(ff) The Company and each of the Subsidiaries, considered together as one entity, maintain systems of “internal control over financial reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act and have been designed by, or under the supervision of, their respective principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including, but not limited to, internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

(hh) The Company has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

(ii) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries (i) are, and at all times prior hereto were, in compliance with all laws, regulations, ordinances, rules, orders, judgments, decrees, Permits or other legal requirements of any governmental authority, including without limitation any international, foreign, national, state, provincial, regional, or local authority, relating to pollution, the protection of occupational health or safety, the environment, or natural resources, or to use, handling, storage, manufacturing, transportation, treatment, discharge, disposal or release of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants (“Environmental Laws”) applicable to such entity, which compliance includes, without limitation, obtaining, maintaining and complying with all Permits and authorizations and approvals required by Environmental Laws to conduct their respective businesses, and (ii) have not received notice or otherwise have knowledge of any actual or alleged violation of Environmental Laws, or of any actual or potential liability for or other obligation concerning the presence, disposal or release of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants, except in the case of clause (i) or (ii) where such non-compliance, violation, liability, or other obligation would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as described in the most recent Preliminary Prospectus, (x) there are no proceedings that are pending, or known to be contemplated, against any of the Company or the Subsidiaries under Environmental Laws in which a governmental authority is also a party, other than such proceedings regarding which it is reasonably believed no monetary sanctions of $100,000 or more will be imposed, (y) the Company and its Subsidiaries are not aware of any issues regarding compliance with Environmental Laws, including any pending or proposed Environmental Laws, or liabilities or other obligations under Environmental Laws or concerning hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (z) none of the Company or its Subsidiaries anticipates material capital expenditures relating to Environmental Laws other than those incurred in the ordinary course of business.

(jj) In the ordinary course of its business, the Company periodically reviews the effect of Environmental Laws on the business, operations and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws, or any permit, license or approval, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such review, the Company has reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

(kk) None of the following events has occurred or exists: (i) a failure to fulfill the obligations, if any, under the minimum funding standards of Section 302 of the United States Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to a Plan, or Section 412 of the Code, determined without regard to any waiver of such obligations or extension of any amortization period, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (ii) an audit or investigation by the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Department of Labor, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or any other federal or state governmental agency or any foreign regulatory agency with respect to the employment or compensation of employees by any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (iii) any breach of any contractual obligation, or any violation of law or applicable qualification standards, with respect to the employment or compensation of employees by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, none of the following events has occurred or is reasonably likely to occur: (i) an increase in the aggregate amount of contributions required to be made to all Plans in the current fiscal year of the Company and its Subsidiaries compared to the amount of such contributions made in the most recently completed fiscal year of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (ii) an increase in the “accumulated post-retirement benefit obligations” (within the meaning of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 106) of the Company and its Subsidiaries compared to the amount of such obligations in the most recently completed fiscal year of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (iii) any event or condition giving rise to a liability under Title IV of ERISA; or (iv) the filing of a claim by one or more employees or former employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries related to their.

(f) The sale of Securities by such Selling Stockholder pursuant hereto is not prompted by any information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which is not set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(g) Such Selling Stockholder has no reason to believe that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Sections 1(i)(b) and 1(i)(c) are not true and correct in all material respects; and the sale of Securities by such Selling Stockholder pursuant hereto is not prompted by any information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which is not set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(h) In respect of any statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or any Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto used by the Company or any Underwriter, as the case may be, made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in

