Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date, all Parties’ obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated effective immediately, and all Parties hereto shall be released from all commitments, undertakings, agreements, and obligations; provided, however, that each of the following shall survive any such termination: (a) any claim for breach of this Agreement that occurs prior to such Termination Date, and all rights and remedies with respect to such claims shall not be prejudiced in any way; (b) the Chaparral Parties’ obligations in Section 15 of this Agreement accrued up to and including such Termination Date; and (c) the last paragraph of Section 5 and Section 6 (but, in each case, only upon the occurrence of the Termination Date pursuant to clause (b) of Section 10) and Sections 11, 16, 18, 19, 20, 22, 25, 27, 31, and 36 of this Agreement. The automatic

stay applicable under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code shall not prohibit a Party from taking any action necessary to effectuate the termination of this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with the terms hereof.

12. Cooperation and Support. The Chaparral Parties shall provide draft copies of all motions, applications, and other documents that any Chaparral Party intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court that relate in any material respect to the Restructuring Transactions to counsel to the Ad Hoc Committee (as defined below) and counsel to the Prepetition Agent in accordance with Section 26 of this Agreement at least three (3) Business Days (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances) prior to the date when such Chaparral Party intends to file such document, and shall consult in good faith with such counsel regarding the form and substance of any such proposed filing with the Bankruptcy Court; provided, that the Chaparral Parties shall provide draft copies of all other motions, applications, and documents that any Chaparral Party intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court to such counsel as soon as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances, but, in no event, less than one (1) calendar day prior to the date when such Chaparral Party intends to file such document. The Chaparral Parties will use reasonable efforts to provide draft copies of all other material pleadings any Chaparral Party intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court to counsel to the Required Consenting Creditors in accordance with Section 26 of this Agreement at least three (3) Business Days (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances) prior to the date when such Chaparral Party intends to file such document, and shall consult in good faith with such counsel regarding the form and substance of any such proposed pleading. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith the Definitive Documentation that is subject to negotiation and completion, consistent with Sub-Clause (b) of Section 3 of this Agreement, and that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Definitive Documentation, including any motions or orders related thereto, shall be consistent with this Agreement and otherwise shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Chaparral Parties and the Required Consenting Creditors. The Chaparral Parties shall: (i) provide to the Ad Hoc Committee Advisors and the Consenting Prepetition Lender Advisors (each as defined below), and direct its employees, officers, advisors, and other representatives to provide the Ad Hoc Committee Advisors and the Consenting Prepetition Lender Advisors, (A) reasonable access (without any material disruption to the conduct of the Chaparral Parties’ businesses) during normal business hours to the Chaparral Parties’ books and records, (B) reasonable access to the management and advisors of the Chaparral Parties for the purposes of evaluating the Chaparral Parties’ assets, liabilities, operations, businesses, finances, strategies, prospects, and affairs, and (C) timely and reasonable responses to all reasonable diligence requests; (ii) promptly notify counsel to the Ad Hoc Committee and the Consenting Prepetition Lenders of any newly commenced material governmental or third party litigations, investigations, or hearings against any of the Chaparral Parties; and (iii) cooperate and coordinate with the Ad Hoc Committee Advisors and the Consenting Prepetition Lender Advisors on strategy matters relating to the implementation of the Restructuring Transactions in a manner consistent with this Agreement.

13. Transfers of Claims and Interests.

(a)

No Consenting Creditor shall (i) sell, transfer, assign, pledge, grant a participation interest in, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of its right, title, or interest in respect of any of such Consenting Creditor’s claims against, or interests in, any Chaparral Party, as applicable, in whole or in part, or (ii) deposit any of such Consenting Creditor’s claims against, or interests in, any Chaparral Party, as applicable, into a voting trust, or grant any proxies, or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any such claims or interests (the actions described in clauses (i) and (ii) are collectively referred to herein as a “Transfer” and the Consenting Creditor making such Transfer is referred to herein as the “Transferor”), unless such Transfer is to another Consenting Creditor or any other entity (a “Transferee”) that (x) first agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement by executing and delivering to the Chaparral Parties a Transferee Joinder substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Transferee Joinder”), and (y) solely with respect to any Transferor that is a Backstop Party, agrees in writing to be bound by the obligations of the applicable Transferor under the Backstop Commitment Agreement and is determined, after due inquiry and investigation by the Consenting Creditors and the Chaparral Parties, to be reasonably capable of fulfilling such obligations. With respect to claims against or interests in a Chaparral Party held by the relevant Transferee upon consummation of a Transfer in accordance herewith, such Transferee is deemed to make all of the representations, warranties, and covenants of a Consenting Creditor, as applicable, set forth in this Agreement as of the date of such Transfer. Upon compliance with the foregoing, the Transferor shall be deemed to relinquish its rights (and be released from its obligations, except for any claim for breach of this Agreement that occurs prior to such Transfer) under this Agreement to the extent of such transferred rights and obligations. Any Transfer made in violation of this Sub-Clause (a) of this Section 13 shall be deemed null and void ab initio and of no force or effect, regardless of any prior notice provided to the Chaparral Parties and/or any Consenting Creditor, and shall not create any obligation or liability of any Chaparral Party or any other Consenting Creditor to the purported transferee.

