GAAP prior to such change therein and (B) Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent and Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation
between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

ARTICLE 2 
 THE
COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS 
 Section 2.1 The Loans. 

(a) Borrowings. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make one or more
Loans to Borrower from time to time from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date for the Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount for such Lender at any time outstanding up to but not exceeding the amount of such Lender’s Commitment,
provided that the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders shall not exceed the least of (i) the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders, (ii) the Borrowing Base, and (iii) the Credit Facility Amount. Subject to the
foregoing limitations, and the other terms and provisions of this Agreement, Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow Loans hereunder. 

(b) Borrowing Procedure. Each Borrowing shall be made upon Borrower’s irrevocable notice to Administrative Agent,
which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing. Each telephonic notice by Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.1(b) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower. Each Borrowing of a LIBOR Portion shall be in a
principal amount of at least $1,000,000. Except as provided in Section 2.2(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to a Base Rate Portion shall be in a principal amount of at least $500,000. Each Borrowing Request (whether telephonic
or written) shall specify (i) the requested date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the principal amount the Portions to be borrowed, and (iii) the Type of Portions to be borrowed. 

(c) Funding. Following receipt of a Borrowing Request, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the
amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Portions. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at Administrative Agent’s Principal Office not later than 1:00 p.m.
on the Business Day specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.2 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 5.1),
Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to Borrower in like funds as received by Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of Borrower on the books of Texas Capital Bank with the amount of such funds or
(ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) Administrative Agent by Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date the Borrowing


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 28 








 
Request with respect to such Borrowing is given by Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of
any such L/C Borrowings, and second, shall be made available to Borrower as provided above. 
 (d) Continuations
and Conversions. The Applicable Rate shall be based upon LIBOR, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Base Rate Portions will not be available to Borrower, unless Administrative Agent elects to make them available in Administrative
Agent’s sole discretion, or unless otherwise required by Sections 3.2 or 3.3. If Borrower fails to specify a Type of Portion in a Borrowing Request, then the applicable Portion shall be made as a LIBOR Portion,
unless otherwise required by Sections 3.2 or 3.3. A LIBOR Portion may not be converted to a Base Rate Portion, unless Administrative Agent elects to permit such conversion in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion,
or unless otherwise required by Sections 3.2 or 3.3. 
 (e) Notifications. Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for LIBOR Portions upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Portions are outstanding, Administrative Agent shall
notify Borrower and Lenders of any change in Texas Capital Bank’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. 

Section 2.2 Letters of Credit. 

(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. 

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of
Lenders set forth in this Section 2.2, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of Borrower or
its Subsidiaries that are Guarantors, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) Lenders
severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of Borrower or its Subsidiaries that are Guarantors and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any
Letter of Credit, (x) the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders shall not exceed the lesser of the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders and the Borrowing Base, (y) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender shall not
exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a
representation by Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower’s
ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 29 








 
to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 

(ii) L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if: 

(A) the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve (12) months after the date of
issuance, unless Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or 
 (B) the expiry date of the requested Letter of
Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all Lenders have approved such expiry date. 
 (iii)
L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 
 (A) any order, judgment or decree of any
Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain L/C Issuer from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any
Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon L/C Issuer with respect to the
Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not
applicable on the Closing Date and which L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it; 
 (B) the issuance of the Letter of
Credit would violate one or more policies of L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally; 
 (C) except as
otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer, the Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $25,000; 

(D) the Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; 

(E) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of
Cash Collateral, satisfactory to L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with Borrower or such Lender to eliminate L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 12.22(a)(iv)) with respect to
the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole
discretion; or 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 30 








 (F) the Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of
the stated amount after any drawing thereunder. 
 (iv) L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if L/C Issuer would
not be permitted at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. 
 (v) L/C Issuer
shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit
does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit. 
 (vi) L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of Lenders with
respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to Administrative Agent in Article 11 with respect to any acts
taken or omissions suffered by L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in
Article 11 included L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to L/C Issuer. 

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit. 

(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of Borrower delivered to L/C Issuer
(with a copy to Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application may be sent by facsimile, by United States mail, by
overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by L/C Issuer, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to L/C Issuer. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent not
later than 11:00 a.m. at least two (2) Business Days (or such later date and time as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as
the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of
Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing
thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as L/C Issuer may
require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed
date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 31 








 
matters as L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, Borrower shall furnish to L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit
issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent may require. 
 (ii) Promptly
after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, L/C Issuer will confirm with Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from Borrower and, if not, L/C
Issuer will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, Administrative Agent or any Obligated Party, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or
amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article 5 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date,
issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately
upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 
 (iii) Promptly after its delivery of any
Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, L/C Issuer will also deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or
amendment. 
 (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. 

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, L/C
Issuer shall notify Borrower and Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), Borrower shall reimburse L/C Issuer
through Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If Borrower fails to so reimburse L/C Issuer by such time, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed
drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount
equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 (other than the delivery of a Borrowing Request). Any notice given by L/C Issuer or
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding
effect of such notice. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 32 








 (ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to
Section 2.2(c)(i) make funds available (and Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of L/C Issuer at Administrative Agent’s Principal Office in an amount equal to its
Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(c)(iii), each
Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Loan (or, if the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are not satisfied, an L/C Borrowing as further described in clause (iii) below) to Borrower in such amount.
Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to L/C Issuer. 
 (iii) With respect to
any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing because the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from L/C Issuer an L/C
Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Interest Rate. In such event, each Lender’s
payment to Administrative Agent for the account of L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in
satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.2. 
 (iv)
Until each Lender funds its Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) to reimburse L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such
amount shall be solely for the account of L/C Issuer. 
 (v) Each Lender’s obligation to
make Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.2(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including
(A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against L/C Issuer, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other
occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans (but not its obligation to fund
it pro rata share of L/C Advances) pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 (other than delivery by Borrower of a Borrowing Request). No such making of an L/C Advance
shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrower to reimburse L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 

(vi) If any Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid
by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(c) by the time specified in Section 2.2(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, L/C Issuer shall be entitled
to recover from such Lender (acting through 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 33 








 
Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to L/C Issuer
at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by
L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the
relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 (d) Repayment of Participations. 

