and employee benefits of Transferred Employees attributable
to the period beginning on the Transfer Date. 
 (c) The General Partner shall, for a period of not less than
twelve (12) months following the Transfer Date, maintain a severance policy or program covering Transferred Employees who are involuntarily terminated by the General Partner without cause as part of a reduction in force. The terms, conditions
and benefit levels of such policy or program shall be determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion; provided, however, that to the extent that service is a factor in determining eligibility for and calculating the amount of
benefits under such policy or program, the service taken into account by the General Partner shall include service to the General Partner and service to Chesapeake Management and its Affiliates and predecessor entities to the extent recognized under
the Benefit Plans. 
 ARTICLE IV 

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS 

Section 4.1 Employee Benefits Generally. 

(a) Neither the employment transfers of Transferred Employees nor any of the other actions contemplated by this Agreement
shall cause CMV, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries to become a participating employer in any Benefit Plan. Subject to the General Partner’s reimbursement obligations under the Secondment Agreement, Chesapeake Management
and its Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) shall remain solely responsible for all obligations and Liabilities arising under the express terms of the Benefit Plans, and none of CMV, the General Partner,
the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries shall assume any Benefit Plan or have any obligations or Liabilities arising under the express terms of the Benefit Plans, in each case except for cost reimbursement pursuant to the Secondment Agreement and as
specifically provided in Section 4.3 below. 
 (b) From and after the Transfer Date, the General
Partner shall adopt and maintain such compensation arrangements and employee benefit plans, programs, policies and 
  

 7 

 
arrangements as shall be determined by the General Partner or its Subsidiaries from time to time in the General Partner’s sole discretion (the “General Partner
Plans”). Pursuant to the Services Agreement, Chesapeake Management shall provide the General Partner with certain transition assistance to enable the General Partner to develop, implement and administer its compensation and benefit
plans and programs. 
 (c) With respect to each General Partner Plan, the General Partner shall, subject to
applicable Law, grant to the Transferred Employees eligible to participate in such General Partner Plan credit for the past service Chesapeake Management and its Affiliates and predecessor entities recognized under a similar Benefit Plan for the
following: (i) vesting and eligibility purposes under any General Partner Plans in which they are or may become eligible to participate (except with respect to any equity-based plan(s)) and (ii) determining the duration and amount of their
benefits under any sick pay, vacation or paid time off or severance policy maintained by the General Partner in which they are or may become eligible to participate. 

(d) Without limiting the rights of the Parties under any other provision of this Agreement, Chesapeake Management may
terminate any or all of its obligations under this Agreement, upon prior written notice of not less than ninety (90) days to the General Partner, if, and only if, Chesapeake Management or any of its Affiliates ceases to own and control,
directly or indirectly, any equity interests or voting power of CMV; provided, however, that such termination shall not affect or relieve any obligations of any acquirer of or successor to Chesapeake Management’s or its Affiliates’
assets, business, interests or voting power (whether by contract, operation of law or otherwise), and Chesapeake Management shall require any such successor to assume and agree to perform the obligations of Chesapeake Management under this
Agreement. 
 Section 4.2 Equity Incentive Compensation. 

(a) With respect to any restricted stock awards granted to Transferred Employees under the Chesapeake Equity Incentive
Plans prior to the Transfer Date, Chesapeake Management shall take such actions as may be necessary to permit each Transferred Employee who has an outstanding restricted stock award under such Chesapeake Equity Incentive Plans as of the Transfer
Date to continue to vest in any such awards that are not fully vested as of the Transfer Date based on service to the General Partner, the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries. Further, with respect to any options granted to Transferred Employees under
the Chesapeake Equity Incentive Plans prior to the Transfer Date, Chesapeake Management shall take such actions as may be necessary to permit each Transferred Employee to continue to exercise such options in accordance with the agreements governing
such options notwithstanding his or her transfer of employment to the General Partner, the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries as of the Transfer Date; provided, however, that such transfer of employment shall not be treated as a termination of
employment for purposes of applying the provisions of option agreements and the Chesapeake Equity Incentive Plans regarding exercises following a termination of employment, and such provisions shall be applied with all references to a termination of
employment with Chesapeake Management and its Affiliates replaced with references to a termination of employment with the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries; provided, however, that no such option shall be exercisable beyond the
earlier of the expiration of its original term or 10 years from the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chesapeake and its Affiliates (other 

 

 8 

 
than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) shall remain solely responsible for administering the Chesapeake Equity Incentive Plans and all restricted stock awards, stock
options and other equity-based awards subject to the Chesapeake Equity Incentive Plans including, without limitation, all tax withholding and reporting obligations under applicable Laws, provided, that the General Partner shall provide Chesapeake
notice of any Transferred Employee’s termination of employment with the General Partner, the MLP and its Subsidiaries after the Transfer Date. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that any restricted stock awards granted to
Transferred Employees under the Chesapeake Equity Incentive Plans prior to the Transfer Date vest on or following the Transfer Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2(a) while the Transferred Employee is employed by the
General Partner, the MLP or one of its Subsidiaries (such vesting, “Post Transfer Vesting”), the General Partner shall reimburse Chesapeake for the costs and expenses associated with such vesting, calculated as set forth in
this Section 4.2(b). The costs and expense calculated with respect to the vesting of each share restricted stock shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the per share closing trading price of Chesapeake’s common stock on the date
of grant or (ii) the per share closing trading price of Chesapeake’s common stock on the date of vesting, in each case, as listed by the New York Stock Exchange provided that, if the date of grant or date of vesting, as applicable, is not
a trading day, the applicable per share closing trading price shall be the per share closing trading price on the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of grant or date of vesting. On or before the forty-fifth day following the end
of each month in which Post Transfer Vesting occurs, Chesapeake shall send an itemized invoice (in a form mutually agreed by Chesapeake and the General Partner) to the General Partner detailing all reimbursable costs and expenses pursuant to this
Section 4.2(b). The General Partner shall, within 30 days of receipt, pay such invoice; provided, however, that in the event that any amounts invoiced are disputed by the General Partner, Chesapeake and the General Partner
agree to resolve such dispute pursuant to the dispute mechanism under the Services Agreement (the “Dispute Mechanism”), as if such Services Agreement were in effect as of the date of such dispute. With respect to any disputed
amounts that are determined to be owing to Chesapeake Management through the Dispute Mechanism, such amounts shall be paid within 10 days of such determination or such earlier or later time as provided in the Dispute Mechanism. 

Section 4.3 Savings Plans. 

(a) Prior to the Transfer Date the General Partner shall establish a 401(k) retirement savings plan that is intended to
meet the qualification requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code (the “General Partner Savings Plan”) and, at such time, the form of the General Partner Savings Plan shall either be subject to a favorable opinion letter
issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) upon which the General Partner and its Subsidiaries are permitted to rely or the General Partner shall have applied for a favorable determination letter from the IRS and such
determination letter, if applicable, shall be received by the General Partner prior to the Savings Plan Transfer Date (as defined below). Chesapeake Management and the General Partner shall select a date on or following the Transfer Date upon which
the account balances of the Transferred Employees under the Chesapeake Savings Plan shall be transferred to the General Partner Savings Plan (such date, the “Savings Plan Transfer Date”). Prior to the Savings Plan Transfer
Date, the General Partner shall provide to Chesapeake Management true 
  

 9 

 
and correct copies of the General Partner Savings Plan and the applicable IRS opinion or determination letter relating thereto. Upon the Savings Plan Transfer Date, Chesapeake Management shall
cause the trustee of the trust established to fund the Chesapeake Savings Plan to transfer the account balances of the Transferred Employees under such plan, determined under the valuation method set forth in the Chesapeake Savings Plan as of the
date of the transfer, to the trustee of the trust established to fund the General Partner Savings Plan in a trustee-to-trustee transfer and the General Partner Savings Plan shall accept such assets and the liabilities associated with such accounts.
Such transfer shall be made in cash; provided, however, that, to the extent that the transferred account balances are invested in the common stock of Chesapeake on the Savings Plan Transfer Date, an in-kind transfer of such amounts
shall be transferred in lieu of the transfer of cash; and provided further that, to the extent that, as of the Savings Plan Transfer Date, any Transferred Employee owes any amount to the Chesapeake Savings Plan pursuant to the terms of a loan from
the Chesapeake Savings Plan to such Transferred Employee, an in-kind transfer of such loan shall be made in lieu of the transfer of cash and, prior to the Savings Plan Transfer Date, Chesapeake shall amend the Chesapeake Savings Plan to permit such
loan transfers. 
 (b) Between the Transfer Date and the Savings Plan Transfer Date, the General Partner and
Chesapeake Management shall take all reasonable steps necessary and appropriate so that Transferred Employees who participated in the Chesapeake Savings Plan and who have loans outstanding from such plan as of the Transfer Date may continue to repay
such loans using voluntary payroll deductions from their paychecks from the General Partner, and Chesapeake and Chesapeake Management agree to take those actions as are necessary to cause such loans not to go into default under the Chesapeake
Savings Plan as a result of the employment transfers of Transferred Employees pursuant to Section 2.1(a) to the extent permitted by applicable Law. 

Section 4.4 Welfare Benefits. Without limiting the generality of the above provisions, this
Section 4.3 contains certain specific provisions regarding the provision of benefits under Welfare Benefit Plans, unemployment compensation benefits and workers compensation benefits. 

(a) Except as specifically provided in this Section 4.4, and subject to the General Partner’s
reimbursement obligations under the Secondment Agreement: (i) Chesapeake Management shall be solely responsible for (A) claims of Transferred Employees who, immediately prior to the Transfer Date, were employed by it as Seconded Employees
and their eligible beneficiaries and dependents for workers compensation, unemployment compensation and under Welfare Benefit Plans that are incurred before the Transfer Date, and (B) claims relating to COBRA Coverage attributable to
“qualifying events” occurring on or before the Transfer Date with respect to any Transferred Employees who, immediately prior to the Transfer Date, were employed by it as Seconded Employees and their eligible beneficiaries and dependents;
and (ii) the General Partner and its Subsidiaries shall be solely responsible for (A) claims of Transferred Employees and their eligible beneficiaries and dependents for workers compensation and unemployment compensation benefits and
claims under Welfare Benefit Plans that are incurred on or after the Transfer Date, and (B) claims relating to COBRA Coverage attributable to “qualifying events” occurring after the Transfer Date with respect to Transferred Employees
and their beneficiaries and dependents. A medical/dental claim shall be considered 
  

 10 

 
incurred on the date when the medical services are rendered or medical supplies are provided, and not when the condition arose or when the course of treatment began. An unemployment compensation
or workers compensation claim shall be considered incurred before the Transfer Date if the occurrence leading up to the claim occurs before the Transfer Date. 

