CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENT

THIS CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), is made and entered into effective as of ___________ (the “Effective Date”), by and between Exterran Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and _________(“Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to enter into an agreement regarding their respective rights and obligations in connection with a Change of Control during the Term; and

WHEREAS, (i) concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Company and Executive have entered into a Severance Benefit Agreement (the “Severance Agreement”), and (ii) if there is a Qualifying Termination of Employment under the Severance Agreement that does not constitute a Qualifying Termination of Employment for purposes of this Agreement, then the Severance Agreement shall apply in lieu of this Agreement.

THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Executive agree as follows:

1.Term. This Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue until the second (2^nd) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”); provided, however, that thereafter, the term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for successive one (1) year periods (each, a “Renewal Term”) (the Initial Term, plus any Renewal Terms, plus, in the event of Executive’s Qualifying Termination of Employment (as defined below) for Good Reason, any additional time period necessitated by the Company’s right to cure as set forth in the definition of Good Reason, are collectively referred to as the “Term”), unless at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, the Board shall give written notice to Executive that the Term of this Agreement shall cease to be so extended. However, if a Change of Control shall occur during the Term, the Term shall automatically continue in effect for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Change of Control plus, in the event of Executive’s Qualifying Termination of Employment for Good Reason, any additional time period necessitated by the Company’s right to cure as set forth in the definition of Good Reason, and thereafter shall automatically terminate. In addition, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon Executive’s termination of employment. Termination of this Agreement shall not alter or impair any rights of Executive arising under this Agreement on or prior to such termination.

2.Termination of Employment. Upon a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company during the Term for any reason, the Company shall pay to Executive, not later than the sixtieth (60^th) day following the Date of Termination (or such earlier date as may be required by applicable law), an amount, in a lump sum payment, equal to the sum of: (A) Executive’s earned but unpaid Base Salary through the Date of Termination, (B) any portion of Executive’s vacation pay accrued, but not used, through the Date of Termination, and (C) any unreimbursed business expenses as of the Date of Termination. Vested benefits (if any) under any employee benefit plans shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable plans. In addition to the foregoing, if Executive incurs a Qualifying Termination of Employment during the Term, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in Section 3 hereof. If Executive’s employment terminates during

the Term for any reason other than due to a Qualifying Termination of Employment, then Executive shall not be entitled to any benefits under Section 3 of this Agreement.

3.Benefits Upon a Qualifying Termination of Employment. If Executive incurs a Qualifying Termination of Employment during the Term, then subject to Sections 3(e) and 3(g) below, Executive will be entitled to receive the following payments and benefits:

(a)Lump Sum. The Company shall pay to Executive, not later than the sixtieth (60^th) day following the Date of Termination, an amount, in a lump sum payment, equal to the sum of:

(i)    An amount equal to two times Executive’s Base Salary plus two times Executive’s Target Short-Term Incentive; plus

(ii)    Executive’s Target Short-Term Incentive for the Termination Year (prorated to the Date of Termination); plus    

(iii)    Any earned but unpaid Short-Term Incentive for the Company’s fiscal year ending prior to the Termination Year (and, if the prior year’s Short-Term Incentive has not yet been calculated as of the Date of Termination, such amount shall be payable when calculated, but in no event later than March 15^th of the year following the Termination Year); plus

(iv)    Amounts previously deferred by Executive, if any, or earned but not paid, if any, under any Company incentive and nonqualified deferred compensation plans or programs as of the Date of Termination; plus

(v)    An amount equal to eighteen (18) months of (A) Executive’s premium payments for continuation coverage pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents following the Separation Date minus (B) the cost to Executive of premium payments for healthcare coverage for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents during Executive’s employment with the Company (calculated based on Executive’s elections as in effect on the Date of Termination).

