Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount increases or decreases for any reason (whether pursuant to Section 2.05, Section 12.04(b) or otherwise), the Borrower shall, upon request of such Revolving
Credit Lender, deliver or cause to be delivered on the effective date of such increase or decrease, a new Revolving Credit Note payable to such Revolving Credit Lender in a principal amount equal to its Maximum Credit Amount after giving effect to
such increase or decrease, and otherwise duly completed, against return to the Borrower of the Revolving Credit Note so replaced. The date, amount, Type, interest rate and, if applicable, Interest Period of each Revolving Credit Loan made by each
Revolving Credit Lender, and all payments made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Revolving Credit Lender on its books for its Revolving Credit Note. Failure to make any such notation or to attach a schedule shall not
affect any Revolving Credit Lender’s or the Borrower’s rights or obligations in respect of such Revolving Credit Loans. 

  
 44

Section 12.04(b)(iv), and a subaccount therein for each Revolving Credit Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Revolving Credit Borrowing made hereunder,

entries made in the Register maintained pursuant to this Section 2.02(e) shall, absent manifest error, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of
the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Revolving Credit Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any account, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect
the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Revolving Credit Borrowings (and all other amounts owing with respect thereto) made to the Borrower by the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Revolving Credit Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date, as aforesaid. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to
the Borrower the amount of such payment in reliance on such assumption. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Revolving Credit Lender, as aforesaid, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover
such amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Lender. If such Revolving Credit Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor and the Administrative Agent has in fact made a corresponding amount
available to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, if such notice is delivered to the Borrower prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Business
Day, on the day such notice is received, and otherwise on the next Business Day, and such amount paid by the Borrower shall be applied as a prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans (without any corresponding reduction in the Aggregate Maximum Credit
Amount), reimbursing the Administrative Agent for having funded said amounts on behalf of such Revolving Credit Lender. The Borrower shall retain its claim against such Revolving Credit Lender with respect to the amounts repaid by it to the
Administrative Agent and, if such Revolving Credit Lender subsequently makes such amounts available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly make such amounts available to the Borrower as a Revolving Credit Borrowing. The
Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, but without duplication, interest on such amount in respect of each day from the date such amount was made available by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower, to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to: 

  
 47 












 (i) in the case of such Revolving Credit Lender, for the first two (2) Business Days
such amount remains unpaid, the NYFRB Rate, and thereafter, at the rate of interest then applicable to such Revolving Credit Borrowings; and 

(ii) in the case of the Borrower, the rate of interest then applicable to such Revolving Credit Borrowing. 

Until such Revolving Credit Lender has paid the Administrative Agent such amount, such Revolving Credit Lender shall have no interest in or rights with respect
to such Borrowing for any purpose whatsoever. The obligation of any Revolving Credit Lender to make any Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make any Loan hereunder, and no
Revolving Credit Lender shall have any liability to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, any other Revolving Credit Lender, or any other party for another Revolving Credit Lender’s failure to make any Loan
hereunder. 
 Section 2.05 Termination and Reduction of Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts 

(a) Scheduled Termination of Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date. If at any time the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts, the Elected Loan Limit or the Borrowing Base are terminated or reduced to zero, then the Commitments shall terminate on the effective date of such termination or reduction. 

(b) Optional Termination and Reduction of Aggregate Credit Amounts. 

(i) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts; provided that each
reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts if, after giving
effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 3.03(c)(i), the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments. 

(ii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts under
Section 2.05(b)(i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Revolving Credit Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of
termination of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other agreements, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower
(by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be made ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance
with each Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage. 

  
 48 












 Section 2.06 Borrowing Base 

(a) Initial Borrowing Base. The Borrowing Base on the Effective Date shall be $1,000,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Borrowing Base may be subject to further adjustments from time to time pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions. 
 (b)
Scheduled and Interim Redeterminations. The Borrowing Base shall be redetermined as provided in accordance with this Section 2.06, and, subject to Section 2.06(d), the Borrowing Base shall
be redetermined semi-annually (each a “Scheduled Redetermination”), and shall become effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Revolving Credit Lenders (x) on or about
April 1, 2022 and (y) commencing November 1, 2022, on or about May 1 of each year (with respect to the Reserve Report required to be delivered on April 1) and on or about November 1 of each year (with respect to the Reserve
Report required to be delivered on October 1). In addition, (i) Borrower may, by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof, and the Administrative Agent may, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, by notifying the Borrower thereof, two
times per year, each elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined between Scheduled Redeterminations and (ii) the Borrower may elect, by notifying the Administrative Agent of any acquisition of Oil and Gas Properties by any Credit Party
with a purchase price in the aggregate of at least five percent (5%) of the then effective Borrowing Base, to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined between Scheduled Redeterminations in accordance with this
Section 2.06 (each redetermination under clause (i) or (ii) of this sentence, an “Interim Redetermination”). 

(c) Scheduled and Interim Redetermination Procedure. 

(i) Each Scheduled Redetermination and each Interim Redetermination shall be effectuated as follows: Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent
of the Reserve Report, the certificate required to be delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination, pursuant to Section 8.12(a) and
Section 8.12(c), and in the case of an Interim Redetermination, pursuant to Section 8.12(b) and Section 8.12(c), and such other reports, data and supplemental information,
including, without limitation, the information provided pursuant to Section 8.12(c), as may, from time to time, be reasonably requested by the Majority Lenders (the Reserve Report, such certificate and such other reports,
data and supplemental information with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties and other Properties of the Credit Parties being the “Engineering Reports”), the Administrative Agent shall evaluate the information contained in the
Engineering Reports and shall, in good faith, propose a new Borrowing Base (the “Proposed Borrowing Base”) based upon such information and such other information (including, without limitation, the status of title information with
respect to the Oil and Gas Properties as described in the Engineering Reports and the existence of any other Debt) as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion and consistent with its normal oil and gas lending criteria
as it exists at the particular time. 

  
 49 












 (ii) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders of
the Proposed Borrowing Base (the “Proposed Borrowing Base Notice”) 
 (A) in the case of a Scheduled
Redetermination if the Administrative Agent shall have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.12(a) and Section 8.12(c) in a timely and
complete manner, then on or before (x) March 15, 2022 or (y) commencing October 15, 2022, April 15 and October 15 of such year, in each case, following the date of delivery or if the Administrative Agent shall not have
received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.12(a) and Section 8.12(c) in a timely and complete manner, then promptly after the Administrative
Agent has received complete Engineering Reports from the Borrower and has had a reasonable opportunity to determine the Proposed Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 2.06(c)(i); and 

(B) in the case of an Interim Redetermination, promptly, and in any event, within fifteen (15) days after the
Administrative Agent has received the required Engineering Reports. 
 (iii) Any Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing
Base then in effect must be approved or deemed to have been approved by all of the Revolving Credit Lenders as provided in this Section 2.06(c)(iii); and any Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the
Borrowing Base then in effect (not including an automatic reduction pursuant to Section 2.06(e)) must be approved or be deemed to have been approved by the Required Lenders (in each Revolving Credit Lender’s sole
discretion consistent with its normal oil and gas criteria as it exists at the particular time) as provided in this Section 2.06(c)(iii). Upon receipt of the Proposed Borrowing Base Notice, each Revolving Credit Lender
shall have fifteen (15) days to agree with the Proposed Borrowing Base or disagree with the Proposed Borrowing Base by proposing an alternate Borrowing Base. If, at the end of such fifteen (15) days, any Revolving Credit Lender has not
communicated its approval or disapproval in writing to the Administrative Agent, such silence shall be deemed to be an approval of the Proposed Borrowing Base. If, at the end of such 15-day period, all of the Revolving Credit Lenders, in the case of
a Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, or the Required Lenders, in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect, have approved or deemed to have
approved, as aforesaid, then the Proposed Borrowing Base shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in Section 2.06(d). If, however, at the end of such 15-day period, all of the Revolving Credit
Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, have not approved or deemed to have approved, as aforesaid, then the Administrative Agent shall poll the Revolving Credit Lenders to ascertain the highest Borrowing Base then acceptable to a number of
Revolving Credit Lenders sufficient to constitute the Required Lenders and, so long as such amount does not increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in
Section 2.06(d). 

  
 50 












 (d) Effectiveness of a Redetermined Borrowing Base. After a redetermined Borrowing
Base is approved or is deemed to have been approved by all of the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iii) or adjusted pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment
Provisions, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the amount of the redetermined (or adjusted) Borrowing Base (the “New Borrowing Base Notice”), and such amount shall become the new
Borrowing Base, effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Revolving Credit Lenders: 

(i) in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination, (A) if the Administrative Agent shall have received the Engineering Reports required to
be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.12(a) and Section 8.12(c) in a timely and complete manner, then on (x) April 1, 2022 or (y) commencing November 1, 2022,
May 1 or November 1 of each year as applicable, or (B) if the Administrative Agent shall not have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.12(a) and
Section 8.12(c) in a timely and complete manner, then on the Business Day next succeeding delivery of such notice; and 

(ii) in the case of an Interim Redetermination or an adjustment to the Borrowing Base pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions, on
the Business Day next succeeding delivery of such notice. 
 Such amount shall then become the Borrowing Base until the next Scheduled Redetermination Date,
the next Interim Redetermination Date or the next adjustment to the Borrowing Base pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions, whichever occurs first. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Scheduled Redetermination, Interim Redetermination or
adjusted Borrowing Base shall become effective until the New Borrowing Base Notice related thereto is received by the Borrower. 
 (e)
Adjustment for Debt Incurrence. If any Credit Party issues or incurs any Permitted Additional Debt (i) during the period from and including the Effective Date to and including the Spring 2022 Scheduled Redetermination Effective Date, and
the aggregate principal amount of all such Permitted Additional Debt incurred in such period (which, for the avoidance of doubt, excludes the 7.50% Senior Notes and the 5.00% Senior Notes) exceeds $500,000,000, then on the date of such incurrence,
the Borrowing Base then in effect shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of 0.25 multiplied by the stated principal amount of the aggregate Permitted Additional Debt (other than the 7.50% Senior Notes and the 5.00% Senior Notes) in
excess of $500,000,000 and (ii) during any period after the Spring 2022 Scheduled Redetermination Effective Date, then (A) if (1) the aggregate principal amount of all Permitted Additional Debt incurred from and after the Effective Date
(which, for the avoidance of doubt, excludes the 7.50% Senior Notes and the 5.00% Senior Notes) exceeds $500,000,000 and (2) the Borrower’s Leverage Ratio, calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such incurrence and any
concurrent repayment of Debt (as permitted by this Agreement), would be less than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00, then on the date of such incurrence, the Borrowing Base then in effect shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of 0.25 multiplied
by the stated principal amount of the aggregate Permitted Additional Debt (other than the 7.50% Senior Notes and the 5.00% Senior Notes) in excess of $500,000,000, or (B) if the Borrower’s Leverage Ratio, calculated on a pro forma basis
after giving effect to such incurrence and any concurrent repayment of Debt (as permitted by this Agreement), would be greater than 1.50 to 1.00, then on the date of such incurrence, the Borrowing Base then in effect shall be reduced by an amount
equal to the product of 0.25 multiplied by the 

  
 51 












 
stated principal amount of the aggregate Permitted Additional Debt incurred or issued at such time. In each case, the Borrowing Base as so reduced shall become the new Borrowing Base immediately
upon the date of such incurrence, effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders on such date until the next redetermination or modification thereof hereunder. For purposes of this
Section 2.06(e), if any such Permitted Additional Debt (or Guarantee thereof) is issued at a discount or otherwise sold for less than “par,” the reduction shall be calculated based upon the stated principal amount
without reference to such discount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such reduction to the Borrowing Base shall be required with respect to any Permitted Refinancing pursuant to Section 9.02(g) that refinances outstanding
Permitted Additional Debt except, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 2.06(e), with respect to any portion of the face principal amount of such Permitted Refinancing which exceeds the principal amount of
such refinanced Permitted Additional Debt (plus any accrued interest, fees, expenses and premiums of such refinanced Permitted Additional Debt). 

