(ii) If a Series A Member voluntarily terminates such Series A Member’s employment with all members of the Jagged Peak Group (other than, with respect to any Series A Member that is a Group I Member, for Good Reason), then the board of directors of PubCo shall have sole and absolute discretion to cause the Unvested Series A Units held by such Member to (A) remain Unvested Series A Units subject to the same vesting schedule applicable to such Unvested Series A Units prior to the termination, (B)

become Vested Series A Units, and/or (C) automatically be forfeited to the Company for zero consideration along with all rights arising from such Unvested Series A Units and from being a holder thereof, or any combination thereof, in each case effective as of such termination.

(iv) If a Series A Member’s employment with all members of the Jagged Peak Group is terminated by a Jagged Peak Employer for any reason other than Cause or as a result of the death or Disability of such Member, then: (A) in the case of Xxxxxxx (or any Series A Member that is a Permitted Transferee of Xxxxxxx), then all Unvested Series A Units held by such Member shall become Vested Series A Units upon such termination and (B) in the case of all other Members, (1) if such termination was approved by (x) if Xxxxxxx is serving as CEO, Executive Chairman or is otherwise employed by or a director of a Jagged Peak Employer at such time, Xxxxxxx, or (y) if Xxxxxxx is not serving as CEO, Executive Chairman or is otherwise employed by or a director of a Jagged Peak Employer at such time, by a Qualified CEO Successor, then all Unvested Series A Units held by such Member and all rights arising from such Unvested Series Units and from being a holder thereof shall automatically be forfeited to the Company for zero consideration or (2) (x) if such termination was not approved by (I) if Xxxxxxx is serving as CEO, Executive Chairman or is otherwise employed by or a director of a Jagged Peak Employer at such time, Xxxxxxx, or (II) if Xxxxxxx is not serving as CEO, Executive Chairman or is otherwise employed by or a director of a Jagged Peak Employer at such time, by a Qualified CEO Successor or (y) if the CEO at such time is not a Qualified CEO Successor, then all Unvested Series A Units held by such Member shall become Vested Series A Units upon such termination. For purposes of applying the provisions of this Section 3.3(b), at such time that Xxxxxxx or a Qualified CEO Successor is no longer CEO and any successor CEO is hired by PubCo, Xxxxxxx or such Qualified CEO Successor, as applicable, shall deliver written notice to the Company notifying the Company as to whether Xxxxxxx or such Qualified CEO Successor, as applicable, approves of such successor CEO.

(vi) For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise determined by the board of directors of PubCo, (i) any reference to a Series A Member’s employment shall include the employment of an employee of any Jagged Peak Employer if such Series A Member would be a Permitted Transferee of such employee if such employee was a Series A Member and (ii) any reference to the Unvested Series A Units held by a Series A Member shall include the Unvested Series A Units held by any Permitted Transferee of such Series A Member.

Following such distribution, such Vested Series A Unit shall be cancelled and shall no longer be outstanding and the number of Series A Units authorized pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be correspondingly reduced; provided, however, that in connection with the Year Three Vesting Date, such Series A Units shall not be cancelled and shall remain outstanding following such distribution. The Company shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to cause any share of Common Stock (or other security of PubCo) distributed pursuant to this Section 3.3(c) to be held of record in the name of the recipient thereof.

(d) Upon the forfeiture of any Unvested Series A Units to the Company pursuant to this Section 3.3, (i) with respect to any such Unvested Series A Units (A) held by any Member other than a Group I Member or (B) held by any Group I Member and forfeited on or following the Year One Vesting Date, such forfeited Unvested Series A Units shall be reallocated among the then remaining Series A Members pro rata in proportion to their respective holdings of original Jagged Peak Energy Management Incentive Units set forth on Schedule II hereto and (ii) with respect to any Unvested Series A Units (A) held by a Group I Member and (B) forfeited prior to the Year One Vesting Date, such forfeited Unvested Series A Units shall automatically be converted into authorized but unissued Series B Units (and the number of Series A Units and Series B Units authorized pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be correspondingly reduced or increased, as applicable). Any Unvested Series A Units allocated to a Series A Member pursuant to this Section 3.3(d) shall become Vested Series A Units pursuant the same terms and conditions as the other Series A Units held by such Series A Member, with such reallocated Unvested Series A Units being allocated among the remaining Series A Scheduled Vesting Dates applicable to such Series A Member pro rata based on the

number of such Series A Scheduled Vesting Dates remaining as of the time of such reallocation of Unvested Series A Units.

