 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, each Lender
severally agrees to make a term loan in U.S. dollars to Borrower on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment. The Commitments are not revolving in nature, and amounts repaid or prepaid may not be
reborrowed under any circumstance. Any portion of the Commitments not utilized on the Closing Date shall be permanently cancelled. 
  
 (b) Each Lender shall make its term loan as part of the Borrowing, which shall consist of term loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their
respective Commitments. Subject to Section 3.15, on the Closing Date, the Borrowing shall be comprised of a Base-Rate Tranche and/or LIBOR-Rate Tranche(s) as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. 
  
 (c) Each Tranche may only be $5,000,000 or a greater integral multiple of
$1,000,000. Notwithstanding any other provision of this agreement, Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Tranche if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the
Stated-Termination Date. 
  
 Section 2.2 Borrowing
Procedure. The following procedures apply to the Borrowing: 
  
 (a) Borrowing Request. Borrower shall request the Borrowing by making or delivering the Borrowing Request (that may be telephonic if confirmed immediately in writing by 2:00 p.m. on the same Business Day) to Administrative Agent,
which is irrevocable and 
  

 13 







 binding on Borrower, stating the Type, amount, and Interest Period for each Tranche and which must be received by
Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. on the third Business Day before the Closing Date on which funds are requested (which shall be a Business Day) for the Borrowing. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of any such
Borrowing Request. 
  
 (b) Funding. Each Lender shall remit
its Commitment Percentage of the requested Borrowing to Administrative Agent’s principal office in New York, New York, in funds that are available for immediate use by Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. on the Closing Date. Subject to receipt of
those funds, Administrative Agent shall (unless to its actual knowledge any of the applicable conditions precedent have not been satisfied by Borrower or waived by the requisite Lenders under Section 14.8) make those funds available to Borrower
by (at Borrower’s option) (i) wiring the funds to or for the account of Borrower at the direction of Borrower or (ii) depositing the funds in an account designated by Borrower. 
  
 (c) Funding Assumed. Absent contrary written notice from a Lender,
Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made its Commitment Percentage of the requested Borrowing available to Administrative Agent on the Closing Date, and Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be
required to), make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. If a Lender fails to make its Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing available to Administrative Agent on the Closing Date, Administrative Agent may recover the applicable amount on
demand, (i) from that Lender together with interest, commencing on the Closing Date and ending on (but excluding) the date Administrative Agent recovers the amount from that Lender, at an annual interest rate equal to the Federal-Funds Rate or
(ii) if that Lender fails to pay its amount upon demand, then from Borrower. No Lender is responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing available as required by Section 2.2(b); however,
failure of any Lender to make its Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing so available does not excuse any other Lender from making its Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing so available. 
  
 Section 2.3 Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 Section 2.4 Borrowing Notice. The Borrowing Request (whether telephonic or written) constitutes a representation
and warranty by Borrower that as of the Closing Date all of the conditions precedent in Article VI have been satisfied. 
  
 Section 2.5 Termination. The Commitments shall terminate at 3.00 p.m., New York, New York time on the Closing Date. 
  
 Section 2.6 Total PV. The initial Total PV shall be $157,500,000.
The Total PV shall be redetermined semi-annually through the Termination Date in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.6. In connection with each semi-annual redetermination, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate,
in form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, setting forth in sufficient detail Borrower’s calculation of Total PV based on the applicable definitions of this agreement, and attaching thereto the Reserve Report and other information
used by Borrower in calculating the Total PV, within ninety (90) days after each December 31 and June 30, with the first such certificate to be delivered on or before March 31, 2006. In 
  

 14 







 addition, Borrower may, by notifying Administrative Agent thereof, and Administrative Agent may, at the direction of the
Determining Lenders, by notifying Borrower thereof, each elect to require the Total PV to be redetermined one additional time on a specified “as of” date between such regular determinations (which shall be the first day of a calendar month
following the date of such notice), in which event Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent such certificate no later than one month after such specified date reflecting the Total PV as of such specified date. In addition to the foregoing, the
Total PV shall be subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with Section 8.18(c) and Section 9.10(e). 
  
 Upon receipt of such certificate, Administrative Agent shall promptly review such certificate and, within ten (10) Business Days, confirm to Borrower
and Lenders that (i) the calculations used to determine the Total PV were based upon the pricing and other requirements set forth in the definition of Total PV, (ii) no mathematical or other errors or omissions have been made in such
calculation and (iii) the engineering analysis used to determine the Total PV was based upon estimated production, pricing and costs acceptable to Administrative Agent. If facts under (i), (ii) or (iii) are ascertained to exist,
Administrative Agent and Borrower shall cooperate to promptly calculate the proper amount of the Total PV. Otherwise, upon confirmation of such amount as the Total PV, such amount will be the Total PV until next adjusted or redetermined in
accordance with the terms of this agreement.

Federal-Funds Rate. 
  
 Section 3.2 Interest and Principal
Payments; Prepayments. 
  
 (a) Interest. Accrued
interest on each LIBOR-Rate Tranche is due and payable on the last day of its respective Interest Period. If any Interest Period for a LIBOR-Rate Tranche is greater than three months, then accrued interest is also due and payable on the date three
months after the commencement of the Interest Period. Accrued interest on each Base-Rate Tranche is due and payable on the last day of each March, June, September, and December — commencing on the first of those dates that follows the Closing
Date — and on the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 3.5 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Tranche (other than an optional
prepayment of a Base-Rate Tranche prior to the Termination Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any
LIBOR-Rate Tranche prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such LIBOR-Rate Tranche shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 
  
 (b) Mandatory Repayment; Optional Prepayments. The Principal Debt is due and payable on the Termination Date. Before
that date, subject to any Funding Loss payable pursuant to Section 3.18, Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Principal Debt, in whole or in part, as follows: 
  
 (i) at any time during the period commencing on the first Business Day after the Closing Date to and including the first
anniversary of the Closing Date, with a premium equal to 1% of such amount prepaid; and 
  
 (ii) at any time during the period commencing on the first Business Day after the first anniversary of the Closing Date to and including the Stated-Termination Date, without premium or penalty; 
  
 provided that, in any event, each prepayment is in an amount that is an
integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000, or if such amount is less than $5,000,000, the outstanding principal amount of the Borrowing. Conversions under Section 3.10 are not prepayments. 
  
 Section 3.3 Interest Options. Except that the LIBOR Rate may not
be selected when a Default or Potential Default exists and except as otherwise provided in this agreement, Tranches bear interest at an annual rate equal to the lesser of either (a) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or the LIBOR Rate
plus the Applicable Margin (in each case as designated or deemed designated by Borrower), as the case may be or (b) the Maximum Rate. Each change in the Base Rate and Maximum Rate is effective, without notice to Borrower or any other Person,
upon the effective date of change. 
  

 16 







 Section 3.4 Quotation of Rates. Borrower may call Administrative Agent before delivering the
Borrowing Request to receive an indication of the interest rates then in effect, but the indicated rates do not bind Administrative Agent or Lenders or affect the interest rate that is actually in effect when Borrower makes the Borrowing request or
on the Closing Date. 
  
 Section 3.5 Default Rate. If
permitted by Law, from and after the occurrence of any Default, all Principal Debt and other amounts constituting the Obligation shall bear interest at the Default Rate until paid, regardless whether payment is made before or after entry of a
judgment. 
  
 Section 3.6 Interest Recapture. If the
designated interest rate applicable to any Tranche exceeds the Maximum Rate, the interest rate on that Tranche is limited to the Maximum Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the designated rate shall not reduce the interest rate thereon below the
Maximum Rate until the total amount of accrued interest equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if that designated rate had always been in effect. If at maturity (stated or by acceleration), or at final payment of the Notes, the total
interest paid or accrued is less than the interest that would have accrued if the designated rates had always been in effect, then, at that time and to the extent permitted by Law, Borrower shall pay an amount equal to the difference between
(a) the lesser of the amount of interest that would have accrued if the designated rates had always been in effect and the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Maximum Rate had always been in effect and (b) the amount of
interest actually paid or accrued on the Notes. 
  
 Section 3.7 Interest Calculations. Interest will be calculated on the basis of actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) elapsed but computed as if each calendar year consisted of 360 days
(unless the calculation would result in an interest rate greater than the Maximum Rate or in the case of interest on Base-Rate Tranches in which event interest will be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be). All
interest rate determinations and calculations by Administrative Agent are conclusive and binding absent manifest error. 
  
 Section 3.8 Maximum Rate. Regardless of any provision contained in any Loan Document, no Lender is entitled to contract for, charge, take,
reserve, receive, or apply, as interest on all or any part of the Obligation, any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, and, if Lenders ever do so, then any excess shall be treated as a partial prepayment of principal and any remaining excess shall
be refunded to Borrower. In determining if the interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate, Borrower and Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law, (a) treat all Tranches as but a single extension of credit (and
Lenders and Borrower agree that is the case and that provision in this agreement for multiple Tranches is for convenience only), (b) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest, (c) exclude
voluntary prepayments and their effects and (d) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Obligation. However, if the Obligation are paid in full before the end of their
full contemplated term, and if the interest received for its actual period of existence exceeds the Maximum Amount, Lenders shall refund any excess (and Lenders may not, to the extent permitted by Law, be subject to any penalties provided by any
Laws for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving, or receiving interest in excess of the Maximum Amount). If the Laws of the State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the “Maximum Rate” or 
  

 17 







 the “Maximum Amount,” then those terms mean the “indicated (weekly) ceiling” from time to time
in effect as determined in accordance with Section 303.301 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended. Borrower agrees that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving
triparty accounts), does not apply to the Obligation. 
  