(i) At any time after L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender
such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.2(c), if Administrative Agent receives for the account of L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest
thereon (whether directly from Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by Administrative Agent), Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those
received by Administrative Agent. 
 (ii) If any payment received by Administrative Agent for the
account of L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 12.24 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by L/C Issuer in its
discretion), each Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by
such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this
Agreement. 
 (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse L/C Issuer for
each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document; 

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any
time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), L/C Issuer or any 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 34 








 
other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated
transaction; 
 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such 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; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such
Letter of Credit; 
 (iv) waiver by L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for L/C Issuer’s protection and not the
protection of Borrower or any waiver by L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice Borrower; 
 (v) honor of a
demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft; 

(vi) any payment made by L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the
expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable; 

(vii) any payment by L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not
strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator,
receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or 

(viii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other
circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower or any Subsidiary. 

Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the
event of any claim of noncompliance with Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, Borrower will immediately notify L/C Issuer. Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against L/C Issuer and its correspondents
unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
 (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each
Lender and Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit)
or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 35 








 
None of L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for
(i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of Required Lenders; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution,
effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any
Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the
beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of
the matters described in clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 2.2(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary
notwithstanding, Borrower may have a claim against L/C Issuer, and L/C Issuer may be liable to Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by Borrower which Borrower
proves were caused by L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly
complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, L/C Issuer 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, and L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. L/C Issuer may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide
Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary. 

(g) Applicability of ISP; Limitation of Liability. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by L/C Issuer and Borrower
when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to Borrower for, and L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against Borrower shall not be
impaired by, any action or inaction of L/C Issuer required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where
L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade -
International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit or other Issuer Document chooses such law or practice. 

(h) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. Borrower shall pay directly to L/C
Issuer for its own account an annual, 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 36 








 
non-refundable, fronting fee with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, in an amount separately agreed between Borrower and L/C Issuer. Such fee shall be due and payable upon the issuance or
renewal of such Letter of Credit. In addition, Borrower shall pay directly to L/C Issuer for its own account, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of L/C Issuer relating to
letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such fees, costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 

(i) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any
Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. 
 (j) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries.
Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such
Letter of Credit. Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of Borrower, and that Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such
Subsidiaries. 
 Section 2.3 Borrowing Base and Sublimits. 

(a) Borrowing Limitation. In addition to any and all limitations and conditions contained herein, Borrower shall
not be entitled to a Borrowing under the Credit Facility which would cause the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Borrowings, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon, together with the outstanding amount of all L/C Obligations,
to exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base, or (ii) the Credit Facility Amount. 
 (b)
Qualified Borrowing Base Property. Cash and Equivalents, Entitled Land, LUD, Lots, Model Houses, Pre-Sold Houses and Spec Houses for which all of the following conditions have been satisfied shall qualify as Borrowing Base Property, subject
to Administrative Agent’s absolute approval rights: (i) the proposed Borrowing Base Property must comply with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (ii) if requested by Administrative Agent, Borrower has delivered to
Administrative Agent documents reasonably necessary to determine whether the proposed Borrowing Base Property complies with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and (iii) Borrower has included such Borrowing Base Property in
the most recently submitted Borrowing Base Report which has been approved by Administrative Agent. 
 (c)
Credit Facility Term. All outstanding Obligations with respect to the Credit Facility shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. After the Maturity Date, Borrower shall have no right to either (i) submit any further Borrowing
Requests, or (ii) request that any new Borrowing Base Property be added to the Borrowing Base, and Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to honor any such requests.  

(d) Borrowing Base Reports. Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Report (i) when
required pursuant to Section 7.1, and (ii) concurrently with any Borrowing Request or Letter of Credit Application. The delivery 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 37 








 
to Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Base Report shall be a certification by Borrower that the facts represented therein are true, correct and complete as of the date of such Borrowing Base
Report. 
 (e) Total Cost Documentation. Upon Administrative Agent’s request, in connection with any
Borrowing Base Report, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent evidence of the Total Cost for each parcel of Entitled Land, LUD, Lot, Model House, Pre-Sold House and Spec House, in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent.

 (f) Borrowing Base Report Approval. Administrative Agent shall have the right to review and approve or
disapprove (and to make appropriate adjustments as contemplated in this Agreement for approval) each Borrowing Base Report; provided, however, until such Borrowing Base Report is approved or adjusted by Administrative Agent, the most recent
Borrowing Base Report submitted by Borrower and approved or adjusted, from time to time as herein contemplated, by Administrative Agent shall be in effect. The funding of a Borrowing based upon a Borrowing Base Report submitted to Administrative
Agent shall not be deemed to be an unconditional approval thereof. If Administrative Agent reasonably believes that any current or prior Borrowing Base Report is incomplete or inaccurate in any respect which causes the Credit Facility to be funded
in excess of what is specified in this Agreement, then the Borrowing Base shall be limited to such amount as Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be applicable in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement until such time as the
Borrowing Base Report is reasonably determined by Administrative Agent to be true, correct and complete. 
 (g)
Removal of Borrowing Base Property from Borrowing Base. If Administrative Agent reasonably determines that any portion of the Borrowing Base Property, although previously included in the Borrowing Base, is or becomes the subject of a
condition which violates any of the provisions hereof, or is materially impaired by casualty or condemnation, then Administrative Agent may remove such portion of the Borrowing Base Property from the Borrowing Base and such portion shall have a
Maximum Credit Amount of zero dollars ($0). If the condition is thereafter cured, the removed portion of the Borrowing Base Property may be thereafter included in the Borrowing Base, however, the date the portion of the Borrowing Base Property was
initially included in the Borrowing Base shall be used in calculation of the adjustments to the Borrowing Base for the determination of the Maximum Credit Amount as specified herein. 

(h) Spec House Sublimit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Spec Houses
included as Borrowing Base Property, at any one time, shall not exceed the Spec House Sublimit. 
 (i)
Completed Spec House Sublimit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Completed Spec Houses included as Borrowing Base Property, at any one time, shall not exceed the Completed Spec House Sublimit.


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 38 








 (j) Risk Assets Sublimit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the aggregate amount of all of the Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposure with respect to Risk Assets, at any one time, shall not exceed the Risk Assets Sublimit. The amount of Credit Facility proceeds used, requested by Borrower
or otherwise committed with respect to this Risk Assets Sublimit shall reduce on a pro tanto basis the amount of proceeds otherwise available under this Credit Facility. 

