This Agreement, and the obligations of all Parties hereunder, may be terminated by mutual written agreement among all of the following: (a) each Company Party; (b) the Required Consenting RBL Lenders; (c) the Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders; and (d) the Required Consenting Convertible Noteholders.

12.04. Automatic Termination. This Agreement shall terminate automatically without any further required action or notice immediately after the Plan Effective Date.

12.05. Effect of Termination. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date as to a Party, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect as to such Party and each Party subject to such termination shall be released from its commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement and shall have the rights and remedies that it would have had, had it not entered into this Agreement, and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the

Restructuring or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to take had it not entered into this Agreement, including with respect to any and all Claims or causes of action. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date prior to entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court, any and all consents or ballots tendered before the Termination Date by the Parties subject to such termination shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void ab initio and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Parties in connection with the Restructuring and this Agreement or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting any Party from contesting whether any termination of this Agreement by any other Party is in accordance with its terms or to seek enforcement of any rights under this Agreement that arose or existed before the applicable Termination Date. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair, or restrict (a) any right or the ability of any Company Party to protect and preserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its Claims against any Consenting Creditor, or (b) any right or the ability of any Consenting Creditor to protect and preserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its Claims against any Company Party or any other Party.

Nothing in this Section 12.05 shall restrict any Company Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.02(d).

Section 13.Amendments and Waivers.

(a)This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or supplemented, and no condition or requirement of this Agreement may be waived, in any manner except in accordance with this Section 13.

(b)This Agreement may be modified, amended, or supplemented, or a condition or requirement of this Agreement may be waived, in a writing signed by: (a) each Company Party and (b) the following Parties: (i) the Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders, and (ii) solely with respect to any modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement that alters the rights of such Parties (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes any change to this Section 13 affecting such Parties), the Required Consenting RBL Lenders and the Required Consenting Convertible Noteholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of each such affected Consenting Creditor shall also be required to effectuate any modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement if the proposed modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement (x) has a material, disproportionate (as compared to other Consenting Creditors holding Claims within the same class as provided for in the Plan) adverse effect on any of the Company Claims held by a Consenting Creditor, or (y) changes the economic treatment provided to any Consenting Creditor.

(c)Any proposed modification, amendment, waiver, or supplement that does not comply with this Section 13 shall be ineffective and void ab initio as to any non-consenting Party affected thereby.

(d)The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising,

any right, power or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy or any provision of this Agreement, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by a Party preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or remedy or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy by such Party. All remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by Law.

(e)Any consent or waiver contemplated in this Section 13 may be provided by electronic mail from counsel to the relevant Parties.

(f)Notwithstanding Section 13(a) of this Agreement, any modification, amendment or change to the definition of “Required Consenting RBL Lenders” shall require the consent of the Company Parties and each Required Consenting RBL Lender.

(g)Notwithstanding Section 13(a) of this Agreement, any modification, amendment or change to the definition of “Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders” shall require the consent of the Company Parties and each member of the Second Lien Ad Hoc Committee holding Second Lien Notes Claims that was a Consenting Creditor and member of the Second Lien Ad Hoc Committee, as of the date of such modification, amendment, or change.

14.14. Enforceability of Agreement. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree: (i) that the provision of any notice or exercise of termination rights under this Agreement is not prohibited by the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) each Party waives any right to assert that the exercise of any notice or termination rights under this Agreement is subject to the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and expressly stipulates and consents hereunder to the prospective modification of the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code for purposes of exercising notice and termination rights under this Agreement, to the extent the Bankruptcy Court determines that such relief is required, (iii) that they shall not take a position to the contrary of this Section 14.14 in the Bankruptcy Court or any other court of competent jurisdiction and (iv) they will not initiate, or assert in, any litigation or other legal proceeding that this Section 14.14 is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, in whole or in part. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases and unless and until there is an unstayed order of the Bankruptcy Court providing that the giving of notice under and/or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms is not prohibited by the automatic stay imposed by section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, the occurrence of any of the termination events in Sections 12.01, 12.03, and 12.04, shall result in automatic termination of this Agreement, to the extent any of the Terminating Consenting Creditors would otherwise have the ability to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Sections 12.01, 12.03, 12.04, five (5) calendar days following such occurrence unless waived in writing by all of the Terminating Consenting Creditors.

It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would be an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any Party, and each non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (without the posting of any bond and without proof of actual damages) as a remedy of any such breach, including an order of a court of competent jurisdiction requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder.

14.17. Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Parties shall claim or seek to recover from any other Party on the basis of anything in this Agreement any punitive, special, indirect, or consequential damages or damages for lost profits.

No action taken by any Consenting Creditor pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute or to create a presumption by any of the Parties that any of the Consenting Creditors are in any way acting in concert or as such a “group.”

14.19. Severability and Construction. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect if essential terms and conditions of this Agreement for each Party remain valid, binding, and enforceable.

C.	Reorganized Debtors.

On the Effective Date, the New Board shall be established, and the Reorganized Debtors shall adopt their New Organizational Documents, which shall be consistent with the Governance Term Sheet.

1.	Exit Facility.

On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall enter into the Exit Facility, the terms of which will be set forth in the Exit Facility Documents, provided that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, determine that entry into the Exit Facility is in the best interests of the Reorganized Debtors, provided, further, such determination is reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders.

To the extent applicable, Confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed (a) approval of the Exit Facility (including the transactions and related agreements contemplated thereby, and all actions to be taken, undertakings to be made, and obligations to be incurred and fees and expenses to be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, in connection therewith), to the extent not approved by the Bankruptcy Court previously, and (b) authorization for the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, to, without further notice to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, (i) execute and deliver those documents and agreements necessary or appropriate to pursue or obtain the Exit Facility, including the Exit Facility Documents, and incur and pay any fees and expenses in connection therewith, and (ii) act or take action under applicable Law, regulation, order, or rule or vote, consent, authorization, or approval of any Person, subject to such modifications as the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may deem to be necessary to consummate the Exit Facility; provided that such modifications are acceptable to the Exit Facility Lenders and reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders.

and for reasonably equivalent value as an inducement to the Exit Facility Lenders to extend credit thereunder shall be deemed not to constitute a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer and shall not otherwise be subject to avoidance, recharacterization, or subordination, and the priorities of such Liens and security interests shall be as set forth in the Exit Facility Documents.

On the Effective Date, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Plan, all notes, instruments, certificates, credit agreements, indentures, and other documents evidencing Claims or Interests, shall be cancelled and the obligations of the Debtors thereunder or in any way related thereto shall be deemed satisfied in full, cancelled, discharged, and of no force or effect. Holders of or parties to such cancelled instruments, Securities, and other documentation will have no rights arising from or relating to such instruments, Securities, and other documentation, or the cancellation thereof, except the rights provided for pursuant to this Plan.

On or (as applicable) prior to the Effective Date, the appropriate officers of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall be authorized and (as applicable) directed to issue, execute, and deliver the agreements, documents, Securities, and instruments contemplated under the Plan (or necessary or desirable to effect the transactions contemplated under the Plan) in the name of and on behalf of the Reorganized Debtors, including the New DNR Equity, the New Organizational Documents, the Warrants and the Warrants Agreement (as applicable), the Exit Facility Documents, and any and all other agreements, documents, Securities, and instruments relating to the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Debtors’ D&O Liability Insurance Policies pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code effective as of the Effective Date. Entry of the Confirmation Order will constitute the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of the Reorganized Debtors’ foregoing assumption of each of the unexpired D&O Liability Insurance Policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, Confirmation of the Plan shall not discharge, impair, or otherwise modify any indemnity obligations assumed by the foregoing assumption of the D&O Liability Insurance Policies, and each such indemnity obligation will be deemed and treated as an Executory Contract that has been assumed by the Debtors under the Plan as to which no Proof of Claim need be filed.

In addition, after the Effective Date, none of the Reorganized Debtors shall terminate or otherwise reduce the coverage under any D&O Liability Insurance Policies (including any “tail policy”) in effect on or after the Petition Date, with respect to conduct occurring prior thereto, and all directors and officers of the Debtors who served in such capacity at any time prior to the Effective Date shall be entitled to the full benefits of any such policy for the full term of such policy, to the extent set forth therein, regardless of whether such directors and officers remain in such positions after the Effective Date.


Q.	Management Incentive Plan.

On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall implement the Management Incentive Plan, the principal terms of which shall be set forth in the Management Compensation Term Sheet Filed with the Plan Supplement. The New DNR Equity provided in connection with the Management Incentive Plan will dilute all of the New DNR Equity equally. The Management Incentive Plan will (i) reserve exclusively for participants in the Management Incentive Plan a pool of equity interests of Reorganized DNR (or another entity designated pursuant to the Plan to issue equity interests on the Plan Effective Date) of up to 10.0% of New DNR Equity, which may take the form of awards of equity, options, restricted stock units, or other equity instruments, determined on a fully diluted and fully distributed basis (i.e., assuming conversion of all outstanding convertible securities (including the Warrants) and full distribution of such equity pool), (ii) grant a portion of such equity pool no later than 60 days following the Effective Date, with the remainder of such equity pool to be available for future grants to participants in the Management Incentive Plan, each in amounts and on terms to be determined by the New Board in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of DNR (and such other consultants as the New Board determines), and (iii) include other terms and conditions customary for similar type equity plans.


