In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement (“Closing”), the Contribution Agreement provides that the Issuer shall cause its board of directors (the “Board”) to consist of (i) the chief executive officer of the Issuer following Closing, (ii) three (3) directors designated by Blackstone Energy Partners II L.P., (iii) two (2) directors designated by ISQ Global Infrastructure Fund II L.P. (“ISQ”), (iv) one (1) director designated by APA Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“APA”), and (v) four (4) directors that would qualify as independent for purposes of service on the audit committee of the Issuer under NASDAQ rules, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, two (2) of whom shall be designated by APA and two (2) of whom shall be designated by New Raptor; provided, that each of APA and New Raptor shall have one (1) (but no more than one (1)) opportunity to veto one (1) of such other person’s designees under this clause (v) in its sole discretion but shall have no further veto or similar right with respect to any other designee of such person under this clause (v) (collectively, the “Contribution Agreement Board Composition”).

At Closing, the Contribution Agreement also provides that the Issuer’s existing registration rights agreement will be amended and restated to, among other things, add the Subject Shareholders following Closing as parties to such agreement and provide registration rights related to the Equity Consideration.

The Contribution Agreement provides that, following stockholder approval and in connection with Closing, the Issuer shall duly execute and submit the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation as well as duly adopt the Amended and Restated Bylaws, in each case in a form attached to the Contribution Agreement, and which provide, among other things and subject to certain limitations and exceptions, (i) stockholders of the Issuer may act by written consent in lieu of holding a meeting of the stockholders, (ii) stockholders of the Issuer that own more than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock may call a special meeting of the stockholders, (iii) directors on the Board may be removed with or without cause and (iv) revisions to the Corporate Opportunities article in the Issuer’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, among other things, Apache Midstream agreed, among other things and subject to certain limitations and exceptions, to vote all shares of Common Stock constituting Covered Securities beneficially owned by Apache Midstream in favor of the adoption of the Contribution Agreement and any other matters necessary for consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Transactions”) in a manner to facilitate consummation of the Transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement (the “Transaction Matters”), and granted to Raptor an irrevocable proxy to vote such Covered Securities in accordance with the foregoing. One such exception is if the Board makes a Change in Company Recommendation (as defined in the Contribution Agreement), the number of shares of Common Stock constituting Covered Securities that are required to vote in favor of the Transaction Matters shall only represent (a) 35% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock plus (b) a percentage of all shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Apache Midstream not covered by clause (a) equal to the percentage of shares of Common Stock not beneficially owned by Apache Midstream (“Non-Apache Shares”) that vote in favor of Transaction Matters relative to the number of Non-Apache Shares that vote in favor of or against the Transaction Matters.

In addition, pursuant to the Voting Agreement, Apache Midstream has agreed, subject to certain limitations and exceptions, not to Transfer (as defined in the Voting Agreement) any or all of the Covered Securities beneficially owned by Apache Midstream or deposit any such Covered Securities into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Covered Securities or grant any proxy (except as provided in the Voting Agreement) or power of attorney with respect thereto.

The Voting Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of: (a) the Closing Date (as therein defined); and (b) the termination of the Contribution Agreement pursuant to and in compliance with the terms thereof.

The foregoing summary of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Voting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit C to this Schedule 13D and is also incorporated herein by reference.

A&R Stockholders Agreement

On October 21, 2021, the Issuer entered into an amended and restated stockholders agreement (“A&R SHA”) with APA, Apache Midstream, New Raptor, certain other affiliates of the Reporting Persons who will own the Equity Consideration immediately following Closing (“Subject Shareholders”) and, solely for purposes of Sections 2(a)(iv) and 2(a)(v), Raptor.

The A&R SHA becomes effective immediately prior to, and conditioned upon, the Closing; provided that effective as of October 21, 2021 the parties to the A&R SHA agreed to negotiate and enter into a dividend reinvestment plan that shall be implemented shortly following Closing, be open to all holders of Common Stock, and require the Subject Shareholders and Apache Midstream to reinvest in such plan through 2023 at least 20% and up to 100% (as determined by the audit committee of the Board) of their respective quarterly dividends from Common Units and shares of Class A Common Stock held by such persons immediately following Closing.

Pursuant to the A&R SHA, the Subject Shareholders and Apache Midstream agreed, subject to certain limitations and exceptions, not to Transfer (as defined in the A&R SHA) Subject Securities (as defined in the A&R SHA) for 12 months following the Closing. The A&R SHA also provides that, subject to applicable law and other limitations, following Closing the Issuer shall not reduce its dividends on shares of Class A Common Stock below $1.50 a quarter through December 31, 2023 without the prior written consent of Apache Midstream and certain affiliates of Blackstone and ISQ for so long as such persons are entitled to nominate a director pursuant to the A&R SHA. Pursuant to the A&R SHA, any Covered Related Party Transaction (as defined in the A&R SHA) following Closing requires the prior approval of 66% or more of the disinterested directors on the Board, as determined by the Board.

Following Closing, the A&R SHA provides for continuing director nomination rights consistent with clauses (ii) – (v) of the Contribution Agreement Board Composition and that an affiliate of Blackstone will have the right for a director it nominates to serve as the non-executive chairperson of the Board until December 31, 2024, subject in each case to certain limitations and reduced nomination rights depending on respective percentage ownership of the outstanding shares of Common Stock by such persons and their respective affiliates.

On October 21, 2021, and effective upon the Closing, the Issuer also entered into a voting agreement with certain affiliates of Blackstone (the “Post-Closing Voting Agreement”) pursuant to which such Blackstone affiliates agreed to vote all shares of Common Stock they beneficially own in favor of individuals designated to the Board pursuant to the A&R SHA. APA and Apache Midstream as well as an affiliate of ISQ also entered into separate similar voting agreements with the Issuer that shall be effective upon the Closing. The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim that they are a member of a “group” with any of such entities for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or otherwise.

The foregoing description of the A&R SHA and the Post-Closing Voting Agreement do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the A&R SHA and the Post-Closing Voting Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits D and E, respectively, and are each also incorporated herein by reference.

COVENANTS

5.1 Regulatory Approvals.

(a) Except for the filings and notifications made pursuant to Antitrust Laws to which Sections 5.1(b) and 5.1(c), and not this Section 5.1(a), shall apply, promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Parties shall proceed to prepare and file with the appropriate Governmental Entities and other third parties all authorizations, consents, notifications, certifications, registrations, declarations and filings that are necessary in order to consummate the Transactions and shall diligently and expeditiously prosecute, and shall cooperate fully with each other in the prosecution of, such matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall either the Company or Contributor or any of their respective Affiliates be required to pay any consideration to any third parties or give anything of value to obtain any such Person’s authorization, approval, consent or waiver to effectuate the Transactions, other than filing, recordation or similar fees. Contributor and the Company shall have the right to review in advance and, to the extent reasonably practicable, each will consult with the other on and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, all of the information relating to Contributor or the Company, as applicable, and any of their respective Subsidiaries, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions (including the Proxy Statement). The Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall not agree to any actions, restrictions or conditions with respect to obtaining any consents, registrations, approvals, permits, expirations of waiting periods or authorizations in connection with the Transactions without the prior written consent of Contributor (which consent, subject to Section 5.1(b), may be withheld in Contributor’s sole discretion).

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement, but in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days following the Execution Date, the Parties (or their ultimate parents) shall make any filings required under the HSR Act. Each of Contributor and the Company shall cooperate fully with each other and shall furnish to the other such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of any filings and in connection with obtaining all required consents, authorizations, orders, expirations, terminations, waivers, or approvals under any applicable Antitrust Laws. Unless otherwise agreed, Contributor

-60-

and the Company shall each use reasonable best efforts to ensure the prompt expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act. Contributor and the Company shall each use reasonable best efforts to promptly respond to any request for information or documents from any Governmental Entity charged with enforcing, applying, administering, or investigating the HSR Act or any other Laws designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions for the purpose or effect of mergers, acquisitions, monopolization, restraining trade or abusing a dominant position (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”), including the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice, any attorney general of any state of the United States (“Antitrust Authority”). Contributor and the Company shall keep each other apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests for additional information from any Antitrust Authority, and shall promptly provide each other with copies of any written communications with any Antitrust Authority. In connection with the efforts referenced in this Section 5.1 to obtain all requisite approvals and authorizations for the Transactions under the HSR Act, any other Antitrust Law, or any state law, each of the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party, (ii) provide each other with advance copies and a reasonable opportunity to comment on all proposed notices, submissions, filings, applications, undertakings, and information and correspondence proposed to be supplied to or filed with any Antitrust Authority, except the Parties’ HSR Act filings, regarding any of the Transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) resolve any objections as may be asserted by any Antitrust Authority with respect to the Transactions, (iv) contest and resist any Proceeding instituted (or threatened in writing to be instituted) by any Antitrust Authority challenging the Transactions or this Agreement as being in violation of any Law, and (v) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, provide Contributor or the Company, as applicable, a reasonable opportunity to attend and participate in any meetings, discussions, telephone conversations, or correspondence with an Antitrust Authority; provided that materials required to be provided pursuant to this section may be redacted (1) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company or the Contributor Subsidiaries, (2) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, (3) as necessary to comply with applicable law, and (4) as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns. The foregoing obligations in this Section 5.1(b) shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and any attorney-client, work product or other privilege. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Parties nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to, and none of the Parties may, nor shall any of them permit their Subsidiaries to, without the prior written consent of the other Parties hereto, take any action that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, revenue or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation or amortization of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, from and after the Closing; provided further, however, that any action taken pursuant to this Section 5.1(b) may be conditioned upon the Closing.

(c) Contributor and the Company shall not take any action that could reasonably be expected to hinder or delay in any material respect the expiration or termination of the required waiting period under the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Laws, or any consent or approval required pursuant to any other applicable Antitrust Laws.

