 ARTICLE III 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AND 

COVENANTS RELATED TO CONTANGO 

Contango represents and warrants to and covenants with each Purchaser as follows: 

Section 3.01 Corporate Existence. Contango has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing
under the laws of the State of Texas, with full corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and conduct its business as described in the SEC Reports, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to issue, sell and
deliver the Purchased Securities as contemplated herein. Contango is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership or leasing of its properties and assets or the conduct of
its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to either (i) have a material adverse effect on the business,
properties, condition (financial or otherwise), liquidity, results of operations or prospects of Contango and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole or (ii) prevent or materially interfere with consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
(the occurrence of any such effect or any such prevention or interference described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being herein referred to as a “Material Adverse Effect”). 

Section 3.02 Subsidiaries. Contango owns, through wholly owned subsidiaries, the issued and outstanding capital stock, membership
interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests (as applicable) of each of the entities listed on Schedule B hereto in the percentages set forth on Schedule B hereto, which constitute all direct or
indirect subsidiaries of Contango. References herein to “Subsidiaries” refer to the entities listed on Schedule B hereto. Each Subsidiary has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its organization, with full power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to conduct its business as described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure to be in good standing would not have a
Material Adverse Effect. Each Subsidiary is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership or leasing of its properties and assets or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except
where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing would not, individually or in the 

  
 7 

 
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of, or other equity interests in, each of the Subsidiaries have
been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable, have been issued in compliance with all applicable securities laws, were not issued in violation of any preemptive right,
resale right, right of first refusal or similar right and are owned by Contango or applicable Subsidiary subject to no security interest, other encumbrance or adverse claims, except for such liens, encumbrances, equities or claims granted in
connection with that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of September 17, 2019, among Contango, as borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and each of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Royal Bank of Canada and Cadence Bank, N.A.,
as joint bookrunners and the lenders from time to time party thereto, and as amended, restated or modified from time to time (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”), or as could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. No options, warrants or other rights to purchase, agreements or other obligations to issue or other rights to convert any obligation into shares of capital stock of, or equity interests in, the Subsidiaries are outstanding.
Contango owns, directly or indirectly, 37% of the outstanding limited liability company interests in Exaro Energy III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and 23.7% of the outstanding limited liability company interests in Alta Resources
Investments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. Such limited liability company interests are owned by Contango subject to no security interest, other encumbrance or adverse claims, except for such liens, encumbrances, equities or claims
granted in connection with the Credit Agreement or as could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 3.03 Capitalization. As of the date of this Agreement, Contango has 400,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 5,000,000
shares of preferred stock authorized and, prior to the issuance and sale of the Purchased Securities as contemplated hereby, has 159,493,721 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of
Contango have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, have been issued in compliance with all applicable securities laws and were not issued in violation of any
preemptive right, resale right, right of first refusal or similar right. 
 Section 3.04 Listing. The Common Stock is duly
listed, and admitted and authorized for trading, on the NYSE American. Contango has not received any notice from the NYSE American regarding the delisting or potential delisting of the Common Stock from the NYSE American. Concurrently with the
Closing, Contango shall apply to list or quote all of the Purchased Securities on the NYSE American and promptly secure the listing of all of the Purchased Securities. Contango hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the
listing or quotation of the Common Stock, including the Purchased Securities when listed, on the NYSE American and will comply in all respects with Contango’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the rules and regulations of the NYSE
American. Contango further agrees, if Contango applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other trading market, it will then include in such application all of the Purchased Securities, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause
all of the Purchased Securities to be listed or quoted on such other trading market as promptly as possible. For so long as Contango maintains a listing or quotation of the Common Stock on the NYSE American or any other trading market, Contango
agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company
or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.

have been duly and validly authorized and, when issued and delivered against payment therefor as provided herein, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of statutory

 Section 3.06
Authorization. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Contango and the other Basic Documents have been duly authorized, and will be executed and delivered by Contango on or prior to the Closing.

applicable to Contango or any of the Subsidiaries, except where such violation, default, revocation or modification would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 3.10 Litigation. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, there are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims, investigations
or inquiries pending or, to Contango’s knowledge, threatened to which Contango or any of the Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors or officers is or would be a party or of which any of their respective properties or assets is or
would be subject at law or in equity, before or by any Regulatory Authority, except any such action, suit, proceeding, claim, investigation or inquiry which, if resolved adversely to Contango or any Subsidiary, would not, individually or in the

generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis during the 

  
 10 

 
periods involved. The other financial and statistical data of Contango included or incorporated by reference in the SEC Reports are accurately and fairly presented in all material respects and

have any material liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent (including any off-balance sheet obligations), not described or incorporated by reference in the SEC Reports. All disclosures included or
incorporated by reference in the SEC Reports regarding “non-GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC) comply with Regulation G under the Exchange Act
and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, to the extent applicable. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the SEC Reports fairly
presents the information called for in all material respects and has been prepared in accordance with the SEC’s rules and guidelines applicable thereto. 

Section 3.12 Internal Controls. Contango and each of its Subsidiaries maintain effective internal control over financial reporting
(as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act) and a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that:
(i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain
accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Contango’s independent registered public accountants and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Contango have been advised of (1) all significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses, if any, in the design or operation of Contango’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and (2) all fraud, if any, whether or not material, that involves management or
other employees who have a role in Contango’s internal control over financial reporting. All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses, if any, in Contango’s internal control over financial reporting are disclosed SEC Reports. Since
the end of Contango’s most recent audited fiscal year, except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, there have not been any changes in Contango’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely
to materially affect, Contango’s internal control over financial reporting. 
 Section 3.13 Disclosure Controls. Contango
and each of its Subsidiaries maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that

communicated to management of Contango, including its principal executive officer and its principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

future operations and sales of production, was true and correct in all material respects on the dates such estimates were made and such information was supplied and was prepared in accordance with customary industry practices. Other than normal
production of reserves, intervening market commodity price fluctuations, fluctuations in demand for such products, adverse weather conditions, unavailability or increased costs of rigs, equipment, supplies or personnel, the timing of third party

unitization and pooling agreements, production sales contracts, farm-out agreements and other oil and gas exploration participation and production agreements, in each case that secure payment of

aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or as described in the SEC Reports, all of the oil and gas leases of Contango or any of the Subsidiaries and
under which Contango or any of the Subsidiaries holds properties described in the SEC Reports, are in full force and effect, and neither Contango nor any of the Subsidiaries has received written notice of any claim of any sort that has been asserted
by anyone adverse to the rights of Contango or any of the Subsidiaries under any of such leases, or affecting or questioning the rights of Contango or such Subsidiary to the continued possession of the leased or subleased premises under any such
lease, except for such claims that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Person (collectively, “rights-of-way”) as are necessary to enable Contango to conduct its business in the manner described in the SEC Reports, subject

