(a)                                  So long as the Riverstone Stockholders collectively hold at least forty-five percent (45%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, in connection with any proposed Company Sale, the Riverstone Stockholders shall have the right (a “Bring-Along Right”), but not the obligation, to cause all, but not less than all, Other Stockholders (other than any Superior Stockholder) to tender for purchase to the Third Party Purchaser in such Company Sale, a number of shares of Common Stock (including Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Vested Options) equaling the amount derived by multiplying (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be purchased by the Third Party Purchaser by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock held by such Other Stockholder (which shall, for the purpose of this Section 4(a), be deemed to include all

8

Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all Vested Options held by such Other Stockholder and any restricted shares of Common Stock held by such Other Stockholder) and the denominator of which is the total number of then outstanding shares of Common Stock (which shall, for the purpose of this Section 4(a), be deemed to include all Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all Vested Options then outstanding and all restricted shares of Common Stock then outstanding).

(b)                                 Any Riverstone Stockholder that elects to exercise its Bring-Along Right shall so notify each of the Other Stockholders (other than any Superior Stockholder) pursuant to a written notice (each, a “Bring-Along Notice”) delivered to such Other Stockholders at least 10 Business Days prior to the date on which the Riverstone Stockholder expects the proposed Company Sale that triggered such Bring-Along Right to be consummated.  Each Bring-Along Notice shall set forth: (i) the name of the Third Party Purchaser and the amount of Common Stock proposed to be purchased by such Third Party Purchaser, (ii) the proposed amount and form of consideration and the terms and conditions of payment offered by the Third Party Purchaser and a summary of any other material terms pertaining to the Transfer (“Third Party Terms”), together with a copy of any written documents constituting the offer or proposal of the Third Party Purchaser and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Vested Options that such Other Stockholder is required to sell pursuant to the Bring-Along Right; provided, however, that the aggregate consideration payable for Vested Options sold to a Third Party Purchaser pursuant to the Bring-Along Right shall be (A) the aggregate consideration payable with respect to the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Vested Options, minus (B) the aggregate exercise price payable upon the exercise of such Vested Options.  The terms and conditions applicable to such purchase and sale of any shares of Common Stock and Vested Options purchased from any Other Stockholder pursuant to this Section 4 shall otherwise be the same as the terms and conditions applicable to such Riverstone Stockholders, including the timing of purchase, sale and payment.

(c)                                  Upon the receipt of a Bring-Along Notice by an Other Stockholder (other than any Superior Stockholder), each such Other Stockholder shall be obligated to sell the number of shares of Common Stock and Vested Options required to be sold by such Stockholder as set forth in the Bring-Along Notice on the Third Party Terms, on the terms and subject to the conditions generally applicable to all Stockholders selling to the Third Party Purchaser in connection with such transaction(s) and subject to the consummation of such transaction(s) in accordance with their terms.

(d)                                 At the closing of the Transfer to any Third Party Purchaser pursuant to this Section 4, the Third Party Purchaser shall remit to each applicable Other Stockholder the consideration for the Common Stock and Vested Options to be sold by such Other Stockholder (less any portion of the consideration to be escrowed or otherwise held back in accordance with the Third Party Terms; provided, however, that such escrow or hold back is pro rata among all Stockholders and other parties selling securities in such transaction), against delivery by such Stockholder of the certificates (if any) representing such Common Stock, duly endorsed for Transfer or with duly executed stock powers or similar instruments, and such other instruments of Transfer or acknowledgments of cancellation of any Vested Options to be sold by such Stockholder, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by the Third Party Purchaser and the Company, and the compliance by such Stockholder with any other conditions to closing

9

generally applicable to all Stockholders selling Common Stock in such transaction; provided, no such condition shall require such Stockholder to undertake or agree to bear joint and several liability with any other party thereto or to bear more than such Stockholder’s proportionate share of any indemnification obligations.