R.	Employee and Retiree Matters and Benefits.

Unless otherwise provided herein, and subject to Article V of the Plan, all Compensation and Benefits Programs shall be assumed by the Reorganized Debtors (and assigned to the Reorganized Debtors, if necessary, pursuant to section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) and shall remain in place as of the Effective Date, and the Reorganized Debtors will continue to honor such agreements, arrangements, programs, and plans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to section 1129(a)(13) of the Bankruptcy Code, from and after the Effective Date, all retiree benefits (as such term is defined in section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code), if any, shall continue to be paid in accordance with applicable Law. The foregoing does not curtail the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to enter into additional or supplemental agreements, arrangements, programs, or plans regarding employee wages, compensation, and benefit programs.


S.	Preservation of Causes of Action.

In accordance with section 1123(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, but subject to Article VIII hereof, each Reorganized Debtor, as applicable, shall retain and may enforce all rights to commence and pursue, as appropriate, any and all Causes of Action of the Debtors, whether arising before or after the Petition Date, including any actions specifically enumerated in the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action, and the Reorganized Debtors’ rights to commence, prosecute, or settle such Causes of Action shall be preserved notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date, other than the Causes of Action released by the Debtors pursuant to the releases and exculpations contained in the Plan, including in Article VIII hereof, which shall be deemed released and waived by the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors as of the Effective Date.

The Reorganized Debtors may pursue such retained Causes of Action, as appropriate, in accordance with the best interests of the Reorganized Debtors. No Entity (other than the Released Parties) may rely on the absence of a specific reference in the Plan, the Plan Supplement, or the Disclosure Statement to any Cause of Action against it as any indication that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will not pursue any and all available Causes of Action of the Debtors against it. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all rights to prosecute any and all Causes of Action against any Entity, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, including Article VIII hereof. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the parties to the applicable Cause of Action, all objections to the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court on or before thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Any such objection that is not timely filed shall be disallowed and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from assertion against any Reorganized Debtor, without the need for any objection or responsive pleading by the Reorganized Debtors or any other party in interest or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Reorganized Debtors may settle any such objection without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. If there is any dispute regarding the inclusion of any Cause of Action on the Schedule of Retained Causes of Action that remains unresolved by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and the objection party for thirty (30) days, such objection shall be resolved by the Bankruptcy Court. Unless any Causes of Action of

the Debtors against an Entity are expressly waived, relinquished, exculpated, released, compromised, or settled in the Plan or a Final Order, the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve all Causes of Action, for later adjudication, and, therefore, no preclusion doctrine, including the doctrines of res judicata, collateral estoppel, issue preclusion, claim preclusion, estoppel (judicial, equitable, or otherwise), or laches, shall apply to such Causes of Action upon, after, or as a consequence of the Confirmation or Consummation.

The Reorganized Debtors reserve and shall retain such Causes of Action of the Debtors notwithstanding the rejection or repudiation of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease during the Chapter 11 Cases or pursuant to the Plan. In accordance with section 1123(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, any Causes of Action that a Debtor may hold against any Entity shall vest in the Reorganized Debtors, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, including Article VIII hereof. The applicable Reorganized Debtors, through their authorized agents or representatives, shall retain and may exclusively enforce any and all such Causes of Action. The Reorganized Debtors shall have the exclusive right, authority, and discretion to determine and to initiate, file, prosecute, enforce, abandon, settle, compromise, release, withdraw, or litigate to judgment any such Causes of Action and to decline to do any of the foregoing without the consent or approval of any third party or further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.


T.	Restructuring Expenses.

Promptly following the receipt of an invoice therefor, the Restructuring Expenses incurred, or estimated to be incurred, up to and including the Effective Date, shall be paid in full in Cash on the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter (to the extent not previously paid during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases) in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement, without any requirement to file a fee application with the Bankruptcy Court, without the need for itemized time detail, or without any requirement for Bankruptcy Court review or approval. All such Restructuring Expenses to be paid on the Effective Date shall be calculated or estimated as of the Effective Date, as applicable, and invoices documenting such Restructuring Expenses shall be delivered to the Debtors at least two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date; provided that such estimates shall not be considered an admission or limitation with respect to such fees and expenses. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, final invoices for all Restructuring Expenses incurred prior to and as of the Effective Date shall be submitted to the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and such invoices shall be paid in full in Cash in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement.

ARTICLE V.

TREATMENT OF EXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES


A.	Assumption and Rejection of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.

On the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided in Article V.I.1 and elsewhere herein, all Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases not otherwise assumed or rejected will be deemed assumed by the applicable Reorganized Debtor in accordance with the provisions and requirements of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, other than those that are: (1) identified on the Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule; (2) previously expired or terminated pursuant to their own terms; (3) have been previously assumed or rejected by the Debtors pursuant to a Final Order; (4) are the subject of a motion to reject that is pending on the Effective Date; or (5) have an ordered or requested effective date of rejection that is after the Effective Date, provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease shall be assumed, assumed and assigned, or rejected without the written consent of the Required Consenting Second Lien Noteholders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided that approval of the Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule and the Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule shall be sufficient consent with respect to the Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases listed therein. The assumption of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases hereunder may include the assignment of certain of such contracts to Affiliates.

Entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving the assumptions, assumptions and assignments, or rejections of the Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases as set forth in the Plan, the Assumed Executory Contract and Unexpired Leases Schedule, or the Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code. Except as otherwise specifically set

forth herein, assumptions or rejections of Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases pursuant to the Plan are effective as of the Effective Date. Each Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed pursuant to the Plan or by Bankruptcy Court order but not assigned to a third party before the Effective Date shall re-vest in and be fully enforceable by the applicable contracting Reorganized Debtor in accordance with its terms, except as such terms may have been modified by the provisions of the Plan or any order of the Bankruptcy Court authorizing and providing for its assumption. Any motions to assume Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases pending on the Effective Date shall be subject to approval by a Final Order on or after the Effective Date but may be withdrawn, settled, or otherwise prosecuted by the Reorganized Debtors.

Except as otherwise provided herein or agreed to by the Debtors and the applicable counterparty, each assumed Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease shall include all modifications, amendments, supplements, restatements, or other agreements related thereto, and all rights related thereto, if any, including all easements, licenses, permits, rights, privileges, immunities, options, rights of first refusal, and any other interests. Modifications, amendments, supplements, and restatements to prepetition Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases that have been executed by the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases shall not be deemed to alter the prepetition nature of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or the validity, priority, or amount of any Claims that may arise in connection therewith.

To the maximum extent permitted by Law, to the extent any provision in any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease assumed or assumed and assigned pursuant to the Plan restricts or prevents, or purports to restrict or prevent, or is breached or deemed breached by, the assumption or assumption and assignment of such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease (including any “change of control” provision), then such provision shall be deemed modified such that the transactions contemplated by the Plan shall not entitle the non-Debtor party thereto to terminate such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or to exercise any other default-related rights with respect thereto.

If certain, but not all, of a non-Debtor counterparty’s Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases are assumed pursuant to the Plan, the Confirmation Order shall be a determination that such counterparty’s Executory Contracts and/or Unexpired Leases that are being rejected pursuant to the Plan are severable agreements that are not integrated with those Executory Contracts and/or Unexpired Leases that are being assumed pursuant to the Plan. Parties seeking to contest this finding with respect to their Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases must file a timely objection to the Plan on the grounds that their agreements are integrated and not severable, and any such dispute shall be resolved by the Bankruptcy Court at the Confirmation Hearing (to the extent not resolved by the parties prior to the Confirmation Hearing).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, reserve the right to alter, amend, modify, or supplement the Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule and the Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule at any time up to forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date, so long as such alteration, amendment, modification, or supplement is consistent with the Restructuring Support Agreement (and subject to the consent, approval and consultation rights set forth therein).


B.	Claims Based on Rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases.

Unless otherwise provided by a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court, all Proofs of Claim with respect to Claims arising from the rejection of Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases, pursuant to the Plan or the Confirmation Order, if any, must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court within thirty (30) days after the later of: (a) the date of entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Confirmation Order) approving such rejection, (b) the effective date of such rejection, or (c) the Effective Date. Any Claims arising from the rejection of an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease not Filed with the Bankruptcy Court within such time will be automatically disallowed, forever barred from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, the Estates, or their property without the need for any objection by the Reorganized Debtors or further notice to, or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court or any other Entity, and any Claim arising out of the rejection of the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease shall be deemed fully satisfied, released, and discharged, notwithstanding anything in the Proof of Claim to the contrary. All Allowed Claims arising from the rejection of the Debtors’ Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases shall be classified as General Unsecured Claims and shall be treated in accordance with Article III.B.8 of this Plan.


