Re:
Waiver and Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We refer to that certain Loan Agreement dated as of June 29, 2012 (as heretofore
amended or otherwise modified, the “Loan Agreement”), by and among Miller Energy
Resources, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the “Borrower”), the financial
institutions party thereto from time to time as Lenders and Apollo Investment
Corporation, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the
“Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings given such terms in the Loan Agreement, as amended
hereby. References herein to any Section shall be to a Section of the Loan
Agreement, as amended hereby, unless otherwise specifically provided.

Borrower has informed the Administrative Agent that, as of the end of the
Borrower's third Fiscal Quarter (ended January 31, 2013): (i) Borrower was not
in compliance with the Maintenance Covenant contained in Section 7.17(c)
(Minimum Gross Production) of the Loan Agreement; and (ii) while final financial
data for the Borrower's third Fiscal Quarter are not yet available, Borrower
believes it is not in compliance with (A) Section 7.17(a) (Interest Coverage
Ratio) and (B) Section 7.26 (Consolidated G&A Expenses) for its third Fiscal
Quarter (the Defaults or Events of Default specified in this paragraph being the
“Specified Defaults”).

The Borrower has informed the Administrative Agent of its desire to borrow an
additional $5,000,000 pursuant to terms and conditions of Sections 2.2 and 3.2
of the Loan Agreement (the “Second Loan”). Borrower has further indicated that
it wishes to obtain a waiver of the Specified Defaults and to make certain
amendments to the Loan Agreement and the Approved Plan of Development.

Accordingly, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (or at least
the required percentage thereof) hereby agree as follows:

1.
Fees.

(a) Unused Fee. The parties understand that, after the borrowing of the Second
Loan, as contemplated herein, an additional $10 million will remain outstanding
of the initial $55 million Availability contemplated by the Loan Agreement (the
“Remaining Availability”). On June 29, 2013, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent an unused fee (the “Unused Fee”) in an amount equal to
$2,000,000.00 which, once paid, shall not be refundable under any circumstance;
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to pay the Unused Fee in the
event that the Borrower submits a request to borrow an amount equal to the
Remaining Availability at any time on or prior to June 29, 2013, in accordance
with the terms and conditions of Sections 2.2 and 3.2 of the Loan Agreement, it
being understood that if, following such a request from the Borrower, due to the
failure of a condition

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to such borrowing that the Administrative Agent or the Lenders elect not to
waive, such Loan shall not be made to the Borrower, then the Unused Fee shall
not be payable by the Borrower hereunder.

(b) Amendment Fee. On the date hereof, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders an amendment fee (the “Amendment Fee”) in
an amount equal to $200,000.00 which, once paid, shall not be refundable under
any circumstance.

2.
Waivers. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders (or at least the required percentage thereof) hereby agree to
waive (i) the Specified Defaults to the extent now existing and (ii) with
respect to the Second Loan, (A) the fifteen (15) Business Day prior notice of
any Loan requested and (B) the delivery of the Borrowing Request in the form of
Exhibit C to the Loan Agreement, each as otherwise required by Section 2.2(a) of
the Loan Agreement; provided that, in connection with the Second Loan, the
Borrower shall be required to deliver an irrevocable request in writing (the
“Second Loan Borrowing Request”) to the Administrative Agent in the form of
Exhibit A attached hereto. The foregoing waivers are contingent upon the
satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6 below and shall
not be construed as an amendment, waiver or modification of the Loan Agreement
or the other Loan Documents except as expressly provided herein. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve the right to exercise any rights
and remedies available to them in connection with any other present or future
Defaults or Events of Default under any provision of the Loan Agreement or any
provision of any other Loan Document. The description herein of the Specified
Defaults is based upon the information provided to the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders on or prior to the date hereof and shall not be deemed to exclude
the existence of any other Defaults or Events of Default. The failure of the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders to give notice to the Borrower of any other
Defaults or Events of Default is not intended to be nor shall be a waiver
thereof. Borrower hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders require and will require strict performance by the Borrower of
all of its obligations, agreements and covenants contained in the Loan Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and no inaction or action regarding any Default or
Event of Default is intended to be or shall be a waiver thereof.

3.
Understanding Concerning the Series B and Series C Offerings. The Borrower
hereby represents and warrants that it has reviewed the documents governing the
Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock and that no such
document contains any terms that would cause the Series B Preferred Stock or the
Series C Preferred Stock to constitute “Indebtedness” as such term is defined in
the Loan Agreement. In reliance upon the representation and warranty contained
in this Section 3, the parties hereto understand and agree that the Series B
Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock are not considered to be
Indebtedness for purposes of the definition of “Capital Covenant Compliance
Period” and Section 7.17 of the Loan Agreement, notwithstanding that they may be
classified as debt or temporary equity for accounting purposes.

4.
Amendments to the Loan Agreement and APOD. The following amendments to the Loan
Agreement and the Approved Plan of Development are hereby adopted

(a)
New Defined Terms. The following new defined terms are added to Section 1.1, in
the appropriate alphabetical order:

“Excess Preferred Equity Proceeds” means cash proceeds (less any and all costs
and expenses incurred by the Borrower in connection with the issuance of such
preferred Stock) received by the Borrower from the issuance of preferred Stock
in excess of $15,000,000 on or after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date;
provided that “Excess

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preferred Equity Proceeds” shall not include (i) any amounts deposited into the
Special Dividend Account as required by Section 6.17 hereof nor (ii) any
Excluded Equity Proceeds used pursuant to Section 7.24(a), (b), or (c) hereof.”

“Excess Consolidated G&A Expenses” shall mean Consolidated G&A Expenses in
excess of $3,000,000 in any Fiscal Quarter.
