(v) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall invest or otherwise use the proceeds received from the sale of the Shares in such manner as it would qualify as an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter”, “principal investor” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

Except as provided in this Section 5 and in Section 6 hereof, the Underwriters shall pay their own costs and expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel and any road show expenses incurred by them; provided that the Company has agreed to reimburse the Underwriters for such other costs and expenses in an amount up to $[●].

6. Indemnification and Contribution.

6.1. Subject to the limitations in this Section 6, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents thereof and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable costs of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of one firm and one local counsel per jurisdiction in which any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense occurs (collectively, the “Damages”), joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, any Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information, any Free Writing Prospectus (including any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus) or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent that any such Damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that has been made therein or omitted therefrom in reliance upon and in conformity with the information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through you, for use in connection therewith. The indemnification provided in this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have.

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Representative and its Affiliates and each person, if any, who controls the Representative within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (the “Designated Entities”), from and against any and all Damages (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in

- 28 -

connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) (i) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any material prepared by or with the consent of the Company for distribution to Participants in connection with the Directed Share Program or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) arising out of or based upon the failure of any Participant to pay for and accept delivery of Directed Shares that the Participant agreed to purchase; or (iii) arising out of, related to, or in connection with the Directed Share Program, other than Damages (or expenses relating thereto) that are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Designated Entities.

6.2. In addition to its other obligations under this Section 6, the Company agrees that, as an interim measure during the pendency of any claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding arising out of or based upon any statement or omission, or any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company Parties contained herein or failure to perform its obligations hereunder, all as set forth in this Section 6, the Party against whom indemnification is being sought will reimburse each Underwriter on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding (to the extent documented by reasonably itemized invoices therefor), notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of the obligation of the Company to reimburse each Underwriter for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that any such interim reimbursement payment is so held to have been improper, each Underwriter shall promptly return it to the person(s) from whom it was received. Any such interim reimbursement payments that are not made to the Underwriters within thirty (30) days of a request for reimbursement shall bear interest compounded daily at a rate determined on the basis of the base lending rate announced from time to time by The Wall Street Journal from the date of such request.

6.3. If (i) any action, suit, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation) or claim shall be brought by any third party against any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter (each, an “Indemnified Party” and together, the “Indemnified Parties”) and (ii) indemnity may be sought against the Company pursuant to Section 6.1 (each, an “Indemnifying Party” and together, the “Indemnifying Parties”) in respect of such action, suit, proceeding or claim, (a) the Indemnified Party(ies) shall promptly notify in writing the Indemnifying Party(ies), and (b) such Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of the Indemnified Party(ies), including the employment of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party(ies) and the payment of all reasonable fees of and expenses incurred by such counsel, provided that (y) the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party(ies) shall not relieve it (them) from any liability that it (they) may have under this Section 6 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure and (z) the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party(ies) shall not relieve it (them) from any liability that it (they) may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Section 6. The Indemnified Party(ies) shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, suit,

- 29 -

proceeding or claim and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the sole expense of the Indemnified Party(ies), unless (i) the Indemnifying Party(ies) has (have) agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the Indemnifying Party(ies) has (have) failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party(ies) or (iii) the named parties to any such action, suit, proceeding or claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party(ies) and the Indemnifying Party(ies), and the Indemnified Party(ies) shall have been advised by its (their) counsel that one or more legal defenses may be available to it that may not be available to the Indemnified Party(ies), or that representation of the Indemnified Party(ies) and the Indemnifying Party(ies) by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them (in which case the Indemnifying Party(ies) shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party(ies) but the Indemnifying Party(ies) shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties). The Indemnifying Party(ies) shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its (their several) written consent, but if settled with such written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, suit, proceeding or claim, the Indemnifying Party(s) agree(s) to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Party from and against any Damages by reason of such settlement or judgment, but in the case of a judgment only to the extent stated in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 hereof.

