Holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive equally, on a per share basis, such dividends or distributions as are lawfully declared on the Common Stock, to have notice of any authorized meeting of holders of Common Stock, and, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, to share equally, on a per share basis, in the assets thereof that may be available for distribution after satisfaction of creditors and of the preferences of shares of Preferred Stock. Except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation (as defined below)) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation (as defined below)) or pursuant to the VSCA, provided that such amendment does not alter or change the designations, powers, preferences or rights of the shares of Common Stock so as to affect them adversely.

The Board of Directors of the Corporation is hereby authorized, to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and without shareholder action, to provide for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof by adoption of an amendment to the articles of incorporation (any such amendment of the articles of incorporation adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation designating the designations, powers, preferences and rights, and qualifications, limitations, or restrictions, of shares of Preferred Stock, a “Preferred Stock Designation”). The authority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation with respect to each series shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following:

(h)whether the shares of the series shall be convertible or exercisable into or exchangeable for shares of any other class or series, or any other security, of the Corporation or any other corporation or entity, and, if so, the specification of such other class or series or such other security, the conversion, exercise or exchange price or prices or rate or rates, any adjustments thereof, the date or dates at which such shares shall be convertible, exercisable or exchangeable and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion, exercise or exchange may be made;

(i)restrictions on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series; and

Except as otherwise required by law, holders of a series of Preferred Stock, as such, shall be entitled only to such voting rights, if any, as shall be expressly granted thereto by these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation). Except as may be provided in these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or in any Preferred Stock Designation, holders of Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive notice of any meeting of shareholders at which they are not entitled to vote.

Section 4.4No Preemptive Rights. Subject to preemptive rights, if any, in respect of issuances of capital stock by the Corporation or its subsidiaries of (a) the holders of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation set forth in that certain Shareholders Agreement, dated as of the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan Confirmation Order), by and among the Corporation and each of the shareholders identified therein, as may be amended from time to time (the “Shareholders Agreement”), or (b) the holders of shares of any class or series of Preferred Stock then outstanding set forth in the Preferred Stock Designation applicable thereto, no holders of shares of the Corporation shall have any preemptive rights.

Section 4.5Record Holders. The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the person or entity in whose name any share of its stock is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such share on the part of any other person or entity, whether or not the Corporation shall have notice thereof, except as expressly provided by applicable law.

Section 4.6Nonvoting Stock. To the extent prohibited by Section 1123 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, as amended, the Corporation shall not issue any class or series of nonvoting stock; provided, however, that the foregoing (a) will have no further force and effect

beyond that required under Section 1123 of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) will have such force and effect, if any, only for so long as such Section 1123 is in effect and applicable to the Corporation and (c) may be amended or eliminated in accordance with applicable law as from time to time in effect. For the purposes of this Section 4.6, any class or series of stock that has only such voting rights as are mandated by the VSCA shall be deemed to be nonvoting for purposes of the restrictions of this Section 4.6.

Section 4.7[Reserved].

Section 4.8[Reserved].

Section 4.9Action Without a Meeting. Until the date on which the Corporation completes a Public Listing or an IPO, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock of the Corporation having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the Commonwealth of Virginia, its principal place of business, or to an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of shareholders are recorded. Following the date on which the Corporation completes a Public Listing or an IPO, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all the holders of outstanding stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon.

Section 4.10Series A Preferred Stock. The provisions in this Section 4.10, which shall apply notwithstanding anything in these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to the contrary, constitute a Preferred Stock Designation.

(a)Designation and Number of Shares. Pursuant to these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, there is hereby created out of the authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock a series of Preferred Stock consisting of 300,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated as “Series A Preferred Stock” (the “Series A Preferred Stock”).

(b)Permitted Owners. Shares of the Series A Preferred Stock may be issued only to, and registered in the name of, JSTX Holdings, LLC and Rocky Creek Resources, LLC (collectively, the “Investors”), their respective successors and permitted assigns in accordance with Section 4.10(f) (including all subsequent successors and permitted assigns) (the Investors together with such persons, collectively, the “Permitted Series A Owners”).

(c)Voting.

(i)Each one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share of Series A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the

holders of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Corporation (the “Common Stock”), as adjusted to account for any subdivision (by stock split, subdivision, exchange, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, exchange, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock occurring after the effective date of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation.

(ii)Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.10 or in any other Articles of Amendment creating a class or series of preferred stock or any similar stock, or by applicable law, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Common Stock, and the holders of any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally together with the Common Stock shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of such Common Stock.

(iii)Except as otherwise required by law or these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, for so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the prior vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding, voting separately as a single class, amend, alter or repeal any provision of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, if such amendment, alteration or repeal would adversely alter or change the powers, preferences or relative, participating, optional or other or special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of Series A Preferred Stock were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Virginia, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which minutes of proceedings of shareholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Prompt written notice of the taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall, to the extent required by law, be given to those holders of Series A Preferred Stock who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for notice of such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders of Series A Preferred Stock to take the action were delivered to the Corporation.

(iv)The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights except as set forth herein, in these Third Amended and Restated Articles of

Incorporation, in the Investor and Registration Rights Agreement, dated on or around January 15, 2021, by and among the Corporation and the other parties thereto (the “IRRA”), or as provided by applicable law.

(d)Board Representation.

