applicable Organizational Documents of such Note Party or RRI, as applicable, certified as being true and complete. The Agent and the Holders may conclusively rely on such certificate until the
Agent receives notice in writing from such Note Party or RRI, as applicable, to the contrary;

 (d) the Agent shall have received such other certificates, documents, instruments and

(f) the representations and warranties of Issuer and each other Note Party contained in the Note Purchase Agreement and the
other Note Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in which case they shall be true and correct in all respects) as of the Effective Date, except
to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in
which case they shall be true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date; and 
 (g) no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing. 
 Section 5. Representations and Warranties. Before and after the Effective Date, the Issuer
hereby confirms that (a) the representations and warranties of Issuer and each other Note Party contained in the Note Purchase Agreement and the other Note Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such
representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in which case they shall be true and correct in all respects), except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall
be true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in which case they shall be true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date, and (b) no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The execution, delivery, and performance by the Issuer of this Amendment and compliance with the terms and provisions hereof have been duly authorized by all requisite action on the part of
Issuer and do not violate any contractual or other obligation by which Issuer is bound that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 6. Effect of Amendment; Ratification of Note Documents. Except as expressly set forth in this Amendment, the terms,
provisions, conditions and covenants of the Note Purchase Agreement and the other Note Documents remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment shall not in any
manner operate as a waiver of, consent to or amendment of any other term, provision, condition or covenant of the Note Purchase Agreement or any other Note Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing in this Amendment shall
be deemed (i) to constitute a waiver of compliance or consent to noncompliance by any of the Obligated Parties to, or an amendment of, any other term, provision, condition or covenant of the Note Purchase Agreement or other Note Documents,
other than as specifically set forth herein; or (ii) to

prejudice any right or remedy that the Agent or the Holders may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Note Purchase Agreement or any other Note Document. Upon the
effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Note Purchase Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Note Purchase Agreement, as amended hereby. This
Amendment shall constitute a Note Document for all purposes. Issuer acknowledges that on the date hereof all outstanding Obligations are payable in accordance with their terms, and Issuer waives any defense, offset, counterclaim or recoupment with
respect thereto. 
 Section 7. Incorporation of Certain Provisions by Reference. The provisions of
Section 12.09 of the Note Purchase Agreement captioned “Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process” are incorporated herein by reference for all purposes. 

Section 8. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto
in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. For purposes of this Amendment, a counterpart hereof (or
signature page thereto) signed and transmitted by any Person party hereto to the Agent (or its counsel) by facsimile machine, telecopier or electronic mail is to be treated as an original. The signature of such Person thereon, for purposes hereof,
is to be considered as an original signature, and the counterpart (or signature page thereto) so transmitted is to be considered to have the same binding effect as an original signature on an original document. 

Section 9. Holders’ Authorization to Agent. By their execution hereof, each of the Holders hereby authorizes and directs the
Agent to execute and deliver this Amendment. Each Holder, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each document required to be approved by the Agent,
Requisite Holders or the Holders, as applicable, as a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment. 
 Section 10. Entirety.
This Amendment and all of the other Note Documents embody the entire agreement between the parties. THIS AMENDMENT AND ALL OF THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

Section 2.01 Note Purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and relying upon the representations and
warranties herein set forth, on the Effective Date, the Issuer shall issue to each Holder, and each Holder shall purchase from the Issuer (so long as all conditions precedent required hereby shall have then been satisfied or waived), a Note in the
aggregate principal amount equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Share of $100,000,000, to be purchased net of three percent (3.0%) discount. Such discount shall be treated as original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

Section 2.02 The Notes. The obligation of the Issuer to repay to each Holder the aggregate amount of all Notes held by such
Holder, together with interest accruing in connection therewith, shall be evidenced by Notes, as applicable, made by the Issuer payable to such Holder or its registered assigns with appropriate insertions. Interest on each Note shall accrue and be
due and payable as provided herein. Each Note shall be due and payable as provided herein and shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The Issuer may not reissue any portion of any Note that has been repaid. 

Section 2.03 Request for Notes. The Issuer must give to the Agent written or electronic notice in the form of the Note Purchase
Notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing in the form of the Note Purchase Notice) of the requested Notes to be issued to, and purchased by, the Holders on the Effective Date. Such Note Purchase Notice must:

Notice, the Agent shall give each Holder prompt notice of the terms thereof. If all conditions precedent to such new Notes have been met, each Holder will on the date requested promptly remit to the Agent, at the Agent’s Account, the amount of
such Holder’s Note in immediately available funds, and upon receipt of such funds, the Agent shall promptly make such funds available to the Issuer and the Issuer will deliver such Notes to the Agent or counsel for the Holders who shall
promptly make such Notes available to each Holder. The failure of any Holder to purchase any Note hereunder shall not relieve any other Holder of its obligation hereunder, if any, to purchase its Note, but no Holder shall be responsible for the
failure of any other Holder to purchase any Note hereunder.

Records; Notes.

of the Holders and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Notes owing to, each Holder pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by the Issuer, and a
redacted version of the Register showing the entries with respect to any Holder shall be available for inspection by such Holder, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive and binding on the Note Parties, the Agent and each Holder, absent manifest error; provided, failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Note Parties’ Obligations in respect of any
Note. The Issuer, the Agent and the Holders shall treat each Person in whose name any Note shall be registered as the owner and the Holder thereof for all purposes hereof. The Issuer hereby designates the entity serving as Agent to serve as the
Issuer’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.04(b), and the Agent shall be entitled to all of the rights, privileges and immunities afforded to it hereunder in the
performance of such duties. 
 ARTICLE III 

Payments of Principal and Interest; Prepayments; Fees 

Section 3.01 Repayment of the Notes. If any principal or interest amount payable under the Notes remains outstanding on the
Maturity Date, such amount will be paid in full by the Issuer to the Agent on behalf of the Holders in immediately available funds on the Maturity Date, together with any amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 3.02 and
Section 3.06(g). 
 Section 3.02 Interest; Fees. 

(a) Interest. Each Note shall at all times bear interest at a rate equal to 10.00% per annum (the “Applicable
Rate”) (as such amount may be increased pursuant to Section 3.02), paid in cash (“Interest”). 