6.4. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement and any person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the several indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter set forth in Section 6.3 hereof, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through you expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information, any Free Writing Prospectus (including any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus) or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, or any amendment or supplement thereto, which information is specified in Section 6.11. If (i) any action, suit, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation) or claim shall be brought or asserted against the Company, any of its directors, any of its officers or any such controlling person based on the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information or any Free Writing Prospectus (including any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus), or any amendment or supplement thereto, and (ii) indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such action, suit, proceeding or claim, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company by Section 6.3 (except that, if the Company shall have assumed the defense thereof, such Underwriter shall not be required to do so, but may employ separate counsel in such action, suit, proceeding or claim and participate in the defense of the Company, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such Underwriter’s expense), and the Company, any of its directors, any of its officers and any such controlling persons, shall have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by Section 6.3.

- 30 -

6.5. In any event, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any current or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which an indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Representative or any person who controls the Representative within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act is a party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless (i) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of all Underwriters and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory thereto, from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include any statements as to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Underwriters and any such controlling person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time any Underwriter (or any such controlling person) shall have requested the Company to reimburse such Underwriter (or controlling person) for any fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by Section 6.3 hereof, the Company agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (a) such settlement is entered into more than thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of the aforesaid request, (b) the Company shall not have reimbursed such Underwriter (or controlling person) in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (c) such Underwriter (or controlling person) shall have given the Company at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice of its intention to settle.

6.6. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient for any reason whatsoever to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Damages referred to herein, then an Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, from the offering and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement 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 and several fault of the Company on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative and several benefits received by the Company on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering and sale of the Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, 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 on the one hand, or by the Underwriters on the other hand, and the Parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

6.7. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 was determined by a pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 6.6 hereof. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Damages referred to in Section

- 31 -

6.6 hereof shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any claim, action, suit or proceeding. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if indemnity may be sought pursuant to the last paragraph in Section 6.1 in respect of such action or proceeding, then in addition to such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Representative for the defense of any losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of the Directed Share Program, and all persons, if any, who control the Representative within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of the underwriting commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public. 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 Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the respective numbers of Firm Shares set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto (or such numbers of Firm Shares increased as set forth in Section 9 hereof) and not joint.

6.8. Notwithstanding Section 6.2 hereof, any Damages for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section 6 shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party as Damages are incurred after receipt of reasonably itemized invoices therefor.

6.9. A successor to any Underwriter or the Company, the directors or officers of any Underwriters or the Company or any person controlling any Underwriters or the Company as referred this Section 6 shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 6. The term “successors” as used herein, shall not include any purchaser of the Shares from any Underwriter merely by reason of such purchase.

6.10. It is agreed that any controversy arising out of the operation of the interim reimbursement arrangements set forth in Section 6.2 hereof, including the amounts of any requested reimbursement payments and the method of determining such amounts, shall be settled by arbitration conducted pursuant to the Code of Arbitration Procedure of FINRA. Any such arbitration must be commenced by service of a written demand for arbitration or written notice of intention to arbitrate, therein electing the arbitration tribunal. In the event the Party demanding arbitration does not make such designation of an arbitration tribunal in such demand or notice, then the Party responding to said demand or notice is authorized to do so. Such arbitration would be limited to the operation of the interim reimbursement provisions contained in Section 6.2 hereof, and would not resolve the ultimate propriety or enforceability of the obligation to reimburse expenses that is created by the provisions of Section 6.2 hereof.

6.11. The Underwriters severally confirm and the Company acknowledges and agrees that the disclosures appearing under the caption “Underwriting” in the most recent Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus constitute the only information concerning such Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information, any Free Writing Prospectus (including any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus) or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or in any amendment or supplement thereto.

the effect of which, in any such case described in clause (a) or (b), is, individually or in the aggregate, in the judgment of the Representative, so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Shares being delivered on such Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

7.1.9. Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date, or any Additional Closing Date, (i) no downgrading shall have occurred in the rating accorded the Company’s debt securities by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization”, as that term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Act and (ii) no such nationally recognized statistical rating organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of any of the Company’s debt securities.