(b)    Awards. All stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or other awards based in common stock of the Company and all cash-based incentive awards held by Executive and not previously vested shall become 100% vested as of the later of: (x) the Date of Termination and (y) the Change of Control to which such Qualifying Termination of Employment relates; provided, that if Executive’s Date of Termination occurs prior to a Change of Control, such awards shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest upon a Change of Control occurring within six (6) months thereafter and shall automatically terminate upon the earlier of the six (6)-month anniversary of the Date of Termination (to the extent such awards do not become vested on or prior to such six (6)-month anniversary) or the applicable expiration date that would apply to such awards had Executive remained employed by the Company; and provided further, that if the achievement of the performance goals applicable to any performance units or performance shares held by Executive on the later of the Date of Termination or Change of Control to which such Qualifying Termination of Employment relates (as applicable) has not yet been measured, then such performance goals shall be

deemed attained at target level(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to an award that is subject to Section 409A (as defined below), the acceleration of vesting under this Section 3(c) shall not cause an impermissible acceleration of payment or change in form of payment of such award under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the terms of any Company (or affiliate) plan or agreement between the Company (or affiliate) and Executive to the contrary, the accelerated vesting of all equity awards required pursuant to the terms of this Section 3(b) shall govern.

(c)    Release. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no payment shall be made or benefits provided pursuant to Sections 3(a) or 3(b) of this Agreement unless Executive signs and returns to the Company within twenty-one (21) days (or forty-five (45) days to the extent required by applicable law) following the date of a Qualifying Termination of Employment, and does not revoke within seven (7) days thereafter, the Waiver and Release attached here as Exhibit B (the “Release”). In the event the time period during which Executive is provided to consider and/or revoke the Release spans two calendar years, the payment under Section 3(a) shall be made during the second such calendar year (or any later date specified under an applicable provision of the Agreement), even if the Release is executed by Executive and becomes irrevocable during the first such calendar year.

(d)    Acknowledgement. The parties acknowledge and agree that the cash severance amounts payable to Executive under Section 3(a) are not eligible compensation for purposes of the 401(k) Plan (and thus is not eligible for a matching contribution thereunder).

(e)    Severance Offset. Except as otherwise expressly provided in a written agreement between Executive and the Company, any cash severance payments payable under Section 3(a) shall be offset or reduced by the amount of any cash severance amounts payable to Executive under any other individual agreement the Company or an affiliate may have entered into with Executive or any severance plan or program maintained by the Company or any affiliate for employees in general, but only to the extent such severance amounts are payable in the same form and in the same calendar year in which such cash severance payments under this Agreement are to be made.

(f)    Statutory Severance. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if (i) Executive resides outside of the United States and is entitled to receive severance or similar benefits (“Statutory Severance”) under the laws of Executive’s country of residence and (ii) Executive incurs a Qualifying Termination of Employment during the Term and becomes entitled to the payments and benefits provided in Sections 3(a) and 3(b) hereof, then such Executive will be entitled to receive either (i) the Statutory Severance or (ii) the payments and benefits described in Sections 3(a) and 3(b), whichever is greater.

(i)    Payments pursuant to this Agreement are intended to comply with or be exempt from Code Section 409A and accompanying Department of Treasury

regulations and other interpretive guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) and, to the extent applicable, the provisions of this Agreement will be administered, interpreted and construed accordingly. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Company determines that any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement may be or become subject to Section 409A, the Company may unilaterally adopt such amendments to this Agreement and/or to adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A, including without limitation, actions intended to (i) exempt the compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement from Section 409A, and/or (ii) comply with the requirements of Section 409A; provided, however, that this Section 3(g) shall not create an obligation on the part of the Company to adopt any such amendment, policy or procedure or take any such other action, nor shall the Company have any liability for failing to do so.

(ii)    Executive shall have no right to specify the calendar year during which any payment hereunder shall be made. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) such that any reimbursements or in-kind benefits will be deemed payable at a specified time or on a fixed schedule relative to a permissible payment event. Specifically, (A) the amounts reimbursed and in-kind benefits under this Agreement during Executive’s taxable year may not affect the amounts reimbursed or in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year, (B) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred, and (C) the right to reimbursement or an in-kind benefit is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(iii)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company and Executive agree that no benefit or benefits under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any severance payments or benefits payable under Section 3 hereof, shall be paid to Executive during the six (6)-month period following the Separation Date if paying such amounts at the time or times indicated in this Agreement would constitute a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code. If the payment of any such amounts is delayed as a result of the previous sentence, then on the first (1st) business day next following the earlier of (i) the date that is six (6) months and one day following the date of Executive’s termination of employment, (ii) the date of Executive’s death or (iii) such earlier date as complies with the requirements of Section 409A, the Company shall pay Executive a lump-sum amount equal to the cumulative amount that would have otherwise been payable to Executive during such period (without interest).

