TRANSFER AGREEMENT

THIS TRANSFER AGREEMENT, dated as of November 19, 2013 (this “Agreement”), by and among CAMAC ENERGY INC., a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware, USA (“CEI”), CAMAC PETROLEUM LIMITED, a company incorporated in the Federal Republic of Nigeria and a wholly owned subsidiary of CEI (“CPL,” and together with CEI, the “CEI Parties”); CAMAC ENERGY HOLDINGS LIMITED, a Cayman Islands company (“CEHL”); CAMAC INTERNATIONAL (NIGERIA) LIMITED, a company incorporated in the Federal Republic of Nigeria (“CINL”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of CEHL; and ALLIED ENERGY PLC (formerly, Allied Energy Resources Nigeria Limited), a company incorporated in the Federal Republic of Nigeria and a wholly owned subsidiary of CEHL (“Allied,” and together with CEHL and CINL, the “Allied Parties”). Each of the parties to this Agreement is individually referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Annex A hereto.

BACKGROUND

A. CEI and its Subsidiaries are engaged in the business of oil and gas development, production and distribution.

B. On June 3, 1992, Allied was awarded Oil Prospecting License 210 (“OPL 210”) by the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 2.5% of the interest in which Allied subsequently assigned to CINL, on September 30, 1992, pursuant to an assignment agreement by and between Allied and CINL.

C. On August 28, 2002, Allied and CINL were granted Oil Mining Lease 120 and Oil Mining Lease 121 (as further described in Annex B hereto, the “OMLs”) by the Federal Republic of Nigeria, with respect to OPL 210, for a term of 20 years commencing on February 27, 2001.

D. On July 22, 2005, Allied, CINL and the Nigerian AGIP Exploration Limited (“NAE”), entered into a Production Sharing Contract (the “PSC”) setting out the terms of agreement in relation to petroleum operations in the area covered by the OMLs.

E. On April 7, 2010, Allied and CINL novated to CPL the beneficial ownership of their respective interests in and all of their rights and obligations then existing under the PSC in relation to that certain oilfield asset known as the Oyo Field in the OMLs (the “Oyo Field”).

F. On February 15, 2011, Allied and CINL novated to CPL the beneficial ownership of their respective interests in and all of their rights and obligations then existing under the PSC in relation to the remainder of the OMLs.

G. On June 29, 2012, Allied acquired from NAE all of NAE’s beneficial ownership and interest in and all of NAE’s rights and obligations then existing under the PSC.

H. CEI desires to acquire (i) all of Allied’s remaining interest in the PSC subject to certain remaining rights and obligations of Allied under the PSC that are required by Law to remain with Allied (the “Contract Rights”), (ii) the benefits and rights to require performance of the obligations of Allied under the PSC that are required by Law to remain with Allied and (iii) certain other Contracts (as further described in Annex C, the “Transferred Contracts”) and tangible assets relating to the OMLs (as further described in Annex C, the “Other Assets,” and together with the Contract Rights and Transferred Contracts, the “Transferred Interests”), for consideration consisting of 497,454,857 shares of CEI’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), cash in the amount of one hundred seventy million dollars ($170,000,000) and a fifty million dollar ($50,000,000) convertible subordinated promissory note. Allied and CINL shall retain all record right, title and interest in and to the OMLs, subject to the PSC, this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (as defined herein).

-1-

I. Concurrently with the Closing, the Parties will enter into, or cause their Affiliates to enter into, the Transaction Documents.

J. As a condition precedent to the Closing, CEI will enter into the Share Purchase Agreement with the Public Investment Corporation (SOC) Limited (registration number 2005/009094/06), a state-owned company registered and duly incorporated in accordance with the laws of the Republic of South Africa, and its Affiliates (“PIC”) resulting in gross proceeds from the sale and issuance of 376,884,422 shares of Common Stock of two hundred seventy million dollars ($270,000,000) of which one hundred thirty-five million dollars ($135,000,000) is payable at the Closing and one hundred thirty-five million dollars ($135,000,000) is payable on the later of 90 days after the Closing and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Financing”).

K. The board of directors of CEI, upon the recommendation of a special committee consisting of independent members of the board of directors of CEI (the “Special Committee”), has (i) approved the terms of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and all transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (taken as a whole, the “Transactions”), (ii) determined that the Transactions are fair to and in the best interest of CEI and the Minority Stockholders, and (iii) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of CEI approve (A) this Agreement, including the issuance of (1) the Consideration Shares to Allied and the potential issuance of the Second Shares to Allied pursuant to Section 10.9(c), and (2) the potential issuance of the Conversion Shares (as such term is defined in the Convertible Note) to Allied upon any conversion of the Convertible Note, (B) the Share Purchase Agreement, including the Financing and sale and issuance of shares of Common Stock to PIC pursuant thereto, (C) the CEI Certificate Amendment and (D) the declaration and payment of the Special Dividend.

L. The board of directors of Allied has considered and has declared advisable this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the Transactions.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties agree as follows:

-2-

Article I

Transfer of Contract Rights; Related Transactions

Section 1.1 Transfer of Transferred Interests. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, each of the CEI Parties will acquire or cause to be acquired, and each of the Allied Parties will transfer or cause to be transferred, all of the rights, title and interest of the Allied Parties in and to the Transferred Interests. The transfer of the Contract Rights related to the PSC shall be made by novation of all of Allied’s and CINL’s right, title and interest in and to the PSC, together with all of Allied’s and CINL’s liabilities and obligations attributable to or arising from operations on the OMLs or under or with respect to the Transferred Contracts from and after the Closing. Such novation shall be subject to the terms of the Novation Agreement in substantially the form of Annex I, which shall be executed concurrently with this Agreement but effective at the Closing. The transfer of some or all of the Transferred Contracts and Other Assets shall be made by assignment and sale of all of Allied’s and CINL’s right, title and interest in and to the Transferred Contracts and Other Assets; provided, however, that if Allied or CINL cannot assign any of its right, title and interest in and to any of the Transferred Contracts or Other Assets to the CEI Parties, then Allied or CINL, as applicable, shall retain and hold such right, title and interest for the benefit of the CEI Parties. With respect to any Transferred Contracts retained by Allied or CINL pursuant to the previous sentence, the CEI Parties shall reimburse Allied for the direct costs payable to the counterparty for the benefits received by the CEI Parties under any retained Transferred Contracts, but any such reimbursement shall exclude any general and administrative costs incurred by Allied or CINL, as applicable. Such assignment shall be subject to the terms of the Assignment and ▇▇▇▇ of Sale in substantially the form of Annex J, which shall be effective at the Closing.

Section 1.2 Complete Transfer. Each of the Allied Parties represents and warrants that the transfer of the Transferred Interests pursuant to the Novation Agreement, the Assignment and ▇▇▇▇ of Sale and this Agreement constitutes a complete transfer of all of the Transferred Interests, free and clear of (a) all Liens on the OMLs and the Transferred Interests and (b) any material adverse contractual obligations other than the OMLs, the PSC and the Transferred Contracts, and the Allied Parties reserve no rights to market or otherwise transfer any interest in and to the OMLs or the Transferred Interests, except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, upon Closing neither CEI nor CPL shall have any obligation to any of the Allied Parties to support, maintain, offer, or do any other act relating to the OMLs, the PSC or the Transferred Interests other than as set forth herein, in the Novation Agreement, the Assignment and ▇▇▇▇ of Sale or in the other Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, the Allied Parties expressly retain all right, title and interest in and to any claim or counterclaim that they may have asserted or may be entitled to assert against NAE, or any Affiliate thereof, in any Action, including the Actions described in Allied Disclosure Schedule 4.5 (collectively, the “NAE Claims”).

Section 1.3 Release and Discharge. At the Closing, except as otherwise provided for in the Transaction Documents, the Allied Parties on the one hand, and the CEI Parties on the other hand, hereby release and discharge each other from further obligations to each other with respect to the Contract Rights (other than as stockholders of CEI) and the Other Assets and their respective rights against each other with respect to the Transferred Interests are cancelled; provided, however, that the foregoing does not affect (x) the continuing validity and enforceability of existing intercompany accounts between the Allied Parties, or any of them, on the one hand and the CEI Parties, or any of them on the other, or (y) the Amended and Restated Promissory Note and CEI’s obligations thereunder.

-3-

Section 1.4 No Assumption of Liabilities. Except as otherwise provided for in the Transaction Documents, this Agreement does not transfer, the CEI Parties do not assume and the CEI Parties expressly disclaim any and all liabilities, costs, debts, claims and obligations of the Allied Parties relating to the OMLs, the PSC or the Transferred Contracts or otherwise. Except as otherwise provided for in the Transaction Documents, no CEI Party shall have any obligation to any Allied Party with respect to the OMLs, the PSC or the Transferred Interests arising from facts existing or events occurring at or prior to the Closing.

Article II

(vi) the determination of the Independent Accountants shall be final and binding on the Parties; and each Party shall bear one-half of the costs of the determination, including the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants.

(f) Payment of Disputed Amounts. Following referral to the Independent Accountants of a disputed item or items pursuant to Section 2.3(d), within ten (10) Business Days of determination by the Independent Accountants of any disputed Adjustment, Allied or CEI, as the case may be, shall pay to the other Party the amount due together with interest at the Agreed Rate on that amount for the period from and including the Closing Date up to, but excluding, the date of actual payment. Such amount shall be paid in immediately available funds to an account designated by CEI or Allied, as the case may be, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such payment.

(g) Delayed Adjustments. If, within one year of the Closing Date, any Allied Party, on the one hand, or any CEI Party, on the other hand, makes any payment or receives revenue that should have been accounted for as an item of Adjustment on the Final Adjustment Statement had the payment been made or the revenue received prior to such statement becoming final under this Section 2.3, the Party (i) making the payment will promptly invoice the other Party for the payment amount, including appropriate back-up (e.g., vendor invoices, cancelled checks or other evidence of payment) and the invoiced party will pay the amount due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date or (ii) receiving the revenue will pay over the proceeds promptly upon receipt, and provide evidence of any lawful or otherwise proper deductions therefrom.

Subject to the exceptions set forth in the schedule of exceptions, which shall state the specific subsection of this Article IV to which each disclosure or exception is made by the Allied Parties and attached hereto (the “Allied Disclosure Schedules”), the Allied Parties jointly and severally represent and warrant to the CEI Parties as of the date hereof and as of the Closing as follows:

Section 4.1 Organization and Standing. Each of the Allied Parties is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of incorporation or organization. Each of the Allied Parties is duly qualified to do business in each of the jurisdictions in which the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business which it conducts requires qualification, except where the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in an Allied Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Allied Parties has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate the OMLs and to carry on its business as now being conducted pursuant to the OMLs, the PSC and the Transferred Contracts. The Allied Parties have made available to CEI true and complete copies of the Allied Constituent Instruments.

