Related to Calculation of Transaction Consideration Adjustments

• Merger Consideration Adjustment (a) Following the Closing, the Merger Consideration shall be finally determined in accordance with the adjustments and procedures set forth in this Agreement. (b) Within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Final Closing Cash, the Final Closing Indebtedness, the Final Transaction Expenses, the Final Working Capital, and the resulting Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.10, the following payments shall be made, as applicable: (i) If the Merger Consideration is greater than the Estimated Merger Consideration (such excess, the “Adjustment Excess Amount”), then: (A) Purchaser shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent the Adjustment Excess Amount, pursuant to the Paying Agent Agreement, for further payment to the Equityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share; and (B) Purchaser and the Equityholder Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to deposit with the Paying Agent the Escrow Amount, pursuant to the Paying Agent Agreement, for further payment to the Equityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share. (ii) If the Merger Consideration is equal to the Estimated Merger Consideration, then Purchaser and the Equityholder Representative shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to deposit with the Paying Agent the Escrow Amount, pursuant to the Paying Agent Agreement, for further payment to the Equityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share. (iii) If the Merger Consideration is less than the Estimated Merger Consideration (such difference, expressed as a positive number the “Adjustment Shortfall Amount”), then Purchaser and the Equityholder Representative shall: (A) in the event the Adjustment Shortfall Amount is less than the Escrow Amount, jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to (1) release to Purchaser from the Escrow Account an amount equal to the Adjustment Shortfall Amount; and (2) deposit with the Paying Agent the remaining amounts of the Escrow Account (after payment of such Adjustment Shortfall Amount from the Escrow Account to Purchaser), pursuant to the Paying Agent Agreement, for further payment to the Equityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share; or (B) in the event the Adjustment Shortfall Amount is equal to or greater than the Escrow Amount, (1) jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release to Purchaser from the Escrow Account an amount equal to the Escrow Amount and (2) the Equityholders, severally and not jointly, shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Purchaser an amount equal to the remaining portion of such Adjustment Shortfall Amount, if any. (c) Purchaser shall cause the Paying Agent to, as soon as practicable after the deposit with the Paying Agent of any amount pursuant to Section 2.8(b) (collectively, “Adjustment Consideration”), distribute to each Equityholder the portion of such Adjustment Consideration actually payable to such Equityholder pursuant to Section 2.2.

• Adjustment of Consideration (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the issued and outstanding VAALCO Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares by reason of any split or consolidation of the issued and outstanding VAALCO Shares, then the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to TransGlobe Shareholders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement and the Arrangement prior to such action and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share. (b) If on or after the date hereof, TransGlobe declares, sets aside or pays any dividend or other distribution to the TransGlobe Shareholders of record as of a time prior to the Effective Time, then the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to TransGlobe Shareholders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement and the Arrangement prior to such action and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share. For greater certainty, if TransGlobe takes any of the actions referred to above, the aggregate Consideration to be paid by AcquireCo shall be decreased by an equivalent amount. (c) If on or after the date hereof, VAALCO declares, sets aside or pays any dividend or other distribution to the VAALCO Stockholders of record as of a time prior to the Effective Time (except for regular quarterly dividends to VAALCO Stockholders made in accordance with Section 5.2(b)(ii)), then the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to TransGlobe Shareholders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement and the Arrangement prior to such action and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share. For greater certainty, if VAALCO takes any of the actions referred to above, the aggregate Consideration to be paid by AcquireCo shall be increased by an equivalent amount.

• Adjustments to Merger Consideration The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any reclassification, stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock occurring (or for which a record date is established) after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

• Certificate of Adjusted Purchase Price or Number of Shares Whenever an adjustment is made as provided in Section 11 and Section 13 hereof, the Company shall (a) promptly prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment, (b) promptly file with the Rights Agent, and with each transfer agent for the Preferred Stock and the Common Stock, a copy of such certificate, and (c) mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Rights Certificate (or, if prior to the Distribution Date, to each holder of a certificate representing shares of Common Stock) in accordance with Section 26 hereof. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying on any such certificate and on any adjustment therein contained.