(i)Prior the effective date of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the Board increased the size of the Board by five directors (to nine total directors) and, promptly thereafter, but in any event upon effectiveness of the IRRA, the Board caused five of such newly created directorships to be filled with five individuals designated by the Permitted Series A Owners (in such capacity, each an “Investor Director” and together with any other person designated to replace any such person in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.10(d), and including both Investor Affiliated Directors and Investor Non-Affiliated Directors, the “Investor Directors”), all of whom may be Investor Affiliated Directors, by written consent or other written instrument delivered to the Corporation.

(ii)In addition to the vote in Section 4.10(c)(i), for so long as the Permitted Series A Owners have the right to redeem or exchange Common Units (as defined below) for Common Stock pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement (as defined below) in such percentages relative to the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding as set forth below, the holders of a majority of the total number of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Permitted Series A Owner Majority”) shall have the exclusive right, voting separately as a class and to the exclusion of the Common Stock and any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation, to designate to the Board the following number of Investor Directors:

(A)up to five Investor Directors, all of whom may be Investor Affiliated Directors, until such time as (X) the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable to the Permitted Series A Owners upon redemption or exchange of the Common Units for Common Stock pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement, plus (Y) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then held by the Permitted Series A Owners (such sum, the “Total Series A Ownership”) continuously held is less than or equal to 50% of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable to the Permitted Series A Owners upon redemption or exchange of the Common Units for Common Stock pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement plus (2) the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (such sum, the “Total Shares”) (the “First Step Down Event”);

(B)up to four Investor Directors, each of whom may be Investor Affiliated Directors, until such time as the Total Series A Ownership continuously held is less than 40% of the Total Shares (the “Second Step Down Event”);

continuously held is less than 30% of the Total Shares (the “Third Step Down Event”);

(D)up to two Investor Directors, each of whom may be an Investor Affiliated Director, until such time as the Total Series A Ownership continuously held is less than 20% of the Total Shares (the “Fourth Step Down Event”); and

(E)up to one Investor Director, who may be an Investor Affiliated Director, until such time as the Total Series A Ownership continuously held is less than 10% of the Total Shares (the “Fifth Step Down Event,” and together with the First Step Down Event, the Second Step Down Event, the Third Step Down Event and the Fourth Step Down Event, each a “Step Down Event”).

(iii)The Corporation shall take all actions within its power to cause all Investor Directors designated pursuant to this Section 4.10(d) to be included in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election as directors at each annual or special meeting called for the purpose of electing directors (and/or in connection with any election by written consent). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Investor Directors designated pursuant to this Section 4.10(d) shall be elected by the Permitted Series A Owner Majority, voting separately as a class and to the exclusion of the Common Stock and any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation, and may be elected, at the option of the Permitted Series A Owner Majority, either (i) by written consent of the Permitted Series A Owner Majority or (ii) at annual or special meetings called for the purpose of electing directors.

(iv)For so long as the Permitted Series A Owners have the right to designate directors pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(ii), the size of the Board shall not be decreased in a manner that would limit such designation rights.

(v)Each Investor Director designated pursuant to this Section 4.10(d) shall serve until his or her successor is designated or his or her earlier death, disability, resignation or removal. Any vacancy or newly created directorship in the position of an Investor Director may be filled only by the Permitted Series A Owner Majority, and may be filled with immediate effect by written consent of the Permitted Series A Owner Majority, subject to the fulfillment of the requirements set forth in Section 4.10(d)(vii). Subject to Section 4.10(d)(viii), each Investor Director may, during his or her term of office, be removed at any time, with or without cause, by and only by the Permitted Series A Owner Majority.

(vi)At all times while an Investor Director is serving as a member of the Board, and following any such Investor Director’s death, disability, resignation or removal, such Investor Director shall be entitled to all rights to indemnification and exculpation as are then made available to any other member of the Board.

(vii)Each Investor Director shall satisfy the requirements set forth in Sections 3.02(c) and 3.02(d) of the IRRA.

(viii)Upon the occurrence of any Step Down Event, such Investor Directors then serving on the Board in excess of the entitled number pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(ii) (as selected by the Permitted Series A Owner Majority) shall promptly (and in any event prior to the time the Board next takes any action, whether at a meeting or by written consent) resign from the Board and the number of directors comprising the Board shall automatically be reduced consistent with Section 3.01(d) of the IRRA, and the corresponding right to designate directors pursuant to the applicable subsection of Section 4.10(d)(ii) shall automatically terminate, such that:

(A)upon the occurrence of the First Step Down Event (but prior to the Second Step Down Event), if there are five Investor Affiliated Directors then serving on the Board, one Investor Affiliated Director shall promptly resign, and such vacancy shall be filled by the Board based on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, but in any event such replacement director shall be a Non-Affiliated Director, and the right to designate directors pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(ii)(A) shall automatically terminate;

(B)upon the occurrence of the Second Step Down Event (but prior to the Third Step Down Event), (x) if there are four Investor Directors then serving on the Board, one Investor Director shall promptly resign and (y) any director elected to fill a vacancy pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(viii)(A), shall promptly resign, and the size of the Board shall automatically be reduced by two directors (to seven total directors) and the right to designate directors pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(ii)(B) shall automatically terminate;

(C)upon the occurrence of the Third Step Down Event (but prior to the Fourth Step Down Event), if there are three Investor Directors then serving on the Board, one Investor Director shall promptly resign, the size of the Board shall automatically be reduced by one director (to six total directors) and the right to designate directors pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(ii)(C) shall automatically terminate;

(D)upon the occurrence of the Fourth Step Down Event (but prior to the Fifth Step Down Event), if there are two Investor Directors then serving on the Board, one Investor Director shall promptly resign, the size of the Board shall automatically be reduced by one director (to five total directors) and the right to designate directors pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(ii)(D) shall automatically terminate; and

(E)upon the occurrence of the Fifth Step Down Event, if there is an Investor Director then serving on the Board, that remaining Investor Director shall promptly resign from the Board, unless the Non-Affiliated Directors, by a

majority vote, determine otherwise, and the right to designate directors pursuant to Section 4.10(d)(ii) shall automatically terminate.

