Section 4.
Drag-Along Rights.
(a)
If the Board of GeoResources approves a Change of Control transaction (an “Approved Sale”) for consideration in the form of cash or securities or a combination thereof, each Shareholder will consent to and raise no objections against such Approved Sale (including refraining from exercising any rights of appraisal) and will take all reasonably necessary actions in his, her or its capacity as a stockholder, director, member of any committee or officer of GeoResources or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates in connection with the consummation of such Approved Sale.

(b)
The obligations of the Shareholders with respect to any Approved Sale are subject to the condition that, upon the consummation of such Approved Sale, all of the Shareholders will receive the same form and amount of consideration per Share, or if any holders are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, all Shareholders will be given the substantially the same option, provided, however, for this purpose, (i) any payments to an employee under a bona fide employment agreement for the provision of services as an employee will not constitute consideration for such Shares, and (ii) each Shareholder will sell the same percentage of Shares as the percentage of Stock being sold by the other shareholders of GeoResources and the Shares will be sold on at least as favorable terms upon which such Stock is being sold by the other shareholders of GeoResources.
(c)
No Shareholder will be obligated to make any out-of-pocket expenditure prior to the consummation of the Approved Sale (excluding modest expenditures for his, her or its own postage, copies, etc., and the fees and expenses of his, her or its own counsel retained by him, her or it). Each Shareholder will be obligated to pay his, her or its pro rata share (on a fully-diluted basis) of the expenses incurred by the sellers in connection with such Transfer for the benefit of all Shareholders. No Shareholder will be obligated to pay more than his, her or its pro rata share (excluding modest expenditures for his, her or its own postage, copies, etc., and the fees and expenses of his, her or its own counsel retained by him, her, or it) or reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such Approved Sale to the extent such costs are incurred for the benefit of all Shareholders and are not otherwise paid by GeoResources or the purchaser, it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of a Shareholder for his, her or its sole benefit will not be considered costs of the transaction hereunder, and provided that a Shareholder’s liability for his, her or its pro rata share of such allocated expenses will be limited to the total purchase price received in cash by the Shareholder for its or his Shares.
(d)
Each Shareholder will be obligated to join on a pro rata but several (and not joint) basis (based on the number of Shares to be Transferred by such Shareholder) in any indemnification or other obligations that the Majority in Interest agree to provide in connection with such Approved Sale (other than any such obligations that relate specifically to a Shareholder, such as indemnification with respect to representations and warranties given by a Shareholder regarding such Shareholder’s title to and ownership of Shares); provided that no Shareholder will be obligated to indemnify or hold harmless the transferees with respect to an amount in excess of the net cash proceeds and an amount equal to the fair market value (determined at the time of such Approved Sale) of the non-cash proceeds received by such Shareholder in respect of such Approved Sale.
(e)
If GeoResources or the other shareholders of GeoResources enter into any Approved Sale for which Rule 506 promulgated by the Commission (or any similar rule then in effect) may be available with respect to such Approved Sale, each Shareholder who is not an accredited investor (as such term is defined in Rule 501 promulgated by the Commission (or any similar rule then in effect)) will, at the request of the Board, appoint either a purchaser representative (as such term is defined in Rule 501 promulgated by the Commission (or any similar rule then in effect)) designated by GeoResources, in which event GeoResources will pay the fees of such purchaser representative, or another purchaser representative (reasonably acceptable to GeoResources), in which event such Shareholder will be responsible for the fees of the purchaser representative so appointed.
Section 5.
Voting Agreements.
(a)
Each Shareholder will vote all of such Shareholder’s Shares and will take all other necessary or desirable actions within such Shareholder’s control (whether in such Shareholder’s capacity as a Shareholder of GeoResources or otherwise, and including, without limitation, attendance at meetings, in person or by proxy, for purposes of obtaining a quorum and execution of written consents in lieu of meetings), in the same manner as directed by VL.
(b)
The obligations of the Shareholders pursuant to this Section 5 will include any shareholder vote to amend the Charter or the bylaws of GeoResources as required to effect the intent of this Section 5.