  
 31 







 (b) Interest Payment Dates. Interest on each Note shall be due and payable
on each Interest Payment Date to the Holders of record in the Register on such Interest Payment Date; provided that, if Interest on any Note is required to be paid on any Settlement Date pursuant to Section 3.03 or
Section 3.04, and such Settlement Date is not a Quarterly Date, then the amount of Interest due and payable on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement
Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to such Section 3.03 or Section 3.04. All interest payable 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), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day). 
 (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if an Event of Default under
Sections 10.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing the principal amount of all Notes outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any due and unpaid interest payments on the Notes or any
fees or other amounts due and owing hereunder (other than default interest occurring under this Section 3.02(c)) shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code
or other applicable bankruptcy laws, whether or not allowed in such a proceeding) payable in Cash on demand at a rate that is two percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the Notes (without
giving effect to this Section 3.02(c)) and (ii) if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Requisite Holders so elect, the principal amount of all Notes outstanding and, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, any due and unpaid interest payments on the Notes or any fees or other amounts due and owing hereunder (other than default interest occurring under this Section 3.02(c)), shall from the date of
occurrence of such Event of Default bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws, whether or not allowed in such a proceeding) payable in Cash on demand at a rate
that is two percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the Notes (without giving effect to this Section 3.02(c)) (which election may be revoked by the Requisite
Holders notwithstanding any provision of Section 12.02(b) requiring the consent of “each Holder that would be affected thereby” for reductions of interest rates on the Notes)). Payment or acceptance of the
increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 3.02(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or
remedies of the Agent or any Holder. 
 (d) Agent Fee. The Issuer will pay to the Agent for its own account, a fee as
set forth in the Agent Fee Letter. 
 (e) Calculations. The Agent shall as soon as practicable (but in any event no
later than three (3) Business Days prior to any Interest Payment Date or the date of any other amount payable under this Section 3.02) notify the Issuer and the Holders of the effective date and the amount of each
Interest, fee or other payment under this Section 3.02. Each determination of an interest rate, interest payment amount or fee payment amount by the Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and
binding on the Issuer and the Holders in the absence of manifest error. Concurrent with each notice delivered pursuant to this Section 3.02(e), the Agent shall deliver to the Issuer and each Holder a statement showing the
quotations used by the Agent in determining any interest rate, if applicable, and the calculations related to any interest payment amount or fee payment amount.

part, $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount. All such prepayments shall be made upon not less than eight (8) Business Days prior written or telephonic notice, in each case given to the Agent by 12:00

Business Day following receipt by the Agent thereof. Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Notes specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein; provided, that any notice of
prepayment described above may provide that such prepayment is conditioned upon the satisfaction of one of more conditions precedent. Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 3.05. For the avoidance of
doubt, any acceleration, redemption, prepayment, repayment, or payment of the Obligations in or in connection with a Bankruptcy Event shall constitute an optional prepayment thereof under the terms of this Section 3.03.

the First Lien Credit Agreement or Permitted Revolver Refinancing First Lien Credit Agreement at a later date); provided, further, that nothing will restrict the Issuer from temporarily prepaying Loans under the First Lien Credit

 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 Issuer. The Issuer shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of
principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 5.01, Section 5.03 or otherwise) prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York, New York 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 shall 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 Agent at its offices specified in Section 12.01, except
that payments pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.03 and Section 12.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The 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 Agent
to pay fully all amounts of principal, 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 parties entitled thereto in accordance with the
amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties. 

(c) Ratable Sharing. The Holders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in the Security
Instruments with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Notes purchased and applied in accordance with
the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Note Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash
collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Holder hereunder or under the other Note Documents (collectively,
the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Holder) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Holder in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Holder, then the Holder receiving such proportionately greater
payment shall (a) notify Agent and each other Holder of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase Notes (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a Note simultaneously upon the
receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the ratable Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Holders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Holders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them;
provided, that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Holder is thereafter recovered from such Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, those purchases to that extent
shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such Notes shall be returned to such purchasing Holder ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Issuer expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any
Holder of a Note so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by the Issuer to that Holder with respect thereto as fully as if that Holder were owed the amount
of the Note held by that Holder. 
 Section 4.02 [Reserved].

 Section 4.03 [Reserved]. 

Section 4.04 Disposition of Proceeds. The Security Instruments contain an assignment by the Issuer and/or the Guarantors unto and
in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties of all of the Issuer’s or each Guarantor’s interest in and to production and all proceeds attributable thereto which may be produced from or allocated to the Mortgaged Property.
The Security Instruments further provide in general for the application of such proceeds to the satisfaction of the Obligations and other obligations described therein and secured thereby. Notwithstanding the assignment contained in such Security
Instruments, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, (a) the Agent agrees that it will neither notify the purchaser or purchasers of such production nor take any other action to cause such proceeds to be remitted to the Agent, but
the Agent will instead permit such proceeds to be paid to the Issuer and its Subsidiaries and (b) the Holders hereby authorize the Agent to take such actions as may be necessary to cause such proceeds to be paid to the Issuer and/or such
Subsidiaries. 
 ARTICLE V 

Increased Costs; Taxes 

Section 5.01 Increased Costs. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.03 (which shall be controlling with respect to
the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Holder shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any Governmental Requirement, or any change therein or in
the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective
after the date hereof, or compliance by such Holder with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other Governmental Authority or quasi-Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of
law): (a) subjects such Holder (or its Applicable Office) to any additional Tax (other than any Indemnified Tax or any Excluded Tax) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder
or any payments to such Holder (or its Applicable Office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder or its deposits, reserves or capital attributable thereto; (b) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve
(including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or
loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Holder; or (c) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Holder (or its Applicable Office)
or its obligations hereunder; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Holder of agreeing to purchase, purchasing or maintaining Notes hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Holder (or its
Applicable Office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, Issuer shall promptly pay to such Holder, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a
different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Holder shall reasonably determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Holder for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Holder shall
deliver to Issuer (with a copy to the Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Holder under this Section 5.01, which statement shall be conclusive and
binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error 
 Section 5.02 [Reserved]. 

Section 5.03 Taxes. 

  
 41 







 (a) Payments Free of Taxes. All sums payable by or on account of any Note
Party hereunder and under the other Note Documents shall (except to the extent otherwise required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Taxes. 

(b) Withholding of Taxes. If any Note Party or the Agent is required by law to make any deduction or withholding for or
on account of any Tax from any sum paid or payable under any of the Note Documents: (i) the Issuer shall notify the Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as the Issuer becomes aware of it; (ii) the
Issuer or the Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall pay (or cause to be paid) any such Tax to the relevant Governmental Authority before the date on which penalties attach thereto; (iii) if such Tax is an
indemnified Tax, the sum payable by such Note Party in respect of which the relevant deduction or withholding is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that after any such deduction or withholding of Indemnified Tax, Agent or
such Holder, as the case may be, and each of their Tax Related Persons receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made; and (iv) within thirty (30) days after making
any such deduction or withholding, the Issuer shall deliver to the Agent evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction or withholding and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority; provided,
that for the avoidance of doubt, no such additional amount shall be required to be paid to any Holder or Agent under clause (iii) above for, and Indemnified Taxes shall not include, any of the following Taxes, (A)any U.S. federal withholding
Tax in effect and applicable as of the date hereof (in the case of each Holder listed on the signature pages hereof on the Effective Date) or on the effective date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which such Holder became a Holder (in the
case of each other Holder) or on the date the Holder changes its Applicable Office, except to the extent that, pursuant to Section 5.03, amounts with respect to such U.S. federal withholding Taxes were payable (1) to
such Holder’s assignor (including each of their Tax Related Persons) immediately before such Holder becomes a party hereto or (2) such Holder immediately before such Holder changed its Applicable, (B) any Tax on the Overall Net Income
of the Holder or its Tax Related Persons, (C) any U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed under FATCA or (D) any Tax attributable to the Holder’s failure to comply with Section 5.03(e) (all such amounts

