set forth in clause (b) of the definition of “Base Rate” and of fees and Letter of Credit Fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed (including
the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error. Each determination of the Issuing Bank of the Reimbursement Obligation hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Advances shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of
time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fee, as the case may be. 
 (e) Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers
have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such
Lender. If and to the extent the Borrowers shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 

Section 2.09 Taxes. 
 (a) All amounts payable by any Obligor under the Loan Documents (or by any other Person on account of any obligation of any Obligor under the Loan Documents) shall be paid free and clear of and without
deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, wire transfer fees or other charges or withholdings of any nature, except to the extent that the deduction or withholding of any Tax is required by applicable law, in which event such Obligor
shall (i) give the Administrative Agent prompt written notice of such requirement, (ii) except to the extent (if any) that such Tax is an Excluded Tax, pay to the Person entitled to receive such payment (the “Payee”) such
additional amount as is necessary so that the Payee receives, after such deduction or withholding (including any withholding with respect to such additional amount), an amount equal to the amount that the Payee would have received if such deduction
or withholding had not been made, (iii) make the deduction or withholding required by applicable law and pay the amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iv) deliver to the
Administrative Agent as soon as practicable after the date of such payment the original (or a certified copy of) a receipt issued by such Taxing Authority evidencing its receipt of such payment or, if such Taxing Authority does not issue receipts
for such Tax payments, other documentary evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 20 








 (b) The Obligors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the appropriate Taxing Authority when
due (and shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Arranger and each Secured Party and each of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and authorized representatives (each a “Tax Indemnitee”), upon
demand, from and against) all Taxes arising from or otherwise relating to (i) the Loan Documents or the Collateral, or (ii) the execution, delivery, issuance, acquisition, holding, ownership, transfer, assumption, filing, registration,
recording, performance, enforcement, amendment, supplement or other modification of any of the Loan Documents, or (iii) any payment by any Obligor or any other Person on account of any obligation of any Obligor under the Loan Documents, or
otherwise arising from or relating to the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents (including any penalties, interest, charges, costs and expenses relating thereto), whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by
the relevant Taxing Authority, provided that no Obligor shall have any obligation under this Section 2.09(b) to indemnify any Secured Party for the following Taxes (“Excluded Taxes”): (x) any Tax on or measured by the net
income of such Secured Party (or any franchise Tax imposed on such Secured Party in lieu of a net income Tax) imposed by any Taxing Authority in the jurisdiction in which the principal place of business or Applicable Lending Office of such Secured
Party is located or (y) any Tax imposed on such Secured Party as a result of a present or former connection between such Secured Party and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than a connection arising from the transactions contemplated in
the Loan Documents, including such Secured Party having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under, or enforced its rights under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document), or (z) any Tax imposed as a result of a failure of such Secured Party to comply with its obligations under Section 2.09(g). 
 (c) Each additional amount payable pursuant to Section 2.09(a) and each indemnity payable pursuant to Section 2.09(b) shall be paid on an “after-tax basis” which means that the amount
payable shall be increased by an amount (the “gross-up amount”) equal to the sum of all Taxes payable by any Payee or Tax Indemnitee with respect to the receipt or accrual of such payment (including the gross-up amount). 

(d) The indemnities contained in this Section 2.09 shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the expiration,
cancellation or termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and are expressly made for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by each Tax Indemnitee. 
 (e) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Advances or
from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Advances (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 

