 ARTICLE I 

Definitions and Accounting Matters 

Section 1.01 Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below:

 “Additional Lender Agreement” has the meaning assigned to such term in
Section 2.06(d)(iii). 
 “Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing for any Interest
Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/100 of 1%) equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by the Statutory Reserve Rate.

 “All-in Yield” shall mean, as to any Loans, the yield thereon payable to all Lenders (or Additional
Lenders, as applicable) providing such Loans in the primary syndication thereof, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, whether in the form of interest rate, margin, original issue discount, up-front fees, rate floors or otherwise;
provided, that original issue discount and up-front fees shall be equated to interest rate assuming a 4-year life to maturity (or, if less, the life of such Loans); and provided, further, that “All-in Yield”
shall not include arrangement, commitment, underwriting, structuring or similar fees paid to arrangers for such Loans and customary consent fees for an amendment paid generally to consenting lenders. 

“Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/100 of 1%) equal to
the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1.50% and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for a one month Interest Period on such day (or if such day is not a
Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1.0%; provided that, for purposes of this definition, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be the rate determined by the Administrative Agent by reference to the rate set
by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any successor or substitute administrator) applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market with a one month Interest Period (as set forth by any service selected by the Administrative Agent that has
been nominated by ICE Benchmark Administration, or any successor or substitute administrator, as an authorized information vendor for the purpose of displaying such rates, or any successor to or substitute for any such service, as determined by the
Administrative Agent from time to time for purposes of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such day (or the immediately preceding Business
Day if such day is not a day on which banks are open for dealings in dollar deposits in the London interbank market). Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate
shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively. 

“Annualized Consolidated EBITDA” means, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio and the
Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for each Rolling Period ending on or prior to December 31, 2015, an amount equal to the sum of: 

(a) Annualized Unadjusted Consolidated EBITDA; plus 

  
 3 








 (b) Material Project EBITDA Adjustments, if any, in accordance with the definition of the
term “Consolidated EBITDA”; plus

(b) with respect to the Rolling Period ending on September 30, 2015, the product of (x) Unadjusted Consolidated EBITDA for
such Rolling Period, multiplied by (y) 2; and 
 (c) with respect to the Rolling Period ending on
December 31, 2015, the product of (x) Unadjusted Consolidated EBITDA for such Rolling Period, multiplied by (y) 4/3.  

“Anti-Terrorism Law” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 7.26(a). 

“Applicable Margin” means, for any day, with respect to any ABR Loan or Eurodollar Loan, or with respect to the Commitment
Fee Rate, as the case may be, the rate per annum set forth in the grid below based upon the current Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio then in effect: 
  

															
	 Level
	 	 Consolidated Total

Leverage Ratio
	 	Eurodollar
Loans	 	 	ABR
Loans	 	 	Commitment
Fee Rate	 
	 I
	 	Less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00	 	 	2.25	% 	 	 	1.25	% 	 	 	0.50	% 
	 II
	 	Greater than 2.50 to 1.00 but less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00	 	 	2.50	% 	 	 	1.50	% 	 	 	0.50	% 
	 III
	 	Greater than 3.00 to 1.00 but less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00	 	 	2.75	% 	 	 	1.75	% 	 	 	0.50	% 
	 IV
	 	Greater than 3.50 to 1.00 but less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00	 	 	3.00	% 	 	 	2.00	% 	 	 	0.50	%

 Each change in the Applicable Margin resulting from a change in the Consolidated Total Leverage
Ratio shall become effective on and after the date on which financial statements or a compliance certificate, as applicable, are delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section 8.01(a), (b), or (d) and shall remain in
effect until the next change to be effected pursuant to this paragraph; provided, however, that if at any time the Borrower fails to deliver any financial statements or a compliance certificate required by Section 8.01(a),
(b), or (d), as applicable, then, for the period commencing on the date of such Default and ending on the date on which such Default is cured, the “Applicable Margin” means the rate per annum set forth on the grid when
the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio is at level “V” in the grid set forth above; provided, further, that for the period commencing on the Qualifying IPO Effective Date and until the September 2015 Delivery Date, the
“Applicable Margin” means the rate per annum set forth on the grid when the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio is at level “V” in the grid set forth above. In the event that any financial statement or compliance certificate
delivered pursuant to Section 8.01(a), (b), or (d) is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if
corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, and only in such case, then the Borrower shall
immediately (a) deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected compliance certificate for such Applicable Period, (b) determine the Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period based upon the corrected compliance certificate, and
(c) immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance

ARTICLE II 
 The Credits

 Section 2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make revolving
loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment or (b) the total
Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding Availability; provided that the Commitments shall remain undrawn on the Qualifying IPO Effective Date. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may
borrow, repay and reborrow the Loans. 

  
 39 








 Section 2.02 Loans and Borrowings. 

(a) Borrowings; Several Obligations. Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments are several and no Lender shall
be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 
 (b) Types of Loans. Subject to
Section 3.03, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign
branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(c) Minimum Amounts; Limitation on Number of Borrowings. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such
Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and
not less than $500,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of Availability, or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by
Section 2.07(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time, provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of six (6) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 

(d) Notes. The Loans made by each Lender, if requested by such Lender, shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Borrower
in substantially the form of Exhibit A, dated, in the case of (i) any Lender party hereto as of the date of this Agreement, as of the date of this Agreement, or (ii) any Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an
Assignment and Assumption or an Additional Lender Agreement, as of the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption or Additional Lender Agreement, as the case may be, payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment and
otherwise duly completed. In the event that any Lender’s Commitment increases or decreases for any reason (whether pursuant to Sections 2.06, 12.04(a) or 12.04(b) or otherwise), if requested by such Lender, the
Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered on the effective date of such increase or decrease, a new Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment after giving effect to such increase or decrease, and otherwise duly
completed. The date, amount, Type, interest rate and, if applicable, Interest Period of each Loan made by each Lender, and all payments made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books for its applicable Note,
and, prior to any transfer, may be endorsed by such Lender on a schedule attached to such Note or any continuation thereof or on any separate record maintained by such Lender. Failure to make any such notation or to attach a schedule shall not
affect any Lender’s or the Borrower’s rights or obligations in respect of such Loans or affect the validity of such transfer by any Lender of its Note. 

  
 40 








 Section 2.03 Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or
(b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, one (1) Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that no such notice shall be required for any deemed request of an ABR
Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.07(e). Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile or e-mail to the
Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in substantially the form of Exhibit B and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with
Section 2.02: 
 (i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; 

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the
definition of the term “Interest Period”; 
 (v) the current total Revolving Credit Exposures (without regard to the
requested Borrowing) and the pro forma total Revolving Credit Exposures (giving effect to the requested Borrowing);  
 (vi)
the current Maximum Availability, including supporting detail for the calculation thereof; and 
 (vii) the location and number of the
Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.05. 
 If no election as to
the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period
of one (1) month’s duration. Each Borrowing Request shall constitute a representation that (A) the amount of the requested Borrowing will not cause the total Revolving Credit Exposures to exceed Availability, and (B) each
condition precedent set forth in Section 6.02 has been satisfied with respect to such Borrowing. 
 Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing
Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 

  
 41 








 Section 2.04 Interest Elections. 