 (c) Other Taxes. In addition, the
Note Parties shall pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable law. The Note Parties shall deliver to the Agent official receipts or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Requisite Holders in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes payable hereunder promptly after payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid or incurred by the Agent or such Holder or their respective Tax Related Persons, as the case may be, relating to, arising out of, or in connection with any Note
Document or any payment or transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, and all reasonable expenses and costs arising
therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Note Parties shall not be required to indemnify Agent and Holders in duplication of Indemnified Taxes covered by Section 5.03(b) or
5.03(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any indemnification under this Section 5.03(d) shall be made on an after-Tax basis (including any Tax on the Overall Net Income), such
that after all required deductions and payments of all Taxes and any expenses and costs, each of the Agent, the Holders and each of their respective Tax Related Persons receives and retains an amount equal to the sum it would have received and
retained had it not paid or incurred 

  
 42 







 
or been subject to such Taxes or expenses and costs. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Issuer by a Holder (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on

reasonable exercise of its discretion), two executed copies of Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) Form W-9 establishing an exemption from a U.S. federal backup withholding Tax. Each
Holder that is not a U.S. Person for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non-U.S. Holder”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Agent and the Issuer, on or
prior to the Effective Date (in the case of each Holder listed on the signature pages hereof on the Effective Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement or joinder agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Holder (in the case of
each other Holder), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Issuer or Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), whichever of the following described in clauses (i) through (iv) below is

W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or 

(iv) to the extent a Non-U.S. Holder is not the beneficial owner of a Note, two

withholding matters pursuant to this Section 5.03(e) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Holder of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in
circumstances renders such forms certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Holder shall promptly deliver to the Agent and the Issuer two new executed copies of IRS Form
W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or IRS Form
W-8ECI (or any successor form(s) of any of the foregoing), and as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate properly completed and duly executed by such Holder, and such other documentation required under
the Code and reasonably requested by the Issuer to confirm or establish that such Holder is not subject to deduction or withholding of U.S. federal income Tax with respect to payments to such Holder under the Note Documents or is subject to

 On or before the date on
which Agent (and any successor replacement Agent) becomes the Agent, it shall deliver to the Issuer two executed copies of IRS Form W-9 establishing an exemption from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax. The
Agent (or, upon assignment or replacement, any assignee or successor) agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Issuer in writing
of its inability to do so. 
 (f) If a payment made to a Holder under any Note Document would be subject to U.S. federal
withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Holder were to fail 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 Holder shall deliver to the

financial or other information, RRI, the Issuer and the other Note Parties represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. There are no statements or conclusions in any
Reserve Report which are based upon or include misleading information or fail to take into account material information regarding the matters reported therein, it being understood that projections concerning volumes attributable to the Oil and Gas
Properties and production and cost estimates contained in each Reserve Report are necessarily based upon professional opinions, estimates and projections and RRI, the Issuer and the other Note Parties do not warrant that such opinions, estimates and

Section 9.03. After giving full effect to Liens permitted by Section 9.03, the Note Party specified as the owner owns the net interests in production attributable to the Hydrocarbon Interests as
reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report, and except as otherwise provided by statute, regulation or the standard and customary provisions of any applicable joint operating agreement, the ownership of such Properties shall not in any
material respect obligate the Note Party to bear the costs and expenses relating to the maintenance, development and operations of each such Property in an amount in excess of the working interest of each Property set forth in the most recently

(b) All material leases and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of the Note Parties are valid and subsisting,
in full force and effect, and there exists no default or event or circumstance which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would give rise to a default under any such lease or leases, which could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

all easements and rights of way, include all rights and Properties necessary to permit the Note Parties to conduct their business in all material respects in the same manner as its business is conducted on the date hereof.

Material Adverse Effect. The Note Parties either own or have valid licenses or other rights to use all databases, geological data, geophysical data, engineering data, seismic data, maps, interpretations and other technical information used in their
businesses as presently conducted, subject to the limitations contained in the agreements governing the use of the same, which limitations are customary for companies engaged in the business of the exploration and production of Hydrocarbons, with

developed in a reasonably prudent manner and in conformity with all Governmental Requirements and in conformity with the provisions of all leases, subleases or other contracts comprising a part of the Hydrocarbon Interests and other contracts 

  
 53 







 
and agreements forming a part of the Oil and Gas Properties of the Note Parties. Specifically in connection with the foregoing, except for those as could not be reasonably expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, (i) no Oil and Gas Property of the Note Parties is subject to having allowable production reduced below the full and regular allowable (including the maximum permissible tolerance) because of any overproduction (whether
or not the same was permissible at the time) and (ii) none of the wells comprising a part of the Oil and Gas Properties (or Properties unitized therewith) of the Note Parties is deviated from the vertical more than the maximum permitted
by Governmental Requirements, and such wells are bottomed under and are producing from, and the well bores are wholly within, the Oil and Gas Properties (or in the case of wells located on Properties unitized therewith, such unitized Properties) of
the Note Parties. All pipelines, wells, gas processing plants, platforms and other material improvements, fixtures and equipment owned in whole or in part by the Note Parties that are necessary to conduct normal operations are being maintained in a
state adequate to conduct normal operations, and with respect to such of the foregoing which are operated by the Note Parties, in a manner consistent with the Note Parties’ past practices (other than those the failure of which to maintain in
accordance with this Section 7.18 could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). 
 Section 7.19
Gas Imbalances; Prepayments. Except as set forth on Schedule 7.19 or on the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to Section 8.12(b), on a net basis there are no gas imbalances take or pay or other prepayments
which would require any Note Party to deliver Hydrocarbons produced from their Oil and Gas Properties at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full payment therefor exceeding two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate volumes of natural gas
(on an Mcf basis) listed in the most recent Reserve Report. 
 Section 7.20 Marketing of Production. Except for contracts listed
and in effect on the date hereof on Schedule 7.20, and thereafter either disclosed in writing to the Agent or included in the most recently delivered Reserve Report, (a) the Note Parties are receiving a price for all

material agreements exist which are not cancelable on 90 days’ notice or less without penalty or detriment for the sale of production from the Note Parties’ Hydrocarbons (including calls on or other rights to purchase,