The execution and delivery by each of the Allied Parties of this Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation by it of the Transactions have been duly authorized and approved by the board of directors or other governing body of such Person; such authorization and approval remains in effect and has not been rescinded or qualified in any respect; and no other proceeding on the part of any such Person is necessary to authorize this Agreement, the Transaction Documents to which it is party or the consummation of the Transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Each of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to which any Allied Party is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Person and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of each of the Allied Parties, enforceable against the Allied Parties in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or similar laws of general application now or hereafter in effect affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

-7-

Section 4.3 No Conflicts. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents by the Allied Parties, compliance by any of them with the terms hereof and thereof nor consummation of the Transactions will (a) conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the Transferred Interests under any provision of: (i) any Allied Constituent Instrument; (ii) any material Contract to which any of the Allied Parties is a party or to or by which it (or any of its assets and properties) is subject or bound; (iii) any applicable Law or Legal Requirement; or (iv) any Allied Material Permit; (b) result in any material Judgment being entered, brought into force or otherwise made applicable to any of the Transferred Interests; or (c) terminate or modify, or give any third Person the right to terminate or modify, the provisions or terms of any of the OMLs, the PSC or the Transferred Contracts.

Section 4.4 Representations Related to the OMLs, the PSC and the Transferred Contracts.

(a) The OMLs, the PSC and Transferred Contracts. Each of the OMLs, the PSC and the Transferred Contracts is valid, binding and in full force and effect in all material respects and enforceable by and against the Allied Parties, as applicable, in accordance with its terms. None of the Allied Parties is in violation of, or in default under (nor does there exist any condition which upon the passage of time or the giving of notice would cause such a violation of, or default under), any of the OMLs, the PSC or the Transferred Contracts to which any Allied Party is a party, except for violations or defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in an Allied Material Adverse Effect; and, except as set forth on Allied Disclosure Schedule 4.4(a), to the Allied Parties’ Knowledge, no other Person has violated or breached, or committed any default under, any of the OMLs, the PSC or the Transferred Contracts, except for violations, breaches and defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have an Allied Material Adverse Effect.

Section 10.1 Survival. All of the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months and shall thereafter be of no further force and effect; provided, however, that all of the covenants and obligations of the Parties contained in this Agreement, including the covenants and obligations with respect to the OMLs and the PSC, shall survive the Closing indefinitely unless they expire sooner in accordance with their express terms; provided further, however, that the Allied Parties’ representations in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4(f), 4.10, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.16, 4.17 and 4.18 and the CEI Parties’ representations in Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.6, 5.7, 5.10, 5.13, 5.14, 5.15 and 5.21 will survive the Closing indefinitely. The term during which any representation, warranty, or covenant survives hereunder is referred to as the “Survival Period.” Except as expressly provided in this paragraph, no claim for indemnification hereunder may be made after the expiration of the Survival Period. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, no claim for indemnification under this Article X may be made after the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations or other prescriptive periods provided for under applicable Law.

Section 10.2 Indemnification by the Allied Parties.

(a) The Allied Parties shall, subject to the terms hereof, jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless the CEI Parties (which term, for the purposes of this Article X shall include any of the CEI Parties’ successors) and permitted assigns (the “CEI Indemnified Parties”) from and against any liabilities, losses, claims, damages, fines, penalties, expenses (including costs of investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) (collectively, “Damages”) arising from: (i) any debts, claims, liabilities, or obligations of the Allied Parties not expressly assumed by the CEI Parties pursuant to this Agreement and due and payable or due to be performed by the Allied Parties on or prior to the Closing Date or related to facts existing or events occurring at or prior to the Closing, including any Action, whether pending or threatened, described in Allied Disclosure Schedule 4.5; (ii) any NAE Claim; (iii) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Allied Parties in Article IV hereof or in any certificate delivered by the Allied Parties pursuant to this Agreement; or (iv) any breach by any Allied Party of its covenants or obligations in any Transaction Document to be performed or complied with by such Allied Party.

(b) Pursuant to the provisions of this Article X, if any claim for indemnification is to be brought against the Allied Parties on behalf of or by right of any CEI Party, such claim shall be determined and approved by a committee of the CEI board of directors comprised of Independent Directors (the “Independent Committee”). Any settlement of any claim described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be determined and approved by the Independent Committee. Any determination or approval of the Independent Committee made pursuant to the provisions of this Article X shall be by majority vote of the members of the Independent Committee.

(c) The amount of any and all indemnifiable Damages suffered by the CEI Indemnified Parties and agreed or otherwise required to be paid by the Allied Parties shall be paid first, in cash, up to a maximum total amount equal to the sum of the Closing Cash Consideration plus the Deferred Cash Consideration, and next, by the return of a specified number of Consideration Shares. If applicable, the number of shares to be returned to the CEI Indemnified Parties shall have a fair market value equal to the aggregate amount of the indemnifiable Damages agreed or otherwise required to be paid by the Allied Parties to the extent not satisfied by payment in cash. The fair market value of such shares shall be determined by calculating the average closing price of CEI’s Common Stock over a period of thirty (30) days, counting back from the first Business Day immediately prior to the final determination of Damages hereunder.

-45-

Section 10.3 Indemnification by CEI.

(a) The CEI Parties shall, subject to the terms hereof, jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Allied Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns (the “Allied Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Damages arising from: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the CEI Parties in Article V hereof or in any certificate delivered by the CEI Parties pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) any breach by any CEI Party of its covenants or obligations in any Transaction Document.

(b) Pursuant to the provisions of this Article X, if any claim for indemnification is to be brought against the CEI Parties on behalf of or by right of any Allied Party, such claim shall be responded to by an Independent Committee. Any settlement of any claim described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be determined and approved by the Independent Committee. Any determination or approval of the Independent Committee made pursuant to the provisions of this Article X shall be by majority vote of the members of the Independent Committee.

(c) The amount of any and all Damages suffered by the Allied Indemnified Parties and agreed or otherwise required to be paid by the CEI Parties shall be paid in cash, or, at the option of the Allied Parties, may be paid in newly issued shares of Common Stock. If the Allied Parties opt to receive newly issued shares of Common Stock in lieu of receiving cash for any indemnifiable Damages, the number of shares to be issued to the Allied Indemnified Parties shall have a fair market value equal to the aggregate amount of the indemnifiable Damages agreed or otherwise required to be paid by the CEI Parties. The fair market value of such shares shall be determined by calculating the average closing price of CEI’s Common Stock over a period of thirty (30) days on the principal stock exchange on which the shares are traded (based on the aggregate trading volume on such exchange for the relevant thirty (30) day period), counting back from the first Business Day immediately prior to the final determination of Damages hereunder.

Section 10.4 Limitations on Indemnity.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the CEI Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a) unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages to the CEI Indemnified Parties with respect to such matters under Section 10.2(a) exceeds one million dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Deductible”), and then only to the extent such Damages exceed the Deductible; provided, however, the Deductible shall not apply with respect to Damages claimed as a result of any breach of Section 6.1(b) or with respect to the Actions specifically referred to in Section 10.2(a)(i). The aggregate amount of Damages payable by the Allied Parties to the CEI Indemnified Parties with respect to such matters under Section 10.2(a) (excluding the Actions specifically referred to in Section 10.2(a)(i)) shall not exceed two hundred million dollars ($200,000,000) (the “Cap”) unless the Damages arise from or otherwise relate to the breach of any of Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4(f), 4.10, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18 or 6.1(b) by the Allied Parties in which event the maximum amount for which the Allied Parties are liable shall equal the Purchase Price.

-46-

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Allied Parties shall not be liable to, or indemnify the CEI Indemnified Parties for, any Damages claimed under this Agreement that are punitive (except to the extent constituting third-party punitive claims), special, consequential, incidental, exemplary, lost profits or otherwise not actual damages. The CEI Indemnified Parties shall not use “multiple of profits” or “multiple of cash flow” or any similar valuation methodology in calculating the amount of any Damages. If the Closing occurs, this Article X constitutes the CEI Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy for any and all Damages or other claims relating to or arising from this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no Allied Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.3 unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages with respect to such matters under Section 10.3 exceeds the Deductible, and then only to the extent such Damages exceed the Deductible; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Damages payable by any CEI Party to the Allied Parties hereunder shall not exceed the Cap unless the Damages arise from or otherwise relate to the breach of any of Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.6, 5.7, 5.10, 5.13, 5.14, 5.15 or 5.21 by the CEI Parties, in which event the maximum amount for which the CEI Parties are liable shall equal the Purchase Price.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, CEI shall not be liable to, or be required to indemnify any Allied Indemnified Parties for, any Damages claimed under this Agreement that are punitive (except to the extent constituting third-party punitive claims), special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or otherwise not actual damages or (iii) that are in the nature of lost profits or any diminution in value of property or equity. The Allied Parties shall not use “multiple of profits” or “multiple of cash flow” or any similar valuation methodology in calculating the amount of any Damages. If the Closing occurs, this Article X constitutes the Allied Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy for any and all Damages or other claims relating to or arising from this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 10.5 Defense of Third-Party Claims. If the Independent Committee determines to make a claim for indemnification on behalf of the CEI Parties under Section 10.2 or any Allied Party makes a claim for indemnification under Section 10.3 (each, as applicable, an “Indemnitee”), the Independent Committee or such Allied Party, as applicable, shall notify the indemnifying Party (an “Indemnitor”) of the claim in writing promptly after receiving notice of any Action against the Indemnitee (if by a third party), describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof in reasonable detail (such written notice, an “Indemnification Notice”); provided, however, that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have caused the Damages for which the Indemnitor is obligated to be greater than such Damages would have been had the Indemnitee given the Indemnitor prompt notice hereunder. Any Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Action giving rise to an Indemnitee’s claim for indemnification at such Indemnitor’s expense, and at its option shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof by appointing a reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided further, however, that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee and shall not be recoverable from such Indemnitor under this Article X. If the Indemnitor shall control the defense of any such Action, the Indemnitor shall be entitled to settle such Action; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before entering into any settlement of an Action or ceasing to defend such Action if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, injunctive or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnitee or if such settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Action. If the Indemnitor assumes such defense, the Indemnitor shall not be liable for any amount required to be paid by the Indemnitee that exceeds, where the Indemnitee has unreasonably withheld or delayed consent in connection with the proposed compromise or settlement of a third-party Action, the amount for which that third-party Action could have been settled pursuant to that proposed compromise or settlement. In all cases, the Indemnitee shall provide its reasonable cooperation with the Indemnitor in defense of Actions, including by making employees, information and documentation reasonably available. If the Indemnitor shall not assume the defense of any such Action, the Indemnitee may defend against such Action as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that the Indemnitee may not settle any such Action without the written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if the Indemnitee is seeking or will seek indemnification hereunder with respect to such Action.