5.2 Access.

(a) Subject to applicable Law, from the Execution Date until the Closing Date or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement (the “Interim Period”), each Party (the “Disclosing Party”) shall provide the other Parties (each a “Receiving Party”), their Affiliates, and their respective Representatives with reasonable access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours, to all assets, books and records, contracts, documents, officers, employees, agents, legal advisors, and accountants of the Disclosing Party and its Subsidiaries, and the Disclosing Party shall furnish reasonably promptly to the Receiving Party and its Representatives such information concerning the Disclosing Party and its Subsidiaries and their assets, business, books and records, contracts, and personnel as may be reasonably requested, from time to time, by or on behalf of the Receiving Party. The Receiving Party shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, conduct any such activities in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the business of the Disclosing Party or its Subsidiaries. The Disclosing Party shall have the right to have a Representative present for any communication with employees of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates, and each Party shall and shall cause its Representatives to observe and comply with all applicable health, safety, and security requirements, including COVID-19 Measures, of the Disclosing Party and its Subsidiaries if the Receiving Party exercises its rights to access any assets of the Disclosing Party or its Subsidiaries under this Section 5.2(a). Neither Receiving Party nor its Representatives shall contact any of the employees, customers, suppliers, or parties that have business relationships with the Disclosing Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the Transactions without the specific prior written authorization of the Disclosing Party. For purposes of clarification, the Receiving Party and its Representatives shall be permitted to conduct non-invasive environmental assessments, including any Phase I environmental site assessments in accordance with ASTM Standard E1527-13, but Contributor and its Representatives shall not be entitled to collect any air, soil, surface water, or ground water samples, nor to perform any invasive or destructive sampling on, under, at, or from the real property owned or leased by the Disclosing Party or its Subsidiaries. No investigation or information provided pursuant to this Section 5.2(a) shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by any Party herein. The Receiving Party shall hold in confidence all information disclosed to the Receiving Party or its Representatives hereunder on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.2(a), the Receiving Party shall have no right of access to, and neither the Disclosing Party nor any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to provide, any information the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to (i) jeopardize any privilege available to the Disclosing Party or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, (ii) cause the Disclosing Party or any of its Affiliates or Representatives to breach a contract, or (iii) result in a violation of Law; provided that, in the event that the restrictions in this sentence apply, the Disclosing Party shall provide the Receiving Party with a reasonably detailed description of the information not provided, and the Disclosing Party shall cooperate in good faith to design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements to enable Contributor to evaluate such information without violating such Law or contract or jeopardizing such privilege. Promptly upon completion of any such access, the Receiving Party shall repair at its sole expense any damage caused by such access.

-62-

(b) The Receiving Party agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Disclosing Party, its Affiliates, and its and their respective Representatives for any and all Losses incurred by the Disclosing Party, its Affiliates, or its or their respective Representatives arising solely as a result of actions taken by the Receiving Party or its Representatives pursuant to the access rights under Section 5.2(a), including any Proceedings by any of the Receiving Party’s Representatives for any injuries or property damage while present, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LOSSES RESULTED FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF THE DISCLOSING PARTY, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE INTENT OF THIS SECTION 5.2(b) IS CLEAR AND UNEQUIVOCAL AND THIS STATEMENT CONSTITUTES CONSPICUOUS NOTICE.

5.3 Conduct of Business. Except for COVID-19 Measures or as specifically provided in this Agreement, during the Interim Period, each Party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, (a) conduct its operations in the ordinary course of business, in a manner materially consistent with such Party’s capital expenditure budget for 2021, a copy of which has been made available to each Party prior to the Execution Date and (b) use its reasonable best efforts to (i) preserve intact its present business organization, (ii) preserve, maintain, and protect its material assets, and (iii) maintain, with financially responsible insurance companies, insurance in such amounts and against such risks and Losses as is maintained by it at present.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties hereby agree that, following receipt of all required consents, authorizations, orders, expirations, terminations, waivers, or approvals under any applicable Antitrust Laws, the Parties will cooperate and work together in good faith on matters relating to the integration of the Company, the Partnership and the Contributed Interests, to hold weekly operations and engineering meetings and to start preliminary work evaluating and planning with respect to the physical interconnection of the Partnership’s natural gas system with the natural gas systems of the Contributed Entities.

5.5 Tax Matters.

(a) The Partnership shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns of the Contributor Subsidiaries that are required to be filed after the Closing Date in accordance with the Third A&R LP Agreement, and such Tax Returns shall be prepared on a basis consistent with past practice except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law. The Parties acknowledge that Contributor shall be solely responsible for the preparation and filing of its U.S. federal income Tax Return, including as successor to Raptor, for the taxable year that includes the Closing.

-68-

(b) The Partnership, the Company, and Contributor shall cooperate fully, and shall cause the Contributor Subsidiaries to cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the Partnership, the Company, or Contributor, as the case may be, in connection with the preparation, review, and filing of Tax Returns and any audit or Proceeding with respect to Taxes imposed on or with respect to the assets, operations, or activities of the Contributor Subsidiaries. Such cooperation shall include the retention and, upon the request of the Partnership, the Company, or Contributor, the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or audit or Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Partnership, the Company, and Contributor further agree, upon request, to use reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce, or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed on Contributor, the Partnership, the Company, or the Contributor Subsidiaries, as the case may be.

(c) In the event that any Transfer Taxes are imposed on the Transactions, the Partnership shall prepare and timely file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to, and shall pay or cause to be paid, all such Transfer Taxes. If required by applicable Law, the other Parties will reasonably cooperate and join in the execution of any Tax Returns and other documentation. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate and consult with each other to minimize, to the extent permissible under applicable Law, any such Transfer Taxes.

(d) Other than any customary Tax sharing or indemnification provisions contained in any agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business and not primarily relating to Tax (e.g., leases, credit agreements, or other commercial agreements), all Tax allocation, sharing, or similar agreements between a Contributor Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Contributor or any of its Affiliates (other than the Contributor Subsidiaries), on the other hand, shall be terminated prior to the Closing Date, and, after the Closing Date, no Contributor Subsidiary shall be bound thereby or have any Liability thereunder.

(e) The Parties intend that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and for purposes of any applicable state or local income Tax that follows U.S. federal income tax treatment), (i) the Contribution be treated as a contribution of property to the Partnership under Section 721(a) of the Code and (ii) each liability of the Contributor Subsidiaries or to which their assets are subject that is assumed by the Partnership in connection with the Contribution be treated as a “qualified liability” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(a)(6)(i)) except to the extent the Partnership, after Closing, has received advice from a nationally recognized accounting or law firm that such liability would more likely than not be treated otherwise. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Class C Consideration has no value; provided, however, that, if any value were ascribed to such shares, the receipt of the Class C Consideration by Contributor would be properly

-69-

treated as a reimbursement of Contributor’s preformation capital expenditures within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-4(d), to the extent permitted by Law. The Parties shall (A) use reasonable best efforts to cause the Contribution to qualify for the intended Tax treatment set forth in this Section 5.5(e), (B) take no action (whether or not otherwise permitted under this Agreement), which action would prevent or impede, or that could reasonably be expected to prevent or impede, the Contribution from qualifying for the intended Tax treatment set forth in this Section 5.5(e), (C) prepare and file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with this Section 5.5(e), and (D) take no position inconsistent with this Section 5.5(e) in any Tax Return, Tax-related Proceeding or otherwise absent a determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code to the contrary.

(f) The Parties agree that, as provided for in the Third A&R LP Agreement, with respect to the assets contributed by Contributor to the Partnership, the Partnership shall use the “traditional allocation method” as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b).

(g) Within 120 days following the Closing Date, Contributor shall deliver to the Partnership and the Company a statement reflecting a valuation of all of the assets of the Contributor Subsidiaries (the “Tax Allocation Statement”). The Parties shall cooperate fully as and to the extent reasonably requested by another Party in respect of the preparation of the Tax Allocation Statement. The Partnership and the Company shall have forty-five (45) days from the delivery of the Tax Allocation Statement by Contributor to contest the allocations set forth in the Tax Allocation Statement by notifying the other Parties in writing and providing a detailed written explanation (including relevant workpapers) of the items contested by the Partnership or the Company. If the Partnership or the Company timely contests the Tax Allocation Statement, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to promptly resolve any disputes with respect to the Tax Allocation Statement. If the Parties are unable to resolve any disputed item in the Tax Allocation Statement within thirty (30) days after the Contributor’s receipt of any contested items (or such other time period mutually agreed to by the Parties), such item shall be determined by a nationally-recognized accounting firm, mutually agreed to by the Parties (the “Independent Accountant”). Within thirty (30) days following submission to the Independent Accountant, the Independent Accountant will prepare and deliver a written determination to the Parties with respect to any disputed item, with the Company and Contributor each bearing 50% of the costs associated with the Independent Accountant. The allocation schedule, as agreed to by the Parties or as finally determined by the Independent Accountant (or, if neither the Partnership nor the Company timely contests the Tax Allocation Statement pursuant to this Section 5.5(g), as delivered by the Contributor pursuant to this Section 5.5(g)) (the “Final Allocation”) shall be final and shall be binding upon the Parties. The Parties agree to act in accordance with the Final Allocation, in the preparation, filing, and audit of any Tax Return, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, including for purposes of applying Section 704 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder; provided, however, that no Party shall be unreasonably impeded in its ability and discretion to negotiate, compromise, and/or settle any Tax audit, claim, or similar proceeding in connection with the Final Allocation.

5.8 The Proxy Statement and the Special Meeting.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Execution Date, the Company and Contributor shall use reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC as promptly as practicable, a proxy statement with respect to the Transactions for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval (the “Proxy Statement”) in preliminary form. The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify Contributor of any correspondence with the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement, the receipt of any oral or written comments from the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement, and any request by the SEC for any amendment to the Proxy Statement or for additional information. The Company and Contributor shall cooperate with respect to the review of and any comments to the Proxy Statement (including each amendment or supplement thereto) and all responses to requests for additional information by and replies to comments of the SEC, and the Parties will provide each other with copies of all such filings made and correspondence with the SEC. The Company and Contributor will use reasonable best efforts to respond promptly to any comments made by the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement. In furtherance of the foregoing, prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, the Company will (A) provide the Contributor Parties with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response (including the proposed final version of such document or response), (B) consider in good faith all comments reasonably proposed by the Contributing Parties and (C) not include in such document or response any information regarding the Contributing Parties or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective assets or operations prior to receiving the approval of Contributor, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such information is supplied by Contributor expressly for inclusion in the Proxy Statement and such information is included in the Proxy Statement without substantive modification. The Company will cause the Proxy Statement to be transmitted to the holders of Company Common Stock as promptly as practicable following the date on which the SEC confirms it has no further comments on the Proxy Statement.

