Exhibit
10.2
STOCK
PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) made as
of this 22nd day of September, 2009 between
Xxxxx Acquisition Company I, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer” or “HACI”) and the signatory on
the execution page hereof (“Seller”).
WHEREAS, Buyer was organized for the purpose of acquiring, through a merger, capital stock
exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination, an operating business (“Business
Combination”); and
WHEREAS, Buyer consummated an initial public offering in October, 2007 (“IPO”) in connection
with which it raised net proceeds of approximately $529.1 million, a significant portion of which
was placed in a trust account pending the consummation of a Business Combination, or the
dissolution and liquidation of Buyer in the event it is unable to consummate a Business Combination
on or prior to September 28, 2009; and
WHEREAS, Buyer has entered into that certain Purchase and IPO Reorganization Agreement dated
as of August 2, 2009, by and among HACI, Resolute Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
“REC”), Resolute Subsidiary Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Resolute Aneth, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, Resolute Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Resolute
Holdings Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings Sub”), and HH-HACI, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership (collectively, the “Acquisition”), pursuant to which, through a series
of transactions, HACI stockholders will acquire a majority of the outstanding common stock of the
Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “REC Common Stock”), and the Company will acquire HACI
and the business and operations of Holdings Sub; and
WHEREAS, the approval of the Acquisition is contingent upon, among other things, the
affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding common shares of HACI at the special
meeting called to approve the Acquisition; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to certain provisions in Buyer’s certificate of incorporation, a holder of
shares of Buyer’s common stock issued in the IPO may, if it votes against the Acquisition, demand
that Buyer convert such common shares into cash (“Conversion Rights”); and
WHEREAS the Acquisition cannot be consummated if holders of 30% or more of HACI common stock
issued in the IPO exercise their Conversion Rights; and
WHEREAS, Seller has agreed to sell to Buyer and Buyer has agreed to purchase from Seller the
common shares set forth on the execution page of this Agreement (“Shares”) for the purchase price
per share set forth therein (“Purchase Price Per Share”) and for the aggregate purchase price set
forth therein (“Aggregate Purchase Price”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and other good
and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby
agree as follows:
1. Purchase. Subject to Section 7, Seller hereby sells to Buyer and Buyer
hereby purchases from Seller at the Closing (as defined in Section 4(c)) the Shares at the
Purchase Price Per Share, for the Aggregate Purchase Price.
1
2. Agreement not to Convert; Appointment of Proxy and Attorney-in-Fact. In further
consideration of the Aggregate Purchase Price, Seller hereby agrees it has not and will not
exercise its Conversion Rights or, if it has already exercised its Conversion Rights, it hereby
withdraws and revokes such exercise and will execute all necessary documents and take all actions
required in furtherance of such revocation. Seller acknowledges that the record date to vote on
the proposals set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus (the “Proxy Statement”) filed by Buyer
with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has passed. Accordingly, solely with
respect to the vote for the Acquisition and the other proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement,
Seller hereby irrevocably appoints Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx and Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx and each of them each with
full power of substitution, as his proxy and attorney-in-fact, to the full extent of Seller’s
rights with respect to the Shares (and any and all other shares or securities or rights issued or
issuable in respect thereof) to vote in such manner as each such person or his substitute shall in
his sole discretion deem proper, and to otherwise act (including without limitation acting by
written consent) with respect to all the Shares at any meeting of stockholders (whether annual or
special and whether or not an adjourned meeting) of Buyer held on or prior to September 22, 2009.
This proxy is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Execution by Seller of this Agreement
shall revoke, without further action, all prior proxies granted by Seller at any time with respect
to the Shares (and such other shares or other securities) and no subsequent proxies will be given
by Seller (and if given will be deemed not to be effective).
3. No Right to Additional Shares. HACI’s stockholders of record are entitled to
receive one share of REC Common Stock for each share of HACI common stock owned immediately prior
to the consummation of the Acquisition (the “Exchange”). Although Seller will be a stockholder of
record immediately prior to the Acquisition, Seller hereby acknowledges that Seller irrevocably
waives any right, title or interest it may have in receiving any such REC Common Stock distributed
pursuant to the Exchange. Seller hereby acknowledges that by virtue of the sale hereunder, Seller
will not become a stockholder of REC, and the Shares shall automatically be cancelled and shall
cease to exist and shall represent only the right to receive the Aggregate Purchase Price there for
in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Additionally, each of Buyer and Seller hereby agree
and acknowledge that this provision is material to this Agreement and a significant consideration
in Buyer’s willingness to enter into this Agreement.