3.4 Series B Units.

(a) As of the Effective Date, each Member listed on Schedule I has been issued the number of Series B Units set forth opposite such Member’s name under the columns titled “Vested Series B Units” and “Unvested Series B Units” on Schedule I. Following the Effective Date, Series B Units may be issued to any employee of a Jagged Peak Employer; provided, however, that the issuance of any Series B Units shall require the consent of the Board of Directors of PubCo and the Manager. Recipients of Series B Units will be admitted as Members of the Company with respect to their Series B Units upon their execution of an Award Letter (an “Award Letter”) reflecting their agreement to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Series B Units shall vest or remain unvested in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Award Letter under which such Series B Units were granted. The terms and conditions of any Award Letter pursuant to which Series B Units are granted shall require the approval of the Manager and the Board of Directors of PubCo.

(b) At such time that any Unvested Series B Unit becomes a Vested Series B Unit, the Company shall distribute one share of Common Stock to the holder of such Vested Series B Unit, together with the shares of Common Stock, other securities in PubCo, cash, assets and any other rights distributed by PubCo to the Company in respect of such share of Common Stock after the Effective Date and prior to the time of such distribution (such distribution to be appropriately adjusted by Quantum and the Manager to take into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Stock). Following such distribution, such Vested Series B Unit shall be cancelled and shall no longer be outstanding and the number of Series B Units authorized pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be correspondingly reduced. The Company shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to cause any share of Common Stock (or other security of PubCo) distributed pursuant to this Section 3.4(b) to be held of record in the name of the recipient thereof.

(c) Upon the forfeiture of any Unvested Series B Units to the Company pursuant to any Award Letter, (i) with respect to any such forfeiture occurring prior to the Year One Vesting Date, such Unvested Series B Units shall become unissued Series B Units and (ii) with respect to any such forfeiture occurring on or after the Year One Vesting Date and on or prior to the Year Three Vesting Date, such forfeited Unvested Series B Units shall be converted into Unvested Series A Units and be allocated among the then remaining Series A Members pro rata in proportion to their respective holdings of original Jagged Peak Energy Management Incentive Units set forth on Schedule II hereto (and the number of Series A Units and Series B Units authorized pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be correspondingly increased or reduced, as applicable). Any Unvested Series A Units allocated to a Series A Member pursuant to this

Section 3.4(c) shall become Vested Series A Units pursuant the same terms and conditions as the other Series A Units held by such Series A Member, with such allocated Unvested Series A Units being allocated among the remaining Series A Scheduled Vesting Dates applicable to such Series A Member pro rata based on the number of such Series A Scheduled Vesting Dates remaining as of the time of such reallocation of Unvested Series A Units.

(d) Upon the forfeiture of any Unvested Series B Unit to the Company pursuant to any Award Letter after the Year Three Vesting Date, one share of Common Stock, together with any other securities in PubCo, cash, assets and any other rights attributable to such share of Common Stock (such distribution to be appropriately adjusted by the Manager to take into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Stock), shall be distributed to the then remaining Series A Members pro rata in proportion to their respective holdings of original Jagged Peak Energy Management Incentive Units set forth on Schedule II hereto.

(e) In the event any authorized Series B Units remain unissued as of immediately prior to the Year One Vesting Date, such Series B Units shall be converted into Unvested Series A Units and be allocated among the then remaining Series A Members pro rata in proportion to their respective holdings of original Jagged Peak Energy Management Incentive Units set forth on Schedule II hereto (and the number of Series A Units and Series B Units authorized pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be correspondingly reduced or increased, as applicable). Any Unvested Series A Units allocated to a Series A Member pursuant to this Section 3.4(e) shall become Vested Series A Units pursuant to the same terms and conditions as the other Series A Units held by such Series A Member, with such reallocated Unvested Series A Units being allocated among the three Series A Scheduled Vesting Dates pro rata.

3.5 Fractional Units. Any fractional Units that would otherwise be issued pursuant to this Agreement (including as a result of any forfeitures or reallocations described in this Article 3) shall be rounded to the nearest whole Unit (with any one-half Unit being rounded up to the nearest whole Unit). For the avoidance of doubt, any such calculation shall be appropriately adjusted by the Manager and Quantum to ensure that, prior to the Year Three Vesting Date, the number of authorized Units equals the number of shares of Original Common Stock.

3.6 Return of Contributions. No interest shall accrue on any contributions to the capital of the Company, and no Member shall have the right to withdraw or to be repaid any capital contributed by such Member, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. Loans by a Member to the Company shall not be considered capital contributions.