Second Priority Liens in favor of the Agent, covering and encumbering the Mortgaged Properties and other Collateral, to the extent perfection has occurred or will occur, by the recording of a mortgage, the filing of a UCC financing statement or,
with respect to Equity Interests represented by certificates, by possession (in each case, to the extent available in the applicable jurisdiction); provided that, except in the case of pledged Equity Interests or as otherwise provided herein, Liens
permitted by Section 9.03 may exist. 
 Section 7.22 Swap Agreements and Eligible Contract Participant.
Schedule 7.22 sets forth a true and complete list of all Swap Agreements of the Note Parties as of the date hereof. After the date hereof, each report required to be delivered by the Issuer pursuant to Section 8.01(d) sets

it will incur, Debt beyond its ability to pay such Debt (after taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by it and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of its liabilities, and giving effect to amounts that could
reasonably be received by reason of indemnity, offset, insurance or any similar arrangement) as such Debt becomes absolute and matures and (c) each Note Party will not have (and will have no reason to believe that it will have
thereafter) unreasonably small capital for the conduct of its business.

deeds of trust, security agreements and financing statements or other Security Instruments, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Holders and in sufficient executed (and acknowledged where necessary or appropriate)
counterparts for recording purposes. In order to comply with the foregoing, if any Domestic Subsidiary grants a Lien on its Oil and Gas Properties pursuant to Section 8.14(a) and such Domestic Subsidiary is not a Guarantor,
then it shall become a Guarantor and comply with Section 8.14(b).

writing by the Requisite Holders, the Agent shall execute additional Note Documents delivered to it after the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that such additional Note Documents do not adversely affect the rights,
privileges, benefits and immunities of the Agent. The Agent will not otherwise be bound by, or be held obligated by, the provisions of any loan agreement, indenture or other agreement governing the Obligations (other than this Agreement and the
other Note Documents to which such Agent is a party). No written direction given to the Agent by the Requisite Holders or any Note Party that in the sole judgment of the Agent imposes, purports to impose or might reasonably be expected to impose
upon Agent any obligation or liability not set forth in or arising under this Agreement and the other Note Documents will be binding upon Agent unless Agent elects, at its sole option, to accept such direction. The Agent shall not be responsible or
liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Note Documents arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation,
acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; business interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services; accidents;
labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in the possession or control of the Agent or its bailee, the Agent will not have any duty as to any
other Collateral or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the
Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and Agent will not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral by reason of the act or omission of any
carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Agent in good faith. The Agent will not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability
of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of the Agent, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable order, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of any grantor
to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Agent hereby disclaims any representation or warranty to the
present and future holders of the Obligations concerning the perfection of the Liens granted hereunder or in the value of any of the Collateral. In the event that Agent is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial
action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in Agent’s sole discretion may cause Agent to be considered an “owner or operator” under any Environmental
Laws or otherwise cause Agent to 

  
 84 







 
incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as
the Agent or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court appointed receiver. As between the Issuer and the Agent, or with respect to any matters related to this agreement, the Issuer agrees that the Agent should not
be liable to any person for any environmental liability or any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Agent’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and
directed hereunder or relating to any kind of Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials into the environment. Each Holder authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Note Documents to which it is a party.
Each Holder agrees that any action taken by the Agent or Requisite Holders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Note Documents and the exercise by the Agent or Requisite Holders of their respective powers set forth therein or
herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Holders. 
 (c) Notice
of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to Events of Default in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent
for the account of the Holders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Holder or the Issuer in accordance with the notice requirements of Section 12.01 herein referring to this Agreement, describing such
Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent will notify the Holders of its receipt of any such notice, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such
action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Holders. 

Section 11.04 Action by the Agent. The Agent shall have no duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Note Documents that the Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Requisite Holders (or such other number or percentage of the Holders as
shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02) and in all cases the Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Note Documents unless it shall
(a) receive written instructions from the Requisite Holders or the Holders, as applicable, (or such other number or percentage of the Holders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02)
specifying the action to be taken and (b) be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expenses which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The instructions
as aforesaid and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto by the Agent shall be binding on all of the Holders. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, then the Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be
directed by the requisite Requisite Holders in the written instructions (with indemnities) described in this Section 11.04 provided that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Holders. In no event, however, shall the Agent be required to take any action which, in its
opinion, or the opinion of its counsel, exposes the Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, the Note Documents or applicable law, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay
under any Debtor Relief Law. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, no Agent shall have any obligation to perform any act in respect thereof. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the
request of the Requisite Holders or the Holders (or such other number or percentage of the Holders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02), and otherwise the Agent shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it hereunder or under any other Note Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith INCLUDING ITS OWN ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE, except for its
own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

  
 85 







 Section 11.05 The Holders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgement. 

(a) Each Holder represents and warrants to the Agent that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial
condition and affairs of each Note Party, without reliance upon the Agent or any other Holder and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, in connection with Note Purchases hereunder and that it has made and shall
continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Note Party. The Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the
Holders or to provide any Holder with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the purchase of the Notes or at any time or times thereafter, and the Agent shall not have any responsibility with
respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Holders. 
 (b) Each Holder, by delivering
its signature page to this Agreement or a joinder agreement and funding its Note, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Note Document and each other document required to be approved by the Agent,
Requisite Holders or the Holders, as applicable. 
 Section 11.06 Successor Agent. 

(a) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this Section 11.06,
the Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Requisite Holders, and the Issuer. The Agent may be removed as the Agent at the request of the Requisite Holders. Upon any such notice of
resignation or removal, Requisite Holders shall have the right (in consultation with the Issuer unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Requisite Holders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the
Requisite Holders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent, as applicable, hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Holders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above. In such case, the Requisite Holders shall appoint one Person
to act as the Agent for purposes of any communications with the Issuer, and until the Issuer shall have been notified in writing of such Person and such Person’s notice address as provided for in Section 12.01, the
Issuer shall be entitled to give and receive communications to/from the resigning Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Agent hereunder by a successor Agent and the payment of the outstanding fees and expenses of the resigning or
removed Agent, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent and the retiring or removed Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor
Agent all sums and other items of Collateral held under the Security Instruments, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Agent under the Note
Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be reasonably requested in connection with the assignment to such successor Agent of the security
interests created under the Security Instruments (the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of which shall be borne by the Issuer), whereupon such retiring or removed Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or any Agent’s removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11.06 shall inure to its benefit as
to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent hereunder. 

  
 86 







 (b) The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers under this Agreement or under any other Note Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the 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 Affiliates. The Agent shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of its sub-agents so long as they are appointed with
due care. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of Section 11.03 shall apply to any Affiliates of the Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Notes
issued hereby. All of the rights, benefits and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of Section 12.11(a) shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the
Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent. 

Section 11.07 Security Instruments. 