  
 21 








 (f) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender Party and the Administrative Agent for and hold
them harmless against the full amount of Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.09, imposed on or paid by such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent (as the case
may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Lender Party or the Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.09, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address
referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment or other documentary evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(g) Any Secured Party that is entitled, under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident or under any treaty to which
such jurisdiction is a party, to exemption from (or reduction of) a withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of the Borrower’s written request therefor
(accompanied by a copy of each requested form, any published instructions for such form, and an English translation of each such form and instruction that is not in English), deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such completed and
executed forms or other documents as (i) the Borrower may reasonably request and (ii) such Secured Party is legally entitled to provide and (iii) the Borrower is required by law to obtain to permit such payments to be made without
withholding (or subject to withholding at a reduced rate, as the case may be) any withholding Tax that would be required by law to be withheld from such payments in the absence of such document, provided that in the case of any such document that
must be provided, executed or endorsed by any Governmental Authority or other Taxing Authority, the failure of such Secured Party or the Borrower to receive such document from such Governmental Authority or other Taxing Authority within a reasonable
time shall not be deemed to be a failure to comply with this Section 2.09(g) so long as such Secured Party is using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such document, and provided, further, that no Secured Party shall have any obligation
to deliver any document pursuant to this Section 2.09 if such Secured Party determines that delivering such document is reasonably likely to result in such Secured Party incurring or suffering a non-de-minimis liability, loss, cost, expense or
other adverse consequence. 
 (h) Any Lender Party claiming any indemnity or additional amounts payable pursuant to this
Section 2.09 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or
reduce the amount of, any such indemnity or additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party. 

Section 2.10 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the
exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.09 or Section 9.04(c) or pursuant to that certain Deposit Account Control Agreement dated as of April 19,
2012 between PDGL, as grantor and DVB Bank SE, Nordic Branch, as Secured Party in respect of the Deposit Account (described thereunder)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender
shall forthwith purchase from the other 

  
 22 








 
Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the
extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing
Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10
may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation. 
 Section 2.11 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be used to pay the Reimbursement
Obligations to the Issuing Bank. 
 Section 2.12 Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit.

 (a) Letters of Credit. The Issuing Bank agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to issue on the
Initial Extension of Credit Date a standby letter of credit (each individually, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrowers in favor of the relevant TI Bond
Issuing Bank, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit K, in an aggregate face amount not to exceed the Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business in New York
on the first anniversary of the date of issuance thereof, provided that such Letter of Credit may, upon request of the Borrowers include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit may be renewed for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or
less, subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(i), provided that the consent of the Issuing Bank of such Letter of Credit will be required for any such renewal, as set forth in Section 2.12(i), and provided further
however that the initial issuance of the initial Letter of Credit shall be not later than April 30, 2012. Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Naira, provided that the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligation in respect thereof
shall be in U.S. Dollars. For the avoidance of doubt, each drawing under a Letter of Credit shall permanently reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of the Issuing Bank in the amount of such drawing regardless whether or not the Issuing Bank is
reimbursed such amount drawn. 
 (b) Request for Issuance. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not
later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day prior to the date of the proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit, by the Borrowers to the Issuing Bank, which shall give to the Administrative Agent and each Lender prompt notice
thereof by telecopier. Each such notice of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Issuance”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, specifying
therein the requested (A) date of such issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (B) Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, (C) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter
of Credit and (E) form of such Letter of Credit, and shall be accompanied by such application and agreement for letter of credit as the Issuing Bank may specify to the Borrowers for use in connection with the requested Letter of


  
 23 








 
Credit (the “Letter of Credit Agreement”). The Notice of Issuance shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers. The Issuing Bank will, upon fulfillment of the applicable
conditions set forth in Article III make such Letter of Credit available to the Borrowers at its office referred to in Section 9.02 or as otherwise agreed with the Borrowers in connection with such issuance. In the event and to the extent
that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have acquired a risk participation in
such Letter of Credit to the extent of its Pro Rata Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit. 
 (c) Drawing and
Reimbursement. The payment by the Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under a Letter of Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by the Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Advance, in the
amount of the Reimbursement Obligation relating to such draft as of the date of such Letter of Credit Advance as specified by the Issuing Bank from time to time. Upon written demand by the Issuing Bank, with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent, each Lender shall make, to the extent of its Commitment, an Advance in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Issuing Bank’s outstanding Letter of Credit Advance as of such date in order to refinance
the Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Advance, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in
immediately available funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Letter of Credit Advance to be made by such Lender; provided, that, at any time prior to the date on which such written demand is
made, the Borrowers shall be permitted to repay the full amount of such payment on same-day notice to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank. Promptly after receipt of such payment, the Administrative Agent shall transfer such funds to the
Issuing Bank. The Borrowers hereby agree to each Letter of Credit Advance. Each Lender agrees to make its Letter of Credit Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by the Issuing Bank, provided notice of such
demand is given not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. Upon any such refinancing by any Lender of a
portion of a Letter of Credit Advance made by the Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank represents and warrants to such Lender that the Issuing Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, free and clear of any liens, but
makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Letter of Credit Advance, the Loan Document or any Obligor. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Letter of Credit
Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by the Issuing Bank until the date such amount
is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for its account or the account of the Issuing Bank, as applicable. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of the Issuing Bank on any Business
Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Letter of Credit Advance made by the
Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day. 