Section 2.4 Fees. 

(a) Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent and Arranger, for the account of Administrative Agent,
Arranger and each Lender, as applicable, fees, in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the Fee Letter. 

(b) Commitment Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance,
subject to Section 12.22, with its Applicable Percentage a commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender for the period from and including the date of this Agreement to and
including the Maturity Date for the Credit Facility (including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article 5 is not met), at a rate equal to the Commitment Fee Rate. For the purpose of
calculating the commitment fee hereunder, the Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed utilized by the amount of all outstanding Loans and L/C Obligations, owing to such Lender whether directly or by participation. Accrued commitment fees shall be
payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each April, July, October, and January during the term of this Agreement and on the Maturity Date for the Credit Facility. 

Section 2.5 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 

(a) General. All payments of principal, interest, and other amounts to be made by Borrower under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents shall be made to Administrative Agent for the account of Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer or the pro rata accounts of the applicable Lenders, as applicable, at the Principal Office in Dollars and immediately available funds,
without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, and free and clear of all taxes at the time and in the manner provided herein. Payments by check or draft shall not constitute payment in immediately available funds until the required amount is actually
received by Administrative Agent in full. Payments in immediately available funds received by Administrative Agent in the place designated for payment on a Business Day prior to 12:00 noon at such place of payment shall be credited prior to the
close of business on the Business Day received, while payments received by Administrative Agent on a day other than a Business Day or after 12:00 noon on a Business Day shall not be credited until the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment of
principal or interest on the Notes shall become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. Any such extension of time for payment shall be included in computing interest
which has accrued and shall be payable in connection with such payment. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized upon notice to Borrower to charge the account 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 39 








 
of Borrower maintained with Administrative Agent for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder. 

(b) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from a Lender, that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of a Borrowing, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with this
Agreement and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to Administrative Agent, then the applicable
Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of
payment to Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation,
and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the applicable Borrowing. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period,
Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such
Lender’s Loan. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent. 

(c) Payments by Borrower; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of L/C Issuer or the applicable Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has
made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to L/C Issuer or the applicable Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then L/C Issuer or each
applicable Lender, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to L/C Issuer or such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

Section 2.6 Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by
Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business; provided that such Lender or Administrative Agent may, in addition, request that such Loans be evidenced by the Notes. The Credit Extensions made by L/C Issuer shall be evidenced by one
or more accounts or records maintained by L/C Issuer and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, and each Lender shall be


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 40 








 
conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made to Borrower and, with respect to Letters of Credit issued for the account of a Subsidiary, such Subsidiary and the
interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict
between the accounts and records maintained by L/C Issuer, or any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest
error. 
 (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a) above,
each Lender and Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts
and records maintained by Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 

Section 2.7 Cash Collateral. 

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. If (i) L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under
any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, (ii) as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, (iii) Borrower shall be required to provide Cash Collateral
pursuant to Section 10.2, or (iv) there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, Borrower shall immediately (in the case of clause (iii) above) or within one (1) Business Day (in
all other cases) following any request by Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer, provide Cash Collateral in an amount not less than the applicable Minimum Collateral Amount (determined in the case of Cash Collateral provided pursuant to
clause (iv) above, after giving effect to Section 12.22(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). 

(b) Grant of Security Interest. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting
Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral, and in all
proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.7(c). If at any time Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject
to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, Borrower will, promptly upon demand by Administrative
Agent, pay or provide to Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in one or
more blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Texas Capital Bank. Borrower shall pay on demand therefor from time to time all customary account opening, activity and other administrative fees and charges in connection with the maintenance
and disbursement of Cash Collateral. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 41 








 (c) Application. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.7 or Sections 2.2, 10.2 or 12.22 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be
held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for
which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. 

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to
reduce Fronting Exposure or to secure other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender
status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 12.8(b)(vii)) or (ii) the determination by Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral;
provided, however, the Person providing Cash Collateral and L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting
Exposure or other obligations. 
 Section 2.8 Interest; Payment Terms. 

(a) Loans – Payment of Principal and Interest; Revolving Nature. The
unpaid principal amount of each Portion of the Loans shall, subject to the following sentence and Section 2.8(g), bear interest at the applicable Interest Rate. If at any time such rate of interest would exceed the Maximum Rate
but for the provisions thereof limiting interest to the Maximum Rate, then any subsequent reduction shall not reduce the rate of interest on the Loans below the Maximum Rate until the aggregate amount of interest accrued on the Loans equals the
aggregate amount of interest which would have accrued on the Loans if the interest rate had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. All accrued but unpaid interest on the principal balance of the Loans shall be payable on each Payment Date and on the
Maturity Date for the Credit Facility, provided that interest accruing at the Default Interest Rate pursuant to Section 2.8(g) shall be payable on demand. The then Outstanding Amount of the Loans
and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date for the Credit Facility. The unpaid principal balance of the Loans at any time shall be the total amount advanced hereunder by Lenders less the amount of
principal payments made thereon by or for Borrower, which balance may be endorsed on the Notes from time to time by Lenders or otherwise noted in Lenders’ and/or Administrative Agent’s records, which notations shall be, absent manifest
error, conclusive evidence of the amounts owing hereunder from time to time. 
 (b)
Rate Determination. The Interest Rate shall be adjusted as of the first Business Day of each Interest Period, and LIBOR shall be used to determine the Interest Rate for that Interest Period. The Interest Rate for
the first Interest Period (or fraction thereof) of this Credit Facility shall be determined on the Closing Date, and the Interest Rate shall remain fixed throughout the remainder of such Interest Period (or fraction thereof) until the first Business
Day of the following Interest Period (subject to the provisions of Section 12.19 of this Agreement). The Interest Rate for subsequent Interest Periods shall be re-determined, and adjusted if necessary, on each subsequent LIBOR
Determination Date, and the Interest Rate shall remain fixed throughout the applicable  

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 42 








 
Interest Period until the first Business Day of the following Interest Period (subject to the provisions of Section 12.19 of this Agreement). The determination by
Administrative Agent of the Interest Rate shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding in all respects. 