(b)

Notwithstanding Sub-Clause (a) of this Section 13: (i) an entity that is acting in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker shall not be required to be or become a Consenting Creditor to effect any transfer (by purchase, sale, assignment, participation, or otherwise) of any claim against any Chaparral Party, as applicable, by a Consenting Creditor to a transferee; provided, that such transfer by

a Consenting Creditor to a transferee shall be in all other respects in accordance with and subject to Sub-Clause (a) of this Section 13; and (ii) to the extent that a Consenting Creditor, acting in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker, acquires any claim against, or interest in, any Chaparral Party from a holder of such claim or interest who is not a Consenting Creditor, it may transfer (by purchase, sale, assignment, participation, or otherwise) such claim or interest without the requirement that the transferee be or become a Consenting Creditor in accordance with this Section 13; provided further, that in the event a Qualified Marketmaker is, on the voting deadline for the Plan, the beneficial holder of any claim against, or interest in, any Chaparral Party that was acquired from a Consenting Creditor, it shall vote such claim or interest in accordance with Section 5(c) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Sub-Clause (b), a “Qualified Marketmaker” means an entity that (x) holds itself out to the market as standing ready in the ordinary course of its business to purchase from customers and sell to customers claims against any of the Chaparral Parties (including debt securities or other debt) or enter with customers into long and short positions in claims against the Chaparral Parties (including debt securities or other debt), in its capacity as a dealer or market maker in such claims against the Chaparral Parties, and (y) is in fact regularly in the business of making a market in claims against issuers or borrowers (including debt securities or other debt).

14. Further Acquisition of Claims or Interests. Except as expressly set forth in Section 13 of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as precluding any Consenting Creditor or any of its affiliates from acquiring additional claims against or interests in any Chaparral Parties; provided, however, that any such claims or interests shall automatically be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and, if such acquiring Consenting Creditor is a Backstop Party, to the terms and conditions of the Backstop Commitment Agreement. Upon any such further acquisition by a Consenting Creditor or any of its affiliates, such Consenting Creditor shall promptly notify in writing the Chaparral Parties and respective counsel to the Ad Hoc Committee (as defined below) and the Prepetition Agent.

15. Fees and Expenses. Subject to Section 11 of this Agreement, and in accordance with and subject to the PSA Approval Order, which shall provide for the payment of all of the fees and expenses described in this Agreement and the Backstop Commitment Agreement, the Chaparral Parties shall pay or reimburse all reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses (regardless of whether such fees and expenses were incurred before or after the Petition Date, and in each case, in accordance with (and when due under) any applicable engagement letter or fee reimbursement letter with the Chaparral Parties or, with respect to the Indenture Trustee, the Indentures) of: (a) Milbank, Tweed, Xxxxxx & X^xXxxx LLP (“Milbank”), as counsel to an ad hoc committee of Noteholders (the “Ad Hoc Committee”); (b) Drinker Xxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, as Delaware local counsel to the Ad Hoc Committee; (c) PJT Partners LP, as financial