(ix)If, following the redemption or exchange of Common Units for Common Stock pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement, or after termination of this Certificate of Designation or such time as no shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Permitted Series A Owners would continue to satisfy the ownership percentages set forth in Section 4.10(d)(ii) as a result of their continuous ownership of Common Stock relative to the Total Shares, the Permitted Series A Owners may request the Corporation to enter into such agreements reflecting the rights set forth in this Section 4.10(d), which the Corporation and the Permitted Series A Owners shall enter into as promptly as practicable after such request (but in any event, no later than 30 days after such request).

(e)Dividends; Non-Economic Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and this Section 4.10, (i) dividends shall not be declared or paid on the Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) the Series A Preferred Stock shall otherwise be non-economic interests in the Corporation in all respects.

(f)Transfer of Series A Preferred Stock.

(i)Subject to Section 4.10(g)(iii), a holder of Series A Preferred Stock may surrender shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) to the Corporation for no consideration at any time. Following the surrender of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) to the Corporation, the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares (or fractions) and such shares (or fractions) shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(ii)A holder of Series A Preferred Stock may transfer shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) to any transferee (other than the Corporation) only if, and only to the extent, (i) such transfer would be permitted by the Limited Partnership Agreement (as defined below) and (ii) such holder also simultaneously transfers one Common Unit for each one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share of Series A Preferred Stock transferred to such transferee in compliance with the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of PV Energy Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), dated on or around January 15, 2021, as such agreement may be further amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”). The transfer restrictions described in this Section 4.10(f)(ii) are referred to as the “Restrictions.”

(iii)Any purported transfer of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) in violation of the Restrictions shall be null and void. If, notwithstanding the Restrictions, a person shall, voluntarily or involuntarily, purportedly become or attempt to become, the purported owner (“Purported Owner”) of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) in violation of the Restrictions, then the

Purported Owner shall not obtain any rights in and to such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) (the “Restricted Shares”), and the purported transfer of the Restricted Shares to the Purported Owner shall not be recognized by the Corporation’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”).

(iv)The Board may, with the approval of a majority of the Non-Affiliated Directors if such approval is sought before the First Step Down Event, and to the extent permitted by law, from time to time establish, modify, amend or rescind, by bylaw or otherwise, regulations and procedures that are consistent with the provisions of this Section 4.10(f) for determining whether any transfer or acquisition of shares of Series A Preferred Stock would violate the Restrictions and for the orderly application, administration and implementation of the provisions of this Section 4.10(f). Any such procedures and regulations shall be kept on file with the Secretary of the Corporation and with its Transfer Agent and shall be made available for inspection by any prospective transferee and, upon written request, shall be mailed to holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(g)Conversion; Redemption; Cancellation of Series A Preferred Stock.

(i)The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into any other security of the Corporation.

(ii)To the extent that any Permitted Series A Owner exercises its right pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement to have its Common Units redeemed by the Partnership in accordance with the Limited Partnership Agreement, then simultaneously with the payment of the consideration due under the Limited Partnership Agreement to such Permitted Series A Owner, the Corporation shall cancel for no consideration a number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) registered in the name of the redeeming or exchanging Permitted Series A Owner equal to one one-hundredth (1/100th) of the number of Common Units held by such Permitted Series A Owner that are redeemed or exchanged in such redemption or exchange transaction. The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon redemption or exchange of the Common Units for Common Stock pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement, such number of shares of Common Stock that shall be issuable upon any such redemption or exchange pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Corporation from satisfying its obligations in respect of any such redemption of Common Units pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement by delivering to the holder of Common Units upon such redemption cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock in the amount permitted by and as provided in the Limited Partnership Agreement. All shares of Common Stock that shall be issued upon any such redemption or exchange will, upon issuance in accordance with the Limited Partnership Agreement, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(iii)In the event of an Adjustment Surrender (as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement), the Corporation shall cancel in exchange for the aggregate par value thereof a number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or fractions thereof) registered in the name of the applicable Permitted Series A Owner equal to one one-hundredth (1/100th) of the number of Common Units surrendered to the Partnership by such Permitted Series A Owner pursuant to Section 3.03(c)(i) of the Limited Partnership Agreement.

(iv)In the event that no Permitted Series A Owner owns any Common Units that are redeemable or exchangeable pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement, then all shares of Series A Preferred Stock (and fractions thereof) will be cancelled for no consideration, and the Corporation will take all actions necessary to retire such shares (and fractions thereof) and such shares (and fractions thereof) shall not be re-issued by the Corporation.