4. Limitation on Payments.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any payment or distribution received or to be received by Executive (including any payment or benefit

received in connection with a termination of Executive’s employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement) (all such payments and benefits, including the payments and benefits under Section 3 of this Agreement, the “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or part) to the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”), then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of Code Section 280G in such other plan, arrangement or agreement, Executive’s remaining Total Payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax, but only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes applicable to such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which Executive would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments). The reduction undertaken pursuant to this Section 4 shall be accomplished first by reducing or eliminating any cash payments subject to Section 409A as deferred compensation (with payments to be made furthest in the future being reduced first), then by reducing or eliminating cash payments that are not subject to Section 409A, then by reducing payments attributable to equity-based compensation (or the accelerated vesting thereof) subject to Section 409A as deferred compensation (with payments to be made furthest in the future being reduced first), and finally by reducing payments attributable to equity-based compensation (or the accelerated vesting thereof) that is not subject to Section 409A.

(b)    For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Total Payments, the receipt or retention of which Executive has waived at such time and in such manner so as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b), will be taken into account; (ii) no portion of the Total Payments will be taken into account which, in the written opinion of an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm (the “Independent Advisors”) selected by the Company, does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(2) (including by reason of Code Section 280G(b)(4)(A)) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payments will be taken into account which, in the opinion of Independent Advisors, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(4)(B), in excess of the “base amount” (as defined in Code Section 280G(b)(3)) allocable to such reasonable compensation; and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by the Independent Advisors in accordance with the principles of Code Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4).

5. Restrictions and Obligations of Executive.

(a)    Consideration for Restrictions and Covenants. The Company and Executive agree that the principal consideration for the Company’s agreement to make the payments provided in this Agreement to Executive is Executive’s compliance with the undertakings set forth in this Section 5. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Executive agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section 5 only if Executive actually receives any such payments from the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)    Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges that the Company will provide Executive with Confidential Information and has previously provided Executive with Confidential Information. In return for consideration provided under this Agreement, Executive agrees that Executive will not, while employed by the Company or any affiliate and thereafter, disclose or make available to any other person or entity, or use for Executive’s own personal gain, any Confidential Information, except for such disclosures as required in the performance of Executive’s duties with the Company or as may otherwise be required by law or legal process (in which case Executive shall notify the Company of such legal or judicial proceeding as soon as practicable following Executive’s receipt of notice of such a proceeding, and permit the Company to seek to protect its interests and information). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall prohibit Executive from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or regulation, provided that Executive promptly notifies the Company of the required disclosure and uses reasonable efforts to afford the Company a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective order narrowing the scope of such disclosure and provided further, that Executive complies with any protective order imposed on such disclosure.

(c)    Non-Solicitation or Hire. During the term of Executive’s employment with the Company or any affiliate thereof and for a two (2)-year period following the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly (i) employ or seek to employ any person who is as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment, or was at any time within the six (6)-month period preceding the date of Executive’s termination of employment, an officer, general manager or director or equivalent or more senior level employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or otherwise solicit, encourage, cause or induce any such employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate such employee’s employment with the Company or such subsidiary for the employment of another company (including for this purpose the contracting with any person who was an independent contractor (excluding consultant) of the Company during such period) or (ii) take any action that would interfere with the relationship of the Company or its subsidiaries with their suppliers or customers without, in either case, the prior written consent of the Board, or engage in any other action or business that would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

(d)    Non-Competition. During the term of Executive’s employment with the Company, or any affiliate thereof and for a two (2)-year period following the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly:

(i)    engage in any managerial, administrative, advisory, consulting, operational or sales activities in a Restricted Business anywhere in the Restricted Area, including, without limitation, as a director or partner of such Restricted Business, or

(ii)    organize, establish, operate, own, manage, control or have a direct or indirect investment or ownership interest in a Restricted Business or in any corporation, partnership (limited or general), limited liability company, enterprise or other business entity that engages in a Restricted Business anywhere in the Restricted Area.

Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall prohibit or otherwise restrict Executive from acquiring or owning, directly or indirectly, for passive investment purposes not intended to circumvent this Agreement, securities of any entity engaged, directly or indirectly, in a Restricted Business if either (i) such entity is a public entity and Executive (A) is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group that controls, such entity and (B) owns, directly or indirectly, no more than three percent (3%) of any class of equity securities of such entity or (ii) such entity is not a public entity and Executive (A) is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group that controls, such entity and (B) does not own, directly or indirectly, more than one percent (1%) of any class of equity securities of such entity.

(e)    Nondisparagement. Executive, acting alone or in concert with others, agrees that from and after the date on which Executive’s employment terminates, Executive will not publicly criticize or disparage the Company or its affiliates, or privately criticize or disparage the Company or its affiliates in a manner intended or reasonably calculated to result in public embarrassment to, or injury to the reputation of, the Company or its affiliates; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall apply to or restrict in any way the communication of information by Executive to any state or federal law enforcement or regulatory agency or any legislative or regulatory committee or require notice to the Company thereof.

(f)    Injunctive Relief. Executive acknowledges that monetary damages for any breach of Sections 5(b), (c), (d) or (e) above will not be an adequate remedy and that irreparable injury will result to the Company, its business and property, in the event of such a breach. For that reason, Executive agrees that in the event of a breach of Sections 5(b), (c), (d) or (e) above, in addition to recovering legal damages, the Company is entitled to proceed in equity for specific performance or to enjoin Executive from violating such provisions.

6.Return of Property. On or immediately following the date on which Executive’s employment terminates, Executive shall promptly return all Property which had been entrusted or made available to Executive by the Company; provided that if such Property is in electronic form on Executive’s personal computers Executive shall be deemed to comply with this Section 6 if

Executive, after obtaining the Company’s consent, deletes such Property from Executive’s personal computers.

7.Post-Separation Date Assistance. Following the date on which Executive’s employment terminates, Executive agrees that Executive will reasonably and appropriately respond to all inquiries from the Company relating to any current or future litigation of which Executive may have relevant information, and shall make himself or herself reasonably available to confer with the Company and otherwise provide testimony as the Company may deem necessary in connection with such litigation, subject in all cases to Executive’s other business and personal commitments. Such assistance shall be provided by Executive without remuneration, but the Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable expenses actually incurred or paid by Executive in complying with this Section 7 upon the presentation of expense statements or vouchers or such other supporting information as the Company may reasonably require of Executive.

8.Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)    Definitions Incorporated by Reference. Reference is made to Exhibit A hereto for definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement, and such definitions are incorporated herein by such reference with the same effect as if set forth herein.

(b)    No Other Mitigation or Offset; Legal Fees. The provisions of this Agreement are not intended to, nor shall they be construed to, require that Executive mitigate the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement by seeking or accepting other employment. Except as provided in Section 3(b), the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned or health benefits received by Executive as the result of employment outside of the Company.

(c)    Assignment; Binding Agreement. This Agreement and all of the Company’s rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by the Company without Executive’s prior written consent except as incident to a reorganization, merger or consolidation, or transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. Executive may not assign this Agreement or any of Executive’s rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding on, and inure to the benefit of, the Company and Executive and their respective successors and assigns.

(e)    Amendment; Waiver. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in a writing signed by Executive and by the Executive Chairman of the Board or an authorized officer of the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

(f)    Choice of Law; Validity. The interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas without regard to conflicts of laws principles. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, each of which shall remain in full force and effect.

(g)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(h)    Descriptive Headings. Descriptive headings are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

(i)    Corporate Approval. This Agreement has been approved by the Board, and has been duly executed and delivered by Executive and on behalf of the Company by its duly authorized representative.