(c) Application. Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary, all
payments on the Obligations under the Loan Documents shall be applied in the following order of priority: (i) the payment or reimbursement of any expenses, costs or obligations (other than the Outstanding Amount thereof and interest thereon)
for which Borrower shall be obligated or Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, or any Lender shall be entitled pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents; (ii) the payment of accrued but unpaid interest
thereon; and (iii) the payment of all or any portion of the principal balance thereof then outstanding hereunder as directed by Borrower. If an Event of Default exists under this Agreement, the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents,
any such payment shall be applied as provided in Section 10.3 below. 
 (d)
Computation Period. Interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by Borrower hereunder on a per annum basis shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding
the last day) unless such calculation would result in a usurious rate, in which case interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year or 366-day year, as the case may be. In computing the number of days during which interest accrues, the
day on which funds are initially advanced shall be included regardless of the time of day such advance is made, and the day on which funds are repaid shall be included unless repayment is credited prior to the close of business on the Business Day
received. Each determination by Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(e) Unconditional Payment. Borrower is and shall be obligated to pay all principal, interest and any and all
other amounts which become payable under any of the Loan Documents absolutely and unconditionally and without any abatement, postponement, diminution or deduction whatsoever and without any reduction for counterclaim or setoff whatsoever. If at any
time any payment received by Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under any Debtor Relief Law, then the obligation to make such payment shall
survive any cancellation or satisfaction of the Obligations under the Loan Documents and shall not be discharged or satisfied with any prior payment thereof or cancellation of such Obligations, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation
enforceable in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, and such payment shall be immediately due and payable upon demand. 

(f) Partial or Incomplete Payments. Remittances in payment of any part of the
Obligations under the Loan Documents other than in the required amount in immediately available funds at the place where such Obligations are payable shall not, regardless of any receipt or credit issued therefor, constitute payment until the
required amount is actually received by Administrative Agent in full in accordance herewith and shall be made and accepted subject to the condition that any check or draft may be  

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 43 








 
handled for collection in accordance with the practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Administrative Agent of any payment in an amount less than the full amount then due
shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, and the failure to pay the entire amount then due shall be and continue to be an Event of Default. 

(g) Default Interest Rate. For so long as any Event of Default exists, regardless of whether or not there has
been an acceleration of the Loans, and at all times after the maturity of the Loans (whether by acceleration or otherwise), and in addition to all other rights and remedies of Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder, (i) interest shall accrue
on the Outstanding Amount of the Loans at the Default Interest Rate and (ii) interest shall accrue on any past due amount (other than the outstanding principal balance) at the Default Interest Rate, and such accrued interest shall be
immediately due and payable. Borrower acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ actual damages resulting from any late payment or Event of Default, and such accrued
interest are reasonable estimates of those damages and do not constitute a penalty. 
 Section 2.9 Prepayments.

 (a) Voluntary Prepayments. Subject to the conditions set forth below, Borrower shall have the right, at
any time and from time to time upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Administrative Agent, to prepay the principal of the Loans, in full or in part. If there is a prepayment of all or any portion of the principal of the
Loans on or before the Maturity Date for such Loans, whether voluntary or because of acceleration or otherwise, such prepayment shall also include (x) any and all accrued but unpaid interest on the amount of principal being so prepaid through
and including the date of prepayment, plus any other sums which have become due to Lenders under the other Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment, but which have not been fully paid.  

(b) Mandatory Prepayment of Credit Facility. If at any time the Revolving Credit Exposure of the Lenders exceeds
the Borrowing Base then in effect, then Borrower shall immediately prepay the entire amount of such excess to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of Lenders, and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to
such excess; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) unless after the prepayment in
full of the Loans, the Revolving Credit Exposure of the Lenders exceeds the Borrowing Base then in effect. Each prepayment required by this Section 2.9(b) shall be applied, first, to any Base Rate Portions then
outstanding, and, second, to any LIBOR Portions then outstanding, and if more than one LIBOR Portion is then outstanding, to such LIBOR Portions in such order as Borrower may direct, or if Borrower fails to so direct, as Administrative Agent shall
elect. 
 Section 2.10 Uncommitted Increase in Commitments. 

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly
notify the Lenders), Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Credit Facility Amount and the aggregate 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 44 








 
Commitments by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $80,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $20,000,000, and
(ii) Borrower may make a maximum of three such requests. At the time of sending such notice, Borrower (in consultation with Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no
event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). 
 (b) Lender
Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of
such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. 

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and each
Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld),
Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and its counsel. 

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section,
Administrative Agent and Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. 

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, Borrower shall deliver to
Administrative Agent a certificate of each Borrower dated as of the Increase Effective Date, signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower (x) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by Borrower approving or consenting to such increase,
and (y) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 6 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the
Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this
Section 2.10, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 7.1 shall be deemed
to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 7.1, (B) the proposed increase will not
violate the terms and conditions of the Bond Indenture, and (C) no Default exists. Additionally, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent (i) a non-refundable fee in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the amount of the
increase, for the account of each Lender that increases its Commitment, and (ii) any amounts set forth in the Fee Letter. Furthermore, Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts
required pursuant to Section 3.5) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 45 








 (f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any
provisions in Section 12.23 or 12.10 to the contrary. 

Section 2.11 Uncommitted Extension Option. 

(a) Request for Extension of Maturity Date. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to Administrative Agent
(which shall promptly notify the Lenders), Borrower may request to exercise the Extension Option; provided that (i) any such request for an extension must be delivered to Administrative Agent at least sixty (60), but not
more than one hundred twenty (120) days, prior to the initial Maturity Date, (ii) the extension request may only be granted by the unanimous written approval of Administrative Agent and all Lenders, as evidenced by an Extension Option
Agreement, (iii) Administrative Agent and each Lender may grant or withhold their approval in their sole discretion, and (iv), if Administrative Agent and each Lender approve Borrower’s request, then Borrower must pay the Extension Fee to
Administrative Agent on the Extension Option Agreement Date. At the time of sending such notice, Borrower (in consultation with Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no
event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). 
 (b) Lender
Elections to Extension. Each Lender shall notify Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to approve the Extension Option. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to approve
the Extension Option. 
 (c) Notification by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall notify
Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder.  
 (d) Conditions
to Effectiveness of Extension. As a condition precedent to such extension, (i) Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender shall execute an Extension Option Agreement, (ii) Borrower shall pay the Extension Fee to Administrative
Agent, and (iii) Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of Borrower, dated as of the Extension Option Agreement Date, signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower, certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by
Borrower approving or consenting to such extension, and (y) in the case of Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article
6 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Extension Option Agreement Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and
correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.11, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and
(b) of Section 7.1 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively,
of Section 7.1, and (B) no Default exists.  
 (e) Conflicting
Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 12.10 to the contrary. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 46 








 ARTICLE 3 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND INDEMNITY 

Section 3.1 Increased Costs. 

