(b) The Registration Statement constitutes an “automatic shelf registration statement” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Act) filed within three years of the date of this Agreement, and the Company is a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Act). No order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued by the Commission and no proceeding for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Act against the

Company or related to the offering has been initiated or threatened by the Commission.

(c) (i) At the time of filing the Registration Statement and (ii) at the date of this Agreement, the Company was not and is not an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Rule 405.

The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from any such document made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriter, if any, specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in this Agreement.

(e) As of the Applicable Time, neither (i) the General Use Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es) issued at or prior to the Applicable Time and the preliminary prospectus supplement, dated September 12, 2016, including the base prospectus, dated August 12, 2016 (which is the most recent Statutory Prospectus distributed to investors generally), and the other information, if any, stated in Schedule II to this Agreement to be included in the Disclosure Package, all considered together (collectively, the “Disclosure Package”), nor (ii) any electronic road show or other written communications reviewed and consented to by the Underwriter and listed on Schedule III hereto (each a, “Company Additional Written Communication”) or any individual Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the Disclosure Package, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from any Statutory Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Company Additional Written Communication in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriter specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in this Agreement.

If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information then contained in the Registration Statement or as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if republished immediately following such event or development, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, (i) the Company has promptly notified or will promptly notify the Underwriter and (ii) the Company has promptly amended or will promptly amend or supplement such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission.

If applicable, the pro forma financial information set forth or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package is, in all material respects, fairly presented and prepared on a basis consistent with the historical financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, except to the extent stated therein, and gives effect to assumptions used in the preparation thereof which have been made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

(i) The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act); such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its subsidiaries is made known to the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Company by others within the Company or any subsidiary, and such disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably effective to perform the functions for which they were established subject to the limitations of any such control system. The Company and each of its subsidiaries maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in

The Company made available to the Underwriter or its counsel for review true and complete copies of all minutes or draft minutes of meetings, or resolutions adopted by written consent, of the board of directors of the Company and each significant subsidiary of the Company within the meaning of Regulation S-X (each “Significant Subsidiary”) and each committee of each such board in the past three years, and all agendas for each such meeting for which minutes or draft minutes do not exist.

Each Significant Subsidiary is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property requires such qualification or licensing, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or licensed or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) If at any time when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) is required by the Act to be delivered in connection with sales of such Offered Securities any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to further amend or supplement the Prospectus in order that the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser or if it shall be necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to comply with the requirements of the Act or the Rules and Regulations, the Company will, as soon as practicable, prepare and file (if required) with the Commission such amendment or supplement, whether by filing documents pursuant to the Exchange Act or otherwise, as may be necessary to correct such untrue statement or omission or to make the Registration Statement comply with such requirements.

(c) If the Disclosure Package is being used to solicit offers to buy the Offered Securities at a time when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Disclosure Package conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement then on file, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriter, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to comply with applicable law, the Company will prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriter and to any dealer upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Disclosure Package so that the statements in the Disclosure Package as so amended or supplemented will not contain any statement of untrue material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements not misleading, in the light of the circumstances when delivered to a prospective purchaser, or so that the Disclosure Package, as amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the Registration Statement, or so that the Disclosure Package, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.

(d) The Company will make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 18 months after the date of this Agreement, earnings statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (which need not be audited) complying with Section 11(a) of the Act and the Rules and Regulations (including, at the option of the Company, Rule 158 under the Act).

(e) The Company, during the period when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) is required by the Act to be delivered in connection with sales of such Offered Securities, will give the Underwriter notice of its intention to file any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the Disclosure Package, whether pursuant to the Act or otherwise and will furnish the Underwriter with copies of any such amendment or supplement or other documents proposed to be filed in a reasonable time for review by the Underwriter in advance of filing.

(f) The Company, during the period when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) is required by the Act to be delivered in connection with sales of such Offered Securities, will notify the Underwriter, as soon as practicable, and confirm the notice in writing, of: (i) the effectiveness of any amendment to the Registration Statement; (ii) the mailing or delivery to the Commission for filing of any supplement to the Prospectus or the Disclosure Package, or any document to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act; (iii) the receipt of any comments from the Commission with respect to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Disclosure Package; (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the Disclosure Package or for additional information; (v) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the threat or initiation of any proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Act; and (vi) the receipt by the Company of any notice of objection of the Commission to the use of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the Act. The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if any such stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment.