 Section 3.9 Interest Periods. When Borrower requests any LIBOR-Rate Tranche, Borrower may elect the applicable interest period (each an “Interest Period”), which may be, at Borrower’s option, one, two,
three, or six months for LIBOR-Rate Tranches, subject to Section 14.1 and the following conditions: (a) the initial Interest Period for a LIBOR-Rate Tranche commences on the Closing Date or conversion date, and each subsequent Interest
Period applicable to any Tranche commences on the day when the next preceding applicable Interest Period expires, (b) if any Interest Period for a LIBOR-Rate Tranche begins on a day for which no numerically corresponding Business Day in the
calendar month at the end of the Interest Period exists, then the Interest Period ends on the last Business Day of that calendar month, (c) if Borrower is required to pay any of a LIBOR-Rate Tranche before the end of its Interest Period in
order to comply with the payment provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower shall also pay any related Funding Loss and (d) no more than five Interest Periods may be in effect at one time. 
  
 Section 3.10 Conversions. Subject to the dollar limits of
Section 2.1(c) and provided that Borrower may not convert to or select a new Interest Period for a LIBOR-Rate Tranche at any time when a Default or Potential Default exists, Borrower may (a) convert a LIBOR-Rate Tranche on the last day of
the applicable Interest Period to a Base-Rate Tranche, (b) convert a Base-Rate Tranche at any time to a LIBOR-Rate Tranche and (c) elect a new Interest Period for a LIBOR-Rate Tranche. That election may be made by telephonic request to
Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. on the third Business Day before the conversion date or the last day of the Interest Period, as the case may be (for conversion to a LIBOR-Rate Tranche or election of a new Interest Period), and no later
than 10:00 a.m. on the last day of the Interest Period (for conversion to a Base-Rate Tranche). Borrower shall provide a Conversion Notice to Administrative Agent no later than two days after the date of the conversion or election. Absent
Borrower’s telephonic request for conversion or election of a new Interest Period or if a Default or Potential Default exists, then, a LIBOR-Rate Tranche shall be deemed converted to a Base-Rate Tranche effective when the applicable Interest
Period expires. 
  
 Section 3.11 Order of Application.

  
 (a) No Default. If no Default or Potential Default
exists, any payment shall be applied to the Obligation — except as otherwise specifically provided in the Loan Documents — in the order and manner as Borrower directs. 
  
 (b) Default. If a Default or Potential Default exists or if Borrower fails to give direction, any payment (including
proceeds from the exercise of any Rights) shall be applied in the following order: (i) to all fees and expenses for which Administrative Agent has not been paid or reimbursed in accordance with the Loan Documents (and if such payment is less
than all unpaid or unreimbursed fees and expenses, then the payment shall be paid against unpaid and unreimbursed fees and expenses in the order of incurrence or due date), (ii) to all fees and expenses for which any Lender has not been paid or
reimbursed in accordance with the Loan 
  

 18 







 Documents (and if such payment is less than all unpaid or unreimbursed fees and expenses, then the payment shall be paid
against unpaid and unreimbursed fees and expenses in the order of incurrence or due date), (iii) pro rata to the payment of the Principal Debt, and accrued but unpaid interest thereon and (iv) to the remaining Obligation in the order and
manner Determining Lenders deem appropriate. 
  
 (c) Pro
Rata. Each payment or prepayment shall be distributed to each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Part of that payment or prepayment. 
  
 Section 3.12 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender obtains any payment or prepayment with respect to the Obligation (whether voluntary,
involuntary, or otherwise, including, without limitation, as a result of exercising its Rights under Section 3.13) that exceeds the part of that payment or prepayment that it is then entitled to receive under the Loan Documents, then that
Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders participations that will cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or prepayment ratably with each other Lender. If all or any portion of any excess payment or prepayment is subsequently
recovered from the purchasing Lender, then the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of the recovery. Borrower agrees that any Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender under this section may, to the
fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all of its Rights of payment (including the Right of offset) with respect to that participation as fully as if that Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of that participation.

  
 Section 3.13 Offset. If a Default exists, each
Lender is entitled to exercise (for the benefit of all Lenders in accordance with Section 3.12) the Rights of offset and banker’s Lien against each and every account and other property, or any interest therein, that any Company may now or
hereafter have with, or which is now or hereafter in the possession of, that Lender to the extent of the full amount of the Obligation owed (directly or participated) to it. 
  
 Section 3.14 Booking Tranches. To the extent permitted by Law, any Lender may make, carry, or transfer its
Tranches at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office or branch of any of its Affiliates. However, no Affiliate or branch is entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.16 than the transferor Lender would
have been entitled to receive with respect to those Tranches, and a transfer may not be made if, as a direct result of it, Section 3.15 or Section 3.17 would apply to any of the Obligation. If any of the conditions of Section 3.16 or
Section 3.17 ever apply to a Lender, that Lender shall carry or transfer its Tranches at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office or branch of any of its Affiliates so long as the transfer is consistent with the other
provisions of this section, does not create any burden or adverse circumstance for that Lender that would not otherwise exist, and eliminates the conditions of Section 3.16 or Section 3.17 as applicable. 
  
 Section 3.15 Basis Unavailable for LIBOR Rate. If, on or before
any date when a LIBOR Rate is to be determined for a Tranche, Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the basis for determining the applicable rate is not available, then Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Lenders of
that determination (which is conclusive and binding on Borrower absent manifest error) and the applicable Tranche shall bear interest at the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Until Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that those
circumstances no longer exist, Lenders’ commitments under this agreement to make, or to convert to, LIBOR-Rate Tranches, as the case may be, are suspended. 
  


 19 







 Section 3.16 Additional Costs. Each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to notify
Administrative Agent, the other Lenders, and Borrower within 180 days after it has actual knowledge that any circumstances exist that would give rise to any payment obligation by Borrower under clauses (a) through (c) below. Although no
Lender shall have any liability to Administrative Agent, any other Lender, or any Company for its failure to give that notice, Borrower is not obligated to pay any amounts under those clauses that arise, accrue, or are imposed more than 180 days
before that notice to the extent it is applicable to those amounts. Any Lender demanding payment of any additional costs under this section must generally be making similar demand for similar additional costs under credit agreements to which it is
party that contain similar provisions to this section. 
  
 (a)
Reserves. With respect to any or LIBOR-Rate Tranche (i) if any present or future Law imposes, modifies, or deems applicable (or if compliance by any Lender with any requirement of any Tribunal results in) any requirement that any
reserves (including, without limitation, any marginal, emergency, supplemental, or special reserves) be maintained (other than any reserve included in the Reserve Requirement), and if (ii) those reserves reduce any sums receivable by that
Lender under this agreement or increase the costs incurred by that Lender in advancing or maintaining any portion of any LIBOR-Rate Tranche, then (iii) that Lender (through Administrative Agent) shall deliver to Borrower a certificate setting
forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount necessary to compensate it for its reduction or increase (which certificate is conclusive and binding absent manifest error) and (iv) Borrower shall pay that amount to that Lender within
five Business Days after demand. The provisions of and undertakings and indemnification in this clause (a) survive the satisfaction and payment of the Obligation and termination of this agreement. 
  
 (b) Capital Adequacy. With respect to the Borrowing or any Tranche,
present or future Law regarding capital adequacy or compliance by Administrative Agent or any Lender with any request, directive, or requirement now existing or hereafter imposed by any Tribunal regarding capital adequacy, or any change in its
written policies or in the risk category of this transaction, reduces the rate of return on its capital as a consequence of its obligations under this agreement to a level below that which it otherwise could have achieved (taking into consideration
its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by it to be material (and it may, in determining the amount, utilize reasonable assumptions and allocations of costs and expenses and use any reasonable averaging or attribution
method in apportioning such costs to its customers generally), then (unless the effect is already reflected in the rate of interest then applicable under this agreement) Administrative Agent or that Lender (through Administrative Agent) shall notify
Borrower and deliver to Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount necessary to compensate it (which certificate is conclusive and binding absent manifest error), and Borrower shall pay that amount to
Administrative Agent or that Lender within five Business Days after demand. The provisions of and undertakings and indemnification in this clause (b) shall survive the satisfaction and payment of the Obligation and termination of this
agreement. 
  

 20 







 (c) Taxes. Subject to Section 3.19, any Taxes payable by Administrative Agent or any Lender
or ruled (by a Tribunal) payable by Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of this agreement or any other Loan Document shall, if permitted by Law, be paid by Borrower, together with interest and penalties, if any except for Taxes payable on
or measured by the overall net income of Administrative Agent or that Lender (or Administrative Agent or that Lender, as the case may be, together with any other Person with whom Administrative Agent or that Lender files a consolidated, combined,
unitary, or similar Tax return) and except for interest and penalties incurred as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or any Lender). Administrative Agent or that Lender (through Administrative Agent) shall
notify Borrower and deliver to Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of payable Taxes, which certificate is conclusive and binding (absent manifest error), and Borrower shall pay that amount to
Administrative Agent for its account or the account of that Lender, as the case may be within five Business Days after demand. If Administrative Agent or that Lender subsequently receives a refund of the Taxes paid to it by Borrower, then the
recipient shall promptly pay the refund to Borrower. 
  
