Such Purchaser understands that the Purchased Units it is purchasing are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities Laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from Linn Energy in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such Laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, Purchaser represents that it is knowledgeable with respect to Rule 144 of the Commission promulgated under the Securities Act.

Section 4.07. Certain Fees. No fees or commissions will be payable by such Purchaser to brokers, finders or investment bankers with respect to the sale of any of the Purchased Units or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Linn Energy will not be liable for any such fees or commissions. Such Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, that it will indemnify and hold harmless Linn Energy from and against any and all claims, demands or liabilities for broker’s, finder’s, placement or other similar fees or commissions incurred by such Purchaser or alleged to have been incurred by such Purchaser in connection with the purchase of Purchased Units or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 4.08. Legend. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Purchased Units initially will bear the following legend: “These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the securities under such Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder and, in the case of a transaction exempt from registration, unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 under such Act or the issuer has received documentation reasonably satisfactory to it that such transaction does not require registration under such Act.”

Section 4.09. No Side Agreements. Except for the confidentiality agreements entered into by and between such Purchaser and Linn Energy, there are no other agreements by, among or between Linn Energy or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and such Purchaser or its Affiliates, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby nor promises or inducements for future transactions between or among any of such parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Xxxxxx Brothers Inc., the representation made in this Section 4.09 is made only by Xxxxxx Brothers MLP Partners, L.P., as currently configured, and does not apply to Xxxxxx Brothers Inc. or any of its Affiliates, other than Xxxxxx Brothers MLP Partners, L.P., as currently configured.

Section 4.10. Short Selling. Such Purchaser represents that it has not entered into any Short Sales of the Units owned by it between the time it first began discussions with Linn Energy or the Placement Agents about the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the date hereof (it being understood that the entering into a total return swap should not be considered a Short Sale of Units).

ARTICLE V
COVENANTS

Section 5.01. Subsequent Public Offerings. Without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the Purchased Units, taken as a whole, from the date of this Agreement until the Lock-Up Date, Linn Energy shall not, and shall cause its directors, officers and Affiliates not to, grant, issue or sell any Units or other equity or voting securities of Linn Energy, any securities convertible into or exchangeable therefor or take any other action that may result in the issuance of any of the foregoing, other than (i) the issuance of Awards (as defined in Linn Energy’s Long-Term Incentive Plan) or the issuance of Units upon the exercise of options to purchase Units granted pursuant to Linn Energy’s existing (a) Long-Term Incentive Plan or (b) Memorandum of Understanding Regarding Compensation Arrangements for Members of its Board of Directors,

(ii) the issuance or sale of up to an aggregate of 15 million Units issued or sold in a registered public offering to finance future acquisitions that are accretive to cash flow per Unit (or the repayment of indebtedness incurred in connection with such accretive acquisitions) at a price no less than 110% of the Unit Price, or in a private offering to finance future acquisitions that are accretive to cash flow per Unit (or the repayment of indebtedness incurred in connection with such accretive acquisitions) at a price no less than 105% of the Unit Price, and (iii) the issuance of up to 15 million Units as purchase price consideration in connection with future acquisitions that are accretive to cash flow per Unit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Linn Energy shall not, and shall cause its directors, officers and Affiliates not to, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy any security (as defined in the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the sale of the Purchased Units in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Purchased Units to the Purchasers.

Section 5.02. Purchaser Lock-Up. Without the prior written consent of Linn Energy, each Purchaser agrees that from and after the Closing it will not sell any of its Purchased Units prior to the Lock-Up Date; provided, however, that each Purchaser may: (i) enter into one or more total return swaps or similar transactions at any time with respect to the Purchased Units purchased by such Purchaser; or (ii) transfer its Purchased Units to an Affiliate of such Purchaser or to any other Purchaser or an Affiliate of such other Purchaser provided that such Affiliate agrees to the restrictions in this Section 5.02.

Section 5.03. Taking of Necessary Action. Each of the Parties hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts promptly to take or cause to be taken all action and promptly to do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Linn Energy and each Purchaser will, and Linn Energy shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make all filings and obtain all consents of Governmental Authorities that may be necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of the Purchasers or Linn Energy, as the case may be, advisable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Basic Documents.

Section 5.04. Non-Disclosure; Interim Public Filings. Linn Energy shall, on or before 8:30 a.m., New York time, on the first Business Day following execution of this Agreement, issue a press release acceptable to the Purchasers disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby, but excluding the material terms of the Basic Documents. Before 8:30 a.m., New York Time, on the first Business Day following the Closing Date, Linn Energy shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Commission (the “8-K Filing”) describing the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and including as exhibits to such Current Report on Form 8-K this Agreement and the other Basic Documents, in the form required by the Exchange Act. Thereafter, Linn Energy shall timely file any filings and notices required by the Commission or applicable Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and provide copies thereof to the Purchasers promptly after filing. Except with respect to the 8-K Filing and the press release referenced above (a copy of which will be provided to the Purchasers for their review as early as practicable prior to its filing), Linn Energy shall, at least two Business Days prior to the filing or dissemination of any disclosure required by this Section 5.04, provide a copy thereof to the Purchasers for their review. Linn Energy and the Purchasers shall consult with each other in issuing any press

