THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of September 2, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Charles C. Ward (“Executive”) and Evolve Transition Infrastructure GP LLC (formerly known as Sanchez Midstream Partners GP LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) and the general partner of Evolve Transition Infrastructure LP (formerly known as Sanchez Midstream Partners LP), a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership,” and together with the Company, the “Partnership Parties”). Executive and the Company are collectively referred to herein as the “Parties,” and individually as a “Party.”

WHEREAS, the Parties previously entered into that certain employment agreement dated August 2, 2019, under which the Company has employed Executive as its Chief Financial Officer and Secretary and Executive has provided services for and on behalf of the Partnership Parties (the “Prior Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend and restate the Prior Agreement and Executive is willing to accept his continued employment as the Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company under the terms and conditions set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, mutually agree as follows:

1.Term: Executive agrees to continue to provide services for the Partnership Parties and the Company agrees to continue to engage Executive to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and continuing until Executive’s services are terminated by either Executive or the Company, as applicable, in accordance with Section 4 below (the “Term”).

2.Place of Services: Executive will perform his duties under this Agreement at the Partnership Parties’ offices in Houston, Texas.

3.Compensation: During the Term of this Agreement, the Company agrees as follows:

(a)Base Salary: For periods on and after the Effective Date, Executive’s annual base salary is $500,000, subject to applicable withholdings and deductions (“Base Salary”). Executive’s Base Salary may not be decreased during the Term of this Agreement by the Company, but may be increased in the absolute discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), or, if applicable, an authorized committee thereof, in accordance with the rules and procedures governing the Board. To the extent Executive’s Base Salary is increased during the Term, such increased rate shall thereafter be considered Executive’s “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement.

(b)Annual Bonus: In addition to Executive’s Base Salary, during the Term Executive shall continue to receive an annual cash bonus for services rendered by Executive to the Partnership Parties (the “Annual Bonus”). The Annual Bonus shall be payable to Executive no later than March 30 of the year following the year for which such Annual Bonus relates.

(i)2022 and 2023. The Annual Bonus for the 2022 and 2023 calendar years shall be equal to an amount between one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) (the “Low Annual Bonus”) and two-hundred percent (200%) of Executive’s Base Salary (the “High Annual Bonus”), subject to applicable withholdings and deductions. Executive’s Annual Bonus for the 2022 calendar year shall be determined in a manner and utilizing a qualitative assessment of financial and individual performance achievements consistent with

the determination of Executive’s Annual Bonus in prior years that preceded the Effective Date. Executive’s Annual Bonus for the 2023 calendar year shall be equal to the High Annual Bonus; provided, that, if a Change in Control occurs prior to the payment of the Annual Bonus for the applicable year, such Annual Bonus shall be equal to the Low Annual Bonus. For purposes of this subparagraph (i), the Annual Bonus (i.e., the percentage or range of percentages of Base Salary used to establish Executive’s bonus or target bonus hereunder) may not be decreased by the Company with respect to the 2022 or 2023 calendar years, but may be increased in the absolute discretion of the Board, or, if applicable, an authorized committee thereof, in accordance with the rules and procedures governing the Board. To the extent Executive’s Annual Bonus (i.e., the percentage or range of percentages of Base Salary used to establish Executive’s bonus or target bonus hereunder) is increased with respect to the 2022 or 2023 calendar years, such increased rate shall thereafter be considered Executive’s “Annual Bonus” for purposes of this subparagraph (i).

(ii)2024, Etc. For the 2024 calendar year (and thereafter), the target amount of the Annual Bonus shall be equal to a percentage or range of percentages of Executive’s Base Salary, as determined by the Board, in its sole discretion, subject to applicable withholdings and deductions. For the 2024 calendar year (and thereafter), Executive’s Annual Bonus shall be determined in a manner and utilizing a qualitative assessment of financial and individual performance achievements consistent with the determination of Executive’s Annual Bonus in prior years that preceded the Effective Date.

(c)Long-Term Incentive Compensation Awards: Executive shall be eligible to receive awards under the Sanchez Production Partners LP Long-Term Incentive Plan or any successor thereto (the “Plan”) and to participate in any long-term incentive programs available generally to the Company’s executive officers in the future, both as determined in the sole discretion of the Board, or, if applicable, a committee thereof.

