(d) Any Transfer in violation of this Section 8 shall be void ab initio. The Parties shall cause any Person obtaining an ownership interest in AMI Lands to join this Agreement. No Transfer by one Party shall be binding upon any other Party until the transferring Party has furnished each other Party with a copy of the instrument evidencing the Transfer.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, none of the following shall be restricted by this Section 8 (and no consent shall be required for), (i) a change of control of, or sale, assignment or other transfer of equity of, any Party or any of its Affiliates (except to the extent in conflict with the last sentence of Section 8(a) or the last sentence of Section 8(b)), or (ii) a sale, assignment or transfer by DBR, Landowner or TPR of any or all of the AMI Lands or rights thereto (subject to compliance with Sections 8(c) and 8(d)).

9. Reciprocity. The Parties acknowledge and agree that TPR, at any time during the Term of this Agreement after the [***] shall have the option to exercise the same rights and enjoy the same benefits with respect to the DBR Lands as have been granted and otherwise made available to WBSL hereunder, financial and otherwise, with respect to the TPR Lands upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to WBSL, DBR, and Landowner (the date on which such election becomes effective, the “Election Date”); [***] Each reference to “TPR” in this Section 9 will be read as “TPR or its designated Affiliate.” If TPR properly exercises such option, the following will apply:

(a) From and after the Election Date, subject to Sections 9(b) and 9(e), as between TPR, Landowner and DBR, (i) TPR shall have the same rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the DBR Lands as WBSL has under this Agreement vis a vis TPR with respect to the TPR Lands; [***].

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the rights and obligations of TPR and DBR under Section 9(a) shall be subject to the following:

(i)

[***]

(ii)

TPR facilities on DBR Lands may not unreasonably interfere with any then existing WBSL facilities or any facilities set forth in the most recent WBSL Development Plan.

(iii)

The Royalties payable by TPR shall be those set forth in Sections 4(a)(ii) and 4(a)(iii), as the same may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 4(d), and such Royalties shall be owed with respect to all volumes of Produced Water that enter or are transported through TPR’s Produced Water Facilities. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Section 4(b) nor Section 4(c) shall apply to TPR’s obligations to pay Royalties.

(c) Subject to Section 9(b) and 9(e), the rights and obligations set forth in Section 9(a) shall be upon the same terms and conditions as otherwise provided in this Agreement, without any requirement to amend this Agreement or execute any additional documentation, provided that the Parties hereto shall execute such commercially reasonable documentation in confirmation of the foregoing as either TPR or its Affiliates or DBR or Landowner may reasonably request. Such reciprocal rights and benefits shall be applicable to the DBR Lands to the same extent as the rights and benefits of WBSL to the TPR Lands. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9 or the implementation thereof shall in any manner diminish or otherwise adversely affect any of WBSL’s rights or obligations under this Agreement.

(d) [***]

(e) [***]

10. Insurance. Each Party shall carry insurance with responsible carriers as set forth on Schedule 2. Each WBSL Party required to carry insurance pursuant to this Agreement shall name TPR as an additional insured, and each TPR Party required to carry insurance pursuant to this Agreement shall name DBR, Landowner and WBSL as additional insureds. Each Party will provide copies of such insurance policies (and certificates of insurance) to any other Party within ten days of such other Party’s request for same. Each Party agrees that its obligation to carry and maintain insurance pursuant to this Section 10 shall be independent of its indemnity obligations herein. All insurance policies required pursuant to this Section 10 shall provide for waivers of subrogation among the Parties. Industry standard blanket endorsements may be utilized to satisfy the additional insured and waiver of subrogation requirements. Upon request, a Party will promptly provide the other Parties with a copy of all reports made by its insurers or to others of accidents or occurrences occurring on the AMI Lands.

11. State and Federal Laws, Rules and Regulations. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement are hereby expressly made subject to Applicable Laws. Each Party shall prepare and file all such applications, notices, reports and other information concerning its operations to the extent required by Applicable Law. Each Party shall bear its own expenses incurred in participating in any hearings or proceedings.