2. Purchase and Sale. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company and the Selling Stockholders agree, severally and not jointly, to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company and the Selling Stockholders, at a purchase price of $14.175 per share, the amount of the Underwritten Securities set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Schedule I hereto.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Selling Stockholders hereby grant an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to 4,739,900 Option Securities at the same purchase price per share as the Underwriters shall pay for the Underwritten Securities, less an amount per share equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and payable on the Underwritten Securities but not payable on the Option Securities. Said option may be exercised only to cover over-allotments in the sale of the Underwritten Securities by the Underwriters. Said option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on or before the 30th day after the date of the Prospectus upon written or electronic notice by the Representatives to the Company and such Selling Stockholders setting forth the number of shares of the Option Securities as to which the several Underwriters are exercising the option and the Settlement Date. The maximum number of Option Securities that each Selling Stockholder agrees to sell is set forth in Schedule II hereto. In the event that the Underwriters exercise less than their full option to purchase Option Securities, the number of Option Securities to be sold by each Selling Stockholder listed on Schedule II hereto shall be, as nearly as practicable, the number which bears the same ratio to the aggregate number of Option Securities as to which the Underwriters have exercised their option as the maximum number of Option Securities to be sold by such Selling Stockholder bears to the maximum number of Option Securities that may be purchased by the Underwriters, subject to such adjustments as you in your absolute discretion shall make to eliminate any fractional shares. The number of Option Securities to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be the same percentage of the total number of shares of the Option Securities to be purchased by the several

Underwriters as such Underwriter is purchasing of the Underwritten Securities, subject to such adjustments as you in your absolute discretion shall make to eliminate any fractional shares.

3. Delivery and Payment. Delivery of and payment for the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities (if the option provided for in Section 2(b) hereof shall have been exercised on or before the third Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date) shall be made at 10:00 AM, New York City time, on February 1, 2017, or at such time on such later date not more than three Business Days after the foregoing date as the Representatives shall designate, which date and time may be postponed by agreement among the Representatives, the Company and the Selling Stockholders or as provided in Section 9 hereof (such date and time of delivery and payment for the Securities being herein called the “Closing Date”).

Delivery of the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities shall be made through the facilities of DTC unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct.

Each Selling Stockholder will pay all applicable state transfer taxes, if any, involved in the transfer to the several Underwriters of the Securities to be purchased by them from such Selling Stockholder and the respective Underwriters will pay any additional stock transfer taxes involved in further transfers.

If the option provided for in Section 2(b) hereof is exercised after the third Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Representatives, the Selling Stockholders will deliver the Option Securities (at the expense of the Company) to the Representatives, at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York, on the date specified by the Representatives (which shall be within three Business Days after exercise of said option) for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters, against payment by the several Underwriters through the Representatives of the purchase prices thereof to or upon the order of the Selling Stockholders by wire transfer payable in same-day funds to accounts specified by the Selling Stockholders. If settlement for the Option Securities occurs after the Closing Date, the Company and such Selling Stockholders will deliver to the Representatives on the Settlement Date for the Option Securities, and the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase the Option Securities shall be conditioned upon receipt of, supplemental opinions, certificates and letters confirming as of such date the opinions, certificates and letters delivered on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 6 hereof.

(i) in their opinion the audited financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus and reported on by them comply as to form with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the Commission;

(ii) on the basis of a reading of the latest unaudited financial statements made available by the Company and its Subsidiaries; their limited review, in accordance with standards established under AU 722, of the unaudited interim financial information for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and as of September 30, 2016; carrying out certain specified procedures (but not an examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards) which would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with respect to the comments set forth in such letter; a reading of the minutes of the meetings of the stockholders, directors and committees of the Company and the Subsidiaries; and inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters of the Company and its

Subsidiaries as to transactions and events subsequent to September 30, 2016, nothing came to their attention which caused them to believe that:

(1) any unaudited financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus do not comply as to form with applicable accounting requirements of the Act and with the related rules and regulations adopted by the Commission with respect to registration statements on Form S-1; and said unaudited financial statements are not in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus;

(2) with respect to the period subsequent to September 30, 2016, there were, at a specified date not more than five days prior to the date of the letter, any change in capital stock, increase in long-term debt, or any decreases in consolidated net current assets or members’ equity of the Company as compared with amounts shown on the September 30, 2016, unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet included in the Registration Statement, or for the period from October 1, 2016 to such specified date there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in consolidated total revenues, net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share, except in all instances for changes or decreases set forth in such letter, in which case the letter shall be accompanied by an explanation by the Company as to the significance thereof unless said explanation is not deemed necessary by the Representatives;

(3) the information included in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus in response to Regulation S-K, Item 301 (Selected Financial Data), Item 302 (Supplementary Financial Information) and Item 402 (Executive Compensation) is not in conformity with the applicable disclosure requirements of Regulation S-K; and

(iii) they have performed certain other specified procedures as a result of which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to accounting, financial or statistical information derived from the general accounting records of the Company and its Subsidiaries) set forth in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, including the information set forth under the caption “Capitalization” in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, agrees with the accounting records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, excluding any questions of legal interpretation.