Section 2.07 Letters of Credit 

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Issuing Bank may (but shall not be required to) through the
Issuing Office, at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof until five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, upon the written request of the Borrower accompanied by a duly executed Letter of Credit
Agreement and such other documentation related to the requested Letter of Credit as each Issuing Bank may reasonably require, issue Letters of Credit in Dollars for the account of any Credit Party, (x) in an aggregate amount for all Letters of
Credit issued hereunder at any one time outstanding by all Issuing Banks not to exceed the Letter of Credit Maximum Amount and (y) with respect to each Issuing Bank, in an aggregate amount for all Letters of Credit issued hereunder by such
Issuing Bank at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Sublimit without the consent of such Issuing Bank. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any
obligations of, or is for the account of, any Credit Party other than the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby
acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any other Credit Party inures to the benefit of the Borrower and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such other Credit Party.
Each Letter of Credit shall be in a minimum face amount of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Issuing Bank) and each Letter of Credit (including any renewal thereof) shall expire not later than the
first to occur of (i) twelve (12) months after the date of issuance thereof or such longer time as may be approved by Issuing Bank and (ii) five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in effect on the date of
issuance thereof; provided, that any Letter of Credit meeting the immediately foregoing requirements may contain a customary “evergreen” provision relating to the renewal thereof; provided, further, to the extent the
Borrower Cash Collateralizes any other Letter of Credit at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in cases where such Letter of Credit could be automatically renewed beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date (but in no event beyond one year following the Revolving Credit Maturity Date), such Letter of Credit may contain a customary “evergreen” provision relating to the renewal thereof. The submission of all applications in respect of and
the issuance of each Letter of Credit hereunder shall be subject in all respects to the International Standby Practices 98, and any successor documentation thereto and to the extent not inconsistent 


  
 52 












 
therewith, the laws of the State of New York. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any Letter of Credit Document other than any Letter of Credit, this Agreement shall control.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing or Section 6.02(d), the Existing Specified Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued hereunder as “Letters of Credit”. 

(b) Conditions to Issuance. No Letter of Credit (other than any Existing Specified Letter of Credit) shall be issued (including the
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit previously issued) at the request and for the account of the Borrower unless, as of the date of issuance (or renewal or extension) of such Letter of Credit: 

(i) after giving effect to the Letter of Credit requested, (A) the Letter of Credit Obligations do not exceed the Letter of Credit
Maximum Amount and (B) each Issuing Bank’s individual Letter of Credit Obligations do not exceed such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Sublimit without the consent of such Issuing Bank; 

(ii) the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 have been satisfied; 

(iii) if requested by an Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall have delivered to such Issuing Bank at its Issuing Office the Letter of Credit
Agreement related thereto, together with such other documents and materials as may be reasonably required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the terms of the proposed Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank; 

(iv) no order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain Issuing
Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit requested, or any Revolving Credit Lender from taking an assignment of its Revolving Credit Percentage thereof pursuant to Section 2.07(f) hereof, and no law, rule, regulation, request
or directive (whether or not having the force of law) shall prohibit the applicable Issuing Bank from issuing, or any Revolving Credit Lender from taking an assignment of its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of, the Letter of Credit requested
or letters of credit generally; 
 (v) there shall have been (A) no introduction of or change in the interpretation of any law or
regulation, (B) no declaration of a general banking moratorium by banking authorities in the United States, New York or the respective jurisdictions in which the Revolving Credit Lenders, the Borrower and the beneficiary of the requested Letter
of Credit are located, and (C) no establishment of any new restrictions by any central bank or other Governmental Authority on transactions involving letters of credit or on banks generally that, in any case described in this
Section 2.07(b)(v), would make it unlawful or unduly burdensome for the applicable Issuing Bank to issue or any Revolving Credit Lender to take an assignment of its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the requested
Letter of Credit or letters of credit generally; 
 (vi) if any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, each Issuing Bank has
entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by any such Defaulting Lender, including, without limitation, the creation of a cash collateral
account or delivery of other security by the Borrower to assure payment of such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations; 

  
 53 












 (vii) the applicable Issuing Bank shall have received the issuance fees required in
connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.07(d); and 
 (viii) the issuance,
extension or amendment of such Letter of Credit would not violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally. 

Each Letter of Credit Agreement submitted to Issuing Bank pursuant hereto shall constitute the certification by Borrower of the matters set forth in
Section 6.02. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on such certification without any duty of inquiry. 

(c) Notice. Each Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, concurrently with or promptly following its issuance of any
Letter of Credit, a true and complete copy of each Letter of Credit. Promptly upon its receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall give notice, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit F, to each Revolving Credit
Lender of the issuance of each Letter of Credit, specifying the amount thereof and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof. 

(d) Letter of Credit Fees. 

(i) The Borrower shall pay letter of credit fees as follows: 

(A) A participation fee with respect to each Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same
Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed Letter
of Credit Payments) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Letter of Credit
Obligations, shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages, including without limitation as adjusted pursuant to
Section 4.02(b)(iii). 
 (B) A letter of credit fronting fee in the amount of 0.125% per
annum on the face amount of each Letter of Credit during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any Letter of Credit
Obligations (but in no event less than $500 per annum), shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Issuing Bank for its own account. 

(ii) All payments by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for distribution to an Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders under this
Section 2.07(d) shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Issuing Office or such other office of the Administrative Agent as may be designated from time to time by written notice to Borrower by the
Administrative Agent. The fees described in Section 2.07(d)(i)(A) and (B) above (i) accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be


  
 54 












 
payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on
which the Aggregate Maximum Commitment Amount terminates and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Aggregate Maximum Commitment Amount terminates shall be payable on demand and (ii) shall be nonrefundable under all circumstances
subject to Section 12.12. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day). 
 (e) Other Fees. In connection with the Letters of Credit, and in addition to the Letter of Credit Fees, the Borrower
shall pay, for the sole account of each Issuing Bank, standard documentation, administration, payment and cancellation charges assessed by such Issuing Bank or the Issuing Office, at the times, in the amounts and on the terms set forth or to be set
forth from time to time in the standard fee schedule of the Issuing Office in effect from time to time. 
 (f) Participation Interests in
and Drawings and Demands for Payment Under Letters of Credit. 
 (i) By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter
of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of any Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby acquires from
such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the
foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of each Letter of
Credit Payment made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (ii) below, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each
Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever,
including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default, an Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset,
abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (ii) If any Issuing Bank shall honor a draft or other demand for payment presented or
made under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower agrees to pay to such Issuing Bank an amount equal to the amount paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of such draft or other demand under such Letter of Credit and all reasonable expenses paid or
incurred by the Administrative Agent relative thereto not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time), in Dollars, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower received notice of such presentment and honor, if such notice is received prior to 11:00 a.m.
(New York time) or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower received such notice, if such notice is received after 11:00 a.m. (New York time). 

  
 55 












 (iii) If any Issuing Bank shall honor a draft or other demand for payment presented or made
under any Letter of Credit, but the Borrower does not reimburse such Issuing Bank as required under Section 2.07(f)(ii) and the Aggregate Maximum Commitment Amount has not been terminated (whether by maturity, acceleration
or otherwise), the Borrower shall be deemed to have immediately requested that the Revolving Credit Lenders make a ABR Revolving Credit Borrowing (which Borrowing may be subsequently converted at any time into a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to
Section 2.03 hereof) in the principal amount equal to the amount paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of such draft or other demand under such Letter of Credit and all reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the
Administrative Agent relative thereto. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of such deemed request, and each such Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its pro rata
share (based on its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage) of the amount of such Borrowing. 
 (iv) If any Issuing Bank shall honor a draft
or other demand for payment presented or made under any Letter of Credit, but the Borrower does not reimburse such Issuing Bank as required under Section 2.07(f)(ii), and (i) the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount has
been terminated (whether by maturity, acceleration or otherwise), or (ii) any reimbursement received by such Issuing Bank from the Borrower is or must be returned or rescinded upon or during any bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise, then the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender will be obligated to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its pro
rata share (based on its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage) of the amount paid by such Issuing Bank in respect of such draft or other demand under such Letter of Credit and all reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative
Agent relative thereto (but no such payment shall diminish the obligations of the Borrower hereunder). Upon receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a participation certificate evidencing its
participation interest in respect of such payment and expenses. To the extent that a Revolving Credit Lender fails to make such amount available to the Administrative Agent by 10:00 am New York time on the Business Day next succeeding the date such
notice is given, such Revolving Credit Lender shall pay interest on such amount in respect of each day from the date such amount was required to be paid, to the date paid to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the rate
applicable under Section 2.04(c)(i) with respect to Revolving Credit Borrowings. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make its pro rata portion of any such amount available under to the Administrative Agent
shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation to make available its pro rata portion of such amount, but no Revolving Credit Lender shall be responsible for failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make such
pro rata portion available to the Administrative Agent. 
 (v) In the case of any Borrowing made under this
Section 2.07(f), each such Borrowing shall be disbursed notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any conditions for disbursement of any Borrowing set forth in Article II hereof or Article VI, and, to the extent
of the Borrowing so disbursed, the Reimbursement Obligation of Borrower to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.07(f) shall be deemed satisfied (unless, in each case, taking into account any such deemed Borrowings,
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Borrowings, plus the Letter of Credit Obligations (other than the Reimbursement Obligations to be reimbursed by this Borrowing) on such date exceed the least of the Borrowing
Base, the then applicable Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount or the then applicable Elected Loan Limit). 

  
 56 












 (vi) If any Issuing Bank shall honor a draft or other demand for payment presented or made
under any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall provide notice thereof to the Borrower on the date such draft or demand is honored, and to each Revolving Credit Lender on such date unless the Borrower shall have satisfied its Reimbursement
Obligations by payment to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of such Issuing Bank) as required under this Section 2.07(f). Each Issuing Bank shall further use reasonable efforts to provide notice to the Borrower
prior to honoring any such draft or other demand for payment, but such notice, or the failure to provide such notice, shall not affect the rights or obligations of any Issuing Bank with respect to any Letter of Credit or the rights and obligations
of the parties hereto, including without limitation the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.07(f). 

(vii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have acquired a participation in a Letter of
Credit if the officers of the applicable Issuing Bank immediately responsible for matters concerning this Agreement shall have received written notice from the Administrative Agent or any Lender at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date
of the issuance or extension of such Letter of Credit or, with respect to any Letter of Credit subject to automatic extension, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date that the beneficiary under such Letter of Credit must be notified
that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed, that the issuance or extension of Letters of Credit should be suspended based on the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”; provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have acquired such a participation upon the date on which such Default or Event of Default has been waived by the requisite Revolving Credit
Lenders, as applicable, but effective as of the extension or issuance date. 
 (viii) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to
require or authorize any Revolving Credit Lender to issue any Letter of Credit, it being recognized that the Issuing Banks shall be the sole issuers of Letters of Credit under this Agreement. 

(ix) In the event that any Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, any Issuing Bank may, at its option, require that the Borrower
enter into arrangements satisfactory to such Issuing Bank to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by such Defaulting Lender, including creation of a cash collateral account or delivery of
other security to assure payment of such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations. 

(g) Obligations Irrevocable. The obligations of the Borrower to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing
Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations under Section 2.07(f), shall be unconditional and irrevocable and not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever, including,
without limitation: 
 (i) Any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement, any other
documentation relating to any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (the “Letter of Credit Documents”); 

  
 57 












 (ii) Any amendment, modification, waiver, consent, or any substitution, exchange or release
of or failure to perfect any interest in collateral or security, with respect to or under any Letter of Credit Document; 
 (iii) The
existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be
acting), the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Credit Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any of the Letter of Credit Documents, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any
unrelated transactions; 
 (iv) Any draft or other statement or document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (v) Payment by the
applicable Issuing Bank to the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit against presentation of documents which do not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to
such Letter of Credit; 
 (vi) Any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Revolving Credit Lender or any party to any of the Letter of Credit Documents or any other Loan Document to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred upon the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Revolving Credit Lender
or any such party under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Letter of Credit Documents, or any other acts or omissions on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Revolving Credit Lender or any such
party; or 
 (vii) Any other event or circumstance that would, in the absence of this Section 2.07(g), result in
the release or discharge by operation of law or otherwise of the Borrower from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in Section 2.07(f). 

No setoff, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any obligation or any defense of any kind or nature which the Borrower has or may have against the
beneficiary of any Letter of Credit shall be available hereunder to the Borrower against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Credit Lender. With respect to any Letter of Credit, nothing contained in this
Section 2.07(g) shall be deemed to prevent the Borrower, after satisfaction in full of the absolute and unconditional obligations of the Borrower hereunder with respect to such Letter of Credit, from asserting in a separate
action any claim, defense, set off or other right which it may have against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Credit Lender in connection with such Letter of Credit. 

(h) Risk Under Letters of Credit. 

(i) In the administration and handling of Letters of Credit and any security therefor, or any documents or instruments given in connection
therewith, the Issuing Banks shall have the sole right to take or refrain from taking any and all actions under or upon the Letters of Credit. 