4. Closing Matters.
(a) Within one business day of the date of this Agreement, (i) Seller shall provide Buyer with
a true and correct copy of the voting instruction form with respect to the Shares held by Seller
indicating the financial institution through which such shares are held and the control number
provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions (or other similar service provider) regarding the voting
of the Shares or written confirmation of such information as would appear on the voting instruction
form; and (ii) Buyer shall send the notice attached as Annex 1 hereto to HACI’s transfer agent.
(b) Prior to the Closing, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer appropriate
instructions for book entry transfers of ownership of the Shares from Seller to Buyer.
(c) The closing of the purchase and sale of the Shares (“Closing”) will occur on the date on
which Buyer’s trust account is liquidated after the Acquisition is consummated (the “Closing
Date”). At the Closing, Buyer shall pay Seller the Aggregate Purchase Price by wire transfer from
HACI’s trust account of immediately available funds to an account specified by Seller and Seller
shall deliver the Shares to Buyer electronically using the Depository Trust Company’s DWAC
(Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian) System to an account specified by Buyer. It shall be a condition
to the obligation of Buyer on the one hand and Seller on the other hand, to consummate the transfer

11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall for all purposes be deemed to be made under
and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. Each of the parties
hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way
to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the
United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably submits to such
jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. Each of the parties hereby waives any
objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.
12. Remedies. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, in the event
of any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement by the other party, money
damages may be inadequate with respect to any such breach and the non-breaching party may have no
adequate remedy at law. It is accordingly agreed that each of the parties hereto shall be
entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, to
seek injunctive relief and/or to compel specific performance to prevent breaches by the other party
hereto of any covenant or agreement of such other party contained in this Agreement.
13. Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted
assigns. This Agreement shall not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of
the other party hereto.

convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.
15. Entire Agreement; Changes in Writing. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement among the parties hereto and supersedes and cancels any prior agreements, representations
and warranties, whether oral or written, among the parties hereto relating to the transaction
contemplated hereby. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed or amended
orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the other party hereto.
16. Trust Waiver. HACI’s initial public offering was consummated on October 3, 2007
as a result of which it received net proceeds of $529.1 million which are held in a trust fund
established by HACI for the benefit of its public stockholders (the “Trust Fund”). The Trust Fund
is invested in U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity with a maturity of 180 days or less in a trust
account at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and held in trust by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
Company (the “Trustee”) pursuant to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of
September 27, 2007, between HACI and Trustee. Seller understands that, except for a portion of the
interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Fund, HACI may disburse monies from the Trust Fund
only: (i) to HACI in limited amounts from time to time (and in no event more than $6,555,000 in
total) in order to permit HACI to pay its operating expenses; (ii) if HACI completes an initial
business combination, to certain dissenting public stockholders, to the underwriters in the amount
of underwriting discounts and commissions they earned in HACI’s initial public offering but whose
payment they have deferred, and then to HACI; and (iii) if HACI fails to complete an initial
business combination within the allotted time period and liquidates, subject to the terms of the
agreement governing the Trust Fund, to HACI’s public stockholders (as such term is defined in the
agreement governing the Trust Fund). Seller agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision
contained in this Agreement, it does not now have, and shall not at any time prior to the
consummation of the Acquisition have any claim to, or make any claim against, the Trust Fund
arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Acquisition, regardless of whether such
claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all
such claims are collectively referred to in this Section 16 as the “Claims”). Seller
hereby irrevocably waives any Claim it may have, now or in the future arising under this Agreement or otherwise, and will not seek
recourse
5
against, the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever in respect thereof other than any amount
constituting the Aggregate Purchase Price that is payable in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. This waiver is intended and shall be deemed and construed to be irrevocable and
absolute on the part of Seller, and shall be binding on its subsidiaries, affiliated entities,
directors, officers, employees, stockholders, representatives, advisors, all other associates and
affiliates, and its and their respective heirs, successors and assigns, as the case may be. Seller
acknowledges that it benefits from this Agreement and that HACI is entering into this Agreement
upon reliance on this Section 16. Other than with respect to an action for the recovery of
the Aggregate Purchase Price to be paid to Seller in connection with this Agreement, in the event
Seller commences any other action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or
arising out of any matter relating to HACI, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief
against the Trust Fund or the public stockholders of HACI, whether in the form of money damages or
injunctive relief, HACI shall be entitled to recover from Seller the associated legal fees and
costs in connection with any such action.
