(1)Ranger’s breach or violation of its obligations pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 16, 2017, by and among the Company and CSL, among others (subject to notice of such breach or violation by CSL to Ranger, which notice shall provide a 30-day cure period), it being acknowledged by CSL that there is currently no such breach or violation; or

In exchange for the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, Ranger agrees it shall reimburse CSL for any reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses incurred by CSL in connection with its negotiation and execution of this Lock-Up Agreement.

Each party further agrees that, prior to any making any public filings or disclosures relating to this Lock-Up Agreement, unless prohibited by law or otherwise impractical under the circumstances, it will provide reasonable, advance notice of such filings or disclosures, including any draft or proposed filings or disclosures, to the other party’s management for its review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The party making the public filing or disclosure agrees it shall incorporate any reasonable changes or additions to such draft filings or disclosures prior to publication or filing.

CSL further agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with Ranger’s transfer agent or any broker relating to transactions involving Ranger securities, and CSL agrees to exercise diligence and to fully cooperate with the placement and implementation of such stop transfer instructions.

CSL acknowledges and agrees that money damages might not be a sufficient remedy for any breach or threatened breach of this Lock-Up Agreement.

This Lock-Up Agreement may only be amended, modified, waived or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by Charles S. Leykum and Ranger.