  
 24 








 (d) Failure to Make Letter of Credit Advances. The failure of any Lender to make the
Letter of Credit Advance to be made by it on the date specified in Section 2.12(c) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Letter of Credit Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the
failure of any other Lender to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on such date. 
 (e) Letter
of Credit Advances. (i) Upon a Lender making available to the Administrative Agent the amount of the Letter of Credit Advance refinanced pursuant to Section 2.12(c), such amount of such Letter of Credit Advance shall be deemed to be
payable to such Lender. The amount of any Advance in excess of the total Commitments of the Lenders shall be payable to the Issuing Bank. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing
Bank and each Lender that has a Letter of Credit Advance on the earliest of (y) the date such Letter of Credit Advance is required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.04 and (z) the Termination Date, the outstanding principal amount of
each Letter of Credit Advance made by each of them. 
 (ii) The obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement with respect
to each Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement and any other agreement or instrument relating to a Letter of Credit, including without limitation, the obligation to repay any Advance arising from a drawing on a Letter of Credit, shall be
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Agreement and such other agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following
circumstances and regardless of the use of proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or any defense related thereto: 

(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the “L/C Related Documents”); 
 (B) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any L/C Related Document or any other amendment or waiver
of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents; 
 (C) the existence of any claim, set off, defense
or other right that any Borrower or any other Person may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank or any
other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the L/C Related Documents or any unrelated transaction; 
 (D) any statement or any other document presented under a 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; 
 (E) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that
does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 

  
 25 








 (F) any exchange, release or non perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment
or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the L/C Related Documents; or 
 (G) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder or any other guarantor. 
 (f) Limited Liability of
the Issuing Bank. The Obligors assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of each Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors
shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of a Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any
endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by the Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter
of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to such Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under a Letter of Credit, except that the
Borrowers shall have a claim against the Issuing Bank, and the Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrowers, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by the Borrowers that the Borrowers prove were caused by (i) the
Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) the Issuing Bank’s willful failure to make lawful payment
under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank may accept documents
that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary. 
 (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing
Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give
or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligations to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Collateral Accounts. 
 (i) (A) L/C Cash Collateral Account.
If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing on the Business Day that the Borrowers receive notice from the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this
Section 2.12(h), the Borrowers hereby agree to deposit an amount equal to the aggregate amount available at such time to be drawn under the Letters of Credit (such aggregate amount as determined from time to time being the “Required
Balance”) in a cash collateral account to be established by PDGL and maintained by the Administrative Agent 

  
 26 








 
pursuant to a Cash Collateral Agreement over which the Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control (the “L/C Cash Collateral Account”) in Naira or U.S. Dollars, or
both, as the Issuing Bank may require or as the Borrowers may elect subject to the consent of the Issuing Bank, upon terms substantially set forth in such Cash Collateral Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.12(h)(i), above (but without duplication), the Borrowers shall maintain at all times in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, in Naira or U.S. Dollars, or both, an amount not less than 10.5% of the Required Balance (such amount, the
“Minimum Required Balance”) provided, however, that in no event shall the Minimum Required Balance ever be less than 10.5% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders set forth in Schedule I hereto. The Administrative
Agent shall, at the Borrowers’ direction and without assuming any risk of loss thereof, invest the funds in the L/C Cash Collateral Account in Cash Equivalents for the account of the Borrowers. All interest and other investment gains earned on
such investments shall be added to the L/C Cash Collateral Account as additional collateral security for the prompt and complete payment when due of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers and under and in respect of each Letter of Credit.
On (i) the last Business Day of each calendar week, the Administrative Agent or (ii) any other date that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders through the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank shall in writing
request, the Administrative Agent shall determine whether the amount on deposit on such date in the L/C Cash Collateral Account (A) is greater than the Minimum Required Balance or the Required Balance, as the case may be, on such date (the
amount of such excess being the “Excess Amount”) or (B) is less than the Minimum Required Balance or the Required Balance, as the case may be, on such date (the amount of such deficit being the “Deficit
Amount”). The Administrative Agent shall advise the Borrowers on the date of determination of the existence, if any, of any Excess Amount or Deficit Amount and thereafter (i) the Borrowers shall immediately upon receipt of notice from
the Administrative Agent of the existence of any Deficit Amount, pay to the Administrative Agent for deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account or the FX Cash Collateral Account, as the Administrative Agent shall determine, as additional funds to be
deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to such Deficit Amount or (ii) upon request of the Borrowers within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of the existence of any
Excess Amount, the Administrative Agent shall release to the Borrowers from the funds on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to such Excess Amount provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If at
any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, which right or claim could
reasonably have the effect of reducing the value of such funds to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, the Borrowers will, forthwith upon receipt of a demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be
deposited and held in such L/C Cash Collateral Account, an amount equal to the amount by which the value of such funds to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank has been reduced as determined by the Administrative Agent. 