(i) all royalties, rentals, deposits and other amounts owed under the oil and gas leases constituting the oil and gas properties of Contango and the Subsidiaries have been properly and timely paid (other than amounts held in suspense accounts

amount of proceeds from the sale or production attributable to the oil and gas properties of Contango and the Subsidiaries are currently being held in suspense by any purchaser thereof, except where such amounts due would not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) there are no claims under take-or-pay contracts pursuant to which natural gas purchasers have any makeup
rights affecting the interests of Contango or the Subsidiaries in their respective oil and gas properties, except where such claims would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 3.21 Intellectual Property. Each of Contango and the Subsidiaries owns, licenses or otherwise has the right to use all
inventions, patent applications, patents, trademarks (both registered and unregistered), trade names, service names, know-how (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable
proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures), copyrights, service marks and other intellectual property as described in the SEC Reports and which is necessary for the conduct of, or material to, its business (collectively, the

concerning the employees of Contango or any of the Subsidiaries. 
 Section 3.23 Environmental Matters. Contango and the
Subsidiaries and their respective properties, assets and operations are in compliance with, and Contango and each of the Subsidiaries hold all permits, authorizations and approvals required under, Environmental Laws (as defined below), except to the
extent that failure to so comply or to hold such permits, authorizations or approvals would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no past or present conditions, circumstances, activities, practices,
actions, omissions or plans that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any material costs or liabilities to Contango or any Subsidiary under, or to interfere with or prevent compliance by Contango or any Subsidiary with, Environmental Laws.

affected by any pending or, to Contango’s knowledge, threatened action, suit or proceeding, (iv) is bound by any decree, judgment or order or (v) has entered into any agreement, in each case relating to any actual or alleged violation

Environmental Laws on their respective properties, assets and operations, in the course of which they identify and evaluate associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for cleanup,

and the Subsidiaries and their respective properties, assets, operations, personnel and businesses in all material respects. All such insurance is fully in force. Neither Contango nor any Subsidiary has reason to believe that it will not be able to
renew any such insurance as and when such insurance expires.

 Section 3.32

 Section 3.42 Information on Shareholdings. After the Closing, Contango shall promptly and
accurately respond, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to respond, to reasonable requests for information (which is otherwise not publicly available) made by a Purchaser or its auditors relating to the
actual holdings of such Purchaser or its accounts; provided that Contango shall not be obligated to provide any information that could reasonably result in a violation of applicable law or conflict with Contango’s insider trading policy or a
confidentiality obligation of Contango. 
 Section 3.43 Removal of Legend. In connection with a sale of the Purchased Securities
by a Purchaser in reliance on Rule 144, the applicable Purchaser or its broker shall deliver to the transfer agent and Contango a seller or broker representation letter and an executed stock power with a medallion guarantee, each as applicable,
providing to the transfer agent and Contango any information deemed reasonably necessary to determine that the sale of the Purchased Securities is made in compliance with Rule 144, including, as may be appropriate, a certification that the Purchaser
is not an Affiliate of Contango and regarding the length of time the Purchased Securities have been held. Upon receipt of such representation letter and stock power, Contango shall promptly direct its transfer agent to remove the notation of a
restrictive legend in such Purchaser’s book-entry account maintained by the transfer agent, including the legend referred to in Section 4.05(d), and Contango shall bear all costs associated therewith. After a registration statement under
the Securities Act permitting the public resale of the Purchased Securities has become effective or 

  
 19 

 
any Purchaser or its permitted assigns have held the Purchased Securities for one year, if the book-entry account of such Purchased Securities still bears the notation of the restrictive legend
referred to in Section 4.05(d), Contango agrees, upon request of the Purchaser or permitted assignee, to take all steps necessary to promptly effect the removal of the legend described in Section 4.05(d) from the Purchased Securities, and
Contango shall bear all costs associated therewith, regardless of whether the request is made in connection with a sale or otherwise, so long as such Purchaser or its permitted assigns provide to Contango any information deemed reasonably necessary
to determine that the legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, including (if there is no such registration statement) a certification that the holder is not an Affiliate of Contango and regarding the length of
time the Purchased Securities have been held. 
 ARTICLE IV 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AND 

COVENANTS OF THE PURCHASERS 

Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants and covenants to Contango as follows:

performance by such Purchaser of the Basic Documents to which such Purchaser is or will be a party and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary legal action,
and no further consent or authorization of such Purchaser is required. This Agreement to which such Purchaser is a party has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by such Purchaser and constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Purchaser and, when executed by such Purchaser, the other Basic Documents to which such Purchaser is a party will be duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by such Purchaser and will constitute the legal, valid and
binding obligations of such Purchaser, in each case enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally
or by general principles of equity and except as the rights to indemnification may be limited by applicable law. 
 Section 4.03 No
Breach. The execution, delivery and performance by such Purchaser of the Basic Documents and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby does not and will not (a) assuming the accuracy of the
representations and warranties of Contango contained herein and its compliance with the covenants contained herein, violate any provision of any Law or permit having applicability to such Purchaser or the property or assets of such Purchaser,
(b) conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any provision of the organizational documents of such Purchaser, or (c) conflict with or result in a breach or 

  
 20 

 
violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement to which such Purchaser is a party or by which such Purchaser is bound or to which any of the
property or assets of such Purchaser is subject, except in the case of clauses (a) and (c), for such conflicts, breaches, violations or defaults as would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Purchaser to consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents. 
 Section 4.04 Certain Fees. No fees or commissions are or will be payable by
such Purchaser to brokers, finders or investment bankers with respect to the purchase of any of the Purchased Securities or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

Section 4.05 Unregistered Securities. 

(a) Accredited Investor Status; Sophisticated Purchasers. Such Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of
Rule 501 under the Securities Act and is able to bear the risk of its investment in the Purchased Securities. Such Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the purchase of the Purchased Securities. 
 (b) Information. Such Purchaser and its Representatives have been furnished with all
materials relating to the business, finances and operations of Contango that have been requested and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Purchased Securities that have been requested by such Purchaser and its Representatives. Such
Purchaser and its Representatives have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of Contango. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted at any time by such Purchaser and its Representatives shall modify, amend
or affect such Purchaser’s right (i) to rely on Contango’s representations and warranties contained in Article III above or (ii) to indemnification or any other remedy based on, or with respect to the accuracy or
inaccuracy of, or compliance with, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement, or any other Basic Document. Such Purchaser understands that the purchase of the Purchased Securities involves a high degree of risk.
Such Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Purchased Securities. 