advisor retained on behalf of the Ad Hoc Committee; (d) Tudor, Pickering, Xxxx & Co. Advisors, LLC, as investment banker retained on behalf of the Ad Hoc Committee; (e) Korn Ferry International, a consulting firm selected by the Required Consenting Noteholders to identify potential board members ((a) through (e) collectively, the “Ad Hoc Committee Advisors”); (f) on the Plan Effective Date, the reasonable compensation, fees, expenses, and disbursements (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and agents’ fees, expenses, and disbursements) incurred by the Indenture Trustee; and (g) on the Plan Effective Date, up to $350,000 (in aggregate) of the reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses of the members of the Ad Hoc Committee; provided, that such expenses must be approved by a majority of the members of the Ad Hoc Committee ((a) through (g) collectively, the “Invoiced Fees”). The Chaparral Parties shall pay all such fees and expenses of the Ad Hoc Committee Advisors and the Indenture Trustee incurred prior to the PSA Effective Date promptly following entry of the PSA Approval Order. Unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court, no recipient of any payment hereunder shall be required to file with respect thereto any interim or final fee application with the Bankruptcy Court; provided, that, in the event that the Chaparral Parties dispute the payment of any specific portion of the Invoiced Fees (the “Disputed Invoiced Fees”), the Chaparral Parties shall first make a good faith effort to resolve such dispute with the Ad Hoc Committee Advisors or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute, the Chaparral Parties may file with the Bankruptcy Court a motion or other pleading setting forth the specific objections to the Disputed Invoiced Fees within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the applicable invoice; provided further, that pending the resolution of such a dispute, the Chaparral Parties shall pay in full the Invoiced Fees as set forth above, excluding the Disputed Invoiced Fees. To the extent that the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and a hearing on at least ten (10) days prior written notice to the Ad Hoc Committee Advisors or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, enters an order sustaining any such objections to the Disputed Invoiced Fees, the Bankruptcy Court shall determine the applicable remedy with respect to the disallowed amount of the Invoiced Fees. For the avoidance of doubt, the Chaparral Parties shall not, prior to the Termination Date, seek the termination of any engagement letter or fee letter referred to in this paragraph with respect to any of the Ad Hoc Committee Advisors. The Chaparral Parties shall pay or reimburse all reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses (regardless of whether such fees and expenses were incurred before or after the Petition Date) of the Prepetition Agent and the Prepetition Lenders in accordance with the terms of (i) the Prepetition Credit Agreement (ii) the Cash Collateral Order, and (iii) the Prepetition Agent’s Mandate Letter to move forward with its process of structuring and arranging the Exit Facility (the “Mandate Letter”), including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of attorneys, advisors, consultants, or other professionals retained by the Consenting Prepetition Lenders (collectively, the “Consenting Prepetition Lender Advisors”).

16. Consents and Acknowledgments. Each Party irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement is not and shall not be deemed to be a solicitation for consents to the Plan. The acceptance of the Plan by each of the Consenting Creditors will not be solicited until such Parties have received the Disclosure Statement and related ballots in accordance with applicable law, and will be subject to sections 1125, 1126, and 1127 of the Bankruptcy Code. This Agreement does not constitute, and shall not be

deemed to constitute, an offer for the purchase, sale, exchange, hypothecation, or other transfer of securities for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (or any other federal, state, or provincial law or regulation).

19. No Waiver. If the transactions contemplated herein are not consummated, or following the occurrence of a Termination Date, if applicable, nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver by any Party of any or all of such Party’s rights, and the Parties expressly reserve any and all of their respective rights. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement, the Plan, and all negotiations relating hereto are part of a proposed settlement of matters that could otherwise be the subject of litigation.

No Party shall have any responsibility by virtue of this Agreement for any trading by any other entity.

By executing and delivering this Agreement, each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the personal jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court solely for purposes of any action, suit, proceeding, or other contested matter arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment rendered or order entered in any such action, suit, proceeding, or other contested matter.

23. Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. Each of the Parties waives any right to have a jury participate in resolving any dispute, whether sounding in contract, tort, or otherwise, between any of the Parties arising out of, connected with, relating to, or incidental to the relationship established between any of them in connection with this Agreement.

27. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements, and understandings, whether written or oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, (i) any confidentiality agreement executed by any Consenting Creditor shall survive this Agreement and shall continue to be in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and (ii) the terms of any Definitive Documentation shall control with respect to the subject matter of such Definitive Documentation.

28. Amendments. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement may not be modified, amended, or supplemented, and no term or provision hereof or thereof waived, without the prior written consent of the Chaparral Parties and the Required Consenting Creditors.

29. Reservation of Rights.

(a)

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair, or restrict the ability of any Party to protect and preserve its rights, remedies, and interests, including without limitation, its claims against any of the other Parties.

(b)

Without limiting Sub-Clause (a) of this Section 29 in any way, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason, nothing shall be construed herein as a waiver by any Party of any or all of such Party’s rights, remedies, claims, and defenses and the Parties expressly reserve any and all of their respective rights, remedies, claims, and defenses, subject to Section 19 of this Agreement. This Agreement, the Plan, and any related document shall in no event be construed as, or be deemed to be evidence of, an admission or concession on the part of any Party of any claim or fault or liability or damages whatsoever. Each of the Parties denies any and all wrongdoing or liability of any kind and does not concede any infirmity in the claims or defenses which it has asserted or could assert.

30. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall constitute the same instrument, and the counterparts may be delivered by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail in portable document format (.pdf).

31. Confidentiality. The terms of any existing confidentiality agreements executed by and among any of the Parties as of the date hereof shall remain in full force in accordance with their terms. Except as required by applicable law, rule, or regulation

or as ordered by the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction, no Party or its advisors shall disclose to any person or entity (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other Party) the holdings information of any Consenting Creditor without such Consenting Creditor’s prior written consent; provided, that the Chaparral Parties may publicly disclose the aggregate holdings of all Consenting Creditors.

32. Severability. If any portion of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, unenforceable, void or voidable, or violative of applicable law, the remaining portions of this Agreement so far as they may practicably be performed shall remain in full force and effect and binding on the Parties.

33. Additional Parties. Without in any way limiting the requirements of Section 13 of this Agreement, additional Noteholders and Prepetition Lenders may elect to become Parties upon execution and delivery to the other Parties of a counterpart hereof. Such additional Parties shall become a Consenting Creditor under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

34. Time Periods. If any time period or other deadline provided in this Agreement expires on a day that is not a Business Day, then such time period or other deadline, as applicable, shall be deemed extended to the next succeeding Business Day.

35. Headings. The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Agreement.

36. Interpretation. This Agreement is the product of negotiations among the Parties, and the enforcement or interpretation hereof, is to be interpreted in a neutral manner, and any presumption with regard to interpretation for or against any Party by reason of that Party having drafted or caused to be drafted this Agreement or any portion hereof, shall not be effective in regard to the interpretation hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, unless otherwise specified: (a) each term, whether stated in the singular or the plural, shall include both the singular and the plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine, and the neuter gender; (b) all references herein to “Articles”, “Sections”, and “Exhibits” are references to Articles, Sections, and Exhibits of this Agreement; and (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” and “hereto” refer to this Agreement in its entirety rather than to a particular portion of this Agreement.

		(a) its pro rata share of 100% of the ownership interests in reorganized Chaparral Parent, subject to dilution by the Management Incentive Plan (as defined below), the Rights Offerings, the Commitment Premium (as defined in the Backstop Commitment Agreement), and any issuances pursuant to the Retirement Agreement and General Release and consulting agreements described below (the “New Common Equity Pool”) based on the face amount of its allowed Unsecured Notes Claim as a percentage of the aggregate face amount of all allowed Unsecured Notes Claims and allowed General Unsecured Claims as of the Plan Effective Date; and (b) the right to participate in the Unsecured Notes Rights Offering.
General Unsecured Claims		Each holder of an allowed General Unsecured Claim³ in an amount in excess of the Maximum Convenience Class Claims Amount (as defined below) shall receive, at its election, either: (a) (1) its pro rata share of the New Common Equity Pool based on the face amount of its allowed General Unsecured Claim as a percentage of the aggregate face amount of all allowed Unsecured Notes Claims and General Unsecured Claims as of the Plan Effective Date⁴ and (2) the right to participate in the GUC Rights Offering; or (b) Convenience Class Treatment (as described below).

Chaparral Energy, LLC, Case No. 5-11-cv-00634-HE (collectively, the “Litigation Claims”) pursuant to the Proposed Litigation Settlement (as defined below, and together with any other settlement on terms and conditions acceptable to the Required Consenting Noteholders and the Company, and reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Prepetition Lenders, the “Litigation Settlement”). The amount and form of any consideration proposed to be provided under any Litigation Settlement (other than the Proposed Litigation Settlement) shall be determined by the Required Consenting Noteholders and with the consent of the Company and the Required Consenting Prepetition Lenders (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). In the event that an applicable Litigation Settlement is accepted by the applicable class (or putative class, if applicable) and approved by the Bankruptcy Court (the “Litigation Settlement Scenario”), the holders of the applicable allowed Litigation Claims shall receive the consideration provided under the applicable Litigation Settlement in full and final satisfaction of their respective claims and have no further entitlement to distributions under the Plan. In the event the Litigation Settlement is not proposed by the Company, accepted by the applicable class (or putative class, if applicable), or approved by the Bankruptcy Court (the “Litigation Non-Settlement Scenario”), then each holder of an applicable allowed Litigation Claim shall be treated (and receive the same treatment as) a holder of an allowed General Unsecured Claim under the Plan; provided, that such holder shall not have the right to elect to receive the Convenience Class Treatment with respect to such claim.