(a) Conversion and Continuance. Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the
case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.04. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall
be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 

(b) Interest Election Requests. To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.04, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective
date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile or e-mail to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in substantially the
form of Exhibit C and signed by the Borrower. 
 (c) Information in Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and
written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing
to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(ii) and (iii) shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective
date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting
Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the
Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. 
 (d) Notice to Lenders by the Administrative Agent. Promptly
following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

  
 42 








 (e) Effect of Failure to Deliver Timely Interest Election Request and Events of Default on
Interest Election. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein,
at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or
continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing (and any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective) and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar
Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 Section 2.05 Funding of
Borrowings. 
 (a) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by
wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans
available to the Borrower by promptly (and if such funds are timely received in accordance with the preceding sentence, on the same date that such funds are so received) crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower
maintained with the Administrative Agent and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.07(e) shall be
remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for its Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained
or will obtain the funds for its Loan in any particular place or manner. 
 (b) Funding by the Lenders; Presumption by the Administrative
Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.05(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such
event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by
such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower,
the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such
interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the
Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 43 








 Section 2.06 Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments. 

(a) Scheduled Termination of Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date;
provided that if the Qualifying IPO Effective Date does not occur on or prior to May 29, 2015, the Commitments shall automatically terminate on such date. If at any time the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero during the
Availability Period, then the Commitments shall terminate on the effective date of such termination or reduction. 
 (b) Optional
Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 
 (i) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments;
provided that (A) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000, and (B) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments to the extent that,
(1) after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.04(a)(ii), the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed Availability or (2) after giving effect to such termination or
reduction, the total Commitments would be less than $15,000,000. 
 (ii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election
to terminate or reduce the Commitments under Section 2.06(b)(i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly
following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be irrevocable. 

(c) Termination and Reductions of Commitments. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent and may not be
reinstated. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage. 

(d) Optional Increase in Commitments. 

(i) On and after the September 2015 Delivery Date, provided that the Qualifying IPO Effective Date has occurred and subject to the conditions
set forth in Section 2.06(d)(iv), upon irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may request an increase of the Commitments then in effect by increasing the Commitment of
a Lender or by causing a Person that at such time is not a Lender to become a Lender (each an “Additional Lender”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.06(d) (such additional Commitments, the
“Additional Commitments”). At the time the Borrower sends such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no
event be less than fifteen (15) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Administrative Agent). 

  
 44 








 (ii) Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within the relevant time period specified
in the notice referred to in Section 2.06(d)(i) whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested Additional Commitments.
Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. With
respect to each Lender that so elects to increase its Commitment, the Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 (a “Commitment Increase
Agreement”), and the Borrower shall, if requested by such Lender, deliver a new Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment after giving effect to such increase, and otherwise duly completed. 

(iii) In the event the Lenders do not, in the aggregate, elect to increase their Commitments in the full amount of the requested Additional
Commitments, the Borrower may cause one or more Additional Lenders to become a party to this Agreement, subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed). In each such instance, the Borrower and such approved Additional Lender(s) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 (an “Additional Lender
Agreement”), such Additional Lender(s) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, and the Borrower shall, if requested by such Additional Lender, deliver a Note payable to such Additional Lender in a
principal amount equal to its Commitment, and otherwise duly completed. 
 (iv) Any increase in the Commitments shall be subject to the
following additional conditions: 
 (A) such increase shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless the Administrative Agent otherwise
consents, and no such increase shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto the aggregate Commitments would exceed $400,000,000; 

(B) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately prior to the effective date of such increase or after giving effect to such
increase; 
 (C) no Lender’s Commitment may be increased without the consent of such Lender; 

(D) on the effective date of such increase, no Eurodollar Borrowings shall be outstanding or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding,
then the effective date of such increase shall be the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings unless the Borrower pays any compensation required by Section 5.02 (unless otherwise waived by all Lenders);

 (E) the Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 9.01 (calculated
in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) applicable to the Rolling Period ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter during which such increase becomes effective, as evidenced by a certificate executed by a Responsible
Officer attaching the supporting detail for such calculations; 

  
 45 








 (F) no Material Adverse Change has occurred; 

(G) The representations and warranties of each Loan Party set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and
correct in all material respects on and as of the effective date of such increase, except (i) to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, on and as of the date of such increase,
such representations and warranties shall continue to be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date and (ii) to the extent that any representation or warranty that is qualified by “material” or
“Material Adverse Effect” references therein, such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects on and as of the date of such increase; and 

(H) any Additional Commitments shall be on terms (other than pricing) and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the initial Commitments
on the Qualifying IPO Effective Date (the “Initial Commitments”); provided that if the All-in Yield of such Additional Commitments exceeds the All-in Yield in respect of such Initial Commitments by any amount (such
difference, the “Yield Differential”) then the Applicable Margin applicable to such Initial Commitments shall be increased such that after giving effect to such increase in the Applicable Margin, there is no Yield Differential; 

(v) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 2.06(d)(vi) from and after the effective date specified in
the Commitment Increase Agreement or the Additional Lender Agreement (or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings, unless the Borrower has paid the compensation,
if any, required by Section 5.02): (A) the amount of the Commitments shall be increased as set forth therein, and (B) in the case of an Additional Lender Agreement, any Additional Lender party thereto shall be a party to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, (unless all Lenders have increased their respective Commitments proportionately and there is no
Additional Lender) each increasing Lender and/or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase a pro rata portion of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in Letters of Credit) of each of the other Lenders (and such
Lenders hereby agree to sell and to take all such further action to effectuate such sale) such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and participation
interests) after giving effect to the increase in the Commitments. 
 (vi) Upon its receipt of (A) a duly completed Commitment
Increase Agreement or an Additional Lender Agreement, executed by the Borrower and the Lender or the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, (B) the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in
Section 2.06(d)(iii), if applicable, (C) if requested by the Administrative Agent, an amendment to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, which amendment shall only require the
signatures of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any increasing Lender or Additional Lender, as the 

  
 46 








 
case may be, (D) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of each Loan Party (1) certifying as to attached resolutions or written consent(s) of the board of directors, manager(s),
members(s), or other appropriate equivalent governing Person or body of each Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase in Commitments or Additional Commitments, as the case may be, and (2) in the case of the Borrower, certifying as to
the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.06(d)(iv) and in Section 6.02, and (E) customary legal opinions and other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent
shall accept such Commitment Increase Agreement or Additional Lender Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.04(c). No increase
in the Commitments shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 2.06(d)(vi). 

Section 2.07 Letters of Credit. 

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of dollar denominated Letters
of Credit for their own account or for the account of any of the other Loan Parties, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of
any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the

Administrative Agent (not less than three (3) Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice: 

(i) requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended; 

(ii) specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day); 

(iii) specifying the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.07(c));

(v) specifying the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or

Letter of Credit or the requested amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit) and the pro forma total Revolving Credit Exposures (giving effect to the requested Letter of Credit or the requested amendment, renewal or
extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit); and 

  
 47 








 (vii) the current Maximum Availability, including supporting detail for the calculation thereof.