 Section 3.17 Change in Laws. If any Law makes it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR-Rate Tranches, then that Lender shall promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent, and (a) as to undisbursed funds,
that requested Tranche shall be made as a Base-Rate Tranche and (b) as to any outstanding Tranche (i) if maintaining the Tranche until the last day of the applicable Interest Period is unlawful, the Tranche shall be converted to a
Base-Rate Tranche as of the date of notice, in which event Borrower will not be required to pay any related Funding Loss, or (ii) if not prohibited by Law, the Tranche shall be converted to a Base-Rate Tranche as of the last day of the
applicable Interest Period or (iii) if any conversion will not resolve the unlawfulness, Borrower shall promptly prepay the Tranche, without penalty but with related Funding Loss. 
  
 Section 3.18 Funding Loss. Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against, and pay to it upon demand, any Funding
Loss of that Lender. When any Lender demands that Borrower pay any Funding Loss, that Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for imposing Funding Loss and the calculation
of the amount, which calculation is conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The provisions of and undertakings and indemnification in this section survive the satisfaction and payment of the Obligation and termination of this agreement.

  
 Section 3.19 Foreign Lenders, Participants, and
Assignees. Each Lender, Participant (by accepting a participation interest under this agreement), and Assignee (by executing an Assignment) that is not organized under the Laws of the United States of America or one of its states
(a) represents to Administrative Agent and Borrower that (i) no Taxes are required to be withheld by Administrative Agent or Borrower with respect to any payments to be made to it in respect of the Obligation and (ii) it has furnished
to Administrative Agent and Borrower two duly completed copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or any other form acceptable to Administrative Agent and Borrower that entitles it to a complete exemption from U.S.
federal withholding Tax on all interest payments under the Loan Documents and (b) covenants to (i) provide Administrative Agent and Borrower a new Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or other form acceptable to Administrative Agent upon the expiration
or obsolescence according to Law of any previously delivered form, duly executed and completed 
  

 21 







 by it, entitling it to a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax on all interest and fee payments under the
Loan Documents and (ii) comply from time to time with all Laws with regard to the withholding Tax exemption. If any of the foregoing is not true at any time or the applicable forms are not provided, then Borrower and Administrative Agent
(without duplication) may deduct and withhold from interest and fee payments under the Loan Documents any Tax at the maximum rate under the Code or other applicable Law, and amounts so deducted and withheld shall be treated as paid to that Lender
for all purposes under the Loan Documents. 
  
 ARTICLE IV

 FEES 
  
 Section 4.1 Treatment of Fees. The fees described in this Article IV (a) are not compensation for the use, detention, or forbearance of
money, (b) are in addition to, and not in lieu of, interest and expenses otherwise described in this agreement, (c) are payable in accordance with Section 3.1, (d) are non-refundable and (e) to the fullest extent permitted
by Law, bear interest, if not paid when due, at the Default Rate. 
  
 Section 4.2 Fees to Administrative Agent and Affiliates. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, and its Affiliates as Administrative Agent may designate, the fees and other amounts described in the letter agreement (as it
may be renewed, extended, or modified) of even date herewith between Borrower and Administrative Agent and any other letter agreement (as it may be renewed, extended, or modified) between Borrower and Administrative Agent. Those fees are solely for
the account of Administrative Agent and its Affiliates except to the extent that Administrative Agent may unilaterally agree in writing with any Lender in respect of the sharing of such fees. 
  
 ARTICLE V 
 SECURITY 
  
 Section 5.1 Guaranty. Borrower shall cause Goodrich and all of Goodrich’s present and future Subsidiaries — whether now existing or in the future formed or acquired as permitted by the Loan Documents — that are
Restricted Companies to unconditionally guarantee the full payment and performance of the Obligation by execution of a written guaranty agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. 
  
 Section 5.2 Collateral. Borrower shall cause full payment and
performance of the Obligation at all times to be secured by Lender Liens on (a) at least 80% of the total value of the proved Mineral Interests evaluated in the most recently completed Reserve Report after giving effect to exploration and
production activities, acquisitions, dispositions and production, (b) all of the Equity Interests of Subsidiaries of Goodrich (as required by Section 8.11), (c) all other personal property of Borrower and each Restricted Company and
(d) all of the other items and types of property — (together with the additional collateral described in Section 5.3, if any, and the cash and non-cash proceeds of all of the foregoing, the “Collateral”) —
described in the present and future Loan Documents creating Lender Liens (said documents and any documents and instruments from time to time amending or supplementing the same are herein sometimes collectively called the “Collateral
Documents”), including, without limitation, all such property described in the Collateral Documents listed on Schedule 6 to this agreement. 
  

 22 







 Section 5.3 Collateral Account. In order to secure further the performance by Borrower of the
Obligation and to effect and facilitate Administrative Agent’s right of offset, immediately following Administrative Agent’s request, Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Restricted Companies to, execute such forms, authorizations,
documents and instruments, and do such other things, as Administrative Agent shall request, in order to require that pipeline companies, operators of the Mortgaged Properties and others (collectively, the “Purchasers”) purchasing
(or acting as agents for, or making payments on behalf of, those purchasing) the oil, gas and other minerals produced or to be produced from, or relating to, the Mineral Interests deliver to a post office box number specified by Administrative Agent
all royalties, production payments, checks, cash, proceeds and monies now or hereafter payable by the Purchasers (or any of them) on account of oil, gas or other minerals produced from or relating to the Mineral Interests or otherwise with respect
to the Mineral Interests. Borrower agrees that all such royalties, payments and monies delivered to such post office box shall be deposited by Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account at Administrative Agent styled “Goodrich Petroleum
Company, L.L.C. Production Account.” After the occurrence of a Default, Borrower shall, upon receipt, deposit in the Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. Production Account all such royalties, payments and monies which any Restricted Company
receives directly from the Purchasers. Each Restricted Company hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to charge from time to time after the occurrence of a Default, the Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. Production Account
and any other accounts of such Restricted Company at Administrative Agent or any Lender for amounts due to Lenders hereunder and under the Notes. After the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, in its own name or the
name of any Restricted Company, to notify any or all parties obligated to such Restricted Company with respect to the Mineral Interests to make all payments due or to become due thereon directly to Administrative Agent, or such other person or
officer as Administrative Agent may require whereupon the power and authority of Borrower to collect the same in the ordinary course of its business shall be deemed to be immediately revoked and terminated. With or without such general notification,
after the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent may take or bring in any Restricted Company’s name or that of Administrative Agent all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed by Administrative Agent necessary or desirable to effect
possession or collection of payments, may complete any contract or agreement of such Restricted Company in any way related to any of the Mineral Interests, may make allowances or adjustments related to the Mineral Interests, may compromise any
claims related to the Mineral Interests or may issue credit in its own name or the name of such Restricted Company. Regardless of any provision hereof, however, Administrative Agent shall never be liable for its failure to collect or for its failure
to exercise diligence in the collection, possession, or any transaction concerning, all or part of the Mineral Interests or sums due or paid thereon, nor shall it or they be under any obligation whatsoever to anyone by virtue of its security
interests and liens relating to the Mortgaged Properties. 
  
 Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and empowered on behalf of such Restricted Company to endorse the name of any Restricted Company upon any check, draft, instrument, receipt, instruction or other document or items, including, but
not limited to, all items evidencing payment upon any indebtedness of any Person to such Restricted Company coming into Administrative Agent’s possession, and to receive and apply the proceeds therefrom in accordance with the terms hereof.
Administrative Agent is hereby granted an irrevocable power of attorney, which is coupled with an interest, to execute all checks, drafts, receipts, instruments, 
  

 23 







 instructions or other documents, agreements or items on behalf of any Restricted Company, either before or after demand
of payment on the Notes, as shall be deemed by Administrative Agent to be necessary or advisable, in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, to protect its security interests and liens in the Mineral Interests or the repayment of the
Obligation, and Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability in connection with or arising from its exercise of such power of attorney. 
  
 Borrower acknowledges that all funds so transferred into the Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. Production Account shall be the property of the Restricted
Companies only and not subject to any claim by any party other than Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. 
  
 Section 5.4 Further Assurances. Borrower covenants and agrees that the Lender Liens otherwise described in Section 5.2 and, when
required, Section 5.3, must be created and perfected as a condition to funding the Borrowing. Furthermore, Borrower shall — and shall cause each other appropriate Company to — perform the acts, duly authorize, execute, acknowledge,
deliver, file, and record any additional writings, and pay all filings fees and costs as Administrative Agent or Determining Lenders may reasonably deem appropriate or necessary to perfect and maintain the Lender Liens and preserve and protect the
Rights of Administrative Agent and Lenders under any Loan Document. 
  
 Section 5.5 Release of Collateral. 
  