SECTION 5.                            TAG-ALONG RIGHTS

(a)                                  In the event that a Riverstone Stockholder proposes to Transfer all or any portion of the Common Stock then held by such Riverstone Stockholder to a Third Party Purchaser prior to the Lock-up Release Date, other than pursuant to an Exempt Transfer, each of the Management Stockholders and their respective Permitted Transferees and each of the Management Trust Stockholders (collectively, the “Tag-Along Stockholders”) shall have the right (the “Tag-Along Right”) to sell in their discretion up to the same percentage of such Tag-Along Stockholder’s Common Stock as all Riverstone Stockholders are proposing to sell in such a transaction by requesting that such Third Party Purchaser purchase from such Tag-Along Stockholder up to the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number derived by multiplying (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock that the proposed Third Party Purchaser(s) have agreed or committed to purchase by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Tag-Along Stockholder (other than shares issuable upon the exercise of Vested Options of such Tag-Along Stockholder, but including unvested restricted shares of Common Stock held by such Stockholder if the proposed Transfer would constitute a Company Sale and including any shares to be issued upon any exercise of Vested Options conditioned upon the consummation of the Transfer), and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (other than shares issuable upon the exercise of then-outstanding Vested Options, but including unvested restricted shares of Common Stock then outstanding if the proposed Transfer would constitute a Company Sale and including any shares issuable upon the exercise of Vested Options conditioned upon the consummation of such Transfer).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any other provision contained herein, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that each Management Stockholder and his or her Permitted Transferees or each Management Trust Stockholder shall have the right to sell pursuant to this Section 5 in connection with all such sales prior to the Lock-up Date shall not exceed such Stockholder’s “Tag-Along Sale Cap” set forth next to such Stockholder’s name on Exhibit B.  Any shares of Common Stock purchased from Tag-Along Stockholders pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall be purchased upon the same terms and conditions (including timing of purchase and payment) as such proposed Transfer by such Riverstone Stockholder.

(b)                                 If any Riverstone Stockholder proposes to make a Transfer triggering the Tag-Along Right, such Riverstone Stockholder shall send a written notice (each, a “Sale Notice”) to all of Tag-Along Stockholders at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which such Riverstone Stockholder expects to consummate such Transfer.  Each Sale Notice shall set forth the Third Party Terms applicable to the proposed Transfer, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock the Tag-Along Stockholder to whom the Sale Notice is delivered is entitled to sell pursuant to the Tag-Along Right and the anticipated closing date of the Transfer, and shall be accompanied by a copy of any written documents reflecting the terms and conditions agreed to by the Riverstone Stockholder and the Third Party Purchaser.

10

(c)                                  Each Tag-Along Stockholder that desires to exercise the Tag-Along Right shall deliver a written notice (each, a “Tag-Along Notice”) to that effect to the Riverstone Stockholder proposing to sell Common Stock within five (5) Business Days following receipt of the Sale Notice from such Riverstone Stockholder.  The Tag-Along Notice shall state the number of shares of Common Stock (not to exceed the amount determined in accordance with Section 5(a)) that such Tag-Along Stockholder proposes to include in such Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser, and shall constitute the Tag-Along Stockholder’s binding agreement to sell its shares on the terms and subject to the conditions as are specified in or accompany the Sale Notice.  If the Third Party Purchaser does not purchase the specified number of shares of Common Stock from the Tag-Along Stockholders on the same terms and conditions as specified in the Sale Notice and at the same time as the Third Party Purchaser purchases Common Stock from such Riverstone Stockholder, then such Riverstone Stockholder shall not be entitled to sell any shares of Common Stock to the proposed Third Party Purchaser in the proposed Transfer unless such Riverstone Stockholder or its designee concurrently purchases from each such Tag-Along Stockholder the number of shares of Common Stock of such Tag-along Stockholder as is specified in the Tag-Along Notice, on the Third Party Terms.

