Ladies and Gentlemen:

Apergy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the several initial purchasers listed in Schedule 1 hereto (the “Initial Purchasers”), for whom you are acting as representative (the “Representative”), $300,000,000 principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture to be dated as of May 3, 2018 (the “Initial Indenture”), between the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). On and after the Spin-off Date (as defined below), the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally (the “Guarantees”), by (i) the guarantors listed in Schedule 2 hereto and (ii) any subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired after the Closing Date (as defined below) that executes an additional guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture (as defined below), and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The Notes and the Guarantees are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”

The Company and the Guarantors hereby confirm their agreement with the several Initial Purchasers concerning the purchase and resale of the Securities, as follows:

1. Offering Memorandum and Transaction Information.

The Securities will be sold to the Initial Purchasers without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon an exemption therefrom. The Company and the Guarantors have prepared a preliminary offering memorandum dated April 16, 2018 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”) and will prepare an offering memorandum dated the date hereof (the “Offering Memorandum”) setting forth information concerning the Company, the Guarantors and the Securities. Copies of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum have been, and copies of the Offering Memorandum will be, delivered by the Company to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to the terms of this purchase agreement (the “Agreement”). The Company hereby confirms that it has authorized the use of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the other Time of Sale Information (as defined below) and the Offering Memorandum in connection with the offering and resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers in the manner contemplated by this Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.

At or prior to the time when sales of the Securities were first made (the “Time of Sale”), the Company had prepared the following information (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”): the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, as supplemented and amended by the written communications listed on Annex A hereto.

Prior to the Spin-off Date (as defined below), Dover Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Dover”), will own the Company and equity interests in certain entities that hold certain assets and liabilities conducting Dover’s upstream oil and gas business within Dover’s Energy segment. In connection with the Spin-off (as defined below), the equity interests of the entities that hold certain assets and liabilities conducting Dover’s upstream oil and gas business within its Energy segment will be transferred to the Company and other assets and liabilities will be assigned to or assumed by the Company. After the Spin-off Date, the Company will be a stand-alone, publicly traded company. The Securities are being issued as part of the financing related to the pro rata distribution (the “Spin-off”) of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock to the stockholders of Dover as contemplated by a separation and distribution agreement (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”) between Dover and the Company to be entered into prior to the effectiveness of the Spin-off (the date of such effectiveness, the “Spin-off Date”). In connection with the Spin-off, the Company expects to enter into the Separation and Distribution Agreement, a tax matters agreement by and between Dover and the Company, a transition services agreement by and between Dover and the Company and an employee matters agreement by and between Dover and the Company (collectively, the “Spin-off Documents”). In connection with the Spin-off, the Company and the Guarantors intend to enter into a $250.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a $415.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Credit Facilities”) pursuant to a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the Guarantors, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other financial institutions party thereto. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering of the Securities, together with borrowings under the Term Loan Facility, to fund a special cash payment (the “Cash Payment”) of approximately $700.0 million to Dover and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions (as defined below).

On the Closing Date, the Company will (i) issue the Notes and (ii) if the Spin-off Date will occur after the Closing Date, enter into a customary escrow and security agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) as contemplated by the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as escrow agent and, as applicable, bank (the “Escrow Agent”), and the Trustee. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, if applicable, on the Closing Date the Company will deposit into an account pledged to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Securities (the “Escrow Account”) the proceeds of the offering of the Notes, together with an additional amount, in cash (collectively with any other property from time to time held in the Escrow Account by the Escrow Agent, the “Escrowed Funds”) that would be sufficient to redeem the Notes at a redemption price equal to the Mandatory Redemption Price (as defined below).

In the event that upon the earliest of any of the following to occur: (A) the Spin-off is not consummated on or prior to 5:00PM New York City time on May 31, 2018 (the “Escrow Outside Date”), (B) the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the Release Conditions (as defined in the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum) cannot be satisfied by the Escrow Outside Date or (C) the Board of Directors of Dover determines, in its sole discretion, that the Spin-off is not in the best interests of Dover or its shareholders, that a sale or other alternative is in the best interests of Dover or its shareholders, or that market conditions or other circumstances are such that it is not advisable at that time to separate certain assets and liabilities conducting its upstream oil and gas business within its Energy segment from Dover (any such event being a “Special Mandatory Termination Date”), the Company will redeem all of the Notes in accordance with the special mandatory redemption provisions contained in the Indenture (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (“Mandatory Redemption Price”). Written notice of the occurrence of a Special Mandatory Termination Date will be sent by an authorized representative of the Company (a “Special Redemption Notice”) within three Business Days following the occurrence of a Special Mandatory Termination Date to the Trustee and the Escrow Agent. The Special Redemption Notice will specify the date fixed for such Special Mandatory Redemption (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”), which date may not be any later than five Business Days from the date of such Special Redemption Notice.

The Escrow Agreement shall provide that the Escrowed Funds shall only be released pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. If the Escrow Conditions are satisfied on or prior to the Escrow Outside Date and the Escrow Agent receives the written instructions described in the Escrow Agreement and certifying that the Release Conditions have been met, the Escrow Agent shall release the Escrowed Funds in accordance with the Escrow

Agreement (such release, the “Escrow Release”; the date of the Escrow Release, the “Escrow Release Date”). Upon execution of the Escrow Agreement, the establishment of the Escrow Account, the issuance of the Notes and the deposit of the Escrowed Funds in the Escrow Account by the Company, the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Notes will be secured by a first-priority perfected lien, which will not be subject to any other lien, charge or encumbrance except as permitted by the Escrow Agreement, on the Company’s right, title and interest in the Escrow Account, the Escrowed Funds and all proceeds of any of the foregoing (the “Collateral”), granted in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Notes pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Spin-off Date occurs on the Closing Date, the Company may elect to forego the escrow procedures described in this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum in their entirety, in which case there will be no Escrow Agreement or Escrow Account, and the occurrence of such event shall not be deemed to be a waiver of, or amendment to, any term or condition in this Agreement.

On or prior to the Spin-off Date, (i) each of the Guarantors shall execute and deliver a joinder agreement to this Agreement in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Joinder Agreement”), pursuant to which each of the Guarantors will become a party hereto and (ii) each of the Guarantors shall enter into a supplemental indenture (and any related instrument) with the Trustee pursuant to which each of the Guarantors will assume all of the obligations of a Guarantor under the Initial Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”). As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Indenture” shall mean the Initial Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture.

The issuance of the Securities, the Spin-off, the Cash Distribution, the entry into the Transaction Documents (as defined below) and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby and by the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum are collectively referred to herein as the “Transactions.” References herein to “the Company and its subsidiaries,” “the Company and the Guarantors” or other similar references are to such entities after giving pro forma effect to the Transactions.