(b) Subject to applicable Law and the provisions of Section 2.1(a) and Articles III and IV of this Agreement,
the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide that each Transferred Employee who is employed in an eligible job classification shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time (other than any
eligibility limitations or waiting time as was in effect under the corresponding Benefit Plan), in any and all Welfare Benefit Plans sponsored by the General Partner for the benefit of Transferred Employees (such plans, collectively, the
“New Welfare Plans”) to the extent coverage under such New Welfare Plan replaces coverage under a similar Benefit Plan in which such Transferred Employee was previously eligible to participate (such plans, collectively, the
“Old Welfare Plans”). For purposes of each New Welfare Plan providing group medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits (each a “New Group Health Plan” and collectively, the “New
Group Health Plans”), the General Partner shall, subject to applicable Law, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Group Health Plan to be waived
for Transferred Employees and their eligible beneficiaries and dependents, to the extent such exclusions and restrictions did not apply under the applicable Old Welfare Plan. In addition, if the Transfer Date is a date other than December 31 of
any calendar year with respect to any Transferred Employees, the General Partner further agrees, subject to applicable Law, to use commercially reasonable efforts to have any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket requirements under the New Group
Health Plans waived to the extent that such requirements have been satisfied for such year under the corresponding Old Welfare Plan and otherwise have credit given under the New Group Health Plans for amounts paid under the corresponding Old Welfare
Plans that provide group medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits (the “Old Group Health Plans”) for the calendar year in which the Transfer Date occurs as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with
the terms and conditions of the New Group Health Plans, provided, and only to the extent that, each Transferred Employee (and his or her dependents and beneficiaries, as applicable) provides appropriate written consent for disclosure by the Old
Group Health Plans to the General Partner or the New Group Health Plans upon their request. 
 (c) The Parties
acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in Section 2.1(a), Article III and this Article IV with respect to employees are included for the sole benefit of the respective Parties and shall not create any right in any other
Person, including, without limitation, any employees, former employees, any participant in any Benefit Plan or General Partner Plan or any beneficiary thereof or any right to continued employment with any of the Parties or any Affiliate of any of
the Parties, nor shall such provisions require any Party to continue or amend any particular benefit plan after the consummation of the transactions resulting in the formation of the Company or pursuant to this Agreement for any employee or former
employee of any Party, and subject only to the obligations of the Parties to each other hereunder, any such plan may be amended or terminated in accordance with its terms and applicable Laws.

Assurances. The Parties agree to execute such additional instruments, agreements and documents, and to take such other actions, as may be necessary to effect the purposes of this Agreement. 

Section 6.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents, constitute the
entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior contracts or agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof and the matters addressed or governed hereby or in the other Transaction
Documents, whether oral or written. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Agreement is being executed and delivered in connection with each of the other Transaction Documents and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (ii) the performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and expected benefits herefrom and therefrom are a material inducement to the willingness of the Parties to enter into and
perform this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions described herein and therein, (iii) the Parties would not have been willing to enter into this Agreement in the absence of the entrance into, performance of, and
the economic interdependence of, the other Transaction Documents, (iv) the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto and thereto are interrelated and part

each Party hereto hereby waives, and shall cause such Affiliates to waive, any claim or other method of recovery, in contract, in tort or under applicable Law, against any Person that is not a Party hereto (or a successor to a Party hereto) relating
to this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement may be enforced only against the named parties hereto. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract
or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may be made only against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto; and no past, present or
future 
  

 14 

 Affiliate of any party hereto, or any director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator,
member, partner, shareholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any such party or Affiliate (including any Person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a party hereto), unless party to this Agreement, shall have any
Liability or obligation with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any claim or cause of action (whether in contract or tort) that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement
(including a representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement). 

Section 6.7 Effect of Waiver or Consent. No waiver or consent, express or implied, by any Party to or of any
breach or default by any Person in the performance by such Person of its obligations hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by such Person of the same or any other
obligations of such Person hereunder. Failure on the part of a Party to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any other Party in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such Party of its
rights hereunder until the applicable statute of limitations period has run. 
 Section 6.8 Amendment or
Modification; Release of COI. This Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time only by the written agreement of Chesapeake and the General Partner. Each such instrument shall be reduced to writing and shall be designated on its face
an “Amendment” or an “Addendum” to this Agreement. The signatory Parties acknowledge and agree that, from and after the Effective Time, COI is hereby released from any future obligations under the Original Agreement. COI is a
Party to this Agreement solely for purposes of acknowledging its release from future obligations in accordance with this Agreement but, from and after the Effective Time, COI shall have no rights or obligations under this Agreement and it shall not
be considered a Party to this Agreement for any other purpose. 
 Section 6.9 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signatory Parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

Section 6.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or
circumstance shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent
permitted by Law. 
 Section 6.11 Force Majeure. To the extent any Party is prevented by Force
Majeure from performing its obligations, in whole or in part, under this Agreement, and if such Party (“Affected Party”) gives notice and details of the Force Majeure to the other Parties as soon as reasonably practicable,
then the Affected Party shall be excused from the performance with respect to any such obligations (other than the obligation to make payments). Each notice of Force Majeure sent by an Affected Party to the other Parties shall specify the event or
circumstance of Force Majeure, the extent to which the Affected Party is unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and the steps being taken by the Affected Party to mitigate and to overcome the effects of such event or circumstances.
The non-Affected Parties shall not be required to perform their obligations to the Affected Party corresponding to the obligations of the 
  

 15 

 Affected Party excused by Force Majeure (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment
of fees or other amounts with respect to any affected Seconded Employees). A Party prevented from performing its obligations due to Force Majeure shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and to overcome the effects of such event or
circumstances and shall resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable. In their efforts to mitigate and overcome the effects of the Force Majeure, and in their efforts to resume performance, Chesapeake Management shall treat the
General Partner the same as any other internal or external service recipient of the affected Seconded Employee services, if any. “Force Majeure” means any act of God, fire, flood, storm, explosion, terrorist act, rebellion or
insurrection, loss of electrical power, computer system failures, illegality, strikes and labor disputes or any similar event or circumstance that prevents a Party from performing its obligations under this Agreement, but only if the event or
circumstance: (a) is not within the reasonable control of the Affected Party; (b) is not the result of the fault or negligence of the Affected Party; and (c) could not, by the exercise of due diligence, have been overcome or avoided.

 Section 6.12 Interpretation. In this Agreement, unless a clear contrary intention appears:
(a) the singular includes the plural and vice versa; (b) reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and assigns but, in the case of a Party, only if such successors and assigns are permitted by this Agreement, and
reference to a Person in a particular capacity excludes such Person in any other capacity; (c) reference to any gender includes each other gender; (d) reference to any agreement (including this Agreement), document or instrument means such
agreement, document, or instrument as amended or modified and in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and, if applicable, the terms of this Agreement; (e) reference to any Section means such Section of this Agreement,
and references in any Section or definition to any clause means such clause of such Section or definition; (f) “hereunder,” “hereof,” “hereto” and words of similar import will be deemed references to this Agreement
as a whole and not to any particular Section or other provision hereof or thereof; (g) “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding such
term; and (h) relative to the determination of any period of time, “from” means “from and including,” “to” means “to but excluding” and “through” means “through and including.”

 Section 6.13 Titles and Headings. Section titles and headings in this Agreement are inserted for
convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement. 

Section 6.14 Binding Effect. This Agreement will be binding upon, and will inure to the benefit of, the
Parties and their respective successors, permitted assigns and legal representatives. 
 Section 6.15
Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement. 
 Section 6.16
Delay or Partial Exercise Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy under
this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy granted hereby or 
  

 16 

 any related document. The waiver by either Party of a breach of any provisions of this
Agreement will not constitute a waiver of a similar breach in the future or of any other breach or nullify the effectiveness of such provision. 

Section 6.17 Withholding or Granting of Consent. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party may,
with respect to any consent or approval that it is entitled to grant pursuant to this Agreement, grant or withhold such consent or approval in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, with or without cause, and subject to such conditions as it shall
deem appropriate. 
 Section 6.18 Laws and Regulations. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, no Party shall be required to take any act, or fail to take any act, under this Agreement if the effect thereof would be to cause such Party to be in violation of any applicable Law. 

Section 6.19 Third Party Beneficiaries. No Party shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations
under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Each of the Parties hereto specifically intends that CMV and each entity comprising the MLP Group, whether or not a Party to this Agreement, shall be entitled to assert
rights and remedies hereunder as third-party beneficiaries hereto with respect to those provisions of this Agreement affording a right, benefit or privilege to any such entity. Except as set forth in this Section 6.19, the provisions of
this Agreement are enforceable solely by the Parties, and no limited partner, member, or assignee of Chesapeake Management or a member of the MLP Group or other Person (including any Transferred Employee or other employee or service provider of any
Party or any Affiliate thereof) shall have the right, separate and apart from the Parties, CMV and the members of the MLP Group, to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to compel any Party to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

 Section 6.20 No Recourse Against Officers or Directors. For the avoidance of doubt, the
provisions of this Agreement shall not give rise to any right of recourse against any officer or director of any Party. 

Section 6.21 Signatories Duly Authorized. Each of the signatories to this Agreement represents that he is
duly authorized to execute this Agreement on behalf of the Party for which he is signing, and that such signature is sufficient to bind the Party purportedly represented. 

Section 6.22 Role of the Company From and After the Effective Time. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree
that, from and after the Effective Time, the General Partner shall succeed to and assume all of the Company’s rights and obligations under this Original Agreement as reflected in this Agreement. The Company is a Party to this Agreement solely
for purposes of acknowledging the transfer of its rights and obligations in accordance with this Agreement but, from and after the Effective Time, the Company shall have no rights (except as otherwise provided in Section 6.19) or
obligations under this Agreement and it shall not be considered a Party to this Agreement for any other purpose.

SECONDMENT 

Section 2.1 Seconded Employees. 

Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Seconded Employee Schedule”) sets forth a true, complete
and accurate list of each employee (each such employee and each other employee who is subsequently seconded to the General Partner in accordance with this Agreement, a “Seconded Employee” and collectively, the
“Seconded Employees”) who, as of a date no later than five Business Days prior to the Effective Time and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Chesapeake Management agrees to second to the General Partner, and the General
Partner agrees to accept such secondment, for the purpose of performing job functions related to the Business (the “Secondment”). Chesapeake represents and warrants that, in addition to setting forth the names of the
Designated Seconded Employees (as defined below), the Seconded Employee Schedule constitutes a true, complete and accurate list of each employee primarily engaged in providing services for, or with respect to, the business of the MLP as described in
the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-164905) (the “Business”) as of the date no fewer than five Business Days prior to the Effective Time. The Seconded Employees will remain at all times employees of
Chesapeake Management but, in addition, they will also be joint employees of the General Partner during the Period of Secondment (as defined below) and shall, subject to Section 2.5, at all times during the Period of Secondment, work
under the direction, supervision and control of the General Partner. Chesapeake Management will retain the right to hire or discharge the Seconded Employees with respect to their employment with Chesapeake Management; provided however, that
Chesapeake Management shall consult with 
  

 -6- 

 
the General Partner prior to hiring an individual who will become a Seconded Employee, and will in good faith consider (i) hiring each individual as a Seconded Employee whom the General
Partner so requests and (ii) refraining from hiring an individual as a Seconded Employee whom the General Partner desires not to hire. Subject to the provisions in Sections 2.2 and 2.5, none of Chesapeake, Chesapeake Management or
any other Chesapeake Entity will otherwise exercise direction, supervision or control over the Seconded Employees, and Chesapeake and Chesapeake Management shall cause their Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their
Subsidiaries) not to exercise direction, supervision or control over the Seconded Employees. For each Seconded Employee, the “Period of Secondment” shall be that period of time as set forth in Section 2.2.
Seconded Employees shall have no authority or apparent authority to act on behalf of Chesapeake Management or any Chesapeake Entity when they are under the direction, supervision or control of the General Partner during the Period of Secondment. The
Seconded Employee Schedule sets forth the names of the Seconded Employees, the job functions of the Seconded Employees and the starting date for the Period of Secondment for each Seconded Employee. Subject to the above proviso and
Section 2.4, individuals may be added to, removed from or designated as Shared Services Employees on the Seconded Employee Schedule from time to time by the execution by the Parties (other than COI and the Company) of a completed
“Addition/Removal/Change of Responsibility of Seconded Employee” form, the form of which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B, which will be fully binding on the Parties for all purposes under this Agreement. For the purpose
of clarity, the Parties agree that Chesapeake Management may designate any Seconded Employee, other than a Designated Seconded Employee, as a Shared Services Employee on Exhibit B without the necessity of the Parties executing Exhibit B. Any such
designation shall be subject to review and restriction/elimination by the General Partner under Section 2.5. 