(c) Cooperation. Such Purchaser shall cooperate reasonably with Contango to provide any information necessary for any applicable
securities filings required to be made by Contango in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 (d) Legends. Such
Purchaser understands that the Purchased Securities will bear a restrictive legend substantially in the form as set forth below: 
 THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED,
ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, REGISTRATION. 

  
 21 

 (e) Purpose of Purchase. Such Purchaser is purchasing the Purchased Securities for
its own account and not with a view to distribution in violation of any securities laws. Such Purchaser has been advised and understands that the Purchased Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the “blue
sky” laws of any jurisdiction and may be resold only if registered pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Act (or if eligible, pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or pursuant to another available
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act). 
 (f) Rule 144. Such Purchaser understands that the Purchased
Securities must be held indefinitely unless and until the Purchased Securities are registered for resale under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Such Purchaser has been advised by its advisors of and is aware of
the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. 
 (g) Reliance by Contango. Such Purchaser understands that the
Purchased Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on transactional exemptions from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and that Contango is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations,
warranties, covenants, acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the Purchased Securities. 

Section 4.06 No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. Such Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials
presented by or on behalf of Contango to the Purchaser in connection with the offer and sale of the Purchased Securities constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Such Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its
sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Purchased Securities. Such Purchaser understands that the Placement Agents have acted solely as the agents of Contango in this placement of the Purchased
Securities, and that the Placement Agents make no representation or warranty with regard to the merits of this transaction or as to the accuracy of any information such Purchaser may have received in connection therewith. Such Purchaser acknowledges
that it has not relied on any information or advice furnished by or on behalf of the Placement Agents. 
 Section 4.07 Short
Selling. Such Purchaser has not engaged in any Short Sales involving Common Stock owned by it between the time it first began discussions with Contango about the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the date of execution of this
Agreement. 
 ARTICLE V 

INDEMNIFICATION 

Section 5.01 Indemnification by Contango. Contango agrees to indemnify each Purchaser and its Representatives
(collectively, “Purchaser Related Parties”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands and causes of action, and, in
connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all reasonable costs, losses, 

  
 22 

 
liabilities, damages or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with
investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them), involving a third party claim, as a result of, arising out of, or in any way related to (i) the failure of
any of the representations or warranties made by Contango contained herein to be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof (except with respect to any provisions including the word “material” or words of similar
import, with respect to which such representations and warranties must have been true and correct) or (ii) the material breach of any covenants of Contango contained herein, provided that, in the case of the immediately preceding clause
(i), such claim for indemnification is made prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty; provided, however, that for purposes of determining when an indemnification claim has been made, the date upon which a Purchaser
Related Party shall have given notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the claim for indemnification) to Contango shall constitute the date upon which such claim has been made. 

Section 5.02 Indemnification by the Purchasers. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify Contango and its
respective Representatives (collectively, “Contango Related Parties”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries),
demands and causes of action, and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all reasonable costs, losses, liabilities, damages or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them), involving a third
party claim, as a result of, arising out of, or in any way related to (i) the failure of any of the representations or warranties made by such Purchaser contained herein to be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof or
(ii) the material breach of any of the covenants of such Purchaser contained herein, provided that, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (i), such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of any representation or
warranty is made prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty; provided, however, that for purposes of determining when an indemnification claim has been made, the date upon which a Contango Related Party shall have given
notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the claim for indemnification) to such Purchaser shall constitute the date upon which such claim has been made; provided, further, that the liability of such Purchaser shall not be
greater in amount than such Purchaser’s Allocated Purchase Price. 
 Section 5.03 Indemnification Procedure. A claim for
indemnification for any matter not involving a third party claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought; provided, however, that failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not preclude the
Indemnified Party from any indemnification which it may claim in accordance with this Article V, except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.01 and 5.02. Promptly after any Contango Related Party or Purchaser Related Party
(hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third Person, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an
indemnifiable claim under this 

  
 23 

 
Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action, suit or
proceeding, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such
failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter as long as the
Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle such claim, it shall promptly after such determination, and in no event later than five (5) days, notify the Indemnified
Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and/or the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but
shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control relevant to the claim. Such cooperation
of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the
Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability;
provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled (i) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and (ii) if (A) the Indemnifying
Party has, within ten (10) Business Days of when the Indemnified Party provides written notice of a claim, failed (y) to assume the defense or settlement of such claim and employ counsel or (z) to notify the Indemnified Party of such
assumption, or (B) if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified
Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party
shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be
reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof
imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, and does not contain any admission of wrong doing by, the Indemnified Party. 

Section 5.04 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification payments made under this Article V shall be
treated for all tax purposes as an adjustment to the relevant Purchaser’s Allocated Purchase Price except as otherwise required by applicable Law. 

  
 24 

 ARTICLE VI 

TERMINATION 

Section 6.01 Termination. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated at any
time: 
 (a) by any Purchaser (with respect to the obligations of such Purchaser) or Contango, upon written notice to the other party, if the
Closing shall not have occurred on or before December 2, 2020 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.01(a) shall not be available to any party whose
(i) breach of any provision of this Agreement, (ii) failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or (iii) actions not taken in good faith shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the
Closing to occur on or prior to the Outside Date or the failure of a condition in Section 2.04(b) or Section 2.04(c) to be satisfied at such time; or 

(b) by either Contango or any Purchaser (with respect to the obligations of such Purchaser) if any court of competent jurisdiction in the
United States or other United States Regulatory Authority shall have issued a final order, decree or ruling or taken any other final action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated hereby and such order, decree,
ruling or other action is or shall have become final and nonappealable. 
 Section 6.02 Certain Effects of Termination. If this
Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 6.01, except as set forth in Section 7.03, this Agreement shall become null and void and have no further force or effect, but the parties shall not be
released from any liability arising from or in connection with any breach hereof occurring prior to such termination. 
 ARTICLE VII

 MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 7.01 Expenses. All other costs and expenses, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel, financial
advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred. 

