• Conversion of LTIP Units (a) An LTIP Holder shall have the right (the “Conversion Right”), at its option, at any time to convert all or a portion of its Vested LTIP Units into Limited Partnership Units; provided, however, that an LTIP Holder may not exercise the Conversion Right for fewer than one thousand (1,000) Vested LTIP Units or, if such LTIP Holder holds fewer than one thousand (1,000) Vested LTIP Units, all of the LTIP Holder’s Vested LTIP Units. LTIP Holders shall not have the right to convert Unvested LTIP Units into Limited Partnership Units until they become Vested LTIP Units; provided, however, that when a LTIP Holder is notified of the expected occurrence of an event that will cause its Unvested LTIP Units to become Vested LTIP Units, such Person may give the Partnership a Conversion Notice conditioned upon and effective as of the time of vesting, and such Conversion Notice, unless subsequently revoked by the LTIP Holder, shall be accepted by the Partnership subject to such condition. The General Partner shall have the right at any time to cause a conversion of Vested LTIP Units into Limited Partnership Units. In all cases, the conversion of any LTIP Units into Limited Partnership Units shall be subject to the conditions and procedures set forth in this Section 4.5. (b) A holder of Vested LTIP Units may convert such interests into an equal number of fully paid and non-assessable Limited Partnership Units, giving effect to all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 4.4(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may a holder of Vested LTIP Units convert an amount of Vested LTIP Units that exceeds (x) the Economic Capital Account Balance of such holder, to the extent attributable to its ownership of LTIP Units, divided by (y) the Limited Partnership Unit Economic Balance, in each case as determined as of the effective date of conversion (the “Capital Account Limitation”). (c) In order to exercise its Conversion Right, a LTIP Holder shall deliver a notice (a “Conversion Notice”) to the Partnership (with a copy to the General Partner) not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to a date (the “Conversion Date”) specified in such Conversion Notice; provided, however, that if the General Partner has not given to the LTIP Holders notice of a proposed or upcoming Transaction (as defined below) at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such Transaction, then the LTIP Holders shall have the right to deliver a Conversion Notice until the earlier of (x) the tenth (10th) day after such notice from the General Partner of a Transaction or (y) the third business day immediately preceding the effective date of such Transaction. A Conversion Notice shall be provided in the manner provided in Section 12.1. Each LTIP Holder covenants and agrees with the Partnership that all Vested LTIP Units to be converted pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall be free and clear of all liens. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a LTIP Holder may deliver a Redemption Notice pursuant to Section 8.5 relating to those Limited Partnership Units that will be issued to such holder upon conversion of such LTIP Units into Limited Partnership Units in advance of the Conversion Date; provided, however, that the redemption of such Limited Partnership Units by the Partnership shall in no event take place until after the Conversion Date. For clarity, it is noted that the objective of this paragraph is to put an LTIP Holder in a position where, if he or she so wishes, the Limited Partnership Units into which its Vested LTIP Units will be converted can be redeemed by the Partnership simultaneously with such conversion, with the further consequence that, if the General Partner elects to assume the Partnership’s redemption obligation with respect to such Limited Partnership Units under Section 8.5 by delivering to such holder REIT Shares rather than cash, then such holder can have REIT Shares issued to it simultaneously with the conversion of its Vested LTIP Units into Limited Partnership Units. The General Partner shall cooperate with an LTIP Holder to coordinate the timing of the different events described in the foregoing sentence. (d) The Partnership, at any time at the election of the General Partner, may cause any number of Vested LTIP Units held by an LTIP Holder to be converted (a “Forced Conversion”) into an equal number of Limited Partnership Units, giving effect to all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 4.4(b); provided, that the Partnership may not cause a Forced Conversion of any LTIP Units that would not at the time be eligible for conversion at the option of such LTIP Holder pursuant to paragraph (b) above. In order to exercise its right of Forced Conversion, the Partnership shall deliver a notice (a “Forced Conversion Notice”) to the applicable holder not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Conversion Date specified in such Forced Conversion Notice. A Forced Conversion Notice shall be provided in the manner provided in Section 12.1. (e) A conversion of Vested LTIP