(j)    Disputes. Subject to Section 5(f) and 8(k) hereof, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the obligations under this Agreement, shall be exclusively settled by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Employment Dispute Resolution Rules. The arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the parties, if possible. If the parties fail to reach agreement upon appointment of an arbitrator within thirty (30) days following receipt by one party of the other party’s notice of desire to arbitrate, the arbitrator shall be selected from a panel or panels submitted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). The selection process shall be that which is set forth in the AAA Employment Dispute Resolution Rules, except that, if the parties fail to select an arbitrator from one or more panels, AAA shall not

have the power to make an appointment but shall continue to submit additional panels until an arbitrator has been selected. The arbitration shall take place in Houston, Texas in the English language. Either party may appeal the arbitration award and judgment thereon and, in actions seeking to vacate an award, the standard of review to be applied to the arbitrator’s findings of fact and conclusions of law will be the same as that applied by an appellate court reviewing a decision of a trial court sitting without a jury. This agreement to arbitrate shall not preclude the parties from engaging in voluntary, non-binding settlement efforts including mediation. All fees and expenses of the arbitration, including a transcript if requested but not including the legal costs and fees incurred by any party to such arbitration, will be borne by the parties equally. Each party shall be responsible for its own legal costs and fees.

(k)    Venue. Any suit, action or other legal proceeding for specific performance or injunctive relief arising under Section 5(f) of this Agreement shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, or, if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in Harris County, Texas. Each of the Executive and the Company consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action, or proceeding and waives any objection that it may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding in any such court.

(l)    Withholding of Taxes. The Company and its affiliates may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement all taxes required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

(m)    No Effect on Employment. This Agreement is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on Executive’s part to continue in employment by the Company or any of its affiliates, or of the Company or any of its affiliates to continue Executive’s employment with the Company. Nothing in this Agreement modifies the nature of the employment relationship between the Company and its affiliates and Executive which continues to be an “at-will” relationship.

(n)    Clawback and Recoupment. All compensation and benefits payable to Executive by the Company and/or its affiliates (including any such amounts payable under this Agreement) will be subject to any clawback or recoupment requirements under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any clawback or recoupment policies that the Company and/or its affiliates may adopt from time to time.

(o)    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of Executive and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof, and hereby expressly terminates, rescinds and replaces in full any prior and contemporaneous promises, representations, understandings, arrangements and agreements between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral. However, the Severance Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, subject to any termination provisions contained therein, through the Date of Termination (and if there is a Qualifying Termination of Employment under the Severance Agreement that does not constitute a Qualifying Termination of

Employment for purposes of this Agreement, then the Severance Agreement shall apply in lieu of this Agreement (and this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect)). Nothing in this Agreement shall affect Executive’s rights under such compensation and benefit plans and programs of the Company in which Executive may participate, except as may be explicitly provided in this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement in multiple counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement, effective as of the Effective Date.

Definitions:

initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change of Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any payment (or portion thereof) that provides for the deferral of compensation that is subject to Section 409A, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Section 409A, the transaction or event described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) above with respect to such payment (or portion thereof) shall only constitute a Change of Control for purposes of the payment timing of such payment if such transaction also constitutes a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5).

Company or any of its affiliates or ventures, which information, data or knowledge has commercial value in the business in which the Company is engaged, except such information, data or knowledge as is or becomes known to the public without violation of the terms of this Agreement.

However, Good Reason shall not exist with respect to a matter unless Executive gives the Company a Notice of Termination by the ninetieth (90^th) day following the date of first occurrence of such event. If Executive fails to give such Notice of Termination timely, Executive shall be deemed to have waived all rights Executive may have under this Agreement with respect to such matter. The Company shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of such Notice of Termination to cure the matter. If the Company timely cures the matter, such Notice of Termination shall be deemed rescinded. If the Company fails to cure the matter timely, Executive’s employment shall terminate for Good Reason at the end of such thirty (30)-day period.

“Restricted Business” shall mean the operations, division, segment or subsidiary of such entity that is engaged in any Restricted Business.

In exchange for the consideration offered under the Change of Control Agreement between me and Exterran Corporation (the “Company”), dated as of [_______] (the “Agreement”), I hereby waive all of my claims and release the Company, any affiliate, subsidiary or venture of the Company, and any of their respective officers, directors, employees, partners, investors, counsel or agents, their benefit plans and the fiduciaries and agents of said plans (collectively referred to as the “Corporate Group”) from any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities and damages.