References to the Prospectus in this paragraph (f) include any supplement thereto at the date of the letter.

(g) The Underwriters shall have received on each of the dates hereof, any Settlement Date, a letter dated the date hereof or such Settlement Date, as applicable, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriters, of Ryder Scott.

(h) Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof) and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), there shall not have been (i) any change or decrease specified in the letter or letters referred to in paragraph (f) of this Section 6 or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, business or properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto) the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

(i) As of the Closing Date, all transactions described in the Preliminary Prospectus under the heading “Corporate Reorganization” shall have been completed in the manner described therein, and the Reorganization will be effective and valid in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

(j) The Company has no debt securities or preferred stock that is rated by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined by the Commission in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act).

(k) Subsequent to the Execution Time, there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) (A) trading in securities generally on any securities exchange that has registered with the Commission under Section 6 of the Exchange Act (including the NYSE, The NASDAQ Global Select Market, The NASDAQ Global Market or The NASDAQ Capital Market), or (B) trading in any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market, shall have been suspended or materially limited or the settlement of such trading generally shall have been materially disrupted or minimum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or such market by the Commission, by such exchange or by any other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction, (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or state authorities, (iii) the United States shall have become engaged in hostilities, there shall have been an escalation in hostilities involving the United States or there shall have been a declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States, or (iv) there shall have occurred such a material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions, including, without limitation, as a result of terrorist activities after the date hereof (or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such), as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or

delivery of the Securities being delivered on such Settlement Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

(l) The Securities shall have been listed and admitted and authorized for trading on the NYSE, and satisfactory evidence of such actions shall have been provided to the Representatives.

(m) At the Execution Time, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto from each Selling Stockholder and each of the individuals listed on Schedule V hereto.

(n) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company and each Selling Stockholder in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

The documents required to be delivered by this Section 6 shall be delivered at the office of Andrews Kurth Kenyon, LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, at 600 Travis Street, Suite 4200, Houston, Texas 77002 on the Closing Date.

7. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof (other than any such condition set forth in Section 6(j)(i)(A) or 6(j)(ii) through (iv) hereof) is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof (other than any such termination resulting from the occurrence of any of the events forth in Section 6(j)(i)(A) or 6(j)(ii) through (iv) hereof) or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company or any Selling Stockholders to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally through Citigroup Global Markets Inc. on demand for all expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state

statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with determining or investigating any such action or claim) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Securities, including any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433) not constituting an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (“Marketing Materials”) or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact (i) in the case of the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) in the case of any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any Marketing Materials, necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

(b) The Selling Stockholders, severally and not jointly, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with determining or investigating any such action or claim) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any Marketing Materials or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact (i) in the case of the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) in the

case of any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any Marketing Materials necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, but, in each case only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained or included therein in reliance upon and in conformity with the Selling Stockholder Information. The liability of each Selling Stockholder under the indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate net proceeds, after underwriting discounts but before deducting expenses received by such Selling Stockholder, from the sale of the Securities sold by such Selling Stockholder under this Agreement. The Company and the Selling Stockholders may agree, as among themselves and without limiting the rights of the Underwriters under this Agreement, as to the respective amounts of such liability for which they each shall be responsible.

9. Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each Selling Stockholder, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity to each Underwriter, but only with reference to Underwriter Information. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company and each Selling Stockholder acknowledges that the statements regarding delivery of shares by the Underwriters set forth on the cover page of, and the concession and reallowance figures and the statements relating to price stabilization, short positions and penalty bids by the Underwriters appearing under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus constitute the only Underwriter Information.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and each person, who controls Citigroup Global Markets Inc. within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act (“Citigroup Entities”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities to which they may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim), insofar as such losses, claims damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the prospectus wrapper material prepared by or with the consent of the Company for distribution in foreign jurisdictions in connection with the Directed Share Program attached to the Prospectus, any preliminary prospectus or any

Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein, when considered in conjunction with the Prospectus or any applicable preliminary prospectus, not misleading; (ii) caused by the failure of any Participant to pay for and accept delivery of the securities which immediately following the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, were subject to a properly confirmed agreement to purchase; or (iii) related to, arising out of, or in connection with the Directed Share Program, except that this clause (iii) shall not apply to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability is finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Citigroup Entities.