Section 2.2 Period of Secondment. 

Chesapeake Management will second to the General Partner each Seconded Employee on the start date set forth on the
Seconded Employee Schedule and continue to second, during the period (and only during the period) that the Seconded Employee is performing services for the General Partner, until the earliest of: 

(a) the end of the term of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.1; 

(b) the end date, if any, set forth for the Seconded Employee on the Seconded Employee Schedule (or another end date for
such Seconded Employee as mutually agreed in writing by the Parties) (the “End Date”); 

(c) a withdrawal from the Secondment or resignation or termination of employment with respect to such Seconded Employee;

 (d) six (6) months (or such earlier date as may be determined by the General Partner in its sole
discretion) following the date on which Chesapeake Midstream Holdings, L.L.C. or its affiliates ceases to own at least 25 percent of the issued and outstanding voting equity of Chesapeake Midstream Ventures, L.L.C. and the General Partner has
entered into satisfactory arrangements which it determines, in good faith, will provide it with suitable qualified and experienced full-time or seconded employees necessary to operate, manage and maintain the Business; or 

 

 -7- 

 (e) a termination of Secondment for such Seconded Employee by the General
Partner under Section 2.4. 
 At the end of the Period of Secondment for any Seconded Employee, such
Seconded Employee will no longer be subject to the direction of the General Partner with regard to the Seconded Employee’s day-to-day activities unless such individual thereafter otherwise becomes employed by the General Partner. 

Section 2.3 Withdrawal or Resignation. 

Chesapeake Management will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any early withdrawal from the Secondment or
resignation from employment of the Seconded Employees prior to the end of such Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment. If any Seconded Employee tenders his resignation of employment to Chesapeake Management, Chesapeake Management will
promptly notify the General Partner. If any Seconded Employee tenders a withdrawal from his Secondment, the General Partner will promptly notify Chesapeake Management. 

Section 2.4 Termination of Secondment. 

The General Partner will have the right to terminate the Secondment to it of any Seconded Employee for any reason at any
time (such terminated Seconded Employees referred to as “Removed Employees”). Except as contemplated in Section 2.2(a), (b), (c) and (d), Chesapeake Management will have no right to
terminate the Secondment to the General Partner of any Seconded Employee without the prior written consent of the General Partner (which may be through the execution of a completed Addition/Removal/Change of Responsibility of Seconded Employee
form). Upon the termination of any Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment by Chesapeake Management without the prior written consent of the General Partner, Chesapeake Management will be solely liable for any costs or expenses associated with
the termination of the Secondment, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Upon the termination of a Secondment, the Seconded Employee will cease performing services for the General Partner. At no time will the General Partner have the right
to terminate the employment with Chesapeake Management of the Seconded Employees. Chesapeake Management shall in its sole discretion determine whether the employment by Chesapeake Management of any such Removed Employee shall be terminated following
the termination of such Removed Employee’s Secondment or whether such Removed Employee shall be redeployed by Chesapeake Management. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Chesapeake Management nor any of its Affiliates (other than CMV, the
General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) will, within the nine (9) month period following termination, hire or reassign a Seconded Employee whose Secondment is terminated by the Seconded Employee or Chesapeake Management. 

 

 -8- 

 Section 2.5 Supervision. 

In the course and scope of performing any Seconded Employee’s job functions for the General Partner, the Seconded
Employee will report into the General Partner’s management structure, and will be under the direct management and supervision of the General Partner. 

During the Period of Secondment when the Seconded Employee is under the direction, supervision and control of the General
Partner, the General Partner shall: 
 (a) have ultimate and full responsibility for the daily work assignments
of the Seconded Employees, including supervision of their day-to-day work activities and performance consistent with the purposes stated in Section 2.1 and the job functions set forth in the Seconded Employee Schedule; and 

(b) set and maintain the hours of work and the holidays and vacation schedules that are consistent with the hours of work
and the holidays and vacation schedules of Chesapeake Management and determine the training to be provided to the Seconded Employees. 

It is recognized by the Parties that certain Seconded Employees will, on a limited basis, perform services (the
“Shared Services”) for Chesapeake Management or its Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) (each, a “Chesapeake Entity” and collectively, the
“Chesapeake Entities”). Seconded Employees who will perform Shared Services are designated as “Shared Services Employees” on Exhibits A and B to this Agreement (as the same may be revised pursuant
to Section 2.1). When these Shared Services Employees are performing services for the Chesapeake Entities, the Chesapeake Entities will have the responsibility for the assignment of duties and supervision of these Shared Services
Employees. If upon review of the hours a Shared Services Employee has worked on Chesapeake Entity matters, the General Partner wishes to restrict further or eliminate such work for Chesapeake Entities by a Shared Services Employee, the General
Partner will give Chesapeake Management at least 30 days’ notice of that restriction or elimination. After the expiration of the 30-day notice period, the level of work for Chesapeake Entities by the Shared Services Employee addressed in the
notice will be governed by the restriction or elimination stated by the General Partner in its notice. 

Section 2.6 Seconded Employee Qualifications. 

Chesapeake Management will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with past practice to provide suitably
qualified and experienced field-level Seconded Employees necessary to operate, manage and maintain the Business. Chesapeake Management does not warrant that the Secondment of the Seconded Employees will permit the General Partner or the MLP to
achieve any specific results. 
 Section 2.7 Benefit Plan Participation. 

None of CMV, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries shall be a participating employer in any Benefit
Plan during the Period of Secondment. Subject to the General Partner’s reimbursement obligations hereunder, Chesapeake Management and its 

 

 -9- 

 
Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) shall remain solely responsible for all obligations and Liabilities arising under the express terms of the Benefit
Plans, and during the Period of Secondment, none of CMV, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries shall assume any Benefit Plan or have any obligations or Liabilities arising under the express terms of the Benefit Plans, in each
case except for cost reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE III. 

GENERAL PARTNER EMPLOYEE SERVICES 

Section 3.1 General Partner Employee Services. 

Those services provided by the Seconded Employees shall be referred to herein as the “General Partner Employee
Services”. 
 Section 3.2 Cancellation of General Partner Employee Services.

 The General Partner may terminate any of the General Partner Employee Services on 30 days’ prior written
notice to Chesapeake Management; provided, however, that a complete termination of all General Partner Employee Services shall be subject to the notice provisions of the last sentence of Section 6.1. In the event the General
Partner terminates the General Partner Employee Services, the General Partner shall pay Chesapeake Management the monthly installment for the last month (or portion thereof) in which it received such terminated services. Upon payment thereof, the
General Partner shall have no further services payment obligations to Chesapeake Management pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such terminated services. 

Section 3.3 Workers’ Compensation. 

During the Period of Secondment, Chesapeake Management will maintain workers’ compensation insurance (either through
an insurance company or qualified self-insured program) which shall include and afford coverage to the Seconded Employees. Chesapeake Management will name the General Partner as an additional named insured under such insurance policy or qualified
self-insured program. Prior to being assigned any duties by the General Partner, each Seconded Employee must sign an acknowledgement that the Seconded Employee is an employee during the Period of Secondment of both Chesapeake Management and the
General Partner and that for any work place injury, the Seconded Employee’s sole remedy will be under the workers’ compensation insurance policy or qualified self-insured program of Chesapeake Management. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein shall preclude a Seconded Employee from participating in benefit programs generally available to employees of Chesapeake Management. 

ARTICLE IV. 

SERVICES REIMBURSEMENT 

Section 4.1 Operational, Management, Reporting and Routine Maintenance Expenses. 

On or before the forty-fifth day after the end of each month during the Period of Secondment, Chesapeake Management shall
send an itemized invoice (in a form mutually agreed 
  

 -10- 

 
upon by the General Partner and Chesapeake Management) to the General Partner detailing all reimbursable expenses under Section 4.2 incurred by Chesapeake Management with respect to
the Seconded Employees in connection with the performance of the General Partner Employee Services during the preceding month (the “Services Reimbursement”). The General Partner shall, within 30 days of receipt, pay such
invoice to the extent that the amounts therein are not disputed by the General Partner pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures provided for in the Services Agreement (the “Dispute Mechanism”). With respect to any
disputed amounts that are determined to be owing to Chesapeake Management through the Dispute Mechanism, such amounts will be paid within 10 days of such determination or at such earlier or later time as provided in the Dispute Mechanism.

 Section 4.2 Seconded Employees. 

4.2.1 Services Reimbursement. Subject to Sections 4.2.2, 4.4 and 4.5, the Services

(b) 401(k) plan administration costs, any cash expense for matching 401(k) contributions made by Chesapeake Management,

compensation contributions are made by means of a contribution of either newly-issued or treasury shares of common stock of Chesapeake, the costs and expenses calculated with respect to each such share contributed shall be equal to the Chesapeake
Trading Price on the date of the applicable contribution;

granted before or during the Period of Secondment (calculated as set forth below);

Employee’s Period of Secondment but paid after the termination of such Period of Secondment, and (ii) shall not include the cost of any income tax or other tax liabilities of the Chesapeake Entities with respect to the acquisition or
payment of Units) (“MICP Payments”);

(p) any sales taxes imposed upon the provision of any taxable General Partner Employee Services under this Agreement
provided, that, the General Partner and Chesapeake Management contemplate that the General Partner Employee Services provided pursuant to this Agreement are not taxable services for sales and use tax purposes. 

The costs and expenses described in (a) through (p) above are referred to as “Seconded Employee
Expenses.” Where it is not reasonably practicable to determine the amount of such a cost or expense, the General Partner and Chesapeake Management shall mutually agree on the method of determining or estimating such cost or expense.