-47-

Section 10.6 Determining Damages. The amount of Damages subject to indemnification under Section 10.2 or Section 10.3 shall be calculated net of (i) any Tax Benefit inuring to the Indemnitee on account of such Damages, and (ii) any insurance proceeds or other amounts under indemnification agreements received or receivable by the Indemnitee on account of such Damages. If the Indemnitee receives a Tax Benefit on account of such Damages after an indemnification payment is made to it, the Indemnitee shall promptly pay to the Person or Persons that made such indemnification payment the amount of such Tax Benefit at such time or times as and to the extent that such Tax Benefit is realized by the Indemnitee. For purposes of this Section 10.6, “Tax Benefit” shall mean any refund of Taxes to be paid or reduction in the amount of Taxes which otherwise would be paid by the Indemnitee, in each case computed at the highest marginal tax rates applicable to the recipient of such benefit. To the extent Damages are recoverable by insurance, the Indemnitee shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain maximum recovery from such insurance. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is made by any Indemnitee with respect to Damages for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery shall be made promptly to the Person or Persons that provided such indemnity payments to such Indemnitee. The Indemnitor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee in respect of Damages indemnified by the Indemnitor. The Indemnitee shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Damages upon and after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to Damages. For Tax purposes, the Parties will treat all payments made under this Article X as adjustments to the consideration received for the Consideration Shares.

-48-

Section 10.7 Right of Setoff. To the extent that any Party is obligated to indemnify any other Party after Closing under the provisions of this Article X for Damages reduced to a monetary amount, such Party after Closing shall have the right to decrease any amount due and owing or to be due and owing under any Contract with the other Party, whether under this Agreement or any other Contract between such Parties on the one hand, and any of the other Parties or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries on the other.

Section 10.8 Limitation on Recourse; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

(a) No claim shall be brought or maintained by any Party or its respective successors or permitted assigns against any officer, director, partner, member, agent, Representative, Affiliate, equity holder, successor or permitted assign of any Party which is not otherwise expressly identified as a Party, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or obligations of any Party set forth or contained in this Agreement or any exhibit or schedule hereto or any certificate delivered hereunder.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 10.2(a) and 10.3(a), the provisions of this Article X are for the sole benefit of the Parties and nothing in this Article X, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Article X.

Section 10.9 Financing Default.

(a) If the Second Closing does not occur on or before the last day of the period ending one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing Date as a result of any default by PIC, at Allied’s request, CEI will transfer and assign to Allied without recourse to CEI, except as expressly provided in this Section 10.9, that portion of CEI’s rights that pertains to the payment of Deferred Cash Consideration, under the Share Purchase Agreement, at law, in equity or otherwise, against PIC pursuant to an instrument of transfer and assignment reasonably acceptable to CEI and Allied.

(b) If any transfer and assignment as described in Section 10.9(a) occurs, and Allied seeks to enforce specifically PIC’s obligations to purchase the Second Shares, CEI will stand ready to perform its obligations to deliver the Second Shares at the Second Closing against receipt of the consideration required to be paid by PIC pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement.

(c) If any transfer and assignment as described in Section 10.9(a) occurs, and prior to the closing of the sale of the Second Shares, the Share Purchase Agreement is terminated by Allied or by CEI at Allied’s request, then CEI will issue and sell to Allied (or its designee) at no additional cost to the Allied Parties and in full and complete satisfaction of the CEI Parties’ obligations to pay the Deferred Cash Consideration, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 62.963% of the number of the Second Shares.

-49-

(d) In the event and for so long as any Allied Party or any Affiliate thereof is actively pursuing any Action in connection with any post-Closing default by PIC with respect to the issuance and sale of the Second Shares, the CEI Parties will reasonably cooperate with such Action and will make reasonably available their personnel, records and information applicable to such matter as may be necessary in connection with prudent handling of such Action; provided, however, that the Allied Parties will reimburse the CEI Parties for the fair and reasonable out-of-pocket costs of such cooperation; provided further, however, that the CEI Parties shall have notified the Allied Parties in writing prior to incurring any material amount of costs pursuant to this Section 10.9(d).

(e) This Section 10.9 sets out the Allied Parties’ sole and exclusive remedies should the CEI Parties default under Section 2.2(b) as a result of any default by PIC to take up, purchase and pay for the Second Shares as prescribed by the Share Purchase Agreement. In the event that CEI is not able to (i) make the assignment pursuant to Section 10.9(a) (or the assignment pursuant to Section 10.9(a) is determined by a Governmental Authority to be unenforceable) or (ii) transfer the requisite number of Second Shares pursuant to Section 10.9(c), then Allied may require (at Allied’s sole cost) CEI to pursue against PIC any and all claims available to CEI at law or in equity, including an award of damages unless and only to the extent that CEI is advised by counsel that the bringing of a legal action could reasonably be expected to result in judicial sanction against CEI or its counsel.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, and for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 10.9 shall not apply to the Deferred Adjustment Amount portion of the Deferred Cash Consideration.

8.1 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Second Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for a period of one (1) year after the Second Closing Date.

8.2 Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened, and the costs of enforcement hereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents.

(b) The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all Losses to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Investor under the Transaction Documents.

8.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any action, Proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8.2, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing and the Indemnifying Person shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. 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 retention of such counsel or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Indemnified Person, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Indemnifying Person shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Proceeding.

8.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) No party hereto will have any liability for indemnification under this Section 8 in excess of the total combined value of the First Purchase Price and the Second Purchase Price.

(b) NO INDEMNIFYING PERSON SHALL BE LIABLE FOR PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, LOST PROFITS OR DAMAGES OTHER THAN ACTUAL DAMAGES SUFFERED BY ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO ANY TERM OR THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OTHER LAW OR OTHERWISE AND WHETHER OR NOT ARISING FROM THE OTHER PERSON’S OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES’ SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS WAIVER WILL NOT LIMIT ANY LIABILITY OF AN INDEMNIFYING PERSON TO INDEMNIFY ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON FOR ANY LOSS ARISING FROM DAMAGES OF ANY KIND THAT THE INDEMNIFIED PERSON IS REQUIRED TO PAY TO ANY THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING ANY GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY.

9.2 Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party hereto, it being understood that both parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by email delivery of a portable document format, or “.pdf” data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party hereto executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

2.1 Right of First Refusal. Each of the Allied Parties hereby grants to CEI and CEI’s permitted successors and assigns a right of first refusal (the “Right of First Refusal”) with respect to any and all licenses, leases and other contract rights for the exploration and/or production of oil and/or natural gas currently held by or hereafter acquired by or arising and inuring to any of the Allied Parties or any of their Affiliates (each, a “Subject Asset”) that any of the Allied Parties offers for sale, transfer, license or other disposition (including, without limitation, by (i) execution of a partnership agreement or any other joint venture documentation unless the Subject Asset was acquired by the Allied Party for the purpose of transferring it into the partnership or joint venture; or (ii) execution of a production sharing contract, a farm-in or farm-out agreement, an exploration agreement, a participation agreement, or an exchange agreement), other than such sales that occur in the ordinary course of business (a “Restricted Sale”), on the following terms and conditions:

2.2 Purchase Notice. If, at any time during the period beginning on the Effective Date and continuing until seven years and six months from the date thereof, any of the Allied Parties desires to consummate a Restricted Sale, it shall negotiate with the prospective buyer (“Prospective Buyer”) a bona fide definitive purchase and sale agreement or other appropriate agreement for the transfer, license or other disposition (a “Final PSA”) to purchase the Subject Asset, or any part thereof. Within fourteen (14) days after the commencement of such negotiations, the applicable Allied Party shall notify CEI that such negotiations are taking place. Upon negotiating the Final PSA, the applicable Allied Party shall not execute such Final PSA without first extending an offer to purchase such Subject Asset to CEI on substantially the same terms as the Prospective Buyer, by sending to CEI a notice indicating its intention to sell the Subject Asset, which notice shall include an accurate and complete copy of such Final PSA, including the proposed purchase price of the Subject Asset, and the Prospective Buyer’s name and address (the “Purchase Notice”). The applicable Allied Party shall also provide CEI with access to the Subject Asset and any information reasonably requested by CEI regarding the Subject Asset. Within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Purchase Notice, CEI shall advise the applicable Allied Party in writing as to whether CEI desires to purchase the Subject Asset on the terms set forth in the Final PSA. If CEI elects not to purchase the Subject Asset on the terms set forth in the Final PSA or fails to respond to the Purchase Notice within such thirty (30) day period, the applicable Allied Party shall be free to proceed to execute such Final PSA with the Prospective Buyer in accordance with Section 2.3. If CEI elects to purchase the Subject Asset on the terms set forth in the Final PSA, CEI shall deliver to the applicable Allied Party a written notice indicating its desire to purchase the Subject Asset, and the applicable Allied Party and CEI shall sign a final purchase and sale agreement reflecting the terms of the Final PSA.

G-3

2.3 Sale to Other Parties. If (i) CEI fails to respond to the Purchase Notice within the thirty (30) day period described in Section 2.2, or (ii) CEI elects not to purchase the Subject Asset on the terms set forth in the Final PSA, the applicable Allied Party shall be free to execute the Final PSA and sell the Subject Asset to the Prospective Buyer pursuant thereto (and not on any other terms); provided that the Subject Asset must be purchased within six (6) months after the date on which the event in clause (i) or (ii) above occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the material terms of the Restricted Sale are other than the terms of the Final PSA, including, without limitation, any decrease in the price of the Subject Asset, the Restricted Sale may not proceed, and the applicable Allied Party shall notify CEI in writing and the Parties shall proceed in accordance with Section 2.2 and Section 2.3 as if CEI were provided a new Purchase Notice.

2.4 Time Limit for Sale. In the event the Subject Asset is not sold to the Prospective Buyer within six (6) months after the date on which the event in Section 2.3(i) or 2.3(ii) occurred, then any subsequent Restricted Sale with the Prospective Buyer (or any other Person) must once again be submitted to CEI in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 and Section 2.3. The Right of First Refusal is a continuing right, and it applies to all sales of Subject Assets.

2.5 Affiliate Purchases or Sales. In the event that any Affiliate of an Allied Party desires to consummate a sale that would otherwise constitute a Restricted Sale (an “Affiliate Restricted Sale”), the Allied Party whose Affiliate is engaging in the Affiliate Restricted Sale shall cause such Affiliate to conduct such Affiliate Restricted Sale in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that an Affiliate Restricted Sale is proposed to be made by an Affiliate in which an Allied Party owns less than 100% of the proposing Affiliate, or by an Affiliate in which a wholly owned Affiliate of an Allied Party owns less than 100% of the proposing Affiliate, the applicable Allied Party, or the applicable wholly owned Affiliate, as the case may be, shall use it reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent of the other holders of equity interests in the proposing Affiliate to give CEI a Right of First Refusal over the Affiliate Restricted Sale; provided, however, that no Allied Party and none of its Affiliates shall be required to pay consideration in exchange for any such consent. In the event such consent is not obtained, then the sale shall not be construed as an Affiliate Restricted Sale hereunder.

2.6 Prohibition Under Applicable Law. The parties understand and agree that, notwithstanding any other provision herein, there shall be no Right of First Refusal, and such sale, transfer, license or disposition shall not be a Restricted Sale hereunder to the extent that such sale, transfer, license or disposition to CEI would: (i) result in the breach or violation of the license, lease or contract right being sold, transferred, licensed or otherwise disposed; (ii) be illegal under the law applicable to the transaction; or (iii) be prohibited by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the transaction.