  
 58 












 (ii) Subject to other terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Issuing Bank shall issue
the Letters of Credit and shall hold the documents related thereto in its own name and shall make all collections thereunder and otherwise administer the applicable Letters of Credit in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s regularly established
practices and procedures and will have no further obligation with respect thereto. In the administration of Letters of Credit, each Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted on the advice of counsel, accountants, appraisers or
other experts selected by such Issuing Bank with due care and such Issuing Bank may rely upon any notice, communication, certificate or other statement from the Borrower, beneficiaries of Letters of Credit, or any other Person which such Issuing
Bank believes to be authentic. Each Issuing Bank will, upon request, furnish the Revolving Credit Lenders with copies of Letter of Credit Documents related thereto. 

(iii) In connection with the issuance and administration of Letters of Credit and the assignments hereunder, the Issuing Banks make no
representation and shall have no responsibility with respect to (i) the obligations of the Borrower or the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any document or instrument given in connection therewith, or the taking of any action with
respect to same, (ii) the financial condition of, any representations made by, or any act or omission of the Borrower or any other Person, or (iii) any failure or delay in exercising any rights or powers possessed by any Issuing Bank in
its capacity as issuer of Letters of Credit in the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each of the Revolving Credit Lenders expressly acknowledges that it has made and will continue to make its own evaluations of the
Borrower’s creditworthiness without reliance on any representation of any Issuing Bank or any Issuing Bank’s officers, agents and employees. 

(iv) If at any time any Issuing Bank shall recover any part of any unreimbursed amount for any draw or other demand for payment under a Letter
of Credit, or any interest thereon, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall receive same for the pro rata benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolving Credit
Percentages and shall promptly deliver to each Revolving Credit Lender its share thereof, less such Revolving Credit Lender’s pro rata share of the costs of such recovery, including court costs and attorney’s fees. If at any time
any Revolving Credit Lender shall receive from any source whatsoever any payment on any such unreimbursed amount or interest thereon in excess of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of such payment, such
Revolving Credit Lender will promptly pay over such excess to the Administrative Agent, for redistribution in accordance with this Agreement. 

  
 59 












 (i) Indemnification. The Borrower hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless the
Revolving Credit Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of such Persons (each an “L/C Indemnified Person”), from and
against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which the Revolving Credit Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent or any such Person may incur or which may be claimed
against any of them by reason of or in connection with any Letter of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Indemnified Amounts”), and none of the L/C Indemnified Persons shall be liable or responsible for: 

(i) the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or for any acts or omissions of any beneficiary in connection therewith; 

(ii) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in
any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; 
 (iii) payment by any Issuing Bank to the beneficiary under any Letter of
Credit against presentation of documents which do not strictly comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit (unless such payment resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank), including failure of any documents to
bear any reference or adequate reference to such Letter of Credit; 
 (iv) any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission,
dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit; or 
 (v) any other event or
circumstance whatsoever arising in connection with any Letter of Credit. 
 It is understood that in making any payment under a Letter of Credit, the
applicable Issuing Bank will rely on documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein without further investigation and regardless of any notice or information to the contrary. 

With respect to subparagraphs (i) through (v), (A) the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any L/C Indemnified
Person for any L/C Indemnified Amounts to the extent such amounts result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such L/C Indemnified Person or any officer, director, employee or agent of such L/C Indemnified Person as determined by a
final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction and (B) the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrower to the extent, but only to the extent, of
any direct, as opposed to consequential or incidental, damages suffered by the Borrower which were caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any L/C Indemnified Person or by such Issuing Bank’s wrongful dishonor of any Letter of
Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary thereunder of a draft or other demand for payment and other documentation strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (j) Right of Reimbursement. Each
Revolving Credit Lender agrees to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank on demand, pro rata in accordance with its respective Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, for (i) the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Issuing Bank to be reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to any Letter of Credit Agreement or any Letter of Credit, to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries and (ii) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, fees, reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or 

  
 60 












 
arising out of this Agreement (including Section 2.07(f)(iii) hereof), any Letter of Credit, any documentation or any transaction relating thereto, or any Letter of
Credit Agreement, to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower, except to the extent that such liabilities, losses, costs or expenses were incurred by such Issuing Bank as a result of such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct
or by such Issuing Bank’s wrongful dishonor of any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary thereunder of a draft or other demand for payment and other documentation strictly complying with the terms and conditions of
such Letter of Credit, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and
be binding upon the parties hereto. 
 Section 3.03 Prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans 

(a) Optional Prepayments. Subject to any break funding costs payable pursuant to Section 5.02, the Borrower
shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Revolving Credit Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 3.03(b). 

(b) Notice and Terms of Optional Prepayment. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of
any prepayment hereunder in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Revolving Credit Borrowing, not later than 12:00 p.m., New York time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, and in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving

shall advise the Revolving Credit Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Credit Borrowing of the same Type as
provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by
Section 3.02. 
 (c) Mandatory Prepayments. 

(i) If, after giving effect to any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to
Section 2.05(b) or reduction of the Elected Loan Limit pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(i), the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds the total Commitments, then the Borrower shall prepay the
Revolving Credit Borrowings on the date of such termination or reduction in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Revolving Credit Borrowings as a result of Letter of Credit
Obligations, Cash Collateralize such excess in an amount equal to the greater of (A) the amount of such Letter of Credit Obligations and (B) the maximum amount that may be available to be drawn at any time prior to the stated expiry of all
outstanding Letters of Credit. 

  
 62 












 (ii) (A) Upon any Scheduled Redetermination or Interim Redetermination or other
adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 8.13(c) if the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds the redetermined Borrowing Base and the Administrative Agent sends a New Borrowing Base Notice to the Borrower
indicating such Borrowing Base Deficiency (each, a “Borrowing Base Deficiency Notice”), then the Borrower shall within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such Borrowing Base Deficiency Notice elect whether to
(1) prepay the Revolving Credit Borrowings an amount which would, if prepaid immediately, reduce the total Revolving Credit Exposures to the amount of the Borrowing Base, (2) execute one or more Security Instruments (or cause a Subsidiary
to execute one or more Security Instruments) covering such other Oil and Gas Properties as are reasonably acceptable to the Majority Lenders having present values which, in the reasonable opinion of the Majority Lenders, based upon the Majority
Lenders’ good-faith evaluation of the engineering data provided them, taken in the aggregate are sufficient to increase the Borrowing Base to an amount at least equal to the total Revolving Credit Exposures, or (3) do any combination of
the foregoing. If the Borrower fails to make an election within such ten (10) Business Day period after the Borrower’s receipt of the Borrowing Base Deficiency Notice, then Borrower shall be deemed to have selected the prepayment option
specified in clause (1) above. To the extent any prepayment of Revolving Credit Borrowings is required hereunder, if any excess of total Revolving Credit Exposures over the Borrowing Base then in effect remains after
prepaying all Revolving Credit Borrowings as a result of Letter of Credit Obligations, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize such excess in an amount equal to the greater of (x) the amount of such Letter of Credit Obligations and (y) the
maximum amount that may be available to be drawn at any time prior to the stated expiry of all outstanding Letters of Credit. 

(B) The Borrower shall deliver such prepayments or Security Instruments covering additional Oil and Gas Properties in
accordance with its election (or deemed election) pursuant to Section 3.03(c)(ii)(A) as follows: 

(1) Prepayment Elections. If the Borrower elects to prepay an amount in accordance with
Section 3.03(c)(ii)(A)(1) above, then the Borrower may make such prepayment in three (3) equal consecutive monthly installments beginning within thirty (30) days after Borrower’s receipt of the Borrowing Base
Deficiency Notice and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter; provided that all payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(ii)(B)(1) must be made on or prior to the Termination Date.

 (2) Elections to Mortgage Additional Oil and Gas Properties. If the Borrower elects to mortgage additional Oil and
Gas Properties in accordance with Section 3.03(c)(ii)(A)(2) above, then (I) such properties shall be reasonably acceptable to the Majority Lenders having present values which, in the reasonable opinion of the Majority
Lenders, based upon the Majority Lenders’ good-faith evaluation of the engineering data provided them, taken in the aggregate are sufficient to increase the Borrowing Base to an amount at least equal to the total


  
 63 












 
Revolving Credit Exposures, and (II) the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrative Agent one or more Security Instruments within thirty
(30) days after the Borrower’s receipt of the Borrowing Base Deficiency Notice (or such longer time as determined by the Administrative Agent); provided, however (x) if none of the additional Oil and Gas Properties
offered by the Borrower are reasonably acceptable to the Majority Lenders, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected the prepayment option specified in Section 3.03(c)(ii)(A)(1) (and Borrower shall make such prepayment
in accordance with Section 3.03(c)(ii)(B)(1)); and (y) if the aggregate present values of additional Oil and Gas Properties which are reasonably acceptable to the Majority Lenders are insufficient to eliminate the
Borrowing Base Deficiency, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected the option specified in Section 3.03(c)(ii)(A)(3) (and the Borrower shall make prepayment and deliver or cause to be delivered one or more
Security Instruments as provided in Section 3.03(c)(ii)(B)(3)). Together with such Security Instruments, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent title opinions and/or other title information and data
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent shall have received, together with the title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, reasonably satisfactory title information on at least
ninety percent (90%) of the total value of the Proved Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by the most recent Reserve Report and which are required to be Mortgaged Properties hereunder. 

(3) Combination Elections. If the Borrower elects (or is deemed to have elected) to eliminate the Borrowing Base
Deficiency by a combination of prepayment and mortgaging of additional Oil and Gas Properties in accordance with Section 3.03(c)(ii)(A)(3), then within thirty (30) days after the Borrower’s receipt of the
Borrowing Base Deficiency Notice (or such longer time as determined by the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall (or shall cause a Subsidiary to) execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrative Agent one or more Security Instruments
covering such additional Oil and Gas Properties and pay the Administrative Agent the amount by which the Borrowing Base Deficiency exceeds the present values of such additional Oil and Gas Properties in three (3) equal consecutive monthly
installments beginning within thirty (30) days after Borrower’s receipt of the Borrowing Base Deficiency Notice and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter; provided that all payments required to be made pursuant to this
Section 3.03(c)(ii)(B)(3) must be made on or prior to the Termination Date. 
 (iii) Upon any adjustment to the
Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 9.10 or pursuant to Section 2.06(e), if the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the Borrowing Base as adjusted, then the Borrower shall prepay the Revolving
Credit Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Revolving Credit Borrowings as a result of Letter of Credit Obligations, Cash Collateralize such excess in an amount equal
to the greater of (A) the amount of such Letter of Credit Obligations and (B) the maximum amount that may be available to be drawn at any time prior to the stated expiry of all outstanding Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall be obligated
to make such prepayment and/or Cash Collateralize such excess on the second (2nd) Business Day after it receives the applicable New Borrowing Base Notice in accordance with
Section 2.06(d); provided that all payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(iii) must be made on or prior to the Termination Date. 

  
 64 












 (iv) Each prepayment of Revolving Credit Borrowings pursuant to this
Section 3.03(c) shall be applied, first, ratably to any ABR Revolving Credit Borrowings then outstanding, and second, to any Eurodollar Revolving Credit Borrowings then outstanding, and if more than one
Eurodollar Revolving Credit Borrowing is then outstanding, to each such Eurodollar Revolving Credit Borrowing in order of priority beginning with the Eurodollar Revolving Credit Borrowing with the least number of days remaining in the Interest
Period applicable thereto and ending with the Eurodollar Revolving Credit Borrowing with the most number of days remaining in the Interest Period applicable thereto; provided, however, if any excess remains after the prepayment of all
Revolving Credit Borrowings and after the Borrower Cash Collateralizes all Letter of Credit Obligations or outstanding Letters of Credit, such excess shall be prepaid by the Borrower. 

(v) Each prepayment of Revolving Credit Borrowings pursuant to this Section 3.03(c) shall be accompanied by accrued
interest on the amount prepaid to the extent required by Section 3.02. 
 (d) No Premium or Penalty.
Prepayments permitted or required under this Section 3.03 shall be without premium or penalty, except as required under Section 5.02. 