Section 7.02 Interpretation. Article, Section, Schedule and Exhibit references in this Agreement are references to the
corresponding Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified. All Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement are hereby incorporated and made a part hereof as if set forth in full herein and are an integral part of
this Agreement. All references to instruments, documents, contracts and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, contracts and agreements as the same may be amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, unless
otherwise specified. The word “including” shall mean “including but not limited to” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it.
Whenever Contango has an obligation under the Basic Documents, the expense of complying with that obligation shall be an expense of Contango unless otherwise specified. Any reference in 

  
 25 

 
this Agreement to $ shall mean U.S. dollars. Whenever any determination, consent or approval is to be made or given by any Purchaser, such action shall be in such Purchaser’s sole
discretion, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement. If any provision in the Basic Documents is held to be illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable, (i) such provision shall be fully severable and the Basic Documents shall be
construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, not binding or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of the Basic Documents, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and (ii) the parties hereto shall
negotiate in good faith to modify the Basic Documents so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to
the greatest extent possible. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to the Basic Documents, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall
be excluded. If the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day. Any words imparting the singular number only shall include the plural
and vice versa. The words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear unless the context otherwise
requires. The provision of a Table of Contents, the division of this Agreement into Articles, Sections and other subdivisions and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect or be utilized in construing or
interpreting this Agreement. 
 Section 7.03 Survival of Provisions. The representations and warranties set forth in Sections
3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.05, 3.06, 3.30, 4.02, 4.04 and 4.05 hereunder shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year, and the other representations
and warranties set forth herein shall survive for a period of six (6) months following the final Closing Date regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Contango or a Purchaser. The covenants made in this Agreement shall survive
the final Closing and remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of acceptance of any of the Purchased Securities and payment therefor and repayment, conversion or repurchase thereof. Regardless of any purported general termination of
this Agreement, the provisions of Article V and all indemnification rights and obligations of Contango and the Purchasers thereunder, Section 6.02 and this Article VII shall remain operative and in full force
and effect as between Contango and each Purchaser, unless Contango and each Purchaser execute a writing that expressly (with specific references to the applicable Section or subsection of this Agreement) terminates such rights and obligations as
between Contango and such Purchaser. 
 Section 7.04 No Waiver; Modifications in Writing. 

(a) Delay. No failure or delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any remedies that may be available to a party at law or in equity or otherwise. 

  
 26 

 (b) Specific Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, waiver,
consent, modification or termination of any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document shall be effective unless signed by each of the parties hereto or thereto affected by such amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination.
Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document and any consent to any departure by Contango from the terms of
any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand
on Contango in any case shall entitle Contango to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any investigation by or on behalf of any party shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of
compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. 
 Section 7.05 Binding Effect;
Assignment. 
 (a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon Contango, each Purchaser and their respective successors
and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and permitted
assigns. 
 (b) Assignment of Rights. Without the written consent of Contango, no portion of the rights and obligations of any
Purchaser under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by such Purchaser. No portion of the rights and obligations of Contango under this Agreement may be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of the Purchasers. 

Section 7.06 Communications. All notices and demands provided for hereunder shall be (i) in writing and shall be given by
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or personal delivery, and (ii) via e-mail, to the following addresses:

 28 

 Section 7.09 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT EACH
HEREBY WAIVES, AND AGREES TO CAUSE ITS AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED
WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.
EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY

 ARTICLE II 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

Section 2.1 Shelf Registration. 

(a) Shelf Registration. Contango shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file an initial Shelf Registration
Statement under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities at such time of filing within 30 days from the date on which the Purchased Securities are issued (the “Filing Deadline”); provided that, if permissible by law,
Contango may elect to satisfy this obligation by amending a registration statement that has been filed under the Securities Act such that it will qualify as a Shelf Registration Statement. Contango shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
cause such initial Shelf Registration Statement to become effective on or as soon as practicable after the filing thereof and no later than 90 days (or if a full review by the staff of the Commission, 120 days) from the date on which the Purchased
Securities are issued (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). Contango will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such initial Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) to be
continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earliest of (1) all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been distributed in the manner set forth and as contemplated in such Shelf Registration
Statement, (2) there are no longer any Registrable Securities outstanding and (3) three years from the Effective Date (the “Effectiveness Period”). A Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to this
Section 2.1(a) shall be on such appropriate registration form of the Commission as shall be selected by Contango. A Shelf Registration Statement when declared effective (including the documents incorporated therein by
reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any prospectus contained in such Shelf Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which a statement is made). As soon as practicable following
the date that a Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective, but in any event within one Business Day of such date, Contango shall provide the Holders with written notice of the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement. 

  
 4 

 (b) Notwithstanding Contango’s registration obligations set forth in
Section 2.1(a), if the Commission does not permit, as a result of the application of Rule 415, all of the Registrable Securities (after giving effect to all Resale Opt-Out Notices) to
be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, Contango shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the initial Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission, covering the
maximum number of Registrable Securities, applied on a pro rata basis among the Holders, permitted by the Commission to be registered on such Shelf Registration Statement. In the event Contango amends the initial Shelf Registration Statement in
accordance with the foregoing, Contango shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission, one or more Shelf Registration Statements covering those Registrable Securities that were not
registered for resale on the initial Shelf Registration Statement, as amended. 
 (c) Resale Registration
Opt-Out. At least three Business Days before the initial filing of the Shelf Registration Statement required by Section 2.1(a), Contango shall provide advance written notice to
each Holder that it plans to file a Shelf Registration Statement. Any Holder may deliver advance written notice (a “Resale Opt-Out Notice”) to Contango requesting that such Holder not be
included in a Shelf Registration Statement prior to its initial filing. Following receipt of a Resale Opt-Out Notice from a Holder, Contango shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities of such
Holder in such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (d) Delay Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Contango
may, upon written notice to any Selling Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in the Shelf Registration Statement, suspend such Selling Holder’s use of any prospectus which is a part of the Shelf Registration Statement (in which
event the Selling Holder shall discontinue sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement) if (i) Contango is pursuing an acquisition, merger, reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction and
Contango determines in good faith that Contango’s ability to pursue or consummate such a transaction would be materially and adversely affected by any required disclosure of such transaction in the Shelf Registration Statement or
(ii) Contango has experienced some other material non-public event the disclosure of which at such time, in the good faith judgment of Contango, would materially and adversely affect Contango;
provided, however, that in no event shall the Selling Holders be suspended from selling Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement for a period of 45 consecutive days or an aggregate of 120 days in any 365-day period. Upon disclosure of such information or the termination of the condition described above, Contango shall provide prompt notice (which notice shall not contain any material, non-public information regarding Contango), to the Selling Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in the Shelf Registration Statement, and shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has put into
effect and shall take such other actions necessary or appropriate to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as contemplated in this Agreement. 