The Company is hereby authorized to withhold from distributions, or with respect to allocations, to the Members and to pay over to any federal, state, local or foreign government any amounts required to be so withheld by the Company or PubCo, as applicable, pursuant to federal, state, local or foreign law. The Manager shall determine the form of payment acceptable for such tax withholding obligations, including the delivery of cash or cash equivalents, shares of Common Stock (including previously owned shares, net settlement, a broker-assisted sale, or other cashless withholding or reduction of the amount of shares otherwise issuable or distributed to the Member), other property, or any other legal consideration the Manager deems appropriate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall shares of Common Stock be issued to a Member pursuant to Section 3.3(c) or 3.4(b) unless and until such Member has satisfied any withholding obligation of the Company and PubCo with respect to such issuance.

ARTICLE 5 MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY

5.1 Manager Managed Company. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, the management, control and direction of the Company and its operations, business and affairs shall be vested in the Manager, which shall have the right, power and authority to carry out any and all of the purposes of the Company and to perform or refrain from performing any and all acts that the Manager may deem necessary, desirable, appropriate or incidental thereto, in its sole discretion. The Members hereby designate Xxxxxxx as the Manager. The Manager may appoint such other officers as the Manager may determine. Such officers shall have such responsibilities and authorities as designated by the Manager, subject to the applicable restrictions set forth herein and to the direction of the Manager. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to (and the Manager may not authorize the Company to) Transfer any shares of Common Stock or other securities of PubCo held by the Company without the prior written consent of the Manager and Quantum.

5.2 Replacement of the Manager. In the event that Xxxxxxx is no longer the CEO, Executive Chairman or otherwise employed by or a director of any Jagged Peak Employer, the

Board of Directors of PubCo, with the approval of Quantum, shall select a replacement Manager.

5.3 Indemnification; Advancement of Expenses; Insurance; Limitation of Liability.

(a) Except as limited by applicable law and subject to the provisions of this Section 5.3, each Manager, Member, “tax matters partner” and officer of the Company (each an “Indemnitee”) shall be entitled to be indemnified and held harmless against any and all losses, liabilities and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising from proceedings in which such Indemnitee may be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its being a Manager, Member or officer of the Company, or by reason of its involvement in the management of the affairs of the Company, whether or not it continues to be such at the time any such loss, liability or expense is paid or incurred; provided, however, that no Indemnitee shall be indemnified under this Section 5.3 for any losses, liabilities or expenses arising out of the fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, or willful or wanton misconduct of such Indemnitee. The rights of indemnification provided in this Section 5.3 shall be in addition to any rights to which an Indemnitee may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law and shall extend to such Indemnitee’s successors and assigns. In particular, and without limitation of the foregoing, an Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification by the Company against reasonable expenses (as incurred), including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of any action to which the Indemnitee may be made a party (without regard to the success of such defense), to the fullest extent permitted under the provisions of the DLLCA or any other applicable statute.

(b) Except as limited by applicable law, expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any proceeding, including a proceeding by or in the right of the Company (except a proceeding by or in the right of the Company against such Indemnitee), shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon receipt of a written undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay such amount if such Indemnitee is determined pursuant to this Section 5.3 or adjudicated to be ineligible for indemnification, which undertaking shall be an unlimited general obligation of the Indemnitee but need not be secured and shall be accepted without regard to the financial ability of the Indemnitee to make repayment.

(c) The indemnification provided by this Section 5.3 shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and personal representatives of each Indemnitee.

(d) No amendment or repeal of the provisions of this Section 5.3 which adversely affects the rights of any Indemnitee under this Section 5.3 with respect to the acts or omissions of such Indemnitee at any time prior to such amendment or repeal shall apply to such Indemnitee without the written consent of such Indemnitee.

(e) Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall be made only out of the assets of the Company and shall in no event cause the Members to incur any personal liability nor shall it result in any liability of the Members to any third party.

(f) None of the Manager, Members, “tax matters partner” or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective employees, agents, directors, managers and officers shall be liable to the Company for errors in judgment or for any acts or omissions that do not constitute fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, or willful or wanton misconduct. THE MEMBERS RECOGNIZE THAT SUCH EXCULPATION FROM LIABILITY RELATES TO ACTS OR OMISSIONS THAT MAY GIVE RISE TO ORDINARY, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE. The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that any Person engaged in fraud or willful misconduct, was grossly negligent or was guilty of willful or wanton misconduct.

