Amendment to the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan

This Amendment (this “Amendment”) to the Bill Barrett Corporation 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (as may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”) is made as of February 7, 2018. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

WHEREAS, Section 15(c) of the Plan permits the Board to amend the Plan, subject, in the case of amendments requiring stockholder approval under the rules of any securities exchange on which the Shares may then be listed, to the approval by the Company’s stockholders of such amendment;

WHEREAS, the Board desires to amend the Plan to increase the number of Shares available for grant under the Plan and to incorporate certain other changes recommended to the Board by the Company’s advisors;

WHEREAS, this Amendment shall be submitted to the Company’s stockholders for approval, and shall become effective as of the date on which the Company’s stockholders approve such Amendment (the “Effective Date”);

WHEREAS, if the Company’s stockholders fail to approve this Amendment, the existing Plan shall continue in full force and effect;

WHEREAS, the Company has entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 4, 2017 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Fifth Creek Energy Operating Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Fifth Creek”), Red Rider Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Holdco”), and certain of their respective Affiliates, pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Fifth Creek and the Company shall become subsidiaries of Holdco (collectively, the “Transactions”); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Holdco shall assume the Plan and all award agreements thereunder, effective as of the consummation of the Transactions.

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to Section 15(c) of the Plan, the Plan is hereby amended as follows, effective as of the Effective Date:

(2)    Individuals who are Continuing Directors cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board; or

(a)    Maximum Shares Available. Subject to Section 4(b) and to adjustment as provided in Section 12(a), the number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan subsequent to the date on which the Amendment to the Plan, dated as of February 7, 2018 (the “Plan Amendment Adoption Date”), is approved by the Company’s stockholders (such approval date, the “Plan Amendment Effective Date”) shall be 6,500,000, less any Shares issued under the Plan on or after Plan Amendment Adoption Date and prior to the Plan Amendment Effective Date, and plus any Shares that again become available for grant pursuant to Section 4(b) on or after the Plan Amendment Adoption Date and prior to the Plan Amendment Effective Date. After the effective date of the Plan, no additional awards may be granted under the Prior Plans. Shares issued under the Plan shall come from authorized and unissued Shares or treasury Shares. In determining the number of Shares to be counted against this share reserve in connection with any Award, Substitute Awards shall not be counted against the share reserve, nor shall they reduce the Shares authorized for grant to a Participant in any calendar year.

(b)    Effect of Forfeitures and Other Actions; No Liberal Share Recycling. Any Shares subject to an Award, or to an award granted under a Prior Plan that is outstanding on the effective date of the Plan (a “Prior Plan Award”), that is forfeited or expires or is settled for cash shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration or cash settlement, again become available for Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, on or after the Plan Amendment Effective Date, the following Shares shall not become available for Awards again or increase the number of Shares available for grant under Section 4(a): (i) Shares tendered by the Participant or withheld by the Company in payment of the purchase price of a stock option issued under the Plan or a Prior Plan, (ii) Shares tendered by the Participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with respect to an Award or Prior Plan Award, (iii) Shares repurchased by the Company with proceeds received from the exercise of a stock option issued under the Plan or a Prior Plan, and (iv) Shares subject to a stock appreciation right issued under the Plan or a Prior Plan that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of that stock appreciation right upon its exercise.

(e)    ISO Limit. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12(a), the maximum number of Shares that may be granted pursuant to Options intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be equal to the number of Shares available for grant as of the Plan Amendment Effective Date, as set forth in Section 4(a).

(f)    Limits on Director Awards. The maximum number of Shares subject to Awards granted during a single calendar year to any Non-Employee Director, taken together with any cash fees paid during the year to the Non-Employee Director in respect of such individual’s service as a member of the Board during such year (including service as a member or chair of any committees of the Board), shall not exceed $500,000 in total value (calculating the value of any such Awards based on the grant date fair value of such Awards for financial reporting purposes). The independent members of the Board may make exceptions to this limit for a non-executive chair of the Board; provided that the Non-Employee Director receiving such additional compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation.

(g)    Limits on Individual Awards. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12(a), no Participant may be granted Awards (excluding Cash Incentive Awards) covering in excess of 1,500,000 Shares during any calendar year.

(b)    Term; Minimum Vesting Requirement. Each Agreement shall set forth the period until the applicable Award is scheduled to expire (which shall not be more than ten years from the Grant Date), such vesting conditions as are determined by the Committee, and any applicable performance period. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, equity-based Awards granted under the Plan shall vest no earlier than the first anniversary of the date the Award is granted (excluding, for this purpose, any Substitute Awards and Shares delivered in lieu of fully vested cash Awards); provided that, the Committee may grant equity-based Awards without regard to the foregoing minimum vesting requirement with respect to a maximum of five percent (5%) of the available Share reserve authorized for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 4(a) (subject to adjustment under Section 12(a)); and provided, further, that the foregoing restriction does not apply to the Committee’s

discretion to provide in the terms of the Award or otherwise for accelerated exercisability or vesting of any Award, including in cases of retirement, death, disability, or a Change in Control.

(h)    Treatment of Dividends and Dividend Equivalents on Unvested Awards. In no event shall dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions be paid with respect to Shares subject to an Option or SAR. Any dividends or distributions paid with respect to Shares that are subject to the unvested portion of a Restricted Stock Award will be subject to the same restrictions as the Shares to which such dividends or distributions relate. In its discretion, the Committee may provide in an Award Agreement for a Stock Unit Award or an Other Stock-Based Award that the Participant will be entitled to receive dividend equivalents on the units or other Share equivalents subject to the Award based on dividends actually declared on outstanding Shares. The terms of any dividend equivalents will be as set forth in the applicable Agreement, including the time and form of payment and whether such dividend equivalents will be credited with interest or deemed to be reinvested in additional units or Share equivalents. Dividend equivalents paid with respect to units or Share equivalents that are subject to the unvested portion of a Stock Unit Award or an Other Stock-Based Award will be subject to the same restrictions as the units or Share equivalents to which such dividend equivalents relate. The Committee may, in its discretion, provide in an Agreement for restrictions on dividends and dividend equivalents in addition to those specified in this Section 6(h). Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as a limitation on the applicability of Section 12(a) to a dividend or distribution that is governed by such Section.

(b)    Duration of the Plan. The Plan shall remain in effect until all Shares subject to it shall be distributed, all Awards have expired or terminated, the Plan is terminated pursuant to Section 15(c), or the tenth anniversary of the Plan Amendment Effective Date, whichever occurs first (the “Termination Date”). Awards made before the Termination Date will continue to be outstanding in accordance with their terms unless limited in the applicable Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company, by its duly authorized officer, has executed this Amendment to the Bill Barrett Corporation 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, as of the date first indicated above.