C.	Cure of Defaults for Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.

No later than seven (7) calendar days before the Plan Objection Deadline, the Debtors shall provide notices of proposed Cure Amounts to the counterparties to the agreements listed on the Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule, which shall include a description of the procedures for objecting to the proposed Cure Amounts or the Reorganized Debtors’ ability to provide “adequate assurance of future performance thereunder” (within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code). Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties in the applicable Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, any objection by a counterparty to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease to a proposed assumption or related Cure Amount must be Filed, served, and actually received by the counsel to the Debtor no later than the date and time specified in the notice. Any counterparty to an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease that fails to object timely to the proposed assumption or Cure Amount will be deemed to have assented to such assumption or Cure Amount. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease is added to the Assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases Schedule after such 7-day deadline, a notice of proposed Cure Amounts with respect to such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease will be sent promptly to the counterparty thereof.

Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the parties to the applicable Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease, all requests for payment of Cure Amount that differ from the amounts paid or proposed to be paid by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors to a counterparty must be Filed with the Bankruptcy Court no later than the date and time specified in the notice. Any such request that is not timely filed shall be disallowed and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against any Reorganized Debtor, without the need for any objection by the Reorganized Debtors or any other party in interest or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Any Cure Amount shall be deemed fully satisfied, released, and discharged upon payment by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors of the Cure Amount; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Reorganized Debtors from paying any Cure Amount despite the failure of the relevant counterparty to file such request for payment of such Cure Amount. The Reorganized Debtors also may settle any Cure Amount without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall pay the Cure Amounts, if any, on the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, or on such other terms as the parties to such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases may agree. If there is any dispute regarding any Cure Amount, the ability of the Reorganized Debtors or any assignee to provide “adequate assurance of future performance” within the meaning of section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any other matter pertaining to assumption, then payment of the applicable Cure Amount shall occur as soon as reasonably practicable after entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute, approving such assumption (and, if applicable, assignment), or as may be agreed upon by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, and the counterparty to the Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease.

If the Bankruptcy Court determines that the Allowed Cure Amount with respect to any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease is greater than the amount set forth in the applicable Cure Notice, the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, will have the right to add such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease to the Schedule of Rejected Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases, in which case such Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease will be deemed rejected as of the Effective Date.

Assumption of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease pursuant to the Plan or otherwise shall result in the full release and satisfaction of any Cure Amounts, Claims, or defaults, whether monetary or nonmonetary, including defaults of provisions restricting the change in control or ownership interest composition or any bankruptcy-related defaults, arising at any time prior to the effective date of assumption. Any and all Proofs of Claim based upon Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases that have been assumed in the Chapter 11 Cases, including pursuant to the Confirmation Order, shall be deemed disallowed and expunged as of the later of (1) the date of entry of an order of the Bankruptcy Court (including the Confirmation Order) approving such assumption, (2) the effective date of such assumption or (3) the Effective Date without the need for any objection thereto or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.


D.	Preexisting Obligations to the Debtors Under Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.

Rejection of any Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease pursuant to the Plan or otherwise shall not constitute a termination of preexisting obligations owed to the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, under such Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases. In particular, notwithstanding any applicable non-bankruptcy Law to the contrary, the Reorganized Debtors expressly reserve and do not waive any right to receive, or any continuing obligation of a counterparty to provide, warranties or continued maintenance obligations with respect to goods previously purchased by the Debtors pursuant to rejected Executory Contracts or Unexpired Leases.


E.	Indemnification Obligations.

On and as of the Effective Date, the Indemnification Obligations will be assumed, irrevocable with respect to any claims relating to acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Date, and will survive the effectiveness of the Plan.


F.	Insurance Policies.

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, each of the Debtors’ insurance policies and any agreements, documents, or instruments relating thereto, are treated as Executory Contracts under the Plan. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan, on the Effective Date, (1) the Debtors shall be deemed to have assumed all insurance policies and any agreements, documents, and instruments relating to coverage of all insured Claims and (2) such insurance policies and any agreements, documents, or instruments relating thereto shall revest in the Reorganized Debtors.


G.	Reservation of Rights.

Nothing contained in the Plan or the Plan Supplement shall constitute an admission by the Debtors or any other party that any contract or lease is in fact an Executory Contract or Unexpired Lease or that any Reorganized Debtor has any liability thereunder. If there is a dispute regarding whether a contract or lease is or was executory or unexpired at the time of assumption or rejection, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have forty-five (45) days following entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute to alter their treatment of such contract or lease.


H.	Nonoccurrence of Effective Date.

In the event that the Effective Date does not occur, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction with respect to any request to extend the deadline for assuming or rejecting Unexpired Leases pursuant to section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code.


I.	Employee Compensation and Benefits.

1.Compensation and Benefit Programs.

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, all Compensation and Benefits Programs shall be treated as Executory Contracts under the Plan and deemed assumed on the Effective Date pursuant to the provisions of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, except for:


(a)	all employee equity or equity‑based incentive plans, and any provisions set forth in the Compensation and Benefits Programs that provide for rights to acquire Interests in any of the Debtors; and


(b)	any Compensation and Benefits Programs that, as of the entry of the Confirmation Order, have been specifically waived by the beneficiaries of any Compensation and Benefits Programs plan or contract.

Any assumption of Compensation and Benefits Programs pursuant to the terms herein shall not be deemed to trigger any applicable change of control, immediate vesting, termination, or similar provisions therein. No counterparty shall have rights under a Compensation and Benefits Program assumed pursuant to the Plan other than those applicable immediately prior to such assumption.

On the Effective Date, pursuant to the provisions of sections 365 and 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Management Employment Agreements shall be deemed assumed, and the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall not seek to reject the Management Employment Agreements after the Effective Date.

2.Workers’ Compensation Programs.

As of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Plan Supplement, the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors shall continue to honor their obligations under: (a) all applicable workers’ compensation laws in states in which the Reorganized Debtors operate; and (b) the Debtors’ written contracts, agreements, agreements of indemnity, self‑insured workers’ compensation bonds, policies, programs, and plans for workers’ compensation and workers’ compensation insurance. All Proofs of Claims on account of workers’ compensation shall be deemed withdrawn automatically and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court; provided that nothing in the Plan shall limit, diminish, or otherwise alter the Debtors’ or Reorganized Debtors’ defenses, Causes of Action, or other rights under applicable non-bankruptcy Law with respect to any such contracts, agreements, policies, programs, and plans; provided further that nothing herein shall be deemed to impose any obligations on the Debtors in addition to what is provided for under applicable state law.


J.	Contracts or Leases Entered Into After the Petition Date.

Contracts or leases entered into after the Petition Date by any Debtor, including any Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases assumed by such Debtor, will be performed by the applicable Debtor or the Reorganized Debtors in the ordinary course of their business. Accordingly, such contracts or leases (including any assumed Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases) will survive and remain unaffected by entry of the Confirmation Order.

ARTICLE VI.

PROVISIONS GOVERNING DISTRIBUTIONS


A.	Distributions on Account of Claims or Interests Allowed as of the Effective Date.

Except as otherwise provided herein, in a Final Order, or as otherwise agreed to by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, and the Holder of the applicable Allowed Claim or Interest on the first Distribution Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall make initial distributions under the Plan on account of Claims or Interests Allowed on or before the Effective Date, subject to the Reorganized Debtors’ right to object to any Claims or Interests; provided that (1) Allowed Administrative Claims with respect to liabilities incurred by the Debtors in the ordinary course of business during the Chapter 11 Cases or assumed by the Debtors prior to the Effective Date shall be paid or performed in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the terms and conditions of any controlling agreements, course of dealing, course of business, or industry practice, (2) Allowed Priority Tax Claims shall be paid in accordance with Article II.D of the Plan, and (3) Allowed General Unsecured Claims against the Debtors shall be paid in accordance with Article III.B.8 of the Plan. To the extent any Allowed Priority Tax Claim is not due and owing on the Effective Date, such Claim shall be paid in full in Cash in accordance with the terms of any agreement between the Debtors and the Holder of such Claim or as may be due and payable under applicable non-bankruptcy

Law or in the ordinary course of business. Thereafter, a Distribution Date shall occur no less frequently than once in every ninety (90) days, as necessary, in the Reorganized Debtors’ sole discretion.


B.	Distribution Agent.

All distributions under the Plan shall be made by the Reorganized Debtors. The Distribution Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of its duties unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. Additionally, in the event that the Distribution Agent is so otherwise ordered, all costs and expenses of procuring any such bond or surety shall be borne by the Reorganized Debtors.


C.	Rights and Powers of Distribution Agent.

1.Powers of the Distribution Agent.

The Distribution Agent shall be empowered to: (a) effect all actions and execute all agreements, instruments, and other documents necessary to perform its duties under the Plan; (b) make all distributions contemplated hereby; (c) employ professionals to represent it with respect to its responsibilities; and (d) exercise such other powers as may be vested in the Distribution Agent by order of the Bankruptcy Court, pursuant to the Plan, or as deemed by the Distribution Agent to be necessary and proper to implement the provisions hereof.

2.Expenses Incurred On or After the Effective Date.