(b) Contributor and the Company acknowledge that a substantial portion of the Proxy Statement and other filings to be made by the Company with the SEC shall include disclosure regarding Contributor, the Company, their respective Subsidiaries, and their respective Subsidiaries’ management, operations, and financial condition. Accordingly, each of the Contributor and the Company will use reasonable best efforts to provide the Company or Contributor, respectively, with all information concerning Contributor, the Company, their respective Subsidiaries, and their respective Subsidiaries’ management, operations, and financial condition, as applicable, in each case, required to be included in the Proxy Statement or such other filings, including the required financial statements of the Contributor Subsidiaries, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, as applicable, prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X and a related consent from the Contributor Subsidiaries’ or the Company’s and the Company Subsidiaries’ independent public accountants, as applicable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Contributor and the Company shall cooperate in connection with the preparation for inclusion in the Proxy Statement of pro forma financial statements that comply with the requirements of Regulation S-X. Each of Contributor and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause and make its managers, directors, and officers available to the Company or Contributor, respectively, and its respective counsel in connection with the drafting of the Proxy Statement and any other filings required to be made by the Company with the SEC and respond in a timely manner to comments on the Proxy Statement or such other filings from the SEC.

-72-

(c) The Company will take, in accordance with applicable Law, NASDAQ rules, and the Organizational Documents of the Company, all action necessary to call, hold, and convene a special meeting of holders of Company Common Stock (including any permitted adjournment or postponement, the “Special Meeting”) for the purpose of obtaining the Stockholder Approval as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing of the Proxy Statement in definitive form with the SEC (and in any event will use reasonable best efforts to convene such meeting within forty-five (45) days thereof). Once the Special Meeting to obtain the Stockholder Approval has been called and noticed, the Company will not postpone or adjourn the Special Meeting without the consent of Contributor, other than to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that the Company has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal advisors, is necessary under applicable Law, and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated to and reviewed by the holders of Company Common Stock prior to the Special Meeting; provided, however, that the Special Meeting shall not be adjourned or postponed to a date on or after two (2) Business Days prior to the Outside Date. Subject to Section 5.9(e), (w) the Company will take all reasonable lawful action to solicit the Stockholder Approval, (x) the Company Board shall recommend that the holders of Company Common Stock approve the Transactions, (y) the Company Board shall solicit from the holders of Company Common Stock proxies in favor of the Transactions, and (z) the Proxy Statement shall include the Company Board Recommendation. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to provide Contributor with voting tabulation reports relating to the Special Meeting that have been prepared by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent, proxy solicitor or other Representative, and shall otherwise keep Contributor reasonably informed regarding the status of the solicitation of votes with respect thereto. Once the Company has established a record date for the Special Meeting, the Company shall not change such record date or establish a different record date for the Special Meeting without the prior written consent of Contributor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless required to do so by applicable Law or the Company’s Organizational Documents or in connection with a postponement or adjournment permitted hereunder.

(d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Article VIII, the Company agrees that its obligations to hold the Special Meeting pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall not be affected by the making of a Company Change of Recommendation and, except as expressly provided otherwise in this Section 5.8, its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall not be affected by the commencement, announcement, disclosure, or communication to the Company of any Company Competing Proposal or other proposal (including a Company Superior Proposal) or the occurrence or disclosure of any Company Intervening Event.

-73-

(e) If at any time prior to the date of the Special Meeting, any event, circumstance, or information relating to the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, Contributor, or the Contributor Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers or directors, should be discovered by the Company, Partnership, or Contributor that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be filed as promptly as practicable with the SEC by the Company and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the holders of Company Common Stock.

5.9 No Solicitation.

(a) During the Interim Period, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.9, the Company will, and will cause the Company Subsidiaries and the Directors and Officers to, and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the other Representatives of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to, immediately cease, and cause to be terminated, any discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives with respect to any inquiry, proposal, or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, a Company Competing Proposal. Promptly after the Execution Date (and in any event within two (2) Business Days), the Company shall (i) deliver a written notice to each Person that has received non-public information regarding the Company within the six (6) months prior to the Execution Date pursuant to a confidentiality agreement with the Company for purposes of evaluating any transaction that could reasonably be expected to be a Company Competing Proposal and for whom no similar notice has been delivered prior to the Execution Date requesting the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information concerning the Company and any of the Company Subsidiaries heretofore furnished to such Person and (ii) notify each officer and director of the Company of the terms of this Section 5.9. The Company will immediately terminate any physical and electronic data access related to any such potential Company Competing Proposal previously granted to such Persons.

(b) During the Interim Period, subject to Section 5.9(e), the Company will not, and will cause the Company Subsidiaries and the Directors and Officers not to, and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the other Representatives of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly:

(i) initiate, solicit, propose, knowingly encourage, or knowingly facilitate any inquiry or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a Company Competing Proposal (it being understood that a ministerial act that is not otherwise prohibited by this Section 5.9(b)(i) (such as answering an unsolicited phone call) shall not, in and of itself, be deemed to constitute a violation of this Section 5.9(b)(i));

-74-

(ii) engage in, continue, or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person relating to, or in furtherance of a Company Competing Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Competing Proposal;

(iv) enter into any letter of intent or agreement in principle relating to, or other agreement providing for, a Company Competing Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement as provided in Section 5.9(e)(ii) entered into in compliance with Section 5.9(e)(ii)); or

(v) submit any Company Competing Proposal to the approval of the stockholders of the Company;

provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, the Directors and Officers, and any of their other respective Representatives, may, in response to an unsolicited inquiry or proposal from a Third Party, (A) seek to clarify the terms and conditions of such inquiry or proposal to determine whether such inquiry or proposal constitutes a bona fide Company Competing Proposal and (B) inform a Third Party or its Representative of the restrictions imposed by the provisions of this Section 5.9 (without conveying, requesting, or attempting to gather any other information except as otherwise specifically permitted hereunder).

(c) During the Interim Period, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) notify Contributor of the receipt by the Company (directly or indirectly) of any Company Competing Proposal or any expression of interest, inquiry, proposal, or offer with respect to a Company Competing Proposal made on or after the Execution Date, any request for non-public information or data relating to the Company or any Company Subsidiary made by any Person in connection with a Company Competing Proposal or any request for discussions or negotiations with the Company or a Representative of the Company relating to a Company Competing Proposal (including the identity of such Person), and the Company shall provide to Contributor promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) (i) an unredacted copy of any such expression of interest, inquiry, proposal, or offer with respect to a Company Competing Proposal made in writing provided to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or (ii) if any such expression of interest, inquiry, proposal, or offer with respect to a Company Competing Proposal is not (or any portion thereof is not) made in writing, a written summary of the material financial and other material terms thereof. Thereafter, the Company shall keep Contributor reasonably informed, on a prompt basis (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours), of any material development regarding the status or terms of any such expressions of interest, proposals, or offers (including any amendments thereto) or material requests with respect to such Company Competing Proposal and shall promptly (and in any

-75-

event within twenty-four (24) hours) apprise Contributor of the status of any such discussions or negotiations and provide to Contributor as soon as practicable after receipt or delivery thereof (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) copies of all material written correspondence and other material written materials provided to the Company or its Representatives from any Person. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall notify Contributor if the Company determines to begin providing information or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning a Company Competing Proposal, prior to or substantially contemporaneously with providing any such information or engaging in any such discussions or negotiations.

(d) During the Interim Period, except as permitted by Section 5.9(e), neither the Company Board (nor any committee thereof) shall:

(i) withhold, withdraw, qualify, or modify, or publicly propose or announce any intention to withhold, withdraw, qualify, or modify, in a manner adverse to Contributor, Raptor or their respective Subsidiaries, the Company Board Recommendation;

(v) in the case of a Company Competing Proposal that is structured as a tender offer or exchange offer pursuant to Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act for outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than by Contributor, Raptor or their respective Subsidiaries), fail to recommend, in a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9, against acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer by its stockholders on or prior to ten (10) Business Days (as such term is used in Rule 14d-9 of the Exchange Act) after commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer;

(vi) if a Company Competing Proposal shall have been publicly announced or disclosed (other than pursuant to the foregoing clause (v)), fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation on or prior to ten (10) Business Days after Contributor so requests in writing (which requests shall be limited to no more than once every thirty (30) days with respect to any specific Company Competing Proposal, provided that any material amendment or modification to any Company Competing Proposal (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the economic terms of the Company Competing Proposal shall be deemed material) shall be deemed to be a new Company Competing Proposal for this purpose); or

-76-

(vii) cause or permit the Company to enter into a Company Alternative Acquisition Agreement (together with any of the actions set forth in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), and (vi), a “Company Change of Recommendation”).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(i) the Company Board may after consultation with its outside legal counsel, make such disclosures as the Company Board determines in good faith are necessary to comply with Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or other disclosure required to be made in the Proxy Statement by applicable U.S. federal securities laws (including a “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act); provided, however, that this Section 5.9(e)(i) shall not be deemed to permit the Company Board to make a Company Change of Recommendation except to the extent permitted by Section 5.9(e)(iii) or Section 5.9(e)(iv);

(ii) prior to, but not after, the receipt of the Stockholder Approval, the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, and their respective Representatives may engage in the activities described in Sections 5.9(b)(ii) and 5.9(b)(iii) (it being understood that Section 5.9(b)(i) shall not prohibit actions otherwise permitted by this Section 5.9(e)(ii)) with any Person if (A) the Company receives a bona fide written Company Competing Proposal from such Person that was not solicited at any time following the execution of this Agreement by the Company, any Company Subsidiaries, Artemis Sponsor, their respective officers or directors, or any the other Representatives of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, (B) such Company Competing Proposal did not otherwise arise from a material breach of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.9; provided, however, that (1) no information that is prohibited from being furnished pursuant to Section 5.9(b) may be furnished until the Company receives an executed confidentiality agreement from such Person containing limitations on the use and disclosure of non-public information furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company that are no less favorable to the Company in the aggregate than the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, further, that such confidentiality agreement does not contain provisions which prohibit the Company from providing any information to Contributor in accordance with this Section 5.9 or that otherwise prohibits the Company from complying with this Section 5.9, (2) that any such non-public information has previously been made available to, or is made available to, Contributor prior to or concurrently with (or in the case of oral non-public information only, promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours after)) the time such information is made available to such Person, and (C) prior to taking

-77-

any such actions, the Company Board or any committee thereof determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Company Competing Proposal is, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, a Company Superior Proposal, and (3) prior to taking any such actions, the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel that failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law;

(iii) prior to, but not after, the receipt of the Stockholder Approval, in response to a bona fide written Company Competing Proposal from a Third Party that was not solicited at any time following the execution of this Agreement by the Company, Artemis Sponsor, their respective officers or directors or any of their respective other Representatives and did not otherwise arise from a material breach of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.9, if the Company Board so chooses, the Company Board may effect a Company Change of Recommendation if:

(1) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Company Competing Proposal is a Company Superior Proposal;