(e) Additional Mandatory Prepayments – Application in Connection with Consolidated Cash Balance. If, at the end of the first
Business Day of any week, the Consolidated Cash Balance exceeds $75,000,000, then the Borrower shall, on the next Business Day, prepay the Revolving Credit Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess. Each prepayment of
Revolving Credit Borrowings pursuant to this Section 3.03(e) shall be applied in the same manner as set forth in Section 3.03(c)(iv) and shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount
prepaid to the extent required by Section 3.02. 
 Section 3.04 Fees 

(a) Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment
fee, which shall accrue at the applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the actual daily amount of the undrawn Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to but excluding the Termination Date
(such fee, the “Commitment Fee”). Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December of each year (with respect to the preceding three months or portion thereof) and on
the Termination Date (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand), commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. If there is any change in the Commitment of any Revolving Credit Lender during any such three-month period, the actual
daily amount of the Commitment shall be computed and multiplied by the Commitment Fee Rate separately for each period during such three-month period such Commitment was in effect. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360
days, unless such computation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the
first day and the last day of each period but excluding the date on which the Commitments terminate). 

  
 65 












 (b) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times set forth in the Fee Letter. 
 ARTICLE IV 

PAYMENTS; PRO RATA TREATMENT; SHARING OF SET-OFFS 

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

(a) Payment Procedure. 

(i) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.
Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments made by the Borrower of principal, interest or fees hereunder shall be made without setoff or counterclaim on the date specified for payment under this Agreement and must be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date such payment is required or intended to be made in Dollars in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office located at 270
Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders in the case of payments in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans and any Letter of Credit Obligations. Any payment received by the Administrative
Agent after 1:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Upon receipt of each such payment, the Administrative Agent shall make prompt payment to
each applicable Lender, or, in respect of Eurodollar Borrowing, such Lender’s Eurodollar Lending Office, in like funds and currencies, of all amounts received by it for the account of such Lender. 

(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date
on which any payment to be made by the Borrower is due that the Borrower does not intend to remit such payment, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion and without obligation to do so, assume that the Borrower has remitted such payment
when so due and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each Revolving Credit Lender, as the case may be, on such payment date an amount equal to such Lender’s share of such assumed payment. If the
Borrower has not in fact remitted such payment to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available or transferred to such Lender, together with the
interest thereon, in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to the
NYFRB Rate for the first two (2) Business Days that such amount remains unpaid, and thereafter at a rate of interest then applicable to such Borrowings. 

(iii) Subject to the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.02 of this Agreement, whenever any
payment to be made hereunder shall otherwise be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest, if any, in connection with
such payment. 

  
 66 












 (b) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are
received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Reimbursement Obligations, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied 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 second, towards payment of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due to such parties. 
 (c)
Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or
participations in Reimbursement Obligations resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in Reimbursement Obligations and accrued interest thereon than the proportion
received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in Reimbursement Obligations of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the
benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in Reimbursement Obligations; provided that if any
such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and the provisions of
this Section 4.01(c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Reimbursement Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this
Section 4.01(c) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements
may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 Section 4.02 Deductions by the Administrative Agent; Defaulting Lender 

(a) Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.04(a), Section 2.07(f) or Section 4.02, then the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any
amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid or (ii) hold any such amounts in a
segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender hereunder, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion. 

  
 67 












 (b) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(i) The obligation of any Lender to make any Loan hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan under
this Agreement, and no Lender shall have any liability to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, any other Lender, or any other Person for another Lender’s failure to make any loan or Loan hereunder. 

(ii) If any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, then such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the
loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation any right to vote in respect of any amendment, consent or waiver of the terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Documents, or to direct or approve any action or
inaction by the Administrative Agent shall be suspended for the entire period that such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender and the stated commitment amounts and outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether
all Lenders, the Required Lenders (or any class thereof) or the Majority Lenders (or any class thereof), as the case may be, have taken or may take any action hereunder (including, without limitation, any action to approve any consent, waiver or
amendment to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not permit (A) an increase in such Defaulting Lender’s stated commitment amounts, (B) the waiver, forgiveness or
reduction of the principal amount of any Obligations outstanding to such Defaulting Lender (unless all other Lenders affected thereby are treated similarly), (C) the extension of the final maturity date(s) of such Defaulting Lenders’ portion of
any of the loans or other extensions of credit or other obligations of the Borrower owing to such Defaulting Lender, in each case without such Defaulting Lender’s consent, (D) any other modification which under
Section 12.02 requires the consent of all Lenders or Lender(s) affected thereby which affects the Defaulting Lender differently than the Non-Defaulting Lenders affected by such
modification, other than a change to or waiver of the requirements of Section 4.01(b) which results in a reduction of the Defaulting Lender’s commitment or its share of the Obligations on a non-pro-rata basis. 
 (iii) All or any part of such Defaulting
Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages (calculated without
regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a
Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 

(iv) To the extent and for so long as a Lender remains a Defaulting Lender and notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 4.01(b), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, without limitation, (A) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of those obligations for payment (and any related interest) in respect of which
the Defaulting Lender shall be delinquent or otherwise in default to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or to hold as cash 

  
 68 












 
collateral for such delinquent obligations or any future defaults) the amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (B) if the amount
of Loans made by such Defaulting Lender is less than its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, as the case may be, requires, apply payments of principal made by the Borrower amongst the Non-Defaulting
Lenders on a pro rata basis until all outstanding Loans are held by all Lenders according to their respective Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages, and (C) to bring an action or other proceeding, in law or equity, against such
Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the delinquent amounts, and any related interest. Performance by the Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise
modified as a result of the operation of this Section, except to the extent expressly set forth herein and in any event the Borrower shall not be required to pay any Commitment Fee under Section 3.04(a) of this Agreement in
respect of such Defaulting Lender’s Unfunded Portion for the period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender. Furthermore, the rights and remedies of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders against
a Defaulting Lender under this section shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies such parties may have against the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise, and the Borrower
waives no rights or remedies against any Defaulting Lender. 
 Section 4.03 Disposition of Proceeds The Security Instruments
contain an assignment by the Borrower and/or the Guarantors unto and in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties of all of the Borrower’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, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that they will neither notify the purchaser or purchasers
of such production nor take any other action to cause such proceeds to be remitted to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, but the Lenders will instead permit such proceeds to be paid to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the Lenders hereby
authorize the Administrative Agent to take such actions as may be necessary to cause such proceeds to be paid to the Borrower and/or such Subsidiaries. 

ARTICLE V 

INCREASED COSTS; REIMBURSEMENT OF PREPAYMENT COSTS; 

TAXES; LIBO RATE AVAILABILITY 

Section 5.01 Increased Costs 

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

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

  
 69 












 (ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or 

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in
clauses (a) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves,
other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other
Recipient of making, continuing, converting or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender,
such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

 (b) Capital Adequacy and Other Increased Costs. 

(i) If, after the Effective Date, the adoption or introduction of, or any change in any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation (whether
domestic or foreign) now or hereafter in effect and whether or not presently applicable to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or the Administrative Agent with any guideline, request or directive of any such authority (whether or not having the force of law), including any risk based capital guidelines (each, a
“Change in Law”), affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required to be maintained by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or any corporation controlling such Lender or the Administrative Agent) and such
Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s obligations or Borrowings hereunder
and such increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s (or such controlling corporation’s) capital as a consequence of such obligations or Borrowings hereunder to a level below
that which such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or such controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) (collectively, “Increased
Costs”), then the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall notify the Borrower, and thereafter the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, within ten (10) Business Days of written demand
therefor from such Lender or the Administrative Agent, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or such controlling corporation) for any increase in the amount of capital or liquidity and reduced rate of
return which such Lender or the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s obligations or Borrowings hereunder. A statement setting forth the amount of such
compensation, the methodology for the calculation and the calculation thereof which shall also be prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by such Lender or the 

  
 70 












 
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall be submitted by such Lender or by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, reasonably promptly after becoming aware of any event described in this
Section 5.01(b) and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct, absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all
requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on banking Supervision (or
any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law” regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. 

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any increased costs under
Sections 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) for any period ending prior to the date that is two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the making of a Lender’s initial request for such additional amounts unless the applicable
Change in Law or other event resulting in such increased costs is effective retroactively to a date more than two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the date of such request, in which case a Lender’s request for such additional amounts
relating to the period more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the making of the request must be given not more than two hundred seventy (270) days after such Lender becomes aware of the applicable Change in Law or other event
resulting in such increased costs. 
 Section 5.02 Reimbursement of Prepayment Costs If (a) the Borrower makes any payment
of principal with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (whether voluntarily, pursuant to any mandatory provisions hereof, by acceleration, or otherwise); (b) the Borrower
converts or refunds (or attempts to convert or refund) any such Borrowing or Loan on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto; (c) the Borrower fails to borrow, refund or convert any Eurodollar Borrowing after
notice has been given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof requesting such Borrowing or Loan; or (d) or if the Borrower fails to make any payment of principal in respect of a Eurodollar Borrowing when
due, the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for itself and/or on behalf of any Lender, as the case may be, within ten (10) Business Days of written demand therefor for any resulting loss, cost or expense incurred (excluding the
loss of any Applicable Margin) by the Administrative Agent and Lenders, as the case may be, as a result thereof, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost or expense incurred in obtaining, liquidating, employing or redeploying deposits from
third parties, whether or not the Administrative Agent and Lenders, as the case may be, shall have funded or committed to fund such Borrowing or Loan. The amount payable hereunder by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for itself and/or on
behalf of any Lender, as the case may be, shall be deemed to equal an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, refunded or converted, for the period
from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, refund or convert, through the last day of the relevant Interest Period, at the applicable rate of interest for said Borrowing(s) or Loans(s) provided under this Agreement, over
(ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, as the case may be) which would have accrued to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, as the case may be, on such amount by placing such
amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurocurrency market. Calculation of any amounts payable to any Lender under this paragraph shall be made as though 

  
 71 












 
such Lender shall have actually funded or committed to fund the relevant Borrowing or Loan through the purchase of an underlying deposit in an amount equal to the amount of such Borrowing or Loan
and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that any Lender may fund any Eurodollar Borrowing in any manner it deems fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purpose of
the calculation of amounts payable under this paragraph. 
 The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting
forth the basis for determining such losses, costs and expenses, which certificate shall be conclusively presumed correct, absent manifest error. 

Section 5.03 Taxes 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Withholding Agent under any Loan Document
shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if any Credit Party shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then the sum payable by the Credit Parties shall be
increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.03), the
Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, the Withholding Agent shall make such deductions or withholdings and the Withholding
Agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b)
Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower or Guarantors. The Borrower or Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent,
timely reimburse it for such Other Taxes. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Borrower, Guarantors and Lenders. 

(i) The Borrower or Guarantors, as applicable, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after
written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or Guarantors, as
applicable, hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.03) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender as to the amount of such payment or liability under this
Section 5.03 shall be delivered to the Borrower or Guarantors, as applicable, and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 72 












 (ii) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten
(10) days after demand therefor, for (A) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting
the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), (B) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.04(b)(viii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and
(C) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source
against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 5.03(c)(ii). 
 (d) Evidence of
Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Credit Parties to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) Status of Lenders. 

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

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a “United States person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, 
 (A) any Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Withholding Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent),
executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

  
 73 












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

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

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a
“10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or 

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form
W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are
claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
and 
 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Withholding Agent (in
such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent),
executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by
applicable law to permit the Withholding Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

  
 74 












 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or
becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Withholding Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(f) Administrative Agent. On or before the date on which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (and any successor or replacement Administrative
Agent) becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder, it shall deliver to the Borrower two duly executed originals of either (i) IRS Form W-9, or (ii) IRS Form
W-8ECI (with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf) and IRS Form W-8IMY (for all other payments), establishing that the Borrower can make payments to
the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States, including Taxes imposed under FATCA. 