(h)Restrictive Legend. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be issued in book-entry form and shall not be certificated. All book entries representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall bear a legend substantially in the following form (or in such other form as the Board may determine):

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 7.1Definitions. For purposes of this Article VII the following definitions shall apply:

(a)“expenses” include counsel fees, expert witness fees, and costs of investigation, litigation and appeal, as well as any amounts expended in asserting a claim for indemnification;

(b)“indemnitee-related entities” means any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (other than the Corporation or any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise for which the Indemnitee has agreed, on behalf of the Corporation or at the Corporation’s request, to serve as a director, officer, employee or agent and which service is covered by the indemnity described herein) from whom an Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses with respect to which, in whole or in part, the Corporation may also have an indemnification or advancement obligation;

(c)“jointly indemnifiable claims” shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any action, suit or proceeding for which the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses from both the indemnitee-related entities and the Corporation pursuant to applicable law, any agreement, articles of incorporation, bylaws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or comparable organizational documents of the Corporation or the indemnitee-related entities, as applicable;

(d)“liability” means the obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine, or other such obligation, including, without limitation, any excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan;

(e)“legal entity” means a corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise;

(f)“predecessor entity” means a legal entity the existence of which ceased upon its acquisition by the Corporation in a merger or otherwise; and

(g)“proceeding” means any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, proceeding or appeal whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal.

Section 7.2Indemnification of Directors and Officers. To the fullest extent permitted by the VSCA, as it exists on the date hereof or may hereafter be amended, the Corporation shall indemnify any individual who is, was or is threatened to be made a party to a proceeding (including a proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation) because such individual is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or because such individual is or was serving the Corporation or any other legal entity in any capacity at the request of the Corporation (an “Indemnitee”), against all liabilities and reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding. Service as a director or officer of a legal entity controlled by the Corporation shall be deemed service at the request of the Corporation. The determination that indemnification under this Section 7.2 is permissible and the evaluation as to the reasonableness of expenses in a specific case shall be made, in the case of a director, as provided by law, and in the case of an officer, as provided in Section 7.3? provided, however, that if a majority of the directors of the Corporation has changed after the date of the alleged conduct giving rise to a claim for indemnification, such determination and evaluation shall, at the option of the person claiming indemnification, be made by special legal counsel agreed upon by the Board of Directors and such person. Unless a determination has been made that indemnification is not permissible, the Corporation shall make advances and reimbursements for expenses incurred by a director or officer in a proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking from such director or officer to repay the same if it is ultimately determined that such director or officer is not entitled to indemnification. Such undertaking shall be an unlimited, unsecured general obligation of the director or officer and shall be accepted without reference to such director’s or officer’s ability to make repayment. The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not of itself create a presumption that a director or officer acted in such a manner as to make such director or officer ineligible for indemnification. The Corporation is authorized to contract in advance to indemnify and make advances and reimbursements for expenses to any of its directors or officers to the same extent provided in this Section 7.2. The rights of each person entitled to indemnification under this Article VII shall inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and administrators. Special legal counsel selected to make determinations under this Article VII may be counsel for the Corporation.

Section 7.3Procedures for Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Any indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Article VII shall be made promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days, upon the written request of the Indemnitee, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be twenty (20) days. If a determination by the Corporation that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII is required, and the Corporation fails to respond within sixty (60) days to a written request for indemnity, the Corporation shall be deemed to have approved the request. If the Corporation denies a written request for indemnification or

advancement of expenses, in whole or in part, or if payment in full pursuant to such request is not made within thirty (30) days (or twenty (20) days in the case of a claim for advancement of expenses), the right to indemnification or advancement of expenses as granted by this Article VII shall be enforceable by the Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such Indemnitee’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing the right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, shall also be indemnified by the Corporation. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the Indemnitee has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the VSCA for the Corporation to indemnify the Indemnitee for the amount claimed, but the burden of such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the VSCA nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) that the Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article VII or otherwise, shall be on the Corporation.

Section 7.4Requested Services. Without limiting the meaning of the phrase “serving at the request of the Corporation” as used herein, any person serving as a director, officer or equivalent executive of (a) another corporation of which a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of its directors is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, or (b) any employee benefit plan maintained or sponsored by the Corporation or any corporation referred to in clause (a), shall be deemed to be doing so at the request of the Corporation for purposes of Section 7.2.

Section 7.5Indemnification of Others. The Corporation may, to a lesser extent or to the same extent that it is required to provide indemnification and make advances and reimbursements for expenses to its directors and officers pursuant to Section 7.2, provide indemnification and make advances and reimbursements for expenses to its employees and agents, the directors, officers, employees and agents of its subsidiaries and predecessor entities, and any person serving any other legal entity in any capacity at the request of the Corporation, and may contract in advance to do so. The determination that indemnification under this Section 7.5 is permissible, the authorization of such indemnification and the evaluation as to the reasonableness of expenses in a specific case shall be made as authorized from time to time by general or specific action of the Board of Directors, which action may be taken before or after a claim for indemnification is made, or as otherwise provided by law. No person’s rights under Section 7.2 shall be limited by the provisions of this Section 7.5.

Section 7.6Contract Rights. The provisions of this Article VII shall be deemed to be a contract right between the Corporation and each Indemnitee and such rights shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent, or if the relevant provisions of the VSCA or other applicable law cease to be in effect. Such contract right shall vest for each Indemnitee who is a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent at the time such person is elected or appointed to such position, and no repeal or modification of this Article VII or any such law shall affect any such vested rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts or proceeding arising after such election or appointment and prior to such repeal or modification.

Section 7.7Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on its own behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Corporation or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the VSCA or this Article VII.

