entirety to read in full as follows:
“Loan Papers” means this Agreement, the First Amendment, the Notes, the Facility
Guaranty, the Mortgages, the Security Agreement, the other Security Instruments,

Letter (excluding any term sheets attached thereto), and all other certificates,
agreements or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement by any
Credit Party (or any officer thereof), as the foregoing may be amended from time
to time. Hedge Agreements do not constitute Loan Papers.
2.3    New Section 14.21 of the Credit Agreement. Article XIV of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Section 14.21 immediately after
Section 14.20 therein to read in full as follows:
Section 14.21    Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFC. To the extent that
the Loan Papers provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge
Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support,
“QFC Credit Support” and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties
acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the
FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations
promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of
such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable
notwithstanding that the Loan Papers and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated
to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States
or any other state of the United States):
In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered
Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime,
the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support
(and any interest

Page 2

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

and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and
any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support)
from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer
would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC
and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in
property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the
United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered
Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime,
Default Rights under the Loan Papers that might otherwise apply to such
Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such
Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such
Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if
the Supported QFC and the Loan Papers were governed by the laws of the United
States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it
is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to
a Defaulting Bank shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with
respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
2.4    Replacement of Schedule 1 to the Credit Agreement. Schedule 1 to the
Credit Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety with Schedule 1 hereto and
Schedule 1 hereto shall be deemed to be attached as Schedule 1 to the Credit
Agreement. After giving effect to this First Amendment, the amendments to the
Credit Agreement set forth in Section 2 hereof and any Borrowings made on the
First Amendment Effective Date, (a) each Bank who holds Loans in an aggregate
amount less than its Applicable Percentage of all Loans shall advance new Loans
which shall be disbursed to the Administrative Agent and used to repay Loans
outstanding to each Bank who holds Loans in an aggregate amount greater than its
Applicable Percentage of all Loans, (b) each Bank’s participation in each Letter
of Credit, if any, shall be automatically adjusted to equal its Applicable
Percentage, (c) such other adjustments shall be made as the Administrative Agent
shall specify so that the Outstanding Revolving Credit applicable to each Bank
equals its Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit
of all of the Banks and (d) upon request by each applicable Bank, the Borrower
shall be required to make any break funding payments owing to such Bank that are
required under Section 3.3 of the Credit Agreement as a result of the Loans and
adjustments described in this Section 2.4.
Section 3.    Borrowing Base. In reliance on the representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements contained in this First Amendment, and subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5 hereof, the
Borrowing Base is hereby increased from $135,000,000 to $150,000,000 as of the
First Amendment Effective Date. The Borrowing Base shall remain at such level
until the next Determination Date or other adjustment to the Borrowing Base
thereafter, whichever occurs first pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks agree that the Determination
provided for in this Section 3 will constitute the Periodic Determination
scheduled for on or about November 1, 2019 for the purposes of Section 4.2 of
the Credit Agreement and shall not be construed or deemed to be a Special
Determination for purposes of Section 4.3 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 4.    Aggregate Elected Commitment Amount Increase. In reliance on the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this First
Amendment, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth
in Section 5 hereof, each Bank hereby agrees
