 Exhibit A 

Form of Amendment to Common Security and Account Agreement 







 Execution Version 

FIRST AMENDMENT TO 

COMMON SECURITY AND ACCOUNT AGREEMENT 

This First Amendment, dated as of September 7, 2017 (the “First Amendment”), amends the Common Security and Account
Agreement, dated as of May 13, 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Common Security and Account Agreement”), by and among Cheniere Corpus Christi Holdings, LLC (the
“Company”), Corpus Christi Liquefaction, LLC, Cheniere Corpus Christi Pipeline, L.P. and Corpus Christi Pipeline GP, LLC (the “Guarantors” and, together with the Company, the “Securing Parties”),
the Initial Senior Creditor Group Representatives listed in Schedule C thereto and the Senior Creditor Group Representatives that accede thereto from time to time, for the benefit of all Senior Creditors, Société Générale
as Intercreditor Agent for the Facility Lenders and any Hedging Banks, Société Générale as Security Trustee, and Mizuho Bank, Ltd. as Account Bank. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have
the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Common Security and Account Agreement. 
 WHEREAS, the Company has requested that Intercreditor
Agent agree on behalf of each Senior Creditor Group Representative to amend the Common Security and Account Agreement as set forth in the First Amendment; and 

WHEREAS, the Requisite Secured Parties have instructed the Intercreditor Agent to amend the Common Security and Account Agreement as set forth
herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and subject to the terms and conditions herein set
forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Amendments to Common Security and Account Agreement. The Company, the
Guarantors and the Security Trustee each agree that the Common Security and Account Agreement is amended by: 

(a)    deleting Section 3.2(d)(vi)(H) (Accounts — Securities Accounts) of the Common
Security and Account Agreement in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 “(H) the Account Bank shall be the Securities
Intermediary in respect of such Account. The Securities Intermediary’s Jurisdiction for such Account shall be the State of New York, and the laws of the State of New York are applicable to all issues specified in Article 2(1) of the Hague
Securities Convention; and” 
 (b)    adding the following as a new Section 4.11 (Account
with Third Party Account Bank) to the Common Security and Account Agreement: 
 “4.11 Account with Third Party
Account Bank. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, including Section 4.3(a) and (b) (Accounts), Sections 4.4 (Procedures for Deposits and Withdrawals from Accounts) and Section 3.2(d)(vi) (Accounts
— Securities Accounts): 








	 	(a)	The Company may from time to time agree to establish and maintain a segregated, secured account, which shall be an Account, and any related sub-accounts (the “Third Party
Investment Account”) with any financial institution that is reasonably acceptable to the Account Bank (any financial institution that is not the Account Bank with which such account is established as permitted by this Agreement, a
“Third Party Account Bank”); provided that the Company shall procure that prior to the deposit or transfer of any funds into such Third Party Investment Account: 


 

	 	(i)	such Third Party Account Bank shall enter into an account control agreement (a “Third Party Account Control Agreement”) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Security Trustee, pursuant to
which the Security Trustee shall have sole “control” (within the meaning of Sections 8-106(d) and (f) of the UCC or Sections 9-104(a)(2) and (3) of
the UCC) of the Third Party Investment Account; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Account Bank shall be designated as an authorized representative of the Borrower permitted to execute transactions and make withdrawals and transfers of funds in respect of such Third Party Investment Account; and


  

	 	(iii)	the Third Party Investment Account may be interest bearing. 

  

	 	(b)	The Company (or the Security Trustee on behalf of the Company) may submit instructions (in written form, including in a Withdrawal and Transfer Certificate from the Company, and which may be given as a standing
instruction) to the Account Bank directing the Account Bank to take the following actions in respect of the Third Party Investment Account: 

  

	 	(i)	transfer funds from an Account to the Third Party Investment Account or instruct the Third Party Account Bank to transfer funds from the Third Party Investment Account to one or more Accounts, or 


 

	 	(ii)	 instruct the Third Party Account Bank to invest funds in the Third Party Investment Account in Authorized
Investments selected as set forth in clause (e) below (or sell or otherwise liquidate such investments) as contemplated by Section 4.2(b) (Directing the Making of Investments — Authorized Investments), in a manner agreed
between the Company and the Third Party Account Bank in any customary account management agreement related to the Third Party Investment Account, and, in each such case, the Account Bank shall act in accordance with the instructions of the Company
(or the 










	 	
Security Trustee on behalf of the Company) and in turn transmit any such instructions to the Third Party Account Bank. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company (or the Security Trustee on behalf
of the Company) shall be permitted to transfer funds from any Account, including but not limited to the Construction Account, Revenue Account and/or the Operating Account, to be held in the Third Party Investment Account until such funds are
required to be applied as contemplated by this Agreement, and shall be permitted to transfer such funds back to the applicable Account at any earlier time. 

  

	 	(c)	Unless the Security Trustee has received notice as set out in Section 6.1(b) (Security Trustee Action Generally — Control of Accounts) that a Loan Facility Declared Default, Indenture Declared Default
or any other Declared Event of Default has occurred and is Continuing, and until a notice is delivered to the Account Bank pursuant to Section 4.6(b)(i) (Control and Investment of Funds in Accounts), the Company also may submit
instructions directly (or by instructions made through the Account Bank) to the Third Party Account Bank to invest the funds in, or that are expected to be transferred into, the Third Party Investment Account in Authorized Investments. Concurrently
with delivery of a notice to the Account Bank pursuant to Section 4.6(b)(i) (Control and Investment of Funds in Accounts), the Security Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Third Party Account Bank (with a copy to the Company, the
Account Bank and each Senior Creditor Group Representative) directing it to cease accepting instructions from, and providing management access to, the Company (and, if relevant, from the Manager to whom the Company has granted a power of attorney or
signature authority over the Accounts as permitted under Section 4.1(e) (General Principles)) with respect to the Third Party Investment Account. Concurrently with delivery of a notice to the Account Bank pursuant to Section 4.6(d)
(Control and Investment of Funds in Accounts), the Security Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Third Party Account Bank with a copy to the Company directing it once again to take instructions from the Company in accordance with the first
sentence of this clause (c) rather than exclusively from the Security Trustee. 

  

	 	(d)	If the Account Bank receives a notice from the Security Trustee under Section 4.6(b)(i) (Control and Investment of Funds in Accounts) of this Agreement, the Security Trustee may deliver instructions directly
to the Third Party Account Bank or may direct the Account Bank to transmit to the Third Party Account Bank directions, notices or other documents received only from the Security Trustee until a notice is delivered by the Security Trustee to the
Account Bank pursuant to and in accordance with Section 4.6(d) (Control and Investment of Funds in Accounts) of this Agreement with respect to the relevant Declared Event(s) of Default. 









	 	(e)	All funds in the Third Party Investment Account shall only be invested in Authorized Investments as selected by the Company (or the Security Trustee on behalf of the Company). Cash, monies or funds in the Third Party
Investment Account and the Authorized Investments in which such monies are then invested and the proceeds of those investments shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement governing Authorized Investments, including but not limited to
Section 4.2 (Authorized Investments), modified as necessary to reflect the arrangements between the Company, the Security Trustee, the Account Bank and the Third Party Account Bank as set forth in this Section 4.11.


  

	 	(f)	For the avoidance of doubt, the security arrangements generally applicable to Accounts pursuant to this Agreement shall also apply to the Third Party Investment Account, with the Third Party Account Bank acting as Bank