- 36 -

7.1.11. The Shares shall have been approved for listing on NYSE, subject to notice of issuance.

7.2. All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents will be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to you and your counsel.

10.2. Notice of such cancellation shall be promptly given to the Company and its counsel by e-mail or telephone and shall be subsequently confirmed by letter.

20. No Fiduciary Duty. Notwithstanding any pre-existing relationship, advisory or otherwise, between the Parties or any oral representations or assurances previously or subsequently made by any of the Underwriters, the Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) nothing herein shall create a fiduciary or agency relationship between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand; (ii) the Underwriters have been retained solely to act as underwriters and are not acting as advisors, expert or otherwise, to the Company in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares or any other services the Underwriters may be deemed to be providing hereunder, including, without limitation, with respect to public offering price of the Shares, and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate; (iii) the relationship between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, is entirely and solely commercial, and the price of the Shares was established by the Company and the Underwriters based on discussions and arms’ length negotiations and the Company understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iv) any duties and obligations that the Underwriters may have to the Company shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; and (v) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company acknowledges that the Underwriters may have financial interests in the success of the offering and sale of the Shares that are not limited to the difference between the price to the public and the purchase price paid to the Company for the Shares and such interests may differ from the interests of the Company, and the Underwriters have no obligation to disclose, or account to the Company for any benefit they may derive from such additional financial interests. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable law, any claims it may have against the Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees that the Underwriters 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 or any of its shareholders, managers, employees or creditors.

21. Research Analyst Independence.

The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by the Underwriters’ independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by any Underwriter’s investment banking division. The Company acknowledges that each of the Underwriters 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 the Class A Common Stock or any other securities of the Company.

Re:    Bounty Minerals, Inc. (the “Company”) - Restriction on Stock Sales

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter agreement is delivered to you pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) to be entered into by Bounty Minerals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), as issuer, and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., as representative of the Underwriters as named and defined therein (the “Representative” or “you”).

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Underwriting Agreement.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters intend to effect a public offering of the Class A Common Stock, as described in and contemplated by the Registration Statement (the “Offering”).

The undersigned recognizes that it is in the best financial interests of the undersigned, as an [officer/director/owner of stock, options, warrants or other securities] of the Company that the Company complete the Offering.

The undersigned further recognizes that the Class A Common Stock and/or the Company’s options, warrants or other securities (together, the “Company Securities”) held by the undersigned are, or may be, subject to certain restrictions on transferability, including those imposed by United States federal securities laws. Notwithstanding these restrictions, the undersigned has agreed to enter into this letter agreement to further assure the Underwriters that the Company Securities of the undersigned, now held or hereafter acquired, will not enter the public market at a time that might impair the underwriting effort.

Therefore, as an inducement to the Underwriters to execute the Underwriting Agreement, the undersigned hereby acknowledges and agrees that the undersigned will not (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of (collectively, a “Disposition”) of any Company Securities, or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or any rights to purchase or otherwise acquire, any Company Securities held by the undersigned or acquired by the undersigned after the date hereof, or that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”), pursuant to the Act and the Exchange Act, for a period of 180 days following the consummation of the Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”), without the prior written consent of the Representative or (ii) exercise or seek to exercise or effectuate in any manner any rights of any nature that the undersigned has or may have hereafter to require the Company to register under the Act the Disposition of any of the Lock-Up Securities held by the undersigned, or to otherwise participate as a selling securityholder in any manner in any registration effected by the Company under the Act, including under the Registration Statement, during the Lock-Up Period. The foregoing restrictions are expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging, collar (whether or not for any consideration) or other transaction that is designed to or reasonably expected to lead or result in a Disposition of Lock-Up Securities during the Lock-Up Period, even if such Lock-Up Securities would be disposed of by someone other than such holder.