 Each notice shall constitute a representation that after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, as applicable,
(x) the LC Exposure will not exceed the LC Commitment, (y) the total Revolving Credit Exposures will not exceed Availability, and (z) each condition precedent set forth in Section 6.02 has been satisfied with respect to
such Letter of Credit. 
 If requested by the Issuing Bank in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit, the Borrower also shall submit an
appropriately completed letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form as in effect from time to time, which application may require the inclusion of draft language for such Letter of Credit that is reasonably acceptable to
such Issuing Bank and may be required to be signed by a Responsible Officer. 
 The Issuing Bank will not be required to: (A) issue any Letter of
Credit if (1) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to the Issuing Bank or any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such
Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the
Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it, (2) the issuance of such Letter of
Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally, (3) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less
than $10,000, (4) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars, or (5) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or
(B) amend or extend any Letter of Credit if the Issuing Bank would not be required at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof or if the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed
amendment thereto. Any request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit that is made at any time that there is a Defaulting Lender shall be subject to Section 4.04(c). 

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one
(1) year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension, as applicable), and (ii) the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the
Maturity Date. Each Letter of Credit with a one (1) year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one (1) year periods; provided that no such period shall extend beyond the date described in clause (ii) of
this clause (c). 

  
 48 








 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of
Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter
of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in
Section 2.07(e), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.07(d) in
respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or the
reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall
reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than noon, Houston, Texas time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such
LC Disbursement prior to 9:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than noon, Houston, Texas time, on (i) the Business Day that the
Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 9:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not
received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the Borrower shall, subject to the conditions to Borrowing set forth herein, be deemed to have requested, and the Borrower does hereby request under such circumstances, that
such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make
such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of
such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and
Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt
by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.07(e), the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this
Section 2.07(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.07(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC
Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

  
 49 








 (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as
provided in Section 2.07(e) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack
of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or
invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit Agreement, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.07(f), constitute a legal
or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or
responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any
error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in
interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that neither the foregoing nor Section 12.03 shall be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to
the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing
Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised all requisite care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without
limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept
and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance
with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 
 (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt
thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of such demand for payment
and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of their obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then,
until the Borrower shall have reimbursed the Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement (either with its own funds or a Borrowing under Section 2.07(e)), the unpaid amount thereof 

  
 50 








 
shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then
applicable to ABR Loans. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.07(h) shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.07(e)
to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 
 (i) Replacement of the Issuing
Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such
replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.05(b). From and after the
effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein
to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of the Issuing Bank hereunder,
the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be
required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing
and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.07(j), or the Borrower is required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess
attributable to an LC Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i), then the Borrower shall deposit, in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of
the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to, in the case of an Event of Default, the LC Exposure, and in the case of a payment required by Section 3.04(b)(i), the amount of such excess as provided in Section 3.04(b)(i), as of
such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such Cash Collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice
of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Loan Party described in Section 10.01(h) or Section 10.01(i). At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day
following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender
(determined after giving effect to Section 4.04(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Fronting Exposure. 

(i) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby
grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for, in the case of the Borrower, its obligations with respect to Letters of
Credit and, in the case of the Defaulting Lender, its obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, in each case to be applied pursuant to clause (ii)  

  
 51 








 
below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as herein
provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Fronting Exposure, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount
sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). 
 (ii)
Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.07(j) or Section 4.04 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied, in the case of
the Defaulting Lender, to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation)
for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. Thereafter, Cash Collateral shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC
Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 

(iii) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Issuing Bank’s
Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.07(j) following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status
of the applicable Lender), or (B) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 4.04, the Person providing Cash Collateral and
the Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such
Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of Cash Collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, and the
Borrower is not otherwise required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to an LC Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i), then such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid)
shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 
 (iv) The
Borrower’s obligation to deposit Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.07(j) shall be absolute and unconditional, without regard to whether any beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit has attempted to draw down all or a
portion of such amount under the terms of a Letter of Credit, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be subject to any defense or be affected by a right of set-off, counterclaim or recoupment that the Borrower or any of
the other Loan Parties may now or hereafter have against any such beneficiary, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person for any reason whatsoever. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control,
including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such Cash Collateral. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such Cash Collateral, which investments shall be made at the 

  
 52 








 
option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such Cash Collateral shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments
shall constitute additional Cash Collateral. 
 (k) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and
the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing Bank shall be responsible to the Borrower for, and the Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies
against the Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the
law or any order of a jurisdiction where the Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association
for Finance and Trade –International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice. 

(l) Calculation of Maximum Stated Amount. For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or
the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not
such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination. 
 Section 2.08 Reliance on Notices. The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Borrowing Request, Interest Election Request, request for Letter of Credit or similar notice believed by the Administrative Agent to be genuine. The
Administrative Agent may assume that each Person executing and delivering any notice in accordance herewith was duly authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon for the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. 

ARTICLE III 
 Payments of
Principal and Interest; Prepayments; Fees 
 Section 3.01 Repayment of Loans. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises
to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (a) the amounts specified in Section 3.04(b) on the dates set forth therein and (b) if not so paid, the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the
Termination Date. 
 Section 3.02 Interest. 

(a) ABR Loans. The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin,
but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. 
 (b) Eurodollar Loans. The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear
interest at the sum of (i) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus (ii) the Applicable Margin, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. 

  
 53 








 (c) Post-Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) an Event of Default
specified in Sections 10.01(a), 10.01(b), 10.01(h) and/or 10.01(i) has occurred and is continuing, or (ii) the Required Lenders so elect (or direct the Administrative Agent to so elect) in connection with the
occurrence and continuance of any other Event of Default, then in each case all Loans outstanding shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) plus the rate otherwise applicable to
such Loans (including the Applicable Margin applicable with respect to such Loans), but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. 

(d) Interest Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and
on the Termination Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 3.02(c) shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than an optional prepayment of an
ABR Loan prior to the Termination Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end
of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 
 (e)
Interest Rate Computations. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, unless such computation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days
(or 366 days in a leap year), except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year),
and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and
such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and be binding upon the parties hereto. 
 Section 3.03 Alternate Rate
of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines
(which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest
Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or


  
 54 








 
continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made either as an
ABR Borrowing or at an alternate rate of interest determined by the Required Lenders as their cost of funds. 
 Section 3.04
Prepayments. 
 (a) Optional Prepayments. 

(i) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice
in accordance with Section 3.04(a)(ii). 
 (ii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by
facsimile or e-mail to the Administrative Agent of a written “Notice of Prepayment” in substantially the form of Exhibit D and signed by a Responsible Officer) of any prepayment hereunder (A) in the case of prepayment of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (B) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, one
(1) Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such
notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same
Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments pursuant to this Section 3.04(a) shall be accompanied by accrued interest
to the extent required by Section 3.02. 
 (b) Mandatory Prepayments. 