  

 -12- 

 4.2.2 Reduction and Pro Ration for Shared Services. 

(a) With respect to each Shared Services Employee, Chesapeake Management will require such Shared Services Employee to
record, in quarter hour increments, the number of hours worked by such Shared Services Employee providing services to the Chesapeake Entities and the number of hours worked by such Shared Services Employee providing services to the General Partner.
For each month during the Period of Secondment, the amount of the Services Reimbursement payable by the General Partner with respect to such month shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate Chesapeake Services Costs for all Shared Services
Employees for such month. In addition, business travel and other business expenses reimbursed in the normal course by a Chesapeake Entity and incurred to facilitate the provision of the Shared Employee Services during a month will be deducted from
the Services Reimbursement due under Section 4.1 for such month. The aggregate amount of reduction against the Services Reimbursement for Shared Services Employees pursuant to this paragraph shall be referred to herein as the
“Shared Services Reduction Amount.” 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Section 4.2 or Section 4.4, the amount of any Reimbursable Severance Payment and/or Termination Costs payable by the General Partner with respect to Shared Services Employees shall be equal to the product of (x) the
amount of the Reimbursable Severance Payment or Termination Costs, as applicable, and (y) the GP Shared Services Percentage; provided, however, that Termination Costs with respect to Shared Services Employees that relate to or arise out
of any claim of discrimination or other illegality in connection with such termination that is attributable to actions or omissions by the General Partner or its employees or events that occur in the course of the services performed by such Shared
Services Employee to the General Partner shall not be subject to this Section 4.2.2(b), but shall be reimbursable, if at all, in accordance with Section 4.4(a). 

4.2.3 Calculation of Certain Reimbursable Amounts. 

(a) With respect to Medical Coverage, Chesapeake Management shall maintain or participate in a stop loss insurance policy
at a threshold coverage level of no more than $250,000, applicable on a per covered individual basis and, in the event a covered individual’s claims trigger reimbursement under such stop loss insurance policy with respect to claims incurred
during the Period of Secondment, the full amount of such reimbursement will be provided to the General Partner. The cost of maintaining such stop loss insurance coverage with respect to the Seconded Employees and their covered dependents shall be
included in the Seconded Employee Expenses. 
 (b) The costs and expenses calculated with respect to the vesting
of each share of restricted stock shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the Chesapeake Trading Price stock on the date of grant and (ii) the Chesapeake Trading Price on the date of vesting. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Chesapeake Trading Price” on an applicable date shall be the per share closing trading price of a share of Chesapeake common stock on such date, as listed by the New York Stock Exchange provided, that, if the
applicable date is not a trading day, the applicable per share closing trading price shall be the per share closing trading price on the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date. 

 

 -13- 

 (c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Severance
Payments” shall mean the severance payments and benefits paid to a Seconded Employee or Removed Employee in return for a release of claims which includes the General Partner and its Affiliates as named releasees, in an amount equal to
the greater of (i) the severance payments and benefits due to such Seconded Employee or Removed Employee under an employment agreement between Chesapeake Management and such Seconded Employee or Removed Employee and (ii) the severance
payments and benefits due to such Seconded Employee or Removed Employee under a severance policy or program mutually agreed upon between Chesapeake Management and the General Partner, provided, that the term “Severance Payments”
shall not include any amounts payable in connection with a termination of employment of a Seconded Employee or Removed Employee by Chesapeake Management that occurs more than 90 days after Chesapeake Management receives notice from the General
Partner of the termination of such Removed Employee’s Secondment. 
 (d) For the purposes of this
Agreement, “Reimbursable Severance Payments” shall mean all Severance Payments made (i) to Removed Employees whom the General Partner terminates from Secondment for reasons other than Cause (as defined below),
(ii) to Removed Employees whom the General Partner terminates from Secondment for any reason after the first anniversary of the commencement of such Seconded Employee’s Secondment, (iii) to Seconded Employees as of the Offer Date (as
defined in the Employee Transfer Agreement) to whom the General Partner does not provide an offer of employment on or prior to the Offer Date in accordance with Section 2.1 of the Amended and Restated Employee Transfer Agreement among
the Parties and (iv) to Seconded Employees who decline an offer of employment from the General Partner made on or prior to the Offer Date that would require Geographic Relocation (as defined in the Employee Transfer Agreement). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event shall any severance payment or benefit provided to a Transferred Employee (as defined in the Employee Transfer Agreement) by reason of a termination of his or her employment from Chesapeake Management or any Affiliate
thereof that results solely from the transfer of his or her employment to the General Partner constitute a Reimbursable Severance Payment for purposes of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean
the termination of a Seconded Employee’s Secondment by the General Partner because of unsatisfactory performance or as a result of dishonesty, unethical conduct, insubordination or violation of General Partner work rules as established by the
General Partner from time to time. 
 (e) The costs and expenses calculated with respect to the provision of all
sporting event tickets to Seconded Employees shall be equal to the actual cost incurred based on an arms length and non-discriminatory agreement between the Chesapeake Entities and the General Partner; provided that the amount of any costs and
expenses reimbursable by the General Partner under this Agreement and any other agreement (including, without limitation, the Shared Services Agreement and the Services Agreement, each as defined in the MLP Agreement) with respect to the provision
of sporting event tickets shall not exceed $200,000 per annum in the aggregate. Notwithstanding Section 4.1 above, the costs and expenses of providing all sporting event tickets to the Seconded Employees shall be reimbursed by the General
Partner on an annual basis (as opposed to a monthly basis). 
 Except to the extent expressly provided in this
Section 4.2, the General Partner shall have no obligation to reimburse Chesapeake Management for any Severance Payment or any other separation payment or severance benefit provided by Chesapeake Management or any Affiliate thereof to any
Seconded Employee. 
  

 -14- 

 Section 4.3 Cash Incentive Compensation. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Transfer Date under the Secondment Agreement occurs other than on
December 31 of any year during the Period of Secondment, with respect to all Seconded Employees, the Services Reimbursement shall include the amounts, if any, of all cash bonus and other cash incentive compensation payments that would be
payable to the Seconded Employees through the Transfer Date under the terms and conditions of the applicable Benefit Plans (except that Chesapeake Management may, in its discretion, consider continued employment by Chesapeake Management through
the Transfer Date as satisfying any requirement under any such Benefit Plan of continued employment through year end or date of payment) and such amounts shall be determined on a pro-rated basis for the year that includes the Transfer Date based on
the number of days that the Seconded Employee was actually seconded to the General Partner hereunder during the year in which the Transfer Date occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 4.3 shall not apply
to MICP Payments, and 100% of the MICP Payments attributable to awards made to a Seconded Employee during his or her Period of Secondment (regardless of whether such award is actually paid during or after the termination of the Seconded
Employee’s Period of Secondment) shall be included in the Services Reimbursement and the Seconded Employee Expenses to the extent that such MICP Payments are actually paid by a Chesapeake Entity and to the extent provided in
Section 4.2; provided, however, that with respect to a Seconded Employee whose Secondment is terminated but who remains employed by a Chesapeake Entity following such termination of Secondment, the amount of the MICP Payments
includable in the Services Reimbursement shall not exceed the amount of such MICP Payments that were actually paid and to the extent provided in Section 4.2 but multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which equals the number of days in such
Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment and the denominator of which equals the number of days in such Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment plus the number of days of his or her post-Secondment employment with a Chesapeake Entity
through the applicable payment date under the MICP. 
 Section 4.4 Termination Costs.

 (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the General Partner shall reimburse Chesapeake
Management for any and all Termination Costs arising out of or in any way connected with or related to claims by a Seconded Employee concerning the termination of employment of such Seconded Employee to the extent such Termination Costs are
attributable to actions, omissions or events by the General Partner or its employees that occur during such Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment (and, in the case of a Removed Employee who is terminated by Chesapeake Management within 90
days after the date on which Chesapeake Management is notified by the General Partner that the employee has become a Removed Employee, such Termination Costs attributable to actions, omissions or events that occur during such 90 day period).
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, with respect to the Shared Services Employees, the General Partner shall have no obligation or liability with respect to Termination Costs arising out of or relating to the services provided by such Shared
Services Employees to the Chesapeake Entities. 
  

 -15- 

 (b) As to all Chesapeake Management employees who do not become Seconded
Employees, Chesapeake Management shall be solely responsible for any and all Termination Costs, Severance Payments and other severance costs and benefits relating to the employment by Chesapeake Management of such Chesapeake Employees for all
periods ending on or before the Transfer Date. 
 (c) Chesapeake Management will indemnify, defend and hold
harmless CMV, the MLP, the General Partner and their respective subsidiaries, directors, officers and employees against any and all costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), claims, demands, losses, liabilities, obligations,
actions, lawsuits and other proceedings, judgments and awards (each, a “Loss” and collectively, the “Losses” ) arising out of or in any way connected with or related to claims by a Seconded Employee
concerning the termination of employment of such Seconded Employee by Chesapeake Management in the event such termination of employment is effected without the prior written consent of the General Partner, even though such Losses may be caused in
part by the negligence of the General Partner, except to the extent that (i) such Losses arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the General Partner or (ii) Chesapeake Management terminates such Seconded
Employee’s employment as the result of the Seconded Employee’s (X) willful commission of an act of theft, fraud or dishonesty in connection with such Seconded Employee’s Secondment or employment with Chesapeake Management;
(Y) willful disclosure of Chesapeake Management’s confidential or proprietary information; or (Z) continued failure or refusal to adhere to Chesapeake Management’s employment policies, including policies prohibiting employment
discrimination and harassment, after receiving written notice of any such failure or refusal. 
 (d) Chesapeake
Management will indemnify, defend and hold harmless CMV, the MLP, the General Partner and their respective subsidiaries, directors, officers and employees against any and all Losses arising out of or in any way connected with or related to claims by
a Seconded Employee concerning the termination of the Secondment of such Seconded Employee by Chesapeake Management without the prior written consent of the General Partner, even though such Losses may be caused in part by the negligence of the
General Partner, except to the extent that (i) such Losses arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the General Partner or (ii) Chesapeake Management terminates such Seconded Employee’s Secondment as
the result of the Seconded Employee’s (X) willful commission of an act of theft, fraud or dishonesty in connection with the Seconded Employee’s Secondment or employment with Chesapeake Management; (Y) willful disclosure of
Chesapeake Management’s confidential or proprietary information; or (Z) continued failure or refusal to adhere to Chesapeake Management’s employment policies, including policies prohibiting employment discrimination and harassment,
after receiving written notice of any such failure or refusal. This indemnity does not apply to any Removed Employee. 
  

 -16- 

 (e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Termination
Costs” shall mean all liabilities incurred in connection with or arising out of the termination of employment (whether actual or constructive) with Chesapeake Management of any Seconded Employee, including liabilities relating to or
arising out of any claim of discrimination or other illegality in connection with such termination, including cost of defense of such claims, but excluding Severance Payments, provided, that “Termination Costs” shall not include any
amount to the extent that such amount arises out of or results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Chesapeake Management or any Affiliate of Chesapeake Management (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their
subsidiaries). 
 Section 4.5 Equity Awards; Designated Seconded Employees. 