Holders of the Securities (including the Initial Purchasers and their direct and indirect transferees) will be entitled to the benefits of a Registration Rights Agreement, to be dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will agree to file one or more registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) providing for the registration under the Securities Act of the Securities or the Exchange Securities referred to (and as defined) in the Registration Rights Agreement and the related Guarantees (when issued). On the Spin-off Date, each Guarantor will join the Registration Rights Agreement by executing a joinder in the form attached thereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement Joinder”). As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Registration Rights Agreement” shall mean the Registration Rights Agreement, as amended by the Registration Rights Agreement Joinder.

2. Purchase and Resale of the Securities.

(B) in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Annex C hereto.

(c) Each Initial Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company and the Guarantors and, for purposes of the “no registration” opinions to be delivered to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Sections 6(f) and 6(h), counsel for the Company and counsel for the Initial Purchasers, respectively, may rely upon the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Initial Purchasers, and compliance by the Initial Purchasers with their agreements, contained in paragraph (b) above (including Annex C hereto), and each Initial Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.

The Company and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, any of the other Time of Sale Information, any Issuer Written Communication or the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use therein it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Initial Purchaser consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

(b) Indemnification of the Company and the Guarantors. Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the Guarantors, each of their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any of the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, any of the other Time of Sale Information, any Issuer Written Communication or the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the following provisions in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum furnished by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers: the fourth sentence of the seventh paragraph, the eight paragraph and the eleventh paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution.”

(c)

Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable

for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Initial Purchaser shall be designated in writing by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities LLC and any such separate firm for the Company, the Guarantors, their respective directors and officers and any control persons of the Company and the Guarantors shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request, (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement as soon as reasonably practicable under the terms of such settlement and in any event at least 5 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) or (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company from the sale of the Securities and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers in connection therewith, as provided in this Agreement, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or any Guarantor or by the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) Limitation on Liability. The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall an Initial Purchaser be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

(f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

8. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above.

9. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and on or prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on the New York Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company or any of the Guarantors shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum.

10. Defaulting Initial Purchaser.

(a) If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser defaults on its obligation to purchase the Securities that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Initial Purchaser, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase such Securities on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser, either the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or the Company may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Initial Purchasers may be necessary in the Time of Sale Information, the Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Time of Sale Information or the Offering Memorandum that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this Section 10, purchases Securities that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased on the Closing Date does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities to be purchased on such date, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Securities that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder on such date plus such Initial Purchaser’s pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers for which such arrangements have not been made.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased on the Closing Date exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities to be purchased on such date, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of the Company or the Guarantors, except that the Company and each of the Guarantors will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 11 hereof and except that the provisions of Section 7 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Company, the Guarantors or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages caused by its default.

11. Payment of Expenses.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of their respective obligations hereunder, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Securities and any transfer or similar taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation and printing of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, any other Time of Sale Information, any Issuer Written Communication and the Offering Memorandum (including any amendment or supplement thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the costs of reproducing and distributing each of the Transaction Documents; (iv) the fees and expenses of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ counsel and independent accountants; (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration or qualification and determination of eligibility for investment of the Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representative may designate and the preparation, printing and distribution of a Blue Sky Memorandum (including the related reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Initial Purchasers); (vi) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Securities; (vii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Escrow Agent and any paying agent (including related reasonable and documented fees and expenses of any counsel to such parties); (viii) all expenses and application fees incurred in connection with the approval of the Securities for book-entry transfer by DTC; (ix) all expenses incurred by the Company and the Guarantors in connection with any “road show” presentation to potential investors, including, without limitation, the travel and lodging expenses of the representatives and officers of the Company, the Guarantors and any consultants (it being understood that the Initial Purchasers, collectively, shall bear one-half of the costs associated with any aircraft chartered in connection with the “road show”) and (x) the fees and expenses attributable to creating and perfecting the security interest in the Escrowed Funds as contemplated by the Escrow Agreement (including the reasonable related fees and expenses of counsel for the Initial Purchasers). Except as provided in this Section 11(a), the Initial Purchasers shall pay all of their costs and expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel.

(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9, (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Securities for delivery to the Initial Purchasers or (iii) the Initial Purchasers decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to reimburse the Initial Purchasers for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby.

12. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to herein, and the affiliates of each Initial Purchaser referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Securities from any Initial Purchaser shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

13. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company, the Guarantors or the Initial Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Securities and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, the Guarantors or the Initial Purchasers.

14. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City; (c) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (d) the term “Exchange Act” collectively means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; and (e) the term “written communication” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

As Representative of the several Initial Purchasers

Re: Apergy Corporation

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Apergy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with (i) the Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 19, 2018 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Company and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities LLC, as representative of the initial purchasers (the “Initial Purchasers”) named in Schedule 1 to the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the sale by the Company, and the purchase by the Initial Purchasers, severally, of $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Notes are to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of May 3, 2018 (the “Indenture”) by and between the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). In connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Company and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities LLC, for itself and on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, have entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2018 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Also in connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), are entering into an escrow agreement, dated as of May 3, 2018 (the “Escrow Agreement”). We are delivering this letter to you at the request of the Company pursuant to Section 6(f) of the Purchase Agreement.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Company has prepared (i) a preliminary offering memorandum dated April 16, 2018 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), (ii) a pricing term sheet dated April 19, 2018 in the form attached as Annex B to the Purchase Agreement (the “Pricing Term Sheet”), and (iii) an Offering Memorandum dated April 19, 2018 in the form first provided to the Initial Purchasers for use in connection with the offering of the Notes (the “Offering Memorandum”).

Annex D-1-2

As used herein, the following terms have the meanings set forth below:

“Applicable Laws” means the DGCL and those state laws of the State of New York, and those federal laws of the United States of America which, in our experience and without independent investigation, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Purchase Agreement; provided, that the term “Applicable Laws” shall not include federal or state securities or blue sky laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “1939 Act”), or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)), antifraud laws, pension or employee benefit laws, or in each case, any rules or regulations thereunder or similar matters;

“DGCL” means the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended; and

“Exchange Notes” means the Company’s 6.375% Senior Notes due 2026 to be issued in exchange for the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the registered exchange offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Exchange Offer”).

As counsel to the Company, we have examined and relied upon originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such agreements, instruments, certificates, records and other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of rendering the opinions set forth in this letter. In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies or by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission or which we obtained from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“▇▇▇▇▇”) or other sites on the internet, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. If any document we examined in printed, word processed or similar form has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on ▇▇▇▇▇, we have assumed that the document filed on ▇▇▇▇▇ is identical to the document we examined, except for ▇▇▇▇▇ formatting changes. As to facts and certain other matters and the consequences thereof relevant to the opinions expressed herein and the other statements made herein, we have relied without independent investigation or verification upon, and assumed the accuracy and completeness of, (a) certificates, letters and oral and written statements and representations of public officials, officers and other representatives of the Company, accountants for the Company, and others and (b) the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement and the Escrow Agreement.