(i) If, at any time, the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds Availability, then the Borrower shall (A) prepay the Borrowings within
five (5) Business Days in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Borrowings as a result of an LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders an
amount equal to such excess to be held as Cash Collateral as provided in Section 2.07(j). 
 (ii) If any Loan Party receives
any cash proceeds from any Asset Sale made pursuant to Section 9.11(e), no later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Sale Proceeds therefrom shall be applied on such date as a mandatory
repayment in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.04(b)(vi). 
 (iii) If any Loan Party receives any cash proceeds on
or after the Effective Date from any Recovery Event, no later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Recovery Event shall be applied on such date as a mandatory repayment in
accordance with the requirements of Section 3.04(b)(vi). 

  
 55 








 (iv) If any Loan Party incurs any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted under
Section 9.02), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Debt Proceeds received in respect of such Indebtedness. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to permit any
Loan Party to incur Indebtedness other than as permitted under Section 9.02, and any such incurrence of Indebtedness shall be a violation of Section 9.02 and a breach of this Agreement. 

(v) [Intentionally Omitted]. 

(vi) Each prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to Section 3.04(b) shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid
Borrowings. Each prepayment (A) pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i) shall be applied to the Revolving Borrowings and the LC Exposure as described in Section 3.04(b)(i), and (B) pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(ii)
through (v) shall be applied to the unpaid principal amount of each Loan. Prepayments pursuant to Section 3.04(b) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 3.02. Each prepayment of
Borrowings pursuant to Section 3.04(b) shall be applied, first, ratably to any ABR Borrowings then outstanding, and, second, to any Eurodollar Borrowings then outstanding, and if more than one Eurodollar Borrowing is then outstanding, to
each such Eurodollar Borrowing in order of priority beginning with the Eurodollar Borrowing with the least number of days remaining in the Interest Period applicable thereto and ending with the Eurodollar Borrowing with the most number of days
remaining in the Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 (c) No Premium or Penalty. Prepayments permitted or required
under this Section 3.04 shall be without premium or penalty, except as required under Section 5.02. 

Section 3.05 Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall
accrue at the applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Qualifying IPO Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date. Accrued
commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Termination Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Qualifying IPO Effective Date. All commitment fees
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, unless such computation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and shall be payable for
the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For avoidance of doubt, the “unused amount” of the Commitment of any Lender shall be determined by subtracting such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Exposure on the date of determination from such Lender’s Commitment on such date of determination. 
 (b) Letter of Credit Fees.
The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the
interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC 

  
 56 








 
Disbursements) during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which
such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee and other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed between the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Participation fees accrued
through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third (3rd) Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Qualifying IPO Effective Date;
provided that all such fees shall be payable on the Termination Date and any such fees accruing after the Termination Date shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 3.05(b)
shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, unless such computation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(c) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees
payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 ARTICLE IV 

Payments; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs 

Section 4.01 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 

(a) Payments by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by the Borrower hereunder (whether of principal,
interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 or otherwise) prior to noon, Houston, Texas time, on the date when due, in immediately
available funds, without defense, deduction, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Fees, once paid, shall be fully earned and shall not be refundable under any circumstances. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of
the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices specified in
Section 12.01, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and
Section 12.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt
thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for
the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. 
 (b) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any
time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment
of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the 

  
 57 








 
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then
due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 

(c) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and other such obligations greater than its pro rata
share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations
of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their
respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that (A) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase
price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (B) the provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall not be construed to apply to (1) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the
express terms of this Agreement or (2) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant. The Borrower
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower and any other Loan Party rights of
setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower and any other Loan Party in the amount of such participation. 

Section 4.02 Payments by the Borrower; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not
in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent
in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation. 
 Section 4.03 Certain Deductions by the Administrative
Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(a), Section 2.07(d), Section 2.07(e), Section 4.02 or otherwise hereunder, then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the


  
 58 








 
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a
segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender hereunder, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its
discretion. 
 Section 4.04 Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 
 (i)
Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of the term “Required Lenders”.

 (ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent
for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article X or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.08 shall be
applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment of any
amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.07(j); fourth, as the
Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth,
if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under
this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with
Section 2.07(j); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Bank against such Defaulting
Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of
competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such
Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all
Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations


  
 59 








 
in Letters of Credit are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 4.04(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other
amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.04(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such
Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (iii) Certain Fees. 

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 3.05(a) for any period during which
that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees in respect of Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 3.05(b) for any
period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.07(j). 

(C) With respect to any fee in respect of Letters of Credit not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clauses
(A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s
participation in Letters of Credit that has been reallocated to such other Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Bank, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent
allocable to the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. 

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in
Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent
that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have
represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) to exceed such Lender’s
Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Lender (other than any
Defaulting Lender) as a result of such Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 
 (v) Cash Collateral. If the
reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under applicable law, Cash Collateralize the Issuing
Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.07(j). 

  
 60 








 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing
Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may
include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be
necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to Section 4.04(a)(iv), whereupon such Lender
will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,
further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that
Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 (c) New Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the
Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto. 

ARTICLE V 
 Increased
Costs; Break Funding Payments; Taxes; Illegality 
 Section 5.01 Increased Costs. 

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets
of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; 

(ii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Bank to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any
participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 5.03
and the imposition of, or any change in the rate or required calculation of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank); or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement
or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the
cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by 

  
 61 








 
such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b) Capital Adequacy or Liquidity Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
adequacy or liquidity requirements and affecting such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or
participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity),
then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding
company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting
forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 5.01(a) or (b) and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Effect of Failure or Delay in Requesting Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender
or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

Section 5.02 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on
the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the
failure to borrow, convert, or continue any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the


  
 62 








 
Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.04(b), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each affected Lender
for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would
have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period
therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the
interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. 

A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall be
delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

Section 5.03 Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor under any Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or any Guarantor shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.03(a)), the
Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or such Guarantor shall make such deductions and (iii) the
Borrower or such Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.03(a), the Borrower shall timely
pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Borrower.
The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed
or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.03) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or
with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability under this
Section 5.03 delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. 

  
 63 








 (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes by the Borrower or a Guarantor to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the
return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e)
Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the
extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to
comply with the provisions of Section 12.04(d)(iii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent
in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the
amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to
such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). 