(a) During the Period of Secondment, Chesapeake may continue to grant Seconded Employees who are not Designated Seconded
Employees (as defined below) equity-related compensation awards pursuant to the Chesapeake Energy Corporation Amended and Restated Long Term Incentive Plan, the Chesapeake Energy Corporation 2003 Stock Incentive Plan and/or such other equity
incentive compensation plan as has been or may be adopted by Chesapeake, in accordance with customary business practices applicable to employees of Chesapeake Management. Any such awards shall provide for vesting to continue based on service with
Chesapeake Management, the General Partner and any of their respective Affiliates and, with respect to any such awards that are options, if the Seconded Employee accepts employment with the General Partner after the Period of Secondment, the
transfer of such employment shall not be considered a termination of employment that would trigger the beginning of any post-termination option exercise period. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, each of Chesapeake and Chesapeake Management hereby agree that, during the
Period of Secondment and during any other time at which a Designated Seconded Employee is employed by the General Partner, it shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates, other than the General Partner, not to, grant, issue or award such Designated
Seconded Employee any equity or equity-based award with respect to securities of Chesapeake or such entity, including without limitation, shares of restricted or unrestricted stock, stock options, restricted stock units or stock appreciation rights
(collectively, “Chesapeake Equity Awards”). The Parties hereby agree that in no event shall the General Partner have any obligation or liability with respect to any Chesapeake Equity Award granted to a Designated Seconded
Employee, and that no cost or expense of or relating to any such Chesapeake Equity Award shall constitute a Seconded Employee Expense or be part of the Services Reimbursement hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, “Designated Seconded
Employees” shall mean those individuals listed on Exhibit C hereto and 
  

 -17- 

 
such other individuals identified as “Designated Seconded Employees” by mutual written agreement of the General Partner and Chesapeake Management, which agreement may be evidenced by
their execution of an updated Exhibit C. For the avoidance of doubt, awards pursuant to the MICP shall not be considered Chesapeake Equity Awards for purposes of this Agreement. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 4.5, Chesapeake and its Affiliates shall not be prohibited from making matching employer contributions in the form of Chesapeake common stock to the accounts of the Designated Seconded Employees under the Chesapeake Energy
Corporation Savings and Incentive Stock Bonus Plan or any successor 401(k) plan (the “Savings Plan”), in accordance with the provisions of the Savings Plan that apply generally to all eligible participants under such plan.

 ARTICLE V. 

ALLOCATION; RECORDS; PAYMENT 

Section 5.1 Allocation; Records. 

Chesapeake Management will maintain auditable records of the direct and indirect costs of the Seconded Employee Expenses
that reflect the General Partner Employee Services, the Services Reimbursement and the Shared Services Reduction Amount. The General Partner and its representatives will have the right from time to time, during regular business hours and on
reasonable prior notice, to audit such records and such other records as the General Partner may reasonably require in connection with its verification of the Seconded Employee Expenses, the Services Reimbursement and the Shared Services Reduction
Amount during regular business hours and on reasonable prior notice. Based on these records, the General Partner may request adjustments under Section 4.2 above. Upon request, the General Partner will provide to Chesapeake Management
such information that is within the General Partner’s control as is necessary to allow Chesapeake Management to keep and maintain books/records reflecting hours worked and costs and expenses incurred in connection with each of the Seconded
Employees, including for Shared Services. Chesapeake Management will have the right from time to time upon its reasonable request to audit such information and books/records maintained by the General Partner during regular business hours and on
reasonable prior notice. 
 Section 5.2 Payment. 

The General Partner and Chesapeake Management acknowledge and agree that Chesapeake Management shall be responsible for
paying the Seconded Employee Expenses (or providing the employee benefits with respect thereto, as applicable) to the Seconded Employees but that the General Partner shall be responsible for reimbursing Chesapeake Management for the Seconded
Employee Expenses to the extent provided under Section 4.2 of this Agreement. Subject to the General Partner’s responsibility to so reimburse Chesapeake Management, Chesapeake Management agrees to indemnify and hold CMV, the MLP,
the General Partner and their subsidiaries harmless from any and all Losses incurred by such entities related to Chesapeake Management’s failure to carry out its duties for the payment of the Seconded Employee Expenses for Seconded Employees or
the provision of the employee benefits related thereto, as set forth above, except to the extent that such Losses arise solely out of or result solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the General Partner.

 ARTICLE VI. 

TERM 

Section 6.1 Term. 

The term of this Agreement commenced on the Original Execution Date and will continue for an initial period of five
(5) years thereafter. Upon the expiration of the initial five year period, the term of this Agreement shall automatically extend for an additional 12-month period, unless any Party provides at least 90 days’ prior written notice to the
other Parties prior to the expiration of such initial period, that such Party wishes for this Agreement to expire at the end of the initial five-year period. After the initial 12-month renewal period, the term of this Agreement shall automatically
extend for additional consecutive 12-month periods, unless any Party provides prior written notice, at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the applicable 12-month period, that such Party wishes for this Agreement to expire at the end of such
12-month period. Upon proper notice by a Party to the other Parties, in accordance with this Article VI, that such Party wishes for this Agreement to expire on the expiration of the applicable five year or 12-month period, this Agreement
shall not automatically extend, but shall instead expire upon the expiration of the applicable five-year or 12-month period and only those provisions that, by their terms, expressly survive this Agreement shall so survive. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the General Partner may terminate this Agreement at any time, upon 90 days’ prior written notice to Chesapeake Management, and only those provisions that, by their terms, expressly survive this Agreement shall so survive.

A Party may change its address for the purposes of notices hereunder by giving notice to the other Parties specifying

 Section 7.4
Further Assurances. 
 The Parties agree to execute such additional instruments, agreements and documents,
and to take such other actions, as may be necessary to effect the purposes of this Agreement. 

Section 7.5 Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior contracts or agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof and the matters addressed or governed hereby or in the other Transaction Documents, whether oral or written. Without
limiting the foregoing, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Agreement is being executed and delivered in connection with each of the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby,
(ii) the performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and expected benefits herefrom and therefrom are a material inducement to the willingness of the Parties to enter into and perform this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents and the transactions described herein and therein, (iii) the Parties would not have been willing to enter into this Agreement in the absence of the entrance into, performance of, and the economic interdependence of, the
Transaction Documents, (iv) the 
  

 -21- 

 
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto and thereto are interrelated and part of an integrated
transaction effected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (v) irrespective of the form such documents have taken, or otherwise, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents are necessary elements of one and the same overall and integrated transaction, (vi) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the other Transaction Documents are economically interdependent and (vii) such Party will
cause any of its successors or permitted assigns to expressly acknowledge and agree to this Section 7.5 prior to any assignment or transfer of this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise. 

Section 7.6 No Recourse. 

No Party hereto nor any Affiliate of a Party hereto shall assert or threaten, and each Party hereto hereby waives, and
shall cause such Affiliates to waive, any claim or other method of recovery, in contract, in tort or under applicable Law, against any Person that is not a Party hereto (or a successor to a Party hereto) relating to this Agreement. Without limiting
the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement may be enforced only against the named parties hereto. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon,
arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may be made only against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto; and no past, present or future Affiliate of any party
hereto, or any director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, shareholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any such party or Affiliate (including any Person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a
party hereto), unless party to this Agreement, shall have any Liability or obligation with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any claim or cause of action (whether in contract or tort) that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or
the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including a representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement). 

Section 7.7 Effect of Waiver or Consent. 

No waiver or consent, express or implied, by any Party to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by
such Person of its obligations hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by such Person of the same or any other obligations of such Person hereunder. Failure on the part
of a Party to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any other Party in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such Party of its rights hereunder until the applicable statute of
limitations period has run. 
 Section 7.8 Amendment or Modification; Release of COI.

 This Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time only by the written agreement of Chesapeake and
the General Partner. Each such instrument shall be reduced to writing and shall be designated on its face an “Amendment” or an “Addendum” to this Agreement. The signatory Parties acknowledge and agree that, from and after the
Effective 
  

 -22- 

 
Time, COI is hereby released from any future obligations under the Original Agreement. COI is a Party to this Agreement solely for purposes of acknowledging its release from future obligations in
accordance with this Agreement but, from and after the Effective Time, COI shall have no rights or obligations under this Agreement and it shall not be considered a Party to this Agreement for any other purpose. 

Section 7.9 Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signatory Parties had signed
the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

Section 7.10 Severability. 

If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid or
unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Law. 

Section 7.11 Force Majeure. 

To the extent any Party is prevented by Force Majeure from performing its obligations, in whole or in part, under this
Agreement, and if such Party (“Affected Party”) gives notice and details of the Force Majeure to the other Parties as soon as reasonably practicable, then the Affected Party shall be excused from the performance with respect
to any such obligations (other than the obligation to make payments). Each notice of Force Majeure sent by an Affected Party to the other Parties shall specify the event or circumstance of Force Majeure, the extent to which the Affected Party is
unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and the steps being taken by the Affected Party to mitigate and to overcome the effects of such event or circumstances. The non-Affected Parties shall not be required to perform their
obligations to the Affected Party corresponding to the obligations of the Affected Party excused by Force Majeure (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of fees or other amounts with respect to any affected Seconded Employees). A Party
prevented from performing its obligations due to Force Majeure shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and to overcome the effects of such event or circumstances and shall resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable.
In their efforts to mitigate and overcome the effects of the Force Majeure, and in their efforts to resume performance, Chesapeake Management shall treat the General Partner the same as any other internal or external service recipient of the
affected Seconded Employee services, if any. “Force Majeure” means any act of God, fire, flood, storm, explosion, terrorist act, rebellion or insurrection loss of electrical power, computer system failures, finding of
illegality, strikes and labor disputes or any similar event or circumstance that prevents a Party from performing its obligations under this Agreement, but only if the event or circumstance: (a) is not within the reasonable control of the
Affected Party; (b) is not the result of the fault or negligence of the Affected Party; and (c) could not, by the exercise of due diligence, have been overcome or avoided. 

 

 -23- 

 Section 7.12 Interpretation. 

In this Agreement, unless a clear contrary intention appears: (a) the singular includes the plural and vice versa;
(b) reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and assigns but, in the case of a Party, only if such successors and assigns are permitted by this Agreement, and reference to a Person in a particular capacity excludes such
Person in any other capacity; (c) reference to any gender includes each other gender; (d) reference to any agreement (including this Agreement), document or instrument means such agreement, document, or instrument as amended or modified
and in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and, if applicable, the terms of this Agreement; (e) reference to any Section means such Section of this Agreement, and references in any Section or definition to any clause
means such clause of such Section or definition; (f) “hereunder,” “hereof,” “hereto” and words of similar import will be deemed references to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Section or other
provision hereof or thereof; (g) “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding such term; and (h) relative to the determination of any
period of time, “from” means “from and including,” “to” means “to but excluding” and “through” means “through and including.”

Section titles and headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a
part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement. 
 Section 7.14 Binding
Effect. 
 This Agreement will be binding upon, and will inure to the benefit of, the Parties and their
respective successors, permitted assigns and legal representatives. 
 Section 7.15 Time of the
Essence. 
 Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement. 

Section 7.16 Delay or Partial Exercise Not Waiver. 

No failure or delay on the part of any Party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy granted hereby or any related document. The waiver by
either Party of a breach of any provisions of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of a similar breach in the future or of any other breach or nullify the effectiveness of such provision. 

Section 7.17 Withholding or Granting of Consent. 

Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party may, with respect to any consent or approval that it is entitled
to grant pursuant to this Agreement, grant or withhold such consent or approval in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, with or without cause, and subject to such conditions as it shall deem appropriate. 

 

 -24- 

 Section 7.18 Laws and Regulations. 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Party shall be required to take any act, or fail to
take any act, under this Agreement if the effect thereof would be to cause such Party to be in violation of any applicable Law. 

Section 7.19 Relationship of the Parties. 

This Agreement does not form a partnership or joint venture between the Parties. This Agreement does not make either
Party an agent or a legal representative of the other Party. The Parties shall not assume or create any obligation, liability, or responsibility, expressed or implied, on behalf of or in the name of the other Party. 

Section 7.20 No Third Party Beneficiaries. 