Based on and subject to the foregoing and the other limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

(i) The Company is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Disclosure Package (as defined below) and the Offering Memorandum and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Indenture, the Escrow Agreement and the Notes.

Annex D-1-3

(ii) The Purchase Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

(iii) The Notes have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company. When the Notes are duly authenticated by the Trustee, all in accordance with the Indenture, and delivered to and paid for by the Initial Purchasers in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Notes will be valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

(iv) The Exchange Notes have been duly authorized by the Company. When the Exchange Notes are duly executed by authorized officers of the Company and authenticated by the Trustee, all in accordance with the Indenture, and delivered in exchange for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes in accordance with the Exchange Offer, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Exchange Notes will be valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

(v) No consent, approval, authorization or other order of any federal regulatory body, federal administrative agency or other federal governmental body of the United States of America, any state regulatory body, state administrative agency or other state governmental body of the State of Delaware acting pursuant to the DGCL or any state regulatory body, state administrative agency or other state governmental body of the State of New York is required under Applicable Laws for the execution and delivery by the Company of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Escrow Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Notes to the Initial Purchasers as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

(vi) The execution and delivery by the Company of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and the issuance and sale of the Notes to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, do not (a) violate the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company, (b) result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the agreements or instruments listed on Schedule I hereto or (c) result in a violation by the Company of any of the terms and provisions of any Applicable Laws.

(vii) The statements in the Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum under the captions “Description of the Notes,” and “Exchange Offer; Registration Rights,” to the extent that such statements purport to describe certain provisions of the Indenture, the Escrow Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Notes, accurately describe such provisions in all material respects.

(viii) The statements in the Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum under the caption “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations,” to the extent that such statements purport to describe matters of United States federal income tax law and regulations, accurately describe such matters in all material respects.

Annex D-1-4

(ix) Each of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company. Each of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Indenture is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

(x) Assuming (A) the accuracy and performance of, and compliance with, the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Initial Purchasers set forth in the Purchase Agreement and (B) the accuracy and performance of, and compliance with, the representations, warranties and agreements of each of the persons to whom the Initial Purchasers initially offer, resell or otherwise transfer the Notes as set forth in the Offering Memorandum under the caption “Transfer Restrictions,” it is not necessary, in connection with the sale of the Notes to the Initial Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement or in connection with the initial resale of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers, in each case in the manner contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Offering Memorandum, to register the Notes under the 1933 Act or to qualify the Indenture under the 1939 Act, it being understood that we express no opinion as to any subsequent resale or other transfer of any Notes.

(xi) The Company is not, and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Notes and the application of the net proceeds thereof as described in the Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum under the caption “Use of Proceeds,” the Company will not, be required to be registered as an “investment company” as defined in the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇.

(xii) Assuming compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, the Company’s use of the net proceeds from the offering and sale of the Notes as described in the Disclosure Package and Offering Memorandum under the caption “Use of Proceeds” will not violate Regulation U or X promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as in effect on the date hereof.

(xiii) The provisions of the Escrow Agreement are effective to create in favor of the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, a security interest to secure the Obligations (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) in all of the Company’s right, title and interest in that portion of the Escrow Account (as defined in the Escrow Agreement), the Escrowed Funds (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) now or hereafter placed or deposited in the Escrow Account and the other Collateral (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) (all of such Collateral, collectively, other than any assets consisting of commercial tort claims, the “Article 9 Collateral”), in each case, in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York as in effect on the date hereof (the “NY-UCC”). The provisions of the Escrow Agreement are effective to give the Trustee “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the NY-UCC) over the Escrow Account (as defined in the Escrow Agreement).

Annex D-1-5

In acting as counsel to the Company in connection with the transactions described in the first paragraph above, we have participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent public accountants for the Company and your representatives, at which conferences certain contents of the Disclosure Package (as defined below) and the Offering Memorandum and related matters were discussed. Although we are not passing upon or assuming responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements included in or omitted from the Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum and have made no independent check or verification thereof (except as set forth in paragraphs (vii) and (viii) above), based upon our participation in such conferences, no facts have come to our attention that have caused us to believe that, insofar as is relevant to the offering of the Notes:

(1) the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Pricing Term Sheet, considered together (collectively, the “Disclosure Package”), as of 5:15 p.m. (New York City time) on April 19, 2018, 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

(2) the Offering Memorandum, as of the date of the Offering Memorandum or on 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 in each case that we express no belief and make no statement with respect to the historical or pro forma financial statements and schedules and other financial or accounting data included in or omitted from the Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum.

The foregoing opinions and other statements are subject to the following qualifications, exceptions, assumptions and limitations:

A. The foregoing opinions and other statements are limited to matters arising under the federal laws of the United States of America, the laws of the State of New York and the DGCL. We express no opinion and make no statement as to the laws, rules or regulations of any other jurisdiction or, in the case of Delaware, any other Delaware laws, rules or regulations, or as to the municipal laws or the laws, rules or regulations of any local agencies or governmental authorities of or within the State of New York, or in each case as to any matters arising thereunder or relating thereto.

B. In rendering our opinion set forth in the first sentence of paragraph (i) above, we have relied solely upon a certificate or certificates, as the case may be, of a governmental authority or official.

Annex D-1-6

deliver and perform its obligations under such Instrument, (ii) such Instrument has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each party thereto, and (iii) such Instrument was at all relevant times and is a valid, binding and enforceable agreement or obligation, as the case may be, of, each party thereto; provided that we make no such assumption insofar as any of the foregoing matters relates to the Company and is expressly covered by our opinion set forth in paragraph (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (ix) above.

D. We express no opinion in paragraph (vi)(b) above as to any breach of or default under any financial covenant, any provision requiring a mathematical, accounting or financial computation or determination or any cross default or cross acceleration provisions triggered by another instrument or agreement.

E. We express no opinion as to any provision of any instrument, agreement or other document (i) regarding severability of the provisions thereof; (ii) providing that the assertion or employment of any right or remedy shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy, or that every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy, or that any delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall not impair any right or remedy or constitute a waiver thereof; (iii) providing for an increase in an interest rate or the payment of additional interest upon the occurrence of certain defaults or the failure to perform certain obligations or imposing liquidated damages or penalties; (iv) regarding waiver of usury, stay, extension or similar laws; (v) regarding any obligation or agreement to use best efforts, reasonable best efforts or commercially reasonable efforts or any similar obligation or agreement; (vi) regarding choice of law; (vii) regarding specific performance or the grant of any power of attorney; or (viii) requiring any party to take further action or to enter into further agreements or instruments or to provide further assurances. In addition, we wish to advise you that rights to indemnity and contribution under the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or the Indenture may be limited by applicable law or public policy.

