This LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of December 24, 2013 by and among Lone Oak Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands company (the “Company”), and each of the persons or entities set forth on Exhibit A hereto (each, an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”).

WHEREAS, the parties hereto entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of October 23, 2013, by and among the Company, Arabella Exploration Corp., a Delaware corporation, Arabella Exploration, Limited Liability Company, a Texas limited liability company, and the Investors (the “Merger Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement, each Investor has agreed not to sell any of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) that represent Closing Payment Shares or Earnout Payment Shares issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Lock-Up Shares”), except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and conditions hereinafter contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.          Restriction on Transfer; Term. Each Investor hereby agrees not to offer, sell, contract to sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate, gift, pledge or grant a security interest in, or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition of (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise, directly or indirectly) (each, a “Transfer”) a number of Lock-Up Shares in excess of 33% of such Investor’s original number of Closing Payment Shares or Earnout Payment Shares within any consecutive 365-day period following the Closing Date; provided that such lock-up shall expire and be of no further force or effect three years following the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Investor shall be permitted to engage in a Transfer in a private sale of any or all of the Lock-Up Shares, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

2.          Ownership. During the Lock-Up Period, each Investor shall retain all rights of ownership in the Lock-Up Shares, including, without limitation, voting rights and the right to receive any dividends that may be declared in respect thereof.

3.          Company and Transfer Agent. The Company is hereby authorized and required to disclose the existence of this Agreement to its transfer agent. The Company and its transfer agent are hereby authorized and required to decline to make any transfer of the Ordinary Shares if, in the reasonable judgment of the Company (of which it shall promptly notify the proposed transferor of Ordinary Shares) such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Agreement.