No Party shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent
of the other Parties. Each of the Parties hereto specifically intends that CMV and each entity comprising the MLP Group, whether or not a Party to this Agreement, shall be entitled to assert rights and remedies hereunder as third-party beneficiaries
hereto with respect to those provisions of this Agreement affording a right, benefit or privilege to any such entity. Except as set forth in this Section 7.20, the provisions of this Agreement are enforceable solely by the Parties, and
no limited partner, member, or assignee of Chesapeake Management or a member of the MLP Group or other Person (including any Seconded Employee or other employee or service provider of any Party or any Affiliate thereof) shall have the right,
separate and apart from the Parties, CMV and the members of the MLP Group, to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to compel any Party to comply with the terms of this Agreement. 

Section 7.21 No Recourse Against Officers or Directors. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Agreement shall not give rise to any right of recourse against any
officer or director of any Party. 
 Section 7.22 Signatories Duly Authorized. 

Each of the signatories to this Agreement represents that he is duly authorized to execute this Agreement on behalf of
the Party for which he is signing, and that such signature is sufficient to bind the Party purportedly represented. 

Section 7.23 Role of the Company From and After the Effective Time. 

The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, from and after the Effective Time, the General Partner shall succeed to
and assume all of the Company’s rights and obligations under the Original Agreement as reflected in this amendment and restatement of this Agreement. The Company is a Party to this Agreement solely for purposes of acknowledging the transfer of
its rights and obligations in accordance with this Agreement but, from and after the Effective Time, the Company shall have no rights (except as otherwise provided in Sections 4.4 and 7.20) or obligations under this Agreement and it
shall not be considered a Party to this Agreement for any other purpose.

SECONDMENT 

Section 2.1 Seconded Employees. 

Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Seconded Employee Schedule”) sets forth a true, complete
and accurate list of each employee (each such employee and each other employee who is subsequently seconded to the General Partner in accordance with this Agreement, a “Seconded Employee” and collectively, the
“Seconded Employees”) who, as of a date no later than five Business Days prior to the Effective Time and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Chesapeake Management agrees to second to the General Partner, and the General
Partner agrees to accept such secondment, for the purpose of performing job functions related to the Business (the “Secondment”). Chesapeake represents and warrants that, in addition to setting forth the names of the
Designated Seconded Employees (as defined below), the Seconded Employee Schedule constitutes a true, complete and accurate list of each employee primarily engaged in providing services for, or with respect to, the business of the MLP as described in
the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-164905) (the “Business”) as of the date no fewer than five Business Days prior to the Effective Time. The Seconded Employees will remain at all times employees of
Chesapeake Management but, in addition, they will also be joint employees of the General Partner during the Period of Secondment (as defined below) and shall, subject to Section 2.5, at all times during the Period of Secondment, work
under the direction, supervision and control of the General Partner. Chesapeake Management will retain the right to hire or discharge the Seconded Employees with respect to their employment with Chesapeake Management; provided however, that
Chesapeake Management shall consult with 
  

 -6- 

 
the General Partner prior to hiring an individual who will become a Seconded Employee, and will in good faith consider (i) hiring each individual as a Seconded Employee whom the General
Partner so requests and (ii) refraining from hiring an individual as a Seconded Employee whom the General Partner desires not to hire. Subject to the provisions in Sections 2.2 and 2.5, none of Chesapeake, Chesapeake Management or
any other Chesapeake Entity will otherwise exercise direction, supervision or control over the Seconded Employees, and Chesapeake and Chesapeake Management shall cause their Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their
Subsidiaries) not to exercise direction, supervision or control over the Seconded Employees. For each Seconded Employee, the “Period of Secondment” shall be that period of time as set forth in Section 2.2.
Seconded Employees shall have no authority or apparent authority to act on behalf of Chesapeake Management or any Chesapeake Entity when they are under the direction, supervision or control of the General Partner during the Period of Secondment. The
Seconded Employee Schedule sets forth the names of the Seconded Employees, the job functions of the Seconded Employees and the starting date for the Period of Secondment for each Seconded Employee. Subject to the above proviso and
Section 2.4, individuals may be added to, removed from or designated as Shared Services Employees on the Seconded Employee Schedule from time to time by the execution by the Parties (other than COI and the Company) of a completed
“Addition/Removal/Change of Responsibility of Seconded Employee” form, the form of which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B, which will be fully binding on the Parties for all purposes under this Agreement. For the purpose
of clarity, the Parties agree that Chesapeake Management may designate any Seconded Employee, other than a Designated Seconded Employee, as a Shared Services Employee on Exhibit B without the necessity of the Parties executing Exhibit B. Any such
designation shall be subject to review and restriction/elimination by the General Partner under Section 2.5. 

Section 2.2 Period of Secondment. 

Chesapeake Management will second to the General Partner each Seconded Employee on the start date set forth on the
Seconded Employee Schedule and continue to second, during the period (and only during the period) that the Seconded Employee is performing services for the General Partner, until the earliest of: 

(a) the end of the term of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.1; 

(b) the end date, if any, set forth for the Seconded Employee on the Seconded Employee Schedule (or another end date for
such Seconded Employee as mutually agreed in writing by the Parties) (the “End Date”); 

(c) a withdrawal from the Secondment or resignation or termination of employment with respect to such Seconded Employee;

 (d) six (6) months (or such earlier date as may be determined by the General Partner in its sole
discretion) following the date on which Chesapeake Midstream Holdings, L.L.C. or its affiliates ceases to own at least 25 percent of the issued and outstanding voting equity of Chesapeake Midstream Ventures, L.L.C. and the General Partner has
entered into satisfactory arrangements which it determines, in good faith, will provide it with suitable qualified and experienced full-time or seconded employees necessary to operate, manage and maintain the Business; or 

 

 -7- 

 (e) a termination of Secondment for such Seconded Employee by the General
Partner under Section 2.4. 
 At the end of the Period of Secondment for any Seconded Employee, such
Seconded Employee will no longer be subject to the direction of the General Partner with regard to the Seconded Employee’s day-to-day activities unless such individual thereafter otherwise becomes employed by the General Partner. 

Section 2.3 Withdrawal or Resignation. 

Chesapeake Management will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any early withdrawal from the Secondment or
resignation from employment of the Seconded Employees prior to the end of such Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment. If any Seconded Employee tenders his resignation of employment to Chesapeake Management, Chesapeake Management will
promptly notify the General Partner. If any Seconded Employee tenders a withdrawal from his Secondment, the General Partner will promptly notify Chesapeake Management. 

Section 2.4 Termination of Secondment. 

The General Partner will have the right to terminate the Secondment to it of any Seconded Employee for any reason at any
time (such terminated Seconded Employees referred to as “Removed Employees”). Except as contemplated in Section 2.2(a), (b), (c) and (d), Chesapeake Management will have no right to
terminate the Secondment to the General Partner of any Seconded Employee without the prior written consent of the General Partner (which may be through the execution of a completed Addition/Removal/Change of Responsibility of Seconded Employee
form). Upon the termination of any Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment by Chesapeake Management without the prior written consent of the General Partner, Chesapeake Management will be solely liable for any costs or expenses associated with
the termination of the Secondment, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Upon the termination of a Secondment, the Seconded Employee will cease performing services for the General Partner. At no time will the General Partner have the right
to terminate the employment with Chesapeake Management of the Seconded Employees. Chesapeake Management shall in its sole discretion determine whether the employment by Chesapeake Management of any such Removed Employee shall be terminated following
the termination of such Removed Employee’s Secondment or whether such Removed Employee shall be redeployed by Chesapeake Management. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Chesapeake Management nor any of its Affiliates (other than CMV, the
General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) will, within the nine (9) month period following termination, hire or reassign a Seconded Employee whose Secondment is terminated by the Seconded Employee or Chesapeake Management. 

 

 -8- 

 Section 2.5 Supervision. 

In the course and scope of performing any Seconded Employee’s job functions for the General Partner, the Seconded
Employee will report into the General Partner’s management structure, and will be under the direct management and supervision of the General Partner. 

During the Period of Secondment when the Seconded Employee is under the direction, supervision and control of the General
Partner, the General Partner shall: 
 (a) have ultimate and full responsibility for the daily work assignments
of the Seconded Employees, including supervision of their day-to-day work activities and performance consistent with the purposes stated in Section 2.1 and the job functions set forth in the Seconded Employee Schedule; and 

(b) set and maintain the hours of work and the holidays and vacation schedules that are consistent with the hours of work
and the holidays and vacation schedules of Chesapeake Management and determine the training to be provided to the Seconded Employees. 

It is recognized by the Parties that certain Seconded Employees will, on a limited basis, perform services (the
“Shared Services”) for Chesapeake Management or its Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) (each, a “Chesapeake Entity” and collectively, the
“Chesapeake Entities”). Seconded Employees who will perform Shared Services are designated as “Shared Services Employees” on Exhibits A and B to this Agreement (as the same may be revised pursuant
to Section 2.1). When these Shared Services Employees are performing services for the Chesapeake Entities, the Chesapeake Entities will have the responsibility for the assignment of duties and supervision of these Shared Services
Employees. If upon review of the hours a Shared Services Employee has worked on Chesapeake Entity matters, the General Partner wishes to restrict further or eliminate such work for Chesapeake Entities by a Shared Services Employee, the General
Partner will give Chesapeake Management at least 30 days’ notice of that restriction or elimination. After the expiration of the 30-day notice period, the level of work for Chesapeake Entities by the Shared Services Employee addressed in the
notice will be governed by the restriction or elimination stated by the General Partner in its notice. 

Section 2.6 Seconded Employee Qualifications. 

Chesapeake Management will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with past practice to provide suitably
qualified and experienced field-level Seconded Employees necessary to operate, manage and maintain the Business. Chesapeake Management does not warrant that the Secondment of the Seconded Employees will permit the General Partner or the MLP to
achieve any specific results. 
 Section 2.7 Benefit Plan Participation. 

None of CMV, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries shall be a participating employer in any Benefit
Plan during the Period of Secondment. Subject to the General Partner’s reimbursement obligations hereunder, Chesapeake Management and its 

 

 -9- 

 
Affiliates (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP and their Subsidiaries) shall remain solely responsible for all obligations and Liabilities arising under the express terms of the Benefit
Plans, and during the Period of Secondment, none of CMV, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their Subsidiaries shall assume any Benefit Plan or have any obligations or Liabilities arising under the express terms of the Benefit Plans, in each
case except for cost reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE III. 

GENERAL PARTNER EMPLOYEE SERVICES 

Section 3.1 General Partner Employee Services. 

Those services provided by the Seconded Employees shall be referred to herein as the “General Partner Employee
Services”. 
 Section 3.2 Cancellation of General Partner Employee Services.

 The General Partner may terminate any of the General Partner Employee Services on 30 days’ prior written
notice to Chesapeake Management; provided, however, that a complete termination of all General Partner Employee Services shall be subject to the notice provisions of the last sentence of Section 6.1. In the event the General
Partner terminates the General Partner Employee Services, the General Partner shall pay Chesapeake Management the monthly installment for the last month (or portion thereof) in which it received such terminated services. Upon payment thereof, the
General Partner shall have no further services payment obligations to Chesapeake Management pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such terminated services. 

Section 3.3 Workers’ Compensation. 