(g) The Company hereby acknowledges that an Indemnitee may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by such Indemnitee or its Affiliates (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to any Indemnitee hereunder are primary and any obligation of the Other Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Indemnitee are secondary to the Company), (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement (or any other agreement between the Company and Indemnitee), without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against the Other Indemnitors, and (iii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Other Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Other Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Other Indemnitors on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Other Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against the Company. The Other Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 5.3(h).

5.4 Insurance. The Company shall acquire and maintain insurance, including D&O insurance, covering such risks and in such amounts as the Manager shall from time to time determine to be necessary or appropriate.

5.5 Tax Elections. The Company shall make the following elections for tax purposes on the appropriate returns:

(a) to the extent permitted by law, to adopt the Fiscal Year as the Company’s taxable year;

(b) to the extent permitted by law, to adopt the accrual method of accounting and to keep the Company’s books and records on such method;

(c) if a distribution of the Company’s property as described in section 734 of the Code occurs or upon a Transfer of an Interest as described in section 743 of the Code, on request by notice from any Member, to elect, pursuant to section 754 of the Code, to adjust the basis of the Company’s properties;

(d) to elect to deduct and amortize the organizational expenses of the Company as permitted by section 709(b) of the Code; and

Within seventy-five (75) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Company shall send or deliver, or shall cause to be sent or delivered, to each Person who was a Member at any time during such year such tax information as shall be reasonably required for the preparation by such Person of his federal income tax return and state and other tax returns.

5.7 Tax Matters Partner/Representative. (a)

(a) The Members designate Xxxxxxx, or such other Member as may be designated by the Manager, to be the “tax matters partner” of the Company pursuant to section 6231(a)(7) of the Code. The Manager may change the Member who is designated the tax matters partner at any time. The Member who is the tax matters partner shall take such action as may be necessary to cause each other Member to become a “notice partner” within the meaning of section 6223 of the Code. The tax matters partner shall inform each other Member of all significant matters that may come to its attention in its capacity as tax matters partner by giving notice thereof on or before the fifth Business Day after becoming aware thereof and, within that time, shall forward to each other Member copies of all significant written communications it may receive in that capacity. Any Member who is designated as tax matters partner may not take any action contemplated by the Code without the consent of Members who hold in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Units, and may not in any case take any action left to the determination of an individual Member under sections 6222 through 6231 of the Code.

(b) The Manager may appoint and replace a partnership representative and authorize the partnership representative to take any and all actions determined by the Manager and permissible under Section 6223 of the Code and Treasury Regulations thereunder. The Manager shall have the authority to amend this Section 5.7 to give effect to the provisions of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 and any Treasury Regulations or other administrative pronouncements promulgated thereunder and each Member agrees to be bound by the provisions of any such amendment.

5.8 Classification. The Company intends to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes under Treasury Regulation §301.7701-3(c). To the extent Treasury Regulation §301.7701-3 does not govern the state and local tax classification of the Company, the Manager shall take such action as may be permitted or required under any state and/or local law applicable to the Company to cause the Company to be taxable as, and in a manner consistent with, a partnership (or the functional equivalent thereof under applicable law) for state and/or local income tax purposes. In addition, neither the Company nor any Member may make an election under Treasury Regulation §301.7701-3(c) to treat the Company as an association taxable as a corporation or to be excluded from the application of the provisions of subchapter K of chapter 1 of subtitle A of the Code or any similar provisions of applicable state law and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to sanction or approve such an election.

5.9 Subsidiaries. The Company, the Manager and each Member acknowledge and agree that the Company shall not form or acquire any subsidiaries unless otherwise agreed by the Manager and Quantum.

ARTICLE 6 RIGHTS OF MEMBERS

Any demand for such information shall be made in writing and shall specify the purpose of such demand.

In their positions with Other Investments, the Approved Parties may become aware of business opportunities that could be suitable for the Company, but the Members expressly acknowledge that the Approved Parties will not have any duty to disclose to the Company any

such business opportunities, whether or not competitive with the Company’s business and whether or not the Company might be interested in such business opportunities for itself. Furthermore, the Members acknowledge that the Approved Parties have duties not to disclose confidential information of or related to Other Investments. The Members agree that the activities of the Approved Parties relating to Other Investments that are contemplated by this Section 6.2(b) are not unreasonable and would not violate any duty of the Approved Parties to the Company or the Members.