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

(ii) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Credit Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). 
 (h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative
Agent or a Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or any Guarantor or with respect to which the Borrower or any Guarantor has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.03, it shall pay to the Borrower or any Guarantor, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid,
by the Borrower or any Guarantor under this Section 5.03 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this
paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to
indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the 

  
 75 












 
indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax
returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (i)
Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.03 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the
termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 
 (j) Defined
Terms. For purposes of this Section 5.03, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 

Section 5.04 Mitigation Obligations; Designation of Different Lending Office If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.03, then such Lender shall
use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.03, as the case may be, in the future and would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed
cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

 
 Section 5.05 Replacement of Lenders If (a) any Lender
requests compensation under Section 5.01, (b) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 5.03, (c) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (d) any Lender fails to provide its consent to increase or maintain the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iii) and the
Required Lenders have provided their consent to increase or maintain the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iii) or (e) any Lender fails to approve a proposed waiver, consent or amendment which has been
approved by the Majority Lenders, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of clause (d) above, within thirty (30) days of the
effectiveness of the redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.06(d)), require, in the case of clauses (a) through (c) above, such Lender (and, in the case of
clause (d) above, within thirty (30) days of the effectiveness of the redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.06(d)) to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.04(a)), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if
a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender
shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in Reimbursement Obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the
extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting 

  
 76 












 
from a claim for compensation under Section 5.01 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.03, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if such Lender (or its Affiliate) is a Secured Swap Party with any
outstanding Secured Swap Agreement, unless on or prior thereto, all such Swap Agreements have been terminated or novated to another Person and such Lender (or its Affiliate) shall have received payment of all amounts, if any, payable to it in
connection with such termination or novation. 
 Section 5.06 Laws Affecting LIBO Rate Availability If, after the date of this
Agreement, the adoption or introduction of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Eurodollar Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or
any of their respective Eurodollar Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any Loan which bears interest at or by reference to the LIBO Rate, such Lender shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and to the
Administrative Agent. Thereafter, (a) the obligations of the applicable Lenders to make Loans which bear interest at or by reference to the LIBO Rate and the right of the Borrower to convert a Borrowing into or refund a Borrowing as a Borrowing
which bears interest at or by reference to the LIBO Rate shall be suspended and thereafter only the Alternate Base Rate shall be available, and (b) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain a Borrowing which bears interest at
or by reference to the LIBO Rate, the applicable Borrowing shall immediately be converted to a Borrowing which bears interest at or by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. For purposes of this Section 5.06, a Change in Law
or any change in rule, regulation, interpretation or administration shall include, without limitation, any change made or which becomes effective on the basis of a law, rule, regulation, interpretation or administration presently in force, the
effective date of which change is delayed by the terms of such law, rule, regulation, interpretation or administration. 
 Section 5.07
Eurodollar Lending Office For any Eurodollar Loan, if the Administrative Agent or a Lender, as applicable, shall designate a Eurodollar Lending Office which maintains books separate from those of the rest of the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall have the option of maintaining and carrying the relevant Loan on the books of such Eurodollar Lending Office. 

Section 5.08 Right of Lenders to Fund through Branches and Affiliates Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment as
to any Borrowing hereunder by designating a branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Borrowing; provided that (a) such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performances of its obligations hereunder and (b) no such
designation shall result in any increased costs to Borrower. 

  
 77 












 Section 5.09 Alternate Rate of Interest 

(a) Inability to Determine Rates. Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of
this Section 5.09 and Section 5.06, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: 

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do
not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable (including, without limitation, because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period; provided that no
Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or 
 (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that the
Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy, electronic mail or fax as promptly as
practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Revolving Credit Borrowing Request that requests the conversion of any
Revolving Credit Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Credit Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (B) if any Revolving Credit Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as
an ABR Borrowing. 
 (b) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document
(provided that any Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 5.09), if a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in
Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (i) if a Benchmark Replacement is
determined in accordance with clause (a) or (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and
under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) if a Benchmark
Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (c) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and
under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or
further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the
Majority Lenders. 
 (c) Term SOFR Transition Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and
subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable


  
 78 












 
Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without
any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders
and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion. 

(d) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent
will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will
become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 (e) Notices;
Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any
determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 5.09, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate
or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent
manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this
Section 5.09. 
 (f) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBO Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such
Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such
Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for
any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is
subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a
Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 

  
 79 












 (g) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of
the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period
and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is
not an Available Tenor, the component of Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Alternate Base Rate. 

Section 5.10 Interest Rates; LIBOR Notifications.    The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by
reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London
interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any
successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be
available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or
alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other
Benchmark Rate Election, Section 5.09(b) and (c) provide the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to
Section 5.09(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any
liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate
thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (a) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 5.09(b) or (c), whether upon the occurrence of a
Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, and (b) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant
to Section 5.09(d)) including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic
equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

its business as now conducted, and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where failure to have such licenses, authorizations, consents, approvals and/or

 85 












 
of the Credit Parties or any other Person, in order to ensure the due authorization of the Transactions). Each Loan Document to which a Credit Party is a party has been duly executed and
delivered by such Credit Party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting
creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

Section 7.03 Approvals; No Conflicts The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing
with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any other third Person, nor is any such consent, approval, registration, filing or other action necessary for the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or the consummation of the
Transactions, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect other than the recording and filing of the Security Instruments as required by this Agreement and those approvals or consents which, if not made or obtained,
would not cause a Default hereunder or would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (b) will not violate or result in a default under any Existing Secured Swap Agreement listed on Schedule 1.5, indenture,

Property and all agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its Property, and possesses all licenses, permits, franchises, exemptions, approvals and other governmental authorizations necessary for the ownership of its Property and the
conduct of its business, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) No Credit Party is in default and no event or circumstance has occurred which, but for the expiration of any applicable grace period or the
giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default or would require any Credit Party to Redeem or make any offer to Redeem under any indenture, note, credit agreement or instrument pursuant to which any Material Indebtedness is outstanding or by
which any Credit Party or any of their Properties is bound. 
 (c) No Default has occurred and is continuing.

 99 












 
Person against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or their Properties, in each case in connection with any Environmental Laws, the Borrower will within fifteen (15) days after any

fully covered by insurance, subject to normal deductibles. 
 Section 8.11 Further Assurances 

(a) The Borrower at its sole expense will, and will cause each other Credit Party to, promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent
all such other documents, agreements and instruments reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to comply with, cure any defects or accomplish the covenants and agreements of any Credit Party, as the case may be, in the Loan Documents,
including the Notes, or to further evidence and more fully describe the collateral intended as security for the Obligations, or to correct any omissions in this Agreement or the Security Instruments, or to state more fully the obligations secured

necessary or appropriate, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, in connection therewith. 
 (b) The Borrower hereby authorizes
the Administrative Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property without the signature of any Credit Party where permitted by law. A carbon, photographic

 100 












 (b) In the event of an Interim Redetermination, the Borrower shall furnish to the
Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders a Reserve Report prepared by Borrower’s internal reserve engineering staff, which shall certify such Reserve Report to be true and accurate in all material respects (with appropriate
exceptions for projections and cost estimates) and to have been prepared in accordance with the procedures used in the immediately preceding December 31 Reserve Report. For any Interim Redetermination requested by the Administrative Agent or
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.06(b), the Borrower shall provide such Reserve Report with an “as of” date as required by the Administrative Agent as soon as possible, but in any event no later than thirty
(30) days following the receipt of such request. 
 (c) With the delivery of each Reserve Report, the Borrower shall provide to the
Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders a certificate from a Responsible Officer (i) certifying that (A) the information contained in the Reserve Report and any other information delivered in connection therewith is true and
correct, (B) each Credit Party owns good and defensible title to the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report and such Properties are free and clear of all Liens except for Permitted Liens, (C) except as set forth on an
exhibit to the certificate, there are no Material Gas Imbalances with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report, (D) none of their Proved Oil and Gas Properties have been sold since the date of the last Borrowing
Base determination except as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate, which certificate shall list all such Oil and Gas Properties sold and attached thereto is a schedule of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report that are
Mortgaged Properties and (E) attached thereto is a list of all marketing agreements entered into subsequent to the later of the date hereof or the most recently delivered certificate delivered under this
Section 8.12(c) which the Borrower would reasonably be expected to have been obligated to list on Schedule 7.18 had such agreement been in effect on the date hereof and (ii) demonstrating the
percentage of the total value of the Proved Oil and Gas Properties that the value of such Mortgaged Properties represents in compliance with Section 8.14(a). 

Section 8.13 Title Information 

(a) Within thirty (30) days after the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders of each Reserve Report
required by Section 8.12(a), the Borrower will deliver title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent covering enough of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report
that were not included in the immediately preceding Reserve Report, so that the Administrative Agent shall have received together with title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, reasonably satisfactory title information on
at least (i) ninety percent (90%) of the total value of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report and (ii) ninety percent (90%) of the total value of the Oil and Gas Properties that are classified as proved developed
nonproducing reserves and proved developed producing reserves evaluated by such Reserve Report. 
 (b) If the Borrower has provided title
information for additional Properties under Section 8.13(a), the Borrower shall, within sixty (60) days after notice from the Administrative Agent that title defects or exceptions exist with respect to such additional
Properties, either (i) cure any such title defects or exceptions (including defects or exceptions as to priority) which are not Permitted Liens raised by such information, (ii) substitute acceptable Mortgaged Properties with no title
defects or exceptions except for Excepted Liens (other than Excepted Liens described in clauses (e) and (j) of such definition) having an aggregate equivalent value or (iii) deliver title information in
form and substance reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent so that the Administrative Agent shall have received, together with title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, satisfactory title information to comply with
Section 8.13(a). 

  
 101 












 (c) If the Borrower is unable to cure any title defect requested by the Administrative Agent
or the Lenders to be cured within the 60-day period or the Borrower does not comply with the requirements to provide reasonably acceptable title information provided for in Section 8.13(a), such default shall not be a
Default or Event of Default, but instead the Administrative Agent and/or the Required Lenders shall have the right to exercise the following remedy in their sole discretion from time to time, and any failure to so exercise this remedy at any time
shall not be a waiver as to future exercise of the remedy by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders: such unacceptable Mortgaged Property shall not count towards the requirement provided for in Section 8.13(a),
and the Administrative Agent may send a notice to the Borrower and the Lenders that the then outstanding Borrowing Base shall be reduced by an amount as determined by the Required Lenders to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the
requirement to provide acceptable title information as required in Section 8.13(a). This new Borrowing Base shall become effective immediately after receipt of such notice. 

Section 8.14 Additional Collateral; Additional Guarantors 

(a) In connection with each redetermination of the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall review the Reserve Report and the list of current
Mortgaged Properties (as described in Section 8.12(c)) to ascertain whether the Mortgaged Properties represent at least ninety percent (90%) of the total value of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the most recently
completed Reserve Report after giving effect to exploration and production activities, acquisitions, dispositions and production. In the event that the Mortgaged Properties do not represent at least ninety percent (90%) of such total value as
determined by the Administrative Agent, then the Borrower shall, or shall cause one or more of the other Credit Parties to, grant, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the certificate required under
Section 8.12(c), to the Administrative Agent as security for the Obligations, Security Instruments covering additional Oil and Gas Properties not already subject to a Lien of the Security Instruments such that after giving
effect thereto, the Mortgaged Properties will represent at least ninety percent (90%) of such total value. All such Liens will be created and perfected by and in accordance with the provisions of deeds of trust, security agreements and financing
statements or other Security Instruments, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in sufficient executed (and acknowledged where necessary or appropriate) counterparts for recording purposes. If any
Subsidiary of the Borrower places a Lien on its Oil and Gas Properties in order to comply with the foregoing, and such Subsidiary is not a Guarantor, then it shall become a Guarantor and comply with Section 8.14(b). 

(b) The Borrower shall promptly cause each Domestic Subsidiary that is not an Unrestricted Subsidiary to Guarantee the Obligations pursuant to
the Guarantee Agreement. In connection with any such Guarantee, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Subsidiary to, promptly, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its
reasonable discretion) after the formation or acquisition (or other similar event) of such Subsidiary to, execute and deliver (i) a supplement to the Guarantee Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, (ii) a supplement executed by such
Subsidiary to the Security Agreement executed by the Credit Parties on the Effective Date, (iii) a pledge all of the Equity 

  
 102

Section 8.15 ERISA Compliance The Borrower will promptly furnish and will cause its Subsidiaries and any ERISA Affiliate to
promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent promptly after request therefor by the Administrative Agent, copies of each annual and other report with respect to each Plan or any trust created thereunder, and promptly upon becoming aware of the
occurrence of any “prohibited transaction,” as described in section 406 of ERISA or in section 4975 of the Code for which no exception exists or is available by statute, regulation, administrative exemption, or otherwise, in
connection with any Plan or any trust created thereunder, a written notice signed by the President or the principal Financial Officer, such Subsidiary or the ERISA Affiliate, as the case may be, specifying the nature thereof, what action the
Borrower, such Subsidiary or the ERISA Affiliate is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto, and, when known, any action taken or proposed by the Internal Revenue Service or the Department of Labor with respect thereto. 