(d)                                 At the closing of the Transfer to any Third Party Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5, the Third Party Purchaser shall remit to each Tag-Along Stockholder the consideration for the Common Stock of such Tag-Along Stockholder sold pursuant hereto (less any such consideration to be escrowed or otherwise held back in accordance with the Third Party Terms; provided, however, that such escrow or hold back is pro rata among all sellers of Common Stock participating in such transaction), against delivery by such Tag-Along Stockholder of certificates (if any) representing such Common Stock, duly endorsed for Transfer or with duly executed stock powers or similar instruments, or such other instrument of Transfer of such Common Stock as may be reasonably requested by the Third Party Purchaser and the Company, and the compliance by such Stockholder with any other conditions to closing generally applicable to all Stockholders selling Common Stock in such transaction; provided that no such condition shall require such Stockholder to undertake or agree to bear joint and several liability with any other party thereto or to bear more than such Stockholder’s proportionate share of any indemnification obligations.

(e)                                  If any Transfer described in a Tag-Along Notice has not been consummated in accordance with the terms set forth in the Tag-Along Notice within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the expiration of the five (5) Business Day election period specified in Section 5(c), or if the terms of such proposed Transfer have been modified in any material respect from those set forth in the Tag-Along Notice, such Transfer may not be completed without first providing a new Tag-Along Notice to the Tag-Along Stockholders and allowing another opportunity for such Stockholders to elect to exercise their Tag-Along Right set forth in this Section 5.

SECTION 6.                            COOPERATION

(a)                                  If the Company or any Riverstone Stockholder enters into any negotiation with respect to any transaction which could give rise to the issuance of Securities (as defined in the Securities Act) to a Stockholder for which Rule 506 (or any similar rule then in effect) promulgated under the Securities Act may be available, each such Stockholder shall, if

11

requested by the Company, appoint for such Stockholder a “purchaser representative” (as such term is defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act) reasonably acceptable to the Company to advise such Stockholder in connection with such transaction.  If such purchaser representative is designated by the Company, the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such purchaser representative, but if any Stockholder appoints another purchaser representative, such Stockholder shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of the purchaser representative so appointed.

(b)                                 Subject to the applicable provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, each of the Stockholders agrees that in any transaction in which such Stockholder sells some or all of the Common Stock and/or Vested Options held by such Stockholder (pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, and whether structured as a sale of equity, merger, recapitalization, sale of assets or otherwise), such Stockholder shall bear his, her or its pro rata portion of the costs of such transaction (based upon the percentage that the number of shares of Common Stock that are sold for such Stockholder in such transaction bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock that are sold in such transaction) to the extent such costs are incurred for the benefit of all holders of Common Stock and are not otherwise paid by the Company or the acquiring party.

(c)                                  If any action by the Other Stockholders is required in connection with any transaction giving rise to a Bring-Along Right or any Company Sale, each of the Other Stockholders shall take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the Riverstone Stockholders in connection therewith, so long as the Company and the Riverstone Stockholders are then in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Riverstone Stockholders take the same or equivalent action as is being requested of the Other Stockholders.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Other Stockholders agrees that he, she or it (i) shall consent to and raise no objections against such transaction, (ii) shall execute any Common Stock purchase agreement, merger agreement or other agreement in reasonably customary form entered into with the Third Party Purchaser with respect to such transaction memorializing the definitive Third Party Terms of such transaction and any ancillary agreement with respect thereto, so long as such agreements do not place disproportionate costs, expenses, risks or potential liability on the Other Stockholders as compared to any other Stockholders, (iii) shall vote the Common Stock held by such Other Stockholder in favor of such transaction, (iv) shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Director nominee to vote in favor of such transaction (including without limitation by removal or replacement of any such Director) and (v) shall refrain from the exercise of dissenters’ appraisal rights with respect to such transaction.

(l)                                     Founding Stockholders.  The Stockholders and the Company acknowledge that, for purposes of the Bylaws and the Company’s certificate of incorporation, the term “Founding Stockholders” shall mean the Riverstone Stockholders, the Superior Stockholders, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.