 (a)
Whenever no Lender has any commitment to extend credit under any Loan Document and the Obligation has been fully paid and performed, Administrative Agent shall, upon Borrower’s written request and at Borrower’s cost and expense, cause the
Lender Liens on all Collateral to be released. 
  
 (b) In
connection with any sale or other disposition of assets permitted by Section 9.10, Administrative Agent shall, upon Borrower’s request and at Borrower’s cost and expense, release the Lender Liens on the assets sold or disposed of.

  
 ARTICLE VI 
 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT 
  
 No Lender is obligated to fund its loan hereunder unless Administrative Agent has received all of the items described in Part A on Schedule 6. In
addition, no Lender is obligated to fund (as opposed to continue or convert) its loan hereunder unless on the Closing Date (and after giving effect to the requested Borrowing): (a) Administrative Agent timely receives the Borrowing Request,
(b) all of the representations and warranties of the Companies in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (unless they speak to a specific date or are based on facts which have changed by transactions contemplated or
expressly permitted by this agreement), (c) no Material Adverse Event, Default, or Potential Default exists, (d) no limitation in Section 2.1 is exceeded. The Borrowing Request constitutes Borrower’s representation and warranty
that the conditions in clauses (b) through (d) above are satisfied. Upon Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s reasonable request, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent or such Lender evidence substantiating any of the
matters in the Loan Documents that are necessary 
  

 24 







 to enable Borrower to qualify for the Borrowing. Each condition precedent in this agreement (including, without
limitation, those on Schedule 6) is material to the transactions contemplated by this agreement, and time is of the essence with respect to each condition precedent. 
  
 ARTICLE VII 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 Borrower
represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders as follows: 
  
 Section 7.1 Purpose and Regulation U. 
  
 (a) Borrower will use the Borrowing to repay the term facility under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement, for general corporate purposes, for the Restricted Companies’ working capital, for acquisition and
development of Mineral Interests and for other general corporate purposes. 
  
 (b) No Company is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation
U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as amended. No part of the proceeds of the Borrowing will be used, directly or indirectly, for a purpose that violates any Law, including, without limitation, Regulation U. 
  
 Section 7.2 Corporate Existence, Good Standing, and Authority.
Each Restricted Company is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation. Each Restricted Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in
each jurisdiction where the nature and extent of its business and properties require due qualification and good standing (each of which jurisdictions is identified on Schedule 6). Each Restricted Company possesses all requisite authority and
power to conduct its business as is now being conducted and as proposed under the Loan Documents to be conducted and to own and operate its assets as now owned and operated and as proposed to be owned and operated under the Loan Documents.

  
 Section 7.3 Subsidiaries and Names. Schedule
7.3 — as supplemented from time to time by written notice from Borrower to Administrative Agent and Lenders specifically referring to that schedule and this section and reflecting changes to that schedule as a result of transactions
permitted by the Loan Documents — describes (a) all of Goodrich’s direct and indirect Subsidiaries, (b) all Restricted Companies, (c) every name or trade name used by each Restricted Company during the five-year period
before the date of this agreement and (d) every change of each Subsidiary’s name and jurisdiction of organization or formation during the four-month period before the date of this agreement. All of the outstanding shares of Equity
Interests of Borrower’s Subsidiaries are (a) duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, (b) owned of record and beneficially as described in that schedule or those writings, free and clear of any Liens (provided
that applicable Permitted Liens may exist, however, no intention to subordinate the second priority Lien granted in favor of Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders is to be hereby implied or expressed by the permitted existence of such
Permitted Liens) and (c) not subject to any warrant, option, or other acquisition Right of any Person or subject to any transfer restriction except restrictions imposed by securities Laws and general corporate Laws. 
  

 25 







 Section 7.4 Authorization and Contravention. The execution and delivery by each Restricted
Company of each Loan Document to which it is a party and the performance by it of its obligations under those Loan Documents (a) are within its corporate power, (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action,
(c) require no action by or filing with any Tribunal (except any action or filing that has been taken or made on or before the Closing Date), (d) do not violate any provision of its charter or bylaws and (e) do not violate any
provision of Law applicable to it or any material agreement to which it is a party except violations that individually or collectively are not a Material Adverse Event. 
  
 Section 7.5 Binding Effect. Upon execution and delivery by all parties to it, each Loan Document will constitute

virtue of any prepayment made under any contract containing a “take-or-pay” or “prepayment” provision or under any similar agreement to deliver hydrocarbons produced from or allocated to any of the Mortgaged Properties at some
future date without receiving full payment therefor at the time of delivery and (b) has produced gas, in any material amount, subject to, and is, nor is any of the Mortgaged Properties, subject to balancing rights of third parties or subject to
balancing duties under governmental requirements, except as to such matters for which such Restricted Company has established monetary reserves adequate in an amount to satisfy such obligations and has segregated such reserves from other accounts.

Company is subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

Companies and as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 7.15, no Restricted Company is a party to a material transaction with any of its Affiliates except transactions in the ordinary course of business and upon fair and reasonable terms not

 Section 7.19 Intellectual Property. Except where not a Material Adverse Event (a) each Restricted Company owns or has the right to use
all material licenses, patents, patent applications, copyrights, service marks, trademarks, trademark applications and trade names necessary to continue to conduct its businesses as presently conducted by it and proposed to be conducted by it
immediately after the date of this agreement, (b) each Restricted Company is conducting its business without infringement or claim of infringement of any license, patent, copyright, service mark, trademark, trade name, trade secret or other

therein) and the other factual data furnished by the Restricted Companies as a basis for the estimates set forth therein are true and correct and do not omit any material fact necessary to make said statements not misleading. 
  
 Section 7.22 Working Interest. The Restricted Companies own a
“working interest” in each of the Mortgaged Properties which is not greater than the interest specified in the description of such property in the Collateral Documents, with the term “working interest”, as used herein, meaning
the right to explore for, drill and produce oil, gas or other minerals, whether such right is created by lease or otherwise, and being equivalent to the proportionate part of the cost of exploration, development and marketing of oil, gas and other
minerals borne by the Restricted Companies with respect to each respective property. 
  
 Section 7.23 Net Revenue Interest. The Restricted Companies own a “net revenue interest” in each of the Mortgaged Properties which is not less than the interest specified in the description of

of all royalties, overriding royalties and other interests payable from or measured by production.

Properties subject to, any contract, agreement or other arrangement which would result in a Material Adverse Event. 
  
 Section 7.25 Regulatory Defects. As of the date hereof, Borrower has advised Administrative Agent, in writing, of all regulatory defects of
which the Restricted Companies have been advised or have actual knowledge with respect to the ownership or operation of the Mortgaged Properties. No such regulatory defect results in a Material Adverse Event or affects the Restricted Companies
intended operation of any of the Mineral Interests or the value of the sale of production therefrom.

 Section 8.16 Maintenance of Liens. Each Company shall perform all such acts and execute all such documents as
Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to enable Administrative Agent to report, file and record every instrument that Administrative Agent may deem necessary in order to perfect and maintain the Lender Liens in the Mortgaged
Properties and otherwise to preserve and protect the rights of Administrative Agent and the Lenders in and to the Collateral. 
  
 Section 8.17 Farmout Agreement. Borrower shall cause the “Farmor” under the Farmout Agreement to deliver to Borrower each assignment
earned under the Farmout Agreement in recordable form in the time and manner provided for in the Farmout Agreement, but in no event later than 45 days after such assignment has been earned under the Farmout Agreement. Contemporaneously with the
receipt of any such assignment, Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of its receipt thereof and cause such assignment to be duly and properly recorded and the interests subject of such assignment to be subject to Lender Liens pursuant to
documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. 
  
 Section 8.18 Title Information. 
  
 (a) On or before the delivery to Administrative Agent and Lenders of each Reserve Report required by Section 8.1(c), Borrower will deliver title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
Administrative Agent so that Administrative Agent shall be satisfied with the status of title to at least 80% of the value of the proved Mineral Interests evaluated by such Reserve Report. 
  
 (b) If Borrower has provided title information for additional Mineral
Interests under Section 8.18(a), Borrower shall, within 60 days of notice from Administrative Agent that material title defects or exceptions exist with respect to such additional Mineral Interests, either (i) cure any such material title
defects or exceptions (including defects or exceptions as to priority) which are not permitted by Section 9.4 raised by such information, (ii) substitute acceptable Mortgaged Properties with no material title defects or exceptions except
for Permitted 
  

 37 







 Liens having an equivalent value or (iii) deliver title information in form and substance acceptable to
Administrative Agent so that Administrative Agent shall be satisfied with the status of title to at least 80% of the value of the proved Mineral Interests evaluated by such Reserve Report. 
  
 (c) If Borrower is unable to cure any material title defect requested by
Administrative Agent or Lenders to be cured within the 60-day period or Borrower does not comply with the requirements to provide acceptable title information to the Mineral Interests evaluated in the most recent Reserve Report, such default shall
not be a Potential Default, but instead Administrative Agent and/or the Determining Lenders shall have the right to exercise the following remedy in their sole discretion from time to time, and any failure to so exercise this remedy at any time
shall not be a waiver as to future exercise of the remedy by Administrative Agent or Lenders. To the extent that any material title defect exists with respect to any Mortgaged Property after the 60-day period has elapsed, Administrative Agent may
send a notice to Borrower and Lenders that the then outstanding Total PV shall be reduced by an amount as determined by the Determining Lenders. This new Total PV shall become effective immediately after receipt of such notice. 
  