Except as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, the amount of any reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Distribution Agent on or after the Effective Date (including taxes), and any reasonable compensation and expense reimbursement claims (including reasonable attorney fees and expenses), made by the Distribution Agent shall be paid in Cash by the Reorganized Debtors.


D.	Delivery of Distributions and Undeliverable or Unclaimed Distributions.

1.Record Date for Distribution.

On the Distribution Record Date, the Claims Register shall be closed and any party responsible for making distributions shall instead be authorized and entitled to recognize only those record holders listed on the Claims Register as of the close of business on the Distribution Record Date. If a Claim, other than one based on a publicly traded Security, is transferred twenty (20) or fewer days before the Distribution Record Date, the Distribution Agent shall make distributions to the transferee only to the extent practical and, in any event, only if the relevant transfer form contains an unconditional and explicit certification and waiver of any objection to the transfer by the transferor.

2.Delivery of Distributions in General.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Distribution Agent shall make distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests (as applicable) as of the Distribution Record Date at the address for each such Holder as indicated on the Debtors’ records as of the date of any such distribution; provided, however, that the manner of such distributions shall be determined at the discretion of the Reorganized Debtors.

3.Delivery of Distributions on Second Lien Notes Claims, Convertible Notes Claims, and Subordinated Notes Claims.

The Second Lien Notes Trustee shall be deemed to be the Holder of all Allowed Class 5 Claims, the Convertible Notes Trustee shall be deemed to be the Holder of all Allowed Class 6 Claims, and the Subordinated Notes Trustee shall be deemed to be the Holder of all Allowed Class 7 Claims, for purposes of distributions to be made hereunder, and all distributions on account of such Allowed Claims shall be deemed to have been made at the direction of the applicable indenture trustee, and subject to the Indenture Trustees’ Charging Liens. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, and without limiting the exculpation and release provisions of the Plan, the Second Lien Notes Trustee, the Convertible Notes Trustee, or the Subordinated Notes Trustee shall not have any liability to

any Entity with respect to distributions directed to be made by the Second Lien Notes Trustee, Convertible Notes Trustee, or the Subordinated Notes Trustee.

4.Minimum Distributions.

No fractional shares of New DNR Equity or Warrants shall be distributed and no Cash shall be distributed in lieu of such fractional amounts. When any distribution pursuant to the Plan on account of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest (as applicable) would otherwise result in the issuance of a number of shares of New DNR Equity or Warrants that is not a whole number, the actual distribution of shares of New DNR Equity or Warrants shall be rounded as follows: (a) fractions of one‑half (½) or greater shall be rounded to the next higher whole number and (b) fractions of less than one-half (½) shall be rounded to the next lower whole number with no further payment therefor. The total number of authorized shares of New DNR Equity or Warrants to be distributed to Holders of Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests hereunder shall be adjusted as necessary to account for the foregoing rounding.

5.Undeliverable Distributions and Unclaimed Property.

In the event that any distribution to any Holder of Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests (as applicable) is returned as undeliverable, no distribution to such Holder shall be made unless and until the Distribution Agent has determined the then-current address of such Holder, at which time such distribution shall be made to such Holder without interest; provided, however, that such distributions shall be deemed unclaimed property under section 347(b) of the Bankruptcy Code at the expiration of six months from the Effective Date. After such date, all Unclaimed Distributions shall revest in the applicable Reorganized Debtor automatically and without need for a further order by the Bankruptcy Court (notwithstanding any applicable federal, provincial or state escheat, abandoned, or unclaimed property laws to the contrary) and, to the extent such Unclaimed Distribution is comprised of New DNR Equity, such New DNR Equity shall be canceled. Upon such revesting, the Claim of the Holder or its successors with respect to such property shall be canceled, discharged, and forever barred notwithstanding any applicable federal or state escheat, abandoned, or unclaimed property laws, or any provisions in any document governing the distribution that is an Unclaimed Distribution, to the contrary.

If any distribution to a Holder of an Allowed Claim is returned to the Distribution Agent as undeliverable, no further distributions shall be made to such Holder unless and until the Distribution Agent is notified in writing of such Holder’s then-current address or other necessary information for delivery, at which time all currently due missed distributions shall be made to such Holder on the next Distribution Date. Undeliverable distributions shall remain in the possession of the Reorganized Debtors until such time as a distribution becomes deliverable, or such distribution reverts to the Reorganized Debtors or is canceled pursuant to this Article VI.D.5 of the Plan, and shall not be supplemented with any interest, dividends, or other accruals of any kind.

6.Surrender of Canceled Instruments or Securities.

On the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, each Holder of a certificate or instrument evidencing a Claim or an Interest shall be deemed to have surrendered such certificate or instrument to the Distribution Agent. Such surrendered certificate or instrument shall be cancelled solely with respect to the Debtors, and such cancellation shall not alter the obligations or rights of any non-Debtor third parties vis-à-vis one another with respect to such certificate or instrument, including with respect to any indenture or agreement that governs the rights of the Holder of a Claim or Interest, which shall continue in effect for purposes of allowing Holders to receive distributions under the Plan, charging liens, priority of payment, and indemnification rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this paragraph shall not apply to certificates or instruments evidencing Claims that are Unimpaired under the Plan.


E.	Manner of Payment.

1.All distributions of the New DNR Equity and Warrants to the Holders of the applicable Allowed Claims or Allowed Interests under the Plan shall be made by the Distribution Agent on behalf of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as applicable.

2.All distributions of Cash to the Holders of the applicable Allowed Claim under the Plan shall be made by the Distribution Agent on behalf of the applicable Debtor or Reorganized Debtor.

3.At the option of the Distribution Agent, any Cash payment to be made hereunder may be made by check or wire transfer or as otherwise required or provided in applicable agreements.


F.	Section 1145 Exemption.

Pursuant to section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, the offering, issuance, and distribution of the New DNR Equity and the Warrants, as contemplated by Article III.B hereof, shall be exempt from, among other things, the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable Law requiring registration prior to the offering, issuance, distribution, or sale of Securities. In addition, under section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, such New DNR Equity and the Warrants will be freely tradable in the U.S. by the recipients thereof, subject to the provisions of (i) section 1145(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code relating to the definition of an underwriter in section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, (ii) compliance with applicable securities laws and any rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, if any, applicable at the time of any future transfer of such Securities, and (iii) any restrictions in the New Organizational Documents.


G.	Compliance with Tax Requirements.

In connection with the Plan, to the extent applicable, the Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, Distribution Agent, and any applicable withholding agent shall comply with all tax withholding and reporting requirements imposed on them by any Governmental Unit, and all distributions made pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to such withholding and reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, such parties shall be authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply with such withholding and reporting requirements, including liquidating a portion of the distribution to be made under the Plan to generate sufficient funds to pay applicable withholding taxes, withholding distributions pending receipt of information necessary to facilitate such distributions, or establishing any other mechanisms they believe are reasonable and appropriate. The Debtors and Reorganized Debtors reserve the right to allocate all distributions made under the Plan in compliance with all applicable wage garnishments, alimony, child support, and similar spousal awards, Liens, and encumbrances. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, each Holder of an Allowed Claim or Interest shall have the sole and exclusive responsibility for the satisfaction and payment of any tax obligations imposed by any Governmental Unit, including income, withholding, and other tax obligations, on account of such distribution.


H.	Allocations.

Distributions in respect of Allowed Claims shall be allocated first to the principal amount of such Claims (as determined for federal income tax purposes) and then, to the extent the consideration exceeds the principal amount of the Claims, to any portion of such Claims for accrued but unpaid interest.


I.	No Postpetition Interest on Claims.

Unless otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or by order of the Bankruptcy Court, postpetition interest shall not accrue or be paid on any prepetition Claims, and no Holder of a Claim shall be entitled to interest accruing on or after the Petition Date on any Claim or right. Additionally, and without limiting the foregoing, interest shall not accrue or be paid on any Disputed Claim with respect to the period from the Effective Date to the date a final distribution is made on account of such Disputed Claim, if and when such Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim.


J.	Foreign Currency Exchange Rate.

Except as otherwise provided in a Bankruptcy Court order, as of the Effective Date, any Claim asserted in currency other than U.S. dollars shall be automatically deemed converted to the equivalent U.S. dollar value using the exchange rate for the applicable currency as published in The Wall Street Journal, National Edition, on the Effective Date.


K.	Setoffs and Recoupment.

Except as expressly provided in this Plan, each Reorganized Debtor may, pursuant to section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code, set off and/or recoup against any Plan Distributions to be made on account of any Allowed Claim, any and all claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Reorganized Debtor may hold against the Holder of such Allowed Claim to the extent such setoff or recoupment is either (1) agreed in amount among the relevant Reorganized Debtor(s) and the Holder of the Allowed Claim or (2) otherwise adjudicated by the Bankruptcy Court or another court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that neither the failure to effectuate a setoff or recoupment nor the allowance of any Claim hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release by a Reorganized Debtor or its successor of any and all claims, rights, and Causes of Action that such Reorganized Debtor or its successor may possess against the applicable Holder. In no event shall any Holder of a Claim be entitled to recoup such Claim against any claim, right, or Cause of Action of the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, unless such Holder actually has performed such recoupment and provided notice thereof in writing to the Debtors in accordance with Article XII.G hereof on or before the Effective Date, notwithstanding any indication in any Proof of Claim or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of recoupment.