(B) FX Cash Collateral Account. PDGL hereby agrees to establish, on or before the second Business Day before the Initial Extension
of Credit Date, a foreign exchange cash collateral account in the name of PDGL and maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the FX Cash Collateral Agreement over which the Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control (the
“FX Cash Collateral Account”) in U.S. Dollars, upon terms substantially set forth in such FX Cash Collateral Agreement. 

  
 27 








 (ii) PDGL hereby grants to the Administrative Agent a security interest in any amounts from
time to time on deposit in each of the L/C Cash Collateral Account and the FX Cash Collateral Account as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment when due of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers under and in respect of
each Letter of Credit. 
 (iii) The Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agree that any action
taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent in connection with the L/C Cash Collateral Account and/or the FX Cash Collateral Account, if taken or omitted to be taken in good faith and with reasonable care, shall be binding upon the
Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders and shall not create any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent to Borrowers, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders. 
 (i) Renewal of Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit may automatically extend or renew for one or more, but not more than two (2), additional successive one-year periods beyond its stated expiry
date as herein provided in this Section 2.12(i). 
 In the event that, at least forty (40), but not more than forty-five
(45), days before such then-current expiry date, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent have received from the Owner an irrevocable written notice (a “Notice of Extension”) requesting a one-year extension of a Letter of
Credit, such Letter of Credit shall automatically extend for such additional one-year period, unless the Issuing Bank sends written notice to the Owner at least twenty (20), but not more than thirty (30), days before the then-current expiry date of
its decision not to so extend such Letter of Credit. 
 In any event, if an event of default has occurred and is continuing
under the PFA, the Issuing Bank shall not extend a Letter of Credit beyond its then-current term if it has received at least twenty-five (25), but not more than thirty (30), days before the then-current expiry date of such Letter of Credit, a
request from Lenders holding at least two-thirds (2/3) of the outstanding Commitments and Advances. 
 Each Notice of
Extension shall be accompanied by a certificate signed by the Obligors to the effect that: 
 (1) All representations and
warranties of the Obligors are true and correct on and as of the date of the Notice of Extension, before and after giving effect to such Notice of Extension and the extension or renewal of the relevant Letter of Credit as therein requested.

 (2) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from the extension or renewal of the
relevant Letter of Credit as therein requested. 
 (3) The Vessel has not suffered a Total Loss or Major Casualty Event (as
defined in the PFA). 
 Section 2.13 Cash Security Pricing. PDGL may, at the time of issuance or any renewal of a
Letter of Credit, deposit in a cash collateral account of PDGL held by the Administrative Agent for the sole benefit of the Issuing Bank all or any portion of the face amount of each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of the portion so
collateralized. Any such cash collateral 

