(a) No Party shall enter into any agreements or arrangements of any kind with any Person with respect to any Shares on terms inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement (whether or not such agreements or arrangements are with Persons that are Parties to this Agreement), including agreements or arrangements with respect to the acquisition or disposition of any Shares in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement.
(b) Each Party acknowledges that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms and that a remedy at law for any breach or attempted breach of this Agreement will be inadequate. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief in case of any such breach or attempted breach and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, and further agrees to waive (to the extent legally permissible) any legal conditions required to be met for the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief (including securing or posting any bond in order to obtain equitable relief). Each Party further agrees that, in the event of any action for an injunction or other equitable remedy in respect of such breach or enforcement of specific performance, it will not assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
Section 16. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute an agreement binding on all Parties hereto, notwithstanding that all such Parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. Facsimile copies of signatures shall constitute original signatures for all purposes of this Agreement and any enforcement hereof. The failure of any Stockholder to execute this Agreement shall not make it invalid as against any other Stockholder.
Section 17. Further Assurances.
Each Party hereto shall do and perform or cause to be done and performed all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments, and other documents as any other Party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
Section 18. Director and Officer Actions.
No director or officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any Stockholder as a result of any acts or omissions taken under this Agreement in good faith.
15
Section 19. No Recourse.
This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or cause of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against, the Persons that are expressly identified as Parties hereto and no past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or representative of any Party hereto shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the Parties to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby.
Section 20. Waiver of Corporate Opportunities.
(a) To the extent allowed by law, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any other analogous doctrine, shall not apply with respect to the Corporation or any of its officers or directors, or any of their respective Affiliates, and the Corporation renounces any expectancy that any of the directors or officers of the Corporation will offer any such corporate opportunity of which he or she may become aware to the Corporation, except that the doctrine of corporate opportunity shall apply with respect to any of the directors or officers of the Corporation only with respect to a corporate opportunity (i) that was offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation, (ii) that is one the Corporation is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for the Corporation to pursue and (iii) to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer such opportunity to the Corporation without violating any legal obligation (such a corporate opportunity, a “Subject Opportunity”).
(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, in recognition and anticipation that (i) certain directors, principals, officers, employees or other representatives of The Blackstone Group L.P. and ISQ Global Infrastructure Fund II L.P. (the “BCP Sponsors”) and their respective Affiliates (including ISQ, BX Aggregator, BX Permian and New Raptor) may serve as directors, officers or agents of the Corporation, (ii) the BCP Sponsors and their respective Affiliates (including ISQ, BX Aggregator, BX Permian and New Raptor) may now engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage or other business activities that overlap with or compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage and (iii) members of the Board who are not employees of the Corporation and their Affiliates that may be designated, nominated or elected by the BCP Sponsors or their respective Affiliates (the “Non-Employee Directors”) may now engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage or other business activities that overlap with or compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage, the provisions of this Section 20 are set forth to regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation with respect to certain classes or categories of business opportunities as they may involve any of the BCP Sponsors, the Non-Employee Directors or their respective Affiliates and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation and its directors, officers and stockholders in connection therewith.
(c) None of (i) the BCP Sponsors or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) any Non-Employee Director (including any Non-Employee Director who serves as an officer of the Corporation in both his or her director and officer capacities) or his or her Affiliates (the Persons identified in clauses (i) and (ii) above being referred to, individually, as an “Identified Person”) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have any duty to refrain from directly or indirectly (1) engaging in the same or similar business activities or lines of business in which the Corporation or any of its Affiliates now engages or proposes to engage or (2) otherwise competing
16
with the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Identified Person shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders or to any Affiliate of the Corporation for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person engages in any such activities. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Corporation hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in, or right to be offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity that may be a corporate opportunity for an Identified Person and the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, except as provided in Section 20(d). Subject to Section 20(d), in the event that any Identified Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or other business opportunity that may be a corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself and the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, such Identified Person shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have no duty to communicate or offer such transaction or other business opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Affiliates and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders or to any Affiliate of the Corporation for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder, director or officer of the Corporation solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself, or offers or directs such corporate opportunity to another Person.
(d) The Corporation does not renounce its interest in any Subject Opportunity offered to any Non-Employee Director (including any Non-Employee Director who serves as an officer of this Corporation), and the provisions of Section 20(c) and Section 20(e) shall not apply to any such Subject Opportunity.
(e) In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 20, a corporate opportunity shall not be deemed to be a potential corporate opportunity for the Corporation if it is a business opportunity that (i) the Corporation is neither financially or legally able, nor contractually permitted to undertake, (ii) from its nature, is not in the line of the Corporation’s business or is of no practical advantage to the Corporation or (iii) is one in which the Corporation has no interest or reasonable expectancy.
Section 21. Dividends and Distributions.
Subject to the Corporation’s governing documents and applicable provisions of law, regulation, legal duty (including fiduciary duty) or requirement, or rule of any National Securities Exchange, for so long as Apache, I Squared or Blackstone is entitled to designate a director pursuant to Section 2(a), the Corporation shall not take any action to reduce, delay or discontinue the Altus Dividend prior to December 31, 2023 without the prior written consent of each of Apache, I Squared and Blackstone, as applicable, permitting such action. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that Apache, I Squared or Blackstone is no longer entitled to designate a director pursuant to Section 2(a), such Stockholder’s prior written consent shall not be required under this Section 21.