L.	Claims Paid or Payable by Third Parties.

1.Claims Paid by Third Parties.

The Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall reduce in full a Claim, and such Claim shall be disallowed without a Claims objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, to the extent that the Holder of such Claim receives payment in full on account of such Claim from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor. Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, to the extent a Holder of a Claim receives a distribution on account of such Claim and receives payment from a party that is not a Debtor or a Reorganized Debtor on account of such Claim, such Holder shall, within fourteen (14) days of receipt thereof, repay or return the distribution to the applicable Reorganized Debtor, to the extent the Holder’s total recovery on account of such Claim from the third party and under the Plan exceeds the amount of such Claim as of the date of any such distribution under the Plan. The failure of such Holder to timely repay or return such distribution shall result in the Holder owing the applicable Reorganized Debtor annualized interest at the Federal Judgment Rate on such amount owed for each Business Day after the fourteen (14) day grace period specified above until the amount is repaid.

2.Claims Payable by Third Parties.

No distributions under the Plan shall be made on account of an Allowed Claim that is payable pursuant to one of the Debtors’ insurance policies until the Holder of such Allowed Claim has exhausted all remedies with respect to such insurance policy. To the extent that one or more of the Debtors’ insurers agrees to satisfy in full or in part a Claim (if and to the extent adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction), then immediately upon such insurers’ agreement, the applicable portion of such Claim may be expunged without a Claims objection having to be Filed and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

3.Applicability of Insurance Policies.

Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims shall be in accordance with the provisions of any applicable insurance policy. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any Cause of Action that the Debtors or any Entity may hold against any other Entity, including insurers under any policies of insurance, nor shall anything contained herein constitute or be deemed a waiver by such insurers of any defenses, including coverage defenses, held by such insurers.

ARTICLE VII.

PROCEDURES FOR RESOLVING CONTINGENT,

UNLIQUIDATED, AND DISPUTED CLAIMS

A.Disputed Claims Process.

There is no requirement to file a Proof of Claim (or move the Bankruptcy Court for allowance) to have a Claim Allowed for the purposes of the Plan, except as provided in Article V.B of the Plan. On and after the Effective Date, except as otherwise provided in this Plan, all Allowed Claims shall be satisfied in the ordinary court of business of the Reorganized Debtors. The Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, shall have the exclusive authority to (i) determine, without the need for notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court, that a claim subject to any Proof of Claim that is Filed is Allowed and (ii) file, settle, compromise, withdraw, or litigate to judgment any objections to Claims as permitted under this Plan. If the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors dispute any Claim, such dispute shall be determined, resolved, or adjudicated, as the case may be, in the manner as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced and shall survive the Effective Date as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced; provided that the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may elect, at their sole option, to object to any Claim (other than Claims expressly Allowed by this Plan) and to have the validity or amount of any Claim adjudicated by the Bankruptcy Court; provided, further, that Holders of Claims may elect to resolve the validity or amount of any Claim in the Bankruptcy Court. If a Holder makes such an election, the Bankruptcy Court shall apply the Law that would have governed the dispute if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been filed. All Proofs of Claim Filed in the Chapter 11 Cases shall be considered objected to and Disputed without further action by the Debtors. Except as otherwise provided herein, all Proofs of Claim Filed after the Effective Date shall be disallowed and forever barred, estopped, and enjoined from assertion, and shall not be enforceable against any Reorganized Debtor, without the need for any objection by the Reorganized Debtors or any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.


B.	Allowance of Claims.

After the Effective Date, each of the Reorganized Debtors shall have and retain any and all rights and defenses such Debtor had with respect to any Claim or Interest immediately prior to the Effective Date. The Debtors may affirmatively determine to deem Unimpaired Claims Allowed to the same extent such Claims would be allowed under applicable non-bankruptcy Law.


C.	Claims Administration Responsibilities.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the sole authority: (1) to File, withdraw, or litigate to judgment, objections to Claims or Interests; (2) to settle or compromise any Disputed Claim without any further notice to or action, order, or approval by the Bankruptcy Court; and (3) to administer and adjust the Claims Register to reflect any such settlements or compromises without any further notice to or action, order, or approval by the Bankruptcy Court. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise provided herein, from and after the Effective Date, each Reorganized Debtor shall have and retain any and all rights and defenses such Debtor had immediately prior to the Effective Date with respect to any Disputed Claim or Interest, including the Causes of Action retained pursuant to Article IV.S of the Plan.

Any objections to Claims and Interests other than General Unsecured Claims shall be served and filed on or before the 180th day after the Effective Date or by such later date as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. All Claims and Interests other than General Unsecured Claims not objected to by the end of such 180-day period shall be deemed Allowed unless such period is extended upon approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to dispute and/or otherwise object to any General Unsecured Claim in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable non-bankruptcy Law. If the Debtors, or Reorganized Debtors dispute any General Unsecured Claim, such dispute shall be determined, resolved, or adjudicated, as the case may be, in the manner as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced. In any action or proceeding to determine the existence, validity, or amount of any General Unsecured

Claim, any and all claims or defenses that could have been asserted by the applicable Debtor(s) or the Entity holding such General Unsecured Claim are preserved as if the Chapter 11 Cases had not been commenced.


D.	Adjustment to Claims or Interests without Objection.

Any duplicate Claim or Interest or any Claim or Interest that has been paid, satisfied, amended, or superseded may be adjusted or expunged on the Claims Register by the Reorganized Debtors without the Reorganized Debtors having to File an application, motion, complaint, objection, or any other legal proceeding seeking to object to such Claim or Interest and without any further notice to or action, order, or approval of the Bankruptcy Court.


E.	Estimation of Claims.

Before, on, or after the Effective Date, the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, may (but are not required to) at any time request that the Bankruptcy Court estimate any Claim pursuant to applicable Law, including pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code and/or Bankruptcy Rule 3012 for any reason, regardless of whether any party previously has objected to such Claim or whether the Bankruptcy Court has ruled on any such objection, and the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction to estimate any such Claim, including during the litigation of any objection to any Claim or during the pendency of any appeal relating to such objection. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan, a Claim that has been expunged from the Claims Register, but that either is subject to appeal or has not been the subject of a Final Order, shall be deemed to be estimated at zero dollars, unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court. In the event that the Bankruptcy Court estimates any Claim and does not provide otherwise, such estimated amount shall constitute a maximum limitation on such Claim for all purposes under the Plan (including for purposes of distributions and discharge) and may be used as evidence in any supplemental proceedings, and the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors may elect to pursue any supplemental proceedings to object to any ultimate distribution on such Claim. Notwithstanding section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code, in no event shall any Holder of a Claim that has been estimated pursuant to section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise be entitled to seek reconsideration of such estimation unless such Holder has Filed a motion requesting the right to seek such reconsideration on or before seven (7) days after the date on which such Claim is estimated. Each of the foregoing Claims and objection, estimation, and resolution procedures are cumulative and not exclusive of one another. Claims may be estimated and subsequently compromised, settled, withdrawn, or resolved by any mechanism approved by the Bankruptcy Court.


F.	Disallowance of Claims or Interests.

All Claims and Interests of any Entity from which property is sought by the Debtors under sections 542, 543, 550, or 553 of the Bankruptcy Code or that the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors allege is a transferee of a transfer that is avoidable under sections 522(f), 522(h), 544, 545, 547, 548, 549, or 724(a) of the Bankruptcy Code shall be disallowed if: (a) the Entity, on the one hand, and the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, as applicable, on the other hand, agree or the Bankruptcy Court has determined by Final Order that such Entity or transferee is liable to turn over any property or monies under any of the aforementioned sections of the Bankruptcy Code; and (b) such Entity or transferee has failed to turn over such property by the date set forth in such agreement or Final Order.


G.	No Distributions Pending Allowance.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if any portion of a Claim or Interest is a Disputed Claim or Interest, as applicable, no payment or distribution provided hereunder shall be made on account of such Claim or Interest unless and until such Disputed Claim or Interest becomes an Allowed Claim or Interest; provided that if only the Allowed amount of an otherwise valid Claim or Interest is Disputed, such Claim or Interest shall be deemed Allowed in the amount not Disputed and payment or distribution shall be made on account of such undisputed amount.


H.	Distributions After Allowance.

To the extent that a Disputed Claim or Interest ultimately becomes an Allowed Claim or Interest, distributions (if any) shall be made to the Holder of such Allowed Claim or Interest in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date that the order or judgment of the Bankruptcy Court allowing any

Disputed Claim or Interest becomes a Final Order, the Distribution Agent shall provide to the Holder of such Claim or Interest the distribution (if any) to which such Holder is entitled under the Plan as of the Effective Date, without any interest to be paid on account of such Claim or Interest.