  
 28 








 
shall be held in the collateral account for the entire then-existing one-year term of each such Letter of Credit and will be subject to application as collateral for the Reimbursement Obligations
owed and that may be owed to the Issuing Bank. Such cash collateral shall be in the amount of U.S. Dollars specified by the Issuing Bank as equivalent to the Naira amount to be secured; the U.S. Account Parties agree to make additional
U.S. Dollar cash collateral deposits on request of the Issuing Bank to account for fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar/Naira exchange rate advised from time to time by the Issuing Bank (and, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, the Issuing Bank shall likewise return any excess amounts to account for fluctuations such exchange rate from time to time upon request of PDGL). The cash security arrangement will have such features as the Issuing Bank advises may be
required to satisfy Office of Currency Control and Federal Reserve guidance for capital adequacy in cash secured engagements. Upon written request of PDGL to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank given at least thirty (30) days prior to
the then-scheduled expiry date of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall return to PDGL all amounts remaining in such cash collateral account relating to such Letter of Credit following expiry of such Letter of Credit and its return to
the Issuing Bank, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing. 
 Section 2.14 Special
Cash Collateralization. In the event that for any reason the debt obligations of PDL and PSL under the PFA and the other debt obligations of the other obligors therein named have been paid or prepaid in full and all the commitments of the
lenders under the PFA have been terminated, then the U.S. Account Parties shall deposit in an account of PDGL with the Administrative Agent as security for their Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and PIDWAL’s
obligations under the TI Bonds, an amount in U.S. dollars equal to 105% of the amount, specified by the Issuing Bank, that would have been required to be paid as reimbursement under each Letter of Credit had a drawing of the full amount of the
relevant TI Bond then been made, to be held as such security for so long as each relevant TI Bond shall be outstanding. Such cash collateral shall be in the amount of U.S. Dollars specified by the Issuing Bank as equivalent to the Naira amount to be
secured; the U.S. Account parties agree to make additional U.S. Dollar cash collateral deposits on request of the Issuing Bank to account for fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar/Naira exchange rate advised from time to time by the Issuing Bank
(and, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuing Bank shall likewise return any excess amounts to account for fluctuations such exchange rate from time to time upon request of PDGL). The cash security
arrangement will have such features as the Issuing Bank advises may be required to satisfy Office of Currency Control and Federal Reserve guidance for capital adequacy in cash secured engagements. Upon written request of PDGL to the Administrative
Agent and the Issuing Bank given at least thirty (30) days prior to the then-scheduled expiry date of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall return to PDGL all amounts remaining in such cash collateral account relating to such
Letter of Credit following expiry of such Letter of Credit and its return to the Issuing Bank, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing. 
 Section 2.15 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (i) requests reimbursement for amounts owing or the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.07 or Section 2.09, or
(ii) does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby

purpose) has been obtained), then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent and with the consent of the Issuing Bank, require
such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.07), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such

for compensation under Section 2.07 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.09, 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 Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

 46 








 Further to the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 6.01, so long as at least 105% of the
face amount of each Letter of Credit is cash collateralized in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 (h) hereof, none of the following items listed in the first sentence of this Section 6.01 shall be an “Event of
Default” under this Agreement: (b), (c), (d), (e), (g), (h), (i), (k), (n), or (o). 
 Except as expressly provided above in this Section,
presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived. 
 Section 6.02 Actions in
Respect of the Letters of Credit upon Default. With respect to a Letter of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Borrowers shall at such
time deposit in a non-interest bearing cash collateral account opened by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Available Amount of such Letter of Credit then outstanding, and the
Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders a security interest in all funds so deposited to and from time to time held (in the form of cash, certificates or
instruments) in the cash collateral account and proceeds thereof. The Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall thereafter enter into documentation reaffirming the grant of the security interest hereunder and otherwise relating to such cash
collateral account in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent shall, at the Borrowers’ direction and without assuming any risk of loss thereof, invest the funds in the cash
collateral account in Cash Equivalents for the account of the Borrowers. All interest and other investment gains earned on such investments shall be added to the cash collateral account as additional collateral security for the prompt and complete
payment when due of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers under and in respect of the Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such
Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after such Letter of Credit shall has expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the Advances. If at any time the
Administrative Agent determines that any funds held in such cash collateral account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, which right or claim could reasonably have the
effect of reducing the value of such funds to the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit, the Borrowers will, forthwith upon receipt of a demand by
the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds in Dollars to be deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to (a) the amount by which the value of such funds to the Lenders and the
Issuing Bank has been reduced, or (b) the excess of (i) such aggregate Available Amount over (ii) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in such cash collateral account, respectively. On or after the date all such Letters of
Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the Advances then due and payable shall have been paid in full and the TI
Bonds shall have expired or been cancelled, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrowers. 