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

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

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

(b) Capital or Liquidity Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or
any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such
Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by such Lender or the Letters of Credit issued by L/C Issuer, to a level
below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital
adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 47 








 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender
setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 3.1(a) or (b) and delivered to Borrower,
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section 3.1 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section 3.1 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) -month period referred to above shall be
extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 Section 3.2 Illegality. If any Lender determines
that any law or regulation has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to LIBOR, or to
determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice
thereof by such Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Portions or to convert Base Rate Portions to LIBOR Portions shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts
the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Portions the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBOR component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Portions of such Lender shall, if necessary to
avoid such illegality, be determined by Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBOR component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such
determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Portions of such Lender to Base Rate Portions (the
interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBOR component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period
therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Portions to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Portions and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender
determining or charging interest rates based upon LIBOR, Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the LIBOR component thereof until Administrative Agent is
advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or
converted. 
 Section 3.3 Inability to Determine Rates. If (a) Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders
determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a LIBOR 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 48 








 
Portion or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest
Period of such LIBOR Portion, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Portion or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Portion, or
(iii) LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Portion does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such LIBOR Portion, or (b) by reason of any Change in Law any Lender would
become subject to restrictions on the amount of a category of liabilities or assets which it may hold and notifies Administrative Agent of same, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the
obligation of Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Portions shall be suspended, and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the LIBOR component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the LIBOR
component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a
Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Portions or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Portions in the amount specified therein. 

Section 3.4 Taxes. 

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 

(b) Payment Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan
Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding
of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.4) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(d) Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.4) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to
be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental 


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 49 








 
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or
on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e) Indemnification by Lenders.
Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified
Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.8
relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by
Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by
Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 3.4(e). 

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental
Authority pursuant to this Section 3.4, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. 

(g) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments
made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or
Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two (2) sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.4(g)(ii)(A),
(ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would
materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 50 








 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower
is a U.S. Person, 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to
the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from
U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver
to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable
request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) in the case of a Foreign
Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

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

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank”
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a
“controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed
originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial
owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other

 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 51 








 
Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on
behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally
entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and
to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D),
“FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

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

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has
received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.4 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.4), it shall pay to the indemnifying
party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such
indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 52 








 
indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 3.4(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in
the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.4(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any
amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 3.4(h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to
indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 3.4(h) shall not
be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this
Section 3.4 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of
all obligations under any Loan Document. 
 Section 3.5 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender
(with a copy to Administrative Agent) from time to time, Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Portion on a day other than the last day of the Interest
Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or 
 (b) any
failure by Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to lend a LIBOR Portion) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any LIBOR Portion on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower; or 

(c) any assignment of a LIBOR Portion on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a
result of a request by Borrower pursuant to Section 3.6(b); 
 including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or
expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged
by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to the Lenders
under this Section 3.5, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR Portion made by it at Adjusted LIBOR for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable
amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Portion was in fact so funded. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 53 








 Section 3.6 Mitigation of Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 3.1, or requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.4,
then such Lender shall (at the request of Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.4, as the case
may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender
in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender
requests compensation under Section 3.1, or if Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 3.4 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.6(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender
or a Non-Consenting Lender, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.8), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.1 or
Section 3.4) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
provided that: 
 (i) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent the
assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 12.8; 
 (ii) such Lender shall
have received payment of an amount equal to the Outstanding Amount of its Loans, and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under
Section 3.5) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 3.1 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.4, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 54 








 (v) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a
Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. 
 A Lender shall not be required to
make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

Section 3.7 Survival. All of Borrower’s obligations under this Article 3 shall
survive termination of the Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of Administrative Agent.

 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 76

hereof for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

promptly pay to Administrative Agent any amount expended by Administrative Agent in connection with such performance or attempted performance, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from and including the date of such
expenditure to but excluding the date such expenditure is paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly agreed that Administrative Agent shall not have any liability or responsibility for the performance of any covenant, agreement, or
other obligation of Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 Section 10.5 Setoff. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, the Guaranty or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, the Lenders and the Participants hereby waive any contractual, statutory or common law right to set off and apply against the Obligations
under the Loan Documents, any deposits of Borrower or any Guarantor, held by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, the Lenders or the Participants. The foregoing waiver does not alter or affect any setoff rights of Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, the
Lenders or the Participants with regard to obligations, indebtedness or liabilities of Borrower or any Guarantor, arising outside of the Loan Documents. 

ARTICLE 11 
 AGENCY

 Section 11.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Texas Capital Bank
to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof
or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 11 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Lenders and L/C Issuer, and neither Borrower nor any
other Obligated Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference
to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or
reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. Administrative Agent shall administer the Credit Facility in the same manner as it administers similar extensions of credit held for its own account. 

Section 11.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its
capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise
requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory
capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 78 








 
business with, Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. 

Section 11.3 Exculpatory Provisions. 

(a) Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent: 

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is
continuing; 
 (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except
discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be
expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or upon the advice of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or
that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of
property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; 
 (iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth
herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; and 
 (iv) shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to
take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any
such action. 
 (b) Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the
consent or at the request of Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in
Sections 10.2 and 11.9), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. SUCH LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LIABILITY ARISES FROM THE SOLE, CONCURRENT, CONTRIBUTORY OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 79 








 
unless and until notice describing such Default is given to Administrative Agent in writing by Borrower, a Lender or L/C Issuer, or Administrative Agent otherwise receives manifest written
evidence of such Default. 
 (c) Neither Administrative Agent nor any Related Party thereof shall be responsible for or have
any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder
or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 5 or elsewhere herein,
other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Administrative Agent. 
 Section 11.4 Reliance by
Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic
message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally
or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Credit Extension, that by its terms must be
fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior
to the making of such Loan. Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 Section 11.5 Delegation of Duties. 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 Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may
perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 11 shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of
Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of this facility as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 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 non-appealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of
such sub agents. 
 Section 11.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent. 