 Section 8.19 Additional Collateral. In connection with each
redetermination of the Total PV, Borrower shall review the Reserve Report and the list of current Mortgaged Properties (as described in Section 8.1(c)(iii)) to ascertain whether the Mortgaged Properties represent at least 80% of the total value
of the proved Mineral Interests evaluated in the most recently completed Reserve Report after giving effect to exploration and production activities, acquisitions, dispositions and production. In the event that the Mineral Interests do not represent
at least 80% of such total value, then Borrower shall, and shall cause the Restricted Companies to, grant, within thirty (30) days of delivery of the certificate required under Section 8.1(c)(iii), to Administrative Agent as security for
the Obligation a Lender Lien on additional Mineral Interests not already subject to a Lien of the Collateral Documents such that after giving effect thereto, the Mortgaged Properties will represent at least 80% of such total value. All such Liens
will be created and perfected by and in accordance with the provisions of deeds of trust, security agreements and financing statements or other Collateral Documents, all in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent and in sufficient
executed (and acknowledged where necessary or appropriate) counterparts for recording purposes.

judgment.

 ARTICLE XII 
 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES 
  
 Section 12.1 Remedies Upon Default. 
  
 (a) Debtor Relief. If a Default exists under Section 11.3, the commitment to extend credit under this agreement
automatically terminates, the entire unpaid balance of the Obligation automatically becomes due and payable without any action of any kind whatsoever. 
  
 (b) Other Defaults. If any Default exists, subject to the terms of Section 13.5(b), Administrative Agent may (with the consent of, and must,
upon the request of, Determining Lenders), do any one or more of the following: (i) If the maturity of the Obligation has not already been accelerated under Section 12.1(a), declare the entire unpaid balance of all or any part of the
Obligation immediately due and payable, whereupon it is due and payable, (ii) terminate the commitments of Lenders to extend credit under this agreement, (iii) reduce any claim to judgment, and (iv) exercise any and all other legal or
equitable Rights afforded by the Loan Documents, by applicable Laws, or in equity. 
  
 (c) Offset. If a Default exists, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Lender may exercise the Rights of offset and banker’s lien against each and every account and other property, or any
interest therein, which any Restricted Company may now or hereafter have with, or which is now or hereafter in the possession of, that Lender to the extent of the full amount of the Obligation owed to that Lender. 
  
 (d) Production Proceeds. Notify any and all purchasers of production
and take all other actions specified in Section 5.3 of this agreement. 
  
 Section 12.2 Company Waivers. To the extent permitted by Law, Borrower and (pursuant to its Guaranty) each other Restricted Company waives presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice of intention
to accelerate, notice of acceleration, and notice of protest and nonpayment, and agrees that its liability with respect to all or any part of the Obligation is not affected by any renewal or extension in the time of payment of all or any part of the
Obligation, by any indulgence, or by any release or change in any security for the payment of all or any part of the Obligation. 
  
 Section 12.3 Performance by Administrative Agent. If any Company’s covenant, duty, or agreement is not performed in accordance with the
terms of the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent may, while a Default exists, at its option (but subject to the approval of Determining Lenders), perform or attempt to perform that covenant, duty, or agreement on behalf of that Company (and any
amount expended by Administrative Agent in its performance 
  

 44 







 or attempted performance is payable by the Companies, jointly and severally, to Administrative Agent on demand, becomes
part of the Obligation, and bears interest at the Default Rate from the date of Administrative Agent’s expenditure until paid). However, Administrative Agent does not assume and shall never have, except by its express written consent, any
liability or responsibility for the performance of any Company’s covenants, duties, or agreements. 
  
 Section 12.4 Not in Control. Nothing in any Loan Documents gives or may be deemed to give to Administrative Agent or any Lender the Right to
exercise control over any Company’s Real Property (including, without limitation, the Leases and the Mineral Interests), other assets, affairs, or management or to preclude or interfere with any Company’s compliance with any Law or require
any act or omission by any Company that may be harmful to Persons or property. Any “Material Adverse Event” or other materiality or substantiality qualifier of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or other provision of
any Loan Document is included for credit documentation purposes only and does not imply or be deemed to mean that Administrative Agent or any Lender acquiesces in any non-compliance by any Company with any Law, document, or otherwise or does not
expect the Companies to promptly, diligently, and continuously carry out all appropriate removal, remediation, compliance, closure, or other activities required or appropriate in accordance with all Environmental Laws. Administrative Agent’s
and Lenders’ power is limited to the Rights provided in the Loan Documents. All of those Rights exist solely — and may be exercised in manner calculated by Administrative Agent or Lenders in their respective good faith business judgment
— to preserve and protect the Collateral and to assure payment and performance of the Obligation. 
  
 Section 12.5 Course of Dealing. The acceptance by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on the Obligation is not a waiver of
any Default then existing. No waiver by Administrative Agent, Determining Lenders, or Lenders of any Default is a waiver of any other then-existing or subsequent Default. No delay or omission by Administrative Agent, Determining Lenders, or Lenders
in exercising any Right under the Loan Documents impairs that Right or is a waiver thereof or any acquiescence therein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any Right preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
Right under the Loan Documents or otherwise. 
  
 Section 12.6
Cumulative Rights. All Rights available to Administrative Agent, Determining Lenders, and Lenders under the Loan Documents are cumulative of and in addition to all other Rights granted to Administrative Agent, Determining Lenders, and Lenders
at law or in equity, whether or not the Obligation are due and payable and whether or not Administrative Agent, Determining Lenders, or Lenders have instituted any suit for collection, foreclosure, or other action in connection with the Loan
Documents. 
  
 Section 12.7 Application of Proceeds.
Any and all proceeds ever received by Administrative Agent or Lenders from the exercise of any Rights pertaining to the Obligation shall be applied to the Obligation according to Article III. 
  
 Section 12.8 Certain Proceedings. Borrower shall promptly execute
and deliver, or cause the execution and delivery of, all applications, certificates, instruments, registration statements, and all other documents and papers Administrative Agent or Determining Lenders reasonably request in connection with the
obtaining of any consent, approval, registration (other 
  

 45 







 than securities Law registrations), qualification, permit, license, or authorization of any Tribunal or other Person
necessary or appropriate for the effective exercise of any Rights under the Loan Documents. Because Borrower agrees that Administrative Agent’s and Determining Lenders’ remedies at Law for failure of Borrower to comply with the provisions
of this section would be inadequate and that failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, Borrower agrees that the covenants of this section may be specifically enforced. 
  
 Section 12.9 Expenditures by Lenders. Any sums spent by Administrative Agent or any Lender in the exercise of
any Right under any Loan Document is payable by the Companies to Administrative Agent within five Business Days after demand, becomes part of the Obligation, and bears interest at the Default Rate from the date spent until the date repaid.

  
 Section 12.10 Diminution in Value of Collateral.
Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any liability or responsibility whatsoever for any diminution in or loss of value of any collateral now or in the future securing payment or performance of any of the Obligation (other than diminution
in or loss of value caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct). 
  
 ARTICLE XIII 
 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS 
  
 Section 13.1 Administrative Agent. 
  
 (a) Appointment. Each Lender appoints Administrative Agent (and
Administrative Agent accepts appointment) as its nominee and agent, in its name and on its behalf: (i) To act as its nominee and on its behalf in and under all Loan Documents, (ii) to arrange the means whereby its funds are to be made
available to Borrower under the Loan Documents, (iii) to take any action that it properly requests under the Loan Documents (subject to the concurrence of other Lenders as may be required under the Loan Documents), (iv) to receive all
documents and items to be furnished to it under the Loan Documents, (v) to be the secured party, mortgagee, beneficiary, recipient, and similar party in respect of any collateral for the benefit of Lenders, (vi) to promptly distribute to
it all material information, requests, documents, and items received from Borrower under the Loan Documents, (vii) to promptly distribute to it its ratable part of each payment or prepayment (whether voluntary, as proceeds of collateral upon or
after foreclosure, as proceeds of insurance thereon, or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and (viii) to deliver to the appropriate Persons requests, demands, approvals, and consents received from it. However,
Administrative Agent may not be required to take any action that exposes it to personal liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law. 
  
 (b) Successor. Administrative Agent may voluntarily resign as Administrative Agent hereunder upon thirty (30) days notice to Borrower and
Lenders. If the initial or any successor Administrative Agent ever resigns, then Determining Lenders shall (which, if no Default or Potential Default exists, is subject to Borrower’s approval that may not be unreasonably withheld) appoint the
successor Administrative Agent from among Lenders (other than the resigning Administrative Agent). If Determining Lenders fail to appoint a successor Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days after the resigning Administrative Agent has
given notice of resignation, then the resigning Administrative Agent may, on behalf of 
  

 46 







 Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which must be a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus
of at least $1,000,000,000 (as shown on its most recently published statement of condition). Upon its acceptance of appointment as successor Administrative Agent, the successor Administrative Agent succeeds to and becomes vested with all of the
Rights of the prior Administrative Agent, and the prior Administrative Agent is discharged from its duties and obligations of Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and each Lender shall execute the documents that any Lender, the resigning
Administrative Agent, or the successor Administrative Agent reasonably request to reflect the change. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, the provisions of this section inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or not taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. 
  