• Allocation of Consideration (i) Subject to Subsection 2.2(d)(ii), the aggregate consideration payable to the Participating Investors and the selling Key Holder shall be allocated based on the number of shares of Capital Stock sold to the Prospective Transferee by each Participating Investor and the selling Key Holder as provided in Subsection 2.2(b), provided that if a Participating Investor wishes to sell Preferred Stock, the price set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice shall be appropriately adjusted based on the conversion ratio of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock. (ii) In the event that the Proposed Key Holder Transfer constitutes a Change of Control, the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall provide that the aggregate consideration from such transfer shall be allocated to the Participating Investors and the selling Key Holder in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of Article IV(B) of the Restated Certificate and, if applicable, the next sentence as if (A) such transfer were a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the Restated Certificate), and (B) the Capital Stock sold in accordance with the Purchase and Sale Agreement were the only Capital Stock outstanding. In the event that a portion of the aggregate consideration payable to the Participating Investor(s) and selling Key Holder is placed into escrow and/or is payable only upon satisfaction of contingencies, the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall provide that (x) the portion of such consideration that is not placed in escrow and is not subject to contingencies (the “Initial Consideration”) shall be allocated in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of Article IV(B) of the Restated Certificate as if the Initial Consideration were the only consideration payable in connection with such transfer, and (y) any additional consideration which becomes payable to the Participating Investor(s) and selling Key Holder upon release from escrow or satisfaction of such contingencies shall be allocated in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of Article IV(B) of the Restated Certificate after taking into account the previous payment of the Initial Consideration as part of the same transfer.

• Anti-Dilution Adjustments to Exercise Price If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall sell or grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or securities entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of Common Stock (upon conversion, exercise or otherwise) (including but not limited to under the Note), at an effective price per share less than the then Exercise Price (such lower price, the “Base Share Price” and such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, elimination of an applicable floor price for any reason in the future (including but not limited to the passage of time or satisfaction of certain condition(s)), reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled or potentially entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share which is less than the Exercise Price at any time while such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are in existence, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance (regardless of whether the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are (i) subsequently redeemed or retired by the Company after the date of the Dilutive Issuance or (ii) actually converted or exercised at such Base Share Price), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced at the option of the Holder and only reduced to equal the Base Share Price, and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price prior to such adjustment (for the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate Exercise Price prior to such adjustment is calculated as follows: the total number of Warrant Shares multiplied by the initial Exercise Price in effect as of the Issuance Date). Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued, regardless of whether the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are (i) subsequently redeemed or retired by the Company after the date of the Dilutive Issuance or (ii) actually converted or exercised at such Base Share Price by the holder thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, the Holder may utilize the Base Share Price even if the Company did not actually issue shares of its common stock at the Base Share Price under the respective Common stock Equivalents). The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 2(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 2(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, after the date of such Dilutive Issuance the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares based upon the Base Share Price regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the Notice of Exercise.

• Determination of Consideration For purposes of this Subsection 4.4, the consideration received by the Corporation for the issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:

• Exceptions to Adjustment of Exercise Price No adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made (i) upon the exercise of any warrants, options or convertible securities granted, issued and outstanding on the date of issuance of this Warrant; (ii) upon the grant or exercise of any stock or options which may hereafter be granted or exercised under any employee benefit plan, stock option plan or restricted stock plan of the Company now existing or to be implemented in the future, so long as the issuance of such stock or options is approved by a majority of the independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of independent directors established for such purpose; or (iii) upon the exercise of the Warrants.

• Antidilution Adjustments If the Company shall at any time hereafter subdivide or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or declare a dividend payable in Common Stock, the exercise price in effect immediately prior to the subdivision, combination, or record date for such dividend payable in Common Stock shall forthwith be proportionately increased, in the case of combination, or proportionately decreased, in the case of subdivision or declaration of a dividend payable in Common Stock, and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately preceding such event, shall be changed to the number determined by dividing the then current exercise price by the exercise price as adjusted after such subdivision, combination, or dividend payable in Common Stock and multiplying the result of such division against the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately preceding such event, so as to achieve an exercise price and number of Warrant Shares purchasable after such event proportional to such exercise price and number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately preceding such event. All calculations hereunder shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. No fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fraction of a share which would otherwise be issuable in an amount equal to the same fraction of the market price per share of Common Stock on the day of exercise as determined in good faith by the Company. In case of any capital reorganization or any reclassification of the shares of Common Stock of the Company, or in the case of any consolidation with or merger of the Company into or with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, which is effected in such a manner that the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a part of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, as the case may be, lawful provision shall be made so that the holder of the Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon the exercise hereof, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property which the holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale, the holder had held the number of Warrant Shares which were then purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holder of the Warrant, to the end that the provisions set forth herein (including provisions with respect to adjustments of the exercise price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrant.

• Certain Adjustments The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.