(a) Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lenders, L/C Issuer and Borrower. Upon receipt of
any such notice of resignation, 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 80 








 
Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned, to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation
(or such earlier day as shall be agreed by Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of Borrower, Lenders and L/C Issuer,
appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. After the
Resignation Effective Date, the provisions of this Article 11 relating to or indemnifying or releasing Administrative Agent shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 (b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent
is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent
and, with the consent of Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by Required
Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (ii) except for any indemnity, fee or expense payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all
payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, directly, until such time, if any, as Required Lenders appoint a
successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and
obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the
retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article 11, Section 12.1, and Section 12.2 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed
Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 81 








 (d) Any resignation by Texas Capital Bank as Administrative Agent pursuant to
this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer. If Texas Capital Bank resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of
Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require Lenders to make Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to
Section 2.2(c). Upon the appointment by Borrower of a successor L/C Issuer hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with
all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the
successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Texas Capital Bank to effectively assume the obligations of
Texas Capital Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 Section 11.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other
Lenders. Each Lender and L/C Issuer expressly acknowledges that neither Administrative Agent nor any other Lender nor any Related Party thereto has made any representation or warranty to such Person and that no act by Administrative Agent or any
other Lender hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Administrative Agent or any Lender to any other Lender. Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
this Agreement. Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from
time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except for
notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information
concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), or creditworthiness of Borrower or the value of the Borrowing Base Property or other Properties of Borrower or any other Person which may come into the possession of
Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 
 Section 11.8
Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Obligated Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal
of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention
in such proceeding or otherwise: 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing

obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, Required Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative

Section 12.1 Expenses. 

(a) Borrower hereby agrees to pay on demand: (i) all costs and expenses of Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and their

thereof and thereto, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel, advisors, consultants, and auditors for Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and their Related Parties; (ii) all costs and expenses of

clause (a) whether or not any Credit Extension is ever made. Any amount to be paid under this Section 12.1 shall be a demand obligation owing by Borrower and if not paid within thirty (30) days of demand
shall bear interest, to the extent not prohibited by and no in violation of applicable Law, from the date of expenditure until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Default Interest Rate. The obligations of Borrower under this
Section 12.1 shall survive payment of the Notes and other obligations hereunder and the assignment of any right hereunder. 

(b) To the extent that Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under
Section 12.1(a) or Section 12.2 to be paid by it to Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of Administrative 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 84 








 
Agent or L/C Issuer (or any sub-agent thereof), each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such
Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based each Lender’s share of the Total Credit Exposure at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such
unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative
Agent or L/C Issuer (or any such sub-agent) or against any Related Party of Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer (or any sub-agent thereof) acting for Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. EACH
LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PAYMENTS MAY BE IN RESPECT OF LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES OR RELATED EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THE SOLE, CONTRIBUTORY, COMPARATIVE, CONCURRENT OR ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF THE PERSON (OR THE
REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PERSON) TO WHOM SUCH PAYMENTS ARE TO BE MADE. 
 Section 12.2 INDEMNIFICATION. BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, L/C ISSUER, EACH LENDER AND EACH RELATED PARTY THEREOF FROM, AND HOLD EACH OF THEM HARMLESS AGAINST, ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, JUDGMENTS, DISBURSEMENTS, COSTS, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING
ATTORNEYS’ FEES) TO WHICH ANY OF THEM MAY BECOME SUBJECT WHICH DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISE FROM OR RELATE TO (A) THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION, DELIVERY, PERFORMANCE, ADMINISTRATION, OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, (B) ANY
OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, (C) ANY BREACH BY BORROWER OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, COVENANT, OR OTHER AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, (D) THE PRESENCE, RELEASE, THREATENED RELEASE,
DISPOSAL, REMOVAL, OR CLEANUP OF ANY HAZARDOUS MATERIAL LOCATED ON, ABOUT, WITHIN, OR AFFECTING ANY OF THE PROPERTIES OR ASSETS OF BORROWER OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR ANY OTHER OBLIGATED PARTY, (E) ANY LOAN OR LETTER OF CREDIT OR USE OR
PROPOSED USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREFROM (INCLUDING ANY REFUSAL BY THE L/C ISSUER TO HONOR A DEMAND FOR PAYMENT UNDER A LETTER OF CREDIT IF THE DOCUMENTS PRESENTED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DEMAND DO NOT STRICTLY COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH LETTER OF
CREDIT) OR (F) ANY INVESTIGATION, LITIGATION, OR OTHER PROCEEDING, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY THREATENED INVESTIGATION, LITIGATION, OR OTHER PROCEEDING, RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT
OR OF ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, IT IS THE EXPRESS INTENTION OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT EACH PERSON TO BE INDEMNIFIED UNDER THIS SECTION SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED FROM AND HELD HARMLESS AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES,
PENALTIES, JUDGMENTS, DISBURSEMENTS, COSTS, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES) ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THE SOLE, CONTRIBUTORY, COMPARATIVE, CONCURRENT OR ORDINARY 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 85 








 
NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH PERSON (OR THE REPRESENTATIVES OF SUCH PERSON). Any amount to be paid under this Section 12.2 shall be a demand obligation owing by Borrower and if
not paid within ten (10) days of demand shall bear interest, to the extent not prohibited by and not in violation of applicable Law, from the date of expenditure until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Default Interest Rate. The obligations
of Borrower under this Section 12.2 shall survive payment of the Notes and other obligations hereunder and the assignment of any right hereunder. No indemnified party referred to above shall be liable for any damages arising from
the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 Section 12.3 Limitation of Liability. None of Administrative Agent, L/C
Issuer, or any Lender, or any Affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of any of the foregoing, shall have any liability with respect to, and Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for
any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by Borrower or any other Obligated Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, or any Lender, or any Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or
agents of any of the foregoing for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 12.4 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and other
professional Persons and consultants retained by Administrative Agent, any Lender or L/C Issuer shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of Administrative Agent or such Lender or L/C Issuer and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty
of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to Borrower or any of Borrower’s equity holders, Affiliates, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, or any other Person. 