  
 47 








 Section 6.03 Lender Parties’ Notice to Intercreditor Agent. If an Event of
Default or a Default either occurs or ceases to be continuing, the Lender Parties, upon becoming aware of that occurrence or cessation, shall notify the Intercreditor Agent in accordance with the terms of the ICA. 

Section 6.04 Acknowledgment of Intercreditor Agreement. The Lender Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the exercise of
remedies under this Agreement shall be subject to and in accordance with the express provisions of the ICA. Any notice of default given to the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be deemed to be expressly stated to be subject to the terms of the
ICA.

Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral security for all or any of the PDSA Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Document Party under the L/C Related Documents or any other assets of any
Document Party or any of its Subsidiaries; 
 (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or
existence of any Document Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

any Lender to disclose to any Document Party or the Guarantor any information relating to the financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of any Document Party now or in the future known to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
Lender (the Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or Lenders to disclose such information); or 
 (g) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender
that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Document Party, the Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety (other than the defense of payment or performance). 

The guaranty contained in this Article VII shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of
the PDSA Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or Lender or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Document Party or otherwise, all as
though such payment had not been made.

existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Guarantor’s Obligations under the guaranty contained in this Article VII or any other L/C Related Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement,

Lender Parties. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to any Document Party or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or
received in any capacity other than as the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 8.04 Party Credit Decision. Each Lender
Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. 
 Section 8.05 Indemnification. 
 (a) Each Lender Party severally agrees
to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Obligors) from and against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action
taken or omitted 

  
 52 








 
by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be liable for any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final,
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Obligors under Section 9.04, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Obligors. In the case of any investigation,
litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender Party or any other Person. 

(b) Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify the Issuing Bank (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrowers) from and
against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may
be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender
Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in
a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party agrees to reimburse the Issuing Bank promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Obligors under Section 9.04, to the extent that the Issuing Bank is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Obligors. 

(c) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the Lender Parties’ respective ratable shares of any amount shall be determined, at any
time, according to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Advances outstanding at such time and owing to the respective Lender Parties and (ii) their respective Pro Rata Shares of the aggregate Available Amount of the Letters
of Credit outstanding at such time; provided that the aggregate principal amount of Letter of Credit Advances owing to the Issuing Bank shall be considered to be owed to the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The
failure of any Lender Party to reimburse the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lender Parties to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender Party of its obligation hereunder to reimburse the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender
Party shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender Party to reimburse the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such other Lender Party’s ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of
any other agreement of any Lender Party hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender Party contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents. 

  
 53 








 Section 8.06 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign
at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lender Parties and the Borrowers; provided, however, that any removal of the Administrative Agent will not be effective until it has also been replaced as the Issuing Bank and
released from all of its obligations in respect thereof. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, provided, however, that if no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to approval of the Borrowers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). 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 or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on
behalf of the Lender Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, provided, however, that if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to approval of the Borrowers (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld), which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Collateral Documents, and such other
instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, such successor Administrative Agent
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan
Documents. If within forty five (45) days after written notice is given of the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal under this Section 8.06 no successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed and shall have
accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (a) the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal shall become effective, (b) the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and
obligations under the Loan Documents and (c) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
Administrative Agent as provided above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the Required Lenders determine that the Person serving as Administrative Agent
is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” requiring notice from the Administrative Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) of the definition thereof, the
Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to Section 9.01) may by notice to the Borrowers and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and , in consultation with the Borrowers, appoint a replacement Administrative Agent
hereunder. Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the earlier of (i) the date a replacement Administrative Agent is appointed and (ii) the date thirty (30) days after the giving of such
notice by the Required Lenders (regardless of whether a replacement Administrative Agent has been appointed). 