 (c) Rights as Lender. Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, has the same Rights under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may
exercise those Rights as if it were not acting as Administrative Agent. The term “Lender”, unless the context otherwise indicates, includes Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent’s resignation does not impair or otherwise affect
any Rights that it has or may have in its capacity as an individual Lender. Each Lender and Borrower agree that Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary for Lenders or for Borrower but is simply acting in the capacity described in this agreement to
alleviate administrative burdens for Borrower and Lenders, that Administrative Agent has no duties or responsibilities to Lenders or Borrower except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and that Administrative Agent in its capacity as a
Lender has the same Rights as any other Lender. 
  
 (d) Other
Activities. Administrative Agent or any Lender may now or in the future be engaged in one or more loan, letter of credit, leasing, or other financing transactions with Borrower, act as trustee or depositary for Borrower, or otherwise be engaged
in other transactions with Borrower (collectively, the “other activities”) not the subject of the Loan Documents. Without limiting the Rights of Lenders specifically set forth in the Loan Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor
any Lender is responsible to account to the other Lenders for those other activities, and no Lender shall have any interest in any other Lender’s activities, any present or future guaranties by or for the account of Borrower that are not
contemplated by or included in the Loan Documents, any present or future offset exercised by Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of those other activities, any present or future property taken as security for any of those other activities,
or any property now or hereafter in Administrative Agent’s or any other Lender’s possession or control that may be or become security for the obligations of Borrower arising under the Loan Documents by reason of the general description of
indebtedness secured or of property contained in any other agreements, documents, or instruments related to any of those other activities (but, if any payments in respect of those guaranties or that property or the proceeds thereof is applied by
Administrative Agent or any Lender to reduce the Obligation, then each Lender is entitled to share ratably in the application as provided in the Loan Documents). 
  
 Section 13.2 Expenses. Each Lender shall pay its Pro Rata Part of any reasonable expenses (including, without
limitation, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs of collection) incurred by Administrative Agent (while acting in such capacity) in connection with any of the Loan Documents if Administrative Agent is not reimbursed from
other sources within 
  

 47 







 30 days after incurrence. Each Lender is entitled to receive its Pro Rata Part of any reimbursement that it makes to
Administrative Agent if Administrative Agent is subsequently reimbursed from other sources. 
  
 Section 13.3 Proportionate Absorption of Losses. Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, nothing in the Loan Documents gives any Lender any advantage over any other Lender insofar as the
Obligation is concerned or relieves any Lender from ratably absorbing any losses sustained with respect to the Obligation (except to the extent unilateral actions or inactions by any Lender result in Borrower or any other obligor on the Obligation
having any credit, allowance, setoff, defense, or counterclaim solely with respect to all or any part of that Lender’s Pro Rata Part of the Obligation). 
  
 Section 13.4 Delegation of Duties; Reliance. Lenders may perform any of their duties or exercise any of their Rights under the Loan Documents
by or through Administrative Agent, and Lenders and Administrative Agent may perform any of their duties or exercise any of their Rights under the Loan Documents by or through their respective Representatives. Administrative Agent, Lenders, and
their respective Representatives (a) are entitled to rely upon (and shall be protected in relying upon) any written or oral statement believed by it or them to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or made by the proper Person and,
with respect to legal matters, upon opinion of counsel selected by Administrative Agent or that Lender (but nothing in this clause (a) permits Administrative Agent to rely on (i) oral statements if a writing is required by this agreement
or (ii) any other writing if a specific writing is required by this agreement), (b) are entitled to deem and treat each Lender as the owner and holder of its portion of the Obligation for all purposes until, written notice of the
assignment or transfer is given to and received by Administrative Agent (and any request, authorization, consent, or approval of any Lender is conclusive and binding on each subsequent holder, assignee, or transferee of or Participant in that
Lender’s portion of the Obligation until that notice is given and received), (c) are not deemed to have notice of the occurrence of a Default unless a responsible officer of Administrative Agent, who handles matters associated with the
Loan Documents and transactions thereunder, has actual knowledge or Administrative Agent has been notified by a Lender or Borrower and (d) are entitled to consult with legal counsel (including counsel for Borrower), independent accountants, and
other experts selected by Administrative Agent and are not liable for any action taken or not taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of counsel, accountants, or experts. In this regard, each Lender acknowledges that
Vinson & Elkins L.L.P. is acting in this transaction as special counsel to the Arranger only in respect of the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement, except to the extent otherwise expressly stated in any legal opinion or any Loan Document.
Each other party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein. 
  
 Section 13.5 Limitation of Administrative Agent’s Liability. 
  
 (a) Exculpation. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its
Representatives will be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under the Loan Documents in good faith and believed by it or them to be within the discretion or power conferred upon it or them by the Loan Documents or be
responsible for the consequences of any error of judgment (except for fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct), and neither Administrative Agent nor 
  

 48 







 any of its representatives has a fiduciary relationship with any Lender by virtue of the Loan Documents (but nothing in
this agreement negates the obligation of Administrative Agent to account for funds received by it for the account of any Lender). 
  
 (b) Indemnity. Unless indemnified to its satisfaction against loss, cost, liability, and expense, Administrative Agent may not be compelled to do
any act under the Loan Documents or to take any action toward the execution or enforcement of the powers thereby created or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of the Loan Documents. If Administrative Agent requests instructions from Lenders,
or Determining Lenders, as the case may be, with respect to any act or action in connection with any Loan Document, Administrative Agent is entitled to refrain (without incurring any liability to any Person by so refraining) from that act or action
unless and until it has received instructions. In no event, however, may Administrative Agent or any of its Representatives be required to take any action that it or they determine could incur for it or them criminal or onerous civil liability.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Lender has any right of action against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent’s acting or refraining from acting under this agreement in accordance with instructions of
Determining Lenders. 
  
 (c) Reliance. Administrative Agent
is not responsible to any Lender or any Participant for, and each Lender represents and warrants that it has not relied upon Administrative Agent in respect of, (i) the creditworthiness of any Company and the risks involved to that Lender,
(ii) the effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity, or the due execution of any Loan Document (except by Administrative Agent), (iii) any representation, warranty, document, certificate, report, or statement made therein (except
by Administrative Agent) or furnished thereunder or in connection therewith, (iv) the adequacy of any collateral now or hereafter securing the Obligation or the existence, priority, or perfection of any Lien now or hereafter granted or
purported to be granted on the collateral under any Loan Document or (v) observation of or compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of any Company. EACH LENDER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES AND HOLD THEM HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST (BUT LIMITED TO SUCH LENDER’S COMMITMENT PERCENTAGE OF) ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS,
REASONABLE EXPENSES, AND REASONABLE DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER THAT MAY BE IMPOSED ON, ASSERTED AGAINST, OR INCURRED BY THEM IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED BY THEM UNDER
THE LOAN DOCUMENTS IF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES ARE NOT REIMBURSED FOR SUCH AMOUNTS BY ANY COMPANY. ALTHOUGH ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE INDEMNIFIED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ITS OR THEIR OWN
ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE INDEMNIFIED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ITS OR THEIR OWN FRAUD, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. 
  
 Section 13.6 Default. While a Default exists, Lenders agree to
promptly confer in order that Determining Lenders or Lenders, as the case may be, may agree upon a course of action for 
  

 49 







 the enforcement of the Rights of Lenders. Administrative Agent is entitled to act or refrain from taking any action
(without incurring any liability to any Person for so acting or refraining) unless and until it has received instructions from Determining Lenders. In actions with respect to any Company’s property, Administrative Agent is acting for the
ratable benefit of each Lender. 
  
 Section 13.7
Collateral Matters. 
  
 (a) Each Lender authorizes and
directs Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the Lender Liens and agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent concerning any Collateral (with the consent or at the request of Determining Lenders) in accordance with any
Loan Document, that Administrative Agent’s exercise (with the consent or at the request of Determining Lenders) of powers concerning the Collateral in any Loan Document, and that all other reasonably incidental powers are authorized and binding
upon all Lenders. 
  
 (b) Administrative Agent is authorized on
behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time before a Default or Potential Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Loan Documents related to Collateral that
may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Lender Liens upon the Collateral. 
  
 (c) Except to use the same standard of care that it ordinarily uses for collateral for its sole benefit, Administrative Agent has no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that the
Collateral exists or is owned by any Company or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered or that the Lender Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any
particular priority. 
  
 (d) Administrative Agent shall exercise
the same care and prudent judgment with respect to the Collateral and the Loan Documents as it normally and customarily exercises in respect of similar collateral and security documents. 
  