Section 8.16 Marketing Activities The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in marketing
activities for any Hydrocarbons or enter into any contracts related thereto other than contracts for the sale of Hydrocarbons scheduled or reasonably estimated to be produced from their Proved Oil and Gas Properties during the period of such
contract, contracts for the sale of Hydrocarbons scheduled or reasonably estimated to be produced from Proved Oil and Gas Properties of third parties during the period of such contract associated with the Oil and Gas Properties of the Credit Parties
that any Credit Party has the right to market pursuant to joint operating agreements, unitization agreements or other similar contracts that are usual and customary in the oil and gas business and other contracts for the purchase and/or sale of
Hydrocarbons of third parties (a) which have generally offsetting provisions (i.e. corresponding pricing mechanics, delivery dates and points and volumes) such that no “position” is taken and (b) for which appropriate
credit support has been taken to alleviate the material credit risks of the counterparty thereto. 
 Section 8.17 Unrestricted
Subsidiaries

Person that becomes a Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary. 

(b) The Borrower may designate by written notification thereof to the Administrative Agent, any Person that would otherwise be a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Borrower, including a newly formed or newly acquired Person that would otherwise be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if (i) prior, and after giving effect, to such designation, neither a
Default nor a Borrowing Base Deficiency would exist, (ii) such Person does not own or operate any Oil and Gas Properties included in the most recently delivered Reserve Report for which a Borrowing Base has been established, other than Oil and
Gas Properties permitted to be sold or otherwise transferred pursuant to Section 9.10 (which shall 

  
 103 












 count as a Transfer thereunder), (iii) such Person is not a guarantor or the primary obligor with respect to
any Permitted Additional Debt or any Permitted Refinancing thereof unless such Person will be released contemporaneously with such designation, (iv) such Person is not a party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding with the
Borrower or any Subsidiary unless the terms of such agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding are permitted by Section 9.11, (v) such designation is deemed to be an Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary and such
Investment would be permitted to be made under Section 9.05(k) and (vi) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that such designation complies with the
requirements of this Section 8.17(b). For purposes of the foregoing, the designation of a Person as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be the designation of all present and future subsidiaries of such Person as
Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Except as provided in this Section 8.17(b), no Restricted Subsidiary may be redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower may designate any Subsidiary that
directly owns Qualified Midstream Assets as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the requirements of this Section 8.17(b). 

(c) The Borrower may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if after giving effect to such designation,

Section 8.18 and Section 9.11. 
 (d) The Borrower will cause the management, business
and affairs of each Credit Party to be conducted in such a manner (including, without limitation, by keeping separate books of account, furnishing separate financial statements of Unrestricted Subsidiaries to creditors and potential creditors
thereof and by not permitting Properties of the Credit Parties to be commingled) so that each Unrestricted Subsidiary will be treated as an entity separate and distinct from Credit Parties; 

(e) The Borrower will cause each Unrestricted Subsidiary (i) to refrain from maintaining its assets in such a manner that would make it
costly or difficult to segregate, ascertain or identify as its individual assets from those of any other Credit Party and (ii) to observe all corporate formalities; 

(f) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any other Credit Party to, incur, assume, guarantee or be or become liable for any Debt of any
of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries except to the extent permitted by this Agreement; 
 (g) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any
other Credit Party to, permit any credit agreement for a senior credit facility, a loan agreement for a senior credit facility, a note purchase agreement for the sale of promissory notes or an indenture governing capital markets debt instruments
pursuant to which any Credit Party is a borrower, issuer or guarantor (the “Relevant Debt”), the terms of which would, upon the occurrence of a default under any Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (i) result in, or permit the
holder of any Relevant Debt to declare a default on such Relevant Debt or (ii) cause the payment of any Relevant Debt to be accelerated or payable before the fixed date on which the principal of such Relevant Debt is due and payable; and 

  
 104 












 (h) The Borrower will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to hold any Equity Interest in,
or any Debt of, any Credit Party. 
 Section 8.18 Account Control Agreements The Borrower will, and will cause each other Credit

contemporaneously with the opening of such Deposit Account, Securities Account and/or Commodities Account (or at such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion), cause such Deposit Account, Securities Account and/or
Commodities Account to be subject to a Control Agreement; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and/or Commodities Accounts (other than Excluded Accounts) in existence on the
Effective Date, the Borrower shall not be required to comply with this Section 8.18 until the date that is forty-five (45) days following the Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion).
In addition, the Borrower will, and will cause each other Credit Party to, maintain and hold Deposit Accounts (other than an Excluded Account for so long as it is an Excluded Account) only with Lenders or Affiliates of Lenders. 

Section 8.19 Swap Agreements. Commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021, the last day of each fiscal
quarter (each such date, a “Specified Swap Test Date”), the Credit Parties shall be party to Swap Agreements, in the form of fixed-price swaps and purchased put options or collars, in each case, with prices and terms reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent, covering not less than fifty percent (50%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production from Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Developed Producing Reserves (as reflected in the most recently
delivered Reserve Report prior to such Specified Swap Test Date) for each of crude oil and natural gas, calculated separately, (i) if the Leverage Ratio is less than 1.0 to 1.0 as of the Applicable Leverage Ratio Test Date, for each calendar
month of the twelve (12) calendar month period commencing with the calendar month immediately following such Specified Swap Test Date or (ii) if the Leverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0 as of the Applicable Leverage Ratio
Test Date, for each calendar month of the twenty-four (24) calendar month period commencing with the calendar month immediately following such Specified Swap Test Date.

 Section 9.08 Mergers, Etc The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to, divide or
merge into or with or consolidate with any other Person, or permit any other Person to merge into or consolidate with it, or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions) all or
substantially all of its Property to any other Person (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) (any such transaction, a “consolidation”), or liquidate or dissolve; provided that, so long as no Default has occurred and is
then continuing, (a) any Restricted Subsidiary may participate in a consolidation with the Borrower (provided that the Borrower shall be the survivor), (b) any Restricted Subsidiary may participate in a consolidation with any other
Restricted Subsidiary in a transaction in which the surviving entity is a Restricted Subsidiary, (c) any Restricted Subsidiary may dispose of its assets to the Borrower or to another Restricted Subsidiary and (d) any Restricted Subsidiary
may liquidate or dissolve if the Borrower determines in good faith that such liquidation or dissolution is in the best interests of the Borrower and is not materially disadvantageous to the Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 9.08, the Credit Parties may consummate the Extraction Merger and the Crestone Merger, in each case, on the Effective Date. 

Section 9.09 Sale or Discount of Receivables Except for receivables obtained by any Credit Party out of the ordinary course of

receivable or accounts receivable.

 Section 9.10 Sale of Properties The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any
other Credit Party to, sell, assign, farm-out, convey or otherwise transfer (collectively in this section, “Transfer”) any Oil and Gas Property or any interest in Hydrocarbons produced or to
be produced therefrom or any Equity Interest in any Credit Party that owns any Oil and Gas Property, commodity Swap Agreement or any interest in Hydrocarbons produced or to be produced therefrom (in this section, an “E&P Credit
Party”) or unwind or terminate any commodity Swap Agreements, except for: 
 (a) the sale of Hydrocarbons in the ordinary course of
business; 
 (b) farmouts, swaps or trades of undeveloped acreage not included in the most recently delivered Reserve Report and assignments
in connection with such farmouts, swaps or trades; 
 (c) the Transfer of equipment that is no longer necessary for the business of the
Borrower or such other Credit Party or is replaced by equipment of at least comparable value or use; 
 (d) Transfers of Oil and Gas
Properties that are not Proved Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the Reserve Report used in the most recent determination of the Borrowing Base; 

(e) (i) Transfers of Oil and Gas Properties that comprise Proved Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the Reserve Report used in the most
recent determination of the Borrowing Base, provided that such Transfers are for fair market value, (ii) the unwinding or termination of commodity Swap Agreements; or (iii) Transfers of all (but not less than all) of the Equity Interests
collectively owned by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in any E&P Credit Party; provided that in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above, except with respect to any novation or replacement, as
applicable, contemplated by the final proviso of this Section 9.10(e), at least seventy-five percent (75%) (or such greater percentage as may be required to eliminate any resulting Borrowing Base Deficiency) of the
consideration received in respect of such sale or other disposition or unwinding or termination, as applicable, shall be cash or cash equivalents; provided, further, that to the extent that, if during any period commencing with the
later of the most recent Scheduled Redetermination Date or the most recent adjustment to the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Section 9.10 through the next Scheduled Redetermination Date, Oil and Gas Properties and commodity Swap Agreements with
an aggregate Borrowing Base value in excess of five percent (5%) of the Borrowing Base value of all Oil and Gas Properties included in the Borrowing Base of the Credit Parties (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent), are Transferred
or unwound or terminated, as applicable, by any one or more Credit Parties pursuant to this Section 9.10(e), then the Borrowing Base will be reduced, effective immediately, by the Borrowing Base values in excess of such
five percent (5%) threshold; provided, further, that for purposes of the foregoing proviso, (A) a commodity Swap Agreement shall be deemed to have not been unwound or terminated if, (x) such commodity Swap Agreement is
novated from the existing counterparty to 

  
 111 












 
an Approved Counterparty, with the Borrower or the applicable Credit Party being the “remaining party” for purposes of such novation, or (y) upon its termination or unwinding, it
is replaced, in a substantially contemporaneous transaction, with one or more commodity Swap Agreements with the same or longer tenor, covering volumes not less than and for prices not less than those Swap Agreements being replaced and without cash
payments to any Credit Party in connection therewith, and (B) an Oil and Gas Property shall be deemed to have not been Transferred if upon its Transfer, it is replaced, in a substantially contemporaneous transaction, with Oil and Gas Properties
with approximately the same PV-9 value as reasonably determined by Borrower in good faith and evidenced by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a certificate of a Responsible Officer containing reasonably
detailed supporting information for such good faith determination; provided that, this clause (B) shall only apply and may only be relied on to the extent that the Oil and Gas Properties so Transferred in exchange for other Oil and Gas
Properties in any period between two successive Scheduled Redetermination Dates does not exceed seven and a half percent (7.5%) of the Borrowing Base value of all Oil and Gas Properties included in the Borrowing Base of the Credit Parties (as
reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent). For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the Transfer of an E&P Credit Party owning such Oil and Gas Properties and/or commodity Swap Agreements pursuant to this
Section 9.10(e) shall be deemed the Transfer of the Oil and Gas Properties and the unwinding or termination of the commodity Swap Agreements owned by such E&P Credit Party; 

(f) Transfers in connection with Investments permitted by Section 9.05, other than Transfers of (i) any Proved
Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the Reserve Report used in the most recent determination of the Borrowing Base or (ii) any Equity Interests in any E&P Credit Party owning Proved Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the Reserve Report
used in the most recent determination of the Borrowing Base; and 
 (g) Transfers of Properties among the Credit Parties; provided
that (i) with respect to any Transfers of Equity Interests in any E&P Credit Party, the requirements of Section 8.14(b) are satisfied and (ii) with respect to any Transfers of Proved Oil and Gas Properties
evaluated in the Reserve Report used in the most recent determination of the Borrowing Base, the transferee promptly delivers mortgages or other Security Instruments in favor of the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary to satisfy the
requirements of Section 8.14. 
 Section 9.11 Transactions with Affiliates The Borrower will not, nor
will it permit any other Credit Party to, enter into any transaction, including, without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of Property, with any Affiliate (other than one of the other Credit Parties), other than (a) transactions
that are upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to it than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate, (b) transactions between Credit Parties, (c) transactions between any Credit
Party and any partnership listed on Schedule 9.11, (d) any Restricted Payment permitted by Section 9.04, or (e) any Investment permitted by Section 9.05.

Subsidiary or redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary unless the Borrower complies with Section 8.14(b). The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to, sell, assign or
otherwise dispose of any Equity Interests in any Credit Party except (a) to another Credit Party or (b) in compliance with Section 9.10(e). No Credit Party shall have any Foreign Subsidiaries. 

  
 112 












 Section 9.13 Negative Pledge Agreements; Dividend Restrictions The Borrower will
not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any contract, agreement or understanding (other than restrictions or conditions imposed by law, this Agreement, the Security Instruments, agreements with
respect to Purchase Money Indebtedness or Capital Leases secured by Liens permitted by Section 9.03(c), but then only with respect to the Property that is the subject of such Capital Lease or Purchase Money Indebtedness,
Liens permitted under Section 9.03(f) but then only with respect to the assets subject of such Lien, Liens securing Permitted Additional Debt under Section 9.03(h), and documents creating Liens which are described in
clause (d), (f), (h) or (i) of the definition of “Excepted Liens”, but then only with respect to the Property that is the subject of the applicable lease, document or license described in
such clause (d), (f), (h) or (i)) that in any way prohibits or restricts the granting, conveying, creation or imposition of any Lien on any of its Property in favor of the Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, or restricts any Credit Party from paying dividends or making any other distributions in respect of its Equity Interests to any Credit Party. 