(a) Agent under Security Instruments; Releases. Each Holder and other Secured Party hereby irrevocably authorizes the
Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Holders and the other Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the Holders and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Security Instruments and to enter into such other
agreements with respect to the Collateral (including intercreditor agreements) as it may deem necessary with the consent of the Requisite Holders. The Agent is expressly authorized to execute any documents or instruments or take other actions
necessary to (i) release any Lien (x) encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted hereby or (y) with respect to which release the Requisite Holders (or the Holders as may
be required to give such consent under Section 12.02) have consented to, or (ii) release any Guarantor from the guarantee pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement with respect to (x) any Person that no longer
constitutes a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereby or (y) which release the Requisite Holders (or such other Holders as may be required to give such consent under Section 12.02) have consented to.

 (b) Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Note Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer, the Agent and each Holder hereby agree that (i) no Holder shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any guaranty or exercise any other remedy provided under the
Note Documents (other than the right of set-off), it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Agent (acting at the written direction of the
Requisite Holders), on behalf of the Holders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under this Agreement and the Security Instruments may be exercised solely by the Agent (acting at the written direction of the
Requisite Holders), and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Agent or its nominee may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and Agent, as
the Agent for and representative of the Holders (but not any Holder or the Holders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Requisite Holders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and
making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations arising under the Note Documents as a credit on account of the purchase price for any
collateral payable by the Agent at such sale. 
 Section 11.08 Posting of Approved Electronic Communications. 

(a) Delivery of Communications. Each Note Party hereby agree, unless directed otherwise by the Agent or unless
the electronic mail address referred to below has not been provided by the Agent to such Person, that it will provide to the Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Agent or to the Holders pursuant
to the Note 

  
 87 







 
Documents, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) is
or relates to a Note Purchase Notice, (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement
or any other Note Document, or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any Note or other Note Purchase hereunder (all such
non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium that is properly identified in a format
acceptable to the Issuer and Agent to an electronic mail address as directed by the Agent. In addition, each Note Party agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Agent or the Holders, as the case may be, in the manner specified in the
Note Documents. 
 (b) No Prejudice to Notice Rights. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Agent or any
Holder to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Note Document in any other manner specified in such Note Document. 

Section 11.09 Agent May File Proofs of Claim. The Holders and each Note Party hereby agree that after the occurrence of an Event
of Default pursuant to Section 10.01(h) or Section 10.01(i), in case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding
relative to any Note Party, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Note shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Agent shall have made any demand on any Note Party)
shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the
whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and any other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Holders, the Agent and other agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Holders, the Agent and other agents and their agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Holders, the Agent
and other agents hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other
property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, interim trustee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
Holders, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent and other agents hereunder. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
authorize Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Holders or to authorize Agent to vote in respect
of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. Further, nothing contained in this Section 11.09 shall affect or preclude the ability of any Holder to (i) file and prove such a claim in the event that Agent has not
acted within ten (10) days prior to any applicable bar date and (ii) require an amendment of the proof of claim to accurately reflect such Holder’s outstanding Obligations. 

  
 88 







 Section 11.10 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Holder (and each Person that becomes a
Holder hereunder pursuant to Section 12.04) hereby authorizes the Agent to enter into, join or otherwise become party to the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Holder, in each case, as needed to effectuate the transactions
permitted by this Agreement and agrees that the Agent may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of Intercreditor Agreement. Without limiting the provisions of Sections 9.02, 11.01 and 12.03, each Holder hereby
consents to the Agent and any successor serving in such capacity and agrees not to assert any claim (including as a result of any conflict of interest) against the Agent, or any such successor, arising from the role of the Agent or such successor
under the Note Documents or any such intercreditor agreement so long as it is either acting in accordance with the terms of such documents and otherwise has not engaged in gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final and
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction). In addition, the Agent, or any such successor, shall be authorized, with the consent of the Requisite Holders, to execute or to enter into amendments of, and amendments and restatements
of, the Security Instruments, the Intercreditor Agreement and any additional and replacement intercreditor agreements, as is contemplated by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

ARTICLE XII 

Miscellaneous 

Section 12.01 Notices. 

(a) Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and subject to
Section 12.01(b)), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by fax, as follows:

 (i) if to RRI or the Issuer, as set forth on Annex II; 

(ii) if to the Agent, as set forth on Annex II; 

(iii) if to any other Holder, as set forth on Annex II. 

(b) Notices and other communications to the Holders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications
pursuant to procedures approved by the Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II, Article III, Article IV and Article V unless otherwise agreed by the Agent and the
applicable Holder. The Agent or the Issuer may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures
may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
 (c) Any party hereto may change its address or fax number for
notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of
receipt or upon confirmed receipt of fax transmission (which confirmation shall be made by telephone call by the sender to the Agent, confirmation by electronic messaging shall not be deemed to be confirmation of receipt). 

Section 12.02 Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure on the part of the Agent, any other Agent or Holder 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 Note Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege under any of the Note Documents preclude any other or further exercise 

  
 89 







 
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Agent, each other Agent and the Holders hereunder and under the other Note 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 Note Document or consent to any departure by RRI or any Note Party therefrom shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be permitted by Section 12.02(b), and then 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 purchase of any Note shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Agent, any other Agent or any Holder may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor any Note Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or
modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Issuer and/or the other applicable Note Parties and the Requisite Holders or by the Issuer and/or the other applicable Note Parties and the Agent with the consent
of the Requisite Holders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Holder without the written consent of such Holder, (ii) [reserved], (iii) reduce the principal amount of any Note or reduce the
rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, or reduce any other Obligations hereunder or under any other Note Document, without the written consent of each Holder affected thereby, (iv) postpone the scheduled date of payment
or prepayment of the principal amount of any Note, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or any other Obligations hereunder or under any other Note Document, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone or
extend the Maturity Date without the written consent of each Holder affected thereby; provided, however, the mandatory prepayment provisions contained in Section 3.04(a),
Section 3.04(c) and Section 3.04(f) may be waived with the consent of the Requisite Holders, (v) change Section 4.01(b) or Section 4.01(c)
in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Holder, (vi) waive or amend Section 3.04(c), Section 6.01, or
Section 12.18 without the written consent of each Holder affected thereby, (vii) release any material Guarantor (except as set forth in Section 11.07 or the Guaranty Agreement), release all or
substantially all of the collateral (other than as provided in Section 11.10 of the Guaranty Agreement), or reduce the percentages set forth in Section 8.14(a), without the written consent of each Holder,
(viii) change any of the provisions of this Section 12.02(b) or the definitions of “Requisite Holders” or “Pro Rata Share” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of
Holders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Note Documents or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or any other Note Documents, without the written consent of each Holder; or (ix) change
Section 10.02(c) without the consent of each Person to whom an Obligation is owed; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agent hereunder or
under any other Note Document without the prior written consent of the Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any supplement to any Schedule shall be effective simply by delivering to the Agent a supplemental schedule clearly marked as such and, upon
receipt, the Agent will promptly deliver a copy thereof to the Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the Agent may amend this Agreement or any other Note Document without the consent of the Holders in order to correct, amend or cure
any ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Note Document. 