 (e) Lenders irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lender Lien upon
any Collateral (i) upon full payment of the Obligation, (ii) constituting property being disposed of as permitted under any Loan Document, (iii) constituting property in which no Company owned any interest at the time the Lender Lien
was granted or at any time after that, (iv) constituting property leased to any Company under a lease that has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents or is about to expire and that has not been, and is
not intended by that Company to be, renewed, (v) consisting of an instrument evidencing Debt pledged to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lenders), if the underlying Debt has been paid in full or (vi) if approved, authorized, or
ratified in writing by Lenders. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, Lenders shall confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral under this clause (e). 
  
 Section 13.8 Limitation of Liability. No Lender or any
Participant will incur any liability to any other Lender or Participant except for acts or omissions in bad faith, and neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Participant will incur any liability to any other Person for any act or omission of
any other Lender or any Participant. 
  

 50 







 Section 13.9 Relationship of Lenders. The Loan Documents do not create a partnership or joint
venture among Administrative Agent and Lenders or among Lenders. 
  
 Section 13.10 Benefits of Agreement. None of the provisions of this section inure to the benefit of any Company or any other Person except Administrative Agent and Lenders. Therefore, no Company or any other Person is
responsible or liable for, entitled to rely upon, or entitled to raise as a defense — in any manner whatsoever — the failure of Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with these provisions. 
  
 Section 13.11 Arranger and other Agents. None of Arranger, any
syndication agent or any documentation agent hereunder shall have any duties, responsibilities or liabilities under this agreement or the other Loan Documents other than, if applicable, their duties, responsibilities and liabilities in their
capacity as Lenders hereunder. 
  
 ARTICLE XIV 

MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 Section 14.1 Nonbusiness Days. Any payment or action that is due under any Loan Document on a non-Business Day may be delayed until the
next-succeeding Business Day (but interest shall continue to accrue on any applicable payment until payment is in fact made) unless the payment concerns a LIBOR-Rate Tranche, in which case if the next-succeeding Business Day is in the next calendar
month, then such payment shall be made on the next-preceding Business Day. 
  
 Section 14.2 Communications. Unless otherwise specifically provided, whenever any Loan Document requires or permits any consent, approval, notice, request, or demand from one party to another,
communication must be in writing (which may be by telex or fax) to be effective and shall be deemed to have been given (a) if by telex, when transmitted to the appropriate telex number and the appropriate answer back is received, (b) if by
fax, when transmitted to the appropriate fax number (and all communications sent by fax must be confirmed promptly thereafter by telephone; but any requirement in this parenthetical shall not affect the date when the fax shall be deemed to have been
delivered), (c) if by mail, on the third Business Day after it is enclosed in an envelope and properly addressed, stamped, sealed, and deposited in the appropriate official postal service or (d) if by any other means, when actually
delivered. Until changed by notice pursuant to this agreement, the address (and fax number) for Borrower and Administrative Agent is stated beside their respective signatures to this agreement and for each Lender as set forth in its administrative
questionnaire (in a form supplied by Administrative Agent). 
  
 Section 14.3 Form and Number of Documents. The form, substance, and number of counterparts of each writing to be furnished under this agreement must be satisfactory to Administrative Agent and its counsel. 
  
 Section 14.4 Exceptions to Covenants. No Company may take or fail
to take any action that is permitted as an exception to any of the covenants contained in any Loan Document if that action or omission would result in the breach of any other covenant contained in any Loan Document. 
  

 51 







 Section 14.5 Survival. All covenants, agreements, undertakings, representations, and
warranties made in any of the Loan Documents survive all closings under the Loan Documents and, except as otherwise indicated, are not affected by any investigation made by any party. 
  
 Section 14.6 Governing Law. Unless otherwise stated in any Loan Document, the laws of the State of Texas and of
the United States of America govern the Rights and duties of the parties to the Loan Documents and the validity, construction, enforcement, and interpretation of the Loan Documents. 
  
 Section 14.7 Invalid Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document held to be illegal, invalid, or
unenforceable is fully severable; the appropriate Loan Document shall be construed and enforced as if that provision had never been included; and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the severed
provision. Administrative Agent, Lenders, and each Company party to the affected Loan Document agree to negotiate, in good faith, the terms of a replacement provision as similar to the severed provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and
enforceable. 
  
 Section 14.8 Amendments, Consents,
Conflicts, and Waivers. 
  
 (a) Determining Lenders.
Unless otherwise specifically provided (i) (including in Section 1.12 of the Intercreditor Agreement) the provisions of this agreement may be amended, modified, or waived, only by an instrument in writing executed by Borrower,
Administrative Agent, and Determining Lenders and supplemented only by documents delivered or to be delivered in accordance with the express terms of this agreement and (ii) the other Loan Documents may only be the subject of an amendment,
modification, or waiver that has been approved by Determining Lenders and Borrower. 
  
 (b) All Lenders. Any amendment to or consent or waiver under this agreement or any Loan Document that purports to accomplish any of the following must be by an instrument in writing executed by Borrower and
Administrative Agent and executed (or approved, as the case may be) by each Lender: (i) Extends the due date or decreases the amount of any scheduled payment or amortization of the Obligation beyond the date specified in the Loan Documents,
(ii) decreases any rate or amount of interest, fees, or other sums payable to Administrative Agent or Lenders under this agreement (except such reductions as are contemplated by this agreement), (iii) changes the definition of
“Commitment,” “Commitment Percentage,” “Determining Lenders” or “Pro Rata Part” (iv) increases any one or more Lender’s Commitment, (v) waives compliance with, amends, or fully or partially
releases — except as expressly provided by the Loan Documents or when a Company merges into another Person or dissolves when specifically permitted in the Loan Documents — any Guaranty or Collateral or waives or amends Article V,
Section 8.11 or Section 8.19, or (vi) changes this clause (b) or any other matter specifically requiring the consent of all Lenders under this agreement. 
  

 52 







 (c) Agency Fees. Any amendment or consent or waiver with respect to fees payable solely to
Administrative Agent under a separate letter agreement must be executed in writing only by Administrative Agent and Borrower. 
  
 (d) Conflicts. Any conflict or ambiguity between the terms and provisions of this agreement and terms and provisions in any other Loan Document is
controlled by the terms and provisions of this agreement. 
  
 (e)
Waivers. No course of dealing or any failure or delay by Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any of their respective Representatives with respect to exercising any Right of Administrative Agent or any Lender under this agreement operates as
a waiver thereof. A waiver must be in writing and signed by Administrative Agent and Lenders (or Determining Lenders, if permitted under this agreement) to be effective, and a waiver will be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which it is given. 
  
 Section 14.9
Multiple Counterparts. Any Loan Document may be executed in a number of identical counterparts with the same effect as if all signatories had signed the same document. All counterparts must be construed together to constitute one and the same
instrument. 
  
 Section 14.10 Parties. 
  
 (a) Parties Bound. Each Loan Document binds and inures to the parties
to it, any intended beneficiary of it, and each of their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Company may assign or transfer any Rights or obligations under any Loan Document without first obtaining all Lenders’ consent, and any
purported assignment or transfer without Lenders’ consent is void. No Lender may transfer, pledge, assign, sell any participation in, or otherwise encumber its portion of the Obligation except as permitted by clauses (b) or (c) below.

  
 (b) Participations. Any Lender may (subject to the
provisions of this section, in accordance with applicable Law, in the ordinary course of its business, and at any time) sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its portion of the Obligation. The
selling Lender remains a “Lender” under the Loan Documents, the Participant does not become a “Lender” under the Loan Documents, and the selling Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents remain unchanged. The selling
Lender remains solely responsible for the performance of its obligations and remains the holder of its share of the Principal Debt for all purposes under the Loan Documents. Borrower and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and
directly with the selling Lender in connection with that Lender’s Rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, and each Lender must retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce due obligations of the Companies. Participants have no
Rights under the Loan Documents except as provided below. Subject to the following, each Lender may obtain (on behalf of its Participants) the benefits of Article III with respect to all participations in its part of the Obligation outstanding from
time to time so long as Borrower is not obligated to pay any amount in excess of the amount that would be due to that Lender under Article III calculated as though no participations have been made. No Lender may sell any participating interest under
which the Participant has any Rights to approve any amendment, modification, or waiver of any Loan Document except as to matters in Section 14.8(b)(i) and (ii). 
  

 53 







 (c) Assignments. Each Lender may make assignments to the Federal Reserve Bank. Each Lender may
also assign to one or more assignees (each an “Assignee”) all or any part of its Rights and obligations under the Loan Documents so long as (i) the assignor Lender and Assignee execute and deliver to Administrative Agent and
Borrower for their consent and acceptance (that may not be unreasonably withheld in any instance and is not required if the Assignee is an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, and the consent of Borrower is also not required at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Potential Default) an assignment and assumption agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit E (an “Assignment”) and pay to Administrative Agent a processing fee of
$3,500, (ii) the assignment must be for a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 and the assigning Lender (if not assigning the entire principal amount of its loan) must retain a minimum total principal amount of $5,000,000 and (iii) the
conditions for that assignment set forth in the applicable Assignment are satisfied. The Effective Date in each Assignment must (unless a shorter period is agreeable to Borrower and Administrative Agent) be at least five Business Days after it is
executed and delivered by the assignor Lender and the Assignee to Administrative Agent and Borrower for acceptance. Once that Assignment is accepted by Administrative Agent and Borrower, and subject to all of the following occurring, then, on and
after the Effective Date stated in it (i) the Assignee automatically becomes a party to this agreement and, to the extent provided in that Assignment, has the Rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, (ii) the assignor
Lender, to the extent provided in that Assignment, is released from its obligations under this agreement and its reimbursement obligations under this agreement and, in the case of an Assignment covering all of the remaining portion of the assignor
Lender’s Rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, that Lender ceases to be a party to the Loan Documents, (iii) Borrower shall execute and deliver to the assignor Lender and the Assignee the appropriate Notes in accordance with
this agreement following the transfer, (iv) upon delivery of the Notes under clause (iii) preceding, the assignor Lender shall return to Borrower all Notes previously delivered to that Lender under this agreement and (v) Schedule
2 is automatically deemed to be amended to reflect the name, address, telecopy number, and the principal amount of the Borrowing of the Assignee and the remaining principal amount of the Borrowing of the assignor Lender, and Administrative Agent
shall prepare and circulate to Borrower and Lenders an amended Schedule 2 reflecting those changes. 
  