(4) after giving such notice and prior to effecting such Company Change of Recommendation, the Company negotiates (and causes its officers, employees, financial advisor, and outside legal counsel to negotiate) in good faith with Contributor (to the extent Contributor wishes to negotiate) during such Superior Proposal Match Period to make such adjustments or revisions to the terms of this Agreement as would permit the Company Board not to take such action in response thereto; and

-78-

(5) at the end of the Superior Proposal Match Period, prior to taking action to effect a Company Change of Recommendation, the Company Board takes into account any adjustments or revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Contributor in writing in a binding proposal and any other information offered by Contributor in response to the notice, and determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the Company Competing Proposal remains a Company Superior Proposal and that the failure to effect a Company Change of Recommendation in response to such Company Superior Proposal would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, that in the event of any material amendment or material modification to any Company Superior Proposal (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the economic terms of any such Company Superior Proposal shall be deemed material), the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Contributor and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.9(e)(iii) with respect to such new written notice, except that the Superior Proposal Match Period shall be reduced to three (3) Business Days; provided, further, that any such new written notice shall in no event shorten the original Superior Proposal Match Period; and

(iv) prior to, but not after, the receipt of the Stockholder Approval, in response to a Company Intervening Event that occurs or arises after the Execution Date, the Company may, if the Company Board so chooses, effect a Company Change of Recommendation; provided, however, that such a Company Change of Recommendation may not be made unless and until:

(1) the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel that a Company Intervening Event has occurred;

(2) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to effect a Company Change of Recommendation in response to such Company Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law;

(3) the Company provides Contributor written notice of such proposed action and the basis therefore at least four (4) Business Days in advance (the period inclusive of all such days, the “Intervening Event Match Period”) which notice shall set forth in writing that the Company Board intends to consider whether to take such action and includes a reasonably detailed description of the facts and circumstances of the Company Intervening Event;

(4) after giving such notice and prior to effecting such Company Change of Recommendation, the Company negotiates (and causes its officers, employees, financial advisor, and outside legal counsel to negotiate) in good faith with Contributor (to the extent Contributor wishes to negotiate) during such Intervening Event Match Period to make such adjustments or revisions to the terms of this Agreement as would permit the Company Board not to effect a Company Change of Recommendation in response thereto; and

-79-

(5) at the end of the Intervening Event Match Period, prior to taking action to effect a Company Change of Recommendation, the Company Board takes into account any adjustments or revisions to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Contributor in writing in a binding proposal and any other information offered by Contributor in response to the notice, and determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to effect a Company Change of Recommendation in response to such Company Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, that in the event of any material changes regarding any Company Intervening Event, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Contributor and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.9(e)(iv) with respect to such new written notice, except that the Intervening Event Match Period shall be reduced to three (3) Business Days; provided, further, that any such new written notice shall in no event shorten the original Intervening Event Match Period.

(f) During the Interim Period, the Company shall not (and it shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to) terminate, amend, modify, or waive any provision of any confidentiality, “standstill,” or similar agreement to which it or any Company Subsidiary is a party.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.9, any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.9 by any of the Directors and Officers, whether or not such Person is purporting to act on behalf of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 5.9 by the Company.

(h) During the Interim Period, Contributor will, and will cause the Contributor Subsidiaries to and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Representatives of Contributor and the Contributor Subsidiaries to, immediately cease, and cause to be terminated, any discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore by Contributor, the Contributor Subsidiaries, or its or their respective Representatives with respect to any inquiry, proposal, or offer that constitutes a Contributor Competing Proposal. Promptly after the Execution Date, Contributor shall notify each officer and director of Contributor and the Contributor Subsidiaries of the terms of this Section 5.9(h). Contributor will immediately terminate any physical and electronic data access related to any such potential Contributor Competing Proposal previously granted to such Persons by Contributor, the Contributor Subsidiaries, or its or their respective Representatives. During the Interim Period, Contributor will not, and will cause the Contributor Subsidiaries not to and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Representatives of Contributor and the Contributor Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit, propose, knowingly encourage, or knowingly facilitate any inquiry or the making of any proposal

-80-

or offer that constitutes a Contributor Competing Proposal (it being understood that a ministerial act that is not otherwise prohibited by this Section 5.9(h)(i) (such as answering an unsolicited phone call) shall not, in and of itself, be deemed to constitute a violation of this Section 5.9(h)(i)), (ii) engage in, continue, or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person relating to, or in furtherance of a Contributor Competing Proposal, (iii) furnish any non-public information regarding Contributor or the Contributor Subsidiaries, or access to the properties, assets, or employees of any of Contributor or the Contributor Subsidiaries, to any Person in connection with or in response to any Contributor Competing Proposal, (iv) enter into any letter of intent or agreement in principle relating to, or other agreement providing for, a Contributor Competing Proposal, or (v) submit any Contributor Competing Proposal to the approval of the holders of Interests, directly or indirectly, of Contributor.

(b) subject to applicable Law and as otherwise required by any Governmental Entity, each of Contributor and the Company will give prompt written notice to the other (and will subsequently keep the other informed on a reasonably current basis of any material developments related to such notice) upon becoming aware of (i) the occurrence or existence of any fact, event, or circumstance that, (A) with respect to Contributor, had or would have a Contributor Material Adverse Effect, and (B) with respect to the Company, had or would have a Company Material Adverse Effect or would reasonably be expected to result in a Company Intervening Event, (ii) the occurrence or existence of any fact, event, or circumstance that is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VI or Article VII, as applicable, not being able to be satisfied prior to the Outside Date, (iii) any notice or other communication that has been received by the Company, Contributor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions, (iv) any notice or other communication that has been received by the Company, Contributor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions, or (v) any Proceeding commenced or, to the Knowledge of Contributor or the Company, as applicable, threatened that (A) if pending on the Execution Date, would have been required to have been disclosed by Contributor or the Company, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement or (B) otherwise relates to this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions. No notification given by any Party pursuant to this Section 5.10(b), shall limit or otherwise affect any of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, or conditions contained in this Agreement.

-81-

5.11 Transaction Litigation. Except for any Proceeding taken by any Antitrust Authority which shall be subject to Sections 5.1(b) and 5.1(c), each of the Company and Contributor shall cooperate with the other in the defense or settlement of any Proceeding relating to the Transactions which is brought or threatened in writing against (a) the Company, any of its Affiliates, and/or any of its or their respective directors or officers, or (b) Contributor, any of its Affiliates, and/or any of its or their respective directors or officers. Such cooperation between the Company and Contributor shall include (i) keeping each other reasonably and promptly informed of any developments in connection with any such Proceeding, (ii) utilizing counsel reasonably agreeable to both the Company and Contributor (such agreement to counsel not to be unreasonably withheld, condition or delayed) and (iii) refraining from compromising, settling, or consenting to any Order or entering into any agreement in respect of, any such Proceeding without the written consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

5.12 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, including Section 8.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the Party incurring such fee or expense, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred (it being understood that expenses incurred by Raptor and its Subsidiaries will not be borne by Contributor or any of its equity owners).

5.13 Employee Matters.

(a) Beginning on the date of the execution of this Agreement, Artemis Corporation shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, make available to Contributor or its Affiliate each of the employees of Artemis Corporation or its Affiliate who is set forth on Schedule 5.13(a)(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter (such employees, the “Executive Employees”) to discuss potential employment with the Company or its post-Closing Affiliate following the Closing. No later than fourteen (14) days prior to the Closing, Contributor shall inform Artemis Corporation which of the Executive Employees have received and accepted offers of employment with the Company or its post-Closing Affiliate (such Executive Employees are referred to herein as the “Identified Executive Employees”). Immediately prior to the Closing, Artemis Corporation shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, transfer and the Company shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, accept transfer of the employment of each Identified Executive Employee and each employee of Artemis Corporation or its Affiliates who is set forth on Schedule 5.13(a)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter (such employees, the “Company-Related Employees”). Each Company-Related Employee and Identified Executive Employee whose employment is transferred to the Company or its applicable Affiliate pursuant to this Section 5.13 shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Employee”. No Company Support Employee shall transfer employment to the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) For a period of at least one year immediately following the Closing Date, or until employment termination of the relevant Transferred Employee if sooner, the Company shall or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to provide each Transferred Employee with (i) an annual base salary or hourly wage rate, as applicable, and target bonus opportunity substantially similar to the annual base salary or hourly wage rate, as applicable, and target bonus opportunity provided to similarly situated employees of Contributor and (ii) employee benefits that are no less valuable, in the aggregate, than the employee benefits provided by Contributor to similarly situated employees of Contributor.

-82-

(c) The Company shall cause each Transferred Employee to be immediately eligible to participate in each Contributor Plan after Closing, subject to applicable third-party insurer and administrator consent, which consent Contributor shall take reasonable best efforts to secure. From and after the Closing Date, the Company or its applicable Subsidiaries shall credit each Transferred Employee’s service with Artemis Corporation and its Affiliates for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, and benefit accrual (but not for purposes of defined benefit pension accrual or post-employment retiree welfare benefits) with respect to the Contributor Plans in which any Transferred Employee is eligible to participate after the Closing; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

(d) For purposes of each Contributor Plan in which any Transferred Employee is eligible to participate after the Closing, the Company shall (i) cause all pre-existing condition exclusions, waiting periods, evidence of insurability, and actively-at-work requirements to be waived for each Transferred Employee and their covered dependents, to the extent such conditions were inapplicable or waived under the comparable Company Plan or Artemis Sponsor Plan in which such Transferred Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing Date and (ii) give full credit for all co-payments, coinsurance, maximum out-of-pocket requirements, and deductibles under applicable Company Plans and Artemis Sponsor Plans to the extent incurred or satisfied, as applicable, in the plan year in which the Closing occurs as if there had been a single continuous employer, subject, in each case, to applicable third-party insurer and administrator consent, which consent Contributor shall take reasonable best efforts to secure.

(e) As soon as practicable after the Closing, the Company shall take all action necessary to provide that each Transferred Employee may elect to rollover his or her full account balance (including participant loans) in the Artemis Corporation 401(k) Savings Plan to the EagleClaw Midstream 401(k) Plan, which shall be amended as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing to the extent such plan does not otherwise permit all of the foregoing.

