Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has had access to confidential information, the parties hereto agree that money damages will be an inadequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Samson or its successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without the posting of a bond or other security). |
3. | To the extent any terms or provisions are inconsistent between this Agreement and the underlying Equity Plan, the terms and provisions of the Equity Plan shall control. |
5 |
V. | 409A Compliance |
In the event any payments to Executive required to be made upon his or her Severance under this Agreement are determined, in whole or in part, to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” (“NQDC”) within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and Executive is considered a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code at the time of such Severance, then the determination of whether and what amount of any such payment to Executive made under this Agreement constitute NQDC shall be made by Samson, and any such determination shall be final and binding on Samson and Executive. Samson makes no representation as to whether any such payment or any part thereof constitutes or may constitute NQDC. Neither Samson nor any of its directors, officers, Executives or agents shall have any liability to Executive or any other person for (i) any amounts incurred by Executive or any such other persons by reason of the determination made by Samson pursuant to this Section V or (ii) any act or omission by Samson or any of its directors, officers, executives or agents in the course of or as a result of making such determination. This Agreement is intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be administered, interpreted, and construed in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code. No payment under this Agreement that constitutes NQDC shall be accelerated unless such acceleration is permissible under Treasury Regulation Sec. 1.409A-3(j)(4).
VI. | Release Document |
The form of the general waiver and release of claims agreement required by the Release Requirements are attached as Appendix A hereto. The terms of Appendix A are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement.
VII. | Amendment and Termination of Agreement |
This Agreement may not be amended without the written consent of Executive.
VIII. | General Provisions |
1. | Any change in the ownership of the outstanding shares of voting common stock of Samson Resources Corporation or Samson Investment Company shall not alleviate the Company of its duty to perform under this Agreement. |
2. | All payments under this Agreement will be reduced by applicable tax and other statutory withholdings, and will be subject to applicable tax reporting, as determined by Samson. |
3. | Neither the execution of this Agreement, nor any modification of this Agreement, nor the creation of any fund, trust or account, nor the payment of any amounts or benefits will be construed as (i) altering any other terms or conditions of Executive’s employment, (ii) giving Executive, or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained in the service of Samson or any of its subsidiaries, or (iii) affecting or impairing Samson’s, or its subsidiaries’, ability to terminate Executive’s employment at any time prior to a Change of Control (subject only to the operative provisions of this Agreement |
6 |
and the Equity Plan). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Agreement and/or the Equity Plan do not, in any way, negate the employment-at-will or similar conditions of employment applicable to Executive, and nothing contained herein is intended to be, nor shall it be construed as, a contract for employment.
4. | This Agreement and the Equity Plan constitute the only valid and enforceable agreement between Samson and Executive relating to Executive’s potential Severance and the receipt of benefits or payments relating to such potential Severance. Further, for the avoidance of doubt, any references to a “Change of Control Agreement” contained in Executive’s Equity Plan agreements are intended to, and shall be deemed to, reference this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should any other agreement or plan relating to Executive’s potential Severance or the receipt of payments or benefits relating thereto be found to exist, such other agreement or plan is hereby deemed to be (i) of no force and effect and (ii) superseded in its entirety by this Agreement and the Equity Plan. |
5. | This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If Executive should die while any amounts would still be payable to him or her under this Agreement, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms hereof to Executive’s designee or, if there be no such designee, to Executive’s estate. Except by will or intestacy as set forth in this paragraph, no right, benefit or interest of Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, hypothecation, or set-off in respect of any claim, debt or obligation, or to execution, attachment, levy or similar process, or assignment by operation of law. Any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any action specified in the immediately preceding sentence shall, to the full extent permitted by law, be null, void and of no effect. |
6. | Except as otherwise provided herein or by applicable law: (i) no right or interest of Executive under this Agreement will be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any other manner and (ii) no attempted assignment or transfer thereof will be effective. When a payment is due under this Agreement to Executive when Executive is unable to care for his or her affairs, payment may be made directly to his or her legal guardian or personal representative. |
7. | If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provisions hereof, and this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included. |
8. | This Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to conflicts of laws (to the extent not preempted by federal law, which will otherwise control). |
7 |
9. | This Agreement’s headings and captions are provided for reference and convenience only, will not be considered part of this Agreement, and will not be employed in the construction of this Agreement. |
IX. | Execution and Acknowledgement |