(c) The Members agree that, to the extent any court holds that any activity relating to any Other Investments is a breach of a duty to the Company or its Members, the Members hereby waive any and all claims and causes of action that they or the Company may have in connection with such activity; provided, however, that this sentence shall not constitute a waiver by the Members of any disclosure of Confidential Information by the Approved Parties in violation of Section 7.3. The Members further agree that the waivers and agreements in this Agreement identify certain types and categories of activities which do not violate any duty of the Approved Parties to the Company or its Members and that such types and categories are not manifestly unreasonable. The waivers and agreements in this Agreement apply equally to activities that have been conducted in the past and to activities conducted in the future.

6.3 Liability to Third Parties. No Member shall be liable for the debts, obligations or liabilities of the Company, including under a judgment decree or order of a court.

6.4 Action by Members. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, all actions and decisions of the Members required hereunder in their capacity as such shall require approval of Members holding more than fifty percent (50%) of the Units. If there is any matter that requires the approval of the Manager, Quantum or the board of directors of PubCo, such approval will be sufficient to authorize the Company to take that action and no further vote or approval of the Members of the Company will be necessary or required under the terms of this Agreement. The Members entitled to vote may make any decision or take any action at a meeting, by conference telephone call, by written consent, by oral agreement or by any other method they elect.

ARTICLE 7 BOOKS, REPORTS, BUDGET, EXPENSES AND CONFIDENTIALITY

7.3 Confidentiality.

(a) No Member shall use, publish, disseminate or otherwise disclose, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information that should come into the possession of such Member other than for the purpose of conducting the business of the Company or performing its duties and obligations hereunder or under an applicable employment or consulting agreement, or to the extent a Member is required to disclose such Confidential Information (i) due to a subpoena or court order or other legal process, (ii) if such Member testifies in a judicial or regulatory proceeding pursuant to the order of a judge or administrative law judge after such Member requests confidential treatment for such Confidential Information, or (iii) in order to enforce his, her or its rights under this Agreement; provided, however, that Quantum may disclose Confidential Information to its Affiliates, investors, advisors and representatives so long as such parties are subject to confidentiality provisions in Quantum’s constituent documents or otherwise or to any regulatory or other governmental authority that regulates Quantum to the extent disclosure is required by such authority. In addition, each Member agrees not to disclose the identity of any of the investors of Quantum without such Entities’ prior approval, unless required to make the disclosure under applicable law or pursuant to legal process. Each Member shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, members, partners, investors, employees, representatives and agents (i) to comply with this Section 7.3, (ii) to refrain from using any Confidential Information other than in connection with the conduct of the business of the Company, and (iii) to refrain from disclosing any Confidential Information to a Person known to be a competitor of the Company; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit Quantum from utilizing Confidential Information in connection with Other Investments, if such Confidential Information is acquired from a source other than the Company, provided, that source is not known by Quantum to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other contractual or legal obligation of confidentiality to, the Company with respect to such Confidential Information. In connection with the foregoing, Quantum represents that its partnership or other formation agreements contain provisions that generally require, subject to certain limited exceptions, each limited partner, member or other owner to maintain in strict confidence any and all material, nonpublic information concerning the operations, business, or affairs of entities in which they invest, including such information relating to the Company. If a Member is required by law or court order to disclose information that would otherwise be Confidential Information under this Agreement, such Member shall immediately notify the Manager and Quantum of such notice and provide the Manager and Quantum the opportunity to resist such disclosure by appropriate proceedings.

(b) No Member shall disclose to any other party (excluding such Member’s spouse, accountants, financial advisors, lenders, legal counsel and Permitted Transferees) any information relating to the terms of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Manager; provided, however, that Quantum may disclose the terms of this Agreement to its Affiliates, investors, advisors and representatives. No announcement about the formation of the Company pursuant to this Agreement will be made without the advance notice to and prior written consent of Quantum.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 7.3 shall limit or otherwise restrict in any manner the ability of Quantum or PubCo to disclose Confidential Information in its sole discretion.

ARTICLE 8 WINDING UP, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

8.1 Winding Up. The Company shall be wound up upon the earliest to occur of any of the following:

(a) at the election of the Manager and Quantum at any time; or

(b) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under the DLLCA.

8.2 Liquidation and Termination. Upon the occurrence of an event requiring the winding up of the Company, unless it is reconstituted pursuant to the DLLCA, the Manager or a Person or Persons selected by the Manager shall act as liquidator or shall appoint one or more liquidators who shall have full authority to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distribution as provided herein. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:

(a) As promptly as possible after an event requiring the winding up of the Company and again after final liquidation, the liquidator, if requested by Quantum, shall cause a proper accounting to be made by the Company’s independent accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the month in which an event requiring the winding up of the Company occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as appropriate.