F. Our opinions are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, voidable transaction and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general equitable principles (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including concepts of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief.

G. Certain remedial provisions of the Instruments may be unenforceable in whole or in part, but the inclusion of such provisions does not affect the validity of the Instruments; however, the unenforceability of such provisions may result in delays in the enforcement of the Trustee’s rights and remedies under the Instruments (and we express no opinion as to the economic consequences, if any, of such delays).

H. In rendering our opinions set forth in paragraphs (xi) and (xii) above, we have relied as to all factual matters exclusively on the certificate, dated as of the date of this letter, of [•], the [•] of the Company, and have assumed that the certifications and representations as to such factual matters set forth therein were true and correct as of the dates set forth therein, are true and correct on the date hereof and will remain true and correct at all times through and including the date on which the Company shall have expended all of the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes.

Annex D-1-7

I. Except as provided in paragraph (xiii) above, we express no opinion on the creation or perfection of any security interest. We express no opinion on the priority of any security interest.

J. Our opinion in paragraph (xiii) above is subject to the following additional assumptions and qualifications:

(1) Such opinion is limited to Article 9 of the NY-UCC. Such opinion does not address (i) laws of jurisdictions other than the State of New York, (ii) laws of the State of New York except for those described above or (iii) what law governs attachment of the security interest granted to the Trustee in the Article 9 Collateral.

(2) Such opinion is limited to the creation and perfection of security interests in the Article 9 Collateral and such opinion does not address the creation or perfection of security interests in any other assets. We express no opinion as to the priority of any security interest in any assets (including the Article 9 Collateral).

(3) We have assumed that “value” (as such term is used in Section 9-203(b)(1) of the NY-UCC) has been given and that the Company has sufficient rights (as such term is used in Section 9-203(b)(2) of the NY-UCC) in the Article 9 Collateral of the Company for the security interest of the Trustee to attach thereto, and we express no opinion as to the nature or extent of the Company’s rights in, or title to, any of the Article 9 Collateral.

(4) To the extent that such opinion covers proceeds, such opinion is limited by Sections 9-315 and 9-322 of the NY-UCC.

(5) We note that Section 552 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”), limits the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code is subject to a security interest arising from a security agreement entered into by the debtor before such commencement.

(6) We call to your attention that the Convention on the Law Applicable to Certain Rights in Respect of Securities Held with an Intermediary, ratified September 28, 2016, S. Treaty Doc. No. 112-6 (2012) (“Hague Securities Convention”) became effective on April 1, 2017. The Hague Securities Convention affects the choice of law applicable to perfection and priority of security interests in any collateral consisting of securities, financial assets or securities accounts held with an intermediary, as such terms are used in the Hague Securities Convention. We express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of the choice-of-law rules of the Hague Securities Convention for matters governed by Article 2(1) thereof.

Annex D-1-8

(7) We have assumed that (i) the Escrow Agent is a “bank” (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(8) of the NY-UCC), (ii) the Escrow Agent’s jurisdiction for purposes of Section 9-304 of the NY-UCC is and will continue to be the State of New York, and (iii) the Escrow Account is a “deposit account” (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(29) of the NY-UUC) that has been established and will be maintained at the Escrow Agent in the name, bearing the account number and otherwise in the manner set forth in the Escrow Agreement.

(8) (i) We have relied on the representations of the Escrow Agent as to the absence of any other agreements establishing “control” over the Escrow Account, (ii) we note that the security interest of the Trustee in the Escrow Account will be subordinate to any security interest now or hereafter created therein in favor of the Escrow Agent and (iii) we express no opinion as to the impact of Section 4 of the Escrow Agreement on the Trustee’s control over the Escrow Account.

(9) We also call to your attention that, under the NY-UCC, actions taken by the Escrow Agent, including amending the Escrow Agreement in a manner which eliminates or shares the “control” of the Trustee over the Escrow Account subject thereto, may adversely affect the security interest of the Trustee.

J. Whenever a statement or opinion herein is qualified by “no facts have come to our attention” or a similar phrase, it means that the lawyers currently practicing law with this Firm who have been actively involved in representing the Company in connection with the transactions described in the first paragraph of this letter, after consultation with such other attorneys currently practicing law with this Firm as they considered appropriate, have no actual current awareness of the inaccuracy of any such statement or opinion, and no inference as to our knowledge or that we have any knowledge of any matters pertaining to such statement or opinion should be drawn from the fact that we have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

The opinions expressed and the statements made herein are expressed and made as of the time of closing of the sale of the Notes to the Initial Purchasers on the date hereof and we assume no obligation to advise you of changes in law, fact or other circumstances (or the effect thereof on such opinions or statements) that may come to our attention after such time.

This letter is rendered solely to and for the benefit of the Initial Purchasers in connection with the transaction described in the first paragraph above and may not be quoted to or relied upon by, nor may this letter or copies hereof be delivered to, any other person (including, without limitation, any person who acquires Notes from or through any Initial Purchaser), nor may this letter be used for any other purpose, without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,

K. “TBOC” means the Texas Business Organizations Code, as amended.

As counsel to the Company, we have examined and relied upon originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such agreements, instruments, certificates, records and other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of rendering the opinions set forth in this letter. In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies or by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission or which we obtained from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“▇▇▇▇▇”) or other sites on the internet, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. If any document we examined in printed, word processed or similar form has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on ▇▇▇▇▇, we have assumed that the document filed on ▇▇▇▇▇ is identical to the document we examined, except for ▇▇▇▇▇ formatting changes. As to facts and certain other matters and the consequences thereof relevant to the opinions expressed herein, we have relied without independent investigation or verification upon, and assumed the accuracy and completeness of, (a) certificates, letters and oral and written statements and representations of public officials, officers and other representatives of the Company, the Covered Guarantors, accountants for the Company, and others and (b) the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement.

Based on and subject to the foregoing and the other limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

(i) The Company is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver and perform its obligations under the Supplemental Indenture.

(ii) Each Corporate Guarantor is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, the State of California or the State of Texas, as applicable. Each Corporate Guarantor has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver and perform its obligations under the Guarantor Transaction Documents.

(iii) Each LLC Guarantor is a limited liability company validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each LLC Guarantor has the limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver and perform its obligations under the Guarantor Transaction Documents.