In exchange for the consideration offered to me by the Agreement, which I acknowledge provides consideration to which I would not otherwise be entitled, I agree not to sue or file any charges of discrimination, or any other action or proceeding with any local, state and/or federal agency or court regarding or relating in any way to the Company with respect to the claims released by me herein, and I knowingly and voluntarily waive all claims and release the Corporate Group from any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, and damages, whether known or unknown, arising out of or relating in any way to the Corporate Group, except with respect to rights under the Agreement, rights under employee benefit plans or programs other than those specifically addressed in the Agreement, and such rights or claims as may arise after the date this Waiver and Release is executed. This Waiver and Release includes, but is not limited to, claims and causes of action under: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990; the Civil Rights Act of 1866, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Energy Reorganization Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 5851; the Workers Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988; the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Fair Labor Standards Act; the Occupational Safety and Health Act; claims in connection with workers’ compensation or “whistle blower” statutes; and/or contract, tort, defamation, slander, wrongful termination or any other state or federal regulatory, statutory or common law. Further, I expressly represent that no promise or agreement which is not expressed in the Agreement or this Waiver and Release has been made to me in executing this Waiver and Release, and that I am relying on my own judgment in executing this Waiver and Release, and that I am not relying on any statement or representation of any member of the Corporate Group or any of their agents. I agree that this Waiver and Release is valid, fair, adequate and reasonable, is with

my full knowledge and consent, was not procured through fraud, duress or mistake and has not had the effect of misleading, misinforming or failing to inform me. I acknowledge and agree that the Company will withhold any taxes required by law from the amount payable to me under the Agreement and that such amount shall be reduced by any monies owed by me to the Company.

This Waiver and Release includes a release of claims of discrimination or retaliation on the basis of workers’ compensation status, but does not include workers’ compensation claims. Excluded from this Waiver and Release are any claims which by law cannot be waived in a private agreement between an employer and employee, including but not limited to claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act and the right to file a charge with or participate in an investigation conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) or any state or local fair employment practices agency. I waive, however, the right to any monetary recovery or other relief should the EEOC or any other agency pursue a claim on my behalf.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, I do not release and expressly retain (a) all rights to indemnity, contribution, advancement of expenses and a defense, and directors and officers and other liability coverage that I may have under any statute, the bylaws of the Company or any written agreement between me and the Company; and (b) the right to any unpaid reasonable business expenses and any accrued benefits payable under any Company welfare plan, tax-qualified plan or other Benefit Plans. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Benefit Plans” includes any outstanding equity awards under an equity incentive plan, any deferred compensation plan, any employee stock purchase plan and the 401(k) Plan (as defined in the Agreement).

Should any of the provisions set forth in this Waiver and Release be determined to be invalid by a court, agency or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, it is agreed that such determination shall not affect the enforceability of other provisions of this Waiver and Release.

I understand that for a period of seven (7) calendar days following my signing this Waiver and Release (the “Waiver Revocation Period”), I may revoke my acceptance of the offer by delivering a written statement to the Company by hand or by registered mail, addressed to the address for the Company specified in the Agreement, in which case the Waiver and Release will not become effective. In the event I revoke my acceptance of this offer, the Company shall have no obligation to provide me the consideration offered under the Agreement to which I would not otherwise have been entitled. I understand that failure to revoke my acceptance of the offer within the Waiver Revocation Period will result in this Waiver and Release becoming effective, permanent and irrevocable at the end of the Waiver Revocation Period.

I acknowledge that I have read this Waiver and Release, have had an opportunity to ask questions, have it explained to me and had the opportunity to seek independent legal advice with respect to the matters addressed in this Waiver and Release and that I understand that this Waiver and Release will have the effect of knowingly and voluntarily waiving any action I might pursue, including breach of contract, personal injury, retaliation, discrimination on the basis of race, age, sex, national origin or disability and any other claims arising prior to the date of this Waiver and Release, except for those claims specifically not released by me herein.

By execution of this document, I do not waive or release or otherwise relinquish any legal rights I may have which are attributable to or arise out of acts, omissions or events of the Company or any other member of the Corporate Group which occur after the date of execution of this Waiver and Release.