Section 9.14 Swap Agreements 

(a) The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to, enter into any Swap Agreements with any Person other than: 

(i) Swap Agreements in respect of commodities with an Approved Counterparty fixing a price for a term of not more than sixty months and the
notional volumes for which (when aggregated with other commodity Swap Agreements then in effect other than put or floor options as to which an upfront premium has been paid or basis differential swaps on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Swap
Agreements) do not exceed, as of the date such Swap Agreement is executed (A) for any month during the first two years of the forthcoming five year period, the greater of (1) one hundred percent (100%) of the reasonably anticipated
projected production from Oil and Gas Properties constituting PDP Reserves (as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report) for each of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids calculated separately and (2) eighty-five
percent (85%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production from Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Reserves (as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report) for each of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids
calculated separately, and (B) for any month during the last three years of the forthcoming five year period, the greater of (1) eighty-five percent (85%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production from Oil and Gas Properties
constituting PDP Reserves (as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report) for each of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids calculated separately and (2) sixty-five percent (65%) of the reasonably anticipated projected
production from Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Reserves (as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report) for each of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids calculated separately; provided that the Borrower
(1) shall have the option to update the reasonably anticipated projected production from Oil and Gas Properties between the delivery of Reserve Reports hereunder (which updates shall be provided to the Administrative Agent in writing and shall
be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) and (2) shall have the option to enter into commodity Swap Agreements with an Approved Counterparty with 

  
 113 












 
respect to (x) such updated projected production and subject to the volume limitations set forth in this Section 9.14(a) and (y) reasonably anticipated
projected production from Oil and Gas Properties not then owned by the Credit Parties but which are subject to a binding purchase agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) for which one or more of the
Credit Parties are scheduled to acquire such Oil and Gas Properties within the applicable period (a “subject acquisition”), provided that, (I) the Credit Parties are in compliance with this
Section 9.14(a) after giving pro forma effect to such subject acquisition and (II) if such subject acquisition does not close for any reason on the date required thereunder, including any binding extensions
thereof, within thirty (30) days of such required closing date, the Credit Parties shall unwind or otherwise terminate the Swap Agreements entered into with respect to production that was to be acquired thereunder; and 

(ii) Swap Agreements in respect of interest rates with an Approved Counterparty, the notional amounts of which (when aggregated with all other
Swap Agreements of the Credit Parties then in effect) do not exceed seventy-five percent (75%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Borrower’s Debt for borrowed money. 

(b) In no event shall any Swap Agreement, other than a master Swap Agreement pursuant to which any Credit Party executes only put or floor
options as to which an upfront premium has been paid, contain any requirement, agreement or covenant for any Credit Party to post collateral or margin to secure their obligations under such Swap Agreement other than the benefit of the Security
Instruments as contemplated herein. 
 (c) If, after the end of any calendar month, the Borrower determines that the aggregate notional
volume of all Swap Agreements in respect of commodities for such calendar month exceeded one hundred percent (100%) of actual production of Hydrocarbons in such calendar month, then the Borrower shall (i) promptly notify the Administrative
Agent of such determination, and (ii) if requested by the Administrative Agent (or if otherwise necessary to ensure compliance with Section 9.14(a)), within thirty (30) days after such request, terminate, create off-setting positions, or otherwise unwind or monetize existing Swap Agreements such that, at such time, future volumes under commodity Swap Agreements will not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of reasonably
anticipated projected production for the then-current and any succeeding calendar months. 
 Section 9.15 Permitted Additional Debt
Restrictions 
 (a) The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to, amend, modify, waive or otherwise change,
consent or agree to any amendment, modification, waiver or other change to, any of the terms of the Permitted Additional Debt if (a) the effect thereof would be to shorten the maturity of the Permitted Additional Debt to a date that is earlier
than one hundred eighty (180) days after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, or (b) such action adds or amends any representations and warranties, covenants or events of default to be more restrictive or burdensome than this Agreement in
each case as reasonably determined in good faith by the Borrower without this Agreement being contemporaneously amended to add similar provisions. 

  
 114 












 (b) The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to prior to the date
that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, make or offer to make any optional or voluntary Redemption of or otherwise optionally or voluntarily Redeem (whether in whole or in part) any principal in respect
of any Permitted Additional Debt, except (i) with the Net Cash Proceeds of any substantially contemporaneous issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) or in exchange for Equity Interests (other than Disqualified
Capital Stock), (ii) with the Net Cash Proceeds of any Permitted Refinancing, (iii) if after giving pro forma effect to such Redemption, (A) no Default exists or results therefrom, (B) the Commitment Utilization Percentage is not more
than seventy-five percent (75%) and (C) the Leverage Ratio is less than 1.0 to 1.0, or (iv) in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Available Free Cash Flow Amount at the time made, if after giving pro forma effect to such Redemption,
(A) no Default or Event of Default exists or results therefrom, (B) the Commitment Utilization Percentage is not more than eighty percent (80%) and (C) the Leverage Ratio is less than 2.25 to 1.0. 

Section 9.16 Amendments to Organizational Documents The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to, amend,
supplement or otherwise modify (or permit to be amended, supplemented or modified) its organizational documents in any respect that would reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Administrative Agent or the Revolving
Credit Lenders without the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 

Section 9.17 Changes in Fiscal Periods The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any other Credit Party to, have its fiscal year
end on a date other than December 31 or change its method of determining fiscal quarters without the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

 ARTICLE XI 

THE AGENTS 

Section 11.01 Authorization and Action 

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and
its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby
authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may
have under such Loan Documents. 
 (b) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including
enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting)
upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be
binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the
Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that
may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in
violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the
exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall
not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates
in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

(c) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of
the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing: 

  
 119 












 (i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any
obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, Issuing Bank or holder of any other obligation other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a
Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not
intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby; 
 (ii) where the Administrative Agent is required or deemed to act as a trustee in respect of any
Collateral over which a security interest has been created pursuant to a Loan Document expressed to be governed by the laws of the United States, the obligations and liabilities of the Administrative Agent to the Secured Parties in its capacity as
trustee shall be excluded to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; and 
 (iii) nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document
shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account. 

(d) The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or
through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and
exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
selection of such sub-agent. 
 (e) Neither of the Documentation Agent nor any Arranger shall have
obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for
hereunder. 
 (f) In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Credit Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

  
 120 












 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans, Letter of Credit Payment and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the
Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 3.02, 3.04, 5.01, 5.03, 5.04 and 12.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender,
each Issuing Bank and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the other
Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 12.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or
Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding. 

(g) The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except
solely to the extent of the Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party
beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed
to the provisions of this Article. 
 Section 11.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Indemnification, Etc.

 (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken
by it under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (A) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative
Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (B) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Credit Party or any officer thereof contained
in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. 

  
 121 












 (b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and
until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to
ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith,
(iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required
to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, or (vi) the creation, perfection or priority of
Liens on the Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered by the Borrower, any Subsidiary, any Lender or any Issuing Bank as a
result of, any determination of the Revolving Credit Exposure, any of the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or Issuing Bank. 

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such
promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 12.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 12.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including
counsel to the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts,
(iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Credit Party in connection with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing
Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or
the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or
writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise
authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof). 

  
 122 












 Section 11.03 Posting of Communications 

(a) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and
the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic
transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). 
 (b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its
primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the
Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that
there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands
and assumes the risks of such distribution. 
 (c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND
“AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN
THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF
THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER, THE
DOCUMENTATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY CREDIT PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND,
INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY CREDIT PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH
THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. 
 “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information,
document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Credit Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank by means of electronic
communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Approved Electronic Platform. 

  
 123 












 (d) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next
sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees
(i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by
electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address. 
 (e) Each of the Lenders, each of the
Issuing Banks and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative
Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies. 
 (f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document. 

Section 11.04 The Administrative Agent Individually With respect to its Commitment, Loans, Letter of Credit Maximum Amount and
Letters of Credit, the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or
Issuing Bank, as the case may be. The terms “Issuing Banks”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any
other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any
duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks. 
 Section 11.05 Successor Administrative Agent 

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the
Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative
Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent
may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the
prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a
successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative
Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation
hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. 

  
 124 












 (b) Notwithstanding Section 11.05(a), in the event no successor
Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice
of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Security Instrument for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Security Instruments and the
other Loan Documents, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such
appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Security Instrument, including any action required to maintain
the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments
required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications
required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the
provisions of this Article and Section 12.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring
Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as
Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above. 

Section 11.06 Acknowledgements of Lenders and Issuing Banks. 

(a) Each Lender represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that
it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any
other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States
securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related
agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

  
 125 












 (b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Effective Date,
or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and
each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date. 

Section 11.07 Collateral Matters 

(a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 12.08 or with respect to a
Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed
that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. 

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of cash management services the obligations under
Secured Cash Management Agreements and obligations under Secured Swap Agreements, will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or
of the obligations of any Credit Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Secured Cash Management Agreement or Secured Swap Agreement, as
applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the
limitations set forth in this paragraph. 
 (c) The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its
discretion, to: 
 (i) subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the
holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 9.03(b) or any Transfer permitted by Section 9.10; and 

(ii) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (A) after the termination of the
Commitments, the payment in full of all principal and interest on each Loan and all fees payable hereunder and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents (other than contingent indemnification or contingent reimbursement obligations not yet
known) to any Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender under any Loan Document, the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than 

  
 126 












 
Letters of Credit for which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks have been made), the reimbursement of all Reimbursement Obligations owing under the
Loan Documents, and the payment in full or cash collateralization (or other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) with respect to any other Obligations that are due and owing or that would become due and owing as a result
of the termination of this Agreement, (B) that is, or is to be, sold, released or otherwise disposed of as permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, and (C) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority
Lenders (or, if approval, authorization or ratification by all Lenders is required under the first proviso in Section 12.02(b), then by all Lenders). 

(d) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding
the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative
Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

Section 11.08 Credit Bidding The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the
Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner
purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the
Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Credit Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the
Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid
by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon
the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of
the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful
credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle
or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent
with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the
Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving
effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders 

  
 127 












 
contained in Section 12.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each
of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments
issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire
Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such
Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall
automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition
vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive
interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable so as to exempt from the prohibitions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and
performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, and the conditions for exemptive relief thereunder are and will continue to be satisfied in connection therewith, 

  
 128 












 (iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional
Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of

(y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the
avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, that: 
 (i) none of the Administrative Agent, any
Arranger, the Documentation Agent or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the

(ii) the Person making the investment decision on behalf of such Lender with respect to the entrance into, participation in, administration of

 (iv) the Person making the

both, with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement and is responsible for exercising independent judgment in evaluating the transactions hereunder, and 

  
 129 












 (v) no fee or other compensation is being paid directly to the Administrative Agent, or any
Arranger or any their respective Affiliates for investment advice (as opposed to other services) in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement. 