(b) The liquidator shall pay all of the debts and liabilities of the Company (including all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision therefor (including the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine). After making payment or provision for all debts and liabilities of the Company, the liquidator shall sell all properties and assets of the Company for cash as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the best price therefor; provided, however, that, upon the consent of the Manager, the liquidator may distribute such properties in kind. All gain, loss, and amount realized on such sales shall be allocated to the Members as provided in Exhibit A, and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted accordingly. In the event of a distribution of properties in kind, the liquidator shall first adjust the Capital Accounts of the Members as provided in Exhibit A by the amount of any gains or

EXHIBIT A ALLOCATIONS AND TAX PROCEDURES

A.1 Definitions. Capitalized words and phrases used in this Exhibit A have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Limited Liability Company Agreement of Jagged Peak Energy LLC dated effective April 3, 2013 (the “Agreement”) except as otherwise provided below. As used in this Exhibit A, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

A.1.1 “Capital Account” means, with respect to any Member, the capital account maintained for such Member in accordance with the following provisions:

A.1.1(a) To each Member’s Capital Account there shall be credited (i) the amount of cash and the Gross Asset Value of any assets contributed by the Member under the Agreement, (ii) such Member’s distributive share of Profits and any items in the nature of income or gain which are specially allocated pursuant to Section A.4 or Section A.5 hereof, and (iii) the amount of any Company liabilities assumed by such Member or which are secured by any property distributed to such Member. The principal amount of a promissory note which is not readily tradable on an established securities market and which is contributed to the Company by the maker of the note (or a Member related to the maker of the note within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c)) shall not be included in the Capital Account of any Member until the Company makes a taxable disposition of the note or until (and to the extent) principal payments are made on the note, all in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(d)(2).

A.1.1(b) To each Member’s Capital Account there shall be debited (i) the amount of cash and the Gross Asset Value of any property distributed to such Member pursuant to any provision of the Agreement, (ii) such Member’s distributive share of Losses and any items in the nature of expenses or losses which are specially allocated pursuant to Section A.4 or Section A.5 hereof, and (iii) the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company or which are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company.

A.1.1(c) In the event all or a portion of a Member’s Interest is Transferred in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the Transferred Interest; and

A.1.1(d) In determining the amount of any liability for purposes of Section A.1.1(a) and Section A.1.1(b) above, there shall be taken into account Section 752(c) of the Code and any other applicable provisions of the Code and Treasury Regulations.

A.1.1(e) The foregoing provisions and the other provisions of the Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to

comply with Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b), and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. In the event the Manager shall determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto (including debits or credits relating to liabilities which are secured by contributed or distributed property or which are assumed by the Company or the Members), are computed in order to comply with Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b), the Manager may make such modification, provided, that it does not have an adverse effect on the amount or timing of a distribution to any Member pursuant to the Agreement. The Manager also shall (i) make any adjustments that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between the Capital Accounts of the Members and the amount of Company capital reflected on the Company’s balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(q), and (ii) make any appropriate modifications in the event unanticipated events might otherwise cause the Agreement not to comply with Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b), provided, that, such adjustment may not have an adverse effect on any Member who does not consent to such adjustment.

A.1.2 “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and in effect from time to time, as interpreted by the applicable regulations thereunder.

A.1.3 “Gross Asset Value” means, with respect to any asset, the asset’s adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, except as follows:

A.1.3(a) The initial Gross Asset Value of any asset contributed by a Member to the Company shall be the gross fair market value of such asset as determined by the Manager.

A.1.3(b) The Gross Asset Values of all Company assets shall be adjusted to equal their respective gross fair market values (taking section 7701(g) of the Code into account) as determined by the Manager, as of the following times: (i) the acquisition of an additional Interest in the Company by any new or existing Member in exchange for more than a de minimis capital contribution, (ii) the distribution by the Company to a Member of more than a de minimis amount of property as consideration for an Interest in the Company, (iii) the liquidation of the Company within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), and (iv) the grant of more than a de minimis interest in the Company in consideration for the provision of services to or for the benefit of the Company by a new or existing Member; provided, however, that adjustments pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) above shall be made only if the Manager reasonably determines that such adjustments are necessary or appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Members in the Company.

A.1.3(c) The Gross Asset Value of any Company asset distributed to any Member shall be adjusted to equal the gross fair market value (taking section 7701(g) of the Code into account) of such asset on the date of distribution.