(f) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Governmental Requirements or reasonably requested by the
Withholding Agent as will enable the Withholding Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the
completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.03(f)(ii)(A) and Section 5.03(f)(ii)(B) and Section 5.03(g) below) shall not be required if in the
Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a “United States person” as defined in
section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, 
 (A) any Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code
shall deliver to the Withholding Agent on or prior to the date on 

  
 64 








 
which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that
such Lender is exempt from United States federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally
entitled to do so, deliver to the Withholding Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon
the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) in the case of a Foreign
Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of,
United States federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction
of, United States federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the
Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the
Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of
IRS Form W-8BEN; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form
W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial
owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; and 
 (iii) any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Withholding Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this


  
 65 








 
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Governmental Requirements as a basis for
claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Governmental Requirements to permit the Withholding Agent to determine the
withholding or deduction required to be made. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered under this
Section 5.03 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Withholding Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(g) FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times
prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by Governmental Requirements (including as prescribed by section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation
reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the
amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.03(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it
has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.03, it shall pay to the
Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 5.03 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such
refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);
provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This
Section 5.03 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any
other Person. 
 (i) The agreements in this Section 5.03 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

  
 66 








 Section 5.04 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.01, or requires the
Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.03, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding
or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce
amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.03, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such
Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is required to pay
any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.03, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and
effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.04(a)),
all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that
(i) the Borrower shall have paid, or shall have caused such assignee to have paid, to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 12.04(b)(iv), (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount
equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under
Section 5.02), from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 5.01 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter, (iv) such assignment does not conflict
with applicable law, and (iv) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver, or consent. A Lender shall not be required to
make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and, delegation if such Lender (or its Affiliate) is a Secured
Hedging Agreement Counterparty with any outstanding Secured Hedging Agreements, unless on or prior thereto, all such Secured Hedging Agreements have been terminated or novated to another Person and such Lender (or its Affiliate) shall have received
payment of all amounts, if any payable to it in connection with such termination or novation. 

  
 67 








 Section 5.05 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in
the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its applicable lending office to honor its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans either generally or having a particular Interest Period hereunder, then (a) such Lender shall
promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof and such Lender’s obligation to make such Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended (the “Affected Loans”) until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain
such Eurodollar Loans and (b) all Affected Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender shall be made instead as ABR Loans (and, if such Lender so requests by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, all Affected Loans of such
Lender then outstanding shall be automatically converted into ABR Loans on the date specified by such Lender in such notice) and, to the extent that Affected Loans are so made as (or converted into) ABR Loans, all payments of principal which would
otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be applied instead to its ABR Loans.

Representations and Warranties 

The Borrower represents and warrants, and each Guarantor by its execution of the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement represents and warrants, to
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders that:

legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority, and has all material governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals
necessary, to own its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where failure to have such power, authority,

Section 7.02 Authority; Enforceability. The Transactions are within each Loan Party’s corporate, limited liability company,
or partnership powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company, or partnership action and, if required, equity owner action (including, without limitation, any action required to be taken by any class of
directors of the Borrower or any other Person, whether interested or disinterested, in order to ensure the due authorization of the Transactions). Each Loan Document to which a Loan Party 

  
 72 








 
is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, as applicable, enforceable in accordance with its
terms, subject to applicable Debtor Relief Laws or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

Section 7.03 Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing
with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any other third Person (including shareholders or any class of directors, whether interested or disinterested, of the Borrower or any other Person), nor is any such consent, approval,
registration, filing or other action necessary for the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect other
than (i) the recording and filing of the Security Instruments as required by this Agreement and (ii) those third party approvals or consents which, if not made or obtained, would not cause a Default hereunder, could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or do not have an adverse effect on the enforceability of the Loan Documents, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or any Organization Documents of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party, or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture or other agreement regarding Indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or give rise to a right thereunder to require
any payment to be made by the Borrower or such Loan Party, (d) will not violate or result in a default under any Material Contract, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower or such Loan Party, and
(e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Property of the Borrower or any other Loan Party (other than the Liens created by the Loan Documents).

 73

liabilities, liabilities for past due taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments, or contingent liabilities or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments. 

(d) The projections regarding the financial performance of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries furnished to the Lenders have been

other Loan Party’s knowledge, there are no conditions or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to result in the receipt of notice regarding such exposure; and 

(h) the Borrower has made available, or has caused the other Loan Parties to make available, to the Administrative Agent complete and correct
copies of all environmental site assessment reports, investigations, studies, analyses, and correspondence on environmental matters (including matters relating to any alleged non-compliance with or liability under Environmental Laws) relating to the

of Way establish or will establish a contiguous and continuous right of way for such Gathering Systems and grant or will grant the Borrower or any other applicable Loan Party (or their predecessors in interest) the right to construct, operate, and
maintain such Gathering Systems in, over, under, or across the land covered thereby in accordance with applicable law and customary industry practices; provided, however, (i) some of the Rights of Way granted to the Loan Parties (or their
predecessors in interest) by private parties and Governmental Authorities are revocable at the right of the applicable grantor, (ii) some of the Rights of Way cross properties that are subject to Liens in favor of third parties that have not

could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All rental and other payments due under any Rights of Way or Deeds by any Loan Party (and their predecessors in interest) have been duly paid in accordance with the terms thereof,
except to the extent that a failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 Section 8.13 Title Information; Phase I Site Assessments. 

(a) If the Borrower or any other Loan Party acquires any new real Properties for greater than $15,000,000, individually (it being understood
that any related Midstream Properties acquired in an acquisition or a series of acquisitions shall collectively be treated as an individual Property for purposes hereof), or greater than $20,000,000 in the aggregate for all such acquisitions in any
twelve month period, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such other Loan Party to, promptly provide reasonable title information regarding such new real Properties to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent shall have such title
information for the real Properties of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties that is satisfactory to it in all respects in the reasonable exercise of its credit judgment as a senior secured lender. The Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days
of notice from the Administrative Agent objecting to title defects or exceptions that exist with respect to such additional Properties (or such later date as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), either (i) cure any such
title defects or exceptions (including defects or exceptions as to priority) that are not permitted by Section 9.03 raised by such information, or (ii) deliver title information in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative

Section 8.14 Additional Collateral; Additional Guarantors.

other Security Instruments (in proper form for filing, registration or recordation, as applicable) as are requested by the Administrative Agent, and take such actions necessary or advisable to grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the

 (b) The Borrower will at all times cause the other material tangible and intangible Property,
other than Excluded Property, of the Borrower and each other Loan Party, including any real Property and Equity Interests in any Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Restricted Joint Venture, in each case to be subject to a Lien pursuant to the Security
Instruments; provided, however, that, with respect to any real Property, if the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that the costs, financial and otherwise, of obtaining or maintaining a Lien, perfecting a Lien,
and/or complying with all Governmental Requirements with respect to such a Lien outweigh the benefit to the Secured Parties of the security afforded thereby, the Administrative Agent may elect not to be granted a Lien on such real Property. Without
limiting the foregoing, within thirty (30) days after (or such later date as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) the end of each calendar quarter during which any Loan Party receives copies of any recorded Deeds and/or

required by Section 8.07(b) or (B) such Building or Manufactured (Mobile) Home is not located in a Special Flood Hazard Area, and (iii) subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, execute and deliver Mortgages
on such Deeds and/or Rights of Way in favor of the Administrative Agent.

principal Financial Officer of the General Partner, the Borrower, such other Loan Party or the ERISA Affiliate, as the case may be, specifying the nature thereof, what action such other Loan Party or the ERISA Affiliate is taking or proposes to take
with respect thereto, and, when known, any action taken or proposed by the Internal Revenue Service or the Department of Labor with respect thereto. 