Section 22. Covered Related Party Transactions.
Any transaction between the Corporation or its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and a Stockholder or Affiliate of a Stockholder, on the other hand, that constitutes a Covered Related Party Transaction shall require the prior approval of 66% or more of the disinterested directors on the Board, as determined by the Board.
17
Section 23. Dividend Reinvestment Plan.
The Parties shall negotiate and enter into definitive documentation reasonably promptly following the date of this Agreement related to a dividend reinvestment plan with the terms described in Exhibit B hereto, to be implemented promptly following the Closing Date.
Section 24. Financial Statements. The Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to each Stockholder (so long as such Stockholder and its Affiliates Beneficially Own 10% or more of the outstanding Shares) (together, the “Recipient Parties”), at such Stockholder’s request:
(a) No later than 30 days after the end of each of the first three calendar quarters of each fiscal year, an unaudited consolidated balance sheet, consolidated income statement, and consolidated statement of cash flows of the Corporation and its subsidiaries for such calendar quarter;
(b) No later than 30 days after the end of each fiscal year, a draft consolidated balance sheet, draft consolidated income statement, and draft consolidated statement of cash flows of the Corporation and its subsidiaries for such fiscal year; and
(c) No later than 55 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Corporation Annual Financials (as defined in the LPA) for such fiscal year.
(d) Any Recipient Party may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Corporation requesting that such Person not receive from the Corporation any information provided pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 24; provided, however, that such Person may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice (unless subsequently revoked), the Corporation shall not deliver such information pursuant to this Section 24.
Section 25. Disclosure of Information. The Recipient Parties acknowledge that they will receive information from or regarding the Corporation and its subsidiaries in the nature of trade secrets or that otherwise is confidential information or proprietary information (as further defined below, “Confidential Information”), the release of which would be damaging to the Corporation or Persons with which the Corporation conducts business. Each Recipient Party shall hold in strict confidence any Confidential Information that such recipient receives pursuant to this Agreement, and each Recipient Party shall not disclose such Confidential Information to any Person (including any Affiliates) other than another Recipient Party or a director or officer of the Corporation, or otherwise use such information for any purpose other than to evaluate, analyze, and keep apprised of the Corporation’s and its subsidiaries’ assets and their interest therein and for the internal use thereof by a Recipient Party or its Affiliates, except for disclosures (i) to comply with any laws (including applicable stock exchange or quotation system requirements), provided, that a Recipient Party must notify the Corporation promptly of any disclosure of Confidential Information which is required by law, and any such disclosure of Confidential Information shall be to the minimum extent required by law, (ii) to Affiliates, partners, members, stockholders, investors, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, consultants, lenders, professional advisers or representatives of the Recipient Party or its Affiliates (provided, that such Recipient Party shall be
18
responsible for assuring such partners’, members’, stockholders’, investors’, directors’, officers’, employees’, agents’, attorneys’, consultants’, lenders’, professional advisers’ and representatives’ compliance with the terms hereof, except to the extent any such Person who is not a partner, member, stockholder, director, officer or employee has agreed in writing addressed to the Corporation to be bound by customary undertakings with respect to confidential and proprietary information similar to this Section 25), or to Persons to which that Recipient Party’s Shares are proposed to be transferred, but only if the recipients of such information have agreed to be bound by customary confidentiality undertakings similar to this Section 25, (iii) of information that a Recipient Party also has received from a source independent of the Corporation and that such Recipient Party reasonably believes such source obtained without breach of any obligation of confidentiality to the Corporation, (iv) of information obtained prior to the formation of the Corporation, provided, that this clause (iv) shall not relieve any Recipient Party or any of its Affiliates from any obligations it may have to any other Recipient Party or any of its Affiliates under any existing confidentiality agreement, (v) that have been or become independently developed by a Recipient Party or its Affiliates or on their behalf without using any of the Confidential Information, (vi) that are or become generally available to the public (other than as a result of a prohibited disclosure by such Recipient Party or its representatives), (vii) in connection with any proposed transfer of all or part of a Recipient Party’s Shares or the proposed sale of all or substantially all of a Recipient Party or its direct or indirect parent, to (A) advisers or representatives of the Recipient Party, (B) its direct or indirect parent or (C) Persons to which such interests may be transferred, but only if the recipients of such information have agreed to be bound by customary undertakings with respect to confidential and proprietary information similar to this Section 25 or (viii) to the extent the Corporation shall have consented to such disclosure in writing. The term “Confidential Information” shall include any information pertaining to the Corporation’s or any of its subsidiaries’ business which is not available to the public, whether written, oral, electronic, visual form or in any other media, including, without limitation, such information that is proprietary, confidential or concerning the Corporation’s (or any of its subsidiaries’) ownership and operation of their respective assets or related matters, including any actual or proposed operations or development project or strategies, other operations and business plans, actual or projected revenues and expenses, finances, contracts and books and records. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent applicable, the Recipient Parties and their Affiliates may make disclosures to their respective direct and indirect limited partners and members such information (including Confidential Information) as is customarily provided to current or prospective limited partners in private equity funds sponsored or managed by Affiliates of Blackstone and ISQ. Each Recipient Party acknowledges that Confidential Information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement may include material nonpublic information concerning the Corporation and its related parties or their respective securities and hereby confirms that it is familiar with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