(e) Failure to Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness; Liquidated Damages. If (i) Contango (A) has not filed the initial Shelf
Registration Statement with the Commission on or prior to the Filing Deadline or (B) the initial Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline (in each case, other than due to
the inaccuracy or omission of any information relating to any Holder provided in writing or required to be provided by or on behalf of a Holder to Contango for inclusion in such Shelf Registration 

  
 5 

 
Statement), (ii) during the Effectiveness Period, the Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective or the Holders are otherwise not permitted to resell Registrable Securities pursuant to
the Shelf Registration Statement other than (A) for such periods as permitted under Section 2.1(d) of this Agreement or (B) due to the inaccuracy or omission of any information relating to any Holder provided in writing or required to
be provided by or on behalf of a Holder to Contango for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, or (iii) Contango fails to satisfy the current public information requirement pursuant to Rule 144(c)(1) as a result of which the Holders are
unable to sell Registrable Securities without restriction under Rule 144 (any such failure or breach, an “Event” and the date of any Event, an “Event Date”), then each Holder shall be entitled to a payment, as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, of 0.25% of such Holder’s Liquidated Damages Base per 30-day period, which amount shall accrue daily, for the first 30 days following the applicable Event Date,
increasing by an additional 0.25% of such Holder’s Liquidated Damages Base per 30-day period, that shall accrue daily, for each subsequent 30 days, up to a maximum of 1.00% of the Holder’s Liquidated
Damages Base per 30-day period (the “Liquidated Damages”); provided, however, that no Liquidated Damages shall accrue or be payable if an Event described in clause (i)(B) above
occurred as a result of a review and comments by the staff of the Commission of the Shelf Registration Statement or the documents incorporated by reference therein and Contango uses its commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such comments and
have such Shelf Registration Statement declared effective within 270 days of the filing date of such Shelf Registration Statement. The Liquidated Damages payable pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be payable within 10 Business Days
after the end of each such 30-day period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the aggregate of all Liquidated Damages payable by Contango under this
Section 2.1(e) exceed 5.00% of such Holder’s Liquidated Damages Base. Liquidated Damages payable to a Holder shall cease to accrue when the Event is cured or the Holder no longer owns Registrable Securities, whichever
is earlier, and shall be prorated in the event Liquidated Damages cease to accrue prior to the end of the applicable 30-day calculation period. 

Section 2.2 Piggyback Registration Participation. If at any time Contango proposes to file (i) at a time when Contango is not
a WKSI, a registration statement and such Holder has not previously included its Registrable Securities in a Shelf Registration Statement contemplated by Section 2.1(a) of this Agreement that is currently effective, or
(ii) a prospectus supplement to an effective “automatic shelf registration statement” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), so long as Contango is a WKSI at such time or, whether or not Contango is a WKSI, so long as the
Registrable Securities were previously included in the underlying Shelf Registration Statement, or in any case in which Holders may participate in such offering without the filing of a post-effective amendment, in each case, for the sale of Common
Stock in an Underwritten Offering for its own account and/or another Person, other than (a) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, (b) a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction, or (c) a
registration statement on any registration form which does not permit secondary sales, then Contango shall give not less than three Business Days advance notice (including, but not limited to, notification by
e-mail; such notice, a “Piggyback Notice”) of such proposed Underwritten Offering to each Holder that, together with its Affiliates, owns more than $5.0 million of Registrable Securities,
and such notice shall offer such Holder the opportunity to participate in any Underwritten Offering and to include in such Underwritten Offering such number of Registrable Securities (the “Included Registrable Securities”) as each
such Holder may request in writing (a “Piggyback Registration”); provided, however, that Contango (A) shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities 

  
 6 

 
of the Holders in such Registration if the Holders do not offer a minimum of $5.0 million of Registrable Securities, or (B) if Contango has been advised by the Managing Underwriter that
the inclusion of Registrable Securities for sale for the benefit of the Holders will have material and adverse effect on the offering price, timing or probability of success of the distribution of the Common Stock in the Underwritten Offering, then
the amount of Registrable Securities to be offered for the accounts of Holders shall be determined based on the provisions of Section 2.2(b). If Contango is not required to offer the opportunity for a Piggyback Registration
in respect of a proposed Underwritten Offering as a result of the circumstance described in clause (B) of the proviso of the immediately preceding sentence, then Contango shall nevertheless be required to furnish to such Holders the Piggyback
Notice in respect of such proposed Underwritten Offering, which notice shall describe Contango’s intention to conduct an Underwritten Offering and, if the determination described in clause (B) of the proviso of the immediately preceding
sentence has been made at the time that the Piggyback Notice is required to be given by Contango, shall include notification that the Holders do not have the opportunity to include Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering because
Contango has been advised by the Managing Underwriter that the inclusion of Registrable Securities for sale for the benefit of the Holders will have a material and adverse effect on the offering price, timing or probability of success of the
distribution of the Common Stock in the Underwritten Offering. If the circumstance described in clause (B) of the proviso of the preceding sentence is made after the Piggyback Notice has been given, then Contango shall notify the Holders who
were provided such Piggyback Notice (or if the two Business Day period referred to in the next sentence has lapsed, the Holders who have timely elected to include Registrable Securities in such offering) in writing of such circumstance and the
aggregate number of Registrable Securities, if any, that can be included in such offering. Each Piggyback Notice shall be provided to Holders on a Business Day pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof and confirmation of receipt of
such notice shall be requested in the notice. The Holder will have two Business Days after notice has been delivered to request in writing the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering. If no request for inclusion from a
Holder is received within the specified time, such Holder shall have no further right to participate in such Piggyback Registration. If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to undertake an Underwritten Offering and prior to the
closing of such Underwritten Offering, Contango shall determine for any reason not to undertake or to delay such Underwritten Offering, Contango may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Selling Holders and, (x) in
the case of a determination not to undertake such Underwritten Offering, shall be relieved of its obligation to sell any Included Registrable Securities in connection with such terminated Underwritten Offering, and (y) in the case of a
determination to delay such Underwritten Offering, shall be permitted to delay offering any Included Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in the Underwritten Offering. Any Selling Holder shall have the right to withdraw such
Selling Holder’s request for inclusion of such Selling Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering by giving written notice to Contango of such withdrawal up to and including the time of pricing of such offering. Any
Holder may deliver written notice (a “Piggyback Opt-Out Notice”) to Contango requesting that such Holder not receive notice from Contango of any proposed Underwritten Offering; provided,
however, that such Holder may later revoke any such Piggyback Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of a Piggyback Opt-Out Notice from a Holder (unless
subsequently revoked), Contango shall not be required to deliver any notice to such Holder pursuant to this Section 2.2(a) and such Holder shall no longer be entitled to participate in Underwritten Offerings by Contango
pursuant to this Section 2.2(a), unless such Piggyback Opt-Out Notice is revoked by such Holder. 