(d)Additional Bonus. If, as of the date that an award under the Plan (or other applicable long-term incentive program of the Company) as described in Section 3(c) above would otherwise be granted, (i) either (1) the common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“Common Units”) are no longer publicly traded on (A) any exchange registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under Section 6(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (or any successor to such Section), or (B) any other securities exchange (whether or not registered with the SEC under Section 6(a) (or any successor to such Section) of the Exchange Act) that the Company shall designate as a “National Securities Exchange” for purposes of the Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, as amended (the “Partnership Agreement”) or the Partnership has otherwise been delisted, (2) the Board has made a public announcement that the Partnership will no longer make cash distributions on the Common Units, or (3) the Board has made a formal determination in writing that no cash distributions will be made on the Common Units for the first quarter of the applicable calendar year, and (ii) as a result of the event(s) described in clause (i), the Board (or the applicable committee) in its discretion elects not to grant any award to the Executive under the Plan (or other applicable long-term incentive program) pursuant to paragraph (c) above, then the Executive will be entitled to an additional cash bonus award, in an amount to be determined by the Board in its discretion and which shall be paid to the Executive at the same time the Annual Bonus is paid (each such additional cash bonus award, an “Additional Bonus”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no bonus shall be paid in substitution for compensation subject to (and not exempt from) Section 409A of the of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), to the extent such payment would result in the imposition of additional tax, interest and/or penalties upon Executive under Section 409A of the Code.

6.Section 409A of the Code:

(a)This Agreement is intended to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and will be interpreted accordingly. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any references under this Agreement to the termination of Executive’s employment hereunder, or “Termination Date” shall be deemed to refer to the date upon which Executive has experienced a Separation from Service. It is the intent of the Parties that all compensation and benefits payable or provided to Executive (whether under this Agreement or otherwise) shall fully comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Accordingly, the Company agrees that it will not, without Executive’s prior written consent, take any action inconsistent with this Agreement that would result in the imposition of tax, interest and/or penalties upon Executive under Section 409A of the Code.

(b)Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or elsewhere to the contrary, if upon a termination of employment Executive is deemed to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time, or if none, the default methodology under Section 409A of the Code, any payments or benefits due upon a termination of Executive’s employment under any arrangement that constitutes a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be delayed and paid or provided (or commence, in the case of installments) on the first payroll date on or following the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s termination of employment for any reason other than death (the “Delayed Payment Date”), and (ii) the date of Executive’s death, and any remaining payments and benefits shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for such payment or benefit; provided, that, payments or benefits that qualify as a short-term deferral (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and Final Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)) or involuntary separation pay (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and Final Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)) and are otherwise permissible under Section 409A of the Code and the Final Treasury Regulations, shall not be subject to such six-month delay. On the Delayed Payment Date, the Company will pay to Executive a lump sum amount equal to all amounts that would have been paid during the period of the delay if the delay were not required plus interest on such amount at a rate equal to the short-term applicable federal rate then in effect. Additionally, to the extent that Executive’s receipt of any in-kind benefits from the Company or its Affiliates must be delayed pursuant to this Section 6(b), Executive may elect to instead purchase and receive such benefits during the period in which the provision of benefits would otherwise be delayed by paying the Company or its Affiliates, as applicable, for the fair market value of such benefits (as determined by the Company in good faith) during such period. Any amounts paid by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be reimbursed to Executive (with interest thereon) as described above on the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s Separation From Service.

(c)Each payment made under this Agreement shall be designated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

(d)To the extent that any payment hereunder is subject to Section 409A of the Code and may be payable in one of two calendar years, payment shall be made in the later year.

(e)In the event that either Executive or the Company’s senior management becomes aware that any provision of this Agreement violates Section 409A of the Code, the Parties will meet and confer regarding such issues and will engage in good faith discussions regarding whether and how the Agreement can be modified so as to minimize the likelihood of a Section 409A violation while providing Executive with financial terms substantially commensurate to those set forth in this Agreement.

(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Partnership make no representations or warranties and will have no liability to Executive or any other person if any provisions of or payments under this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but not to satisfy the conditions of Section 409A of the Code.

7.Tax Withholding: The Company may withhold from any payments or benefits referenced under this Agreement, and payable from the Company to Executive, all federal, state, city or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling, and any deductions authorized by Executive.

8.Entire Agreement: This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Executive and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior agreements, understandings, discussions, negotiations, and/or undertakings, whether written or oral. Executive specifically agrees that Executive is not relying on any representations, promises, understandings, discussions, negotiations, or undertakings, whether written or oral, express or implied, other than those contained in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement supersedes or affects the validity of any indemnification agreement, long term incentive plan, or equity, severance, bonus or other similar agreement between Executive and the Company, or any of its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, or related companies, or any of their successors, which shall remain in effect in accordance with their terms.

9.Governing Law: This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws.

10.Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions: If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable as a matter of governing law, a reviewing shall have the authority to “blue pencil” or otherwise modify such provision so as to render it enforceable while maintaining the Parties’ original intent (as reflected herein) to the maximum extent possible. This Agreement shall be severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof.

(b)Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder shall be assignable or transferable by Executive, or by Executive’s beneficiaries or legal representatives, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s legal personal representative.

12.No Waiver: No failure on the part of any Party at any time to require the performance by any other Party of any term of this Agreement shall be taken or held to be a waiver of such term or in any way affect such Party’s right to enforce such term, and no waiver on the part of any Party of any term of this Agreement shall be taken or held to be a waiver of any other term hereof or the breach hereof.