Units for which a holder has given a Conversion Notice or the Partnership has given a Forced Conversion Notice shall occur automatically after the close of business on the applicable Conversion Date without any action on the part of such LTIP Holder, as of which time such LTIP Holder shall be credited on the books and records of the Partnership with the issuance as of the opening of business on the next day of an equal number of Limited Partnership Units issuable upon such conversion. After the conversion of LTIP Units as aforesaid, the Partnership shall deliver to such LTIP Holder, upon its written request, a certificate of the General Partner certifying its Limited Partnership Units and remaining LTIP Units, if any, immediately after such conversion. (f) For purposes of making future allocations under Section 5.1(e) and applying the Capital Account Limitation, the portion of the Economic Capital Account balance of the applicable holder that is treated as attributable to its LTIP Units shall be reduced, as of the date of conversion, by the product of the number of LTIP Units converted and the Limited Partnership Unit Economic Balance. (g) If the Partnership or the General Partner shall be a party to any transaction (including without limitation a merger, consolidation, interest exchange, self tender offer for all or substantially all Limited Partnership Units or other business combination or reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, but excluding any transaction which constitutes an Adjustment Event), in each case as a result of which Limited Partnership Units shall be exchanged for or converted into the right, or the holders such interests shall otherwise be entitled, to receive cash, securities or other property or any combination thereof (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a “Transaction”), then the General Partner shall, immediately prior to the Transaction, exercise its right to cause a Forced Conversion with respect to the LTIP Units then eligible for conversion, taking into account any allocations that occur in connection with the Transaction or that would occur in connection with the Transaction if the assets of the Partnership were sold at the Transaction price or, if applicable, at a value determined by the General Partner in good faith using the value attributed to the Partnership Units in the context of the Transaction (in which case the Conversion Date shall be the effective date of the Transaction). In anticipation of such Forced Conversion and the consummation of the Transaction, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each LTIP Holder to be afforded the right to receive in connection with such Transaction in consideration for the Limited Partnership Units into which its LTIP Units will be converted into the same kind and amount of cash, securities, and other property (or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such transaction by a holder of the same number of Limited Partnership Units, assuming such holder of Limited Partnership Units is not a Person with which the Partnership consolidated or into with the Partnership merged or which merged into the Partnership or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a “Constituent Person”), or an affiliate of a Constituent Person. In the event that holders of Limited Partnership Units have the opportunity to elect the form or type of consideration to be received upon consummation of the Transaction, prior to such Transaction the General Partner shall give prompt written notice to each LTIP Holder of such election and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to afford such holders the right to elect, by written notice to the General Partner, the form or type of consideration to be received upon conversion of the LTIP Units held by such holder into Limited Partnership Units in connection with such Transaction. If an LTIP Holder fails to make such an election, such LTIP Holder (and any of its transferees) shall receive upon conversion of the LTIP Units held by it (or by any of its transferees) the same kind and amount of consideration that a holder of Limited Partnership Units would receive if such holder of Limited Partnership Units failed to make such an election. Subject to the rights of the Partnership and the General Partner under any Vesting Agreement, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the terms of the Transaction to be consistent with the provisions of this Section 4.5 and to enter into an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of any LTIP Holders whose LTIP Units will not be converted into Limited Partnership Units in connection with the Transaction that will (i) contain provisions enabling the LTIP Holders with outstanding LTIP Units after such Transaction to convert their LTIP Units into securities as comparable as reasonably possible under the circumstances to Limited Partnership Units and (ii) preserve as far as reasonably possible under the circumstances the distribution, special allocation, conversion, and other rights set forth in the Agreement for the benefit of LTIP Holders.