Section 7.8Merger or Consolidation. For purposes of this Article VII, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including, without limitation, any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merged in a merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Article VII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he or she would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

Section 7.9Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights to indemnification and the advancement of expenses and costs conferred under this Article VII shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses and costs may be entitled under any applicable law, provision of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. The Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors or officers respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the VSCA or by any other applicable law.

Section 7.10Amendments. No amendment, repeal or modification of, and no adoption of any provision inconsistent with, any provision of this Article VII shall adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer of the Corporation existing by virtue of this Article VII at the time of such amendment, repeal, modification or adoption.

Section 7.11Jointly Indemnifiable Claims. Given that certain jointly indemnifiable claims (as defined below) may arise due to the service of the Indemnitee as a director and/or officer of the Corporation at the request of the indemnitee-related entities (as defined below), the Corporation shall be fully and primarily responsible for the payment to the Indemnitee in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses in connection with any such jointly indemnifiable claims, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Article VII, irrespective of any right of recovery the Indemnitee may have from the indemnitee-related entities. Under no circumstance shall the Corporation be entitled to any right of subrogation against or contribution by the indemnitee-related entities and no right of advancement, indemnification or recovery the Indemnitee may have from the indemnitee-related entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the Indemnitee or the obligations of the Corporation under this Article VII. In the event that any of the indemnitee-related entities shall make any payment to the Indemnitee in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses with respect to any jointly indemnifiable claim, the indemnitee-related entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee against the Corporation, and the Indemnitee shall execute all documents and instruments reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents and instruments as may be necessary to enable the indemnitee-related entities effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. Each of the indemnitee-related entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section 7.11 and entitled to enforce this Section 7.11.

ARTICLE VIII
LIMITED LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS

To the fullest extent permitted by the VSCA, as it exists on the date hereof or may hereafter be amended, a director or officer of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages with respect to any transaction, occurrence or course of conduct, whether prior or subsequent to the date hereof. Any repeal or amendment or modification of this Article VIII, or the adoption of any provision of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article VIII, will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in applicable law permits the Corporation to provide a broader limitation on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto), and will not adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability of any director of the Corporation at the time of such repeal or amendment or modification or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

ARTICLE IX
ELECTION

The Corporation expressly elects not to be governed by Article 14 (Affiliated Transactions) of the VSCA.

ARTICLE X
CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

Section 10.1 General. To the greatest extent permitted by law and except as otherwise set forth in these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and except as expressly agreed to by a Dual Role Person (as defined below) in a separate instrument signed by a Dual Role Person with the Corporation or any predecessor thereto:

(a)To the extent provided in this Article X, the Corporation renounces any interest or expectancy of the Corporation or any of its Affiliates in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any Corporate Opportunity about which a Dual Role Person acquires knowledge. Subject to Section 10.1(c), no Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives shall owe any fiduciary duty to, nor shall any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives be liable for breach of fiduciary duty to, the Corporation or any of its shareholders in connection with a Corporate Opportunity. No Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives shall violate a duty or obligation to the Corporation merely because such person’s conduct furthers such person’s own interest, except as specifically set forth in Section 10.1(c). Any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives may lend money to, and transact other business with, the Corporation and its Representatives. The rights and obligations of any such person who lends money to, contracts with, borrows from or transacts business with the Corporation or any of its Representatives are the same as those of a person who is not involved with the Corporation or any of its Representatives, subject to other applicable law. No transaction between any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives, on the one hand, with the Corporation or any of its Representatives, on the other hand, shall be voidable solely because any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives has a direct or indirect interest in the transaction. Nothing herein contained shall prevent any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives from conducting any other business, including serving as an officer, director, employee, or shareholder of any corporation, partnership or limited liability company, a trustee of any trust, an executor or administrator of any estate, or an administrative official of any other business or not-for-profit entity, or from receiving any compensation in connection therewith.

(b)No Dual Role Person nor any of their respective Representatives shall owe any duty to refrain from (i) engaging in the same or similar activities or lines of business as the Corporation and its Representatives or (ii) doing business with any of the Corporation’s or its Representatives’ clients or customers. In the event that any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a Corporate Opportunity for any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Corporation or any of its Representatives, on the other hand, such Dual Role Person or Representatives, as the case may be, shall have no duty to communicate or offer such Corporate Opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Representatives, subject to Section 10.1(c). No Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives shall be liable to the Corporation, any of its shareholders or any of its Representatives for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of the fact that any Dual Role Person or any of their respective Representatives pursues or acquires such Corporate Opportunity for itself, directs such Corporate

Opportunity to another person or does not present such Corporate Opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Representatives, subject to Section 10.1(c).

(c)If a third party presents a Corporate Opportunity to a person who is both a Representative of the Corporation and a Representative of a Dual Role Person, expressly and solely in such person’s capacity as a Representative of the Corporation, and such person acts in good faith in a manner consistent with the policy that such Corporate Opportunity belongs to the Corporation, then such person (i) shall be deemed to have fully satisfied and fulfilled any fiduciary duty that such person has to the Corporation as a Representative of the Corporation with respect to such Corporate Opportunity, (ii) shall not be liable to the Corporation, any of its shareholders or any of its Representatives for breach of fiduciary duty by reason of such person’s action or inaction with respect to such Corporate Opportunity, (iii) shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in, and not opposed to, the Corporation’s best interests, and (iv) shall be deemed not to have breached such person’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation and its shareholders and not have derived an improper personal benefit therefrom; provided that a Dual Role Person may pursue such Corporate Opportunity if the Corporation shall decide not to pursue such Corporate Opportunity.