A.1.3(d) The Gross Asset Values of Company assets shall be increased (or decreased) to reflect any adjustments to the adjusted basis of such assets pursuant to section 734(b) or section 743(b) of the Code, but only to the extent that such adjustments are taken into account in determining Capital Accounts pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), subparagraph (f) of the definition of “Profits” and “Losses” and Section A.4.3 hereof; provided, however, that Gross Asset Values shall not be adjusted pursuant to this subparagraph (d) to the extent the Manager determines that an adjustment pursuant to subparagraph (b) hereof is necessary or appropriate in connection with a transaction that would otherwise result in an adjustment pursuant to this subparagraph (d).

A.1.3(e) If the Gross Asset Value of an asset has been determined or adjusted pursuant to subparagraphs (a), (b) or (d) hereof, such Gross Asset Value shall thereafter be adjusted by the depreciation or cost recovery deductions taken into account with respect to such asset for purposes of computing Profits and Losses.

A.1.4 “Partially Adjusted Capital Account” shall mean with respect to any Member and any Fiscal Year, the Capital Account of such Member at the beginning of such Fiscal Year, adjusted as set forth in the definition of Capital Account for all contributions and distributions during such year and all special allocations pursuant to Section A.4 (other than Section A.4.3) and Section A.5 hereof with respect to such Fiscal Year, but before giving effect to any allocations of Profits and Losses for such Fiscal Year pursuant to Section A.2 and Section A.3.

A.1.5 “Profits” and “Losses” means, for each Fiscal Year, an amount equal to the aggregate (if positive or negative respectively) of the Company’s items of income or loss for federal income tax purposes for such Fiscal Year, determined in accordance with section 703(a) of the Code (for this purpose, all items of income, gain, loss, or deduction required to be stated separately pursuant to section 703(a)(1) of the Code shall be included in taxable income or loss), with the following adjustments (without duplication) as to such items:

expenditures pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(l), and not otherwise taken into account in computing Profits or Losses pursuant to this definition of “Profits” and “Losses” shall be subtracted from such taxable income or loss.

A.1.5(c) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraphs (b) or (c) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value,” the amount of such adjustment shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the Gross Asset Value of the asset) or an item of loss (if the adjustment decreases the Gross Asset Value of the asset) from the disposition of such asset and shall be taken into account for purposes of computing Profits or Losses.

A.1.5(d) Gain or loss resulting from any disposition of property with respect to which gain or loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the Gross Asset Value of the property disposed of, notwithstanding that the adjusted tax basis of such property differs from its Gross Asset Value.

A.1.5(e) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to section 734(b) or section 743(b) of the Code is required pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as a result of a distribution other than in complete liquidation of a Member’s interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) from the disposition of such asset and shall be taken into account for purposes of computing Profits or Losses.

A.1.5(f) Any items which are specially allocated pursuant to Section A.4 or Section A.5 hereof shall not be taken into account in computing Profits or Losses. The amounts of the items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction available to be specially allocated pursuant to Section A.4 or Section A.5 hereof shall be determined by applying rules analogous to those set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (f) above.

A.1.6 “Regulatory Allocations” has the meaning set forth in Section A.5 hereof.

A.1.7 “Target Capital Account” means, with respect to any Member and for any Fiscal Year,:

A.1.7(a) The amount, if any, that a Member would receive pursuant to the provisions hereof if all Company assets were sold for cash equal to their Gross Asset Value, all Company liabilities were satisfied to the extent required by their terms (limited, with respect to any nonrecourse liability, to the Gross Asset Value of the assets securing each such liability), and the remaining assets were

distributed in full to the Members pursuant to Article 8 of the Agreement, all as of the last day of such year.

A.1.7(b) Less, the contribution that such Member would be required to make pursuant to Section 8.2(c) of the Agreement immediately prior to the hypothetical distribution that is described in Section A.1.7(a).

A.1.8 “Treasury Regulation” or “Treas. Reg.” means any temporary or final income tax regulation issued by the United States Treasury Department.

A.2 Profits. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section A.4 and Section A.5 hereof, Profits for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated in the following order and priority:

Profits for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members so as to reduce, proportionately, the differences between their respective Target Capital Accounts and Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts for such Fiscal Year. No portion of the Profits for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated to a Member whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is greater than or equal to its Target Capital Account for such Fiscal Year.

A.3 Losses. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section A.4 and Section A.5 hereof, Losses for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated as set forth in Section A.3.1 below, subject to the limitation in Section A.3.2 below:

A.3.1 Losses for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to the differences between their respective Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts and Target Capital Accounts for such Fiscal Year.