The Exculpated Parties have, and upon confirmation of the Plan shall be deemed to have, participated in good faith and in compliance with the applicable laws with regard to the solicitation of votes and distribution of consideration pursuant to the Plan and, therefore, are not, and on account of such distributions shall not be, liable at any time for the violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation governing the solicitation of acceptances or rejections of the Plan or such distributions made pursuant to the Plan.


E.	Injunction.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or for obligations issued or required to be paid pursuant to the Plan or the Confirmation Order, all Entities who have held, hold, or may hold Claims or Interests that have been released, discharged, or are subject to exculpation are permanently enjoined, from and after the Effective Date, from taking any of the following actions against, as applicable, the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, the Exculpated Parties, or the Released Parties: (1) commencing or continuing in any manner any action, suit or other proceeding of any kind on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claims or Interests; (2) enforcing, attaching, collecting, or recovering by any manner or means any judgment, award, decree, or order against such Entities on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claims or Interests; (3) creating, perfecting, or enforcing any encumbrance of any kind against such Entities or the property or the estates of such Entities on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claims or Interests; (4) asserting any right of setoff, subrogation, or recoupment of any kind against any obligation due from such Entities or against the property of such Entities on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claims or Interests unless such Holder has Filed a motion requesting the right to perform such setoff on or before the Effective Date, and notwithstanding an indication of a Claim or Interest or otherwise that such Holder asserts, has, or intends to preserve any right of setoff pursuant to applicable Law or otherwise; and (5) commencing or continuing in any manner any action or other proceeding of any kind on account of or in connection with or with respect to any such Claims or Interests released or settled pursuant to the Plan.

Each Holder of an Allowed Claim or Allowed Interest, as applicable, by accepting, or being eligible to accept, distributions under or Reinstatement of such Claim or Interest, as applicable, pursuant to the Plan, shall be deemed to have consented to the injunction provisions set forth in this Article VIII.E.


F.	Protections Against Discriminatory Treatment.

Consistent with section 525 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution, all Entities, including Governmental Entities, shall not discriminate against the Reorganized Debtors or deny, revoke, suspend, or refuse to renew a license, permit, charter, franchise, or other similar grant to, condition such a grant to, discriminate with respect to such a grant against, the Reorganized Debtors, or another Entity with whom the Reorganized Debtors have been associated, solely because each Debtor has been a debtor under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, has been insolvent before the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases (or during the Chapter 11 Cases but before the Debtors are granted or denied a discharge), or has not paid a debt that is dischargeable in the Chapter 11 Cases.


G.	Release of Liens.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, the Exit Facility Documents, or in any contract, instrument, release, or other agreement or document created pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date and concurrently with the applicable distributions made pursuant to the Plan and, in the case of a Secured Claim, satisfaction in full of the portion of the Secured Claim that is Allowed as of the Effective Date, except for Other Secured Claims that the Debtors elect to Reinstate or Hedge Claims with respect to which the applicable counterparty has agreed to Reinstatement in accordance with the Plan, all mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests against any property of the Estates shall be automatically and fully released and discharged, and all of the right, title, and interest of any Holder of such mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, or other security interests shall revert to the Reorganized Debtors and their successors and assigns, in each case, without any further approval or order of the Bankruptcy Court and without any action or Filing being required to be made by the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or any other Holder of a Secured Claim. Any Holder of such Secured Claims (and the applicable agent for such Holder) shall be authorized and directed to release any collateral or other property of the Debtors (including any cash collateral and possessory collateral) held by such Holders (and the applicable agent for such Holders), and to take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the Reorganized Debtors to evidence the release of such Liens and/or security interests, including the execution, delivery, and filing or recording of all documents reasonably requested by the Debtors, Reorganized Debtors, or the Exit Facility Agent to evidence the release of such mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, and other security interests. The presentation or filing of the Confirmation Order to or with any federal, state, provincial, or local agency, records office, or department shall constitute good and sufficient evidence of, but shall not be required to effect, the termination of such mortgages, deeds of trust, Liens, pledges, and other security interests.

To the extent that any Holder of a Secured Claim that has been satisfied or discharged in full pursuant to the Plan, or any agent for such Holder, has filed or recorded publicly any Liens and/or security interests to secure such Holder’s Secured Claim, then as soon as practicable on or after the Effective Date, such Holder (or the agent for such Holder) shall take any and all steps requested by the Debtors, the Reorganized Debtors, or Exit Facility Agent that are necessary or desirable to record or effectuate the cancellation and/or extinguishment of such Liens and/or security interests, including the making of any applicable filings or recordings, and the Reorganized Debtors shall be entitled to make any such filings or recordings on such Holder’s behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, this Article VIII.G shall not apply to any Secured Claims that are Reinstated pursuant to the terms of this Plan.


H.	Document Retention.

On and after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may maintain documents in accordance with their standard document retention policy, as may be altered, amended, modified, or supplemented by the Reorganized Debtors.


I.	Reimbursement or Contribution.

If the Bankruptcy Court disallows a Claim for reimbursement or contribution of an Entity pursuant to section 502(e)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code, then to the extent that such Claim is contingent as of the time of allowance or disallowance, such Claim shall be forever disallowed and expunged notwithstanding section 502(j) of the Bankruptcy Code, unless prior to the Confirmation Date: (1) such Claim has been adjudicated as non‑contingent or (2) the relevant

Holder of a Claim has Filed a non-contingent Proof of Claim on account of such Claim and a Final Order has been entered prior to the Confirmation Date determining such Claim as no longer contingent.

The Borrowing Base shall be re-determined on January 1, 2021 and July 1, 2021 (or, in each case, such date reasonably practicable thereafter), based upon a reserve report prepared as of the immediately preceding September 30, 2020 (with regard to the January 1, 2021 redetermination) and December 31, 2020 (with regard to the July 1, 2021 redetermination), and delivered on or before December 1, 2020 (with regard to the January 1, 2021 redetermination) and June 1, 2021 (with regard to the July 1, 2021 redetermination) (each such reserve report, together with the Initial Reserve Report, each a “Reserve Report”), and other related information, if any, required to be delivered to the Post-Petition Agent in accordance with the Post-Petition Credit Agreement. Each Reserve Report shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Post-Petition Agent. The Reserve Report prepared as of September 30, 2020 shall be prepared by or under the supervision of the chief engineer of the Borrower who shall certify such Reserve Report to be true and accurate in all material respects and to have been prepared in accordance with procedures used in the Initial Reserve Report.

	The Borrowing Base shall be proposed by the Post-Petition Agent and approved by all of the Post-Petition Lenders (in the case of increases) or the Required Post-Petition Lenders (as hereinafter defined) (in the case of decreases or reaffirmation) as provided below. Each determination of the Borrowing Base shall be made by the Post-Petition Agent and, (i) to the extent any determination represents an increase in the Borrowing Base in effect immediately prior to such determination, all of the Post-Petition Lenders, and (ii) to the extent any determination represents a decrease in or reaffirmation of the Borrowing Base in effect immediately prior to such determination, the Required Post-Petition Lenders, in each case, in their respective sole discretion, but in good faith in accordance with their respective usual and customary oil and gas lending criteria as they exist at the particular time and as specified in the DIP Facility Documentation; provided that no Post-Petition Lender shall be required to increase its commitment amount under the DIP Facility in connection with an increase in the Borrowing Base.
	To the extent any re-determination represents an increase in the Borrowing Base in effect immediately prior to such re-determination, such Borrowing Base will be the largest amount approved by all of the Post-Petition Lenders, and to the extent any re-determination represents a decrease in, or reaffirmation of, the Borrowing Base in effect prior to such re-determination, such Borrowing Base will be the largest amount approved by the Required Post-Petition Lenders.
Interest Rates and Fees:	As set forth on Annex I attached hereto.
Default Rate:	With respect to overdue principal, the applicable interest rate plus 2.00% per annum, and with respect to any other overdue amount, including overdue interest, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans plus 2.00% per annum.

DIP Letters of Credit will be issued by JPMCB or any of its affiliates (the “Issuing Lender”). For the avoidance of doubt, upon entry of the Interim Order, all outstanding Pre-Prepetition Letters of Credit issued by any Pre-Petition Lender (to the extent it is a Post-Petition Lender) shall be deemed to be issued as DIP Letters of Credit under the DIP Facility and shall constitute obligations due under the DIP Facility.
	Drawings under any DIP Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrower (whether with its own funds or with the proceeds of borrowings under the DIP Facility) within one business day after notice of such drawing is received by the Borrower from the Issuing Lender. To the extent that the Borrower does not reimburse the Issuing Lender within the time period specified above, the Post-Petition Lenders under the DIP Facility shall be irrevocably obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender pro rata based upon their respective DIP Commitments.
Final Maturity:	All commitments of the Post-Petition Lenders under the DIP Facility shall terminate at the earliest of (herein, a “Post-Petition Default”, and the earliest of which, the “Maturity Date”): (a) the date which is twelve (12) months after the Petition Date; (b) the consummation of a sale of all or substantially all of the Debtors’ assets pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code; (c) the effective date of any plan of reorganization; (d) the entry of an order for the conversion of any of the Debtors’ bankruptcy cases to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code; (e) the entry of an order for the dismissal of any of the Debtors’ bankruptcy cases; (f) the date of acceleration of the DIP Obligations and the termination of the DIP Commitments upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in accordance with the DIP Facility Documentation; (g) thirty-five (35) days after the Petition Date, if the Final Order has not been entered by such date (which date may be extended with the prior written consent of the Post-Petition Agent); or (h) appointment of a chapter 11 trustee in any of the Chapter 11 Cases.

