(vii)

if any of the Securityholder’s Securities are registered in the name of a Person other than the Securityholder or otherwise held other than personally, the Securityholder will cause the registered owner of such securities to perform all covenants of the Securityholder under this Agreement as if the Securityholder.

(f)

The Securityholder agrees that, until the Expiry Date, the Securityholder will not take any other action of any kind which might reasonably be regarded as likely to reduce the success of, or delay or interfere with the completion of, the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement.

Earthstone agrees and acknowledges that the Securityholder is bound hereunder solely in his capacity as a shareholder of Lynden and that the provisions hereof shall not be deemed or interpreted to bind the Securityholder in his capacity as a director or officer of Lynden, if applicable.

This Agreement shall automatically terminate without further action and be of no further force and effect, without any notice or other action by any Person, upon the earliest to occur of (a) the termination of the Arrangement Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) the Effective Date, or (c) any change, by amendment, waiver or other modification, to any provision of the Arrangement Agreement or Plan of Arrangement that is adverse to the Securityholder in any material respect.

Earthstone may, at any time and without prejudice to any other rights it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, terminate this Agreement by notice in writing to the Securityholder.

Subject to the following sentence, in the case of termination of this Agreement pursuant to either Section 4.1 or 4.2, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, and the parties hereto will have no further obligation or liability to each other. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for any wilful or intentional breach of this Agreement prior to such termination.

Earthstone and the Securityholder will from time to time execute and deliver all such further documents and instruments and do all such acts and things as the other party may, before the Effective Date, reasonably require to effectively carry out or better evidence or perfect the full intent and meaning of this Agreement.

Subject to the following sentence, the representations and warranties of the Securityholder contained herein shall not survive the termination of the Arrangement Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall expire and terminate on the Expiry Date. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for any wilful or intentional breach of this Agreement prior to such termination.

Except as required by applicable laws or regulations, or as required by any competent governmental, judicial or other authority, or in accordance with the requirements of any stock exchange, including without limitation any such laws, regulations or requirements in respect of the Joint Circular, the Securityholder shall not make any public announcement or statement with respect to this Agreement or the Arrangement Agreement without the prior written approval of Earthstone.

Any date, time or period referred to in this Agreement shall be of the essence, except to the extent to which the Securityholder and Earthstone agree in writing to vary any date, time or period, in which event the varied date, time or period shall be of the essence.

Each of the parties recognizes and acknowledges that this Agreement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated in the Arrangement Agreement, that Earthstone would not enter into the Arrangement Agreement unless this Agreement was executed, and accordingly, acknowledges and agrees that a breach by a party of any covenants or other commitments contained in this Agreement will cause the other parties to sustain injury for which it would not have an adequate remedy at law for monetary damages. Therefore, each of the parties agrees that in the event of any such breach, the aggrieved party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants or commitments and preliminary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity, and the parties further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.

Each of the parties shall pay its legal, financial advisory and accounting costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and all documents and instruments executed or prepared pursuant hereto and any other costs and expenses whatsoever and howsoever incurred.

(a)

any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Securityholder and Earthstone or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective; and

(b)

no failure or delay by any 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.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the parties with respect thereto. No addition to, or modification of, any provision of this Agreement shall be binding upon any party hereto unless made in writing and signed by the parties hereto. This Agreement is not intended and does not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement.

All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given and received (i) on the date of delivery, if delivered in person, (ii) upon confirmation of transmission by the sender’s fax machine, if delivered by facsimile on a Business Day (or otherwise on the next Business Day), or (iii) on the first Business Day following the date of dispatch, if delivered by a nationally recognized next day courier service, to the respective parties at their addresses and fax numbers (as applicable) as follows:

If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the terms of this Agreement remain as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, provided that no party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).

The Securityholder acknowledges that it has entered into this Agreement willingly with full knowledge of the obligations imposed by the terms of this Agreement. The Securityholder further acknowledges that it has been afforded the opportunity to obtain independent legal advice and confirms by the execution of this Agreement that it has either done so or waived its right to do so, and agrees that this Agreement constitutes a binding legal obligation and that it is estopped from raising any claim on the basis that it has not obtained such advice.

Each of the parties shall be entitled to rely on delivery by facsimile or email of a copy of this Agreement executed by the other party hereto. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same document.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Earthstone any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Securityholder’s Securities except as may be deemed for the purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. All rights, ownership and economic benefit relating to the Securityholder’s Securities shall remain vested in and belong to the Securityholder, and Earthstone shall have no authority to direct the Securityholder in the voting or disposition of any of the Securityholder’s Securities, except as otherwise provided herein.

This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be deemed, to confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

This Voting Support Agreement has been agreed and accepted as of the date first written above.
