(b)    The Company agrees that, during period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the later of (i) September 30, 2015 and (ii) the date on which all of the Obligations shall have been satisfied in full (the “Exclusivity Period”), the Company will not, and will direct each of its and its affiliates’ respective officers, directors, managers, equity holders and agents (collectively, the “Company Parties”), not to (i) solicit, initiate or encourage any Alternative Bid (as defined below); (ii) enter into any agreement with respect to any Alternative Bid; or (iii) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person or entity any information with respect to, or take any other action to facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative Bid. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any Company Party or any of their respective affiliates, whether or not such person or entity is purporting to act on behalf of the Company, or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 2(b) by the Company. The Company shall promptly (but in no event more than 24 hours after the receipt thereof by any Company Party) advise the Lender orally and in writing of any Alternative Bid or any inquiry with respect to or which could lead to any Alternative Bid, which notice shall include (i) the material terms and conditions of such Alternative Bid or inquiry (including the financial terms and other material terms and conditions thereof) and (ii) the identity of the person or entity making any such Alternative Bid or inquiry. As used in this Section 2(b), the term “Alternative Bid” shall mean any proposal to acquire in any manner (i) any equity security (including any equity-linked security) of the Company and/or (ii) any interest in the Company’s natural gas liquid (“NGL”) process designs, equipment, configurations, process workbooks, research data, formulae, and/or NGL flare to fuel conversion know-how, trade secrets or other intellectual property (the “NGL Technology”), whether by equity purchase, asset purchase, merger, joint venture, licensure or any other business relationship relating to the NGL Technology, other than transactions made in the ordinary course of the business of the Company consistent with past practice. The Company agrees that it will not, and agrees to cause the Company Parties not to, resume or continue existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any person or entity conducted previously with respect to any Alternative Bid. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Lender will rely on the agreements in this Section 2(b) in expending the time, money and effort needed to conduct its reviews and diligence and, if applicable, to negotiate toward the execution of definitive agreements to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Letter of Intent dated as of June 22, 2015 between the Company and the Lender.

(c)    The Company agrees that, during the period commencing upon the termination of the Exclusivity Period and ending on the six-month anniversary of the termination of the Exclusivity Period, the Company will not, and will direct each of the Company Parties not to, enter into any binding agreement or other commitment with respect to an Alternative Bid until the 30^th day after the date on which the Company shall have provided written notice to the Lender of such Alternative Bid (the “Bid Notice”), which Bid Notice shall include (i) the material terms and conditions of such Alternative Bid (including the financial terms and other material terms and conditions thereof) and (ii) the identity of the person or entity making any such Alternative Bid. During such 30-day period, the Lender shall have the right, at its sole option, to make its own offer to acquire or license the NGL Technology (the “Lender Bid”). If the Lender declines to submit a Lender Bid within such 30-day period, or if the material terms of the Lender Bid do not in all respects match the material terms of the Alternative Bid as set forth in the Bid Notice, the Company may proceed to consummate the transaction contemplated by the Alternative Bid. If the material terms of the Lender Bid match the material terms of the Alternative Bid as set forth in the Bid Notice, then the parties shall work expeditiously to consummate the transaction contemplated by Lender Bid.

(d)    The Company acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure the damages that would be suffered by the Lender if the Company fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 2, and that, in the event of any such failure, the Lender will not have an adequate remedy at law. The Lender shall, therefore, be entitled to obtain specific performance of each of the Company’s obligations under Section 2 and to obtain immediate injunctive relief. The Company shall not urge, as a defense to any proceeding for such specific performance or injunctive relief, that the Lender has an adequate remedy at law.

3.Grant of Security Interest. As security for the Obligations, the Company hereby pledges to the Lender a security interest in all right, title and interests of the Company in and to the property described in Schedule 1 hereto, whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired (collectively, the “Collateral”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest granted herein shall not extend to, and the term “Collateral” shall not include, the following assets (“Excluded Assets”): any equipment or other property financed by a third party, provided that such third party’s Liens are Liens of the type described in subsection (e) of the definition of Permitted Liens; provided, further, that such equipment or other property shall be deemed “Collateral” hereunder if such third party’s Lien is released or otherwise terminated.