(f) In the event the Company or an applicable Company Subsidiary terminates the employment of a Transferred Employee for reasons other than cause, death, or disability prior to the end of the one year period immediately following the Closing Date, the Company shall, or shall cause its applicable Subsidiary to, provide such terminated Transferred Employee with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the greater of (i) those that would have been provided to such Transferred Employee under the severance plan or program applicable to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, as set forth on Schedule 5.13(f) of the Company Disclosure Letter, or (ii) those that may be provided to such Transferred Employee under the terms of a Company Plan or Contributor Plan applicable to similarly situated employees, whichever is more favorable to such Transferred Employee; provided, that, in no event shall the Company be required to provide severance payments and benefits to a terminated Transferred Employee

-83-

who was a Company-Related Employee in excess of one hundred percent (100%) of such Transferred Employee’s annual base salary. Such severance benefits may be contingent upon the employee’s execution, and non-revocation of, a standard general release and waiver agreement in favor of the Contributor, the Company, and the Company Subsidiaries, and compliance with confidentiality and other restrictive covenants agreed to prior to the Transferred Employee’s termination from employment.

(g) The Company shall promptly reimburse Artemis Corporation for all out-of-pocket costs Artemis Corporation or its Affiliates incur with respect to the termination of employment of any Company-Related Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company-Related Employees do not include any Executive Employees.

(h) With respect to each Artemis Sponsor Plan equity, equity-based, or incentive award held immediately prior to the Closing Date by a Transferred Employee that will be forfeited pursuant to the terms of such Artemis Sponsor Plan or award thereunder as a result of the transfer of employment of such Transferred Employee to the Company (each, a “Forfeited Award”), as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, the Company shall grant such Transferred Employee an equity, equity-based or incentive award that has an equivalent monetary value and substantially similar terms (including the same vesting dates and triggers and settlement terms) to that of the Forfeited Award, as set forth on Schedule 5.13(h) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(i) Effective as of the Closing Date, each Transferred Employee shall cease active participation in each Artemis Sponsor Plan, except as otherwise required by Law.

(j) The Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, at any time within ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing Date, (i) effectuate a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (in each case, as defined in the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988 or similar applicable Law governing employment losses (the “WARN Act”)) affecting any of the Transferred Employees, or (ii) terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee, in either case if such employment terminations cause Losses to Artemis Corporation under the WARN Act. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be responsible for notices or payments due to any Transferred Employees, and all applications, notices, payments, fines, or assessments due to any Governmental Entity, pursuant to any applicable Law, with respect to the employment, discharge, or layoff of any Transferred Employees on or after the Closing. The Company will indemnify Artemis Corporation from and against any Losses that may be incurred by it as a result of any obligation owed by it to any Transferred Employees under the WARN Act arising on or after the Closing as a result of any action or omission of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Transferred Employees occurring on or after the Closing.

(k) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Artemis Sponsor, its Affiliates, and its and their respective Representatives for any and all Losses incurred by Artemis Sponsor, its Affiliates, or its or their respective Representatives arising as a result of any breach of this Section 5.13 by the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Representatives, including any Proceedings resulting from or in connection with any breach of this Section 5.13 by the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, the Company Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Representatives.

(l) This Section 5.13 shall be binding upon and shall inure solely to the benefit of each of the Parties and their intended third party beneficiaries, as provided in Section 10.12, and nothing in this Section 5.13, express or implied, (i) is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever, (ii) is intended to be, shall constitute, or be construed as an amendment to or modification of any Artemis Sponsor Plan or any Company Plan, or (iii) obligates the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to retain the employment of any Transferred Employee or a service relationship with any other service provider of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries following the Closing.

5.14 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

In the event that the Company or any Company Subsidiary, or any of its or their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall succeed to and be bound by the obligations set forth in this Section 5.14. The obligations of the Company under this Section 5.14 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to materially and adversely affect any D&O Indemnitee to whom this Section 5.14 applies without the written consent of such affected D&O Indemnitee.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Contributed Entities shall obtain and fully pay the premium for “tail” insurance policies for the extension of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage of the Contributed Entities’ existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies, in each case, with a claims period of six (6) years from the Closing Date and with at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to such directors and officers, in each case with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Closing (including in connection with the Transactions).

(i) Obtain and fully pay the premium for “tail” insurance policies for the extension of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage of the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies, in each case, with a claims period of six (6) years from the Closing Date and with at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to such directors and officers, in each case with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Closing (including in connection with the Transactions); provided, however, that in no event will the Company be required to expend an annual premium for such coverage in excess of 300% percent of the last annual premium paid by the Company or the Contributed Entities, as applicable, for such insurance prior to the Execution Date. If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at an annual premium equal to or less than such maximum annual premium amount, the Company shall obtain the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding an annual premium equal to such maximum annual premium amount.

For the avoidance of doubt, any indemnification agreements with the pre-Closing directors and officers of the Company or the Contributed Entities in effect as of the date hereof shall continue to be effective following the Closing, and the Company shall honor and fully perform such indemnification agreements.

5.15 Transition Services(a) .

10.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (in each case, together with the exhibits and schedules of each of the foregoing), and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties, covenants, or undertakings between the Parties, other than those expressly set forth or referred to herein or therein.

-98-

10.3 Waiver. Any Party may (a) waive any inaccuracies in the warranties of the other contained herein or in any document, certificate, or writing delivered pursuant hereto or (b) waive compliance by the other Parties with any of the other Parties’ agreements or fulfillment of any conditions to its own obligations contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of such Parties. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, no failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power, or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege.

10.4 Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective executors, administrators, successors, and legal representatives.

10.5 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Severability; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the principles of conflicts of Law; provided, however, that no Law, theory, or public policy shall be given effect which would undermine, diminish, or reduce the effectiveness of the waiver of damages provided in Article IX, it being the express intent, understanding, and agreement of the Parties that such waiver is to be given the fullest effect, notwithstanding the negligence (whether sole, joint, or concurrent), gross negligence, willful misconduct, strict liability, or other legal fault of any Party.

(b) The Parties hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and the federal courts of the United States of America located in Delaware over any dispute between or among the Parties arising out of this Agreement, and the Parties irrevocably agree that all such claims in respect of such dispute shall be heard and determined in such courts. The Parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such dispute arising out of this Agreement brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. The Parties agree that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

(c) Should any term or provision of this Agreement for any reason be declared invalid or unenforceable, such decision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the other terms or provisions of this Agreement, which other terms and provisions shall remain in full force and effect and the application of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by Law. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and that this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified.

-99-

(d) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS.

10.6 Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of all Parties. If a provision or a defined term incorporated by reference into this Agreement is amended, supplemented, or modified in the agreement from which such provision or defined term is incorporated, such amendment, supplement, or modification shall have no effect on such provision or defined term as used in this Agreement unless such amendment, supplement, or modification is approved as provided in this Section 10.6.

10.7 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by the Parties. Prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, it is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, in each case in accordance with this Section 10.7, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under the terms of this Agreement at Law or in equity. Each Party accordingly agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement all in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.7. Each Party further agrees that no other Party or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 10.7, and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. If prior to the Outside Date, any Party hereto brings an action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other Party, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by such other time period established by the court presiding over such action.

10.8 Further Assurances. From time to time following the Closing, at the reasonable request of any Party and without further consideration, the other Parties shall execute and deliver to such requesting Party such instruments and documents and take such other action (but without incurring any material financial obligation) as may reasonably be required to consummate more fully and effectively the Transactions.

-100-

10.9 Disclosure Letters. Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Letters is included solely for informational purposes, is not an admission of liability with respect to the matters covered by the information, and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement, and such disclosures shall not be deemed to enlarge or enhance any of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or otherwise alter the terms of this Agreement. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, or the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Letters, is not intended to imply that such amounts (or higher or lower amounts) are or are not material, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any such item in the Disclosure Letters in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item, or matter not described herein or included in the Disclosure Letters is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. The headings, if any, of the individual sections of the Disclosure Letters are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part thereof or a part of this Agreement. The Disclosure Letters are arranged in sections corresponding to the Sections of this Agreement merely for convenience, and the disclosure of an item in one section of the Disclosure Letters as an exception to a particular representation or warranty shall be deemed adequately disclosed as an exception with respect to all other representations or warranties only to the extent that the relevance of such item to such representations or warranties is reasonably apparent on its face, notwithstanding the presence or absence of an appropriate section of the Disclosure Letters with respect to such other representations or warranties or as an appropriate cross-reference thereto.

10.10 Assignment and Successors and Assigns.

(a) The rights and obligations contained in this Agreement shall not be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties to this Agreement, and any such action without the required consent shall be void ab initio.

(b) This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and any permitted successors or assigns to the original Parties to this Agreement, but such assignment shall not relieve any Party of any obligations incurred prior to such assignment.

10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute an agreement binding on the Parties, notwithstanding that all Parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. Facsimile copies of signatures shall constitute original signatures for all purposes of this Agreement and any enforcement hereof.

10.12 No Third Party Beneficiary. Except for the provisions of Section 5.14 (which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons identified therein), Section 5.7 (in respect of which (i) Blackstone, ISQ and their respective relevant Affiliates and (ii) Artemis Sponsor and its Affiliates are intended third party beneficiaries), Section 5.13 (in respect of which Artemis Sponsor and its Affiliates are intended third party beneficiaries), and Section 9.3 (which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons identified therein), the terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors or permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the Parties to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other Person.

VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT

This VOTING AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT, dated as of October 21, 2021 (this “Agreement”), is entered into by and among BCP Raptor Holdco, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Raptor”), New BCP Raptor Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“New Raptor” and, together with Raptor, the “Raptor Parties”), Apache Midstream LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holder”), and solely for purposes of Section 6.1, APA Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Altus Sponsor”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Raptor, New Raptor, Altus Midstream LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and Altus Midstream Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), are entering into a Contribution Agreement dated as of the date of this Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) pursuant to which Raptor and its Subsidiaries and BCP Raptor Holdco GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, will become wholly owned Subsidiaries of the Partnership in exchange for newly issued Partnership limited partner units (“Altus LP Units”) and a corresponding number of newly issued shares of Class C common stock of the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Contribution Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction”);

WHEREAS, Holder is the Beneficial Owner (as defined below) of such number of securities set forth under its name on Schedule I hereto (the “Covered Securities”), which Covered Securities include shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Altus Parent Class A Shares”), shares of Class C common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Altus Parent Class C Shares”, and, together with the Altus Parent Class A Shares, collectively, the “Altus Parent Common Stock”), Altus LP Units, and warrants to purchase Altus Parent Class A Shares;

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Contribution Agreement, and as a condition and an inducement to the Raptor Parties entering into the Contribution Agreement, Holder is entering into this Agreement with respect to the Covered Securities; and

WHEREAS, Holder is willing, subject to the limitations herein, (i) not to Transfer (as defined below) any of its Covered Securities and (ii) to vote its shares of Altus Parent Common Stock in a manner so as to facilitate consummation of the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

GENERAL

1.1 Definitions. This Agreement is the “Support Agreement” as defined in the Contribution Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Company shall not be deemed an Affiliate of the Holder, and the Company and its Representatives are not Representatives of Holder. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Contribution Agreement.