Section 8.16 Maintenance of Gathering Systems and Processing Plants. The Borrower will, and will cause each other Loan Party to,
(a) maintain or cause the maintenance of their respective interests and rights in the Rights of Way for their Gathering Systems and in their Processing Plants, to the extent the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) subject to Permitted Liens, maintain the Gathering Systems within the confines of the Rights of Way without material encroachment upon any adjoining property and maintain the
Processing Plants within the boundaries of the Deeds and without material encroachment upon any adjoining property if failure to do so could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) maintain such rights of ingress and
egress necessary to permit the Loan Parties to inspect, operate, repair, and maintain the Midstream Properties, including the Gathering Systems and the Processing Plants, to the extent that failure to maintain such rights, individually or in the

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and provided that the Loan Parties may hire third parties to perform these functions, and (d) maintain all material
agreements, licenses, permits, and other rights required for any of the foregoing described in clauses (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 8.16 in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, timely make
any payments due thereunder, and prevent any default thereunder which could result in a termination or loss thereof, except any such failure to pay or default that could not reasonably, individually or in the aggregate, be expected to cause a
Material Adverse Effect.

 (a) Within 30 days after (or such later date as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) the acquisition or
formation of a new Subsidiary, the Borrower may designate such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or a Restricted Joint Venture by written notification thereof to the Administrative Agent, provided that each of the following conditions

may be, and shall be deemed a Loan Party for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without any amendment, modification or other supplement to any of the foregoing, except as contemplated by Section 8.14,
provided that (x) the representations and warranties of the applicable Loan Parties contained in the applicable Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects at the time of and after giving effect to such re-designation,

Restricted Joint Ventures. The Borrower: 
 (a) will cause the management, business and affairs of each of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries to be conducted in such a manner (including, without limitation, by keeping separate books of account) so that each Unrestricted Subsidiary and each Restricted Joint Venture will be treated as an entity separate and distinct from the

without rendering its obligations under this Section, or otherwise under this Agreement or any Loan Document, as it relates to such other Loan Parties, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not
for any greater amount). The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until all Secured Obligations are paid in full to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all other Secured Parties, and all of the
Lenders’ Commitments are terminated. The Borrower intends that this Section constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all

2014, December 31, 2014, March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively, the Borrower shall not permit the Consolidated Debt-to-Capital Ratio of the Borrower as of such date to exceed 0.35 to 1.00. 

(b) Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal quarter
ending June 30, 2015, the Borrower shall not permit the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio as of such date to be less than 3.00 to 1.00. 

(c) Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio. As of the last day of any fiscal quarter of the Borrower commencing with the fiscal quarter
ending September 30, 2015, the Borrower shall not permit the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of such date to exceed 4.50 to 1.00; provided that, at the irrevocable written election of the Borrower upon the closing of any Material
Acquisition (by delivering written notice of such election to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the closing date of such Material Acquisition), the maximum Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio permitted under this clause (c) shall be
increased to 5.25 to 1.00 for the Rolling Period ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter in which such Material Acquisition occurs and for each of the Rolling Periods ending on the last day of the next two immediately following fiscal quarters;
provided further that the Borrower may not make more than one such election in any 12 month period. 
 (d) Right to Cure Financial
Covenant Defaults. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.01 or in Article X, in the event that the Borrower fails to comply with the requirements of clause (b) or clause
(c) of this Section 9.01 (such event a “Financial Covenant Default”), then the Borrower shall have the right to cure such Financial Covenant Default (such right, the “Equity Cure Right”)
subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 (i) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice of
its intent to exercise the Equity Cure Right (the “Equity Cure Notice”) no later than three (3) Business Days after the date on which financial statements and a compliance certificate as of and for the period ending on the last
day (the “Test Date”) of the Rolling Period in respect of which such Financial Covenant Default has occurred are delivered in accordance with Sections 8.01(a), (b) or (d), as the case may be (the
“Equity Cure Delivery Date”). The Equity Cure Notice shall set forth the calculation of the Equity Cure Amount (as defined below) and be certified by a Financial Officer. 

(ii) No later than five (5) Business Days after the Equity Cure Delivery Date (the “Equity Cure Contribution Date”),
the Borrower shall cause the Sponsor to purchase Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) or make capital contributions to the Borrower (such purchase or capital contribution, as applicable, the “Equity Cure
Contribution”) resulting in the Borrower receiving net cash proceeds in an aggregate amount not less than the greater of (A) the minimum amount which, if applied to reduce Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness as of the Test Date,
would result in the Borrower being in pro forma compliance 

  
 97 








 
with clause (c) of this Section 9.01 as of the Test Date, and (B) the minimum amount which, if added to Consolidated EBITDA, would result in the Borrower being in
pro forma compliance with clause (b) of this Section 9.01 as of the Test Date (such amount, which shall be calculated in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the “Equity Cure
Amount”). 
 (iii) The Equity Cure Right may only be exercised for a total of three (3) times; provided further that in each
four-fiscal quarter period there shall be a period of at least two fiscal quarters in which no Equity Cure Contribution is made. 
 (iv) In
the event the Borrower timely exercises the Equity Cure Right in accordance with clause (i) above, from the date on which financial statements and a compliance certificate as of and for the period ending on the Test Date are delivered in
accordance with Section 8.01(a), (b) or (d), as applicable, until the earliest to occur of (A) the Equity Cure Contribution Date or (B) the date on which the Administrative Agent is notified by the Borrower
that the Equity Cure Contribution will not be consummated, the Financial Covenant Default shall constitute a Default (but not an Event of Default) for all purposes under this Agreement, but neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall
impose default interest, accelerate the Secured Obligations, terminate the Commitments or exercise any enforcement remedy against any Loan Party or any of their respective Property, in each case solely with respect to such Financial Covenant
Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.01(d)(iv), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to exercise any of their respective rights and remedies under this Agreement and under applicable
law to the extent that any other Event of Default (other than the Financial Covenant Default) has occurred and is continuing. 
 (v) Upon
the timely consummation of the Equity Cure Contribution, the receipt by the Borrower of the Equity Cure Amount in cash, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of clause (b) or (c) of this
Section 9.01, as the case may be, as of the Test Date with the same effect as though there was no failure to comply therewith as of the Test Date, and the Financial Covenant Default shall be automatically deemed cured and waived for all
purposes of this Agreement. 
 (vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Equity Cure Amount shall be
retroactively credited to Consolidated EBITDA, Annualized Consolidated EBITDA, or Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness for the purposes of determining compliance with any financial covenant or test, except with respect to the applicable Financial
Covenant Default.