G-4

ARTICLE III.
CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

3.1 Corporate Opportunities. During the period beginning on the Effective Date and continuing until seven years and six months from the date thereof, each of the Allied Parties hereby agrees that with respect to any opportunities to acquire interests in any and all licenses, leases and other contract rights for the exploration and/or production of oil and/or natural gas in Africa that may become available to any of the Allied Parties or any of their Affiliates, whether by (i) investing in or acquiring a Person whose business is or includes, directly or indirectly, an African Oil & Gas Business, in whole or in part, (ii) acquiring assets of an African Oil & Gas Business or (iii) undertaking the development of a project that would constitute an African Oil & Gas Business (a “Restricted Opportunity”), the Allied Parties will promptly provide notice thereof to CEI in accordance with Section 3.2 below.

3.2 Notice. If, at any time any of the Allied Parties becomes aware of or proposes to pursue a Restricted Opportunity not otherwise generally a matter of public knowledge, the applicable Allied Party shall notify CEI of the opportunity in writing within 15 days of learning of such opportunity, or within such shorter reasonable time as may be required by the terms of the Restricted Opportunity,. The notification shall contain a summary of the Restricted Opportunity, including at a minimum the name of any potential counterparty; an overview of the investment, business, asset or project; the relevant locations; all deadlines and other relevant timelines; and the estimated consideration or investment. The Allied Parties shall only be required to provide the information listed in the preceding sentence to the extent such information is available to the applicable Allied Party and to the extent such information is not subject to confidentiality obligations entered into by the applicable Allied Party to obtain such information or access to the Restricted Opportunity; provided, however, the applicable Allied Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such further information as CEI may reasonably request or to obtain sufficient exceptions to any such confidentiality obligations to allow CEI to receive such information. CEI shall notify the informing Allied Party in writing within 30 days after receipt of such notice, or such shorter reasonable time period as may be required by the terms of the Restricted Opportunity, of its intention whether or not to pursue such opportunity. If CEI elects not to pursue such Restricted Opportunity, the Allied Parties shall have the right to pursue such opportunity for their own account, including through a joint venture with one or more third parties. In the event CEI later determines to abandon such Restricted Opportunity, it shall promptly notify Allied, which shall then have the right to pursue such opportunity for its, or its Affiliates’ own account, including through a joint venture with one or more third parties.

3.3 Affiliate Opportunities.

(a) In the event that a Restricted Opportunity is proposed to be invested in, acquired or undertaken by an Affiliate in which an Allied Party owns less than 100% of the proposing Affiliate, or by an Affiliate in which a wholly owned Affiliate of an Allied Party owns less than 100% of the proposing Affiliate, the applicable Allied Party, or the applicable wholly owned Affiliate, as the case may be, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent of the other holders of equity interests in the proposing Affiliate to give CEI the right to pursue such Restricted Opportunity in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that no Allied Party and none of its Affiliates shall be required to pay consideration in exchange for any such consent. In the event such consent is not obtained, then the proposed investment, acquisition or undertaking shall not be construed as a Restricted Opportunity hereunder.

G-5

(b) Allied represents and warrants that its 60% interest in Alliance Oil Producing Company Nigeria Limited is the only Affiliate or other entity engaged in African Oil & Gas Business activities in which it holds less than 100% of the equity interests and agrees that from and after the Effective Date, it will not form any Affiliate, joint venture, partnership or other entity for the purpose of investing in, acquiring or undertaking, directly or indirectly, a Restricted Opportunity; provided, however, that Allied shall be permitted to form a joint venture for the purpose of pursuing a Restricted Opportunity that has been rejected by CEI in accordance with Section 3.2 above. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the opportunity that the Allied Parties and CEI are jointly pursuing in the Republic of Ghana as of the date hereof shall not be construed as a Restricted Opportunity hereunder.

3.4 Prohibition Under Applicable Law. The parties understand and agree that, notwithstanding any other provision herein, an opportunity shall not be a Restricted Opportunity hereunder to the extent CEI’s participation in such opportunity would: (i) result in the breach or violation of the license, lease or contract right being sold, transferred, licensed or otherwise disposed; (ii) be illegal under the law applicable to the transaction; or (iii) be prohibited by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the transaction.

ARTICLE IV.
MISCELLANEOUS

4.1 Notices.

4.2 Amendments; Waivers; No Additional Consideration. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed by all of the Parties.

4.3 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fulfilled to the extent possible.

4.5 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (a) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (b) is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies.

4.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Texas regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

Allied, CINL, and CPL are hereinafter referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

WHEREAS:

(A)	On June 3, 1992, Allied was awarded an Oil Prospecting Licence with respect to Block 210 (“OPL 210”), of which an interest of two and one-half percent (2.5%) was subsequently assigned by Allied to Camac International (Nigeria) Limited on September 30, 1992;

(D)

By an Agreement Novating Production Sharing Contract dated April 7, 2010, entered into by and among Allied, CINL, CPL and NAE, Allied and CINL novated to CPL the beneficial ownership of their respective interests in and certain rights and obligations under the PSC in relation to the Oyo field (the “First Novation”), subject to the terms and conditions contained therein;

I-2

(E)

By a Second Agreement Novating Production Sharing Contract dated February 15, 2011, entered into by and among Allied, CINL, CPL and NAE, Allied and CINL novated to CPL the beneficial ownership of their respective interests in and certain rights and obligations under the PSC in relation to the OMLs under the PSC that were not novated pursuant to the First Novation (the “Second Novation”), subject to the terms and conditions contained therein;

(F)	By a Deed of Novation dated June 29, 2012, entered into by and among Allied, CINL, CPL and NAE, NAE novated to Allied all of its interests in, and all of its rights and obligations under, the PSC (the “NAE Novation”), subject to the terms and conditions contained therein;

(G)

Pursuant to a Transfer Agreement, dated November 19, 2013, by and among Allied, CINL, CAMAC Energy Holdings Limited, CPL, and CAMAC Energy Inc. (the “Transfer Agreement”), Allied agreed to sell and CPL agreed to purchase the remainder of Allied’s interest under the PSC, such interest being the interest acquired by Allied pursuant to the NAE Novation, giving CPL the remaining rights and obligations under the PSC, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein;

(H)	Allied wishes to novate to CPL all of its interests in and all rights and obligations in under the PSC that were not heretofore novated pursuant to the First Novation and Second Novation, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth (the “Third Novated Interest”); and

(I)	Allied wishes to be released from, and CPL wishes to assume all the liabilities and perform the obligations of Allied under the PSC on the terms set out herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

1.	Unless the context otherwise requires, words and expressions defined in the Transfer Agreement shall have the same meaning when used in this Agreement.

The Parties severally agree that with effect from the Closing, as such term is defined under the Transfer Agreement (the “Effective Date”), and except as otherwise provided in clause 4 of this Deed of Novation and in the Transfer Agreement and subject to the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements in the Transfer Agreement.

2.1

Allied assigns to CPL all of Allied’s rights, liabilities, duties, covenants, undertakings, and other obligations contained in the PSC.

2.2

CPL undertakes and covenants, as a separate obligation with Allied and CINL, to assume, observe, perform, discharge and be bound by all liabilities and obligations arising under the PSC in the place of Allied and be entitled to all the rights and benefits therein in the place of Allied.

2.4

CPL undertakes, in respect of the Third Novated Interest to indemnify fully and hold harmless Allied and CINL in respect of any claims, proceedings, injury, costs (including legal costs), loss, damage or expense arising from CPL’s obligations under the PSC from and after the Effective Date for which Allied would have been liable but for the release and discharge referred to in sub-clause 2.3 of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, CPL shall also be liable to Allied and CINL for such obligations related to the Third Novated Interest to the extent provided for in the Transfer Agreement.

2.5

CPL is hereby designated and agrees to act as the Contracting Operator (as defined in the PSC) in the place of Allied under the PSC. Accordingly, all references to the Contracting Operator in the PSC shall be read as references to CPL.

2.6

Allied shall be free and clear from all liabilities, responsibilities and obligations in respect of the Third Novated Interest and therefore each of CINL and CPL agrees that the provisions of Article 17.2 of the PSC shall not apply to Allied and to the Transactions.

2.7

Allied and CINL shall indemnify and hold CPL harmless against all losses, damages, injuries, expenses, and actions of whatever kind and nature (“Damages”) suffered by it where such Damages are as the result of the failure of Allied and/or CINL to notify the Department of Petroleum Resources (“DPR”) of the Transactions.

I-4

Nothing contained herein shall prejudice the rights, obligations and liabilities of CINL, CPL and Allied, or any other party, under the Transfer Agreement or under any other agreement between them in respect of the Third Novated Interest. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sentence shall not negate the provisions of sub-clause 2.6 above. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that anything stated in this Agreement is contrary to or inconsistent with the terms of the Transfer Agreement, the terms of the Transfer Agreement shall prevail.

4.	The Parties hereby agree and confirm that, notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement or the PSC, except as otherwise modified below:

4.1

The terms and conditions of Articles 7.2, 7.3(b), 8.1(a), 8.1(c), 8.3, 11 and 14.3 of the PSC shall remain unaffected by this Agreement and Allied and CINL shall retain their rights and obligations under those Articles.

4.4

Nothing contained in Article 11 shall be construed to pass title to the “First Party” following cost recovery for any equipment or movable property purchased by the Contractor or to extinguish Contractor’s title to or right to use any such equipment or property, in each case to the extent such equipment or property is capable legally and physically of being removed from the seabed or otherwise from within the Lease area.

4.5

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement all provisions of the PSC and all agreements deriving therefrom shall continue to be in full force and effect and binding on Allied, CINL and CPL, insofar as those agreements were in full force and effect and binding on the Parties immediately prior to the date hereof. With effect from the Closing, this Agreement, the First Novation, the Second Novation, the NAE Novation, and the PSC shall be read and construed as one document.

6.	This Agreement shall be treated as constituting all actions, confirmations, consents and undertakings required of each NAE, Allied, CINL and CPL under the PSC or any agreement deriving therefrom, for the purposes of giving effect to the transfer to CPL of the Transferred Interest.

Allied shall be solely responsible for the payment in a timely fashion of, and undertakes to pay, all and any applicable Taxes and stamp duty (including any interest, penalties and/or fines) payable on or in connection with the execution or enforcement of this Agreement and all documents executed pursuant to this Agreement and the assignment of the Transferred Interest and shall fully indemnify each of the other Parties in respect of any costs (including legal costs), expenses, loss or damage occasioned by its failure to pay (or any delay in paying) any such applicable Taxes and/or stamp duty.

8.	Each reference in this Agreement to the PSC and/or any agreement deriving therefrom shall be construed and shall have effect as a reference to the same as it may have been supplemental and/or amended and/or novated prior to the date hereof.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the Parties on separate counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but which together shall constitute one agreement, with the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were upon a single engrossment of this Agreement. No counterpart shall be effective until each Party has executed at least one counterpart.