(b) Without limitation of and in addition to its obligations under the other paragraphs of this Section 8, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Independent Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents and each person who controls the Independent Underwriter within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon Independent Underwriter’s acting as a “qualified independent underwriter” (within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5121) in connection with the offering contemplated by this Agreement, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability is finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Independent Underwriter.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 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 this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel

chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(d) hereof 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 Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the directors, officers, employees and agents of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., and all persons, if any, who control Citigroup Global Markets Inc. within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act for the defense of any losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of the Directed Share Program.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company, one or more of the Selling Stockholders and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, by the Selling Stockholders and by the Underwriters from the offering of the Securities. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company, the Selling Stockholders and of the Underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and by the Selling Stockholders shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by each of them, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and

commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company and the Selling Stockholders on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company, the Selling Stockholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (f), in no event shall any Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such 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. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee, affiliate and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (f).

(e) The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to an indemnified party at law or in equity.

10. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Securities and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives, the Company and the Selling Stockholders for the purchase of such Securities by other persons are not made within

36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter, the Selling Stockholders or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company, the Selling Stockholders and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

11. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such delivery and payment any of the events described in Sections 6(h) and 6(j) shall have occurred and in the sole judgment of the Representatives, make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto) or if the Underwriters shall decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted by this Agreement.

12. Representations, Indemnities and Rights of Contribution to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities, rights of contribution and other statements of the Company or its officers, of each Selling Stockholder and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Independent Underwriter, any Selling Stockholder or the Company or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

13. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to the Citigroup Global Markets Inc. General Counsel (fax no.: (212) ###-###-####) and confirmed to the General Counsel, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York, 10013, Attention: General Counsel; Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, at Eleven Madison Ave., New York, New York 10010, Attention IBC Legal; and J.P.

11. The Registration Statement has been declared effective under the Act; to our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened by the Commission; and any required filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act has been made in the manner and within the time period required by such rule.

12. The statements set forth in the Prospectus under the headings “Business—Regulation of the Oil and Natural Gas Industry,” “Business—Regulation of Environmental and Occupational Safety and Health Matters,” “Description of Capital Stock,” “Shares Eligible for Future Sale” and “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for Non-U.S. Holders” and in the Registration Statement in Item 14, to the extent that they constitute descriptions or summaries of the terms of the Common Stock or the documents referred to therein, or refer to statements of federal law, the laws of the State of Delaware or legal conclusions, are accurate in all material respects.

The Company is not, and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and application of the net proceeds therefrom as described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption “Use of Proceeds,” will not be, required to register as an “investment company,” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

14. Each of the Registration Statement, as of the Effective Date, the Disclosure Package, as of the Execution Time, and the Prospectus, when filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) and at the Closing Date (in each case other than (i) the financial statements and related schedules, including the notes and schedules thereto and the auditor’s report thereon, (ii) the other financial data derived therefrom and (iii) oil and natural gas reserve data or reports, in each case included in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, as to which we express no opinion), appeared on its face to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Act.

We have participated in conferences with representatives of the Company and with representatives of its independent accountants and counsel for the Underwriters, at which conferences the contents of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and any amendment and supplement thereto and related matters were discussed. Although we have not undertaken to determine independently, and do not assume any responsibility for, or express opinion regarding (other than listed in paragraph 11 above), the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, based upon the participation described above (relying as to factual matters upon statements of fact made to us by representatives of the Company), nothing has come to our attention to cause us to believe that:

(a) the Registration Statement, as of the Effective Date, 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;

(b) the Disclosure Package and the price to the public, the number of Underwritten Securities and the number of Option Securities to be included on the cover page of the Prospectus, when taken together as a whole, as of the Execution 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

(c) the Prospectus, as of its date or as of the date hereof, 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 each case, such counsel need not express any belief with respect to (i) the financial statements and related schedules, including the notes and schedules thereto and the auditor’s report thereon, (ii) any other financial or accounting information; or (iii) any oil and natural gas reserve data or reports, or any information or estimates derived therefrom, in each case included in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

[Form of Opinion of Selling Stockholder Counsel]

EXHIBIT D

1. Each Selling Stockholder that is not a natural person is validly existing as an entity under the laws of its state of organization.