  
 54 








 Section 8.07 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and
all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all
of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties (for purposes of this Section 8.07, “Related Parties” means, with respect to any Person, such Person’s Affiliates and the
partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors and representatives of such Person and of such Person’s Affiliates). 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 in connection with the syndication of the Facilities as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents 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-agents. 
 Section 8.08 Resignation of Issuing Bank. In addition to
the foregoing, if a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank may, upon prior written notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, resign as Issuing Bank effective at the close of business New
York time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than thirty (30) days after the date of such notice); provided that such resignation by the Issuing Bank will have no effect on the validity or enforceability of
any Letter of Credit then outstanding or on the obligations of the Borrowers or any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such outstanding Letter of Credit or otherwise to the Issuing Bank. 

ARTICLE IX 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 9.01 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by any Document Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless
the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders affected by such amendment, waiver or comment, do any of the following: (a) waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01, (b) increase the Commitments
of the Lenders or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations, (c) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances, any Reimbursement Obligation or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder (provided that any Lender may

any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, (e) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Advances or of the aggregate Available

extent otherwise permitted hereunder; and provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Issuing Bank, in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights
or obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement; provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such
action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under this Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Commitment and the outstanding Advances or other extensions of credit of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into
account in determining whether the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definition of “Required Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration
of such period); provided, that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender
hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder,
or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. This Section 9.01 is subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.

 If any one or more Obligors are required herein to furnish or deliver any documents or
notices such obligations shall be satisfied with respect to such Obligor to the extent such documents or notices are delivered or furnished by any other Obligor in the name of such Obligor or by and on behalf of any one or more of the Obligors in
the name of such Obligor. Any notice or other communication by any one or more Obligors in connection herewith may be effectuated in the same manner. Each Obligor hereby irrevocably authorizes each other Obligor to deliver notices and documents on
its behalf as provided in this paragraph. 
 The Obligors agree that the Administrative Agent may make any communication
available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by posting the communications on Intralinks, Fixed Income Direct or a substantially similar electronic transmission systems (the “Platform”). The Obligors acknowledge 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. 
 THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE
PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY 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 AGENT PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THE RESPECTIVE
OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ITS RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES (COLLECTIVELY, “AGENT PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LENDER PARTY, ANY OBLIGOR 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 THE TRANSMISSION BY ANY OBLIGOR, ANY LENDER PARTY, ANY OF THE
AGENT PARTIES OR ANY OTHER PERSON OF ANY COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH
AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. 
 The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of any
communications by the Administrative Agent at its email address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of such communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender Party agrees that notice to it (as
provided in the next sentence) specifying that any communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender Party agree to notify the
Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender Party’s 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.

 Section 9.03 No Waiver; Remedies, Entire Agreement. No failure on the part of
any Lender Party or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement of the
parties with respect hereto. 
 Section 9.04 Costs and Expenses; Indemnity; Power of Attorney; Currency Conversion.

 (a) The Obligors agree to pay on demand (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent
in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of, or any consent or waiver under, the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all due diligence, collateral review, syndication (including
costs and expenses related to printing, distribution and bank meetings), transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, audit, insurance, consultant, search, filing and recording fees and expenses, provided that the Obligors shall only be
responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of Holland & Knight LLP, one local Nigerian counsel and one local British Virgin Islands counsel as the Administrative Agent may appoint, as counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect
thereto, with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and responsibilities, or the perfection, protection or preservation of rights or interests, under the Loan Documents, with respect to negotiations with any Document Party or
with other creditors of any Document Party or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of any Default or any events or circumstances that may give rise to a Default and with respect to presenting claims in or otherwise participating in or monitoring any
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding involving creditors’ rights generally and any proceeding ancillary thereto) and (ii) all costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party in connection with the
enforcement of the Loan Documents, whether in any action, suit or litigation, or any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of
counsel for the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party with respect thereto). 
 (b) The Obligors agree to indemnify, defend
and save and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Lender Party and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, and shall
pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising
out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Facilities, the TI Bonds, the TI Bond
Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the Letters of Credit, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of
any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating in any way to any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a
court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (y) such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith or (z) claims solely 

  
 58 








 
between or among Indemnified Parties not involving any Obligor. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(c) applies, such
indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Obligor, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is
otherwise a party thereto. Each Obligor also agrees and will ensure that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries will assert any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lender Party or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the
Letters of Credit, the TI Bonds, the TI Bond Facility, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. 
 (c) If any Obligor fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such
amount may be paid on behalf of such Obligor by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party, in its sole discretion. 
 (d)
Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Obligor hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of the Obligors contained in Sections 2.07 and 2.08 and this Section 9.04, and the obligations of
PDSA set forth in Article VII of this Agreement shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents. 