(g) The Company will deliver to the Underwriter, as soon as practicable, as many conformed copies of the Registration Statement (as originally filed) and of each amendment thereto (including, except to the extent available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system, exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Act) as the Underwriter may reasonably request and will also deliver to the Underwriter, upon request, a conformed copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto for the Underwriter.

(h) The Company will cooperate with the Underwriter to qualify the Offered Securities for offering and sale under the applicable Blue Sky or securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions of the United States as the Underwriter may designate, and will cooperate in maintaining such qualifications in effect for as long as may be required for the distribution of such Offered Securities except that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified. In each jurisdiction in which such Offered Securities or the sale thereof shall have been qualified as above provided, the Company will cooperate with the Underwriter to make and file such statements and reports in each year as may be required by the laws of such jurisdiction. The Company will cooperate in the determination of the eligibility for investment of the Offered Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Underwriter reasonably requests.

(i) So long as the Offered Securities are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Underwriter, as soon as they are available, copies of all reports or other communications (financial or other) furnished to holders of the Offered Securities, and copies of any reports and financial statements furnished to or filed with the Commission or any national securities exchange or automatic quotation system; provided the Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports and financial statements to the Underwriter to the extent they are filed on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system.

(j) The Company will use the net proceeds received by it in connection with this offering in the manner described in under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(k) The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Offered Securities.

(l) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to list, subject to notice of issuance, the Offered Securities on the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”).

(m) For a period of 75 days after the date of the Prospectus, the Company will not (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any

option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Commission a registration statement under the Act relating to, any Securities or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Securities, or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing, or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Securities or any such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, other than (A) the Securities to be sold hereunder, (B) any Securities issued upon the exercise of options granted under stock-based compensation plans of the Company and its subsidiaries and (C) any Securities deliverable to settle purchase contracts relating to the Company’s 7.50% Tangible Equity Units.

Section 5. Free Writing Prospectuses. The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Underwriter, and the Underwriter represents and agrees, that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Offered Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405, required to be filed with the Commission. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Underwriter is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents that it has treated and agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely Commission filing where required, legending and record keeping.

Section 6. Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriter. The obligations of the Underwriter to purchase and pay for the Firm Securities on the First Closing Date and the Optional Securities to be purchased on each Optional Closing Date will be subject to the accuracy in all material respects, unless otherwise qualified by materiality (in which case such representations and warranties will be accurate), of the representations and warranties of the Company herein (as though made on such Closing Date), to the performance by the Company in all material respects of its covenants and other obligations hereunder and to the following further conditions:

(B) No information has come to such counsel’s attention that causes such special counsel to believe that (i) the Registration Statement, as of its effective date and as of the date of this Agreement, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to

state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) the Disclosure Package, as of the Applicable Time, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, as of their respective dates and as of the Closing Date, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that in the case of each of clauses (i)-(iii) above, such counsel need not express any view as to the financial statements, financial schedules and other financial, accounting, reserve and production data contained or incorporated by reference therein.

With respect to subparagraphs (A) and (B) above, such counsel may state that their opinion and belief are based upon their participation in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, and any amendments or supplements thereto, and review and discussion of the contents thereof, but are without independent check or verification except as specified and without assumption of any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained or incorporated therein except as otherwise provided in clauses (iii), (iv), (v), (ix), (x) and (xi) above.

(ii) The execution and delivery of the this Agreement, the issuance of the Offered Securities, the incurrence of the obligations set forth herein, the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated and the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder do not and will not conflict with or constitute or result in a breach of, or default under: (a) any judgment, order or decree of the United States government, governmental instrumentality thereof or any United States court having jurisdiction over the Company, any Significant Subsidiary, or any of their property, which is material to such entities, taken as a whole; (b) any provision of any

contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or similar agreement or instrument known to such counsel to which the Company or any Significant Subsidiary is a party or by which they or any material part of their property is bound; or (c) federal laws or the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, in all cases except for such conflicts, breaches or defaults as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(iii) Neither the Company nor any of its Significant Subsidiaries is in violation of its charter or bylaws or similar organizational documents and, to the best of such counsel’s knowledge no default (or event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time would be a default) has occurred in the due performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument that is described or referred to in the Registration Statement or the Disclosure Package or filed or incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, except for such defaults as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(iv) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body (each, a “Filing”) is required under any laws for the due execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the issuance of the Offered Securities, the incurrence of the obligations set forth herein, the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated and the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, except (i) such Filings as have been obtained or made, (ii) Filings under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Offered Securities by the Underwriter and (iii) such filings under the Act or the Exchange Act as may be required under Section 4 hereof.