 98 








 
the difference of (i) $25,000,000 minus (ii) the aggregate amount of all payment obligations under all other leases and lease agreements (including operating leases) due
within twelve months after such time; and provided further that such Indebtedness is not incurred for the purpose of expanding, purchasing or constructing a new Processing Plant or Gathering System (but, for the avoidance of doubt, such

improvements thereto, insurance thereon and proceeds of the foregoing. 
 Section 9.04 Restricted Payments. The Borrower will

notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Bank. 
 (c) The Administrative
Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate,
report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the

(d) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or
enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Industry Competitors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (i) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or
Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is an Industry Competitor, or (ii) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information in connection

 Section 11.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the
satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or
the Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by it,
and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

Section 11.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions 

  
 114 








 
of this Article XI shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

Section 11.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the
Lenders, the Issuing Bank, and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a bank as a successor. If no such successor shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and
the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment,
then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in
the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a
successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Bank directly, until
such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 11.06. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed
to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph); provided that the retiring Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any all assignments, amendments, instruments
or any other documents necessary to assign the Administrative Agent’s security interests under the Security Documents to the successor Administrative Agent. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same
as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article XI
and Section 12.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the
retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Section 11.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other
Lenders. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of
their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to 

  
 115 








 
time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 Section 11.08 No Other Duties, etc. The Arrangers and other Agents (other the
Administrative Agent) shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents other than any such other Agents’ duties, responsibilities and liabilities in its capacity as Lender hereunder.

such actions at the request of the Borrower: 
 (i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under
any Loan Document (A) after the termination of the Commitments, the payment in full of all principal and interest on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents (other than contingent
indemnification or contingent reimbursement obligations not yet known) to any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender under any Loan Document, the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit for which other
arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank have been made), the reimbursement of all LC Disbursements owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents, and the payment in full or cash
collateralization (or other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) with respect to any other Secured Obligations that are due and owing or that would become due and owing as a result of the termination of this Agreement,
(B) that is, or is to be, sold, released or otherwise disposed of as permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, or (C) if any Mortgaged Property has a Building or Manufactured (Mobile) Home situated on such Mortgaged Property
and the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, determines that the costs, financial and otherwise, of obtaining or maintaining a Lien in such Building or Manufactured (Mobile) Home or complying with all Governmental Requirements with respect
to such Lien outweigh the benefit to the Secured Parties of the security afforded thereby, and (D) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or, if approval, authorization or ratification by all Lenders is required
under the first proviso in Section 12.02(b), then by all Lenders); 
 (ii) to subordinate (or release) any Lien on any Property
granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to any Lien on such Property that is permitted by Section 9.03(c);

release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.09. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in any
of the Loan Documents to the contrary, no Person other than the Administrative Agent has any right to realize upon any of the Collateral individually, to enforce any Liens on Collateral, or to enforce the Guaranty and Pledge Agreement, and all
powers, rights and remedies under the Security Instruments may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Persons secured or otherwise benefitted thereby.

 Notices sent by hand or

 119 








 (c) Change of Address, Etc. Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number
for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. 
 (d) Platform. 

(i) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Communications (as defined
below) available to the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on the Platform (as defined below). The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Industry Competitor List shall be deemed suitable for posting and may be

electronic transmission system. 
 (ii) The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent
Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any
warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall
the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower or the other Loan Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including,
without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s , any other Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s

Section 12.02 Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course
of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, power or privilege, under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege under any of the Loan Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any
departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 12.02(b), and then 

  
 120 








 
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of
a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor any Security Instrument nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified
except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall
(i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (except for the waiver of default interest), or
reduce any fees payable hereunder, or reduce any other Secured Obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment (except
with respect to mandatory prepayments) of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or any other Secured Obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or reduce the amount
of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone or extend the Termination Date or Maturity Date without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, (iv) except as expressly permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents, release
any Guarantor or release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), (v) amend, modify, or waive any provisions of Section 4.01(b),
Section 4.01(c), or Section 10.02(c) in any manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, or (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section 12.02(b) or the definitions
of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or make any determination or grant any consent
hereunder or any other Loan Documents, without the written consent of each affected Lender other than any Defaulting Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent, any other Agent, or the Issuing Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such other Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (x) any supplement to Schedule 7.14 (Subsidiaries) shall be effective simply by delivering to the Administrative Agent a supplemental schedule clearly marked as such and, upon receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly
deliver a copy thereof to the Lenders, (y) the Borrower (or other applicable Loan Party) and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of the Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any
ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by Lenders constituting the Required Lenders within 5 Business Days after the Administrative
Agent delivers written notice thereof to the Lenders, and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or other applicable Loan Party) may enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or enter
into any agreement or instrument to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Mortgaged Property or Property to become Mortgaged Property to secure the Secured Obligations for the benefit
of the Lenders or as required by any Governmental Requirement to give effect to, protect or otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under the Loan Documents without the consent of any Lender. 

  
 121 








 Section 12.03 Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall (and are jointly and severally obligated to) pay (i) all

or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including, without limitation, all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

BANK AND EACH LENDER, AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING PERSONS (EACH SUCH PERSON BEING CALLED AN “INDEMNITEE”) AGAINST, AND DEFEND AND HOLD EACH INDEMNITEE HARMLESS FROM, ANY AND ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES,
LIABILITIES AND RELATED EXPENSES, INCLUDING THE FEES, CHARGES AND DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY COUNSEL FOR ANY INDEMNITEE, INCURRED BY ANY INDEMNITEE OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE BY A THIRD PARTY OR BY THE BORROWER OR ANY SUBSIDIARY ARISING OUT OF, IN
CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF (i) THE EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES HERETO OR THE PARTIES TO ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, (ii) THE FAILURE OF THE BORROWER OR ANY SUBSIDIARY TO COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, INCLUDING

(B) in any case not described in Section 12.04(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes
Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption
with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if a “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of such Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless the Administrative Agent
otherwise consents and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan and the Commitment assigned. 
 (iii) Required
Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 12.04(b)(i)(B) and, in addition: 

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such
assignment unless the Borrower shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and 

  
 125 








 (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for assignments in respect of a
Commitment or Revolving Credit Exposure if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and 

(C) the consent of the Issuing Bank shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in LC
Exposure (whether or not then outstanding). 
 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(v) No Assignment to Sponsor or Loan Parties. No such assignment shall be made to the Sponsor, the Borrower or any of their respective
Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 
 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person. 

(vii) Pro Rata Assignment of Related Facilities. Any such assignment (other than any assignment by a Lender to one or more of its
Affiliates) shall be accompanied by corresponding assignments by such Lender and/or one or more of its Affiliates, as the case may be, of its or their respective rights and obligations under the PennTex JV Credit Facility and the PennTex Development
Credit Facility in amounts determined for each such credit facility on a pro rata basis based on such Lender’s and its Affiliates’ aggregate Commitments and Loans under this Agreement before giving effect to such assignment. 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.04(c), from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and
Section 12.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section 12.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.04(d). 

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one
of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each
Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the 

  
 126 








 
“Register”). Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s
completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 12.04(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by
Section 12.04(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been
recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 12.04(c). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in
the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In connection with any changes to the Register, if necessary, the Administrative Agent will reflect the revisions on Annex I and forward a copy of such revised
Annex I to the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and each Lender. 
 (d) Participations. 

