THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is dated as of August 1, 2014 by and among Pyramid Oil Company, a California corporation (“Pyramid”), Pyramid Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Pyramid (the “Merger Subsidiary”), and each of the persons listed on Schedule A hereto (each a “Stockholder” and collectively, the “Stockholders”).

WHEREAS, the Company and the Stockholders are parties to the Voting Agreement dated as of February 6, 2014 (the “Original Voting Agreement”); and

 

WHEREAS, Pyramid, the Merger Subsidiary and the Company concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement are entering into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended or supplemented, the “Merger Agreement”), providing for, among other things, the merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Subsidiary with and into the Company, and the Company as the surviving entity to the Merger upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings attributed thereto in the Merger Agreement); and

 

WHEREAS, as a condition to the willingness of Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary to enter into the Merger Agreement, and in order to induce Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Stockholders, Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary have agreed to amend and restate the Original Voting Agreement and enter into this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the execution and delivery by Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary of the Merger Agreement and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

Section 1.          Representations and Warranties of the Stockholders. Each of the Stockholders hereby represents and warrants to Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary, severally and not jointly, as follows:

 

(a)          Such Stockholder is the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) and unless otherwise indicated, the record owner of the shares of Company Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock (as may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the “Shares”) set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A to this Agreement and such Shares represent all of the shares of Company Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Stockholder as of the date hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Shares” shall include any shares of Company Common Stock issuable to such Stockholder upon exercise or conversion of any existing right, contract, option, or warrant to purchase, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, Company Common Stock (“Stockholder Rights”) that are currently exercisable or convertible or become exercisable or convertible and any other shares of Company Common Stock such Stockholder may acquire or beneficially own during the term of this Agreement.

This Agreement has been validly executed and delivered by such Stockholder and, assuming that this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the other parties hereto, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Stockholder, enforceable against such Stockholder in accordance with its terms (except insofar as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, or by principles governing the availability of equitable remedies).

(d)          The Shares and the certificates representing the Shares owned by such Stockholder are now and at all times during the term hereof will be held by such Stockholder, or by a nominee or custodian for the benefit of such Stockholder, free and clear of all pledges, liens, charges, claims, security interests, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements or any other encumbrances whatsoever, except for any such encumbrances or proxies arising hereunder or under applicable federal and state securities laws or under the agreements set forth on Schedule B hereto. Such Stockholder owns of record or beneficially no shares of Company Common Stock other than such Stockholder’s Shares.

 

(e)          As of the date hereof, neither such Stockholder, nor any of its respective properties or assets is subject to any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award that would prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

(f)          Such Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Pyramid is entering into, and causing Merger Subsidiary to enter into, the Merger Agreement in reliance upon such Stockholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary and, assuming that this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the other parties hereto, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary, enforceable against each of them in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (except insofar as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, or by principles governing the availability of equitable remedies).

(b)          The execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary does not, and the performance of this Agreement by each of Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary will not, (i) conflict with the articles or certificate of incorporation or bylaws or similar organizational documents of each of Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary as presently in effect, (ii) conflict with or violate any judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary or by which either is bound or affected, (iii) (A) result in any breach of or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, (B) give to any other person any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or (C) result in the creation of any pledge, claim, lien, charge, encumbrance or security interest of any kind or nature whatsoever upon any of the properties or assets of Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary under, any agreement, contract, indenture, note or instrument to which Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound or affected, except for such breaches, defaults or other occurrences that would not prevent or materially delay the performance by Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary of their obligations under this Agreement, or (iv) except for applicable requirements, if any, of the Exchange Act, the Securities Act, the NYSE or the HSR Act, require any filing by Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary with, or any permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any governmental or regulatory authority, except where the failure to make such filing or obtain such permit, authorization, consent or approval would not prevent or materially delay the performance by Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary of their obligations under this Agreement.

 

(c)          As of the date hereof, neither Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary, nor any of their respective properties or assets is subject to any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award that would prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

Section 3.          Covenants of the Stockholders. Each of the Stockholders, severally and not jointly, agrees as follows:

 

(a)          Such Stockholder shall not, except as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, and except for the pledge set forth in Schedule B, sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement (including any profit-sharing arrangement) or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge, assignment or other disposition of, the Shares (including any options or warrants to purchase Company Common Stock) to any person (any such action, a “Transfer”). For purposes of clarification, the term “Transfer” shall include, without limitation, any short sale (including any “short sale against the box”), pledge, transfer, and the establishment of any open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Transfers of Shares as bona fide gifts, (ii) distributions of Shares to partners, members, stockholders, subsidiaries, affiliates, affiliated partnerships or other affiliated entities of the undersigned, (iii) Transfers of Shares by will or intestacy, and (iv) Transfers of Shares to (A) members of the undersigned’s immediate family or (B) a trust, the beneficiaries of which are the undersigned and/or members of the undersigned’s immediate family, shall not be prohibited by this Agreement; provided that in the case of any such transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), each donee or distributee shall execute and deliver to Pyramid a valid and binding counterpart to this Agreement.