10.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Nigerian Law. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination which cannot be amicably resolved between the Parties, shall be settled by arbitration under the provisions of Article 23 of the PSC.

ARTICLE II
REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.01 Registration.

(a) (i) Deadline to Go Effective. As soon as practicable following the Second Closing, but in any event within 60 days of the Second Closing Date, CEI shall prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act to permit the resale of the Registrable Securities from time to time, including as permitted by Rule 415 with respect to all of the Registrable Securities (the “Registration Statement”). CEI shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective no later than 135 days following the Second Closing Date. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be on Form S-3 (except if CEI is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith). CEI will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.01 to be continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all such Registrable Securities are sold by Allied or (ii) the date when such Registrable Securities become eligible for resale without restriction (including, but not limited to, volume limitations) under Rule 144(k) (or any similar provision then in force) under the Securities Act (the “Effectiveness Period”). The Registration Statement when declared effective (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) shall comply as to form with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. As provided in Section 2.01(d) of this Agreement, CEI shall be required to file and maintain the effectiveness of as many registration statements as are necessary to register all of the Registrable Securities.

(ii) Liquidated Damages. If any Consideration Shares are not covered by the Registration Statement contemplated by Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement (a “Registration Default”) within two years of the Second Closing Date (the “Liquidated Damages Date”), then Allied shall be entitled to a payment with respect to the Consideration Shares that are not covered by such Registration Statement, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, of 0.25% of the Liquidated Damages Multiplier for each period of 30 consecutive days following the Liquidated Damages Date during which a Registration Default continues (the “Liquidated Damages”); provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Liquidated Damages payable by CEI to Allied under this Agreement shall in no event exceed $10,000,000. The Liquidated Damages payable pursuant to this Section 2.1(a)(ii) shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days of the end of each such 30-day period. Any Liquidated Damages shall be paid at Allied’s election: (i) in cash; or (ii) in shares of additional Common Stock. Upon any issuance of Common Stock as Liquidated Damages, CEI shall promptly prepare and file an amendment to the Registration Statement prior to its effectiveness adding the shares of such Common Stock to the Registration Statement as additional Registrable Securities. The determination of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued as Liquidated Damages shall be based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock. As soon as practicable following the date that the Registration Statement becomes effective, but in any event within two Business Days of such date, CEI shall provide the Holders with written notice of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

J-6

(b) Delay Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, CEI may, upon written notice to any Selling Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, suspend such Selling Holder’s use of any prospectus which is a part of the Registration Statement (in which event the Selling Holder shall discontinue sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, but such Selling Holder may settle any such sales of Registrable Securities) if (i) CEI is pursuing an acquisition, merger, reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction and CEI determines in good faith that CEI’s ability to pursue or consummate such a transaction would be materially adversely affected by any required disclosure of such transaction in the Registration Statement or (ii) CEI has experienced some other material non-public event the disclosure of which at such time, in the good faith judgment of CEI, would materially adversely affect CEI; provided, however, in no event shall a Holder be suspended for a period that exceeds an aggregate of 30 days in any 90- day period or 90 days in any 365-day period. Upon disclosure of such information or the termination of the condition described above, CEI shall provide prompt notice to the Selling Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has put into effect and shall take such other actions to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as contemplated in this Agreement.

(c) Additional Rights to Liquidated Damages. If (i) the Holders are prohibited from selling their Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement as a result of a suspension pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement in excess of the periods permitted therein or (ii) the Registration Statement is filed and declared effective but, during the Effectiveness Period, shall thereafter cease to be effective or fail to be usable for its intended purpose without being succeeded by a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, a supplement to the prospectus or a report filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, then, until the suspension is lifted or a post-effective amendment, supplement or report is filed with the Commission, but not including any day on which a suspension is lifted or such amendment, supplement or report is filed and declared effective, if applicable, CEI shall owe the Holders an amount equal to the Liquidated Damages for each period of 30 consecutive days during which the suspension continues beyond the (x) period permitted under Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement or (y) day after the Registration Statement ceased to be effective or failed to be useable for its intended purposes, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty; provided, however, and subject to Section 2.01(a)(ii) of this Agreement, CEI shall not be required to pay Liquidated Damages under this Section 2.01(c) with respect to Consideration Shares not covered by a Registration Statement at the date a suspension commences. For the purposes of this Section 2.01(c), a suspension shall be deemed lifted on the date that notice that the suspension has been lifted is delivered to the Holders pursuant to Section 3.01 of this Agreement.

(d) Claw-Back of Registrable Securities. CEI may exclude Registrable Securities from the Registration Statement if required by the Commission in order for the Commission to declare the Registration Statement effective; provided, however, that CEI will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a subsequent Registration Statement that includes the Registrable Securities excluded from the initial Registration Statement at such time as it may do so in accordance with the Securities Act as interpreted by the Commission, but in any event within six months of the effective date of the preceding Registration Statement, and CEI will use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such Registration Statement declared effective within a reasonable period of time after such filing. CEI shall not be required to pay any Liquidated Damages in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) of this Agreement for any Registrable Securities that are not registered pursuant to this Section 2.02(d). The formula described in Section 2.02(b) shall determine the number of Registrable Securities that are excluded under this Section 2.01(c) vis-à-vis the number of shares of Common Stock of PIC that are excluded under any registration statement, except that the maximum number of shares of Common Stock to be registered under any registration statement shall be determined by the Commission’s requirements instead of the determination by a Managing Underwriter or Underwriters.

J-7

(e) No Obligation For Primary Offering By Holders. If the Commission deems the registration of any Registrable Securities to be a primary offering by CEI or the Holders, and the Commission prohibits the use of Rule 415 to sell Registrable Securities on a delayed or continuous basis, then Allied shall not be obligated to commit to any such primary offering to allow the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission.

Section 2.02 Piggyback Rights.

(a) Participation. If at any time CEI proposes to file (i) a prospectus supplement to an effective shelf registration statement, other than the Registration Statement contemplated by Section 2.01 of this Agreement, or (ii) a registration statement, other than a shelf registration statement, in either case, for the sale of Common Stock in an Underwritten Offering for its own account, then as soon as practicable but not less than three Business Days prior to the filing of (x) any preliminary prospectus supplement relating to such Underwritten Offering pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, (y) the prospectus supplement relating to such Underwritten Offering pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (if no preliminary prospectus supplement is used) or (z) such registration statement, as the case may be, then CEI shall give notice (including, but not limited to, notification by electronic mail) of such proposed Underwritten Offering to the Holders and such notice shall offer the Holders the opportunity to include in such Underwritten Offering such number of Registrable Securities (the “Included Registrable Securities”) as each such Holder may request in writing; provided, however, that if CEI has been advised by the Managing Underwriter that the inclusion of Registrable Securities for sale for the benefit of the Holders will have a material adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock in the Underwritten Offering, then the amount of Registrable Securities to be offered for the account of Holders shall be determined based on the provisions of Section 2.02(b) of this Agreement. The notice required to be provided in this Section 2.02(a) to Holders shall be provided on a Business Day pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof and receipt of such notice shall be confirmed by such Holder. Each such Holder shall then have three Business Days after receiving such notice to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering, except that such Holder shall have one Business Day after such Holder confirms receipt of the notice to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering in the case of a “bought deal”, “registered direct offering” or “overnight transaction” where no preliminary prospectus is used. If no request for inclusion from a Holder is received within the specified time, such Holder shall have no further right to participate in such Underwritten Offering. If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to undertake an Underwritten Offering and prior to the closing of such Underwritten Offering, CEI shall determine for any reason not to undertake or to delay such Underwritten Offering, CEI may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Selling Holders and, (x) in the case of a determination not to undertake such Underwritten Offering, shall be relieved of its obligation to sell any Included Registrable Securities in connection with such terminated Underwritten Offering, and (y) in the case of a determination to delay such Underwritten Offering, shall be permitted to delay offering any Included Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in the Underwritten Offering. Any Selling Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Selling Holder’s request for inclusion of such Selling Holder’s Registrable Securities in such offering by giving written notice to CEI of such withdrawal up to and including the time of pricing of such offering. No Holder shall be entitiled to participate in any such Underwritten Offering under this Section 2.02(a) unless such Holder (together with any Affiliate of such Holder) participating therein held at least $10,000,000 of Common Stock as of the Closing Date, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Holder may deliver written notice (an “Opt Out Notice”) to CEI requesting that such Holder not receive notice from CEI of any proposed Underwritten Offering; provided, however, that such Holder may later revoke any such notice.

J-8

(b) Priority of Rights. If the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters of any proposed Underwritten Offering of Common Stock included in an Underwritten Offering involving Included Registrable Securities advises CEI, or CEI reasonably determines, that the total amount of Common Stock that the Selling Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a material adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock offered or the market for the Common Stock, then the Common Stock to be included in such Underwritten Offering shall include the number of Registrable Securities that such Managing Underwriter or Underwriters advises CEI, or CEI reasonably determines, can be sold without having such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated (i) first, to CEI and (ii) second, to the Selling Holders and other Persons who have requested participation in such Underwritten Offering. The pro rata allocations for each such Selling Holder or other Person shall be the product of (a) (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters have determined can be sold in such Underwritten Offering under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence multiplied by (b) the fraction derived by dividing (x) the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Selling Holder following the Second Closing by (y) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned following the Second Closing Date by all Selling Holders and other Persons participating in the Underwritten Offering. All participating Selling Holders shall have the opportunity to share pro rata that portion of such priority allocable to any Selling Holder(s) not so participating.

Section 2.03 Underwritten Offering.

(a) Request for Underwritten Offering. Any one or more Holders that collectively hold greater than $20,000,000 of Registrable Securities, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, may deliver written notice to CEI that such Holders wish to dispose of an aggregate of at least $20,000,000 of Registrable Securities, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, in an Underwritten Offering. Upon receipt of any such written request, CEI shall retain underwriters reasonably acceptable to the Holders, effect such sale through an Underwritten Offering, including entering into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters, which shall include, among other provisions, indemnities to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.08, and take all reasonable actions as are requested by the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, including management’s participation in any roadshow or similar marketing effort on behalf of any such Holder. Holders requesting an Underwritten Offering shall be responsible for all Selling Expenses. The parties acknowledge that CEI shall not be required to prepay any Selling Expenses on behalf of the requesting Holders and may discontinue any actions required to be taken hereby and shall not incur any penalty hereunder for such discontinuation if such Selling Expenses are not promptly paid when due by the requesting Holders. The parties further agree that CEI shall be entitled to obtain written agreement from the requesting Holders to pay any and all such Selling Expenses from the proceeds of the sales of such securities (i.e., from the flow of funds at the closing of such offering) prior to initiating any such Underwritten Offering.