Proposed Litigation Settlement		The Company shall propose the following treatment to the holders of Litigation Claims solely for settlement purposes under Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and analogous state law (the “Proposed Litigation Settlement”): the Company will consent to the certification of a class in the Chapter 11 Cases consisting of all Litigation Claims against the Company; the holders of Litigation Claims against the Company shall receive their pro rata share of $6 million in the aggregate; and payment of attorneys’ fees for the class up to $1.5 million in the aggregate.

Existing Equity Interests		All existing equity interests in Chaparral Parent will be cancelled, released, discharged, and extinguished and such holders will not be entitled to any distribution on account of such existing equity interests.

OTHER TERMS OF THE TRANSACTION


Backstop Commitment Agreement		Concurrent with entry into the Support Agreement, the Chaparral Parties and the Backstop Parties shall enter into the Backstop Commitment Agreement attached as Exhibit C to the Support Agreement.

Unsecured Notes Rights Offering		The Unsecured Notes Rights Offering shall be $50.0 million. The Unsecured Notes Rights Offering shall be conducted in accordance with the Backstop Commitment Agreement and the Rights Offering Procedures and otherwise on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company and the Required Consenting Noteholders and reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Prepetition Lenders.

GUC Rights Offering		Holders of allowed General Unsecured Claims participating in the GUC Rights Offering will be entitled to purchase an amount of Class A Shares upon the same economic terms on a per dollar of allowed General Unsecured Claims basis as purchases made by holders of allowed Unsecured Notes Claims participating in the Unsecured Notes Rights Offering. The GUC Rights Offering shall be in addition to the Unsecured Notes Rights Offering. The GUC Rights Offering will not be backstopped by any holder of an allowed Unsecured Notes Claim or any holder of an allowed General Unsecured Claim. Any holder of a General Unsecured Claim whose claim is not allowed as of the GUC Rights Offering record date who elects to participate in the GUC Rights Offering to the extent such claim is ultimately allowed (including any holder asserting a Litigation Claim in the Litigation Non-Settlement Scenario) will be required to pre-fund the purchase price into escrow pending allowance or disallowance of such claim. Any such funding and decision to participate in the GUC Rights Offering shall be irrevocable to the extent the underlying claim is allowed. Any pre-funded amounts relating to any disallowed claim shall be returned promptly after such claim or portion thereof is disallowed.

New Equity Interests		The ownership interests in reorganized Chaparral Parent shall consist of two separate classes of equity interests as follows: Class A common stock which will equal 82.5% of the New Equity Interests as of the Plan Effective Date (the “Class A Shares”) and Class B common stock which will equal 17.5% of the New Equity Interests as of the Plan Effective Date (the “Class B Shares,” and together with the Class A Shares, the “New Equity Interests”). The Class A Shares and the Class B Shares will have identical economic and voting rights, except that the Class B Shares shall be subject to redemption as described below. The Rights Offerings and the Commitment Premium shall be for Class A Shares only.

Page 38


Class B Redemption Provision		At any time after the Plan Effective Date, in connection with an initial public offering of New Equity Interests that will be listed on a nationally recognized stock exchange (the “IPO”) initiated by holders of registrable shares pursuant to the registration rights agreement, if the underwriters engaged therefor advise the selling shareholders therein that there is an insufficient number of New Equity Interests being offered for sale by the selling shareholders and the Company to successfully consummate the transaction and create sufficient liquidity for optimal trading of the Class A Shares on the exchange upon which the Class A Shares are to be listed, then the holders of Class B Shares representing at least 20% of the Company’s Class B Shares may instruct the board of directors or other governing body of the reorganized Company (the “New Board”) to exercise the redemption provision described in this paragraph and the Company shall issue Class A Shares in such IPO in an amount sufficient in the opinion of the underwriters of such IPO to create sufficient liquidity in the Class A Shares following closing of such offering and shall use the proceeds of such sale to redeem Class B Shares on a pro rata basis among all holders at a purchase price equal to the public offering price paid by the underwriters of the Class A Shares in the IPO minus any underwriting fees or discounts payable on such shares actually paid by any other selling shareholders; provided that holders of Class B Shares that were original selling shareholders shall be entitled to offset the number of Class B Shares that they voluntarily included in such offering against the number of Class B Shares constituting such holder’s pro rata portion of the total number of Class B Shares to be redeemed. Concurrent with such redemption, all other outstanding Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-to-one basis.