12. Force Majeure. If any Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by Force Majeure to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, other than the obligation to make money payments, that Party shall give to all other Parties prompt written notice of the Force Majeure with reasonably full

particulars concerning it; thereupon, the obligations of the Party giving the notice, other than the obligation to make money payments, so far as they are affected by the Force Majeure, shall be suspended during, but no longer than, the continuance of the Force Majeure. The affected Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remedy the Force Majeure as quickly as possible. The requirement that any Force Majeure shall be remedied with all reasonable dispatch shall not require the settlement of strikes, lockouts, or other labor difficulty by the Party involved, contrary to its wishes; how all such difficulties shall be handled shall be entirely within the discretion of the Party concerned. The term “Force Majeure” as used in this Agreement means an act of God, strike, lockout, or other industrial disturbance, act of public enemy, war, blockade, public riot, lightning, fire, storm, flood, explosion, epidemic, pandemic, governmental restraint, any action or inaction by any Governmental Authority, unavailability of equipment, and any other cause, whether of the kind specifically enumerated above or otherwise, that is not reasonably within the control of the Party claiming suspension.

13. Term and Termination.

(a) The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until the fifteenth anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”) and shall continue thereafter for successive one year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) until any Party gives the other Parties written notice at least 180 days prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term of its intent to terminate this Agreement, following which this Agreement will terminate at the end of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term. No Party may terminate this Agreement except as provided in this Section 13(a) or Section 14.

(b) The termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any Party hereto from any payment, liability or other obligation or any remedy therefor which has accrued or attached prior to the date of such termination. Upon termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction of all obligations hereunder, in the event a memorandum of this Agreement has been filed of record, each Party is authorized to file of record in all necessary recording offices a notice of termination, and each Party hereto agrees to execute such notice of termination as to each other Party’s interest, upon request of any Party, if such requesting Party has satisfied its financial obligations.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon termination of this Agreement, (i) WBSL shall retain ownership of its Produced Water Facilities on the AMI Lands and the rights to operate such Produced Water Facilities in accordance with any Transaction Documents, (ii) TPR shall continue to receive (x) payments as set forth in Section 4 with respect to the New Infrastructure that is located on the AMI Lands and exists as of the date of the termination and (y) payments as set forth in Section 6(a) with respect to Produced Water (including recycled, treated and raw Produced Water) marketing, sales and redelivery, and treatment and delivery services required in connection therewith, for use in oil and gas drilling and completion operations within or outside the AMI Lands, and (iii) all other agreements entered into by WBSL and TPR with respect to the TPR Lands will continue in full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, WBSL shall not be permitted under this Agreement to construct Produced Water Facilities on the TPR Lands following termination of this Agreement. Further, upon termination of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement which are intended to extend beyond its termination, including the liability, warranty, and confidentiality provisions, and the provisions applicable to the enforcement of those provisions and/or the enforcement of rights and obligations incurred hereunder that are not fully discharged prior to the termination of this Agreement, shall survive termination to the extent necessary to effect the intent of the Parties and/or enforce such rights and obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, in addition to and not in limitation of the rights otherwise described in this Section 13(c), the following Sections of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement: Sections 4, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18, 21, 22, 23 and 29.

14. Defaults and Remedies. If any Party fails to pay any amount owed, or fulfill any other financial obligation under this Agreement within the time period required for such payment hereunder, or fails to perform any of its material obligations pursuant to this Agreement (any such event, a “Default”) then in addition to any other remedies provided for in this Agreement, the remedies set forth below shall apply. Any Default by WBSL shall be a Default solely by WBSL and not any of DBR or Landowner, unless DBR and/or Landowner is independently in Default, and vice versa. Election of any one or more of the following remedies shall not preclude the subsequent use of any other remedy specified below or any other remedy available by Applicable Law to a non-defaulting Party.

(a) Any Party may deliver to the Party in default a notice of Default (“Notice of Default”), which specifies the Default, specifies the action to be taken to cure such Default, and specifies that failure to take such action will result in the exercise of one or more of the remedies provided in this Section. If the Default is not cured within 30 days following the delivery of such Notice of Default (which 30 day period will be extended for so long as the Party in Default has commenced attempting to cure within the initial 30 day period and continues to diligently pursue a cure, up to a maximum of 90 additional days), all of the rights of the defaulting Party granted by this Agreement may, upon notice, be suspended until the Default is cured, without prejudice to the right of the non-defaulting Party or Parties to continue to enforce the obligations of the defaulting Party previously accrued or thereafter accruing under this Agreement. The rights of a defaulting Party that may be suspended hereunder at the election of the non-defaulting Parties shall include the right to receive information related to the AMI Lands or the operations thereon conducted during the period of such Default and the right to receive payment pursuant to Section 4. Further, without prejudice to the other rights and remedies of the non-defaulting Party or Parties, each non-defaulting Party shall be entitled to offset any amounts owing from the defaulting Party pursuant to this Agreement against any amounts owed to such non-defaulting Party.