(a) “Beneficially Own” or “Beneficial Ownership” has the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, and a Person’s beneficial ownership of securities shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of such Rule (in each case, irrespective of whether or not such Rule is actually applicable in such circumstance). For the avoidance of doubt, Beneficially Own and Beneficial Ownership shall also include record ownership of securities.

(b) “Beneficial Owners” shall mean Persons who Beneficially Own the referenced securities.

(c) “Transfer” means (i) any offer, pledge, sale, contract to sell, grant of any option, right or warrant to purchase, gift, assignment, distribution, hypothecation, pledge, encumbrance, grant of a security interest in, sale of any option or contract to purchase, purchase of any option or contract to sell, grant of any option, right, or warrant to purchase, loan or other transfer or disposition of (including through any hedging or other similar transaction) any economic, voting, or other rights in or to Covered Securities, or other transfer or disposition of, directly or indirectly, Covered Securities, (ii) entrance into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of Beneficial Ownership of Covered Securities or that results in an amount of Covered Securities subject to Article III to be less than the amount of Covered Securities subject to Article III as of the date of this Agreement or (iii) any exchange or redemption of Altus LP Units and Altus Parent Class C Shares that constitute Covered Securities for Altus Parent Class A Shares pursuant to the Partnership Organizational Documents; provided, however, that no transaction permitted under Section 2.1(b) shall be deemed a “Transfer” for purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE II

AGREEMENT TO RETAIN COVERED SECURITIES

2.1 Transfer and Encumbrance of Covered Securities.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the Closing Date or (ii) the termination of the Contribution Agreement pursuant to and in compliance with the terms thereof (such earlier date, the “Termination Date”), Holder shall not, with respect to any Covered Securities Beneficially Owned by Holder, (x) Transfer any such Covered Securities or (y) deposit any such Covered Securities into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Covered Securities or grant any proxy (except as provided herein) or power of attorney with respect thereto.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 2.1(a), (i) Holder shall be free to sell in one or more registered offerings up to four (4) million shares of Company Class A Common Stock in the aggregate (and exchange Altus LP Units and Altus Parent Class C Shares for Altus Parent Class A Shares that will be sold in any such offering), provided that (A) Holder agrees to use at least $75 million of the first proceeds from such offerings for well drilling and completion activity at the Alpine High resource play within eighteen (18) months of the closing of the earliest of any such offerings; provided, that Holder shall be credited for any reasonably documented investment by

Altus Sponsor or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) in well drilling and completion activity at the Alpine High resource play incurred after the date hereof, which credit shall reduce the foregoing $75 million obligation dollar-for-dollar and (B) with respect to each such offering that is not an underwritten offering, Holder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell such shares of Class A Common Stock to no fewer than eight (8) unaffiliated Persons and (ii) Holder shall be free to exchange or redeem Altus LP Units and Altus Parent Class C Shares for Altus Parent Class A Shares pursuant to the Partnership’s Organizational Documents; provided, that any such exchange or redemption prior to Closing shall be subject to the Share Settlement (as defined in the Partnership’s Organizational Documents) and not the Cash Settlement (as defined in the Partnership’s Organizational Documents).

(c) Any Covered Securities that are Transferred in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(i) shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement following such Transfer and shall cease to be Covered Securities, and upon such Transfer the proxy granted by Holder in Article III with respect to such Covered Securities so Transferred in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(i) shall be automatically revoked. For the avoidance of doubt, any Altus Parent Class A Shares that are issued pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii) shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement following such Transfer and shall continue to be Covered Securities.

2.2 Additional Purchases; Adjustments. Holder agrees that any shares of Altus Parent Common Stock of the Company that Holder purchases or otherwise acquires (including as a result of the exercise of the warrants exercisable for Altus Parent Class A Shares set forth under Holder’s name on Schedule I hereto) or with respect to which Holder otherwise acquires voting power after the execution of this Agreement and prior to the Termination Date shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted Covered Securities as of the date of this Agreement, and Holder shall promptly notify the Company of the existence of any such after acquired Covered Securities. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Company affecting the Covered Securities, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities and they shall be deemed to be Covered Securities.

2.3 Unpermitted Transfers; Involuntary Transfers. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Covered Securities in violation of this Article II shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be null and void ab initio. In furtherance of the foregoing, Holder hereby authorizes and instructs the Company to instruct its transfer agent to enter a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Covered Securities; provided that such stop transfer order shall be removed with respect to any Transfer permitted under this Agreement. If any involuntary Transfer of any of Holder’s Covered Securities shall occur, the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Covered Securities subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date.

ARTICLE III

AGREEMENT TO VOTE

3.1 Agreement to Vote. Prior to the Termination Date, but subject to Section 3.2, Holder irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it shall, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting), however called, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause all of the shares of Altus Parent Common Stock that constitute Covered Securities to be counted as present at such meeting for purpose of establishing a quorum and vote, or cause to be voted at such meeting, all of the shares of Altus Parent Common Stock that constitute Covered Securities:

(a) in favor of approving any matters necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement (the “Transaction Matters”); and

(b) against (i) any agreement, transaction or proposal that relates to a Company Competing Proposal, without regard to the terms of such Company Competing Proposal, or any other transaction, proposal, agreement or action made in opposition to adoption of the Contribution Agreement or in competition or inconsistent with the Transaction or matters contemplated by the Contribution Agreement; (ii) any action, agreement or transaction that would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries contained in the Contribution Agreement or of Holder contained in this Agreement; (iii) any action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to result in (x) any condition to the consummation of the Transaction set forth in Article VI or Article VII of the Contribution Agreement not being fulfilled or (y) any change to the voting rights of any class of shares of capital stock of the Company (including by any amendments to the Company’s Organizational Documents other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any amendments contemplated by the Contribution Agreement); and (iv) any other action, agreement or transaction that would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, postpone or adversely affect any of the Transaction Matters.

(c) Any attempt by Holder to vote, consent or express dissent with respect to (or otherwise to utilize the voting power of) the Covered Securities in contravention of this Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 shall be null and void ab initio. If Holder is the Beneficial Owner, but not the holder of record, of any shares of Altus Parent Common Stock, Holder agrees to take all actions necessary to cause the holder of record and any nominees to vote (or exercise a consent with respect to) all of such shares of Altus Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Section 3.1 and Section 3.2.

3.2 Change in Company Recommendation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that the Company Board makes a Company Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 5.9(e) of the Contribution Agreement (the “Trigger Event”), the obligations of Holder under Section 3.1 above shall be modified such that the number of shares of Altus Parent Common Stock voted by Holder in accordance with Section 3.1 above that Holder must vote as set forth in Section 3.1(a) shall be equal to the sum of (rounded up to the nearest whole share):

(a) The number of shares of Altus Parent Common Stock that constitute Covered Securities that would represent as of the time of the Trigger Event thirty-five percent (35%) of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding shares of Altus Parent Common Stock entitled to vote thereon; plus

(b) The number of shares of Altus Parent Common Stock that constitute Covered Securities the aggregate voting power of which, as a percentage of the aggregate voting power of all shares of Altus Parent Common Stock that constitute Covered Securities not covered by subsection (a) of this Section 3.2, is equal to the Proportionate Percentage. The term “Proportionate Percentage,” for purposes of this Agreement, means the percentage of aggregate voting power with respect to all shares of Altus Parent Common Stock voted by stockholders of the Company (excluding Holder) either in favor of or against approving the Transaction Matters, voting in favor of approving the Transaction Matters. For example, if fifty percent of the total aggregate voting power with respect to all shares of Altus Parent Common Stock voted by stockholders of the Company (excluding Holder) either to approve or reject the Transaction Matters votes to approve the Transaction Matters, Holder must vote fifty percent of the aggregate voting power represented by all shares of Altus Parent Common Stock that constitute Covered Securities not covered by subsection (a) of this Section 3.2 to approve the Transaction Matters and the remaining fifty percent shall be subject to Section 3.2(c).

(c) Following a Trigger Event, Holder shall be entitled to vote any shares of Altus Parent Common Stock that constitute Covered Securities that are not covered in Section 3.2(a) or Section 3.2(b) (i.e., such shares that are not subject to the voting obligations of Holder under Section 3.1) in its sole discretion with respect to the Transaction Matters, including to abstain from voting on any such matter. All other Parties to this Agreement hereby waive any claims, demands or other causes of action it may have against Holder with respect to the voting (or abstention of voting) on Transactional Matters by the Holder in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 3.2(c).

3.3 Proxy. Holder hereby irrevocably appoints as its proxy and attorney-in-fact, Raptor and any person designated in writing by Raptor, each of them individually, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to consent to or vote the Covered Securities as required by Sections 3.1 and 3.2 above; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this proxy shall be limited to the matters described in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 above and shall not apply to any other matter for which Holder is entitled to vote any shares of Altus Parent Common Stock. Holder intends this proxy to be irrevocable and unconditional during the term of this Agreement and coupled with an interest and will take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effect the intent of this proxy, and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by Holder with respect to the Covered Securities (and Holder hereby represents that any such proxy is revocable). The proxy granted by Holder shall be automatically revoked immediately following the conclusion of any meeting of the stockholders of the Company (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting) concerning the Transaction Matters at which the Covered Securities have been voted as required by Sections 3.1 and 3.2 above and Raptor may further terminate this proxy at any time at its sole election by written notice provided to Holder.

ARTICLE IV

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

4.1 Waiver of Litigation. Holder agrees not to commence, join in, and agrees to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against any Raptor Party or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates and each of their successors or directors relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this

Agreement or the Contribution Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any claim (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or the Contribution Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the Closing) or (b) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of the Company Board in connection with the negotiation and entry into the Contribution Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives any claim or rights whatsoever with respect to any of the foregoing.

4.2 Further Assurances. Holder agrees that from and after the date of this Agreement and until the Termination Date, Holder shall take no action that would or would reasonably be likely to materially adversely affect or delay the ability to perform its respective covenants and agreements under this Agreement. In connection with the Closing, Holder agrees to execute and deliver to the Company counterparts of all agreements reasonably necessary to consummate the Transaction (other than the Reorganization) in the manner specified in the Contribution Agreement or that are expressly contemplated to be executed by Holder in the Contribution Agreement, including the Second A&R Registration Rights Agreement and the Third A&R LP Agreement, in each case upon delivery of executed counterparts of the other parties thereto, as applicable.

