Key Employee Retention Agreements
On September 18, 2014, Endeavour Energy UK Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Endeavour
International Corporation ("Endeavour" or the "Company") have entered Key Employee Retention Plan

employment with the Company in the event the Company is unable to come to terms with the various
capital providers on restructuring the Company's debt prior to the end of the cure period
(September 30, 2014). The Company entered into KERP Agreements with James J. Emme, Executive Vice
President North America; Catherine L. Stubbs, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer;
and Derek A. Neilson, Managing Director, U.K. Operations, effective September 19, 2014. Pursuant
to the KERP Agreements, if the executive continues his/her employment and is not terminated for
cause, the executive shall be entitled to receive the following payments:
•
an amount payable (the "Commitment Amount") on September 26, 2014, subject to clawback
should the executive resign, or his/her employment is terminated with cause prior to the
Transaction Date, or September 26, 2015; and
•
an amount payable (the "Retention Bonus") within 15 calendar days following the
Transaction Date,
"Transaction Date" means: the date of the earlier to occur of: (i) the closing date of any out of
court agreement for the structuring of Endeavour Operating Corporation's ("EOC") balance sheet,
(ii) the effective date of a confirmed plan of reorganization under chapter 11 of title 11 of the
United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") providing for the restructuring of EOC's balance sheet,
(iii) the closing date of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets or a majority of the
outstanding stock of EOC in one or more transactions under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or
pursuant to a confirmed chapter 11 plan, and (iv) the date of the entry of an order of a United
States Bankruptcy Court ordering the conversion of Endeavour's chapter 11 case to a case under
chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.
The Commitment Amounts and Retention Bonus were awarded as follows:

•
continuation of health benefits for a period of 18 months following the date of
termination, with the Company continuing to pay the same portion of the premiums as it