(iv) The Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and each Covered Guarantor. The Indenture is a valid and binding obligation of the Company and each Guarantor, enforceable against the Company and each Guarantor in accordance with its terms.

(v) The Guarantee by each Covered Guarantor has been duly authorized by each Covered Guarantor. Assuming that the Notes have been authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Original Indenture and delivered to and paid for by the Initial Purchasers in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Guarantee by each Guarantor will be a valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

Annex D-2-4

(vi) The Exchange Notes Guarantee by each Covered Guarantor has been duly authorized by each Covered Guarantor. When the Exchange Notes are duly executed by authorized officers of the Company and authenticated by the Trustee, all in accordance with the Indenture, and delivered in exchange for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes in accordance with the Exchange Offer, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Exchange Notes Guarantee by each Guarantor will be a valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

(vii) Each of the Purchase Agreement Joinder and the Registration Rights Agreement Joinder has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Covered Guarantor. The Registration Rights Agreement is a valid and binding agreement of each Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms.

(viii) No consent, approval, authorization or other order of any federal regulatory body, federal administrative agency or other federal governmental body of the United States of America, any state regulatory body, state administrative agency or other state governmental body of the State of Delaware acting pursuant to the DGCL or the DLLCA or any state regulatory body, state administrative agency or other state governmental body of the State of New York, the State of California or the State of Texas is required under Applicable Laws for the execution and delivery by the Company of the Supplemental Indenture or the execution and delivery by any Guarantor of the Guarantor Transaction Documents.

(ix) The execution and delivery by the Company of the Supplemental Indenture and the execution and delivery by each Covered Guarantor of the Guarantor Transaction Documents to which such Covered Guarantor is a party do not (a) violate the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or any Corporate Guarantor or the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of any LLC Guarantor or (b) result in a violation by the Company or any Covered Guarantor of any of the terms and provisions of any Applicable Laws. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Supplemental Indenture and the execution and delivery by each Guarantor of the Guarantor Transaction Documents to which such Guarantor is a party do not (a) result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the agreements or instruments listed on Schedule II hereto or (b) result in a violation by the Company or any Guarantor of those state laws of the State of New York and those federal laws of the United States of America which, in our experience and without independent investigation, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Purchase Agreement; provided, that such state laws of the State of New York and such federal laws of the United States of America referenced in the preceding clause shall not include federal or state securities or blue sky laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Trust Indenture Act, or the 1940 Act), antifraud laws, pension or employee benefit laws or, in each case, any rules or regulations thereunder or similar matters.

We have discussed the matters addressed in this opinion letter with representatives of the Oklahoma Guarantors to the extent we have deemed appropriate. As to certain questions of fact we have, where such facts were not otherwise verified or established, relied upon the accuracy of the various factual representations and warranties of the parties set forth in the Opinion Documents, the Opinion Certificate and the Resolutions, as well as the accuracy of the Organizational Documents and the Good Standing Certificates. We have considered such questions of law as we have deemed appropriate or necessary to enable us to give the opinions hereinafter expressed.

A. Assumptions for Legal Opinions

In rendering the opinions expressed herein as to matters of fact (but not legal conclusions), we have assumed the following to be true and have conducted no investigation to determine to the contrary:

1. The genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies.

2. (a) Except insofar as we opine in opinion paragraphs 1 through 3 as to the Oklahoma Guarantors, (i) the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by all parties thereto and for such consideration as will support a simple contract and (ii) the person executing the Transaction Documents on behalf of each party thereto has full power and authority to do so; and (b) except insofar as we opine in opinion paragraphs 1 and 2 as to the Oklahoma Guarantors, the parties to the Transaction Documents are and will continue to be validly existing and in good standing under the law of the jurisdiction in which each is organized, located or required to be qualified by any such jurisdiction.

3. The conduct of the parties to the Notes Transaction complies with, and will comply with, any requirement of good faith, fair dealing, conscionability and commercial reasonableness.

4. There has not been any mutual mistake of fact or misunderstanding, fraud, duress or undue influence in connection with the Notes Transaction.

5. The Transaction Documents accurately reflect the complete understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder. There is no agreement, course of dealing or performance or usage of trade defining, supplementing, amending, modifying, waiving or qualifying the terms of any of the Opinion Documents.

Annex D-3-4

6. We have been provided with all organizational documents for each Oklahoma Guarantor, the Organizational Documents are complete and accurate, the Organizational Documents have not been amended or rescinded and there are no other organizational documents for either Oklahoma Guarantor other than the copies of the Organizational Documents provided to us. The Resolutions have not been amended, supplemented, modified or rescinded in any respect not reflected in the copy of the Resolutions provided to us. The Opinion Certificate remains in full force and effect as of the date hereof.

7. The statements, recitals, representations and warranties as to matters of fact set forth in the Transaction Documents are materially accurate and complete.

1. ALS has been duly formed, is validly existing and is in good standing as a limited liability company under the Oklahoma Limited Liability Company Act, 18 O.S. § 2000, et seq. as currently in effect (the “OK LLC Act”).

2. UPCO has been duly incorporated, is validly existing and is in good standing as a corporation under the Oklahoma General Corporation Act, 18 O.S. § 1001, et seq. as currently in effect (the “OK Corporation Act”).

3. The Opinion Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Oklahoma Guarantors as applicable.

4. The execution and delivery of the Opinion Documents by the Oklahoma Guarantors as applicable and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (A) do not and will not require any consents, approvals or authorizations by the Oklahoma Guarantors from, or any registrations, declarations or filings to be made by the Oklahoma Guarantors with, any governmental authority under any statute, rule or regulation of the State of Oklahoma (the

Annex D-3-5

“State”), applicable to the Oklahoma Guarantors that have not been obtained or made, except applicable securities laws including, without limitation, filings and consents required under such applicable securities laws in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (the “Transactions”), as to which no opinion is expressed; (B) do not and will not constitute a violation of the Organizational Documents of each Oklahoma Guarantor; or (C) do not and will not result in any violation of the OK LLC Act or the OK Corporation Act as applicable or the other laws of the State currently in effect and applicable to the Oklahoma Guarantors which in our experience, exercising customary professional diligence, is normally applicable to the Transactions, except for applicable securities laws as to which no opinion is expressed.

5. The Guarantee by each Oklahoma Guarantor of the Notes pursuant to the Initial Indenture (as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture) has been duly authorized by each Oklahoma Guarantor.

6. The guarantee by each Oklahoma Guarantor of any notes issued in exchange for the Notes pursuant to the Initial Indenture (as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture) and the registered exchange offer contemplated by the Original Registration Rights Agreement (as supplemented by the Registration Rights Agreement Joinder) has been duly authorized by each Oklahoma Guarantor.