J-9

(b) General Procedures. In connection with any Underwritten Offering under this Agreement or the PIC Registration Rights Agreement, CEI shall be entitled to select the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters with the consent of the Person or Persons holding a majority of the shares of Common Stock of all Holders, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and if PIC is also registering shares of Common Stock in such Underwritten Offering, with the consent of PIC, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In connection with an Underwritten Offering contemplated by this Agreement in which a Selling Holder participates, CEI shall be obligated to enter into an underwriting agreement that contains such representations, covenants, indemnities and other rights and obligations as are customary in underwriting agreements for firm commitment offerings of securities. No Selling Holder may participate in such Underwritten Offering unless such Selling Holder agrees to sell its Registrable Securities on the basis provided in such underwriting agreement and completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreement. Each Selling Holder may, at its option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, CEI to and for the benefit of such underwriters also be made to and for such Selling Holder’s benefit and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement also be conditions precedent to its obligations. No Selling Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with CEI or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Selling Holder and its ownership of the securities being registered on its behalf, its intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law. If any Selling Holder disapproves of the terms of an underwriting, such Selling Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by notice to CEI and the Managing Underwriter; provided, however, that such withdrawal must be made up to and including the time of pricing of such Underwritten Offering.

Section 2.04 Sale Procedures. In connection with its obligations under this Article II, CEI will, as expeditiously as possible:

(a) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for the Effectiveness Period and as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by the Registration Statement;

(b) if a prospectus supplement will be used in connection with the marketing of an Underwritten Offering from the Registration Statement and the Managing Underwriter at any time shall notify CEI in writing that, in the sole judgment of such Managing Underwriter, inclusion of detailed information to be used in such prospectus supplement is of material importance to the success of the Underwritten Offering of such Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to include such information in such prospectus supplement;

(e) promptly notify each Selling Holder and each underwriter of Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered by any of them under the Securities Act, of (i) the filing of the Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement or any prospectus or prospectus supplement to be used in connection therewith, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and, with respect to such Registration Statement or any other registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective; and (ii) any written comments from the Commission with respect to any filing referred to in clause (i) and any written request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or any other registration statement or any prospectus or prospectus supplement thereto;

Following the provision of such notice, CEI agrees to as promptly as practicable amend or supplement the prospectus or prospectus supplement or take other appropriate action so that the prospectus or prospectus supplement does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing and to take such other action as is necessary to remove a stop order, suspension, threat thereof or proceedings related thereto;

J-11

(i) otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158;

(j) make available to the appropriate representatives of the Managing Underwriter and Selling Holders access to such information and CEI personnel as is reasonable and customary to enable such parties to establish a due diligence defense under the Securities Act; provided, however, that CEI need not disclose any such information to any such representative unless and until such representative has entered into or is otherwise subject to a confidentiality agreement with CEI satisfactory to CEI;

(k) cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement to be listed on each securities exchange or nationally recognized quotation system on which similar securities issued by CEI are then listed;

J-12

(m) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(n) enter into customary agreements and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the Selling Holders or the underwriters, if any, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; and

In addition, at any Holder’s request, CEI will furnish to such Holder, on the date of the effectiveness of any Holder Underwriter Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as such Holder may reasonably request, (i) a letter, dated such date, from CEI’s independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to such Holder, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing CEI for purposes of such Holder Underwriter Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, including a standard “10b-5” statement of negative assurance for such offering, addressed to such Holder. CEI will also permit legal counsel to such Holder to review and comment upon any such Holder Underwriter Registration Statement at least five Business Days prior to its filing with the Commission and all amendments and supplements to any such Holder Underwriter Registration Statement within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the Commission and not file any Holder Underwriter Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto in a form to which such Holder’s legal counsel reasonably objects.

Each Selling Holder, upon receipt of notice from CEI of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.04(f) of this Agreement, shall forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registrable Securities until such Selling Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.04(f) of this Agreement or until it is advised in writing by CEI that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if so directed by CEI, such Selling Holder will, or will request the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to deliver to CEI (at CEI’s expense) all copies in their possession or control, other than permanent file copies then in such Selling Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

If requested by Allied, CEI shall: (i) as soon as practicable incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) as soon as practicable make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) as soon as practicable, supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement.

CEI shall have no obligation to include in the Registration Statement Common Stock of a Holder, or in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.02 of this Agreement, Common Stock of a Selling Holder, who has failed to timely furnish such information that, in the opinion of counsel to CEI, is reasonably required in order for the registration statement or prospectus supplement, as applicable, to comply with the Securities Act.

Section 2.06 Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities. For a period of 365 days from the Second Closing Date, each Holder of Registrable Securities who is included in the Registration Statement agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of the Registrable Securities during the 30-day period following completion of an Underwritten Offering of equity securities by CEI, whether for its own account or for the account of PIC (except as provided in this Section 2.06); provided, however, that the duration of the foregoing restrictions shall be no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters on the officers or directors or any other stockholder of CEI on whom a restriction is imposed in connection with such public offering. In addition, except in the case of primary Underwritten Offerings of equity offerings by CEI, the provisions of this Section 2.06 shall not apply with respect to a Holder that (a) owns less than $10,000,000 of Common Stock, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, (b) has delivered an Opt Out Notice to CEI pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof or (c) has submitted a notice requesting the inclusion of Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.02 or Section 2.03(a) hereof but is unable to do so as a result of the priority provisions contained in Section 2.02(b) hereof.

In the event of an offering of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, CEI will indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Holder thereunder, its directors and officers, and each underwriter, pursuant to the applicable underwriting agreement with such underwriter, of Registrable Securities thereunder and each Person, if any, who controls such Selling Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and its directors and officers, against any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”), joint or several, to which such Selling Holder, director, officer, underwriter or controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement, any preliminary prospectus, free writing prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and will reimburse each such Selling Holder, its directors and officers, each such underwriter and each such controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss or actions or proceedings; provided, however, that CEI will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in strict conformity with information furnished by such Selling Holder, its directors or officers or any underwriter or controlling Person in writing specifically for use in the Registration Statement or such other registration statement, or prospectus supplement, as applicable. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Selling Holder or any such Selling Holder, its directors or officers or any underwriter or controlling Person, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Selling Holder.

(b) By Each Selling Holder. Each Selling Holder agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless CEI, its directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls CEI within the meaning of the Securities Act or of the Exchange Act, and its directors and officers, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from CEI to the Selling Holders, but only with respect to information regarding such Selling Holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Selling Holder expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement or any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto; provided, however, that the liability of each Selling Holder shall not be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of any Selling Expenses) received by such Selling Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification.

J-15

(c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party other than under this Section 2.08. In any action brought against any indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 2.08 for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected; provided, however, that, (i) if the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party or (ii) if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and counsel to the indemnified party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other reasonable expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no indemnifying party shall settle any action brought against an indemnified party with respect to which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the indemnified party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete and unconditional release from all liability of, the indemnified party. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no indemnified party shall settle any action brought against it with respect to which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the indemnifying party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete and unconditional release from all liability of, the indemnifying party.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.08 is held by a court or government agency of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to any indemnified party or is insufficient to hold them harmless in respect of any Losses, then each such indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of such indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall such Selling Holder be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the dollar amount of proceeds (net of Selling Expenses) received by such Selling Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification. The relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party 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 has been made by, or relates to, information supplied by such party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this paragraph were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be deemed to include any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any Loss which is the subject of this paragraph. 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 is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

J-16

(e) Other Indemnification. The provisions of this Section 2.08 shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution which an indemnified party may have pursuant to law, equity, contract or otherwise.

Section 2.09 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, CEI agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information regarding CEI available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times from and after the date hereof;

(b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of CEI under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at all times from and after the date hereof; and

(c) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish, unless otherwise not available at no charge by access electronically to the Commission’s ▇▇▇▇▇ filing system, to such Holder forthwith upon request a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of CEI, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without registration.

Section 2.10 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause CEI to register Registrable Securities granted to Allied by CEI under this Article II may be transferred or assigned by Allied to one or more transferee(s) or assignee(s) of such Registrable Securities; provided, however, that, (a) unless such transferee is an Affiliate of Allied, each such transferee or assignee holds as a result of and at the date of transfer or assignment Registrable Securities representing at least $10,000,000 of the Registrable Securities, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, (b) CEI is given written notice prior to any such transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of each such transferee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned and (c) each such transferee assumes in writing responsibility for its portion of the obligations of Allied under this Agreement.

J-17

Section 2.11 Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date hereof, CEI shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, (a) enter into any agreement with any current or future holder of any securities of CEI that would allow such current or future holder to require CEI to include securities in any registration statement filed by CEI on a basis that is superior in any way to the piggyback rights granted to Allied hereunder or (b) grant registration rights to any other Person that would be superior to Allied’s registration rights hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.11 or elsewhere herein will in any way be construed to prohibit CEI from entering into and performing the PIC Registration Rights Agreement.

ARTICLE III

Section 3.05 Specific Performance. Damages in the event of breach of this Agreement by a party hereto may be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain, and it is therefore agreed that each party, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, will have the right to an injunction or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, enjoining any such breach, and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof, and each of the parties hereto hereby waives any and all defenses it may have on the ground of lack of jurisdiction or competence of the court to grant such an injunction or other equitable relief.

2. Subordination.

2.1 Note Subordinated to Senior Indebtedness.

This Section 2 will constitute a continuing offer to all Persons who become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are made obligees under this Section 2 and they and each of them may enforce its provisions. The Holder agrees to execute and deliver, at the request of the Company, separate subordination agreements with holders of Senior Indebtedness, or their respective agents, trustees or other representatives, as may reasonably be requested by any such Person to provide additional terms of subordination that are reasonable and customary features of instruments evidencing or creating funded indebtedness intended to be fully and completely subordinated in right of payment to referenced senior indebtedness; provided, however, that in no event would the Holder be required to agree to (x) subordinate its right to receive regularly scheduled payments of interest accruing under this Note except as provided for in Sections 2.2 and 2.3, (y) subordinate its right to receive payments pursuant to Section 4.2 except as provided for in Sections 2.2 and 2.3, or (z) any amendment of, or waiver or other similar action with respect to, Section 3 or Section 4.2 of this Note.

2.2 No Payment on Notes in Certain Circumstances.

(a) No payment or distribution of cash or property (other than Capital Stock of the Company or other securities of the Company that are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness to at least the same extent as this Note) of the Company will be made on account of principal of, or interest on, this Note, or to defease or acquire this Note (i) upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, unless and until all Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash, or such payment duly made in a manner satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or authorized agent on behalf thereof), (ii) in the event that the Company defaults in the payment of any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on or any other amounts payable on or due in connection with any Senior Indebtedness when it becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by acceleration or otherwise, unless and until such default has been cured or waived in writing or has ceased to exist, (iii) in the event any judicial proceeding shall be pending with respect to any of the events described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iv) of this Section 2.2(a) or (iv) any other default shall have occurred and be continuing that would permit the holders (or a trustee or authorized agent on behalf thereof) of the Senior Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity of Senior Indebtedness, upon written notice (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) of the default given to the Company and the Holder by the holders of, or an agent, trustee or other representative for, such Senior Indebtedness. In any such event described in the preceding sentence, unless and until such default has been cured or waived in writing, no payment or distribution of cash or property (other than Capital Stock of the Company or other securities of the Company that are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness to at least the same extent as this Note) may be made by the Company with respect to the principal of, or interest on, this Note or to acquire or repurchase this Note for cash or property other than Capital Stock of the Company or such subordinated securities. With respect to clause (iv) above, if such Senior Indebtedness is not declared due and payable within 150 days after the Payment Blockage Notice is given, promptly after the end of the 150-day period, the Company will pay all sums due in respect of this Note and not paid during the 150-day period. Payments on this Note may and shall be resumed in the case of a payment default upon the date on which such default is cured or waived. During any 540-day consecutive period, only one such period during which payment with respect to this Note may not be made pursuant to clause (iv) above may commence and the duration of such period may not exceed 150 days. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Holder shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been waived for a period of not fewer than 90 days.