4.3 Fiduciary Duties. Holder is entering into this Agreement solely in its capacity as the record or Beneficial Owner of the Covered Securities and nothing herein is intended to or shall limit or affect any actions taken by any of Holder’s designees serving in his or her capacity as a director of the Company (or a Subsidiary of the Company). The taking of any actions (or failures to act) by Holder’s designees serving as a director of the Company (in such capacity as a director) shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Agreement.

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF HOLDER

5.1 Representations and Warranties. Holder hereby represents and warrants as follows:

(a) Ownership. Subject to Section 2.1(b)(i), Holder has, with respect to the Covered Securities, and at all times during the term of this Agreement will continue to have, Beneficial Ownership of, good and valid title to and full and exclusive power to vote, issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth in Article III, and agree to all of the matters set forth in this Agreement. The Covered Securities set forth under its name on Schedule I hereto constitute all of the shares of Altus Parent Common Stock owned of record or beneficially by Holder as of the date of this Agreement. Other than this Agreement and the Partnership Organizational Documents, (i) there are no agreements or arrangements of any kind, contingent or otherwise, to which Holder is a party obligating Holder to Transfer or cause to be Transferred to any person any of the Covered Securities and (ii) no Person has any contractual or other right or obligation to purchase or otherwise acquire any of the Covered Securities.

(b) Organization; Authority. Holder is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of formation and has full power and authority and is duly authorized to make, enter into and carry out the terms of this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Holder and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Raptor Parties) constitutes

a valid and binding agreement of Holder, enforceable against Holder in accordance with its terms (except in all cases as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles), and no other action is necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by Holder or the performance of Holder’s obligations hereunder.

(c) No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance by Holder of this Agreement will not (i) violate any provision of any Law applicable to Holder; (ii) violate any order, judgment or decree applicable to Holder or any of its Affiliates; or (iii) conflict with, or result in a breach or default under, any agreement or instrument to which Holder or any of its Affiliates is a party or any term or condition of its certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement, or certificate of incorporation or corporate bylaws, as applicable, except where such conflict, breach or default would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have an adverse effect on Holder’s ability to satisfy its obligations hereunder.

(d) Consents and Approvals. The execution and delivery by Holder of this Agreement does not, and the performance of Holder’s obligations hereunder will not, require Holder or any of its Affiliates to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or to make any filing with or notification to, any person or Governmental Entity, except such filings and authorizations as may be required under the Exchange Act.

(e) Absence of Litigation. To the knowledge of Holder, as of the date of this Agreement, there is no Proceeding pending against, or threatened in writing against Holder that would prevent the performance by Holder of its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Contribution Agreement, including the Transaction, on a timely basis.

(f) Absence of Other Voting Agreements. Other than pursuant to Permitted Encumbrances, none of the Covered Securities is subject to any voting trust, proxy or other agreement, arrangement or restriction with respect to voting, in each case, that is inconsistent with this Agreement, except as disclosed in the Company SEC Documents and as contemplated by this Agreement. None of the Covered Securities is subject to any pledge agreement pursuant to which Holder does not retain sole and exclusive voting rights with respect to the Covered Securities subject to such pledge agreement at least until the occurrence of an event of default under the related debt instrument.

In addition, each of Holder and Altus Sponsor agrees to be subject to Section 5.9(c) of the Contribution Agreement (giving effect to any amendment or modification of such section after the date of this Agreement approved in accordance with the Contribution Agreement) as if Holder or Altus Sponsor, as applicable, were “the Company” thereunder.

6.4 Amendment; Waiver.

(a) This Agreement shall not be amended or modified except by written instrument duly executed by each of the parties.

(b) No waiver of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of the same is sought. The grant of a waiver in one instance does not constitute a continuing waiver in any other instances. No failure by any party to exercise, and no delay by any party in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof

6.5 Counterparts; Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties. Each party acknowledges that it and the other parties may execute this Agreement by facsimile or pdf signature. Each party expressly adopts and confirms each such facsimile or pdf signature made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature, agrees that it will not assert that any such signature is not adequate to bind such party to the same extent as if it were signed manually, and agrees that at the reasonable request of the other parties at any time it will as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this Agreement to be manually executed (any such execution to be as of the date of the initial date thereof).

6.6 Assignment and Binding Effect. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any such attempted assignment, delegation or transfer shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors, permitted transferees and permitted assigns. Except as expressly set forth in the prior sentence, (a) none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any third party, including any creditor of any party hereto or any of their Affiliates and (b) no such third party shall obtain any right under any provision of this Agreement or shall by reasons of any such provision make any claim in respect of any liability (or otherwise) against any other party hereto.

6.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the schedule hereto) and the provisions incorporated by reference herein from the Contribution Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous agreements, negotiations, discussions, understandings, writings, commitments and conversations between the parties with respect to such subject matter. No agreements or understandings exist among the parties other than those set forth or referred to herein.

6.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, as the case may be, is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination, such provision shall be construed by limiting and reducing it so that such provision is valid, legal, and fully enforceable while preserving to the greatest extent permissible the original intent of the parties; the remaining terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be affected by such alteration.

6.9 No Partnership, Agency or Joint Venture. This Agreement is intended to create, and creates, a contractual relationship and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership, joint venture, any like relationship between the parties hereto or a presumption that the parties are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.10 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT) THAT MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT OF RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THEREOF.

(b) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR RESULTING FROM THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.10.

(c) THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDING SEEKING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF, OR BASED ON ANY MATTER RELATING TO, ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR IF SUCH COURT DOES NOT HAVE JURISDICTION, IN ANY FEDERAL COURT WITHIN THE STATE OF DELAWARE ONLY, AND THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION RELATING TO, ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE ARISEN FROM A TRANSACTION OF BUSINESS IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS (AND OF THE APPROPRIATE APPELLATE COURTS THEREFROM) IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING THAT IS BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to process being served by any party to this Agreement in any Proceeding by the delivery of a copy thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.3 or in such other manner as may be permitted by law.

6.11 Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Transaction Matters are consummated.

6.12 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or cause of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto and no past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or representative of any party hereto shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.13 Injunctive Relief. The parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by the parties. Prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.2, it is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this

Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, in each case in accordance with this Section 6.13, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under the terms of this Agreement at Applicable Law or in equity. Each party accordingly agrees (a) the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief, without proof of actual damages; and (b) the alleged breaching party will not raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such party under this Agreement and will not plead in defense thereto that there are adequate remedies under Applicable Law, all in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.13. Each party further agrees that no other party or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 6.13, and each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. If prior to the Outside Date, any party hereto brings a Proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by such other time period established by the court presiding over such Proceeding.

6.14 No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in either Raptor Party any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to the Covered Securities. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Covered Securities shall remain vested in and belong to Holder, and the Raptor Parties shall not have any authority to manage, direct, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any of the policies or operations of the Company or exercise any power or authority to direct Holder in the voting or disposition of any Covered Securities, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

6.15 Disclosure. Holder consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure by the Company and the Raptor Parties of Holder’s identity and holding of Covered Securities, and the terms of this Agreement (including, for avoidance of doubt, the disclosure of this Agreement), in any press release, the Proxy Statement, any filings on Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act and any other disclosure document required in connection with the Contribution Agreement and the Transaction Matters.

6.16 Interpretation. The parties have participated jointly in negotiating and drafting this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Articles or Sections, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” As used in this Agreement, the “knowledge” of Holder means the actual knowledge of any officer of Holder after due inquiry.

6.17 Waiver of Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY UNRECOVERABLE DAMAGES (WHICH, FOR CLARITY, SHALL HAVE THE MEANING ASCRIBED TO SUCH TERM IN THE CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT).

WHEREAS, the Corporation, Apache Midstream and Kayne Anderson Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Kayne Anderson”), previously entered into that certain Stockholders Agreement dated as of November 9, 2018 (the “Existing Stockholders Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Apache Midstream and its Affiliates have certain Board designation rights;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms thereof, the Existing Stockholders Agreement has terminated with respect to Kayne Anderson;

WHEREAS, the current parties to the Existing Stockholders Agreement desire to amend and restate the Existing Stockholders Agreement in its entirety as provided herein; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions (the “Business Combination”) contemplated by that certain Contribution Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Corporation, Altus Midstream LP, a Delaware limited partnership, BCP Raptor Holdco, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and New Raptor (the “Contribution Agreement”), the Corporation, APA Corporation, Apache Midstream, BX Aggregator, BX Permian, ISQ and New Raptor are entering into this Agreement, effective concurrently with the Closing (as defined below), to set forth certain understandings among themselves following the Closing.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and of the mutual consents and obligations hereinafter set forth, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Definitions; Interpretation.

(a) Definitions. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

“Affiliate” means (a) with respect to any Person, other than an individual, any other Person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person (solely for purposes of Section 20, including any principal, member, director, partner, stockholder, officer, employee or other representative of any of the foregoing) and (b) as to any individual, (i) any member of the immediate family of an individual Stockholder, including parents, siblings, spouse, and children (including those by adoption) of such individual Stockholder, and, in any such case, any trust whose primary beneficiary is such individual Stockholder or one or more members of such individual Stockholder’s immediate family or such individual Stockholder’s lineal descendants, (ii) the legal representative or guardian of such individual Stockholder or of any such immediate family member in the event such individual Stockholder or any such immediate family member becomes mentally incompetent, and (iii) any Person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, such individual Stockholder. As used in this definition, the term “control,” (and its correlative terms) means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. For purposes of this Agreement other than Section 20, (i) the Corporation shall not constitute an Affiliate of any other Party and (ii) no Party shall be deemed to be an Affiliate of another Party solely by reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement.

“Agreement” has the meaning set forth in the Preamble.

“Altus Dividend” means the dividend as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto.

“APA Corporation” has the meaning set forth in the Preamble.

“Beneficial Owner” means, with respect to any security, any Person who directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, has or shares (a) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security or (b) investment power, which includes the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition of, such security; provided, however, that (i) the Shares underlying the Warrants shall be deemed to not be Beneficially Owned by any Person for purposes of calculating Beneficial Ownership pursuant to Section 2 and Section 6 until such time as such Warrants are exercised in accordance with their terms and (ii) for purposes of Section 2 only, any shares issued by the Corporation in any primary issuance that occurs on a date between the date of this Agreement and December 31, 2022 shall not be considered outstanding until the day following the Corporation’s annual meeting that occurs in the 2023 calendar year. The terms “Beneficially Own” and “Beneficial Ownership” will have correlative meanings. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Agreement, no Stockholder shall be deemed to Beneficially Own the Shares of another Stockholder, solely due to the fact that such Shares are subject to this Agreement.