C. Qualifications and Exceptions for Legal Opinions

All of our foregoing opinions are subject to the following qualifications and we except therefrom any opinion concerning such qualifications.

1. Our opinions in opinion paragraphs 1 and 2 with respect to due formation, valid existence and good standing of the Oklahoma Guarantors are based solely on our review of the OK LLC Act, the Oklahoma Corporation Act, the Organizational Documents, the Good Standing Certificates and such other evidence as provided to us of filings as are required by the OK SOS to qualify a domestic limited liability company or a domestic corporation to do business in the State.

2. Our opinions as to execution and delivery in opinion paragraph 3 are based solely on the representations in the Opinion Certificate.

3. We express no opinion in opinion paragraph 4(C) or otherwise, with regard to any federal law (including, without limitation, securities laws and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939) or (a) state securities and so-called “Blue Sky” laws and regulations; (b) state antitrust and unfair competition laws and regulations; (c) state or local environmental, subdivision, zoning, health, safety or land use laws and regulations, (d) state racketeering laws and regulations and banking laws and regulations, (e) state or local tax laws; (f) state statutes of general application to the extent they provide for criminal prosecution (e.g., mail fraud and wire fraud statutes); (g) state insurance laws; (h) administrative decisions, and rules and regulations of county, municipal, and special political subdivisions, whether state level, regional, or otherwise; (i) laws applicable to any provision in the Opinion Documents releasing, exculpating or exempting a party from, or requiring indemnification or contribution of a party for, liability for its own acts or omissions or to the extent that the same are inconsistent with public policy; and (j) usury laws.

Annex D-3-6

4. With respect to our opinions in opinion paragraph 4A, we express no opinion as to any consents or filings that might be required in the event of a breach or default under any of the Transaction Documents.

5. With respect to our opinions in opinion paragraph 4A, to the extent that the operation of any Oklahoma Guarantor’s current business constitutes “performance” by such Oklahoma Guarantor of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, various notices, filings, registrations, consents, authorizations, or other acts may be required with various governmental authorities or regulatory bodies or third parties. We express no opinion as to whether such notices, filings, registrations, consents, authorizations, or other acts have been made, obtained, or done, or will be made, obtained, or done.

6. Our opinion in opinion paragraph 4(C) as to the non-contravention of the laws of the State is not an opinion that the provisions of the Opinion Documents are enforceable against the Oklahoma Guarantors. Rather, it is our opinion that the execution and delivery of the Opinion Documents by the Oklahoma Guarantors are not prohibited by, and will not subject the Oklahoma Guarantors to a fine, penalty or other similar sanction under, any applicable laws of the State that in our experience, exercising customary professional diligence, are normally applicable to transactions of the type provided for in the Opinion Documents.

7. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any of the Opinion Documents.

8. Our opinions expressed herein are limited to the terms and provisions of the Transaction Documents, as applicable and directly pertinent to the Oklahoma Guarantors and the Guarantee, expressly and fully set out therein and without giving effect to the terms and provisions of any other instrument by reference made a part thereof. You are hereby advised that we assume no responsibility and express no opinion for any provisions of any document or agreement which we have not reviewed but that might be referred to in the documents reviewed, which may affect any opinion we have given herein.

(a) To the extent not prohibited by any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the Staff, the Company and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to (x) cause to be filed an Exchange Offer Registration Statement covering an offer to the Holders to exchange all the Registrable Securities for Exchange Securities and (y) have such Registration Statement become and remain effective until 180 days after the last Exchange Date for use by one or more Participating Broker-Dealers. The Company and the Guarantors shall commence the Exchange Offer promptly after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC and use their commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Exchange Offer not later than the Target Registration Date.

The Company and the Guarantors shall commence the Exchange Offer by mailing or otherwise making available in compliance with applicable procedures of the depositary for such Registrable Security the related Prospectus, appropriate letters of transmittal and other accompanying documents to each Holder stating, in addition to such other disclosures as are required by applicable law, substantially the following:

(i) that the Exchange Offer is being made pursuant to this Agreement and that all Registrable Securities validly tendered and not properly withdrawn will be accepted for exchange;

(ii) the dates of acceptance for exchange (which shall be a period of at least 20 Business Days from the date such notice is mailed or otherwise made available) (the “Exchange Dates”);

Exhibit B-6

(iii) that any Registrable Security not tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest but will not retain any rights under this Agreement, except as otherwise specified herein;

(iv) that any Holder electing to have a Registrable Security exchanged pursuant to the Exchange Offer will be required to (A) surrender such Registrable Security, together with the appropriate letters of transmittal, to the institution and at the address and in the manner specified in the notice, or (B) effect such exchange otherwise in compliance with the applicable procedures of the depositary for such Registrable Security, in each case prior to the close of business on the last Exchange Date; and

(v) that any Holder will be entitled to withdraw its election, not later than the close of business on the last Exchange Date, by (A) sending to the institution and at the address specified in the notice, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Registrable Securities delivered for exchange and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Securities exchanged or (B) effecting such withdrawal in compliance with the applicable procedures of the depositary for the Registrable Securities.

As a condition to participating in the Exchange Offer, a Holder will be required to represent to the Company and the Guarantors that (1) any Exchange Securities to be received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business, (2) at the time of the commencement of the Exchange Offer it has no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Exchange Securities in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act, (3) it is not an “affiliate” (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Company or any Guarantor, (4) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Securities, and (5) if such Holder is a broker-dealer that will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Registrable Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities, then such Holder will deliver a Prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available a Prospectus to purchasers) in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities.

As soon as reasonably practicable after the last Exchange Date, the Company and the Guarantors shall:

(I) accept for exchange Registrable Securities or portions thereof validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer; and

(II) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable Securities or portions thereof so accepted for exchange by the Company and issue, and cause the Trustee to promptly authenticate and deliver to each Holder, Exchange Securities equal in principal amount to the principal amount of the Registrable Securities tendered by such Holder.

The Company and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Exchange Offer as provided above and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any conditions, other than that the Exchange Offer does not violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the Staff.

Exhibit B-7

For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any provision herein purporting to require physical mailing, delivery or acceptance of any document or instrument, the Company and the Guarantors may conduct the Exchange Offer exclusively through the automated tender offer program of The Depository Trust Company or any successor or similar system permitting electronic transmittal, tender and acceptance of documents and instruments, provided that this provision shall apply only to Registrable Securities held in the form of beneficial interests in a global note deposited with (or held by a custodian for) The Depository Trust Company.