(b) If any payment or distribution of assets of the Company is received by the Holder in respect of this Note at a time when that payment or distribution should not have been made because of Section 2,2(a), such payment or distribution will be received and held in trust for and will be forthwith paid over to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (pro rata as to each of such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by them) until all such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment, distribution or provision therefor to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

2.3 Note Subordinated to Prior Payment of All Senior Indebtedness on Dissolution, Liquidation or Reorganization. Upon any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of the Company’s assets or liabilities or otherwise):

(a) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness will first be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of Senior Indebtedness (including interest accruing after the commencement of a bankruptcy or insolvency at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Indebtedness and including, without limitation, in respect of premiums, indemnities or otherwise) in cash before the Holder is entitled to receive any payment, distribution or provision therefor on account of the principal of, or interest on, this Note;

(b) any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (except that the Holder may receive securities that are subordinated at least to the same extent as this Note is subordinated to Senior Indebtedness as provided in this Section 2 and any securities issued in exchange for Senior Indebtedness), to which the Holder would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 2.3, will be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Persons making such a payment or distribution directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders) or their representatives to the extent necessary to make or provide for payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or provision for that payment or distribution before the Holder is entitled to receive any payment, distribution or provisions therefor on account of the principal of, or interest on, this Note; and

(c) if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (except that the Holder may receive securities that are subordinated at least to the same extent as this Note is subordinated to Senior Indebtedness as provided in this Section 2 and any securities issued in exchange for Senior Indebtedness) is received by the Holder on account of the principal of, or interest on, this Note (notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.3) before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, such payment or distribution will be received and held in trust for and will be forthwith paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid or unprovided for or their representatives for application (in the case of cash) to, or as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for, the payment of such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment, distribution or provision therefor to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

K-3

The Company will give prompt written notice to the Holder of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of it or any assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

2.4 Holder To Be Subrogated to Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness. Subject to the prior and indefeasible payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the Holder shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on this Note shall be paid in full, and, for the purposes of such subrogation:

(a) no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holder would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 2 and no payment over by the Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2 to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Company, its creditors (other than holders of Senior Indebtedness) and the Holder, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness; and

(b) no payment or distribution of cash, property or securities to or for the benefit of the Holder pursuant to the subrogation provisions of this Section 2, which has been paid to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or for the account of this Note.

It is understood that the provisions of this Section 2 are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holder, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

2.5 Obligations of the Company Unconditional. Nothing contained in this Section 2 or elsewhere in this Note is intended to or will impair, as between the Company and the Holder, the obligations of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holder the principal of and interest on this Note as and when they become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof, or is intended to or will affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor will anything herein or therein prevent the Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Note, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 2 of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive the cash, property or securities of the Company receivable upon the exercise of any such remedy.

2.6 Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of the Company or Holders of Senior Indebtedness. No right of any present or future holders of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as provided herein will at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms of this Note, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may extend, renew, modify or amend the terms of Senior Indebtedness or any security therefor and release, sell or exchange such security and otherwise deal freely with the Company, all without affecting the liabilities and obligations of the Company or the Holder.

K-4

2.7 This Section Not To Prevent Events of Default. The failure to make a payment on account of the principal of, or interest on, this Note, by reason of any provision of this Section 2 will not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of Default.

2.8 Representative of Senior Indebtedness. Any notices to be given or payments to be made to any holders of Senior Indebtedness pursuant to this Note may be made or given to their authorized representative.

3. Conversion.

3.1 Conversion. From time to time, at the sole option of the Holder, all or any portion of the principal amount of and/or any accrued and unpaid interest on this Note then outstanding (such amount being converted, the “Convertible Amount”) may be converted in accordance with the terms of this Note into a number of Conversion Shares equal to the quotient of (X) the Convertible Amount divided by (Y) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share. No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Amount. In lieu of fractional shares, the Holder shall be entitled to receive cash equal to an amount derived by multiplying (X) the value per share of Common Stock equal to the average of the closing sale prices on the NYSE MKT for a share of Common Stock for the five complete trading days immediately preceding the Conversion Date (as defined below) by (Y) the fraction of a share of Common Stock that the Holder would, but for the preceding sentence, otherwise be entitled to receive.

3.2 Mechanics and Effects of Conversion. The Holder may exercise its conversion right hereunder by written notice to the Company, which written notice must specify (i) the Convertible Amount and (ii) the date of conversion, which shall be not fewer than 10 Business Days following the date of such notice (the “Conversion Date”). On the Conversion Date, the Company will issue to the Holder the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion. Upon conversion of this Note in full or in part pursuant to this Section 3, the Holder of this Note shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the principal offices of the Company or any transfer agent for the Company. The Holder must also execute and deliver any investment letters or ancillary agreements as are reasonably required by the Company at such time required to effect the conversion of this Note in accordance with its terms and all applicable laws. Upon conversion of this Note in part, the Company will issue to the Holder a replacement Note for the outstanding principal amount as of the Conversion Date minus the portion of the Convertible Amount representing principal and otherwise having the same terms and conditions as this Note. Upon conversion of this Note in full, the Company will be forever released from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Note, except for any obligations or liabilities that pursuant to the terms of this Note survive the termination hereof.

3.3 Adjustment for Stock Splits. If the Company shall at any time while this Note is outstanding effect a split of its Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such a split shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company shall at any time while this Note is outstanding effect a reverse split of its Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the reverse split shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 3.3 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the split or reverse split becomes effective. Any change to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be determined in good faith by the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company.

K-5

3.4 Adjustment for Certain Dividends. In the event that at any time while this Note is outstanding the Company shall make or issue a dividend payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

(a) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance; and

(b) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend;

provided, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the Holder simultaneously with the payment of such dividend receives a distribution of shares of Common Stock in an amount equal to the number of Conversion Shares it would have received had all of the outstanding principal of, and then accrued and unpaid interest on, this Note been converted into Conversion Shares immediately prior to the date of such event.

3.5 Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization. If there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger involving the Company in which the shares of Common Stock are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by Section 3.4), then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger, this Note shall be, at the option of the Holder, convertible into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which the Holder would have received if all of this Note had been converted into Conversion Shares immediately prior to the date of such event; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Note set forth with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Note (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of the Convertible Amount.

3.6 Anti-Dilution Adjustment. If, while this Note remains outstanding, the Company issues shares of Common Stock, any security convertible into shares of Common Stock or any warrant or option exercisable for additional shares of Common Stock to any Person (other than to an officer, director, employee or consultant of the Company pursuant to any stock option or other equity incentive compensation plan) for aggregate cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock which is less than the Conversion Price, then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted proportionately such that the Convertible Amount, when converted, would be convertible into the same percentage of all outstanding shares of Common Stock as such Convertible Amount could have been converted into immediately prior to such event; provided, however, that no adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price; provided further, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this proviso are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

K-6

3.7 No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, directly or indirectly avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Note and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue Common Stock upon exercise of the Holder’s rights under this Section 3 and (ii) use its reasonable effort to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Note.

3.8 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 3, the Company, at its expense, will promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the calculations upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Holder may provide the Company with written notice of any manifest error in such certificate (or the calculations therein) within five Business Days following receipt thereof and any such error shall be promptly corrected, the adjustment or readjustment recalculated and a new certificate of adjustment or readjustment, showing in detail the relevant calculations, shall be provided to the Holder. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price then in effect, and (ii) the number of Conversion Shares and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of this Note (including accrued and unpaid interest thereon).

3.9 Reservation of Conversion Shares. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Capital Stock, solely for the purposes of issuance upon the conversion of this Note as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all of the principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note. The Company covenants that all Conversion Shares which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonasessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that all Conversion Shares may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, subject to and assuming the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Holder referred to in Section 20 hereof.

3.10 Rights Prior to Conversion. Prior to the conversion, as set forth in this Section 3, and the issuance and delivery of a certificate or certificates (if any) evidencing the shares of Common Stock or shares of other Capital Stock acquired pursuant to the conversion, the Holder shall have no interest in, or any voting, dividend, liquidation or dissolution rights with respect to, any shares of Common Stock or shares of other Capital Stock of the Company solely by reason of this Note.

K-7

3.11 Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time, (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling such holders to receive a dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its Indebtedness, any shares of Capital Stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right or (ii) there is any reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall give to the Holder, as applicable, (A) at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right and (B) if any such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger, at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause shall also specify, as applicable, (C) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right and the amount and character thereof and (D) the date on which any such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which holders of Capital Stock of the Company shall be entitled to exchange their Capital Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, amalgamation or merger.

4. Prepayment.

4.1 Optional Prepayments. The Company may, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Holder stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, prepay the outstanding principal amount of this Note, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, together with accrued interest through the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid. Upon the giving of such notice of prepayment, the principal amount of this Note specified to be prepaid, together with the accrued and unpaid interest through the date of such payment, shall become due and payable on the date specified for such prepayment.

4.2 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Unless the Holder shall otherwise agree, (i) if any Indebtedness shall be incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries (excluding any Indebtedness incurred in connection with the Senior Notes) or if any Capital Stock shall be issued by the Company or its Subsidiaries to any Person (other than to an officer, director, employee or consultant of the Company pursuant to any stock option or other equity incentive compensation plan); and (ii) unless the Net Cash Proceeds of such incurrence of Indebtedness or issuance of Capital Stock are applied in full to the repayment of Senior Indebtedness, then on the date of such incurrence or issuance, this Note will be prepaid, by an amount equal to the amount of the Net Cash Proceeds of such incurrence or issuance not so applied to repayment of Senior Indebtedness to the extent required to prepay the outstanding principal amount of this Note together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment.

K-8

(b) In respect of Indebtedness incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to the sale and issuance of the Senior Notes, then notwithstanding the foregoing Section 4.2(a), if and to the extent the Company (or one of its Subsidiaries) receives gross proceeds in excess of $250 million, this Note will be prepaid (to the extent required to prepay the outstanding principal amount together with accrued interest through the date of prepayment) by an amount equal to (i) the Net Cash Proceeds so received multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of gross proceeds so received minus $250,000,000, and the denominator of which is the amount of gross proceeds so received.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Company represents and warrants to the Holder, and as applicable, covenants for the benefit of the Holder that:

5.1 Organizational Matters. The Company has the full and requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Note. The Company (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, (ii) has all requisite power and authority to own its properties and carry on its business and (iii) is qualified to do business and in good standing in all jurisdictions where it conducts operations.