Such counsel shall also state that each of the Registration Statement, the documents incorporated by reference therein, the Prospectus and any supplements or amendments thereto (except the financial statements, financial schedules and other financial, accounting, reserve and production data contained or incorporated by reference therein), at the time it was filed with the Commission, appeared on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; and

With respect to the paragraph above, such counsel may state that his or her opinion and belief are based upon his or her participation, or the participation of the attorneys over whom he or she supervises, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, and any amendments or supplements thereto, and review and discussion of the contents thereof, but are without independent check or verification except as specified and without assumption for any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained or incorporated therein.

In rendering the foregoing opinion or opinions, such counsel may opine only as to the Federal laws of the United States, the laws of the State of Texas and the statutes of the State of Delaware governing corporations, partnerships and limited liability companies. Such counsel may also state that they have relied as to certain factual matters on information obtained from public officials, officers of the Company and other sources believed by them to be responsible. In rendering the foregoing opinion, such counsel may have received and may rely upon such certificates and other documents and information as he or she may reasonably request to pass upon such matters.

Such counsel may also state that they have relied as to certain factual matters on information obtained from public officials, officers of the Company and other sources believed by them to be responsible.

(c) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred (i) any Material Adverse Change which, in the judgment of the Underwriter, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Offered Securities; (ii) any downgrading in the rating of any debt securities of the Company by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., or Fitch Ratings Inc., or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any debt securities of the Company (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating) or any announcement that the Company has been placed on negative outlook (other than an announcement, following a ratings upgrading by a ratings agency, that the Company has been placed on negative outlook by such ratings agency); (iii) any change in U.S. or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls, the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Underwriter, impractical to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of, or to enforce contracts for the sale of, the Offered Securities, whether in the primary market or in respect of dealings in the secondary market; (iv) any suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally on the Exchange, or any setting of minimum or maximum prices for trading on such exchange; (v) any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market; (vi) any banking moratorium declared by any U.S. federal or New York authorities; (vii) any major disruption of settlements of securities, payment, or clearance services in the United States or any other country where such securities are listed or (viii) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or any other national or international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of the Underwriter, the effect of any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity or emergency is such as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of, or to enforce contracts for the sale of, the Offered Securities.

Section 8. Indemnity and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification of Underwriter by the Company. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in

any part of the Registration Statement at any time, any Statutory Prospectus as of any time, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Company Additional Written Communication, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriter, if any, specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the information described as such in this Agreement.

(b) Indemnification of the Company. The Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers who sign the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Underwriter Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Underwriter Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any part of the Registration Statement at any time, any Statutory Prospectus as of any time, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Company Additional Written Communication, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriter, if any, specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Underwriter Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the information described as such in this Agreement.

(c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided

further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, provided that the indemnifying party shall reimburse any legal or other expenses incurred by such indemnified party for separate counsel (including a local counsel) if (i) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party or (ii) the named parties in any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party reasonably determines that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interest between them. It is understood and agreed that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any action or related action in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time the indemnified party shall have requested in writing that the indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this Section 8, the indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the indemnifying party of such request and (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to appropriate local counsel) at any time for any indemnified party in connection with any one action or separate but substantially similar or related actions arising in the same jurisdiction out of the same general allegations or circumstances.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection

(a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter from the Company hereunder. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which the Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 8(d).

(e) Control Persons. The obligations of the Company under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriter under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Underwriter may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Company, to each officer of the Company who has signed the Registration Statement, and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.

Section 9. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company or its officers, and of the Underwriter set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Underwriter, the Company, or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. If the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Underwriter is not

consummated for any reason other than because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6(c)(iii), (iv), (vi), (vii) and (viii) hereof, the Company will reimburse the Underwriter for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities, and the respective obligations of the Company and the Underwriter pursuant to Section 8 hereof shall remain in effect. In addition, if any Offered Securities have been purchased under this Agreement, the representations and warranties in Section 1 hereof and all obligations under Section 4 hereof shall also remain in effect.

Section 10. [Reserved].

Section 11. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed, or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Underwriter shall be directed to it at: J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10179, Attention: Equity Syndicate Desk, with a copy to the Legal Department; and notices to the Company shall be directed to it at: 1201 Lake Robbins Drive, The Woodlands, Texas ###-###-####, attention of Vice President and Treasurer, or to such other address or person as may be designated in any such notice, or to such other address or person as may be designated in any such notice.