(b) In the event any Party shall be required to bring legal proceedings to enforce this Agreement, then the prevailing Party shall also be entitled to recover all court costs, costs of collection, and reasonable attorney’s fees.

15. Payment of Taxes. Each Party shall report its own income and expenses on its respective individual or consolidated tax returns, and shall be responsible for its own taxes resulting therefrom (whether local, state, or federal). For the avoidance of doubt: (i) the applicable WBSL Parties will pay all taxes levied on Produced Water or attributable to their Produced Water Facilities, the Produced Water operations, and the DBR Lands, together with any corporate income taxes, ad valorem, and property or similar taxes of the WBSL Parties; (ii) the applicable TPR Parties will pay all taxes levied on their operations, and the TPR Lands, together with any corporate income taxes, ad valorem, and property or similar taxes of the TPR Parties, and (iii) no Party shall deduct amounts for taxes from the payments made pursuant to Section 4. In the event of any conflict between this Section 15 and the taxes provision of any Transaction Document, the obligations of such Transaction Document shall control.

16. Costs and Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and each Transaction Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses.

17. Confidentiality. At all times during the term of this Agreement the Parties shall have access at all reasonable times to the books and records of the other Parties to the extent related to this Agreement or operations on the AMI Lands (subject to Section 4(h)); provided that each Party shall hold in confidence, and shall require its Affiliates, and its and their respective principals, officers, employees, representatives and agents to hold in confidence the terms of this Agreement and all of the following information belonging to any other Party: (i) any accountings, (ii) all information pertaining to revenues and expenses, (iii) any records or other financial information provided by or on behalf of a Party related to the New Infrastructure on the AMI Lands, (iv) any books, records, computer printouts, designs or information regarding Produced

Water Facilities, and (v) any other proprietary information regarding Produced Water Facilities on the AMI Lands (collectively, “Confidential Information”). No Party may disclose such Confidential Information to others or permit the use of such Confidential Information by others for their benefit or to the detriment of any other Party hereto; provided that each Party may disclose Confidential Information (i) to any other Party or its or their Affiliates and their respective principals, officers, employees, representatives, agents, working interest owners, investors, potential investors, lenders, potential financing sources and bona fide prospective acquirors and (ii) as required by Applicable Law, including complying with any applicable disclosure obligations in connection with any securities offering or periodic or current reporting requirement, or any rule or requirement of any national securities exchange, or as required or requested pursuant to legal, administrative or judicial process, including an audit or examination by a regulator or self-regulatory organization (including by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process); provided that, in the case of disclosure under this clause (ii), the disclosing Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the disclosure of Confidential Information, including if applicable by requesting confidential treatment in respect of such Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the following information shall not constitute “Confidential Information”: (x) information which was known to the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis prior to being furnished to the receiving Party by the disclosing Party; (y) information disclosed to the receiving Party by third parties that, to the knowledge of the receiving Party, are not bound by restrictions on disclosure with the disclosing Party with respect to such information; or (z) information that is or hereafter becomes generally available to the public other than through a breach of this Agreement by the receiving Party or its Affiliates, or any of its or their respective principals, officers, employees, representatives and agents.

18. Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture of any kind among the Parties. The rights of the Parties shall be individual and not joint or collective. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY DUTY (INCLUDING ANY FIDUCIARY DUTY) THAT MAY OTHERWISE EXIST AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, (I) NO PARTY SHALL HAVE A FIDUCIARY DUTY TO ANY PERSON BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT, AND (II) THE SOLE DUTIES, IF ANY, OF EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES TO ANY PERSON BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE CONTRACTUAL DUTIES IMPOSED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

19. Covenants Binding. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall extend to, and be binding upon, the Parties, their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and shall constitute covenants running with the land with respect to the AMI Lands.