(d)For purposes of this Article X:

(i)“Affiliate” means with respect to any Person, any other Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with such Person. For purposes of the foregoing definition, the term “controls,” “is controlled by,” or “is under common control with” means the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

(ii)“Corporate Opportunity” means any business opportunity that the Corporation is financially able to undertake that is, from its nature, in the Corporation’s lines of business, is of practical advantage to the Corporation and is one in which the Corporation has an interest or a reasonable expectancy, and in which, by embracing such opportunity, the self-interest of any Dual Role Person or their respective Representatives will be brought into conflict with the Corporation’s self-interest.

(iii)“Dual Role Person” means any individual who is a director of the Corporation and is otherwise an employee, officer or a director of a shareholder.

(iv)“Representatives” means, with respect to any person, the directors, officers, employees, general partners or managing member of such person.

(e)Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or obtaining any interest in any capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice and to have consented to the provisions of this Article X.

Section 10.2 Amendment. Neither the alteration, amendment, termination, expiration or repeal of this Article X nor the adoption of any provision inconsistent with this Article X shall

eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article X in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action that, but for this Article X, would accrue or arise, prior to such alteration, amendment, termination, expiration, repeal or adoption.

Section 10.3 Notice of Article. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this Article X.

ARTICLE XI
FORUM

Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or Corporation’s shareholders, (c) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the VSCA, or (d) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine shall be the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, (or, if United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia lacks subject matter jurisdiction, another state or federal court located within the Commonwealth of Virginia). Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be the federal district courts of the United States of America. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article XI.

ARTICLE XII
AMENDMENTS

The Corporation reserves the right at any time from time to time to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, and any other provisions authorized by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia at the time in force may be added or inserted, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed herein or by applicable law.

inconsistent with, Article X. Nothing in this Article XII shall limit the authority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation conferred by Section 6.1 hereof.

ARTICLE XIII
SEVERABILITY

If any provision or provisions of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of these Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Exhibit 10.2

PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (OFFICER)

PENN VIRGINIA CORPORATION

2019 MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN

This Performance Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of the __ day of _______, ___ (the “Grant Date”) between Penn Virginia Corporation (the “Company”), and _____________ (“Participant”), and is made pursuant to the terms of the Penn Virginia Corporation 2019 Management Incentive Plan (as the same may be amended, the “Plan”). Any capitalized term used herein but not defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

Section 1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to Participant, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, a target Restricted Stock Unit Award consisting of ______ restricted stock units (“Restricted Stock Units”), provided that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the final number of Restricted Stock Units earned by the Participant (if any) shall be determined on the vesting date in accordance with the performance criteria set forth on Schedule I (the “Schedule”). As used in this Agreement, “Performance Period” shall refer to the Performance Period set forth on the Schedule. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock.

Section 2. Vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.

(a)Generally. The number of Restricted Stock Units that are earned (if any) for the Performance Period shall be based on the extent to which the Company has satisfied the performance conditions set forth on the Schedule, subject to Participant’s continuous Service with the Company from the Grant Date through the last day of the Performance Period.

(b)Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control that involves a merger, reclassification, reorganization, or other similar transaction in which the surviving entity, the Company’s successor or the direct or indirect parent of the surviving entity or the Company’s successor, fails to assume this Restricted Stock Unit Award or substitute this Restricted Stock Unit Award with a substantially equivalent award, the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall become earned and vest assuming that the Performance Period ended on the date of the Change in Control with performance assessed under the performance conditions set forth on the Schedule through the date of such Change in Control (or through the close of the last fiscal quarter ending on or prior to the Change in Control, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), subject to Participant’s continuous Service with the Company from the Grant Date through the date of the Change of Control. Such earned and vested Restricted Stock Units shall be settled immediately prior to the consummation of, but contingent upon the occurrence of, the Change in Control.

Section 3. Termination of Service. Upon the occurrence of a termination of Participant’s Service prior to the last day of the Performance Period, the Restricted Stock Units shall be treated as set forth below.

(a)Death; Disability; Termination by the Company without Cause; Resignation for Good Reason. Upon the occurrence of a termination of Participant’s Service as a result of death or Disability,or by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause or by a resignation by the Participant for Good Reason, the continued service requirements that apply to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall cease to apply and a pro-rata number of Restricted Stock Units shall vest on the date of such termination of Service equal to (1) the number of Restricted Stock Units that would have otherwise been earned based on performance under the performance conditions set forth on the Schedule through the date of such termination of Service (or through the close of the last fiscal quarter ending on or prior to the date of such termination of Service, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is that number of days during the period commencing on the first day of the Performance Period and ending on the last day of employment, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a termination of Participant’s Service by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause or by a resignation by the Participant for Good Reason, in either case that occurs within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, the continued service requirements that apply to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall cease to apply and a number of Restricted Stock Units shall vest on the date of such termination of Service equal to 100% of the number of Restricted Stock Units that would have otherwise been earned based on performance under the performance conditions set forth on the Schedule through the date of such termination of Service (or through the close of the last fiscal quarter ending on or prior to the date of such termination of Service, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion).

