Kirkland & Ellis LLP Confidential Subject to FRE 408 Subject to Continuing Internal and Client Review MAGNUM HUNTER RESOURCES CORPORATION (“MHR”) TERM SHEET FOR REFINANCING OF AND INCREASE TO EXISTING FIRST LIEN FACILITY SUMMARY OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS (NOT A COMMITMENT) Overview: Set forth below is a summary of the pertinent terms and conditions for a refinancing of and increase to the loans and other credit accommodations outstanding (the “Refinancing”) under that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 22, 2014 by and among Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation (the “Borrower”), each of the lenders party thereto, Bank of Montreal as administrative agent for the lenders (“Existing Agent”) and the other parties from time to time party thereto (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing RBL Credit Agreement” and the facility thereunder, the “Existing RBL Facility”), which such refinancing shall be in the form of a single tranche of term loans to be borrowed on the Closing Date (as defined below) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $[60] million) (the “Refinancing Facility”). The New First Lien Lenders understand that time is of the essence, and that the Company would like the New First Lien Lenders to fund the Refinancing Facility on Friday October 30 or Monday November 2. To that end, the New First Lien Lenders would ask that the Company and its advisors cooperate as fast as reasonably practicable to provide any and all due diligence requests made by the advisors to the New First Lien Lenders. The New First Lien Lenders are anticipating, based on conversations with the Company, that the Refinancing Facility will provide the Company with liquidity for approximately 30-45 days. During this time, the Company and the New First Lien Lenders will continue to discuss various options and alternatives regarding the Company’s balance sheet. If an out-of-court alternative is ultimately agreed upon between the New Senior Notes Lenders, the New Second Lien Lenders and the Company, the New First Lien Lenders will work with the Company in good faith to document any necessary transaction, including, without limitation, a potential financing transaction to give the Company the necessary flexibility to pursue various alternatives. WEIL:\95508548\3\61033.0003

If an in-court alternative is ultimately agreed upon among the New Senior Notes Lenders and the New Second Lien Lenders (both as defined below) that has the Company’s support, it is the parties’ intention to work together in good faith to document any related DIP Financing, plan of reorganization term sheet (including the necessary commitments for exit financing), and a restructuring support agreement, prior to the filing for chapter 11. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall obligate the Company, the New Senior Notes Lenders, the New Second Lien Lenders, or any other stakeholder of the Company to reach agreement regarding the terms or conditions regarding an in-court or out-of-court alternative. Lenders: The Refinancing is to be provided by (a) certain holders (representing approximately 77%) of the Borrower’s 9.75% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Senior Notes”) (solely in their capacity as such, the “New Senior Notes Lenders”) and (b) certain holders of the loans outstanding (representing approximately 69%) under the Borrower’s Second Lien Credit Facility 1 (solely in their capacity as such, the “New Second Lien Lenders” and, collectively with the New Senior Notes Lenders, and solely in their capacity as such, the “New First Lien Lenders”) to the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries 2 (collectively, the “Company”). It is agreed and understood that the New Senior Notes Lenders and New Second Lien Lenders shall each participate in 50% of the total committed amount of the Refinancing Facility (and that such equal participation shall be both for the refinancing of the Existing RBL Facility as well as the additional approximately $[15] million in new lending). In light of timing, the ability to be a New First Lien Lender will not be offered to all holders of Senior Notes or all holders of the Second Lien Credit Facility. If the Company ultimately files for chapter 11, and DIP Financing is provided by the New First Lien Lenders, it is the New First Lien Lender’s intentions that the opportunity to be a DIP Lender (but not a New First Lien Lender) shall be offered to each holder of the Senior Notes on a pro rata basis based upon the holdings of such holder as a percentage of the 1 The “Second Lien Credit Facility” refers to that certain credit facility, dated as of October 22, 2014, between and among Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation, as borrower, each of the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent and collateral agent, in the principal amount of $340,000,000. There is approximately $337.4 million in principal amount outstanding under the Second Lien Credit Facility. 2 “Restricted Subsidiaries” has the meaning as defined in the Existing RBL Facility. 2 WEIL:\95508548\3\61033.0003

total outstanding principal amount of the Senior Notes, and each holder of the Second Lien Credit Facility on a pro rata basis based upon the holdings of such holder as a percentage of the total outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Credit Facility. If the Company and the New First Lien Lenders ultimately agree to a longer term out-of-court financing, it is the New First Lien Lenders’ intention that the opportunity to be a lender thereunder (but not a new First Lien Lender) shall be offered to each holder of the Senior Notes on a pro rata basis based upon the holdings of such institutions as a percentage of the total outstanding principal amount of the Senior Notes, and each holder of the Second Lien Credit Facility on a pro rata basis based upon the holdings of such holder as percentage of the total outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Credit Facility. [If any such DIP Financing or longer term out-of-court financing is provided by the New First Lien Lenders, it is agreed and understood that the New Senior Notes Lenders and the New Second Lien Lenders shall each participate in 50% of the total committed amount of DIP Financing.] Administrative Agent: The Administrative Agent for the Refinancing Facility will be the agent for the Existing RBL Facility.