(i) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, sell
participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 (ii) Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide
that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the proviso to Section 12.02 that affects such Participant. In addition such agreement must provide that the
Participant be bound by the provisions of Section 12.03 and Section 12.11. Subject to Section 12.04(e), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01,
Section 5.02 and Section 5.03 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.01(c) as though it were a Lender. 

(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a
register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the


  
 127 








 
“Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any
Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such
Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent
(in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (e) Limitations upon
Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.01 or Section 5.03 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation
sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of
Section 5.03 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 5.03 as though it were a Lender and does in fact
so comply therewith. 
 (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto or require any such pledgee or holder of a security interest to comply with
Section 12.04 prior to the enforcement of such pledge or assignment. 
 (g) Industry Competitors. 

(i) No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was an Industry Competitor as of the date (the “Trade
Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment in writing in
its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered an Industry Competitor for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes an Industry
Competitor after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of the term “Industry Competitor”), (A) such assignee
shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (B) the execution by the Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered an Industry
Competitor. Any assignment in violation of this clause (g)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (g) shall apply. 

  
 128 








 (ii) If any assignment or participation is made to any Industry Competitor without the
Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes an Industry Competitor after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable
Industry Competitor and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Commitment of such Industry Competitor and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Industry Competitor in connection with such Commitment, (B) require such
Industry Competitor to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 12.04), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons that meet the
requirements to be an assignee under Section 12.04(b)(iii) and is not an Industry Competitor. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Industry Competitors that become Lenders or Participants (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel
to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B)(x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each such Industry Competitor will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Industry
Competitors consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws (each a “Debtor Plan”), each Industry Competitor party hereto hereby agrees
(1) not to vote on such Debtor Plan, (2) if such Industry Competitor does vote on such Debtor Plan notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be
“designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such
Debtor Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other
applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2). 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent shall have the
right, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Industry Competitors provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “Industry Competitor
List”) on the Platform, including that portion of the Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the Industry Competitor List to each Lender requesting the same. 

(h) Restrictions if Registration Required. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 12.04, no transfer or
assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower and the other Guarantors to file a registration statement with the
SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state. 

  
 129 








 Section 12.05 Survival; Revival; Reinstatement. 

(a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments
delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans
and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge
of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable
under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and
Section 12.03 and Article XI shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of
Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof. 
 (b) To the
extent that any payments on the Secured Obligations or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other
Person under any Debtor Relief Laws, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Secured Obligations so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Administrative Agent’s and
the Lenders’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Loan Document shall be automatically reinstated and the Borrower shall
take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to effect such reinstatement. 

Section 12.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. 

(a) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of
which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. 
 (b) Integration. This
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and
all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO AND MAY NOT BE
CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 

  
 130 








 (c) Effectiveness. Except as provided in Section 6.01, this Agreement shall
become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and
thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 (d) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The
words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be
of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

Section 12.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or
thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 12.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and
each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in
whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (of whatsoever kind, including, without limitations obligations under Hedging Agreements, and in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to
or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the
Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such other Loan Party may be contingent or
unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates
under this Section 12.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees to notify the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

INTO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS Section 12.09. 

Section 12.10 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only,
are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

Section 12.11 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other
representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any
regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena
or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 12.11, to (i) any assignee of or
Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Hedging Agreement relating to any Loan Party and its
obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 12.11 or (ii) becomes available to the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party or (i) to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information
about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender. For purposes of this Section 12.11, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to
any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by a Loan Party; provided
that, in the case of information received from any Loan Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section 12.11 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information. 

  
 133 








 Section 12.12 Interest Rate Limitation. It is the intention of the parties hereto
that each Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the Transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States and the State of
Texas or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents or any
agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Secured Obligations, it is agreed as follows: (a) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender that is contracted for, taken,
reserved, charged or received by such Lender under any of the Loan Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Loans shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and any excess shall be
canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the Secured Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Secured Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in
full, refunded by such Lender to the Borrower); and (b) in the event that the maturity of the Loans is accelerated by reason of an election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the
event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided
for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically by such Lender as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the Secured Obligations (or, to
the extent that the principal amount of the Secured Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Borrower). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of
sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the stated term of the Loans until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any
Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to any Lender on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such
Lender pursuant to this Section 12.12 and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Lender
computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such
Lender until the total amount of interest payable to such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this
Section 12.12. 
 Section 12.13 EXCULPATION PROVISIONS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO SPECIFICALLY AGREES THAT IT HAS A
DUTY TO READ THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND AGREES THAT IT IS CHARGED WITH NOTICE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; THAT IT HAS IN FACT READ THIS AGREEMENT AND IS FULLY INFORMED AND HAS FULL
NOTICE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERMS, CONDITIONS AND EFFECTS OF THIS AGREEMENT; THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE THROUGHOUT 

  
 134 








 
THE NEGOTIATIONS PRECEDING ITS EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; AND HAS RECEIVED THE ADVICE OF ITS ATTORNEY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS;
AND THAT IT RECOGNIZES THAT CERTAIN OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS RESULT IN ONE PARTY ASSUMING THE LIABILITY INHERENT IN SOME ASPECTS OF THE TRANSACTION AND RELIEVING THE OTHER PARTY OF ITS RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUCH
LIABILITY. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT CONTEST THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF ANY EXCULPATORY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ON THE BASIS THAT THE PARTY HAD NO NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH
PROVISION OR THAT THE PROVISION IS NOT “CONSPICUOUS.” 
 Section 12.14 Collateral Matters; Hedging Agreements; Treasury
Management Agreements. As and to the extent provided herein and in the other Loan Documents, the benefit of the Security Instruments and of the provisions of this Agreement relating to any Collateral securing the Secured Obligations shall also
extend to and be available to Secured Hedging Agreement Counterparties and Treasury Management Counterparties (on a pro rata basis as between themselves) in respect of any obligations of any Loan Party which arise under any such Secured
Hedging Agreement or Treasury Management Agreements. No Lender or Affiliate of a Lender shall have any voting rights, notice rights or consent rights under any Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under any such
Secured Hedging Agreements or Treasury Management Agreements. By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Instruments, each Secured Party agrees to the terms of this Agreement and the Security Instruments that apply to
such Liens and to the application of proceeds of enforcement thereof and (notwithstanding any anti-assignment clause or other restriction that may otherwise exist) consents to each grant by any Loan Party pursuant to the Security Instruments or a
security interest in such Loan Party’s agreements and transactions with such Secured Party. 
 Section 12.15 No Third Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the agreement of the Lenders to make Loans and the Issuing Bank to issue, amend, renew or extend Letters of Credit hereunder are solely for the benefit of the Borrower, and no other
Person (including, without limitation, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary of the Borrower, any obligor, contractor, subcontractor, supplier or materialman) shall have any rights, claims, remedies or privileges hereunder or under any other
Loan Document against the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender for any reason whatsoever. There are no third party beneficiaries other than the Indemnitees. 

Section 12.16 USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “USA Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, which information
includes the name and address of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the USA Patriot Act. This notice is given in accordance with the
USA Patriot Act and is effective for each Agent and each Lender.