Section 12.03 Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Issuer shall pay (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, the Requisite Holders and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel
for the Agent, the Requisite Holders and their respective Affiliates and to the extent necessary as determined by the Agent or Requisite Holders, other outside

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 ONE OUTSIDE
COUNSEL FOR EACH INDEMNITEE AND, IF REASONABLY NECESSARY, OF A SINGLE LOCAL COUNSEL IN EACH APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION (WHICH MAY INCLUDE A SINGLE SPECIAL COUNSEL ACTING IN MULTIPLE JURISDICTIONS) FOR ALL SUCH INDEMNITEES, TAKEN AS A WHOLE (AND, IN
THE CASE OF AN ACTUAL OR PERCEIVED CONFLICT OF INTEREST, ONE ADDITIONAL COUNSEL FOR SUCH AFFECTED INDEMNITEE(S)), INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF (i) THE EXECUTION OR DELIVERY
OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, (ii) THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES HERETO OR THE PARTIES TO ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR

 91 







 
TREATMENT OF OIL, OIL AND GAS WASTES, SOLID WASTES OR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR AT ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES OR ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THE ISSUER OR ANY OF ITS
SUBSIDIARIES, (x) THE BREACH OR NON-COMPLIANCE BY THE ISSUER OR ANY OTHER NOTE PARTY WITH ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW APPLICABLE TO THE ISSUER OR ANY OTHER NOTE PARTY, (xi) THE PAST OWNERSHIP BY THE ISSUER
OR ANY OTHER NOTE PARTY OF ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES OR PAST ACTIVITY ON ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES WHICH, THOUGH LAWFUL AND FULLY PERMISSIBLE AT THE TIME, COULD RESULT IN PRESENT LIABILITY, (xii) THE PRESENCE, USE, RELEASE, STORAGE, TREATMENT,
DISPOSAL, GENERATION, THREATENED RELEASE, TRANSPORT, ARRANGEMENT FOR TRANSPORT OR ARRANGEMENT FOR DISPOSAL OF OIL, OIL AND GAS WASTES, SOLID WASTES OR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR AT ANY OF THE PROPERTIES OWNED OR OPERATED BY THE ISSUER OR ANY OTHER

NOTE PARTY, (xiv) ANY OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH OR SAFETY CONDITION IN CONNECTION WITH THE NOTE DOCUMENTS, OR (xv) ANY ACTUAL OR PROSPECTIVE CLAIM, LITIGATION, INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, WHETHER BASED
ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY, WHETHER BROUGHT BY A THIRD PARTY OR BY ANY NOTE PARTY, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY INDEMNITEE IS A PARTY THERETO, AND SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL EXTEND TO EACH INDEMNITEE NOTWITHSTANDING THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT
NEGLIGENCE OF EVERY KIND OR CHARACTER WHATSOEVER, WHETHER ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, WHETHER AN AFFIRMATIVE ACT OR AN OMISSION, INCLUDING ALL TYPES OF NEGLIGENT CONDUCT IDENTIFIED IN THE RESTATEMENT (SECOND) OF TORTS OF ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNITEES OR BY

Holder’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent or such Agent in its capacity as such.

assert, and the Issuer hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems
(including the Internet), and (ii) the Issuer shall not, and shall cause each Note Party not to, assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
(as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Note or the use of the
proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this clause (d)(ii) shall relieve the Issuer of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by
a third party. 
 (e) All amounts due under this Section 12.03 shall be payable not later than
10 days after written demand and invoice therefor. 
 Section 12.04 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) neither RRI nor the Issuer may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Holder (and any
attempted assignment or transfer by RRI or the Issuer without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Holder may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this
Section 12.04. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the
extent provided in Section 12.04(c)) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent and the Holders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement. 
 (b) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 12.04(b)(i), any Holder may assign
to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) any Notes and all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with the prior written consent of the Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld),
provided that no consent of the Issuer shall be required if (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (2) at any other time, such assignment is to an Eligible Assignee or (3) at any other time, such assignment is
to any Assignee so long as EIG continues to hold more than 50.0% of aggregate outstanding principal amounts of the Notes after giving effect to such assignment; provided further, that the Issuer shall be deemed to have consented to any
such assignment unless the Issuer shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received written notice thereof. 

(i) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Holder, an Affiliate of a Holder, a Related Fund or an assignment of the entire
remaining amount of the assigning Holder’s Notes, the amount of the Notes of the assigning Holder subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent)
shall not be less than $100,000 unless each of the Issuer and the Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Issuer shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

  
 93 







 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (C) the parties to each assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (other than in the case of an assignment from a Holder to its Affiliate or to a Related Fund); and 

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Holder, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(ii) Subject to Section 12.04(b)(iv) and the acceptance and recording thereof, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment Agreement the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Holder under this Agreement, and the
assigning Holder thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Holder’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Holder shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01, Section 5.03 and
Section 12.03). If any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Holder shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its
applicable Note to the Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Issuer shall issue and deliver a new Note, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Holder, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Holder, with appropriate insertions, to
reflect the outstanding principal balance under the Notes of the assignee and/or the assigning Holder. Any assignment or transfer by a Holder 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 Holder of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.04(c). 

(iii) The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Issuer,
shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Issuer, the Agent and the Holders shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Holder hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Issuer and any Holder, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In connection with any changes to the Register, if necessary, the Agent will reflect the revisions on Annex I and forward a copy of such revised Annex I to the Issuer
and each Holder. 
 (iv) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment Agreement executed by an assigning Holder and an
assignee, the Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and, if required hereunder, applicable tax forms (unless the Assignee shall already be a Holder hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this
Section 12.04(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by this Section 12.04(b), the Agent shall accept such Assignment Agreement 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(b). 

  
 94 







 (v) Each Holder, in its role as assignee, upon executing and delivering an
Assignment Agreement, represents and warrants as of the applicable effective date (as set forth in the applicable Assignment Agreement) that (A) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in notes; and (B) it will make
or invest in, as the case may be, its Notes for its own account in the ordinary course of its business and without a view to distribution of such Notes within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it
being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 12.04, the disposition of Notes or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control). In addition, each Holder becoming party
hereto after the Effective Date, upon executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties contained in Article XIII as of the applicable effective date (as set forth in the
applicable Assignment Agreement). 
 (vi) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment or participation shall be made to any
Note Party or any Affiliate of a Note Party. 
 (c) (i) Holder may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the
Issuer, the Agent or any other Person, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Holder’s
rights and obligations under the Notes owing to it and this Agreement; provided that (A) such Holder’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Holder shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Issuer, the Agent and the other Holders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Holder in connection with such Holder’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement, and (D) the selling Holder shall maintain the Participant Register. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Holder sells such a participation shall provide that such Holder shall retain the sole right to enforce the Notes
owing to it and 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 Holder will not, without the consent of the Participant,
agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 12.02(b) that affects such Participant. In addition such agreement must provide that the Participant be bound by the provisions of
Section 12.03. Subject to Section 12.04(c)(ii), the Issuer 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 Holder 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 Holder, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.01(c) as though it were a
Holder. Each Holder that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Issuer, 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 Notes or other obligations under the Note Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Holder 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 Note
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 Treasury Regulation
Section 5f.103-1(c), proposed Treasury Regulation 1.163-5 or any applicable temporary, final or other successor regulations. The entries in the Participant Register
shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Holder 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 Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
 95 