Conversion of Class B Shares		Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-to-one basis if (i) the IPO has not occurred prior to the date that is two (2) years after the date the Backstop Commitment Agreement is executed or (ii) the New Equity Interests are otherwise listed on a nationally recognized stock exchange (The New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market) in connection with an IPO or an underwritten offering by a selling shareholder.

Hedging Program		The Company and the Required Consenting Creditors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval and implementation of the Hedging Program in accordance with the Hedging Order.

Corporate Governance		The terms and conditions of the new corporate governance documents of the reorganized Company (including the bylaws and certificates of incorporation or similar documents, among other governance documents) shall be acceptable to the Required Consenting Noteholders and reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Prepetition Lenders.

		On the Plan Effective Date, the New Equity Interests will be subject to a stockholders agreement (the “New Stockholders Agreement”) containing terms and conditions that are acceptable to the Required Consenting Noteholders and reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Prepetition Lenders. The New Stockholders Agreement will govern the

Page 39


		composition of the New Board and will include customary approval rights for major shareholders and customary minority protections, in each case as determined by the Required Consenting Noteholders (with the consent of the Company and the Required Consenting Prepetition Lenders not to be unreasonably withheld), which may include, but are not limited to, transfer restrictions for the New Equity Interests, tag-along rights, drag along rights, preemptive rights, information rights, and other customary protections for transactions of this type. All holders of the New Equity Interests and their successors and assigns will be subject to the terms of the New Stockholders Agreement, regardless of whether such holder executes or delivers such New Stockholders Agreement.

Board of Directors		The initial directors of the New Board shall consist of seven (7) directors, who shall include (a) the chief executive officer of Chaparral Parent and (b) six (6) other directors (including the Chairman of the New Board) selected by the Required Consenting Noteholders. Subject to Section 15 of the Support Agreement, the Company shall reimburse all reasonable fees and expenses of Korn Ferry International to assist the Required Consenting Noteholders in identifying candidates for the New Board.

Management Incentive Plan		As soon as reasonably practicable after the Plan Effective Date, reorganized Chaparral Parent shall enter into a management incentive plan (the “Management Incentive Plan”) which shall provide for the distribution of up to seven percent (7)% of the New Equity Interests in the form of Class A Shares on a fully diluted basis to certain members of senior management on terms and conditions acceptable to the New Board (the “MIP Equity”). The MIP Equity shall be allocated among such members of senior management at the discretion of the New Board as soon as reasonably practicable after the Plan Effective Date.

Releases & Exculpation		To the maximum extent permissible by law, the Plan and Confirmation Order will contain customary mutual releases and other exculpatory provisions in favor of the Company, the Consenting Noteholders, the Consenting Prepetition Lenders, the Prepetition Agent, the Indenture Trustees, the Noteholders, holders of existing equity interests that provide a release, and each of their respective current and former affiliates, subsidiaries, members, professionals, advisors, employees, directors, and officers, in their respective capacities as such. Such release and exculpation shall include, without limitation, any and all claims, obligations, rights, suits, damages, causes of action, remedies, and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereinafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, including any derivative claims and avoidance actions, of the Company, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, existing or hereinafter arising, in law, equity, or otherwise, that the Company would have been legally entitled to assert in its own right (whether individually or collectively), or on behalf of the holder of any claim or equity interest (whether individually or collectively) or other entity, based in whole or in part upon any act or omission, transaction, or other occurrence or

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any such releases shall bind all parties who affirmatively vote to accept the Plan, those parties who abstain from voting on the Plan if they fail to opt-out of the releases, and those parties that vote to reject the Plan unless they opt-out of the releases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Support Agreement or the Term Sheet, the failure of the Confirmation Order to reflect any release contemplated hereunder shall not give rise to a Company Termination Event or result in the failure of a condition precedent to the confirmation of the Plan or the occurrence of the Plan Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Support Agreement or this Term Sheet, nothing in the Plan or the Confirmation Order shall release any obligation under the Plan or the Exit Facility.

Injunction & Discharge		The Plan and Confirmation Order will contain customary injunction and discharge provisions.

Cancellation of Instruments, Certificates, and Other Documents		On the Plan Effective Date, except to the extent otherwise provided herein, in the Plan, or in the Exit Facility, all instruments, certificates, and other documents evidencing debt of or equity interests in Chaparral Parent and its subsidiaries shall be cancelled, and the obligations of Chaparral Parent and its subsidiaries thereunder, or in any way related thereto, shall be discharged.