The shares of Parent Common Stock exchangeable for any shares of Restricted Stock will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as the Restricted Stock, including with regards to vesting. (iv) No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Merger, but in lieu thereof, a cash payment shall be made pursuant to Section 2.6(g).

• Conversion of Preferred Stock If the Class is a class and series of the Company’s convertible preferred stock, in the event that all outstanding shares of the Class are converted, automatically or by action of the holders thereof, into common stock pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, including, without limitation, in connection with the Company’s initial, underwritten public offering and sale of its common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act (the “IPO”), then from and after the date on which all outstanding shares of the Class have been so converted, this Warrant shall be exercisable for such number of shares of common stock into which the Shares would have been converted had the Shares been outstanding on the date of such conversion, and the Warrant Price shall equal the Warrant Price in effect as of immediately prior to such conversion divided by the number of shares of common stock into which one Share would have been converted, all subject to further adjustment thereafter from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

• Conversion of Company Shares As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any Company Share or Acquiror Share, each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (a) shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 3.2 and (b) Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive in cash from Acquiror, without interest, an amount equal to $16.00 (the "Merger Consideration").

• Conversion of Company Preferred Stock The Company shall have completed the conversion of all issued and outstanding Company Preferred Stock to Company Common Stock.

• Conversion of Preferred Shares If, at any time, any of the Preferred Shares are converted into REIT Shares, in whole or in part, then a number of Partnership Preferred Units equal to the number of Preferred Shares so converted shall automatically be converted into a number of Partnership Common Units equal to (i) the number of REIT Shares issued upon such conversion divided by (ii) the Adjustment Factor then in effect, and the Percentage Interests of the General Partner and the Limited Partners shall be adjusted to reflect such conversion.

• Conversion of Stock At the Effective Time: (i) the shares representing 100% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of MailKey ("MAILKEY ORDINARY SHARES") as of the Closing (as that is defined in Section 2.1 hereof) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of such shares, be converted into and represent the right to receive, and shall be exchangeable for the merger consideration set forth in Section 1.3 hereafter (the "MERGER CONSIDERATIOn"); (ii) the shares representing 100% of the issued and outstanding Preferred A Shares of MailKey ("MAILKEY PREFERRED A SHARES") as of the Closing shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of such shares, be converted into and represent the right to receive, and shall be exchangeable for the Merger Consideration as set forth in Section 1.3 hereafter; (iii) the shares representing 100% of the issued and outstanding Preferred B Shares of MailKey ("MAILKEY PREFERRED B SHARES", and together with MailKey Ordinary Shares and MailKey Preferred A Shares, the "MAILKEY CAPITAL STOCK") as of the Closing shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of such shares, be converted into and represent the right to receive, and shall be exchangeable for the Merger Consideration as set forth in Section 1.3 hereafter; (iv) each issued and outstanding share of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of Sub shall, by virtue of the merger, be converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable ordinary share of the Surviving Corporation.

• Conversion of Common Stock In case all or any portion of the authorized and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are redeemed or converted or reclassified into other securities or property pursuant to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise, or the Common Stock otherwise ceases to exist, then, in such case, the Holder of this Warrant, upon exercise hereof at any time after the date on which the Common Stock is so redeemed or converted, reclassified or ceases to exist (the "TERMINATION DATE"), shall receive, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the Termination Date, the securities or property that would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and the Common Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted immediately prior to the Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant. Additionally, the Purchase Price shall be immediately adjusted such that the aggregate Purchase Price of the maximum number of securities or other property for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the Termination Date is equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

• Conversion of Shares (a) At the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock (individually a “Share” and collectively the “Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares held in the Company’s treasury or by any of the Company’s subsidiaries) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of AREP Oil & Gas, IPO Co., the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive that fraction of a fully-paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of IPO Co. (“IPO Co. Common Stock”) equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) (the “Merger Consideration”). (b) The “Exchange Ratio” shall be determined by multiplying 0.00000008936 [i.e., 1 / 11,190,650 (the number of outstanding Shares)] by the Share Amount (as hereafter defined). The “Share Amount” shall mean that number of shares of IPO Co. Common Stock which results in the holders of the Shares receiving, in the aggregate, a 7.990% (the “Percentage”) economic interest in the entire equity of the Enterprise (as hereafter defined) immediately prior to consummation of the IPO Transaction; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge and agree that: (i) the Percentage is based upon the assumption that the Enterprise will be subject to $500 million of net indebtedness (i.e., total indebtedness minus cash) immediately prior to or simultaneously with consummation of the IPO Transaction (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries); (ii) to the extent that the Enterprise is subject to less than $500 million of net indebtedness at such time (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries), the Percentage will be reduced by subtracting the Adjustment Amount (as hereafter defined) from the Percentage; and (iii) to the extent that the Enterprise is subject to in excess of $500 million of net indebtedness at such time (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries), the Percentage will be increased by adding the Adjustment Amount to the Percentage. The “Adjustment Amount” shall mean the product of (x) 0.6322% and (y) that fraction obtained by dividing the positive difference between $500 million and the actual net indebtedness of the Enterprise immediately prior to or simultaneously with consummation of the IPO Transaction (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries) by $100 million. Set forth on Schedule 1.7 hereto is an example of how the Percentage shall be calculated. At Closing, the remaining economic interest in the Enterprise will be held, directly or indirectly, by AREH. The term “Enterprise” shall mean a combination or consolidation of entities which includes 100% of the equity interests in each of AREP Oil & Gas, National Onshore, National Offshore and the Company.

• Conversion of Merger Sub Common Stock At the Effective Time, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.