Section 12.5 Lenders Not Fiduciary. The relationship between Borrower and Administrative Agent, Arranger and each Lender
and L/C Issuer is solely that of debtor and creditor, and none of Administrative Agent, Arranger, any Lender or L/C Issuer has any fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrower, and no term or condition of any of the Loan Documents shall be
construed so as to deem the relationship between Borrower and Administrative Agent, Arranger and each Lender, and L/C Issuer to be other than that of debtor and creditor. 

Section 12.6 Equitable Relief. Borrower recognizes that in the event Borrower fails to pay, perform, observe, or discharge
any or all of the Obligations, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to Administrative Agent or Lenders or L/C Issuer. Borrower therefore agrees that Administrative Agent, any Lender or L/C Issuer, if Administrative Agent or such
Lender or L/C Issuer so requests, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 86 








 Section 12.7 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of
Administrative Agent, any Lender or L/C Issuer to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege. The rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. 
 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Obligated Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all
actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 10.2 for the benefit of all the Lenders;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents, or (b) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Obligated Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided,
further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 10.2 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clause (b) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 12.23, any Lender may, with the consent of the
Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. 
 Section 12.8
Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights, duties, or obligations under this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of
Section 12.8(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.8(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of
Section 12.8(e) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties
hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 12.8(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of Administrative Agent and
Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by
Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 87 








 
(including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i) Minimum Amounts. (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitment(s) and/or the Loans at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in Section 12.8(b)(i)(B) in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to
a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case not described in Section 12.8(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment(s) (which for this purpose
includes Loans outstanding hereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the Outstanding Amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with
respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the
Credit Facility, unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment(s) assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights
and obligations among separate facilities, if any, on a non-pro rata basis. 
 (iii) Required Consents. No consent
shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 12.8(b)(i)(B) and, in addition: (A) the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless
(x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to
any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; (B) the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of any Commitment or Loans if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, and
(C) the consent of L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Credit Facility. 

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 88 








 
processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) Borrower, or any of Borrower’s
Affiliates or Subsidiaries or any other Obligated Party, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Affiliates, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing persons described in this
clause (B), or (C) a Competing Homebuilder. 
 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such
assignment shall be made to a natural Person. 
 (vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment
of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to such assignment shall make such additional payments to
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 Borrower and Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by such Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to:
(A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all
Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the
provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.8(c), from and
after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a
Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption
covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.1 and
Section 12.2 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a
Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any party hereunder arising from that Lenders’ having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply
with this subsection 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 89 








 
shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.8(d). Upon the
consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.8(b), if requested by the transferor or transferee Lender, the transferor Lender, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that replacement
Notes are issued to such transferor Lender (if applicable) and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to the assignee. 

(c) Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its
offices in Dallas, Texas a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice. 
 (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to a Participant in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it);
provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and
(iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent, and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be
responsible for the indemnity under Section 12.1(b) without regard to the existence of any participation. 

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain
the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 12.10 which requires the consent of all Lenders and affects such Participant. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 3.1, 3.5 and 3.4 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.4(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 3.4(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such
Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 3.6 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections
3.1 or 3.4, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after
the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 90 








 
participation agrees, at Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.6 with respect to
any Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a Participant Register; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the
Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the
extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant
Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (f) Dissemination of
Information. Borrower and each other Obligated Party authorizes Administrative Agent and each Lender to disclose to any actual or prospective purchaser, assignee or other recipient of a Lender’s Commitment, any and all information in
Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s possession concerning Borrower, the other Obligated Parties and their respective Affiliates, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 12.25. 

Section 12.9 Survival. All representations and warranties made in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any
document, statement, or certificate furnished in connection with this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and no investigation by Administrative Agent or any Lender or any closing shall
affect the representations and warranties or the right of Administrative Agent or any Lender to rely upon them. Without prejudice to the survival of any other obligation of Borrower hereunder, the obligations of Borrower under
Sections 12.1 and 12.2 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments. 

Section 12.10 Amendment. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party (other
than the Issuer Documents) may be amended or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by Required Lenders (or by Administrative Agent with the consent of Required Lenders) and Borrower and acknowledged by Administrative Agent;
provided, however, that no such amendment or waiver shall: 
 (a) waive any
condition set forth in Section 5.1, without the written consent of each Lender; 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 91 








 (b) extend or increase any Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment
terminated pursuant to Section 10.2) without the written consent of such Lender; 
 (c) postpone any date
fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment (excluding mandatory prepayment) of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent
of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (d) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any
Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that only the consent of Required Lenders shall be
necessary to adjust the Default Interest Rate or to waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest at such rate; 
 (e)
change any provision of this Section 12.10 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any
rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; 
 (f)
change Section 10.3 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender; or 

(g) release any Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender; 

and, provided further, that that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the L/C Issuer in addition to
the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing
and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges
thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no
Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the
consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment(s) of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender; and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification
requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

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

(iii) Borrower and each other Obligated Party (by its, his or her execution of a Loan Document) hereby authorizes
Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective counsel and agents to communicate and transfer documents and other information (including confidential information) concerning this transaction or Borrower or any other Obligated Party and the
business affairs of Borrower and such other Obligated Parties via the Internet or other electronic communication without regard to the lack of security of such communications. 

Section 12.12 Governing Law; Venue; Service of Process. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action
(whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Texas (without reference to applicable rules of conflicts of Laws). 

(b) Jurisdiction. Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or
proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against Administrative Agent, any Lender, L/C Issuer or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of Texas sitting in Dallas County, and of the United States District Court of the Northern District of Texas, and any appellate court
from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Texas
State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 94 








 
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that Administrative Agent, any Lender or L/C Issuer may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document against Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Waiver of Venue. Borrower
irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum
to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Service of Process. Each party hereto
irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 12.11. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

 Section 12.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Except as provided in Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Administrative Agent
and when Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other
electronic imaging means (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

Section 12.14 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable shall not impair or invalidate the remainder of this Agreement and the effect thereof shall be confined to the provision held to be invalid or illegal. Furthermore, in lieu of such invalid or unenforceable
provision there shall be added as a part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable. 

Section 12.15 Headings. The headings, captions, and arrangements used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall
not affect the interpretation of this Agreement. 
 Section 12.16 Construction. Borrower, Administrative Agent and
each Lender acknowledge that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender. 