5.2 Authorization, Execution and Delivery. This Note has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

5.3 Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Note will not (i) violate or contravene its organizational documents, any law, rule or regulation or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, governmental authority or arbitrator, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any agreement, contractual obligation or undertaking to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound, or (iii) result in the creation or imposition of or obligation to grant any lien upon any properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.4 Required Approvals and Consents. No authorization, approval or consent of, and no filing or registration with, any court or governmental authority is or will be necessary for the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Note or for the validity or enforceability hereof or thereof.

5.5 Senior Indebtedness. Except as set forth in the Existing Promissory Note and as permitted by Section 2 hereof, the terms of the Senior Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries do not limit or restrict the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Note including without limitation the payment of the obligations hereunder (whether interest or principal and whether in the form of scheduled payments, optional prepayments or mandatory prepayments). The Company agrees that, except for the Existing Promissory Note and as contemplated by Section 2 hereof, it will not, and it will not permit its Subsidiaries to, incur any Senior Indebtedness that would expressly limit or restrict the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Note including without limitation the payment of the Company’s obligations hereunder (whether interest or principal and whether in the form of scheduled payments or mandatory prepayments).

(a) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on this Note (whether or not prohibited by Section 2 of this Note);

(b) default in payment when due of principal on this Note, either at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (whether or not prohibited by Section 2 of this Note);

(c) any representation or warranty made by the Company herein in connection with this Note shall prove to have been inaccurate in any material respect on or as of the date made;

(d) the failure by the Company to perform or observe, in any material respect, any covenant, term or agreement set forth in this Note (other than those expressly set forth in another clause of this Section 6.1) and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 10 Business Days following the earlier of (i) notice of such failure by the Holder or (ii) actual knowledge of such failure by the Company;

(e) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee exists as of the date of this Note, or is created after the date of this Note, after which default the holders of such Indebtedness accelerate the maturity of such Indebtedness having an outstanding principal amount of at least $25 million, if such acceleration is not cured and the acceleration rescinded within 30 days after such acceleration or failure to pay;

(f) failure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to pay final non-appealable judgments (to the extent not covered by insurance, or for insured loss as to which the insurer has not denied coverage in writing) aggregating in excess of $25 million that are not stayed within 60 days after their entry;

(g) a decree, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction shall have been entered adjudging the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries as bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries under any bankruptcy or similar law, and such decree or order shall have continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 60 days; or a decree or order of a court of competent jurisdiction appointing a receiver, liquidator, trustee, or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, or of the property of any such Person, or for the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of any such Person, shall have been entered, and such decree, judgment, or order shall have remained in force, undischarged and unstayed for a period of 60 days;

K-10

(h) the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall institute proceedings to be adjudicated a voluntary bankrupt, or shall consent to the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against it, or shall file a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization under any bankruptcy or similar law or similar statute, or shall consent to the filing of any such petition, or shall consent to the appointment of a custodian, receiver, liquidator, trustee, or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of it or any of its assets or property, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall be generally unable to pay its debts as they become due.

The subordination provisions set forth in Section 2 prohibiting the Company from making a payment or distribution of cash or property on account of principal of, or interest on, this Note, or to defease or acquire this Note, shall not prevent the occurrence of an Event of Default.

6.2 Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) of Section 6.1 relating to the Company), unless the principal of this Note shall have already become due and payable, the Holder, by notice in writing to the Company (an “Acceleration Notice”), may declare all principal and accrued interest on this Note to be due and payable (a) immediately if no Senior Indebtedness is outstanding or (b) if Senior Indebtedness is outstanding, upon the earlier of (i) ten days after such Acceleration Notice is received by the Company or (ii) the acceleration of any Senior Indebtedness; provided, however, that (x) prior to the expiration of such period, such acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled without further action required on the part of the Holder in the event that any default specified in the Acceleration Notice shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied and (y) at any time before the entry of a judgment or decree for the payment of money due under this Note, the Holder may waive all defaults and annul the consequences thereof if certain conditions are satisfied, including that all Events of Default (other than the non-payment of the principal of this Note which became due by acceleration) shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied. If an Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) of Section 6.1 above relating to the Company occurs, all principal and accrued interest shall be immediately due and payable on this Note without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holder. Prior to the declaration of acceleration of the maturity of this Note, the Holder may waive any default, except where such waiver would conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

6.3 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holder may waive in writing an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of this Note. Upon any such waiver in writing, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Note; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

6.4 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, the right of the Holder to receive payment of principal and interest on this Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in this Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder.

K-11

7. Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company hereunder or under any document executed in connection herewith shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes; provided, however, that if the Company shall be required to deduct any taxes from such payments, then (a) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 7) the Holder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) the Company shall make such deductions and (c) the Company shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law and, thereafter, promptly provide the Holder with a copy of any receipt received from the relevant governmental authority or other proof of payment with respect to such taxes paid.

8. Default Interest. Upon the delivery of an Acceleration Notice, the entire principal balance of this Note, together with all interest theretofore accrued thereon, shall thereafter bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Rate plus two percent (2.0%). No delay or omission on the part of the Holder hereof in exercising any right under this Note shall operate as a waiver of such right. For the avoidance of doubt, the adjustment of the interest rate pursuant to this Section 8 shall occur immediately upon delivery of an Acceleration Notice to the Company, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, upon the effectiveness thereof pursuant to Section 6.2.

9. Replacement Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Company or the Company receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue and authenticate a replacement Note. If reasonably required by the Company, the Holder shall enter into an indemnity agreement that is in the reasonable judgment of the Company sufficient to protect the Company from any loss which it may suffer if a Note is replaced. Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 9 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an additional obligation of the Company.

10. Notices. Any notices or certificate required in this Note or permitted to be given shall be in writing and delivered personally, by a recognized courier service, by a recognized overnight delivery service, by facsimile or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at the following addresses (or to the attention of such other Person or such other address as the Holder or the Company may provide to the other by notice in accordance with this Section 10) and any such notice shall be deemed to have been given and received on the day it is personally delivered or delivered by courier or overnight delivery service or sent by facsimile or, if mailed, when actually received:

11. Amendment; Waivers; No Additional Consideration. Except as otherwise provided in this Note, no provision of this Note may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed by the Company and the Holder. No waiver of any Default or Event of Default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Note shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

12. Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Note to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Note unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes,” or “including” are used in this Note, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

13. Severability. Every provision of this Note is intended to be severable. In the event any term or provision hereof is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the balance of the terms and provisions hereof, which terms and provisions shall remain binding and in full force and effect.

14. Waiver. The Company hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand, notice of protest, dishonor and nonpayment of this Note and expressly agrees, without in any way affecting the liability of the Company hereunder, that the Holder may extend any maturity date or the time for payment of any amount due hereunder.

15. Attorneys’ Fees; Costs of Collection. If this Note is not paid when due or if any Event of Default occurs, the Company promises to pay all documented costs of enforcement and collection, including but not limited to the Holder’s documented attorneys’ fees, whether or not legal proceedings were commenced.

16. Interest Rate Limitation. It is the intent of the Company and the Holder in the execution of this Note and in all transactions related hereto to comply with the Usury Laws. In the event that, for any reason, it should be determined that the Usury Laws apply to this Note, the Holder and the Company stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained herein shall ever be construed to create a contract for use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment of interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged by the Usury Laws. In such event, if the Holder shall collect money or other property which is deemed to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the effective interest rate on this Note to a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted to be charged by the Usury Laws, all such sums or property deemed to constitute interest in excess of such maximum rate shall, at the option of the Holder, be refunded to the Company or credited to the payment of the principal sum due hereunder.

K-13

17. No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under this Note or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. The Holder by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of this Note.

18. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

19. Dispute Resolution.

19.1 Mandatory Arbitration. All disputes among the parties arising out of or relating to this Note will be resolved by mandatory, binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 19.

19.2. Friendly Negotiations. Before any arbitration is commenced pursuant to this Section 19, the parties must endeavor to reach an amicable settlement of the dispute through friendly negotiations.

19.3 Submission of Matters to Arbitration. If no mutually acceptable settlement of the dispute is made within 60 days from the commencement of the settlement negotiation or if the party refuses to engage in any settlement negotiation, any party may submit the dispute for arbitration.

19.4 Rules for Arbitration. Any arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 19 will be conducted in Houston, Texas under the Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law by arbitrators appointed in accordance with such rules except as expressly modified herein. The arbitration and appointing authority will be the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration will be conducted by a panel of three arbitrators, one chosen by the Company, one chosen by the Holder and the third chosen by agreement of the two selected arbitrators; failing agreement within 30 days prior to commencement of the arbitration proceeding, the AAA will appoint the third arbitrator. The proceedings will be confidential and conducted in English. The arbitral tribunal will have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve a disputed matter, and its award will be final and binding on the parties. The arbitral tribunal will determine how the parties will bear the costs of the arbitration in accordance with Texas law. During the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding relating to a dispute between the parties, the parties will continue to exercise their remaining respective rights and fulfill their remaining respective obligations under this Note, except with regard to the matters under dispute (other than any provision of Section 2).

19.5 Interim Relief. Nothing in this Section 19 shall prevent either party from applying to a court of competent jurisdiction for interim measures or other similar relief. The parties agree that seeking and obtaining such interim measures or similar relief shall not waive the right to arbitration, including the right to apply to the arbitrators for such interim measures or similar relief. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable laws, the parties hereby authorize and empower the arbitrator to grant interim measures, including injunctions, attachments and conservation orders, and all other remedies permitted by this Note (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be part of the final arbitral decision or award), in appropriate circumstances; these interim measures and other remedies may be immediately enforced by court order.

21. Successors and Assigns; Assignments.

21.1 Successors. This Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the Holder and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Note without the prior written consent of the Holder.

The Holder (as “Assignor”) may, in accordance with applicable law and upon written notice to the Company, at any time and from time to time assign to any Person (an “Assignee”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Note pursuant to an assignment and acceptance agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), duly executed by the Assignor and such Assignee and delivered to the Company for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined below). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (a) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Holder hereunder, and (b) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Note. In the event that, as a result of a partial assignment of this Note, more than one Person is a Holder of this Note, then any reference to the term “Holder” in this Note with respect to any waiver, consent, amendment or other matter requiring the approval of the Holder shall mean one or more Persons holding in the aggregate a Note or Notes representing greater than 50% of the total principal amount outstanding at such time.

21.3 Register. The Company shall, on behalf of the Holder, maintain at its principal office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the prompt recordation of the name and address of any Holder and the principal amount owing to such Holder from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Company and the Holder shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note. Any assignment of all or any part of a Holder’s rights and obligations under this Note, whether or not evidenced by a new Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each additional Note, if any, shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or any part of a Holder’s rights and obligations under this Note shall be registered in the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment of this Note, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Note shall be returned to the Company marked “canceled.” No service charge shall be made to the Holder for any registration of an assignment (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company or the Holder at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