 

(b)          Such Stockholder shall not, except as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement (i) enter into any voting arrangement, whether by proxy, voting agreement, voting trust, power-of-attorney or otherwise, with respect to the Shares or (ii) take any other action that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of his, her or its obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby or make any representation or warranty of such Stockholder herein untrue or incorrect in any material respect.

 

(c)          At any meeting of the stockholders of the Company called to vote upon the Merger or in connection with any stockholder consent in respect of a vote on the Merger, the Merger Agreement or any other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement or at any adjournment thereof or in any other circumstances upon which a vote, consent or other approval (including by written consent) with respect to such matters is sought, each Stockholder shall vote (or cause to be voted), or shall consent, execute a consent or cause to be executed a consent in respect of, such Stockholder’s Shares in favor of the Merger, the adoption by the Company of the Merger Agreement and the approval of any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

(d)          Such Stockholder agrees to permit Pyramid and Merger Subsidiary to publish and disclose in the Proxy Statement and related filings under the securities laws such Stockholder’s identity and ownership of Shares and the nature of its commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement and any other information required by applicable law.

 

Section 4.          Grant of Irrevocable Proxy; Appointment of Proxy.

 

(a)          Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints, Michael D. Herman and any other individual who shall hereafter be designated by Pyramid, such Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of such Stockholder, to vote such Stockholder’s Shares, or grant a consent or approval in respect of such Shares, at any meeting of stockholders of the Company or at any adjournment thereof or in any other circumstances upon which their vote, consent or other approval is sought, in favor of the Merger, the adoption by the Company of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

 

(b)          Each Stockholder represents that any proxies heretofore given in respect of such Stockholder’s Shares are not irrevocable, and that any such proxies are hereby revoked.

 

(c)          Each Stockholder hereby affirms that the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 4 is given in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of such Stockholder under this Agreement. Such Stockholder hereby further affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and may under no circumstances be revoked, subject to Section 7 herein. Such Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all that such irrevocable proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. Such irrevocable proxy is executed and intended to be irrevocable in accordance with applicable law. Such irrevocable proxy shall be valid until the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7 herein.

 

Section 5.          Adjustments Upon Share Issuances, Changes in Capitalization. In the event of any change in Company Common Stock or in the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock by reason of a stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, exchange of shares or other similar event or transaction or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company (including, without limitation, the declaration or payment of an extraordinary dividend of cash, securities or other property), and consequently the number of Shares changes or is otherwise adjusted, this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to any additional shares of Company Common Stock, Stockholder Rights or other securities or rights of the Company issued to or acquired by each of the Stockholders.

 

Section 6.          Further Assurances. Each Stockholder will, from time to time, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further transfers, assignments, endorsements, consents and other instruments as Pyramid or Merger Subsidiary may reasonably request for the purpose of effectively carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to vest the power to vote such Stockholder’s Shares as contemplated by Section 3 herein.

 

Section 7.          Termination. This Agreement, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the Effective Time; (b) the date upon which the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.01 thereof, or (c) with respect to any Stockholder, upon its delivery of written notice of termination to Pyramid following any amendment to the Merger Agreement to decrease the Merger Consideration or otherwise alter the Merger Agreement in a manner adverse to the Stockholder in any material respect unless such amendment has been consented to by stockholder in writing prior to such amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

 

Section 8.          Action in Stockholder Capacity Only. No Stockholder executing this Agreement who is or becomes during the term hereof a director or officer of the Company makes any agreement or understanding herein in his or her capacity as such director or officer. Each Stockholder signs solely in his or her capacity as the record holder and beneficial owner of, or the trustee of a trust whose beneficiaries are the beneficial owners of, such Stockholder’s Shares and nothing herein shall limit or affect any actions or omissions taken by or fiduciary duties of, a Stockholder or any of its affiliates, in his or her capacity as an officer or director of the Company to the extent permitted by the Merger Agreement and applicable law.

(k)          Several Liability. Each party to this Agreement enters into this Agreement solely on its own behalf, each such party shall solely be severally liable for any breaches of this Agreement by such party and in no event shall any party be liable for breaches of this Agreement by any other party hereto.