2. Upon (a) payment for the Securities to be sold by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the Agreement, (b) delivery of such Securities (within the meaning of Section 8-301 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”)), as directed by the Underwriters, to Cede & Co. (“Cede”) or such other nominee as may be designated by the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), (c) registration of such Securities in the name of DTC, Cede or such other nominee and (d) appropriate crediting (by book entry) of such Securities on the books of DTC to securities accounts (within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the UCC) of the Underwriters maintained by the Underwriters with DTC (assuming that neither DTC nor any such Underwriter has notice of any adverse claim within the meaning of Section 8-105 of the UCC to such Securities), (1) under Section 8-501 of the UCC, each Underwriter will acquire a valid security entitlement (within the meaning of Section 8-102 of the UCC) in respect of the Securities purchased by such Underwriter and (2) no action based on any “adverse claim” (within the meaning of Section 8-502 of the UCC), whether framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust, equitable lien or other theory, to such Securities may be asserted against such Underwriter, as the holder of such security entitlement with respect to such Securities. In giving this opinion, such counsel may assume that when such payment, delivery and crediting occur, (w) such Securities will have been registered in the name of Cede or another nominee designated by DTC, in each case on the Company’s share registry in accordance with its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws and applicable law, (x) DTC will be registered as a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of Section 8-102 of the UCC and the State of New York is the “securities intermediaries’ jurisdiction” of DTC for purposes of Section 8-110 of the UCC, (y) appropriate book entries to the accounts of the several Underwriters on the records of DTC will have been made pursuant to the UCC, and (z) no rule adopted by DTC (in its capacity as a clearing corporation) governing the rights and obligations among DTC and its participants conflicts (within the meaning of Section 8-111 of the UCC) with the provisions of Article 8 of the UCC that apply to any of the transactions described in this paragraph.

3. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or qualification with, any [federal, Texas or New York court or governmental agency or any Delaware court acting pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act] is required to be obtained or made by any Selling Stockholder for the sale of the Securities by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Agreement, except (i) as have been obtained and made, (ii) for the registration of the offering and sale of the Securities under the Act, (iii) for such consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, registrations or qualifications as may be required under applicable federal or state securities or blue sky laws and the approval by FINRA of the underwriting terms and arrangements in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Securities by the Underwriters, or (iv) for such consents that, if not obtained, have not or would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Selling Stockholder to consummate the sale of the Securities.

4. The execution and delivery of the Agreement by the Selling Stockholders do not, and the performance by the Selling Stockholders of their respective obligations under the Agreement, and the sale of the Securities by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the terms of the Agreement will not, (a) result in a breach or default (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such an event) under any agreement that is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, (b) violate the provisions of the charter or by-laws (or similar organizational documents) of a Selling Stockholder, if such Selling Stockholder is not a natural person, or (c) violate any [federal, New York or Texas statute, rule or regulation applicable to a Selling Stockholder, the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act], except, with respect to clauses (a) and (c), as would not, individually or in the aggregate, materially impair the ability of a Selling Stockholder to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Agreement in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities to be sold by such Selling Stockholder; with respect to clause (c) above, we express no opinion as to the application of any federal or state securities or blue sky laws or federal or state antifraud laws, rules or regulations.

5. Each of the Agreement and the Custody Agreement have been duly executed and delivered by each Selling Stockholder. The Custody Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of each Selling Stockholder, enforceable against each Selling Stockholder in accordance with its terms.

6. Each Selling Stockholder that is not a natural person has full [corporate, limited liability company or partnership] power and authority to enter into the Custody Agreement.