Section 12. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriter and the Company, and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned herein is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto or thereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Section 8 hereof and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein or therein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof and thereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties and their respective successors and such controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of any Offered Securities from the Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

Section 13. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed by the parties in counterparts which together shall constitute one and the same agreement among the parties and shall become effective at such time as each of the parties shall have signed such counterparts and shall have notified the other parties thereof.

Section 15. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) No Other Relationship. The Underwriter has been retained solely to act as underwriter in connection with the sale of the Offered Securities and that no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Company and the Underwriter have been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Prospectus, irrespective of whether the Underwriter has advised or is advising the Company on other matters;

(b) Arm’s-Length Negotiations. The price of the Offered Securities set forth in this Agreement was established by the Company following discussions and arm’s-length negotiations with the Underwriter, and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(c) Absence of Obligation to Disclose. The Company has been advised that the Underwriter and its affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company, and that the Underwriter has no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and

(d) Waiver. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Underwriter for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees that the Underwriter shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including stockholders, partners, employees or creditors of the Company.

Section 16. Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriter is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies its clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of its clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriter to properly identify its clients.

Section 17. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Company and the Underwriter hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 18. Research Analyst Independence. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriter’s research analysts and research department is required to be independent from its investment banking divisions and is subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that the Underwriter’s research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of its respective investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriter with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by its independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by the Underwriter’s investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriter

is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Re: Anadarko Petroleum Corporation – Public Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen:

As an inducement to the Underwriter to execute the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), pursuant to which an offering will be made of shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Securities”), of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation and any successor (by merger or otherwise) thereto (the “Company”), the undersigned hereby agrees pursuant to the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement (this “Lock-Up Agreement”) that during the period specified in the following paragraph (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Securities, enter into a transaction which would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Securities, whether any such aforementioned transaction is to be settled by delivery of the Securities or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any such transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, without, in each case, the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“J.P. Morgan”). In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan, it will not, during the Lock-Up Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Securities or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities.

The Lock-Up Period will commence on the date of this Lock-Up Agreement and continue and include the date 75 days after the public offering date set forth on the final prospectus used to sell the Securities (the “Public Offering Date”) pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

Any Securities received upon exercise of options or other securities of the Company granted to the undersigned will also be subject to this Lock-Up Agreement. The restrictions in this Lock-Up Agreement shall not apply to (a) any transactions relating to Securities acquired in the open market after the closing of the offering, provided that with respect to any sale or other disposition of such Securities, no filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) (other than on Form 5) or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made by any party in connection with subsequent sales of such Securities acquired in such open market transactions during the Lock-Up Period, (b) any exercise of options or vesting or exercise of any other equity-based award, in each case, outstanding on the

Public Offering Date, and in each case under the Company’s equity incentive plan or any other plan or agreement described in the prospectus included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, and the withholding of Securities by the Company for the payment of taxes due upon such exercise or vesting, provided that any Securities received upon such exercise or vesting will also be subject to this Lock-Up Agreement, (c) transfers as a bona fide gift or gifts, (d) transfers to a family member, trust, family limited partnership or family limited liability company for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or his or her family members, (e) transfers by testate or intestate succession, provided that in each transfer pursuant to clauses (c)-(e) the transferee agrees to be bound in writing by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement prior to such transfer, such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value and no filing or public announcement by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Exchange Act or otherwise shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with such transfer (other than a filing on a Form 5), or (f) (i) the establishment of any written contract, instruction or plan that satisfies all of the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 (a “Rule 10b5-1 Plan”) under the Exchange Act or (ii) sales pursuant to any Rule 10b5-1 plan currently in effect on the date hereof; provided, however, that with respect to clause (i), no sales of Securities or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Securities, shall be made pursuant to such a Rule 10b5-1 Plan prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (as the same may be extended pursuant to the provisions hereof); and provided further, that no party is required to publicly announce, file, or report the establishment of such Rule 10b5-1 Plan in any public report, announcement, or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act during the Lock-Up Period and does not otherwise voluntarily effect any such public report, announcement, or filing regarding such Rule 10b5-1 Plan.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent and registrar are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of shares of Securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Agreement.

This Lock-Up Agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and the successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of the undersigned.

It is understood that if the Underwriting Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties thereto yet terminates (other than the provisions thereof that survive termination) prior to payment for and delivery of the Offered Securities (as defined therein), the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Lock-Up Agreement. Further, this Lock-Up Agreement shall lapse and become null and void if the Public Offering Date shall not have occurred on or before November 8, 2016. This agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Very truly yours,

[Name of officer or director]