 (i) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 5.01 or Section 5.03 than the applicable Holder would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the entitlement to a greater payment
results from a Change in Law after such Participant acquired its participation. A Participant that shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.03 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Issuer, to
comply with the requirements and limitations under Section 5.03(e) as though it were a Holder (it being understood the documentation required under Section 5.03(e) shall be provided only to the
selling Holder). 
 (d) Any Holder may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under Notes owing to it and this Agreement to secure obligations of such Holder, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or a central bank, and this Section 12.04(d) shall not
apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Holder from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such
Holder as a party hereto. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 12.04, no
transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Holder or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Issuer and the other Note Parties to file a registration statement
with the SEC or to qualify the Notes under the “blue sky” laws of any state. 
 (f) Each Holder upon executing and
delivering an Assignment Agreement, represents and warrants as of the applicable Effective Date (as defined in the applicable Assignment Agreement) that (i) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in notes; and
(ii) it will make or invest in, as the case may be, its Notes for its own account in the ordinary course of its business and without a view to distribution of such Notes within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other
federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 12.04(f), the disposition of Notes or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control). In addition,
each Holder becoming party hereto after the Effective Date, upon executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties contained in Article XIII as of the applicable Effective Date
(as defined in the applicable Assignment Agreement). 
 Section 12.05 Survival; Revival; Reinstatement. 

(a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by RRI or the Note Parties herein and in the certificates or
other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Note 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
other Note Documents and the making of any Note Purchase, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent, any other Agent or any Holder 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 Note or any fee or any other amount payable under this
Agreement is outstanding and unpaid. 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 Notes, or the termination of this Agreement, any other Note Document or any provision hereof or thereof. 

  
 96 







 (b) To the extent that any payments on the 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 bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such
extent, the Obligations shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Agent’s and the Holders’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each Note Document
shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Note Document shall be automatically reinstated and the Issuer shall, and shall cause each other Note Party to, take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Agent and the Holders
to effect such reinstatement. 
 Section 12.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 

(a) 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) This Agreement,
the other Note Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the 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 NOTE 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. 

(c) Except as provided in Section 6.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been
executed by the Agent and when the Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, 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 fax or other similar electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

Section 12.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Note 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 Holder and each of its
Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations
(of whatsoever kind, including obligations under Swap Agreements) at any time owing by such Holder or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Issuer or any other Note Party against any of and all the obligations of the Issuer or any
other Note Party owed to such Holder now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Note Document, irrespective of whether or not such Holder shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Note Document and although such
obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Holder under this Section 12.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Holder or its Affiliates may have.

 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. 

(a) All information furnished from time to time (either before, on or after the date hereof) by or on behalf of the Issuer or
any other Note Party to the Agent or a Holder or any of their representatives or advisors (each, a “Recipient”) (other than any such information that is available to the Agent or a Holder on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by
such Note Party) is so furnished on a confidential basis (such information, the “Confidential Information”) and the Recipients will maintain the confidentiality thereof in accordance with the terms hereof; provided however, that a
Recipient may disclose such information (i) to its Affiliates, partners, prospective partners, members and prospective members and its and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, attorneys, accountants, advisors, auditors,
consultants, agents or representatives with a need to know such Confidential Information (collectively “Permitted Recipients”) (provided that such potential assignee or transferee shall have been advised of and agree to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 12.11(a)), (ii) to any potential assignee or transferee of any of its rights or obligations hereunder (including without limitation, in connection with a sale of any or all of the Notes) or any of their agents and
advisors (provided that such potential assignee or transferee shall have been advised of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 12.11(a)), (iii) if such information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of
a breach of this Section 12.11(a), (y) becomes available to a Recipient or any of its Permitted Recipients on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Note Parties or (z) is
independently developed by the Recipient or any of its Permitted Recipients without the use of or reliance on such information, (iv) to enable it to enforce or otherwise exercise any of its rights and remedies under any Note Document or
(v) as consented to by the Issuer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 12.11(a) or otherwise, nothing herein shall prevent a Recipient or its Permitted Recipients from complying with any legal requirements
(including, without limitation, pursuant to any rule, regulation, stock exchange requirement, self-regulatory body, supervisory authority, other applicable judicial or governmental order, legal process, fiduciary or similar duties or otherwise) to
disclose any Confidential Information. In addition, the Recipient and its Permitted Recipients may disclose Confidential Information if so requested by a governmental, self-regulatory or supervisory authority. Each Note Party hereby acknowledges and
agrees that, subject to the restrictions on disclosure of Confidential Information as provided in this Section 12.11(a), the Recipient and their respective Affiliates are in the business of making investments in and otherwise engaging in
businesses which may or may not be in competition with the Note Parties or otherwise related to their and their Affiliates’ respective business and that nothing herein shall, or shall be construed to, limit the Holders’ or their
Affiliates’ ability to make such investments or engage in such businesses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.11(a), the parties (and each employee, representative, or other agent of the parties) may disclose to any and
all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the Tax treatment and any facts that may be relevant to the Tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Note Documents; provided, however, that no party (and no
employee, representative, or other agent thereof) shall disclose any other information that is not relevant to an understanding of the Tax treatment and Tax structure of the transaction (including the identity of any party and any information that
could lead another to determine the identity of any party), or any other information to the extent that such disclosure could reasonably result in a violation of any applicable securities law. 

  
 99 







 (b) The Issuer understands and acknowledges that in the regular course of a
Holder’s business, such Holder may invest in companies that have issued securities that are publicly traded (each, a “Public Company”). Accordingly, Issuer covenants and agrees that before providing material non-public information about any Public Company (other than material non-public information in respect of RRI and its Subsidiaries) (“Public Company
Information”), the Issuer will use reasonable best efforts to provide prior written notice to the applicable compliance personnel indicated in Schedule 12.11. The Issuer shall not disclose Public Company Information to such Holder
without written authorization from such compliance personnel; provided that any failure to comply with this Section 12.11(b) shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder; and provided, further, that this
Section 12.11(b) shall not apply to any information provided pursuant to the RRI Certificate of Designation to the Board Observer (as defined therein). 