(b) In the event that (i) the Company and the Guarantors determine that the Exchange Offer Registration provided for in Section 2(a) hereof is not available or the Exchange Offer may not be completed as soon as reasonably practicable after the last Exchange Date because it would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the Staff, (ii) the Exchange Offer is not for any other reason completed by the Target Registration Date or (iii) upon receipt of a written request (a “Shelf Request”) from any Initial Purchaser representing that it holds Registrable Securities that are or were ineligible to be exchanged in the Exchange Offer, the Company and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be filed as soon as reasonably practicable after such determination, date or Shelf Request, as the case may be, a Shelf Registration Statement providing for the sale of all the Registrable Securities by the Holders thereof and use commercially reasonable efforts to have such Shelf Registration Statement become effective; provided that (x) no Holder will be entitled to have any Registrable Securities included in any Shelf Registration Statement, or entitled to use the prospectus forming a part of such Shelf Registration Statement, until such Holder shall have delivered a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire and provided such other information regarding such Holder to the Company as is contemplated by Section 3(b) hereof and, if necessary, the Shelf Registration Statement has been amended to reflect such information and (y) in no event shall the Company or the Guarantors be under any obligation to file any such Shelf Registration Statement before they are obligated to file an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof.

In the event that the Company and the Guarantors are required to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Company and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to file and have become effective both an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof with respect to all Registrable Securities and a Shelf Registration Statement (which may be a combined Registration Statement with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) with respect to offers and sales of Registrable Securities held by the Initial Purchasers after completion of the Exchange Offer.

The Company and the Guarantors agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement, if required, continuously effective until the Securities cease to be Registrable Securities (the “Shelf Effectiveness Period”). The Company and the Guarantors further agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement, the related Prospectus and any Free Writing Prospectus if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder or if reasonably requested by a Participating Holder of Registrable Securities with respect to information relating to such Holder, and to use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such amendment to become effective, if required, and such Shelf Registration Statement, Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus, as the case may be, to become usable as soon as thereafter reasonably practicable subject to Section 3(d) below. The Company and the Guarantors agree to furnish to the Participating Holders copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the SEC, as reasonably requested by the Participating Holders.

(c) The Company and the Guarantors shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) hereof. Each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions, brokerage commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement.

Exhibit B-8

(d) An Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the SEC. A Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the SEC or is automatically effective upon filing with the SEC as provided by Rule 462 under the Securities Act.

If a Registration Default occurs, the interest rate on the Registrable Securities will be increased by (i) 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period beginning on the day immediately following such Registration Default and (ii) an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period, in each case until and including the date such Registration Default ends, up to a maximum increase of 1.00% per annum (such interest referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, “Additional Interest”). A Registration Default ends when the Securities cease to be Registrable Securities or, if earlier, (1) in the case of a Registration Default under clause (i) of the definition thereof, when the Exchange Offer is completed, (2) in the case of a Registration Default under clause (ii) or clause (iii) of the definition thereof, when the Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective or (3) in the case of a Registration Default under clause (iv) or clause (v) of the definition thereof, when the Shelf Registration Statement again becomes effective or the Prospectus again becomes usable. If at any time more than one Registration Default has occurred and is continuing, then, until the next date that there is no Registration Default, the increase in interest rate provided for by this paragraph shall apply as if there occurred a single Registration Default that begins on the date that the earliest such Registration Default occurred and ends on such next date that there is no Registration Default.

(e) It is acknowledged that the interest rate increase set forth above is the sole remedy for any default hereunder.

3. Registration Procedures.

(xv) in the case of a Shelf Registration, enter into such customary agreements and take all such other actions in connection therewith (including those requested by the Participating Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement) in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities including, but not limited to, an Underwritten Offering and in such connection, (1) to the extent possible, make such representations and warranties to the Underwriters of such Registrable Securities with respect to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries and the Registration Statement, Prospectus, any Free Writing Prospectus and documents incorporated by reference or deemed incorporated by reference, if any, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings and consistent with the applicable representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement and confirm the same if and when requested; provided that the Participating Holders’ representations and warranties shall be of the substance and scope as are customarily made by selling securityholders to underwriters and issuers in underwritten offerings, (2) use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors (which opinions, in form, scope and

Exhibit B-12

substance, shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Underwriters and their respective counsel) addressed to each Underwriter of Registrable Securities, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and consistent with the opinions delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement; provided that, if required by the Underwriter, counsel for the Participating Holders shall provide an opinion to the Underwriter covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested from selling securityholders by underwriters in underwritten offerings, (3) use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain “comfort” letters from the independent registered public accountants of the Company and the Guarantors (and, if necessary, any other registered public accountant of any subsidiary of the Company or any Guarantor, or of any business acquired by the Company or any Guarantor for which financial statements and financial data are or are required to be included in the Registration Statement) addressed to each Participating Holder (to the extent permitted by applicable professional standards) and Underwriter of Registrable Securities, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings, including but not limited to financial information contained in any preliminary prospectus, Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus and (4) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities being sold or by the Underwriters, and which are customarily delivered in underwritten offerings, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Guarantors made pursuant to clause (1) above and to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in an underwriting agreement; and

(xvi) so long as any Registrable Securities remain outstanding, cause each Additional Guarantor upon the creation or acquisition by the Company of such Additional Guarantor, to execute a counterpart to this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex A and to deliver such counterpart to the Initial Purchasers no later than five Business Days following the execution thereof.

(b) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company may require, as a condition to including a Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Shelf Registration Statement, such Holder of Registrable Securities to furnish to the Company a Notice and Questionnaire and such other information regarding such Holder and the proposed disposition by such Holder of such Registrable Securities as the Company and the Guarantors may from time to time reasonably request in writing. No Holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled to include any of its Registrable Securities in any Shelf Registration pursuant to this Agreement unless such Holder furnishes to the Company in writing, promptly (but in no event later than 10 days) following receipt of a written request therefor, such information as the Company may reasonably request for inclusion in any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein about such Holder required to be disclosed so that the information about such Holder disclosed is not materially misleading and does not omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and no such Holder shall be entitled to Additional Interest pursuant hereto unless and until such Holder shall have provided such information.