Section 12.17 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular
action or condition is not permitted by any of such  

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 95 








 
covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default if such action is taken
or such condition exists. 
 Section 12.18 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR
THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT
OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12.18. 
 Section 12.19 Additional Interest Provision. It is expressly
stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender at all times to comply strictly with the applicable law governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on the indebtedness evidenced by any Note, any
Loan Document, and the Related Indebtedness (or applicable United States federal law to the extent that it permits any Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under applicable law). If the
applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount (a) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received pursuant to any Note, any of the other Loan Documents or any other communication or writing by or between
Borrower and any Lender related to the transaction or transactions that are the subject matter of the Loan Documents, (b) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by reason of Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s
exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness, or (c) Borrower will have paid or Administrative Agent or any Lender will have received by reason of any voluntary prepayment by Borrower of any Note
and/or the Related Indebtedness, then it is Borrower’s, Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ express intent that all amounts charged in excess of the Maximum Rate shall be automatically canceled, ab initio, and all amounts in excess of
the Maximum Rate theretofore collected by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness (or, if any Note and all Related Indebtedness have been or would thereby be paid in
full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of any Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new
document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder; provided, however, if any Note or Related Indebtedness
has been paid in full before the end of the stated term thereof, then Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender agree that Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, shall, with reasonable promptness after Administrative Agent or such
Lender discovers or is advised by Borrower that interest was received in an amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, either refund such excess interest to  

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 96 








 
Borrower and/or credit such excess interest against such Note and/or any Related Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent or such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees that as a
condition precedent to any claim seeking usury penalties against Administrative Agent or such Lender, Borrower will provide written notice to Administrative Agent or any Lender, advising Administrative Agent or such Lender in reasonable detail of
the nature and amount of the violation, and Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice in which to correct such usury violation, if any, by either refunding such excess interest to Borrower or
crediting such excess interest against the Note to which the alleged violation relates and/or the Related Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent or such Lender. All sums contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by
Administrative Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of any debt evidenced by any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized or spread, using the actuarial method,
throughout the stated term of such Note and/or the Related Indebtedness (including any and all renewal and extension periods) until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness does
not exceed the Maximum Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to such Note and/or the Related Indebtedness for so long as debt is outstanding. In no event shall the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates
certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving triparty accounts) apply to the Notes and/or any of the Related Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the
intention of Administrative Agent or any Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration. 

Section 12.20 Ceiling Election. To the extent that any Lender is relying on Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code to
determine the Maximum Rate payable on any Note and/or any other portion of the Obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender will utilize the weekly ceiling from time to time in effect as provided in such Chapter 303. To the extent United States
federal law permits any Lender to contract for, charge, take, receive or reserve a greater amount of interest than under Texas law, such Lender will rely on United States federal law instead of such Chapter 303 for the purpose of determining
the Maximum Rate. Additionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, any Lender may, at its option and from time to time, utilize any other method of establishing the Maximum Rate under such Chapter 303 or under
other applicable law by giving notice, if required, to Borrower as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. 

Section 12.21 USA Patriot Act Notice. Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the
requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and each other Obligated Party, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and each other Obligated Party and other
information that will allow Administrative Agent and such Lender to identify Borrower and each other Obligated Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. In addition, Borrower agrees to (a) ensure that no Person who owns a controlling interest
in or otherwise controls Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower is or shall be listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Person List or other similar lists maintained by the OFAC, the Department of the Treasury or included in any
Executive Order, (b) not to use or permit the use of proceeds of the Obligations to violate any of the foreign asset control regulations of the OFAC or any enabling  

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 97 








 
statute or Executive Order relating thereto, and (c) comply, or cause its Subsidiaries to comply, with the applicable Laws. 

Section 12.22 Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of “Required Lenders” and in Section 12.10. 

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative
Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 10 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender shall be applied at such time or times
as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, with respect to a Defaulting Lender that is a Lender, to the payment on a pro
rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to L/C Issuer hereunder; third, with respect to a Defaulting Lender that is a Lender, to Cash Collateralize L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure, if any, with respect to such Defaulting Lender
in accordance with Section 2.7; fourth, with respect to a Defaulting Lender that is a Lender, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such
Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, with respect to a Defaulting Lender that is a Lender, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be
held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize L/C Issuer’s future
Fronting Exposure, if any, with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.7; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders or L/C
Issuer as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or L/C Issuer against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long
as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that, if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of
any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the


  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 98 








 
conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders
on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations are held by Lenders pro rata in
accordance with the Commitments under the Credit Facility without giving effect to Section 12.22(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts
owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.22(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under
Section 2.4(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting
Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the
extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrower shall have otherwise notified Administrative Agent at such time, Borrower shall be deemed to have
represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No
reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of
such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 
 (v) Cash Collateral. If the
reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable law, Cash Collateralize L/C
Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.7. 
 (b)
Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in
such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or
take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 99 








 
basis by Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 12.22(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a
Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except
to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting
Lender. 
 Section 12.23 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or
counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it or other obligations hereunder, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such
Loans and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall: 

(a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact; and 

(b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such
other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them,
provided that: 
 (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise
thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 

(ii) the provisions of this Section 12.23 shall not be construed to apply to: (A) any payment made by
or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender); or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for
the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to Borrower or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this
Section 12.23 shall apply). 
 Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable
law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in
the amount of such participation. 
 Section 12.24 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of
Borrower is made to Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer or any Lender, or Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 100 








 
set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other
party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and
effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered
from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of Lenders and L/C Issuer
under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 12.25 Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners) or any Governmental Authority, quasi-Governmental Authority or legislative committee, (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to its being under a duty of confidentiality no less restrictive than this Section 12.25, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or prospective purchaser of a Lender or its holding company, (iii) any rating agency or any similar organization in
connection with the rating of Borrower or the Facilities or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facilities, (g) with the consent of
Borrower, or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 12.25 or (ii) becomes available to Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer,
any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower. For purposes of this Section 12.25, “Information” means all
information received from Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses which is clearly identified as confidential, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent,
L/C Issuer or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or a Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of information received from Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is
clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 12.25 shall be considered to have complied with its
obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT – Page 101 








 Section 12.26 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other
Documents. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and
consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which
shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

Section 12.27 Independence of Covenants. All covenants under the Loan Documents shall be given independent effect so that
if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default if such
action is taken or such condition exists. 
 Section 12.28 NOTICE OF FINAL AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO
UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