During the Period of Secondment, Chesapeake Management will maintain workers’ compensation insurance (either through
an insurance company or qualified self-insured program) which shall include and afford coverage to the Seconded Employees. Chesapeake Management will name the General Partner as an additional named insured under such insurance policy or qualified
self-insured program. Prior to being assigned any duties by the General Partner, each Seconded Employee must sign an acknowledgement that the Seconded Employee is an employee during the Period of Secondment of both Chesapeake Management and the
General Partner and that for any work place injury, the Seconded Employee’s sole remedy will be under the workers’ compensation insurance policy or qualified self-insured program of Chesapeake Management. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein shall preclude a Seconded Employee from participating in benefit programs generally available to employees of Chesapeake Management. 

ARTICLE IV. 

SERVICES REIMBURSEMENT 

Section 4.1 Operational, Management, Reporting and Routine Maintenance Expenses. 

On or before the forty-fifth day after the end of each month during the Period of Secondment, Chesapeake Management shall
send an itemized invoice (in a form mutually agreed 
  

 -10- 

 
upon by the General Partner and Chesapeake Management) to the General Partner detailing all reimbursable expenses under Section 4.2 incurred by Chesapeake Management with respect to
the Seconded Employees in connection with the performance of the General Partner Employee Services during the preceding month (the “Services Reimbursement”). The General Partner shall, within 30 days of receipt, pay such
invoice to the extent that the amounts therein are not disputed by the General Partner pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures provided for in the Services Agreement (the “Dispute Mechanism”). With respect to any
disputed amounts that are determined to be owing to Chesapeake Management through the Dispute Mechanism, such amounts will be paid within 10 days of such determination or at such earlier or later time as provided in the Dispute Mechanism.

 Section 4.2 Seconded Employees. 

4.2.1 Services Reimbursement. Subject to Sections 4.2.2, 4.4 and 4.5, the Services

(b) 401(k) plan administration costs, any cash expense for matching 401(k) contributions made by Chesapeake Management,

Trading Price on the date of the applicable contribution; 
 (c) the vesting of any restricted stock, whether
granted before or during the Period of Secondment (calculated as set forth below);

or, if paid in Units (as defined in the MICP), to the extent of the Chesapeake Entity’s out-of-pocket costs in acquiring such Units (which, for the avoidance of doubt, (i) shall include any awards granted during the Seconded

payment of Units) (“MICP Payments”);

(p) any sales taxes imposed upon the provision of any taxable General Partner Employee Services under this Agreement
provided, that, the General Partner and Chesapeake Management contemplate that the General Partner Employee Services provided pursuant to this Agreement are not taxable services for sales and use tax purposes. 

The costs and expenses described in (a) through (p) above are referred to as “Seconded Employee
Expenses.” Where it is not reasonably practicable to determine the amount of such a cost or expense, the General Partner and Chesapeake Management shall mutually agree on the method of determining or estimating such cost or expense.

  

 -12- 

 4.2.2 Reduction and Pro Ration for Shared Services. 

(a) With respect to each Shared Services Employee, Chesapeake Management will require such Shared Services Employee to
record, in quarter hour increments, the number of hours worked by such Shared Services Employee providing services to the Chesapeake Entities and the number of hours worked by such Shared Services Employee providing services to the General Partner.
For each month during the Period of Secondment, the amount of the Services Reimbursement payable by the General Partner with respect to such month shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate Chesapeake Services Costs for all Shared Services
Employees for such month. In addition, business travel and other business expenses reimbursed in the normal course by a Chesapeake Entity and incurred to facilitate the provision of the Shared Employee Services during a month will be deducted from
the Services Reimbursement due under Section 4.1 for such month. The aggregate amount of reduction against the Services Reimbursement for Shared Services Employees pursuant to this paragraph shall be referred to herein as the
“Shared Services Reduction Amount.” 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Section 4.2 or Section 4.4, the amount of any Reimbursable Severance Payment and/or Termination Costs payable by the General Partner with respect to Shared Services Employees shall be equal to the product of (x) the
amount of the Reimbursable Severance Payment or Termination Costs, as applicable, and (y) the GP Shared Services Percentage; provided, however, that Termination Costs with respect to Shared Services Employees that relate to or arise out
of any claim of discrimination or other illegality in connection with such termination that is attributable to actions or omissions by the General Partner or its employees or events that occur in the course of the services performed by such Shared
Services Employee to the General Partner shall not be subject to this Section 4.2.2(b), but shall be reimbursable, if at all, in accordance with Section 4.4(a). 

4.2.3 Calculation of Certain Reimbursable Amounts. 

(a) With respect to Medical Coverage, Chesapeake Management shall maintain or participate in a stop loss insurance policy
at a threshold coverage level of no more than $250,000, applicable on a per covered individual basis and, in the event a covered individual’s claims trigger reimbursement under such stop loss insurance policy with respect to claims incurred
during the Period of Secondment, the full amount of such reimbursement will be provided to the General Partner. The cost of maintaining such stop loss insurance coverage with respect to the Seconded Employees and their covered dependents shall be
included in the Seconded Employee Expenses. 
 (b) The costs and expenses calculated with respect to the vesting
of each share of restricted stock shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the Chesapeake Trading Price stock on the date of grant and (ii) the Chesapeake Trading Price on the date of vesting. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Chesapeake Trading Price” on an applicable date shall be the per share closing trading price of a share of Chesapeake common stock on such date, as listed by the New York Stock Exchange provided, that, if the
applicable date is not a trading day, the applicable per share closing trading price shall be the per share closing trading price on the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date. 

 

 -13- 

 (c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Severance
Payments” shall mean the severance payments and benefits paid to a Seconded Employee or Removed Employee in return for a release of claims which includes the General Partner and its Affiliates as named releasees, in an amount equal to
the greater of (i) the severance payments and benefits due to such Seconded Employee or Removed Employee under an employment agreement between Chesapeake Management and such Seconded Employee or Removed Employee and (ii) the severance
payments and benefits due to such Seconded Employee or Removed Employee under a severance policy or program mutually agreed upon between Chesapeake Management and the General Partner, provided, that the term “Severance Payments”
shall not include any amounts payable in connection with a termination of employment of a Seconded Employee or Removed Employee by Chesapeake Management that occurs more than 90 days after Chesapeake Management receives notice from the General
Partner of the termination of such Removed Employee’s Secondment. 
 (d) For the purposes of this
Agreement, “Reimbursable Severance Payments” shall mean all Severance Payments made (i) to Removed Employees whom the General Partner terminates from Secondment for reasons other than Cause (as defined below),
(ii) to Removed Employees whom the General Partner terminates from Secondment for any reason after the first anniversary of the commencement of such Seconded Employee’s Secondment, (iii) to Seconded Employees as of the Offer Date (as
defined in the Employee Transfer Agreement) to whom the General Partner does not provide an offer of employment on or prior to the Offer Date in accordance with Section 2.1 of the Amended and Restated Employee Transfer Agreement among
the Parties and (iv) to Seconded Employees who decline an offer of employment from the General Partner made on or prior to the Offer Date that would require Geographic Relocation (as defined in the Employee Transfer Agreement). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event shall any severance payment or benefit provided to a Transferred Employee (as defined in the Employee Transfer Agreement) by reason of a termination of his or her employment from Chesapeake Management or any Affiliate
thereof that results solely from the transfer of his or her employment to the General Partner constitute a Reimbursable Severance Payment for purposes of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean
the termination of a Seconded Employee’s Secondment by the General Partner because of unsatisfactory performance or as a result of dishonesty, unethical conduct, insubordination or violation of General Partner work rules as established by the
General Partner from time to time. 
 (e) The costs and expenses calculated with respect to the provision of all
sporting event tickets to Seconded Employees shall be equal to the actual cost incurred based on an arms length and non-discriminatory agreement between the Chesapeake Entities and the General Partner; provided that the amount of any costs and
expenses reimbursable by the General Partner under this Agreement and any other agreement (including, without limitation, the Shared Services Agreement and the Services Agreement, each as defined in the MLP Agreement) with respect to the provision
of sporting event tickets shall not exceed $200,000 per annum in the aggregate. Notwithstanding Section 4.1 above, the costs and expenses of providing all sporting event tickets to the Seconded Employees shall be reimbursed by the General
Partner on an annual basis (as opposed to a monthly basis). 
 Except to the extent expressly provided in this
Section 4.2, the General Partner shall have no obligation to reimburse Chesapeake Management for any Severance Payment or any other separation payment or severance benefit provided by Chesapeake Management or any Affiliate thereof to any
Seconded Employee. 
  

 -14- 

 Section 4.3 Cash Incentive Compensation. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Transfer Date under the Secondment Agreement occurs other than on
December 31 of any year during the Period of Secondment, with respect to all Seconded Employees, the Services Reimbursement shall include the amounts, if any, of all cash bonus and other cash incentive compensation payments that would be
payable to the Seconded Employees through the Transfer Date under the terms and conditions of the applicable Benefit Plans (except that Chesapeake Management may, in its discretion, consider continued employment by Chesapeake Management through
the Transfer Date as satisfying any requirement under any such Benefit Plan of continued employment through year end or date of payment) and such amounts shall be determined on a pro-rated basis for the year that includes the Transfer Date based on
the number of days that the Seconded Employee was actually seconded to the General Partner hereunder during the year in which the Transfer Date occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 4.3 shall not apply
to MICP Payments, and 100% of the MICP Payments attributable to awards made to a Seconded Employee during his or her Period of Secondment (regardless of whether such award is actually paid during or after the termination of the Seconded
Employee’s Period of Secondment) shall be included in the Services Reimbursement and the Seconded Employee Expenses to the extent that such MICP Payments are actually paid by a Chesapeake Entity and to the extent provided in
Section 4.2; provided, however, that with respect to a Seconded Employee whose Secondment is terminated but who remains employed by a Chesapeake Entity following such termination of Secondment, the amount of the MICP Payments
includable in the Services Reimbursement shall not exceed the amount of such MICP Payments that were actually paid and to the extent provided in Section 4.2 but multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which equals the number of days in such
Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment and the denominator of which equals the number of days in such Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment plus the number of days of his or her post-Secondment employment with a Chesapeake Entity
through the applicable payment date under the MICP. 
 Section 4.4 Termination Costs.

 (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the General Partner shall reimburse Chesapeake
Management for any and all Termination Costs arising out of or in any way connected with or related to claims by a Seconded Employee concerning the termination of employment of such Seconded Employee to the extent such Termination Costs are
attributable to actions, omissions or events by the General Partner or its employees that occur during such Seconded Employee’s Period of Secondment (and, in the case of a Removed Employee who is terminated by Chesapeake Management within 90
days after the date on which Chesapeake Management is notified by the General Partner that the employee has become a Removed Employee, such Termination Costs attributable to actions, omissions or events that occur during such 90 day period).
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, with respect to the Shared Services Employees, the General Partner shall have no obligation or liability with respect to Termination Costs arising out of or relating to the services provided by such Shared
Services Employees to the Chesapeake Entities. 
  