	(i) the consent of each Post-Petition Lender directly and adversely affected thereby shall be required with respect to: (A) increases in the commitment of such Post-Petition Lender, (B) reductions of principal, interest or fees owing to such Post-Petition Lender (or any extension or postponement of such payments), and (C) extensions or postponement of final maturity of the DIP Facility,

	(vii) customary protections for the Post-Petition Agent and the Issuing Lender will be provided.
	The DIP Facility contains customary provisions permitting the Borrower to replace non-consenting Post-Petition Lenders in connection with amendments and waivers requiring greater than a Majority Post-Petition Lender or Required Post-Petition Lender vote or the consent of all Post-Petition Lenders or of all Post-Petition Lenders directly affected thereby so long as the Majority Post-Petition Lenders shall have consented thereto.
	The DIP Facility also contains usual and customary provisions regarding “Defaulting Lenders”.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this [Final/Interim] Order, any DIP Documents (as defined in the Financing Orders), or any other order of the Court, all of the DIP Liens, the DIP Superpriority Claims, the Adequate Protection Liens, and the Adequate Protection Superpriority Claims (each as defined in the Financing Orders) shall be subject and subordinate only to the payment of the Carve-Out as and only to the extent set forth in this [Final/Interim] Order. As used in this [Final/Interim] Order, the “Carve Out” means the sum of (i) all fees required to be paid to the Clerk of the Court and to the Office of the United States Trustee under section 1930(a) of title 28 of the United States Code plus interest at the statutory rate (without regard to the notice set forth in (iii) below); (ii) all reasonable fees and expenses up to $[50,000] incurred by a trustee under section 726(b) of the Bankruptcy Code (without regard to the notice set forth in (iii) below); (iii) to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise, all unpaid fees and expenses, other than any restructuring, sale, success, or other transaction fee of any investment bankers or financial advisors of the Debtors or any committee⁽¹⁾ (the “Allowed Professional Fees”) incurred by persons or firms retained by the Debtors pursuant to section 327, 328, or 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Debtor Professionals”) and any official committee appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases (each, a “Committee”) pursuant to section 328 or 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Committee Professionals” and, together with the Debtor Professionals, the “Professional Persons”) at any time before or on the first business day following delivery by the Post-Petition Agent of a Carve Out Trigger Notice (as defined below), whether allowed by the Court prior to or after delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice; and (iv) Allowed Professional Fees of Professional Persons in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,750,000 incurred after the first business day following delivery by the Post-Petition Agent of the Carve Out Trigger Notice, to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural order, or otherwise (the amounts set forth in this clause (iv) being the “Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap”). For purposes of the foregoing, “Carve Out Trigger Notice” shall mean a written notice delivered by email (or other electronic means) by the Post-Petition Agent to the Debtors, their lead restructuring counsel, the U.S. Trustee, and counsel to any Committee, which notice may be delivered following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and acceleration of the DIP Obligations under the DIP Facility, stating that the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap has been invoked.

(1)

Any fee due and payable to a Professional Person that is employed as an investment banker or financial advisor arising from the consummation of any transaction shall be payable only to the extent allowed by the Court and as and to the extent set forth in such Professional Person’s engagement letter, and solely from the proceeds received by the Debtors resulting from the consummation of such transaction, free and clear of the liens of the Post-Petition Agent and the Post-Petition Lenders.

(b)Fee Estimates. Not later than 7:00 p.m. New York time on the third business day of each week starting with the first full calendar week following the [Closing Date], each Professional Person shall deliver to the Debtors a statement setting forth a good-faith estimate of the amount of fees and expenses (collectively, “Estimated Fees and Expenses”) incurred during the preceding week by such Professional Person (through Saturday of such week, the “Calculation Date”), along with a good-faith estimate of the cumulative total amount of unreimbursed fees and expenses incurred through the applicable Calculation Date and a statement of the amount of such fees and expenses that have been paid to date by the Debtors (each such statement, a “Weekly Statement”); provided, that within one business day of the occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date (as defined below), each Professional Person shall deliver to the Debtors one additional statement (the “Final Statement”) setting forth a good-faith estimate of the amount of fees and expenses incurred during the period commencing on the calendar day after the most recent Calculation Date for which a Weekly Statement has been delivered and concluding on the Termination Declaration Date (and the Debtors shall cause such Weekly Statement and Final Statement to be delivered on the same day received to the Post-Petition Agent). If any Professional Person fails to deliver a Weekly Statement or the Final Statement within three calendar days after such Weekly Statement or Final Statement is due, such Professional Person’s entitlement (if any) to any funds in the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve (as defined below) with respect to the aggregate unpaid amount of Allowed Professional Fees of such Professional Person for the applicable period(s) for which such Professional Person failed to deliver a Weekly Statement or Final Statement covering such period shall be limited to the aggregate unpaid amount of Allowed Professional Fees included in the Budget (as defined in the Post-Petition Credit Agreement, the “Budget”) for such period for such Professional Person; provided, that such Professional Person shall be entitled to be paid any unpaid amount of Allowed Professional Fees in excess of Allowed Professional Fees included in the Budget for such period for such Professional Person from a reserve to be funded by the Debtors from all cash on hand as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by any Debtor pursuant to paragraph [•](c) below. Solely as it relates to the Post-Petition Agent and the Post-Petition Lenders, any deemed draw and borrowing pursuant to paragraph [•](c)(i)(x) for amounts under paragraph [•](a)(iii) above shall be limited to the greater of (x) the sum of (I) the aggregate unpaid amount of Estimated Fees and Expenses included in such Weekly Statements timely received by the Debtors prior to the Termination Declaration Date plus, without duplication, (II) the lesser of (1) the aggregate unpaid amount of Estimated Fees and Expenses included in the Final Statements timely received by the Debtors pertaining to the period through and including the Termination Declaration Date and (2) the Budgeted Cushion Amount (as defined below), and (y) the aggregate unpaid amount of Allowed Professional Fees included in the Budget for the period prior to the Termination Declaration Date (such amount, the “DIP Professional Fee Carve Out Cap”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Post-Petition Agent shall be entitled to maintain at all times a reserve (the “Carve‑Out Reserve”) against availability under the DIP Facility in an amount (the “Carve-Out Reserve Amount”)

equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the aggregate unpaid amount of Estimated Fees and Expenses included in all Weekly Statements timely received by the Debtors, and (y) the aggregate amount of Allowed Professional Fees contemplated to be unpaid in the Budget at the applicable time, plus (ii) the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, plus (iii) the amounts contemplated under paragraph [•](a)(i) and [•](a)(ii) above, plus (iv) an amount equal to the amount of Allowed Professional Fees set forth in the Budget for the then current week occurring after the most recent Calculation Date and the two weeks succeeding such current week (such amount set forth in (iv), regardless of whether such reserve is maintained, the “Budgeted Cushion Amount”). Not later than 7:00 p.m. New York time on the fourth business day of each week starting with the first full calendar week following the [Closing Date], the Debtors shall deliver to the Post-Petition Agent a report setting forth the Carve‑Out Reserve Amount as of such time, and, in setting the Carve-Out Reserve, the Post-Petition Agent shall be entitled to rely upon such reports in accordance with section [•] of the Post-Petition Credit Agreement. Prior to the delivery of the first report setting forth the Carve-Out Reserve Amount, the Post-Petition Agent shall calculate the Carve-Out Reserve Amount by reference to the Budget for subsection (i) of the Carve-Out Reserve Amount.

(c)Carve Out Reserves.

(i)On the day on which a Carve Out Trigger Notice is given by the Post-Petition Agent to the Debtors and their lead restructuring counsel with a copy to counsel to any Committee (the “Termination Declaration Date”), the Carve Out Trigger Notice shall (x) be deemed a draw request and notice of borrowing by the Borrower for the DIP Loans under the DIP Facility, in an amount equal to the sum of (1) the amounts set forth in paragraphs [•](a)(i) and [•](a)(ii) above, and (2) the lesser of (a) the then unpaid amounts of the Allowed Professional Fees and (b) the DIP Professional Fee Carve Out Cap (any such amounts actually advanced shall constitute DIP Loans) and (y) also constitute a demand to the Debtors to utilize all cash on hand as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by any Debtor to fund a reserve in an amount equal to the sum of the amounts set forth in paragraphs [•](a)(i)-(iii) above. The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in a segregated account at the Post-Petition Agent in trust to pay such then unpaid Allowed Professional Fees (the “Pre‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve”) prior to any and all other claims.