releases or otherwise making public statements or filings and other communications with the Commission or any regulatory agency or The Nasdaq Global Market (or other exchange on which securities of Linn Energy are listed or traded) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither Party shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement, filing or other communication without the prior consent of the other, except if such disclosure is required by Law, in which case the disclosing Party shall promptly provide the other Party with prior notice of such public statement, filing or other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Linn Energy shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any press release, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser except to the extent the names of the Purchasers are included in this Agreement as filed as an exhibit to the 8-K Filing and the press release referred to in the first sentence above. Linn Energy shall not, and shall cause each of its respective Representatives not to, provide any Purchaser with any material non-public information regarding Linn Energy from and after the issuance of the above-referenced press release without the express written consent of such Purchaser.

Section 5.05. Use of Proceeds. Linn Energy shall use the collective proceeds from the sale of the Purchased Units to reduce indebtedness outstanding under Linn Energy’s revolving credit facility.

Section 5.06. Tax Information. Linn Energy shall cooperate with the Purchasers and provide the Purchasers with any reasonably requested tax information related to their ownership of the Purchased Units.

Section 5.07. Capital Account Adjustment. To the extent that the Purchase Price is less than the trading price of the Units on The Nasdaq Global Market as of the Closing Date, Linn Energy intends to specially allocate items of book and taxable income to the Purchasers so that their capital accounts in their Units are consistent, on a per-unit basis, with the capital accounts of the other holders of Units (and thus to assure fungibility of all Units). Such special allocation will occur upon the earlier to occur of any taxable period of Linn Energy ending upon, or after, (i) a book-up event or book-down event in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Linn Energy occurring after the date of the issuance of the Purchased Units or (ii) a transfer by a Purchaser of Units to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the holder. A Purchaser holding a Unit shall be required to provide notice to Linn Energy of the transfer of a Unit to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Purchaser no later than the last Business Day of the calendar year during which such transfer occurred, unless by virtue of the application of clause (i) above, Linn Energy has determined that the Units transferred are consistent, on a per-unit basis, with the capital accounts of the other holders of Units.

Section 5.08. Short Selling Acknowledgement and Agreement. Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any other Purchaser, that the Commission currently takes the position that coverage of short sales of securities “against the box” prior to the effective date of a registration statement is a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, that it will not engage in any Short Sales that result in the disposition of the Units acquired hereunder by the Purchaser until such time as the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is

declared effective (it being understood that the entering into of a total return swap should not be considered a Short Sale of Units). No Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in Short Sales in the securities of Linn Energy otherwise owned by such Purchaser or borrowed from a broker after the date the press release contemplated by this Agreement is issued by Linn Energy.

ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION, COSTS AND EXPENSES

Section 8.01. Indemnification by Linn Energy. Linn Energy agrees to indemnify each Purchaser and its Representatives (collectively, “Purchaser Related Parties”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands and causes of action, and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay and reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve

any of them as a result of, arising out of or in any way related to (i) any actual or proposed use by Linn Energy of the proceeds of any sale of the Purchased Units or (ii) the breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of Linn Energy contained herein; provided that such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of a representation or warranty is made prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty.

Section 8.02. Indemnification by Purchasers. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify Linn Energy and its Representatives (collectively, “Linn Energy Related Parties”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands and causes of action, and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay and reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them as a result of, arising out of or in any way related to the breach of any of the covenants of such Purchaser contained herein.

Section 8.03. Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after any Linn Energy Related Party or Purchaser Related Party (hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action or proceeding by a third party, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any such matter as long as the Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled (i) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and (ii) if (A) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party or (B) if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the

interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, involves no admission of wrongdoing or malfeasance by, and includes a complete release from liability of, the Indemnified Party.

ARTICLE IX

Section 9.03. No Waiver; Modifications in Writing.

(a) Delay. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or remedy.

(b) Specific Waiver. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination of any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document shall be effective unless signed by each of the Parties or each of the original signatories thereto affected by such amendment, waiver, consent, modification or termination.

Section 9.04. Binding Effect; Assignment.

(a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon Linn Energy, each Purchaser, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Except as expressly permitted by this Section 9.04(c), such rights and obligations may not otherwise be transferred except with the prior written consent of Linn Energy (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), in which case the assignee shall be deemed to be a Purchaser hereunder with respect to such assigned rights or obligations and shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 9.05. Aggregation of Purchased Units. All Purchased Units held or acquired by Persons who are Affiliates of one another shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.

or to such other address as Linn Energy or such Purchaser may designate in writing. All notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; upon actual receipt if sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or regular mail, if mailed; when receipt acknowledged, if sent via facsimile; and upon actual receipt when delivered to an air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or via electronic mail.