(b)Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms set forth below shall have the following respective meanings:

(i) “Disability” shall mean a disability that entitles the Participant to benefits under the Company’s long-term disability plan, as may be in effect from time to time, as determined by the plan administrator of the long-term disability plan.

(ii) “Good Reason” has the meaning ascribed to such term in any employment agreement between the Participant and the Company or, if none, means the occurrence of any of the following events or conditions: (i) a material diminution in the Participant’s title, authority, duties or responsibilities, (ii) a material reduction in the Participant’s base salary or annual cash incentive compensation opportunity or (iii) the relocation of the Participant to a location more than fifty (50) miles from the location at which the Participant is based on the Grant Date; provided, however, that such event or condition remains uncured forty-five (45) days following Participant’s delivery to the Company of written notice of the specific grounds for Good Reason, which notice is delivered within forty-five (45) days following the initial occurrence of the event or condition giving rise to Good Reason.

(c)Other Terminations of Service. Upon the occurrence of a termination of Participant’s Service for any reason other than as provided in Section 2 or Section 3(a), all unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled and Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other amount with respect thereto.

Section 4. Settlement. Any Restricted Stock Units that become vested and non-forfeitable pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3 (“Vested RSUs”) shall be settled as set forth in Section 2(b) (if applicable), or as soon as administratively practicable following the vesting date, but in no event later than March 15th of the year following the year in which such vesting date occurs (if Section 2(b) is not applicable). Vested RSUs will be settled, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, by the Company through the delivery to the Participant of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Vested RSUs.

No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued. Any fractional earned Restricted Stock Units will be rounded down to the next whole number.

Section 5. Restrictions on Transfer. Except as permitted under Section 11 of the Plan, no Restricted Stock Units may be transferred, pledged, assigned, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in any way by Participant, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In the event that Participant becomes legally incapacitated, Participant’s rights with respect to the Restricted Stock Units shall be exercisable by Participant’s legal guardian or legal representative. The Restricted Stock Units shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Restricted Stock Units contrary to the provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon any Restricted Stock Units, shall be null and void and without effect.

Section 6. Investment Representation. Upon any acquisition of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units at a time when there is not in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the shares of Common Stock, Participant hereby represents and warrants, and by virtue of such acquisition shall be deemed to represent and warrant, to the Company that such shares of Common Stock shall be acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and not with any present intention of distributing the same, and Participant shall provide the Company with such further representations and warranties as the Company may reasonably require in order to ensure compliance with applicable federal and state securities, blue sky and other laws. No shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units shall be acquired unless and until the Company and/or Participant have complied with all applicable federal or state registration, listing and/or qualification requirements and all other requirements of law or of any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, unless the Committee reasonably determines that Participant may acquire such shares of Common Stock pursuant to an exemption from registration under the applicable securities laws.

Section 7. Adjustments. The Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of the Plan, including Section 4.2 thereof.

Section 8. No Right of Continued Service. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon Participant any right to continued Service with the Company or any Affiliate.

Section 9. Limitation of Rights; Dividend Equivalents. Participant shall not have any privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Restricted Stock Units, including, without limitation, any right to vote any shares of Common Stock underlying such Restricted Stock Units or to receive dividends or other distributions or payments of any kind in respect thereof or exercise any other right of a holder of any such securities, unless and until there is a date of settlement and issuance to Participant of the underlying shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Stock Unit Award granted hereunder is hereby granted in tandem with corresponding dividend equivalents with respect to each share of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Unit Award granted hereunder (each, a “Dividend Equivalent”), which Dividend Equivalent shall remain outstanding from the Grant Date until the earlier of the settlement or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Unit to which it corresponds. Participant shall be entitled to accrue payments equal to dividends declared, if any, on the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Unit to which such Dividend Equivalent relates, payable in cash and subject to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Unit to which it relates, at the time the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Unit is settled and delivered to Participant pursuant to Section 4; provided, however, if any dividends or distributions are paid in shares of Common Stock, the shares of Common Stock shall be deposited with the Company, shall be deemed to be part of the Dividend Equivalent, and shall be subject to the same vesting requirements, restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock Units to which they correspond. Dividend Equivalents shall not entitle Participant to any payments relating to dividends declared after the earlier to occur of the settlement or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units underlying such Dividend Equivalents.

Section 10. Construction. The Restricted Stock Unit Award granted hereunder is granted pursuant to the Plan and is in all respects subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

amount”(as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) and so that no portion of such amounts and benefits received by Participant shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or (b) paid in full, whichever produces the better net after-tax position to Participant (taking into account any applicable excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code and any other applicable taxes).

Schedule I
Performance Conditions

The number of Restricted Stock Units that vest pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Agreement and this Schedule I shall be determined based on performance during the 3-year period commencing _______________ and ending ________________ (the “Performance Period”) measured 1/2 based on Annualized Total Shareholder Return or Annualized TSR (as defined below) (the “TSR PBRSUs”) and 1/2 based on the Company’s ROCE (as defined below) (the “ROCE PBRSUs”) as set forth in Schedule 1(a) and Schedule 1(b), respectively. Such Vested RSUs, if any, will be settled in accordance with Section 4 of the Agreement.