 -15- 

 (b) As to all Chesapeake Management employees who do not become Seconded
Employees, Chesapeake Management shall be solely responsible for any and all Termination Costs, Severance Payments and other severance costs and benefits relating to the employment by Chesapeake Management of such Chesapeake Employees for all
periods ending on or before the Transfer Date. 
 (c) Chesapeake Management will indemnify, defend and hold
harmless CMV, the MLP, the General Partner and their respective subsidiaries, directors, officers and employees against any and all costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), claims, demands, losses, liabilities, obligations,
actions, lawsuits and other proceedings, judgments and awards (each, a “Loss” and collectively, the “Losses” ) arising out of or in any way connected with or related to claims by a Seconded Employee
concerning the termination of employment of such Seconded Employee by Chesapeake Management in the event such termination of employment is effected without the prior written consent of the General Partner, even though such Losses may be caused in
part by the negligence of the General Partner, except to the extent that (i) such Losses arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the General Partner or (ii) Chesapeake Management terminates such Seconded
Employee’s employment as the result of the Seconded Employee’s (X) willful commission of an act of theft, fraud or dishonesty in connection with such Seconded Employee’s Secondment or employment with Chesapeake Management;
(Y) willful disclosure of Chesapeake Management’s confidential or proprietary information; or (Z) continued failure or refusal to adhere to Chesapeake Management’s employment policies, including policies prohibiting employment
discrimination and harassment, after receiving written notice of any such failure or refusal. 
 (d) Chesapeake
Management will indemnify, defend and hold harmless CMV, the MLP, the General Partner and their respective subsidiaries, directors, officers and employees against any and all Losses arising out of or in any way connected with or related to claims by
a Seconded Employee concerning the termination of the Secondment of such Seconded Employee by Chesapeake Management without the prior written consent of the General Partner, even though such Losses may be caused in part by the negligence of the
General Partner, except to the extent that (i) such Losses arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the General Partner or (ii) Chesapeake Management terminates such Seconded Employee’s Secondment as
the result of the Seconded Employee’s (X) willful commission of an act of theft, fraud or dishonesty in connection with the Seconded Employee’s Secondment or employment with Chesapeake Management; (Y) willful disclosure of
Chesapeake Management’s confidential or proprietary information; or (Z) continued failure or refusal to adhere to Chesapeake Management’s employment policies, including policies prohibiting employment discrimination and harassment,
after receiving written notice of any such failure or refusal. This indemnity does not apply to any Removed Employee. 
  

 -16- 

 (e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Termination
Costs” shall mean all liabilities incurred in connection with or arising out of the termination of employment (whether actual or constructive) with Chesapeake Management of any Seconded Employee, including liabilities relating to or
arising out of any claim of discrimination or other illegality in connection with such termination, including cost of defense of such claims, but excluding Severance Payments, provided, that “Termination Costs” shall not include any
amount to the extent that such amount arises out of or results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Chesapeake Management or any Affiliate of Chesapeake Management (other than CMV, the General Partner, the MLP or any of their
subsidiaries). 
 Section 4.5 Equity Awards; Designated Seconded Employees. 

(a) During the Period of Secondment, Chesapeake may continue to grant Seconded Employees who are not Designated Seconded
Employees (as defined below) equity-related compensation awards pursuant to the Chesapeake Energy Corporation Amended and Restated Long Term Incentive Plan, the Chesapeake Energy Corporation 2003 Stock Incentive Plan and/or such other equity
incentive compensation plan as has been or may be adopted by Chesapeake, in accordance with customary business practices applicable to employees of Chesapeake Management. Any such awards shall provide for vesting to continue based on service with
Chesapeake Management, the General Partner and any of their respective Affiliates and, with respect to any such awards that are options, if the Seconded Employee accepts employment with the General Partner after the Period of Secondment, the
transfer of such employment shall not be considered a termination of employment that would trigger the beginning of any post-termination option exercise period. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, each of Chesapeake and Chesapeake Management hereby agree that, during the
Period of Secondment and during any other time at which a Designated Seconded Employee is employed by the General Partner, it shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates, other than the General Partner, not to, grant, issue or award such Designated
Seconded Employee any equity or equity-based award with respect to securities of Chesapeake or such entity, including without limitation, shares of restricted or unrestricted stock, stock options, restricted stock units or stock appreciation rights
(collectively, “Chesapeake Equity Awards”). The Parties hereby agree that in no event shall the General Partner have any obligation or liability with respect to any Chesapeake Equity Award granted to a Designated Seconded
Employee, and that no cost or expense of or relating to any such Chesapeake Equity Award shall constitute a Seconded Employee Expense or be part of the Services Reimbursement hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, “Designated Seconded
Employees” shall mean those individuals listed on Exhibit C hereto and 
  

 -17- 

 
such other individuals identified as “Designated Seconded Employees” by mutual written agreement of the General Partner and Chesapeake Management, which agreement may be evidenced by
their execution of an updated Exhibit C. For the avoidance of doubt, awards pursuant to the MICP shall not be considered Chesapeake Equity Awards for purposes of this Agreement. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 4.5, Chesapeake and its Affiliates shall not be prohibited from making matching employer contributions in the form of Chesapeake common stock to the accounts of the Designated Seconded Employees under the Chesapeake Energy
Corporation Savings and Incentive Stock Bonus Plan or any successor 401(k) plan (the “Savings Plan”), in accordance with the provisions of the Savings Plan that apply generally to all eligible participants under such plan.

 ARTICLE V. 

ALLOCATION; RECORDS; PAYMENT 

Section 5.1 Allocation; Records. 

Chesapeake Management will maintain auditable records of the direct and indirect costs of the Seconded Employee Expenses
that reflect the General Partner Employee Services, the Services Reimbursement and the Shared Services Reduction Amount. The General Partner and its representatives will have the right from time to time, during regular business hours and on
reasonable prior notice, to audit such records and such other records as the General Partner may reasonably require in connection with its verification of the Seconded Employee Expenses, the Services Reimbursement and the Shared Services Reduction
Amount during regular business hours and on reasonable prior notice. Based on these records, the General Partner may request adjustments under Section 4.2 above. Upon request, the General Partner will provide to Chesapeake Management
such information that is within the General Partner’s control as is necessary to allow Chesapeake Management to keep and maintain books/records reflecting hours worked and costs and expenses incurred in connection with each of the Seconded
Employees, including for Shared Services. Chesapeake Management will have the right from time to time upon its reasonable request to audit such information and books/records maintained by the General Partner during regular business hours and on
reasonable prior notice. 
 Section 5.2 Payment. 

The General Partner and Chesapeake Management acknowledge and agree that Chesapeake Management shall be responsible for
paying the Seconded Employee Expenses (or providing the employee benefits with respect thereto, as applicable) to the Seconded Employees but that the General Partner shall be responsible for reimbursing Chesapeake Management for the Seconded
Employee Expenses to the extent provided under Section 4.2 of this Agreement. Subject to the General Partner’s responsibility to so reimburse Chesapeake Management, Chesapeake Management agrees to indemnify and hold CMV, the MLP,
the General Partner and their subsidiaries harmless from any and all Losses incurred by such entities related to Chesapeake Management’s failure to carry out its duties for the payment of the Seconded Employee Expenses for Seconded Employees or
the provision of the employee benefits related thereto, as set forth above, except to the extent that such Losses arise solely out of or result solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the General Partner.

 ARTICLE VI. 

TERM 

Section 6.1 Term. 

The term of this Agreement commenced on the Original Execution Date and will continue for an initial period of five

other Parties prior to the expiration of such initial period, that such Party wishes for this Agreement to expire at the end of the initial five-year period. After the initial 12-month renewal period, the term of this Agreement shall automatically

Section 7.5 Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior contracts or agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof and the matters addressed or governed hereby or in the other Transaction Documents, whether oral or written. Without
limiting the foregoing, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Agreement is being executed and delivered in connection with each of the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby,
(ii) the performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and expected benefits herefrom and therefrom are a material inducement to the willingness of the Parties to enter into and perform this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents and the transactions described herein and therein, (iii) the Parties would not have been willing to enter into this Agreement in the absence of the entrance into, performance of, and the economic interdependence of, the

Documents are necessary elements of one and the same overall and integrated transaction, (vi) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the other Transaction Documents are economically interdependent and (vii) such Party will
cause any of its successors or permitted assigns to expressly acknowledge and agree to this Section 7.5 prior to any assignment or transfer of this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise. 

Section 7.6 No Recourse. 

No Party hereto nor any Affiliate of a Party hereto shall assert or threaten, and each Party hereto hereby waives, and
shall cause such Affiliates to waive, any claim or other method of recovery, in contract, in tort or under applicable Law, against any Person that is not a Party hereto (or a successor to a Party hereto) relating to this Agreement. Without limiting
the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement may be enforced only against the named parties hereto. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon,
arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may be made only against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto; and no past, present or future Affiliate of any party
hereto, or any director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, shareholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any such party or Affiliate (including any Person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a
party hereto), unless party to this Agreement, shall have any Liability or obligation with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any claim or cause of action (whether in contract or tort) that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or
the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including a representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement). 

Section 7.7 Effect of Waiver or Consent. 

No waiver or consent, express or implied, by any Party to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by

of a Party to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any other Party in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such Party of its rights hereunder until the applicable statute of
limitations period has run. 
 Section 7.8 Amendment or Modification; Release of COI.

 This Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time only by the written agreement of Chesapeake and
the General Partner. Each such instrument shall be reduced to writing and shall be designated on its face an “Amendment” or an “Addendum” to this Agreement. The signatory Parties acknowledge and agree that, from and after the
Effective 
  

 -22- 

 
Time, COI is hereby released from any future obligations under the Original Agreement. COI is a Party to this Agreement solely for purposes of acknowledging its release from future obligations in
accordance with this Agreement but, from and after the Effective Time, COI shall have no rights or obligations under this Agreement and it shall not be considered a Party to this Agreement for any other purpose. 

Section 7.9 Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signatory Parties had signed
the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

Section 7.10 Severability. 

If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid or
unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Law. 

Section 7.11 Force Majeure. 

To the extent any Party is prevented by Force Majeure from performing its obligations, in whole or in part, under this
Agreement, and if such Party (“Affected Party”) gives notice and details of the Force Majeure to the other Parties as soon as reasonably practicable, then the Affected Party shall be excused from the performance with respect
to any such obligations (other than the obligation to make payments). Each notice of Force Majeure sent by an Affected Party to the other Parties shall specify the event or circumstance of Force Majeure, the extent to which the Affected Party is
unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and the steps being taken by the Affected Party to mitigate and to overcome the effects of such event or circumstances. The non-Affected Parties shall not be required to perform their
obligations to the Affected Party corresponding to the obligations of the Affected Party excused by Force Majeure (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of fees or other amounts with respect to any affected Seconded Employees). A Party
prevented from performing its obligations due to Force Majeure shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and to overcome the effects of such event or circumstances and shall resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable.
In their efforts to mitigate and overcome the effects of the Force Majeure, and in their efforts to resume performance, Chesapeake Management shall treat the General Partner the same as any other internal or external service recipient of the
affected Seconded Employee services, if any. “Force Majeure” means any act of God, fire, flood, storm, explosion, terrorist act, rebellion or insurrection loss of electrical power, computer system failures, finding of
illegality, strikes and labor disputes or any similar event or circumstance that prevents a Party from performing its obligations under this Agreement, but only if the event or circumstance: (a) is not within the reasonable control of the
Affected Party; (b) is not the result of the fault or negligence of the Affected Party; and (c) could not, by the exercise of due diligence, have been overcome or avoided.