Section 9.08. Removal of Legend. Linn Energy shall remove the legend described in Section 4.08 from the certificates evidencing the Purchased Units at the request of a Purchaser submitting to Linn Energy such certificates, together with such other documentation as may be reasonably requested by Linn Energy or required by its transfer agent, unless Linn Energy, with the advice of counsel, reasonably determines that such removal is inappropriate; provided that no opinion of counsel shall be required in the event a Purchaser is effecting a sale of such Purchased Units pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or an effective registration statement. Linn Energy shall cooperate with such Purchaser to effect removal of such legend. Subject to 4.6(c) and Section 5.10(f) of the Limited Liability Company Agreement, the legend described in Section 4.08 shall be removed and Linn Energy shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of Purchased Units upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by state securities Laws, (i) such Purchased Units are sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement, (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides Linn Energy with an opinion of a law firm reasonably acceptable to Linn Energy (with any law firm set forth under Section 9.07 being deemed acceptable), in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of such Purchased Units may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, or (iii) such holder provides Linn Energy with reasonable assurance that such Purchased Units can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act. If Linn Energy shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the holder of such Purchased Units within three trading days after the occurrence of any of clause (i), clause (ii) or clause (iii) above a certificate without such legend to the holder or if Linn Energy fails to deliver unlegended Purchased Units within three trading days of the Purchaser’s election to receive such unlegended Purchased Units pursuant to clause (y) below, and if on or after such trading day the holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Units to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the holder of such Purchased Units that the holder anticipated receiving without legend from Linn Energy (a “Buy-In”), then Linn Energy shall, within three Business Days after the holder’s request and in the holder’s discretion, either (x) pay cash to the holder in an amount equal to the holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Units so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point Linn Energy’s obligation to deliver such unlegended Purchased Units shall terminate, or (y) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the holder such unlegended Purchased Units as provided above and pay cash to the holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Units times (B) the closing bid price on the date of exercise.

Section 9.09. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Basic Documents are intended by the Parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the Parties hereto and thereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and therein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein or therein with respect

to the rights granted by Linn Energy or a Purchaser set forth herein or therein. This Agreement and the other Basic Documents supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to such subject matter.

Section 9.10. Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of Laws.

Section 9.11. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different Parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.

Section 9.12. Termination.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated on or any time prior to the Closing:

(i) by the mutual written consent of the Purchasers entitled to purchase a majority of the Purchased Units based on their Commitment Amounts and Linn Energy; or

(ii) by the written consent of the Purchasers entitled to purchase a majority of the Purchased Units based on their Commitment Amounts or by Linn Energy, (i) if any representation or warranty of the other Party set forth in this Agreement shall be untrue in any material respect when made, or (ii) upon a breach in any material respect of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement on the part of the other Party (either (i) or (ii) above being a “Terminating Breach”); provided, that each Terminating Breach would cause the conditions to the non-terminating Party’s obligations not to be satisfied and such Terminating Breach is not cured within 20 days after written notice from the non-breaching Party.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall automatically terminate on or any time prior to the Closing:

(i) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before June 1, 2007; or

(ii) if a Law shall have been enacted or promulgated, or if any Action shall have been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction which permanently restrains, precludes, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or makes the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal.

(c) In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 9.12(a) or Section 9.12(b), this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void. In the event of such termination, there shall be no liability on the part of any Party hereto, except as set forth in Article IX of this Agreement and except with respect to the requirement to comply with

any confidentiality agreement in favor of Linn Energy; provided that nothing herein shall relieve any Party from any liability or obligation with respect to any willful breach of this Agreement.

Section 9.13. Expenses. Linn Energy hereby covenants and agrees to reimburse Pillsbury Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxx LLP for reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of the Basic Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, provided that such costs and expenses do not exceed $75,000 and that any request for such expense reimbursement be accompanied by a detailed invoice for such amount. If any action at law or equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of the Basic Documents, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such Party may be entitled.

Section 9.14. Recapitalization, Exchanges, Etc. Affecting the Purchased Units. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to the full extent set forth herein with respect to any and all units of Linn Energy or any successor or assign of Linn Energy (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise) which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for or in substitution of, the Purchased Units, and shall be appropriately adjusted for combinations, unit splits, recapitalizations and the like occurring after the date of this Agreement.

Section 9.15. Obligations Limited to Parties to Agreement. Each of the Parties hereto covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no Person other than the Purchasers (and their permitted assignees) and Linn Energy shall have any obligation hereunder and that, notwithstanding that one or more of the Purchasers may be a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, no recourse under this Agreement or the other Basic Documents or under any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith or therewith shall be had against any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of the Purchasers or Linn Energy or any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable Law, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of the Purchasers or Linn Energy or any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, as such, for any obligations of the Purchasers and Linn Energy under this Agreement or the other Basic Documents or any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith or therewith or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligation or its creation.