(e) (i) If for the purposes of obtaining or enforcing judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency
(the “Primary Currency”) into another currency (the “Secondary Currency”), the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could, in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, purchase the Primary Currency with such Secondary Currency at Citibank’s principal office in New York, New York at
11:00 A.M. (New York time) on the second Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. 
 (ii) The obligation of
any Obligor in respect of any sum due from it in any Primary Currency to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or order in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on
the Business Day following receipt by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Secondary Currency, such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case
may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary Currency with the Secondary Currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender, the Issuing Bank
or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, each Obligor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the
case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such
Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit such excess to the applicable Obligor. 

  
 59 








 Section 9.05 Right of Set off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of
Section 6.01 or otherwise with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, to set off and otherwise apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, such Lender Party or such Affiliate to or
for the credit or the account of each Document Party against any and all of the Obligations of the Document Party now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents to the Secured Parties, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or such
Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Advance or Advances and although such Obligations may be unmatured; provided, however, that rights set forth in this Section 9.05 shall only apply in the event
that the debt obligations of PDL and PSL under the PFA and the other debt obligations of the other obligors therein named have been paid or prepaid in full and all the commitments of the lenders under the PFA have been terminated. The Administrative
Agent and each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify such Document Party after any such set off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application;
provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with
the provisions of Section 2.17(a) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders and
(y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of the
Administrative Agent and each Lender Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set off) that the Administrative Agent, such Lender Party and
their respective Affiliates may have. 
 Section 9.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it
shall have been executed by the Obligors and the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender Party that such Initial Lender Party has executed it, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the Obligors, the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Obligor shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior
written consent of the Lender Parties. 
 Section 9.07 Assignments and Participations. 

(a) Each Lender, with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, of PDL, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, may, and, in
the case of a Lender if demanded by the Borrowers (following a demand by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.09) upon at least five (5) Business Days’ notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, will, assign to one


  
 60 








 
or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Commitments and the Advances owing to
it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of the Facility, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a
Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such
assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) except in the case of an
assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Commitment of the assigning Lender shall in no event be less than $10,000,000, (iv) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee,
(v) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by PDL pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) shall be arranged by PDL after consultation with the Administrative Agent and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations
of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning
Lender under this Agreement, (vi) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by PDL pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either
the Borrowers or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal
amount and all other amounts then due and payable to such Lender under this Agreement and (vii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an
Assignment and Acceptance, and such Assignee will accede to the terms of the ICA (if not already a party thereto as a TI Bond Facility Creditor) and pay a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided further that if such
assignment is to an Eligible Assignee which is a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Lender or the controlling corporation of such Lender, no consent of the Borrower shall be required for such assignment. Upon such
execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been
assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant
to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section 9.07(a), no such assignment will be made to any Defaulting Lender or its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause. 

  
 61 








 In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender
hereunder, no such assignment under this Section 9.07(a) will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent
in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay
and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full
share of all Advances pro rata on the basis of its original Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under Applicable Law
without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

(b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and
agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with the Loan Documents or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Document Party or the performance or observance by any Document Party of any of its respective
obligations under the Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in
Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon
the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement;
(v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents

obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error, and the Obligors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for

this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain
the holder and sole payee of any such Advance for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Obligors, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and (v) any agreement 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

 (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed
assignee or participant any information relating to the Obligors furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Obligors; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to

assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, no such assignment to any Federal Reserve Bank shall require
such Federal Reserve Bank to accede to any intercreditor arrangement entered into in connection with the PFA.

and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Obligors that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub.L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the
“Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Obligor, which information includes the name and address of such Obligor and other information that will allow such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Obligor in accordance with the Patriot Act. Each Obligor shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions
as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lenders in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.