Section 12.12 Interest Rate Limitation. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Holder shall conform strictly to usury
laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Holder under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of Texas or any other jurisdiction whose
laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Holder notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Note Documents or any agreement entered into in connection with or
as security for the Notes, it is agreed as follows: (a) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Holder that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Holder under
any of the Note Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Notes 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 Holder on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Holder to the Issuer); and (b) in the
event that the maturity of the Notes 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 Holder 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 Holder as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Holder on the principal amount of the Debt (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Debt shall have been or
would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Holder to the Issuer). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Holder, be
amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the stated term of the Notes until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Notes 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 Holder on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Holder pursuant to this Section 12.12 and (ii) in respect
of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Holder would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Holder computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Holder, then the amount of
interest payable to such Holder in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Holder until the total amount of interest payable to such Holder shall equal the
total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Holder if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 12.12. To the extent that Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code is
relevant for the purpose of determining the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to any Holder, such Holder elects to determine the applicable rate ceiling under such Chapter by the weekly ceiling from time to time in effect. Chapter 346 of
the Texas Finance Code does not apply to the Issuer’s obligations hereunder.

instructions.

made available by the Holders pursuant to this Agreement and the other Note Documents without the prior written consent of the Requisite Holders and the Issuer (such consent of the Issuer or Requisite Holders not to be unreasonably withheld,

 ARTICLE XIII 

REPRESENTATIONS OF HOLDERS 

In order to induce the Issuer to issue and sell the Notes to the Holders, each Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Issuer, and
acknowledges as follows 
 Section 13.01 Organization and Standing. Such Holder is a corporation or other entity duly
incorporated or formed and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation. 
 Section 13.02
Authorization; Enforceability. Such Holder has the full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and (assuming due execution by the other parties hereto) this Agreement constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except to the extent the enforceability thereof may be limited by (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws
affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) implied covenants of good faith and fair
dealing. 
 Section 13.03 Investment. Such Holder acquired each such Note solely for its own account, for investment purposes,
with no intention of distributing or reselling such Note in any public offering or in any transaction that would be in violation of applicable securities laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction or any state or province
thereof, without prejudice, however, to such Holder’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Note under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities or
“blue sky” laws (it being understood that the Issuer has no obligation or intention to undertake any such registration), or an exemption from such registration requirements and in compliance with applicable securities laws. Such Holder has
not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Note by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D of the Securities Act, or
in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. 

  
 104 







 Section 13.04 Accredited Investor. Such Holder, at the time that it committed to
enter into this Agreement was, and now is, an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. 

Section 13.05 No Resale or Repurchase. No person has made to such Holder any written or oral representations (i) that
any person will resell or repurchase the Notes (except in accordance with the Organizational Documents of the Issuer), (ii) that any person will refund the purchase price of the Notes, or (iii) as to the future price or value of the
Notes. 
 Section 13.06 Private Placement. Such Holder understands that the Notes are being offered for sale only on a
“private placement” basis and that the sale and delivery of the Notes is conditional upon such sale being exempt from the requirements as to the filing of a prospectus or registration statement or delivery of an offering memorandum or upon
the issuance of such orders, consents or approvals as may be required to permit such sale without the requirement of filing a prospectus or delivering an offering memorandum and, as a consequence, (i) such Holder is restricted from using
most of the civil remedies available under applicable securities legislation, (ii) such Holder may not receive information that would otherwise be required to be provided to it under applicable securities legislation, and
(iii) the Issuer is relieved from certain obligations that would otherwise apply under applicable securities legislation. 

Section 13.07 Knowledge and Experience. Without limiting the force and effect of the representations and warranties of any party
to a Note Document, such Holder (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, as to enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of entering into this Agreement, receiving the Notes, (ii) is able to
bear the economic risk of the transaction, (iii) is able to hold its interest indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Securities Act or is exempt from registration and is completed in compliance with
applicable securities laws, (iv) has been independently advised as to restrictions with respect to trading in the Notes imposed by applicable securities laws, (v) confirms that no representation (written or oral) has been
made to it (with respect to trading restrictions imposed by applicable securities laws) by or on behalf of the Issuer or Agent with respect thereto, (vi) has conducted its own investigation of the Issuer and the terms of the Note,
(vii) (A) confirms it has had access to information as it deemed necessary to make its decision to purchase the Notes, and (B) has been offered the opportunity to ask questions of the Issuer and receive answers thereto, as it
deemed necessary in connection with the decision to purchase the Notes, and (viii) acknowledges that it is aware of the characteristics of the Notes, and the risks relating to an investment therein. 

Section 13.08 No Materials. Without limiting the representations and warranties set forth in the Note Documents, such Holder has
not received or been provided with, nor has it requested, nor does it have any need to receive, any offering memorandum, any prospectus, sales or advertising literature describing or purporting to describe the business and affairs of the Issuer
which has been prepared for delivery to, and review by, prospective purchasers in order to assist them in making an investment decision in respect of the Notes. 

Section 13.09 Transfer Restrictions. Such Holder acknowledges and agrees that none of the Notes has been registered under the
Securities Act or the securities laws of any country or state, and none of them may be sold or otherwise transferred in the absence of an effective registration thereunder unless an exemption from registration is available. Such Holder also
acknowledges and agrees that the Notes are subject to resale restrictions in the United States, may be subject to resale restrictions in jurisdictions other than the United States under applicable securities laws, and that any sale or transfer will
be completed in compliance with applicable securities laws. 

  
 105 







 Section 13.10 Offer and Sales Only in Certain Circumstances. If such Holder decides
to offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of the Notes, it will not offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of such Notes, directly or indirectly, unless: (a) the sale is made pursuant to registration of the Notes under the Securities
Act; (b) the sale is made to the Issuer; (c) the sale is made outside the United States in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable local securities laws and
regulations; (d) the sale is made pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 or Rule 144A thereunder, if available, and, in either case, in accordance with any applicable state securities
or “blue sky” laws; or (e) the Notes are sold in any other transaction that does not require registration under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws. 

Section 13.11 Subsequent Purchaser Notification. Such Holder will take reasonable steps to inform, and cause each of its
Affiliates and Related Funds that is a U.S. person (as defined in Section 902 of Regulation S under the Securities Act) to take reasonable steps to inform, any person acquiring Notes from such Holder, Affiliate or Related Fund, as the case may be,
in the United States that the Notes (A) have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, (B) are being sold to them without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 144A or in accordance with another exemption from
registration under the Securities Act and (C) may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except (1) to the Issuer, (2) outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S and in compliance with applicable local securities laws and
regulations, (3) inside the United States in accordance with (x) Rule 144A to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a qualified institutional buyer, as defined in Rule 144A (“Qualified Institutional Buyer”) that is purchasing
such Notes for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer to whom notice is given that the offer, sale or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (y) pursuant to another available exemption from registration
under the Securities Act. 
 Section 13.12 No Plan Assets. The assets of each Holder are not considered “plan assets”