  
 7 

 (b) Priority of Piggyback Registration. If the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters
of any proposed Underwritten Offering of shares of Common Stock included in a Piggyback Registration advises Contango that the total shares of Common Stock which the Selling Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds
the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a material and adverse effect on the offering price, timing or probability of success of the distribution of the Common Stock offered or the market for the Common Stock, then
the Piggyback Notice provided by Contango pursuant to Section 2.2(a) shall include notification of such determination or, if such determination is made after the Piggyback Notice has been given, then Contango shall furnish
notice in writing (including by e-mail) to the Holders (or to those who have timely elected to participate in such Underwritten Offering), and the Common Stock to be included in such Underwritten Offering
shall include the number of shares of Common Stock that such Managing Underwriter or Underwriters advises Contango can be sold without having such material and adverse effect, with such number to be allocated (i) if such Piggyback Registration
was initiated by Contango, (A) first, to Contango, (B) second, pro rata among the Selling Holders and any other Persons who have been or after the date hereof are granted registration rights on parity with the registration rights granted
under this Agreement (the “Other Holders”) who have requested participation in the Piggyback Registration (based, for each such Selling Holder or Other Holder, on the percentage derived by dividing (1) the number of shares of
Common Stock proposed to be sold by such Selling Holder or such Other Holder in such offering; by (2) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by all Selling Holders and all Other Holders in the Piggyback
Registration), and (C) third, to any other holder of shares of common stock with registration rights that are subordinate to the rights of the Holders hereunder and (ii) if such Piggyback Registration was not initiated by Contango,
(A) first, to the Persons initiating such Registration, (B) second, pro rata among the Selling Holders and any Other Holders who have requested participation in the Piggyback Registration (based, for each such Selling Holder or Other
Holder, on the percentage derived by dividing (1) the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by such Selling Holder or such Other Holder in such offering; by (2) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be
sold by all Selling Holders and all Other Holders in the Piggyback Registration other than the Persons initiating such Registration), and (C) third, to any other holder of shares of common stock with registration rights that are subordinate to
the rights of the Holders hereunder. 
 Section 2.3 Secondary Underwritten Offering. 

(a) S-3 Registration. In the event that a Selling Holder or a group of Selling Holders elects to
dispose of Registrable Securities under the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to an Underwritten Offering for its own account of at least $10.0 million (such amount, the “Minimum Commitment”), such Selling Holder shall give
notice of such election in writing (including, but not limited to, notification by e-mail; such notice, the “Selling Holder Election Notice”) to Contango not less than 20 Business Days before
the date such Selling Holder intends for such Underwritten Offering to commence marketing (whether on a confidential basis or on a public basis); provided that Contango shall not be required to conduct more than one Underwritten Offering
pursuant to this Section 2.3 in any 180-day period pursuant to Selling Holder Election Notices. The Selling Holder Election Notice shall specify the number of Registrable Securities

  
 8 

 
that the Selling Holder intends to offer in such Underwritten Offering and the expected commencement date thereof. Contango shall, at the request of such Selling Holder, enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters, which shall include, among other provisions, indemnities to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.8, and shall take all
such other reasonable actions as are requested by the Managing Underwriter in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities. 

(b) Notice to Holders. Not later than two Business Days after receipt by Contango of the Selling Holder Election Notice, unless Contango
determines in accordance with Section 2.1(d) to delay such Underwritten Offering (in which event Contango shall promptly notify the initiating Selling Holder in writing of such determination), then Contango shall provide
written notice (including, but not limited to, notification by e-mail) to the other Holders of Registrable Securities of the Selling Holder’s intention to conduct an Underwritten Offering and such notice
shall offer such other Holders the opportunity to participate in such Underwritten Offering and to include in such Underwritten Offering such number of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request in writing. Each such other Holder will
have five Business Days after notice has been delivered to request in writing submitted to Contango the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering. If no request for inclusion from a Holder is received by Contango within the
specified time, such Holder shall have no further right to participate in such Underwritten Offering. If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to undertake an Underwritten Offering and prior to the closing of such Underwritten
Offering, the Selling Holder giving the notice shall determine for any reason not to undertake or to delay such Underwritten Offering, such Selling Holder may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to Contango and, if the
failure of such Selling Holder to participate would cause the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities participating in the Underwritten Offering to fall below the Minimum Commitment, Contango shall notify the other Holders and, (x) in the
case of a determination not to undertake such Underwritten Offering, shall be relieved of its obligation to include Registrable Securities of any other Holder, and (y) in the case of a determination to delay such Underwritten Offering, shall be
permitted to delay offering any Registrable Securities of any other Holder for the same period as the delay in the Underwritten Offering. Any other Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Holder’s request for inclusion of such
Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering by giving written notice to Contango of such withdrawal up to and including the time of pricing of such offering. If the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters of any proposed
Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities under a Shelf Registration Statement advises Contango that the total amount of Registrable Securities which the Selling Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the
number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a material and adverse effect on the offering price, timing or probability of success of the distribution of the Registrable Securities offered or the market for the Registrable
Securities, then the Registrable Securities to be included in such Underwritten Offering shall include the number of Registrable Securities that such Managing Underwriter or Underwriters advises Contango can be sold without having such material and
adverse effect, with such number to be allocated pro rata among the Selling Holders and the other Holders who have requested participation in the Underwritten Offering (based, for each such Selling Holder or other Holder, on the percentage derived
by dividing (A) the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Selling Holder or such other Holder in such offering; by (B) the aggregate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by all Selling Holders and all
other Holders in such Underwritten Offering).

 Section 2.4 Sale Procedures. 

(a) General Procedures. In connection with any Underwritten Offering (i) under Section 2.2 of this
Agreement, Contango shall be entitled to select the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters, and (ii) under Section 2.3 of this Agreement, the Selling Holders shall be entitled to select the Managing Underwriter or
Underwriters. In connection with an Underwritten Offering contemplated by this Agreement in which a Selling Holder participates, each Selling Holder and Contango shall be obligated to enter into an underwriting agreement with the Managing
Underwriter or Underwriters which contains such representations, covenants, indemnities and other rights and obligations as are customary in underwriting agreements for firm commitment offerings of equity securities. No Selling Holder may
participate in such Underwritten Offering unless such Selling Holder agrees to sell its Registrable Securities on the basis provided in such underwriting agreement and completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities and
other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreement. Each Selling Holder may, at its option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, Contango to and
for the benefit of such underwriters also be made to and for such Selling Holder’s benefit and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement also be conditions precedent to
its obligations. No Selling Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with Contango or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Selling Holder’s ownership of
the securities being registered on its behalf and its intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law. If any Selling Holder disapproves of the terms of an underwriting, such Selling Holder may elect to withdraw
therefrom by notice to Contango and the Managing Underwriter; provided, however, that such withdrawal must be made at least one Business Day prior to the time of pricing of such Underwritten Offering to be effective. No such withdrawal
or abandonment shall affect Contango’s obligation to pay Registration Expenses. Upon the receipt by Contango of a written request from the Holders of at least $5.0 million dollars of Registrable Securities that are participating in any
Underwritten Offering contemplated by this Agreement, Contango’s management shall be required to participate in a roadshow or similar marketing effort in connection with any Underwritten Offering. 