(c) Each Participating Holder and Participating Broker-Dealer agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company and the Guarantors of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(a)(vi)(3) or Section 3(a)(vi)(5) hereof or any notice pursuant to Section 3(d), such Participating Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, respectively, until such Participating Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus and any Free Writing Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(a)(x) hereof or notice that the period referred to in Section 3(d) has ended and, if so directed by

Exhibit B-13

the Company and the Guarantors, such Participating Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, will deliver to the Company and the Guarantors all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Participating Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s possession, of the Prospectus and any Free Writing Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities that is current at the time of receipt of such notice.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may postpone effecting a Shelf Registration (or the maintenance of its effectiveness and usability) or may suspend the usability of the Prospectus relating to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement if (i) an event occurs and is continuing as a result of which the Shelf Registration, any related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, would, in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of the Company, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading (with respect to such a Prospectus only, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), and (ii) (a) the board of directors of the Company determines in its good faith judgment that the disclosure of such event at such time would have a material adverse effect on the business, operations or prospects of the Company, (b) the disclosure otherwise relates to a pending material business transaction that has not yet been publicly disclosed or (c) the board of directors of the Company determines in its good faith judgment that some other valid business purpose exists for not making such disclosure at such time; provided, however, that the Company may only suspend the offering and sale of Securities under a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this clause (ii) for a period or periods not in excess of 60 consecutive days or more than two (2) times during any calendar year during which such Shelf Registration Statement is required to be effective and usable hereunder (measured from the effective time of such Shelf Registration Statement to successive anniversaries thereof).

(e) The Participating Holders who desire to do so may sell such Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment bank or investment banks and manager or managers (each an “Underwriter”) that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities included in such offering, subject in each case to consent by the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as such bank or manager is nationally recognized as an underwriter of debt securities offerings).

(f) Each Holder agrees that such Holder shall not take any action that would result in the Company or Guarantors being required to file with the SEC a free writing prospectus, as defined in Rule 405, as amended, under the Securities Act, prepared by or on behalf of such Holder that otherwise would not be required to be filed by the Company or Guarantors thereunder, but for the action of such Holder. No Holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such Holder (i) agrees to sell such Holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

4. Participation of Broker-Dealers in Exchange Offer.

(a) The Staff has taken the position that any broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Securities that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”) may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities.

Exhibit B-14

The Company and the Guarantors understand that it is the Staff’s position that if the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities, without naming the Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying the amount of Exchange Securities owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers (or, to the extent permitted by law, made available to purchasers) to satisfy their prospectus delivery obligation under the Securities Act in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for their own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the Securities Act.

(b) In light of the above, and subject to Section 3(d), the Company and the Guarantors agree to amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to include the necessary plan of distribution and related disclosure for a period of up to 180 days after the last Exchange Date, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Exchange Securities by Participating Broker-Dealers consistent with the positions of the Staff recited in Section 4(a) above. The Company and the Guarantors further agree that Participating Broker-Dealers shall be authorized, subject to Section 3(d), to deliver such Prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available) during such period in connection with the resales contemplated by this Section 4.

(c) The Initial Purchasers shall have no liability to the Company, any Guarantor or any Holder with respect to any request that they may make pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof.

5. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser and each Holder, their respective affiliates, directors and officers and each Person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser or any Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus, any Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” (“Issuer Information”) filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Initial Purchaser or information relating to any Holder furnished to the Company in writing through ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any selling Holder, respectively, expressly for use therein. In connection with any Underwritten Offering permitted by Section 3, the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will also indemnify the Underwriters, if any, selling brokers, dealers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their respective affiliates and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders, if requested in connection with any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, any Free Writing Prospectus or any Issuer Information.

Exhibit B-15

(b) Each Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, the Initial Purchasers and the other selling Holders, the directors of the Company and the Guarantors, each officer of the Company and the Guarantors who signed the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company, the Guarantors, any Initial Purchaser and any other selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus and any Free Writing Prospectus.

(c) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such Person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to one local counsel per relevant jurisdiction) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reasonable and documented and shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm (x) for any Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control Persons of such Initial Purchaser shall be designated in writing by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, (y) for any Holder, its directors and officers and any control Persons of such Holder shall be designated in writing by the Majority Holders and (z) in all other cases shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request, (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement as soon as reasonably

Exhibit B-16

practicable under the terms of such settlement and in any event at least 5 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors from the offering of the Securities and the Exchange Securities, on the one hand, and by the Holders from receiving Securities or Exchange Securities registered under the Securities Act, on the other hand, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Holders on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Holders on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors or by the Holders and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) The Company, the Guarantors and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, in no event shall a Holder be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities or Exchange Securities sold by such Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5 are several and not joint.

(f) The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

(g) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or any Holder or any Person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any Holder, or by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantors or the officers or directors of or any Person controlling the Company or the Guarantors, (iii) acceptance of any of the Exchange Securities and (iv) any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement.

Exhibit B-17

6. General.

(a) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and the Guarantors represent, warrant and agree that (i) the rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict in any material respect with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of any other outstanding securities issued or guaranteed by the Company or any Guarantor under any other agreement and (ii) neither the Company nor any Guarantor has entered into, or on or after the date of this Agreement will enter into, any agreement that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts in any material respect with the provisions hereof.

(b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the written consent of Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Registrable Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent; provided that no amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent to any departure from the provisions of Section 5 hereof shall be effective as against any Holder of Registrable Securities unless consented to in writing by such Holder. Any amendments, modifications, supplements, waivers or consents pursuant to this Section 6(b) shall be by a writing executed by each of the parties hereto. Each Holder of Registrable Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent thereafter shall be bound by any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 6(b), whether or not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent appears on the Registrable Securities or is delivered to such Holder. Each Holder may waive compliance with respect to any obligation of the Company or any Guarantor under this Agreement as it may apply or be enforced by such particular Holder.

(c) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, registered first-class mail, telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight delivery (i) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the Company by means of a notice given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c), which address initially is, with respect to the Initial Purchasers, the address set forth in the Purchase Agreement; (ii) if to the Company and the Guarantors, initially at the Company’s address set forth in the Purchase Agreement and thereafter at such other address, notice of which is given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c); and (iii) to such other persons at their respective addresses as provided in the Purchase Agreement and thereafter at such other address, notice of which is given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c). All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; three (3) Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and on the next Business Day if timely delivered to an air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery. Copies of all such notices, demands or other communications shall be concurrently delivered by the Person giving the same to the Trustee, at the address specified in the Indenture.

(d) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns and transferees of each of the parties, including, without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of Registrable Securities in violation of the terms of the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall

Exhibit B-18

acquire Registrable Securities in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Registrable Securities shall be held subject to all the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Registrable Securities such Person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and such Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof. The Initial Purchasers (in their capacity as Initial Purchasers) shall have no liability or obligation to the Company or the Guarantors with respect to any failure by a Holder to comply with, or any breach by any Holder of, any of the obligations of such Holder under this Agreement.

(e) Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Holder shall be a third party beneficiary to the agreements made hereunder between the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights or the rights of other Holders hereunder.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile, email or other electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(g) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are not a part of this Agreement and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

(h) Governing Law. This Agreement, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

(i) Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereto irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(j) Entire Agreement; Severability. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings with respect thereto. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable or against public policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, void or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, void or unenforceable provisions.