A.3.2 The Losses allocated pursuant to Section A.3.1 hereof shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses that can be so allocated without causing any Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Fiscal Year. In the event some but not all of the Members would have Adjusted Capital Account Deficits as a consequence of an allocation of Losses pursuant to Section A.3.1, the limitation set forth in this Section A.3.2 shall be applied on a Member by Member basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible Losses to each Member under Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

A.4 Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order and priority:

A.4.1 Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treas. Reg. §§1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5) or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Member as quickly as possible, provided, that

an allocation pursuant to this Section A.4.1 shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Exhibit A have been tentatively made as if this Section A.4.1 were not in this Exhibit A. This Section A.4.1 is intended to comply with the qualified income offset requirement in Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

A.4.2 Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of the Agreement or this Exhibit A and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treas. Reg. §§1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section A.4.2 shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in the Agreement or this Exhibit A have been made as if Section A.4.11 hereof and this Section 2 were not in this Exhibit A.

A.4.3 Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of its interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their Sharing Ratios in effect at the time of such adjustment in the event that Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Member to whom such distribution was made in the event that Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

A.4.4 Additional Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made:

A.4.4(a) If the Company has Profits for any Fiscal Year (determined before giving effect to any allocation pursuant to this Section A.4.4(a)), any Member whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is greater than its Target Capital Account for such Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated items of Member deduction or loss for such Fiscal Year equal to the difference between its Target Capital Account and its Partially Adjusted Capital Account. In the event the Company has insufficient items of deduction and loss for such Fiscal Year to satisfy the previous sentence with respect to all such Members, the available items of deduction and loss shall be divided among such Members in proportion to their differences.

A.4.4(b) If the Company has a Loss for any Fiscal Year (determined prior to giving effect to any allocation pursuant to this Section A.4.4(b)), any Member whose Target Capital Account is greater than its Partially Adjusted Capital Account for such Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated items of Company income or gain for such Fiscal Year equal to the difference between its Partially Adjusted Capital Account and Target Capital Account. In the event the Company has insufficient items of income or gain for such Fiscal Year to satisfy the previous sentence with respect to all such Members, the available items of income or gain shall be divided among such Members in proportion to such differences.

A.4.4(c) The availability of items of income, gain, loss or deduction to be specially allocated pursuant to this Section A.4.4 shall be determined after giving full effect to all of the preceding provisions of Section A.4.

A.5 Intent of Allocations. The parties intend that the allocation provisions of this Exhibit A shall produce final Capital Account balances of each of the Members that will permit liquidating distributions in accordance with Article 8 of the Agreement to be equal to the Capital Account balance of each Member immediately before such liquidating distributions. To the extent that the allocations required in this Exhibit A would fail to produce such final Capital Account balances, (i) such allocation provisions shall be amended by the Manager if and to the extent necessary to produce such result and (ii) items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction for prior open taxable years shall be reallocated by the Manager among the Members to the extent it is not possible to achieve such result with allocations of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction for the current taxable year and future taxable years.

A.6 Other Allocation Rules.

A.6.1 Profits, Losses or any other items allocable to any period shall be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the Manager using any permissible method under section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

A.6.2 The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made in the Agreement and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of the Agreement in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

A.7 Tax Allocations; Section 704(c) of the Code.

A.7.1 In accordance with section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross

Asset Value (computed in accordance with subparagraph (a) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value”). The Manager shall select a method for amortizing Section 704(c) gain or loss and reverse Section 704(c) gain or loss as applicable under Treas. Reg. §1.704-3(c) with respect to each item of contributed property.

A.7.2 In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value,” subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

A.7.3 Subject to Section A.8, any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Manager. Allocations pursuant to this Section A.7 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of the Agreement.

A.7.4 Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, all items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction, and any other allocations not otherwise provided for shall be divided among the Members in the same proportions as the corresponding item of income, gain, loss and deduction was allocated for Capital Account purpose. For purposes of determining the nature (as ordinary or capital) of any Company gain allocated among the Members for Federal income tax purposes pursuant to the Agreement, the portion of such gain required to be recognized as ordinary income pursuant to section 1245 and/or section 1250 of the Code shall be deemed to be allocated among the Members in accordance with Treas. Reg. §§1.1245-1(e)(2) and 1.1250-1(f). Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, in the event that any deductions that have been allocated to the Members are recaptured, the recaptured amounts will be allocated to the Members that received the deductions

A.8 Reliance on Advice of Accountants and Attorneys. The Manager will have no liability to the Members or the Company if the Manager relies upon the written opinion of tax counsel or accountants retained by the Company with respect to all matters (including disputes) relating to computations and determinations required to be made under this Exhibit A or other related provision.