(c) The Administrative Agent and each Arranger and the Documentation Agent hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking
to provide investment advice or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an
Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of
Credit or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions

 Section 11.10 Erroneous Payments

its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, individually and collectively, a
“Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in any event no later than one
(1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including
the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right

“Payment Notice”) or (ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case,
or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in any

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder

Section 12.02 Waivers; Amendments 

(a) No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of
dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, power or privilege, under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege under any of the Loan Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent,
the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 12.02(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any other
Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Subject to
Section 5.09, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor any other Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by
the Borrower and the Majority Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment or the Maximum Credit Amount or postpone
the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment of any Revolving Credit Lender without the written consent of such Revolving Credit Lender, (ii) increase the Borrowing Base without the written consent of each Revolving Credit Lender (other
than any Defaulting Lender), (iii) decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base without the consent of the Required Lenders, or modify Section 2.06 in any manner without the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that
a Scheduled Redetermination may be postponed by the Required Lenders, (iv) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, or reduce any other
Obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (v) postpone the scheduled date of payment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, or
any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or any other Obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone or extend the Termination Date without the written
consent of each Lender affected thereby, (vi) (A) change any term or condition hereof in a manner that 

  
 132 












 
would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, (B) subordinate any of the Obligations owed to the Lenders in right of payment or otherwise adversely affect the
priority of payment of any of such Obligations or (C) subordinate any of the Liens on a material portion of the Collateral, taken as a whole, securing the Obligations owed to the Lenders to any other indebtedness for borrowed money other than
purchase money indebtedness, capitalized lease or similar obligations and/or any debtor-in-possession financing (except as otherwise set forth in
Section 11.07), in each case, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) waive or amend Section 3.03(c), Section 6.01 or
Section 10.02(c), without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) release any Guarantor (except as set forth in the Guarantee Agreement or this Agreement or as a result of a transaction permitted under
Section 9.10), release, or subordinate the Administrative Agent’s Lien on or security interest in, in either case, all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than as provided in
Section 11.07) or reduce the percentage set forth in Section 8.14(a) to less than eighty-five percent (85%), without the consent of each Lender, (ix) impose any greater restriction on the
ability of any Revolving Credit Lender to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of, if such Lender is a Revolving Credit Lender, the Majority Lenders or (x) change any of the provisions of this
Section 12.02(b) or the definitions of “Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage”, “Majority Lenders”, “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of
Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or any other Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; provided,
further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Issuing Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent, such other Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, fees payable hereunder to any Lender may be reduced with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the
affected Lender. 
 Section 12.03 Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver 

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel

AGREEMENT, OR WITH ANY GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENT, ANY INACCURACY OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR ANY BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF ANY CREDIT PARTY SET FORTH IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY INSTRUMENTS, DOCUMENTS OR CERTIFICATIONS DELIVERED IN
CONNECTION THEREWITH, ANY LOAN OR LETTER OF CREDIT OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREFROM, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY REFUSAL BY ANY ISSUING BANK TO HONOR A DEMAND FOR PAYMENT UNDER A LETTER OF CREDIT IF THE DOCUMENTS PRESENTED IN CONNECTION

NON-DELIVERY OR OTHER IMPROPER PRESENTATION OF THE DOCUMENTS PRESENTED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE OPERATIONS OF THE BUSINESS OF THE CREDIT PARTIES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE

MATERIALS ON OR AT ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES, THE BREACH OR NON-COMPLIANCE BY ANY CREDIT PARTY OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SUBSIDIARIES WITH ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW APPLICABLE TO ANY CREDIT PARTY OR ANY OF THEIR

 135 












 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any
Agent, any Arranger or any Issuing Bank under Section 12.03(a) or (b), each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent, any Arranger or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s
Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage (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 such Agent, any Arranger or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. 

(d) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL ASSERT, AND EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, ANY CLAIM AGAINST ANY
OTHER PARTY HERETO, 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 LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY
AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, THE TRANSACTIONS, ANY LOAN OR LETTER OF CREDIT OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREOF; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 12.03(d) SHALL RELIEVE THE BORROWER OF
ANY OBLIGATION IT MAY HAVE TO INDEMNIFY AND 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 ten (10) days after written demand

 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 (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
each Lender and no Lender 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 (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in
Section 12.04(b)) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by
reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 12.04(b)(ii), any Lender
may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 

  
 136 












 (A) the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be
required if such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender that is actively engaged in the making of revolving loans, an Approved Fund or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that the
Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be
required for an assignment to an assignee that is a Lender immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment. 
 (ii) Assignments shall
be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of
a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and
Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower
shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an
assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (C)
the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; 

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

(E) no such assignment shall be made to a natural person or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and
operated for, the primary benefit of a natural person, an Industry Competitor, any Credit Party, any Affiliate of any Credit Party, or any of their respective Subsidiaries; and 

(F) no such assignment shall be made to a Defaulting Lender. 

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

  
 137 












 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Maximum Credit Amount of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the
Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall
be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In connection with any changes to the Register, if necessary, the Administrative Agent will
reflect the revisions on Schedule 1.2 and forward a copy of such revised Schedule 1.2 to the Borrower, each Issuing Bank and each Lender. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s
completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 12.04(b)(ii)(C) and any written consent to such assignment required
by Section 12.04(b)(i), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement
unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 12.04(b). 
 (vi) Any Lender may, without
the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement and no such participation may be sold to a natural Person or an Industry Competitor. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to
any amendment, modification or waiver described in the proviso to Section 12.02 that affects such Participant. In addition such agreement must provide that the Participant be bound by the provisions of
Section 12.03. Subject to Section 12.04(b)(vii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01,
Section 5.02 and Section 5.03 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(b). To the extent permitted
by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.01(c) as though it
were a Lender. 

  
 138 












 (vii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 5.01 or Section 5.03 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such
Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant
that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.03 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the
benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 5.03(e) as though it were a Lender. 
 (viii) Each Lender that
sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts
(and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person
except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States
Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes
of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this Section 12.04(c) 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 Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

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

  
 139 












 Section 12.05 Survival; Revival; Reinstatement 

(a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties herein and in the certificates or other instruments
delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans
and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge
of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable
under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 5.01, Section 5.02,
Section 5.03 and Section 12.03 and Article XI shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof. 

(b) To the extent that any payments on the 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 so satisfied shall be revived and continue as
if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect.
In such event, each Loan Document shall be automatically reinstated and the Credit Parties shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to effect such reinstatement. 

Section 12.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness 

(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 AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS
REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 

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

  
 140 












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

Section 12.08 Right of Setoff If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender 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, without limitations obligations under Swap Agreements) at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against any and all the obligations of any Credit Party owed to
such Lender now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be
unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 12.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or its Affiliates may have.

BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO IT AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 12.01 OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH THE ADMINISTRATIVE

Section 12.10 Headings Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only,

Section 12.11 Confidentiality Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory
authority or a nationally recognized ratings agency that requires access to information regarding the Credit Parties, the Loans and the Loan Documents in connection with ratings issued with respect to a securitization (it being understood that such
nationally recognized ratings agency to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations
or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party 

  
 142 












 
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 12.11, to any assignee
of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement relating to any Credit Party and its
obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 12.11 or becomes available to the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section 12.11, “Information” means all information received
from the Credit Parties relating to the Credit Parties and their businesses, other than (i) any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any
Credit Party and (ii) information routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section 12.11 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to
its own confidential information. 
 Section 12.12 Interest Rate Limitation It is the intention of the parties hereto that each
Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of
New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents or any
agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Notes, it is agreed as follows: the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or
received by such Lender under any of the Loan Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the 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 Lender 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 Lender to the
Borrower); and 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 Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be
canceled automatically by such Lender as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the 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 Lender to the Borrower). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by
law applicable to such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the stated term of the Loans until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount
allowed by such applicable law. If at 

  
 143 












 
any time and from time to time the amount of interest payable to any Lender on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender pursuant to this
Section 12.12 and in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Lender computed at the Highest
Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender until the total
amount of interest payable to such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 12.12.

 Section 12.13 EXCULPATION PROVISIONS

 (B) THE BORROWER
HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) THE CREDIT FACILITIES PROVIDED FOR HEREUNDER AND ANY RELATED ARRANGING OR OTHER SERVICES IN CONNECTION THEREWITH (INCLUDING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY AMENDMENT, WAIVER OR OTHER MODIFICATION HEREOF OR OF ANY OTHER LOAN

ISSUING BANK HAS ADVISED OR IS CURRENTLY ADVISING ANY OF THE BORROWER, THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES ON OTHER MATTERS) AND NONE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY OTHER AGENT, ANY ARRANGER, ANY LENDER OR ANY ISSUING BANK HAS
ANY OBLIGATION TO ANY OF THE BORROWER, THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN EACH CASE, EXCEPT THOSE OBLIGATIONS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN AND IN THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS;
(IV) THE BORROWER, THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES WILL NOT ASSERT ANY CLAIM BASED ON ALLEGED BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY; (V) THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ITS AFFILIATES, EACH LENDER AND ITS AFFILIATES AND EACH
ISSUING BANK AND ITS AFFILIATES MAY BE ENGAGED IN A BROAD RANGE OF TRANSACTIONS THAT INVOLVE INTERESTS THAT DIFFER FROM THOSE OF THE BORROWER, THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, AND NONE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER
OR ANY ISSUING BANK HAS ANY OBLIGATION TO DISCLOSE ANY OF SUCH INTERESTS BY VIRTUE OF ANY ADVISORY, AGENCY OR FIDUCIARY RELATIONSHIP; AND (VI) NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY ISSUING BANK HAS PROVIDED AND NONE WILL PROVIDE

of the Security Instruments and of the provisions of this Agreement relating to any Collateral securing the Obligations shall also extend to and be available to the Secured Non-Lender Swap Party, the Secured
Swap Parties and the Cash Management Banks on a pro rata basis (but subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, provisions thereof relating to the application and priority of payments to the Persons entitled
thereto) in respect of any obligations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which arise under Existing Secured Swap Agreements listed on Schedule 1.5 (with respect to the Secured Non-Lender Swap
Party), Secured Swap Agreements or Secured Cash Management Agreements; provided that such benefit shall not apply, with respect to the Secured Non-Lender Swap Party, to any additional transactions or
confirmations entered into on or after the Effective Date, with the exception of any novations, transactions or confirmations in respect of the Existing Secured Swap Agreements listed on Schedule 1.5 that are entered into and effective as of
the Effective Date. No Secured Swap Party or Secured Non-Lender Swap Party shall have any voting rights under any Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under any such Swap
Agreements. No Cash Management Bank shall have any voting rights under any Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under any such Secured Cash Management Agreements.

any Lender for any reason whatsoever. There are no third party beneficiaries. 
 Section 12.16 USA Patriot Act Notice Pursuant

necessary to identify such Person (and may request such Person’s organizational documents or other identifying documents) to the extent necessary for the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender to comply with the USA Patriot Act. 

Section 12.17 Keepwell Each Credit Party that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time the Guarantee or the grant of the security

Specified Credit Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Credit Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under its Guarantee and the other Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but,
in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering the such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 12.17 voidable under
applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The 

  
 146

 Section 12.18 Acknowledgement and Consent to

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial
Institution, its parent entity, undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such
liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 
 (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the
exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 
 Section 12.19 Flood Insurance

 Section 12.20 Intercreditor Agreements. 

(a) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties acknowledges that obligations of the Borrower and the other Credit
Parties with respect to any Permitted Additional Debt or any Permitted Refinancing thereof may, to the extent set forth herein, be secured by Liens on assets of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties that constitute collateral security for the
Obligations. Upon the approval of an Intercreditor Agreement by the Majority Lenders, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, in
each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party, (i) from time to time upon the request of the Borrower, in connection with the establishment, incurrence, amendment,
refinancing or replacement of any such Debt, such Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) any documents relating thereto. 
 (b) Each of the
Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably (i) consents to the treatment of Liens to be provided for under the Intercreditor Agreements, (ii) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof, such
Secured Party will be bound by the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement as if it were a signatory thereto and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) agrees that no Secured Party shall have any
right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of any action taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.20 or in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement and
(iv) authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to carry out the provisions and intent of each Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (c) Each
of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably further authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent,
authorization or other action by such Secured Party, any amendments, supplements or other modifications of any Intercreditor Agreement that the Borrower may from time to time request (i) to give effect to any establishment, incurrence,
amendment, extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement of any Permitted Additional Debt, (ii) to confirm for any party that such Intercreditor Agreement is effective and binding upon the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties
or (iii) to effect any other amendment, supplement or modification so long as the resulting agreement would constitute an Intercreditor Agreement if executed at such time as a new agreement. 

(d) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably further authorizes and directs the Administrative
Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party, any amendments, supplements or other modifications of any Security Instrument to add or
remove any legend that may be required pursuant to any Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (e) The Administrative Agent shall have the benefit of the
provisions of Article XI with respect to all actions taken by it pursuant to this Section 12.20 or in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement to the full extent thereof. 

  
 148 












 Section 12.21 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that
the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the
parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
(together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any
Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States. 

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding
under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing
such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such
interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special
Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such
Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is
understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. 

Section 12.22 Existing Credit Agreement. On the Effective Date, this Agreement shall supersede and replace in its entirety the
Existing Credit Agreement; provided, however, that (a) all loans, letters of credit, and other indebtedness, obligations and liabilities outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on such date shall continue to constitute
Loans, Letters of Credit and other indebtedness, obligations and liabilities under this Agreement, (b) the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents hereunder shall not constitute a novation, refinancing or any other
fundamental change in the relationship among the parties, (c) the Loans, Letters of Credit, and other indebtedness, obligations and liabilities outstanding hereunder, to the extent outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately
prior to the Effective Date, shall constitute the same loans, letters of credit, and other indebtedness, obligations and liabilities as were outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and (d) the Liens securing the “Obligations”
(as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and the rights, duties, liabilities and obligations of the Credit Parties under the Existing Credit Agreement and the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to which
they are a party shall not be extinguished but shall be carried forward and shall secure such Obligations and liabilities as amended, renewed, extended and restated hereby.