Whenever any notice is required to be given by law or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

Section 13. Waiver.

(a) No waiver by any Party hereto of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. No waiver by any Party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach, or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, no failure by a Party hereto to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Corporation shall not waive the Transfer restrictions set forth in Section 3(a) unless such waiver has been approved by a majority of the disinterested directors on the Board, as determined by the Board.

Unless otherwise provided herein, any consent required by the Corporation may be withheld by the Corporation in its sole discretion.

Section 15. Inconsistent Arrangements; Specific Performance.

(a) No Party shall enter into any agreements or arrangements of any kind with any Person with respect to any Shares on terms inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement (whether or not such agreements or arrangements are with Persons that are Parties to this Agreement), including agreements or arrangements with respect to the acquisition or disposition of any Shares in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement.

(b) Each Party acknowledges that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms and that a remedy at law for any breach or attempted breach of this Agreement will be inadequate. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief in case of any such breach or attempted breach and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, and further agrees to waive (to the extent legally permissible) any legal conditions required to be met for the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief (including securing or posting any bond in order to obtain equitable relief). Each Party further agrees that, in the event of any action for an injunction or other equitable remedy in respect of such breach or enforcement of specific performance, it will not assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

Section 16. Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute an agreement binding on all Parties hereto, notwithstanding that all such Parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. Facsimile copies of signatures shall constitute original signatures for all purposes of this Agreement and any enforcement hereof. The failure of any Stockholder to execute this Agreement shall not make it invalid as against any other Stockholder.

Section 17. Further Assurances.

Each Party hereto shall do and perform or cause to be done and performed all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments, and other documents as any other Party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 20. Waiver of Corporate Opportunities.

(a) To the extent allowed by law, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any other analogous doctrine, shall not apply with respect to the Corporation or any of its officers or directors, or any of their respective Affiliates, and the Corporation renounces any expectancy that any of the directors or officers of the Corporation will offer any such corporate opportunity of which he or she may become aware to the Corporation, except that the doctrine of corporate opportunity shall apply with respect to any of the directors or officers of the Corporation only with respect to a corporate opportunity (i) that was offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation, (ii) that is one the Corporation is legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for the Corporation to pursue and (iii) to the extent the director or officer is permitted to refer such opportunity to the Corporation without violating any legal obligation (such a corporate opportunity, a “Subject Opportunity”).

(the “BCP Sponsors”) and their respective Affiliates (including ISQ, BX Aggregator, BX Permian and New Raptor) may serve as directors, officers or agents of the Corporation, (ii) the BCP Sponsors and their respective Affiliates (including ISQ, BX Aggregator, BX Permian and New Raptor) may now engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage or other business activities that overlap with or compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage and (iii) members of the Board who are not employees of the Corporation and their Affiliates that may be designated, nominated or elected by the BCP Sponsors or their respective Affiliates (the “Non-Employee Directors”) may now engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage or other business activities that overlap with or compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage, the provisions of this Section 20 are set forth to regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation with respect to certain classes or categories of business opportunities as they may involve any of the BCP Sponsors, the Non-Employee Directors or their respective Affiliates and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation and its directors, officers and stockholders in connection therewith.

(c) None of (i) the BCP Sponsors or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) any Non-Employee Director (including any Non-Employee Director who serves as an officer of the Corporation in both his or her director and officer capacities) or his or her Affiliates (the Persons identified in clauses (i) and (ii) above being referred to, individually, as an “Identified Person”) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have any duty to refrain from directly or indirectly (1) engaging in the same or similar business activities or lines of business in which the Corporation or any of its Affiliates now engages or proposes to engage or (2) otherwise competing

with the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Identified Person shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders or to any Affiliate of the Corporation for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person engages in any such activities. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Corporation hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in, or right to be offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity that may be a corporate opportunity for an Identified Person and the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, except as provided in Section 20(d). Subject to Section 20(d), in the event that any Identified Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or other business opportunity that may be a corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself and the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, such Identified Person shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have no duty to communicate or offer such transaction or other business opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Affiliates and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders or to any Affiliate of the Corporation for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder, director or officer of the Corporation solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself, or offers or directs such corporate opportunity to another Person.

(d) The Corporation does not renounce its interest in any Subject Opportunity offered to any Non-Employee Director (including any Non-Employee Director who serves as an officer of this Corporation), and the provisions of Section 20(c) and Section 20(e) shall not apply to any such Subject Opportunity.

(e) In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 20, a corporate opportunity shall not be deemed to be a potential corporate opportunity for the Corporation if it is a business opportunity that (i) the Corporation is neither financially or legally able, nor contractually permitted to undertake, (ii) from its nature, is not in the line of the Corporation’s business or is of no practical advantage to the Corporation or (iii) is one in which the Corporation has no interest or reasonable expectancy.

Section 21. Dividends and Distributions.

Subject to the Corporation’s governing documents and applicable provisions of law, regulation, legal duty (including fiduciary duty) or requirement, or rule of any National Securities Exchange, for so long as Apache, I Squared or Blackstone is entitled to designate a director pursuant to Section 2(a), the Corporation shall not take any action to reduce, delay or discontinue the Altus Dividend prior to December 31, 2023 without the prior written consent of each of Apache, I Squared and Blackstone, as applicable, permitting such action. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that Apache, I Squared or Blackstone is no longer entitled to designate a director pursuant to Section 2(a), such Stockholder’s prior written consent shall not be required under this Section 21.

Section 22. Covered Related Party Transactions.

Any transaction between the Corporation or its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and a Stockholder or Affiliate of a Stockholder, on the other hand, that constitutes a Covered Related Party Transaction shall require the prior approval of 66% or more of the disinterested directors on the Board, as determined by the Board.

Section 23. Dividend Reinvestment Plan.

The Parties shall negotiate and enter into definitive documentation reasonably promptly following the date of this Agreement related to a dividend reinvestment plan with the terms described in Exhibit B hereto, to be implemented promptly following the Closing Date.

Section 24. Financial Statements. The Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to each Stockholder (so long as such Stockholder and its Affiliates Beneficially Own 10% or more of the outstanding Shares) (together, the “Recipient Parties”), at such Stockholder’s request:

(a) No later than 30 days after the end of each of the first three calendar quarters of each fiscal year, an unaudited consolidated balance sheet, consolidated income statement, and consolidated statement of cash flows of the Corporation and its subsidiaries for such calendar quarter;

(b) No later than 30 days after the end of each fiscal year, a draft consolidated balance sheet, draft consolidated income statement, and draft consolidated statement of cash flows of the Corporation and its subsidiaries for such fiscal year; and

(c) No later than 55 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Corporation Annual Financials (as defined in the LPA) for such fiscal year.

(d) Any Recipient Party may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Corporation requesting that such Person not receive from the Corporation any information provided pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 24; provided, however, that such Person may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice (unless subsequently revoked), the Corporation shall not deliver such information pursuant to this Section 24.

Section 25. Disclosure of Information. The Recipient Parties acknowledge that they will receive information from or regarding the Corporation and its subsidiaries in the nature of trade secrets or that otherwise is confidential information or proprietary information (as further defined below, “Confidential Information”), the release of which would be damaging to the Corporation or Persons with which the Corporation conducts business. Each Recipient Party shall hold in strict confidence any Confidential Information that such recipient receives pursuant to this Agreement, and each Recipient Party shall not disclose such Confidential Information to any Person (including any Affiliates) other than another Recipient Party or a director or officer of the Corporation, or otherwise use such information for any purpose other than to evaluate, analyze, and keep apprised of the Corporation’s and its subsidiaries’ assets and their interest therein and for the internal use thereof by a Recipient Party or its Affiliates, except for disclosures (i) to comply with any laws (including applicable stock exchange or quotation system requirements), provided, that a Recipient Party must notify the Corporation promptly of any disclosure of Confidential Information which is required by law, and any such disclosure of Confidential Information shall be to the minimum extent required by law, (ii) to Affiliates, partners, members, stockholders, investors, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, consultants, lenders, professional advisers or representatives of the Recipient Party or its Affiliates (provided, that such Recipient Party shall be

responsible for assuring such partners’, members’, stockholders’, investors’, directors’, officers’, employees’, agents’, attorneys’, consultants’, lenders’, professional advisers’ and representatives’ compliance with the terms hereof, except to the extent any such Person who is not a partner, member, stockholder, director, officer or employee has agreed in writing addressed to the Corporation to be bound by customary undertakings with respect to confidential and proprietary information similar to this Section 25), or to Persons to which that Recipient Party’s Shares are proposed to be transferred, but only if the recipients of such information have agreed to be bound by customary confidentiality undertakings similar to this Section 25, (iii) of information that a Recipient Party also has received from a source independent of the Corporation and that such Recipient Party reasonably believes such source obtained without breach of any obligation of confidentiality to the Corporation, (iv) of information obtained prior to the formation of the Corporation, provided, that this clause (iv) shall not relieve any Recipient Party or any of its Affiliates from any obligations it may have to any other Recipient Party or any of its Affiliates under any existing confidentiality agreement, (v) that have been or become independently developed by a Recipient Party or its Affiliates or on their behalf without using any of the Confidential Information, (vi) that are or become generally available to the public (other than as a result of a prohibited disclosure by such Recipient Party or its representatives), (vii) in connection with any proposed transfer of all or part of a Recipient Party’s Shares or the proposed sale of all or substantially all of a Recipient Party or its direct or indirect parent, to (A) advisers or representatives of the Recipient Party, (B) its direct or indirect parent or (C) Persons to which such interests may be transferred, but only if the recipients of such information have agreed to be bound by customary undertakings with respect to confidential and proprietary information similar to this Section 25 or (viii) to the extent the Corporation shall have consented to such disclosure in writing. The term “Confidential Information” shall include any information pertaining to the Corporation’s or any of its subsidiaries’ business which is not available to the public, whether written, oral, electronic, visual form or in any other media, including, without limitation, such information that is proprietary, confidential or concerning the Corporation’s (or any of its subsidiaries’) ownership and operation of their respective assets or related matters, including any actual or proposed operations or development project or strategies, other operations and business plans, actual or projected revenues and expenses, finances, contracts and books and records. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent applicable, the Recipient Parties and their Affiliates may make disclosures to their respective direct and indirect limited partners and members such information (including Confidential Information) as is customarily provided to current or prospective limited partners in private equity funds sponsored or managed by Affiliates of Blackstone and ISQ. Each Recipient Party acknowledges that Confidential Information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement may include material nonpublic information concerning the Corporation and its related parties or their respective securities and hereby confirms that it is familiar with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