(ii)On the Termination Declaration Date, the Carve Out Trigger Notice shall also (x) be deemed a request by the Debtors for DIP Loans under the DIP Facility, in an amount equal to the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap (any such amounts actually advanced shall constitute DIP Loans) and (y) constitute a demand to the Debtors to utilize all cash on hand as of such date and any available cash thereafter held by any Debtor, after funding the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve, to fund a reserve in an amount equal to the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap. The Debtors shall deposit and hold such amounts in a segregated account at the Post-Petition Agent in trust to pay such Allowed Professional Fees benefiting from the Post-Carve

Out Trigger Notice Cap (the “Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve” and, together with the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve, the “Carve Out Reserves”) prior to any and all other claims.

(iii)On the first business day after the Post-Petition Agent gives such notice to such Post-Petition Lenders, notwithstanding anything in the Post-Petition Credit Agreement to the contrary, including with respect to the existence of a Default or Event of Default (as such terms are defined in the Post-Petition Credit Agreement), the failure of the Debtors to satisfy any or all of the conditions precedent for DIP Loans under the DIP Facility, any termination of the DIP Commitments following an Event of Default, or the occurrence of the Maturity Date, each Post-Petition Lender with an outstanding DIP Commitment (on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding DIP Commitments) shall make available to the Post-Petition Agent such Post-Petition Lender’s pro rata share with respect to such borrowing in accordance with the DIP Facility; provided that in no event shall the Post-Petition Agent or the Post-Petition Lenders be required to extend DIP Loans pursuant to a deemed draw and borrowing pursuant to paragraphs [•](c)(i)(x) and [•](c)(ii)(x) in an aggregate amount exceeding the Carve-Out Reserve Amount.

(iv)All funds in the Pre-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used first to pay the obligations set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of the definition of Carve Out set forth above (the “Pre-Carve Out Amounts”), but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, until paid in full, and then, to the extent the Pre‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve has not been reduced to zero, to pay the Post-Petition Agent for the benefit of the Post-Petition Lenders, unless the DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash, and all DIP Commitments have been terminated, in which case any such excess shall be paid to the [Prepetition Secured Creditors] in accordance with their rights and priorities as of the Petition Date. All funds in the Post-Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve shall be used first to pay the obligations set forth in clause (iv) of the definition of Carve Out set forth above (the “Post-Carve Out Amounts”), and then, to the extent the Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Reserve has not been reduced to zero, to pay the Post-Petition Agent for the benefit of the Post-Petition Lenders, unless the DIP Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash, and all DIP Commitments have been terminated, in which case any such excess shall be paid to the [Prepetition Secured Creditors] in accordance with their rights and priorities as of the Petition Date.

(v)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the DIP Documents, or this [Final/Interim] Order, if either of the Carve Out Reserves is not funded in full in the amounts set forth in this paragraph [•], then, any excess funds in one of the Carve Out Reserves following the payment of the Pre-Carve Out Amounts and Post-Carve Out Amounts, respectively, shall be used to fund the other Carve Out Reserve, up to the applicable amount set forth in this paragraph [•], prior to making any payments to the Post-Petition Agent or the [Prepetition Secured Creditors], as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the DIP Documents or this [Final/Interim] Order, following delivery of a Carve Out Trigger Notice, the Post-Petition Agent and the Pre-Petition Agent shall not sweep or foreclose on cash (including cash received as a result of the sale or other disposition of

any assets) of the Debtors until the Carve Out Reserves have been fully funded, but shall have a security interest in any residual interest in the Carve Out Reserves, with any excess paid to the Post-Petition Agent for application in accordance with the DIP Documents. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this [Final/Interim] Order, (i) disbursements by the Debtors from the Carve Out Reserves shall not constitute DIP Loans or increase or reduce the DIP Obligations, (ii) the failure of the Carve Out Reserves to satisfy in full the Allowed Professional Fees shall not affect the priority of the Carve Out, and (iii) in no way shall the Initial Budget, Budget, Carve Out, Post‑Carve Out Trigger Notice Cap, Carve Out Reserves, or any of the foregoing be construed as a cap or limitation on the amount of the Allowed Professional Fees due and payable by the Debtors. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this [Final/Interim] Order, the DIP Facility, the Prepetition RBL Facility, or the Second Lien Notes Indenture, the Carve Out shall be senior to all liens and claims securing the DIP Facility, the Adequate Protection Liens, and the 507(b) Claim, and any and all other forms of adequate protection, liens, or claims securing the DIP Obligations or the [Prepetition Secured Obligations].

(d)Payment of Allowed Professional Fees Prior to the Termination Declaration Date. Any payment or reimbursement made prior to the occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date in respect of any Allowed Professional Fees shall not reduce the Carve Out.

(e)No Direct Obligation To Pay Allowed Professional Fees. None of the Post-Petition Agent, Post-Petition Lenders, or the [Prepetition Secured Creditors] shall be responsible for the payment or reimbursement of any fees or disbursements of any Professional Person incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases or any successor cases under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code. Nothing in this [Final/Interim] Order or otherwise shall be construed to obligate the Post-Petition Agent, the Post-Petition Lenders, or the [Prepetition Secured Creditors], in any way, to pay compensation to, or to reimburse expenses of, any Professional Person or to guarantee that the Debtors have sufficient funds to pay such compensation or reimbursement.

(f)Payment of Carve Out On or After the Termination Declaration Date. Any payment or reimbursement made on or after the occurrence of the Termination Declaration Date in respect of any Allowed Professional Fees shall permanently reduce the Carve Out on a dollar‑for-dollar basis. Any funding of the Carve Out shall be added to, and made a part of, the DIP Obligations secured by the DIP Collateral and shall be otherwise entitled to the protections granted under this [Final/Interim] Order, the DIP Documents, the Bankruptcy Code, and applicable law.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility Commitment Letter

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Denbury Resources Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower” or “you”) has advised JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), Bank of America, N.A. (“BofA”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells”), Capital One, National Association (“Capital One”), Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“CSAG”), Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”), ABN AMRO Capital USA LLC (“ABN”), Comerica Bank (“Comerica”), Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, New York Branch (“CIBC”), ING Capital LLC (“ING”), Truist Bank (“Truist”), KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”), Fifth Third Bank, National Association (“Fifth Third”) and Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman”, and together with JPMorgan, BofA, Wells,

Capital One, CSAG, RBC, ABN, Comerica, CIBC, ING, Truist, KeyBank and Fifth Third, collectively, the “Initial Lenders”, “we”, “our” or “us”) that the Borrower and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively with the Borrower, the “Credit Parties”) will on or about the date hereof file voluntary petitions commencing cases under title 11 of the United States Code (the “Chapter 11 Cases”, and such code, the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) in order to implement the Transactions (as defined below). In connection therewith, you have requested that the Initial Lenders provide financing to (a) refinance (the “Refinancing”) any outstanding Pre-Petition Secured Indebtedness (as defined in the DIP Term Sheet (as defined below)) that was not converted into DIP Obligations (as defined in the Exit Facility Term Sheet (as defined below)) and any outstanding indebtedness under that certain Senior Secured Super Priority Debtor-In-Possession Credit Agreement, to be dated on or about the date hereof (as amended from time to time, the “DIP Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the other Credit Parties party thereto and each of the Initial Lenders party thereto, via a cashless conversion on the Conversion Date (as defined in the Exit Facility Term Sheet) in accordance with the terms of the Exit Facility Term Sheet, (b) pay fees, commissions and expenses in connection with the Transactions and (c) finance ongoing working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes of the Credit Parties, all as more fully described in the Exit Facility Term Sheet (as defined below).

This Commitment Letter (as defined below) describes the general terms and conditions for a senior secured exit facility constituting a reserve-based revolving credit facility of up to an aggregate maximum credit amount of $615,000,000 (the “Revolving Facility”) on substantially the terms described in, and subject to the conditions precedent set forth in, the Exit Facility Term Sheet attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exit Facility Term Sheet”), with availability thereunder being subject to an initial borrowing base (the “Initial Borrowing Base”), which Initial Borrowing Base will not, in any event, be greater than the borrowing base in effect under the DIP Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Conversion Date. The Initial Borrowing Base will be determined in accordance with the terms of the Exit Facility Term Sheet and will be determined by the Administrative Agent (and approved by the Initial Lenders constituting the Required Lenders (as defined in the Exit Facility Term Sheet), including JPMorgan) in good faith in their sole discretion, based upon the Initial Reserve Report and such other reports, data and supplemental information (including status of title information with respect to proved oil and gas properties, the Credit Parties’ other assets, liabilities, fixed charges, cash flow, business, properties, prospects, hedged and unhedged exposure of the Credit Parties to price, price and production scenarios, interest rate and operating cost changes) as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its sole discretion, acting in good faith and consistent with its normal oil and gas lending criteria as it exists at such time for such purpose with respect to similar oil and gas reserve-based credits for similarly situated borrowers.

As used herein, the term “Transactions” means, collectively, (a) the restructuring contemplated under the Chapter 11 Cases, (b) the Refinancing, (c) the initial borrowings and other extensions of credit under the Revolving Facility on the Conversion Date and (d) the payment of fees, commissions and expenses in connection with each of the foregoing. This letter, including the Exit Facility Term Sheet and any other annexes, exhibits or other attachments hereto, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Commitment Letter”.