20. Further Assurances. The Parties agree to take such further actions, including the execution and delivery of any documents, as may be required, necessary, or desirable for the performance of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.

21. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under the present or future laws effective during the term hereof, such provision shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of the Agreement, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

22. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of laws of another jurisdiction.

(b) Each Party agrees to attempt in good faith to resolve disputes prior to filing suit. Within five days following delivery of written notice by one Party to another of a perceived breach or other dispute, a senior executive of each Party will meet together in person (or if agreed by both parties, via telephone) to discuss ways to correct the dispute prior to taking further action.

(c) EACH PARTY SHALL BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER EXCLUSIVELY IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN MIDLAND COUNTY, TEXAS, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION OF INCONVENIENT FORUM WITH RESPECT TO, SUCH COURTS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING FROM, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THE NEGOTIATION, FORMATION, CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, PERFORMANCE, NON-PERFORMANCE, AND/OR BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(d) NOTWITHSTANDING ANY CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT CONSTITUTING DIRECT DAMAGES), INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, OF ANY TYPE OR CHARACTER, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFIT, LOSS OF PRODUCTION, REVENUE OR ANTICIPATED BUSINESS ARISING FROM OR RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CAUSE(S) THEREOF, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT A PARTY IS LIABLE TO AN UNRELATED THIRD PARTY FOR THE SAME.

23. Entire Agreement; Headings; Precedence. This Agreement, together with the Transaction Documents, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all previous agreements, written or oral. Except as provided otherwise in this Agreement, this Agreement may not be amended or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by all Parties. In the event of an irreconcilable conflict between the terms of any Transaction Document and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.

24. Limitation of Grant. Any and all uses of the AMI Lands other than those expressly granted by this Agreement to any Party are deemed to be reserved by the owner of such property and are not intended to be granted, and are not granted, to any Party by this Agreement. Any use beyond the scope of rights expressly granted to the Parties, respectively, by the terms herein must be expressly agreed upon in writing by the Parties, with valid consideration agreed upon and tendered to owner of the affected portion of the AMI Lands before such additional rights to use of the AMI Lands described herein commence.

25. Independent Counsel. Each Party acknowledges that it has had sufficient opportunity to, and has, consulted with its attorneys.

26. Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one document signed by all Parties, or in separate documents, which shall be counterparts hereof, or may be joined in, confirmed and ratified by any and all necessary parties by a separate document specifically referring this Agreement.

27. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement does not create any rights, claims or benefits inuring to any person that is not a Party hereto nor create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto.

28. Acknowledgement and Ratification. As necessary to ensure that this Agreement survives termination or expiration of the Master Lease, during the Term, by executing this Agreement, Landowner hereby acknowledges and ratifies the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Upon termination or expiration of the Master Lease, all of DBR’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall automatically, ipso facto revert to Landowner, as successor in interest to DBR, and Landowner shall provide written notice to the other Parties of such reversion.

29. Certain Representations and Covenants. Each Party represents and warrants to the other Party, as of the Effective Date, that (a) it is duly formed and existing and in good standing under its jurisdiction of formation (and is in good standing with all regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over it), and is duly qualified to do business under the laws of such jurisdiction and each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required to perform its obligations under this Agreement, (b) it has the limited liability company or corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, perform its obligations under this Agreement, cause this Agreement to burden the DBR Lands (with respect to DBR and Landowner) and the TPR Lands (with respect to TPR), and to grant the rights granted to other Parties by this Agreement and (c) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it and is legally binding upon it (assuming that the other Party has duly executed and delivered this Agreement), enforceable in accordance with its terms. Each Party covenants to take all actions necessary to maintain its good standing with regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over it (except where a failure to do so would not materially and adversely affect the ability of such Party to comply with this Agreement).

30. Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Party recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by it of any applicable covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement shall cause the other Party to sustain irreparable harm for which they would not have an adequate remedy at law, and therefore in the event of any such breach the aggrieved Party shall, without the posting of bond or other security (any requirement for which each Party hereby waives), be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants, agreements and obligations, including injunctive and other equitable relief, in addition to any other remedy to which it might be entitled, (a) a Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of any covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement and (b) in the event that any action or suit is brought in equity to enforce such covenants or agreements, neither Party shall allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law.