(b) In connection with its obligations under this Article II, Contango will, as expeditiously as possible: 

(i) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Shelf Registration Statement and the prospectus
used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep a Shelf Registration Statement effective for the Effectiveness Period and as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement; 
 (ii) if a prospectus supplement will be used in
connection with the marketing of an Underwritten Offering from a Shelf Registration Statement and the Managing Underwriter at any time shall notify Contango in writing that, in the sole judgment of such Managing Underwriter, the inclusion of
detailed information to be used in such prospectus supplement is of material importance to the success of the Underwritten Offering of such Registrable Securities, Contango shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include such information in
the prospectus supplement; 

  
 10 

 (iii) furnish to each Selling Holder (A) as far in advance as
reasonably practicable before filing a Shelf Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement or any supplement or amendment thereto, upon request, copies of reasonably complete drafts of all such documents
proposed to be filed (including exhibits and each document incorporated by reference therein to the extent then required by the rules and regulations of the Commission), and provide each such Selling Holder the opportunity to object to any
information pertaining to such Selling Holder and its plan of distribution that is contained therein and make the corrections reasonably requested by such Selling Holder with respect to such information prior to filing such Shelf Registration
Statement or such other registration statement and the prospectus included therein or any supplement or amendment thereto, and (B) such number of copies of such Shelf Registration Statement or such other registration statement and the
prospectus included therein and any supplements and amendments thereto as such Persons may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement or
other registration statement; 
 (iv) if applicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the
Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Selling Holders shall reasonably request, provided
that Contango will not be required to qualify generally to transact business in any jurisdiction where it is not then required to so qualify or to take any action which would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it
is not then so subject; 
 (v) promptly notify each Selling Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of (A) the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement or any prospectus included therein or any amendment or supplement thereto
(other than any amendment or supplement resulting from the filing of a document incorporated by reference therein), and, with respect to such Shelf Registration Statement or any other registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto,
when the same has become effective; and (B) the receipt of any written comments from the Commission with respect to any filing referred to in clause (A) and any written request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to such Shelf
Registration Statement or any other registration statement or any prospectus or prospectus supplement thereto; 
 (vi)
immediately notify each Selling Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of (A) the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus contained in a Shelf Registration
Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement or any supplemental amendment thereto, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; (B) the issuance or threat of issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of

  
 11 

 
such Shelf Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement, or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; or (C) the receipt by Contango of
any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale under the applicable securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction. Following the provision of such notice, Contango agrees to as promptly
as practicable amend or supplement the prospectus or prospectus supplement or take other appropriate action so that the prospectus or prospectus supplement does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing and to take such other action as is necessary to remove a stop order, suspension, threat thereof or proceedings
related thereto; 
 (vii) upon request and subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations, furnish to each Selling Holder
copies of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence with the Commission or any other governmental agency or self-regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction (including any domestic or foreign securities exchange) relating to such
offering of Registrable Securities; 
 (viii) in the case of an Underwritten Offering, furnish upon request a
“comfort” letter, dated the pricing date of such Underwritten Offering and a letter of like kind dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement, in each case, signed by the independent public accountants who have certified
Contango’s financial statements included or incorporated by reference into the applicable registration statement, and the “comfort” letter shall be in customary form and covering substantially the same matters with respect to such
registration statement (and the prospectus included therein and any supplement thereto) and as are customarily covered in accountants’ letters delivered to the underwriters in underwritten offerings of securities; 

(ix) in the case of an Underwritten Offering, use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish upon request a letter, dated the
pricing date of such Underwritten Offering and a letter of like kind dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement, in each case, signed by the reserve engineers who have prepared reserve reports of estimated net proved oil and
natural gas reserves with respect to certain oil and gas properties included or incorporated by reference into the applicable registration statement, and the letter shall be in customary form and covering substantially the same matters with respect
to such registration statement (and the prospectus included therein and any supplement thereto) and as are customarily covered in reserve engineers’ letters delivered to the underwriters in underwritten offerings of securities; 

(x) in the case of an Underwritten Offering, use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish upon request an opinion of counsel
to Contango, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the underwriters of such Underwritten Offering; 

  
 12 

 (xi) otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12 months, but not more than 18 months, beginning with
the first full calendar month after the effective date of such registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 promulgated thereunder; 

(xii) make available to the appropriate representatives of the underwriters access to such information and Contango personnel
as is reasonable and customary to enable such parties and their representatives to establish a due diligence defense under the Securities Act; provided that Contango need not disclose any non-public
information to any such representatives unless and until such representatives have entered into a confidentiality agreement with Contango; 

(xiii) cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement to be listed or quoted on each securities
exchange or nationally recognized quotation system on which similar securities issued by Contango are then listed or quoted, and cause to be satisfied all requirements and conditions of such securities exchange or nationally recognized quotation
system to the listing or quoting of such Registrable Securities that are reasonably within the control of Contango, including, without limitation, registering the Registrable Securities under the Exchange Act, if appropriate, and using commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such registration to become effective pursuant to the rule of the Commission; 
 (xiv) use its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of Contango to enable the Selling
Holders to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; 
 (xv) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement; and 
 (xvi) enter into customary agreements and take such
other actions as are reasonably requested by the Selling Holders in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. 

(c) Each Selling Holder, upon receipt of notice from Contango of the happening of any event of the kind described in
Section 2.4(b)(vi), shall forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registrable Securities until such Selling Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by
Section 2.4(b)(vi) or until it is advised in writing by Contango that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings incorporated by reference in the prospectus,
and, if so directed by Contango, such Selling Holder will, or will request the Managing Underwriter or underwriters, if any, to deliver to Contango (at Contango’s expense) all copies in their possession or control, other than permanent file
copies then in such Selling Holder’s possession, of the prospectus and any prospectus supplement covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. 

  
 13 

 Section 2.5 Cooperation by Holders. Contango shall have no obligation to include
Registrable Securities of a Holder in the Shelf Registration Statement or in an Underwritten Offering under Article II of this Agreement if such Selling Holder has failed to timely furnish such information which, after consultation with its
counsel, is reasonably required in order for the registration statement or prospectus supplement, as applicable, to comply with the Securities Act. 

Section 2.6 [Reserved]. 

Section 2.7 Expenses. 

(a) Certain Definitions. “Registration Expenses” means all expenses incident to Contango’s performance under or
compliance with this Agreement to effect the registration of Registrable Securities in a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1, a Piggyback Registration pursuant to Section 2.2, or
an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.3 and the disposition of such securities, including, without limitation, all registration, filing, securities exchange listing and fees, all registration, filing, qualification
and other fees and expenses of complying with securities or blue sky laws, fees of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, transfer taxes and fees of transfer agents and registrars, all word processing, duplicating and printing expenses, all
roadshow expenses borne by it and the fees and disbursements of independent public accountants and counsel for Contango, including the expenses of any special audits or “comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and
compliance. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.8 hereof, Contango shall not be responsible for legal fees incurred by Holders in connection with the exercise of such Holders’ rights hereunder. In addition,
Contango shall not be responsible for any “Selling Expenses,” which means all underwriting fees, discounts and selling commissions and transfer taxes allocable to the sale of the Registrable Securities. 

