(i)    The Seller is a limited partnership duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Texas, has all requisite power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions where its ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of its business requires it to be so qualified and where failure to be so qualified would be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby on a timely basis, and the Seller has the limited partnership or other power and authority and governmental authorizations to own its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted.

The shares of Purchased Common Stock are not subject to any prior sale, transfer, assignment or participation by the Seller or any agreement by the Seller to assign, convey, transfer or participate, in whole or in part, and no other Person has any preemptive or similar rights to participate in the sale or transfer of the Purchased Common Stock to the Purchaser.

(i)    The Seller has the power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Seller and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Seller, and no further approval or authorization by any of the partners or other equity owners of the Seller is required. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Seller and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Purchaser, is a valid and binding obligation of the Seller enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms (except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar Laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or by general equity principles).

(ii)    The Seller is not (a) in violation of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the certificate of formation of the Seller or the partnership agreement (or other constituent governing document) of the Seller, (b) in violation of any law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, permit, or franchise applicable to it or of any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over the Seller or any of its properties or assets or (c) in breach, default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default) or violation in the performance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any note, bond, debenture, or any other evidence of indebtedness or in any agreement, indenture, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which the Seller or any of its properties or assets are bound, which breach, default or violation in the case

4

of clauses (b) or (c) would, if continued, reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby on a timely basis.

(iii)    Neither the sale and transfer by the Seller of the Purchased Common Stock, nor the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance by the Seller with any of the provisions hereof, will, (A) violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the termination of, or accelerate the performance required by, or result in a right of termination or acceleration of, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the material properties or assets of the Seller under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of (i) the governing instruments of the Seller or (ii) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, loan agreement, lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Seller is a party or by which it may be bound, or to which the Seller or any of the properties or assets of the Seller may be subject, or (B) violate any law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, permit, franchise or any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction or decree applicable to the Seller or any of its properties or assets, except in the case of clauses (A)(ii) and (B) for such violations, conflicts and breaches as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to expected to materially and adversely affect the Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby on a timely basis.

(iv)    No notice to, registration, declaration or filing with, exemption or review by, or authorization, order, consent or approval of, any court, administrative agency or commission or other governmental or arbitral body or authority or instrumentality, whether federal, state, local or foreign, and any applicable industry self-regulatory organization (each, a “Governmental Entity”), nor expiration or termination of any statutory waiting period, is necessary for the consummation by the Seller of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Seller, nor to the Knowledge of the Seller any other Person authorized by the Seller to act on its behalf, has engaged in a general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act) of investors with respect to offers or sales of the Purchased Common Stock and neither the Seller nor, to the Knowledge of the Seller, any Person acting on the Seller’s behalf has made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause the offering or issuance of Purchased Common Stock under this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by Earthstone or any sales by the Seller for purposes of the Securities Act that would result in none of Regulation D or any other applicable exemption from registration under

5

the Securities Act to be available, and the Seller will not take any action or steps that would cause the offering or issuance of the Purchased Common Stock under this Agreement to be integrated with other offerings.

(d)    Brokers and Finders.

Section 6.11    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person (including the officers and directors the parties hereto) 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 other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, will 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 is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

Section 6.12    No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto (and their permitted assigns), any benefit right or remedies.

Section 6.13    Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, without the necessity of posting bond or other undertaking, the parties shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof, this being in addition to any other remedies to which they are entitled at law or equity, and in the event that any action or suit is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party will allege, and each party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law.

(c)    by either the Seller or the Purchaser as to itself if a United States court of competent jurisdiction shall permanently enjoin the consummation of the Purchase and such injunction shall be final and non-appealable;

(d)    without any action by any party, if either the Acquisition Agreement or the PIPE SPA is terminated in accordance with its respective terms at any time prior to the Closing;

(e)    by notice given by the Seller to the Purchaser, if there have been one or more inaccuracies in or breaches of one or more representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Purchaser in this Agreement such that the conditions in Section 1.3(c)(i) or Section 1.3(c)(ii) would not be satisfied and which have not been cured by the Purchaser thirty (30) days after receipt by the Purchaser of written notice from the Seller requesting such inaccuracies or breaches to be cured; or

(f)    by notice given by the Purchaser to the Seller, if there have been one or more inaccuracies in or breaches of one or more representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Seller in this Agreement such that the conditions in Section 1.3(b)(i) or 1.3(b)(ii) would not be satisfied and which have not been cured by the Seller within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Seller of written notice from the Purchaser requesting such inaccuracies or breaches to be cured.

Section 6.15    Effects of Termination. Subject to Section 6.1, in the event of any termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.14, no party (or any of its Affiliates) shall have any liability or obligation to the other party (or any of its Affiliates) under or in respect of this Agreement, except to the extent of (A) any liability arising from any breach by such party of its obligations of this Agreement arising prior to such termination and (B) any fraud or intentional or willful breach of this Agreement. In the event of any such termination, this Agreement shall become void and have no effect, and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned without further action by the parties hereto, in each case, except (x) as set forth in the preceding sentence and (y) that the provisions of Sections 6.1 through 6.13, and Section 6.16 and Section 6.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 6.16    Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Claims or causes 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, including entities that become parties hereto after the date hereof, and no former, current or future equityholders, controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates of any party hereto or any former, current or future equityholder, controlling Person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, agent or Affiliate of any of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have

15

any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any Claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or in respect of any representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. Without limiting the rights of any party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any Claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse Party.