Schedule 1(a) – TSR PBRSUs

A total of [insert number that is 1/2 of overall target Restricted Stock Units granted] Restricted Stock Units shall be allocated as TSR PBRSUs. From 0% to 200% of the TSR PBRSUs will be earned based on both (A) the Company’s absolute Annualized TSR performance and (B) the Company’s Annualized TSR performance relative to the Peer Companies, in each case over the Performance Period based on the following chart:


Relative Annualized TSR Performance	<=0% (a)	Absolute Annualized TSR Performance 0.1% - 25.0% (b)	>25% (c)
<25th Percentile	0.0%	25.0%	50.0%
>=25th Percentile	0.0%	50.0%	100.0%
>=50th Percentile	25.0%	100.0%	150.0%
>=75th Percentile	50.0%	125.0%	200.0%

At the end of the Performance Period, the Company’s absolute Annualized TSR for the Performance Period will be assessed to determine which columns of the chart above apply. In determining the relative Annualized TSR for the Performance Period, the Peer Companies and the Company shall be ranked together based on their respective Annualized TSRs for the Performance Period with the highest Annualized TSR being the total number of Peer Companies (for purposes of calculating the relative Annualized TSR, the number of Peer Companies shall include the Company) and the lowest Annualized TSR being number 1. Based on the Company’s relative Annualized TSR rank among the Peer Companies, expressed as a percentile ranking calculated by dividing (x) the Company’s number rank among the Peer Companies by (y) a number equal to the total number of Peer Companies (including the Company), the number of Restricted Stock Units that vest will be determined in accordance with the applicable row in the above chart.

If the Company’s percentile ranking is between any of these payout levels, the percentage multiple of the Restricted Stock Units will be interpolated based on the actual percentile ranking of the Company (rounded to the nearest whole percentile) in relation to the payout levels.


“Annualized Total Shareholder Return” or “Annualized TSR” shall be calculated as follows:

“Beginning Average Stock Price” means the applicable entity’s average volume weighted closing common stock price for the twenty trading days preceding the first day of the Performance Period.

“Ending Average Stock Price” is the applicable entity’s average volume weighted closing common stock price for the last twenty trading days of the Performance Period (or, in the event of a qualifying termination of Service or Change in Control under Section 2 or 3 of the Agreement prior to the end of the Performance Period, for the last ten trading days prior to the applicable measurement date specified under Section 2 or 3 of the Agreement).

“n” is the number of years in the Performance Period (subject to reduction in the event of a qualifying termination of Service or Change in Control under Section 2 or 3 of the Agreement prior to the end of the Performance Period).

“Reinvested Dividend Amount” means all dividends paid by the applicable entity in respect of the entity’s common stock during the Performance Period (shortened as appropriate, in the event

of a qualifying termination of Service or Change in Control under Section 2 or 3 of the Agreement prior to the end of the Performance Period).

Calculation of Annualized TSRs shall be adjusted to take into account any stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, or similar events that may affect the common stock prices of the Company or any of the Peer Companies.

The “Peer Companies” used for purposes of calculating relative Annualized TSR shall be the following companies:

[ ]

In the event that any of the Peer Companies ceases to be publicly traded during the applicable Performance Period, it shall be removed from the list of Peer Companies and shall be excluded completely when determining the Company’s relative Annualized TSR for the Performance Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any of the Peer Companies files for bankruptcy pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code during the Performance Period, it shall remain a Peer Company and be given an Annualized TSR of -100% when determining the Company’s relative Annualized TSR for the Performance Period.

Schedule 1(b) – ROCE PBRSUs

A total of [insert number that is 1/2 of overall target Restricted Stock Units granted] Restricted Stock Units shall be allocated as ROCE PBRSUs. From 0% to 200% of the ROCE PBRSUs will be earned based upon the Company’s average annual return on capital employed (“ROCE”) over the Performance Period, as reflected in the following chart:


	ROCE Performance	Payout %
Threshold	[ ]%	0%
Target	[ ]%	100%
Maximum	[ ]%	200%

The Company’s average annual ROCE shall be determined by averaging the ROCE for each individual calendar year during the Performance Period. If the Company’s average annual ROCE for the Performance Period is less than the threshold, no Restricted Stock Units will be earned. If the Company’s average annual ROCE for the Performance Period is between threshold and target or between target and maximum, the percentage of the Restricted Stock Units earned will be interpolated in relation to the payout levels. In no event will more than 200% of the Restricted Stock Units be earned.

ROCE shall be calculated for each fiscal year in the Performance Period as follows:

“Adjusted EBIT” means the Company’s earnings (loss) before interest and taxes and unrealized hedging gains or losses (including non-cash premiums paid or received).

“Average Capital Employed” means Beginning Capital Employed plus Ending Capital Employed divided by two.

“Beginning Capital Employed” means total assets less current liabilities (excluding the carrying value of short- and long-term unrealized derivative gains and losses) of the Company as of the last day prior to the first day of the applicable fiscal year, pro forma for the Juniper transaction.

“Ending Capital Employed” means total assets less current liabilities (excluding the carrying value of short- and long-term unrealized derivative gains and losses) of the Company, as of the last day of the applicable fiscal year.

In all events, Adjusted EBIT and Average Capital Employed shall be adjusted to give effect to cash payments made in connection with hedging transactions in the year incurred (regardless of the settlement date). Furthermore, Adjusted EBIT and Average Capital Employed may be adjusted at the discretion of the Committee to eliminate the effects of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations, any other unusual or infrequent items, and all items of gain, loss, income or expense determined to be unusual or infrequent in nature or related to the acquisition or disposal of assets, a segment of a business or formation of a joint venture or related to a change in accounting principles, all as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles or otherwise identified in the Company’s financial statements or notes to the financial statements.