(b) Expenses. Contango will pay all reasonable Registration Expenses in connection with a Shelf Registration Statement, Piggyback
Registration or Underwritten Offering, whether or not any sale is made pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, Piggyback Registration or Underwritten Offering. Each Selling Holder shall pay its pro rata share of all Selling Expenses in
connection with any sale of its Registrable Securities hereunder. 
 Section 2.8 Indemnification. 

(a) By Contango. In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this
Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Contango will indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Holder thereunder, its directors, officers, partners, members, employees, investment advisers, agents, representatives and managers, and
each other Person, if any, who controls such Selling Holder, within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the directors, officers, partners, members, employees, investment advisers, agents, representatives and managers of such
controlling Person, against any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened by any party
other than a Selling Holder (collectively, “Losses”), joint or several, to which such Selling Holder or controlling Person or directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives or managers may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact (in 

  
 14 

 
the case of any prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which such statement is made) contained in the Shelf Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by
this Agreement, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any free writing prospectus related thereto, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and will reimburse each such Selling Holder,
its directors and officers, and each such controlling Person and each such director, officer, employee, agent, representatives or manager for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any
such Loss or actions or proceedings; provided, however, that Contango will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by such Selling Holder or such controlling Person in writing specifically for use in the Shelf Registration Statement or such other registration statement, or prospectus
supplement, as applicable. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Selling Holder or any such director, officer, partner, member, employee, investment adviser, agent,
representatives, manager or controlling Person, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Selling Holder. 
 (b) By Each
Selling Holder. Each Selling Holder agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless Contango, its directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents and each Person, if any, who controls Contango within the meaning of the
Securities Act or of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from Contango to the Selling Holders, but only with respect to information regarding such Selling Holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Selling Holder
expressly for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement or prospectus supplement relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto. The maximum liability of each Selling Holder for any such indemnification shall not
exceed the amount of net proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Selling Holder’s Registrable Securities. 
 (c)
Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the
indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party other than under this Section 2.8(c) except to
the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure. In any action brought against any indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to
participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 2.8 for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected; provided, however, that, (i) if the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party or (ii) if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and 

  
 15 

 
counsel to the indemnified party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party, or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party or representation by both parties by the same counsel is otherwise inappropriate under the applicable
standards of professional conduct, then the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of
such separate counsel and other reasonable expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the indemnifying party shall not settle any indemnified
claim without the consent of the indemnified party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, includes a complete release from liability of, and does not contain any admission of wrong doing by, the indemnified party. 

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.8 is held by a court or government
agency of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to Contango or any Selling Holder or is insufficient to hold them harmless in respect of any Losses, then each such indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Contango on the one hand and of such Selling Holder on the other in connection with
the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall such Selling Holder be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of
the dollar amount of proceeds (net of Selling Expenses) received by such Selling Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification less the amount of any damages that such Selling Holder has otherwise been required
to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. The relative fault of Contango on the one hand and each Selling Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact has been made by, or relates to, information supplied by such party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this paragraph were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other
method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in the first sentence of this
paragraph shall be deemed to include any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any Loss which is the subject of this paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

(e) Other Indemnification. The provisions of this Section 2.8 shall be in addition to any other rights to
indemnification or contribution which an indemnified party may have pursuant to law, equity, contract or otherwise. 

  
 16 

 Section 2.9 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of
certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, Contango agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to: 

(a) Make and keep public information regarding Contango available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; 

(b) File with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Contango under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act; and 
 (c) So long as a Holder, together with its Affiliates, owns any Registrable Securities, (i) unless otherwise available at no
charge by access electronically to the Commission’s EDGAR filing system (or any successor system), furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of Contango, and such other reports and
documents so filed as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without registration and (ii) to the extent accurate, furnish to such
Holder upon reasonable request a written statement of Contango that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144. 

Section 2.10 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause Contango to register Registrable Securities
granted to the Purchasers by Contango under this Article II may be transferred or assigned by any Purchaser to one or more transferees or assignees of Registrable Securities; provided, however, that (a) unless the
transferee or assignee is an Affiliate of, and after such transfer or assignment continues to be an Affiliate of, such Purchaser, the amount of Registrable Securities transferred or assigned to such transferee or assignee shall represent at least
$2.5 million of Registrable Securities (based on the Common Stock Price) or, if less, 100% of the Registrable Securities then held by such Purchaser, (b) Contango is given written notice prior to any said transfer or assignment, stating
the name and address of each such transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, and (c) each such transferee or assignee assumes in writing responsibility
for its portion of the obligations of such Purchaser under this Agreement. 
 Section 2.11 Aggregation of Registrable
Securities. (a) All Registrable Securities held or acquired by Persons who are Affiliates of one another shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.

(b) All other shares of Common Stock held by a Person and for which such Person has similar registration rights pursuant to an agreement
between such Person and Contango shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining such Person’s rights under this Agreement solely as such shares relate to minimum quantity requirements contemplated herein; provided that, for the
avoidance of doubt, such Common Stock shall not otherwise be deemed Registrable Securities for any other purpose under this Agreement.

majority of the then outstanding Registrable Securities; provided, however, that no such amendment shall materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder hereunder without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 3.13 No Presumption. In the event any claim is made by a party relating to any conflict, omission, or ambiguity in this
Agreement, no presumption or burden of proof or persuasion shall be implied by virtue of the fact that this Agreement was prepared by or at the request of a particular party or its counsel. 

Section 3.14 Obligations Limited to Parties to Agreement. Each of the parties hereto covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no
Person other than the Purchasers, Selling Holders, their respective permitted assignees and Contango shall have any obligation hereunder and that, notwithstanding that one or more of Contango and the Purchasers may be a corporation, partnership or
limited liability company, no recourse under this Agreement or under any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith or therewith shall be had against any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited
partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of Contango, the Purchasers, Selling Holders or their respective permitted assignees, or any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager,
member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable law, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability
whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise by incurred by any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of Contango, the Purchasers, Selling
Holders or any of their respective assignees, or any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, as such, for any obligations of
Contango, the Purchasers, Selling Holders or their respective permitted assignees under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith or therewith or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such
obligation or its creation, except in each case for any assignee of the Purchasers or a Selling Holder hereunder.