 Section 14.11 VENUE, SERVICE OF PROCESS, AND JURY TRIAL. BORROWER AND (PURSUANT TO ITS GUARANTY) EACH RESTRICTED COMPANY, IN EACH CASE FOR
ITSELF AND ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, IRREVOCABLY (a) SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS IN TEXAS, (b) WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOT OR IN THE FUTURE
HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LOAN DOCUMENT AND THE OBLIGATION BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, OR IN THE UNITED STATES COURTS LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS,
(c) WAIVES ANY CLAIMS THAT ANY LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE FOREGOING COURTS HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, (d) CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THOSE COURTS IN ANY LITIGATION BY THE MAILING OF COPIES OF
THAT PROCESS BY CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, POSTAGE PREPAID, BY HAND DELIVERY, OR BY DELIVERY BY A NATIONALLY-RECOGNIZED 
  

 54 







 COURIER SERVICE, AND SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETE UPON DELIVERY OF THE LEGAL PROCESS AT ITS ADDRESS FOR PURPOSES OF
THIS AGREEMENT, (e) AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING AGAINST ANY PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE OBLIGATION MAY BE BROUGHT IN ONE OF THE FOREGOING COURTS AND (f) WAIVES TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUR OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THE SCOPE OF EACH OF THE FOREGOING WAIVERS IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL
DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. BORROWER AND
(PURSUANT TO ITS GUARANTY) EACH OTHER RESTRICTED COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THESE WAIVERS ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S AND EACH LENDER’S AGREEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND
EACH LENDER HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THESE WAIVERS IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON EACH OF THESE WAIVERS IN RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. BORROWER AND (PURSUANT TO ITS GUARANTY) EACH
OTHER RESTRICTED COMPANY FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THESE WAIVERS WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AGREES TO EACH WAIVER FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THE WAIVERS IN THIS SECTION
ARE IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT THEY MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THESE WAIVERS APPLY TO ANY FUTURE RENEWALS, EXTENSIONS, AMENDMENTS, MODIFICATIONS, OR REPLACEMENTS IN RESPECT OF THE APPLICABLE LOAN DOCUMENT. IN CONNECTION WITH
ANY LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT. 
  
 Section 14.12 ENTIRETY. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN BORROWER, LENDERS, AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 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. 
  
 Section 14.13 USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001))
(the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Borrower in
accordance with the Act.

 ANNEX I 






 ANNEX I 
 TERMS OF SUBORDINATION 
  
 Section 1.1 Subordination of Obligations. Borrower and each Restricted Company covenant and agree, and each Term Lender by its acceptance of a Term Note covenants and agrees, that the payment of the Subordinated Obligations
shall, to the extent set forth in this Annex I, be subordinate and junior and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding on the date hereof or hereafter created, incurred, assumed
or guaranteed. 
  
 Section 1.2 Payment Default or
Acceleration. Except under circumstances when the terms of Section 1.5 of this Annex I are applicable, if (a) a Payment Default or Senior Indebtedness Acceleration shall have occurred and be continuing and (b) the Term Lenders or
the Term Administrative Agent or other representative shall have received a Payment Default Notice, then neither Borrower nor any Restricted Company may make, and no Term Lender shall accept, receive or collect, any direct or indirect payment or
distribution of any kind or character (in cash, securities, other Property, by setoff, or otherwise other than Reorganization Securities) of any properties or assets of Borrower or any Restricted Company on account of the Subordinated Obligations
during the Payment Blockage Period; provided, however, that in the case of any payment on or in respect of any Subordinated Obligation that would (in the absence of any such Payment Default Notice) have been due and payable on any date (a
“Scheduled Payment Date”) during such Payment Blockage Period pursuant to the terms of the Term Notes as in effect on the date hereof or as amended consistent with the provisions of Section 1.12 of this Annex I, the provisions
of this Section 1.2 shall not prevent the making and acceptance of such payment (a “Scheduled Payment”), together with any additional default interest as is due on the Term Notes, on or after the date immediately following the
termination of such Payment Blockage Period. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, either Borrower or any Restricted Company shall make any payment or distribution to any Term Lender prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this
Section 1.2, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and immediately shall be paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or the Senior Indebtedness Representative for application
against the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until such Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash. Any Payment Default Notice shall be deemed received by the Term Lenders upon the date of actual receipt by the Term Lenders or the Term
Administrative Agent or other representative of such Payment Default Notice in writing. 
  
 Section 1.3 Non-Payment Default. Except under circumstances when the terms of Section 1.2 of this Annex I or Section 1.5 of this Annex I are applicable, if (a) a Non-Payment Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, (b) the Term Lenders or the Term Administrative Agent or other representative shall have received a Non-Payment Default Notice, and (c) no Non-Payment Default Notice shall have been given within the 360 day
period immediately preceding the giving of such Non-Payment Default Notice, then neither Borrower nor any Restricted Company may make, and no Term Lender shall accept, receive or collect, any direct or indirect payment or distribution of any kind or
character (in cash, securities, other Property, by setoff, or otherwise other than Reorganization Securities) of any properties or assets of Borrower 
  
 ANNEX I 






 or any Restricted Company on account of the Subordinated Obligations during the Non-Payment Blockage Period; provided,
however, that in the case of any Scheduled Payment on or in respect of any Subordinated Obligation that would (in the absence of any such Non-Payment Default Notice) have been due and payable on any Scheduled Payment Date during such Non-Payment
Blockage Period pursuant to the terms of the Term Notes as in effect on the date hereof or as amended consistent with the requirements of Section 1.12 of this Annex I, the provisions of this Section 1.3 shall not prevent the making and
acceptance of such Scheduled Payment, together with any additional default interest as is due on the Term Notes, on or after the date immediately following the termination of such Non-Payment Blockage Period. In the event that, notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrower or any Restricted Company shall make any payment or distribution to any Term Lender prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.3, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for
the benefit of and immediately shall be paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or the Senior Indebtedness Representative for application against the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until such Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in
cash. Any Non-Payment Default Notice shall be deemed received by the Term Lenders upon the date of actual receipt by the Term Lenders or the Term Administrative Agent or other representative of such Non-Payment Default Notice in writing. 

 
 Section 1.4 Standstill. At any time that the Term Lenders are
not permitted to receive payments on the Subordinated Obligations pursuant to either Section 1.2 or 1.3 of this Annex I, the Term Lenders and the Term Administrative Agent or other representative of the Term Lenders will not commence any
Enforcement Action relative to Borrower or any Restricted Company during the Standstill Period. Upon the termination of the Standstill Period, the Term Lenders may exercise all rights or remedies they may have in law or equity; provided, however,
that if a Standstill Period terminates pursuant to clause (e) thereof, no Term Lender and no agent or representative thereof shall exercise any remedies against, or attempt to foreclose upon, garnish, sequester or execute upon, any Property
known to it as constituting collateral for the Senior Indebtedness (other than to file or record any judgment Liens it may have obtained against such collateral) during the period that such Standstill Period would have been in effect but for
termination pursuant to clause (e) of the definition of “Standstill Period;” provided further, that the Payment Blockage Period or the Non-Payment Blockage Period, as the case may be, if not also terminated, shall continue for its
full period notwithstanding the termination of the Standstill Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Standstill Period may be commenced while any other Standstill Period exists or within 180 days following the termination of any prior Standstill
Period (provided that this sentence shall not relieve any Term Lender of its obligation to provide notice under Section 1.9 of this Annex I). 
  
 Section 1.5 Insolvency; Bankruptcy; Etc. In the event of the institution of any Insolvency Proceeding relative to Borrower or any Restricted
Company, then: 
  
 (a) The holders of the Senior Indebtedness
shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of the Senior Indebtedness before the Term Lenders are entitled to receive any direct or indirect payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, Property or securities (other
than Reorganization Securities) on account of the Subordinated Obligations. 
  
 ANNEX I 






 (b) Any direct or indirect payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, Property or
securities, by setoff or otherwise, which may be payable or deliverable in such proceedings in respect of the Subordinated Obligations but for the provisions of this Annex I shall be paid or delivered by the Person making such payment or

make payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid; provided, however, that no such delivery of any Reorganization Securities shall be made to any holders of the Senior Indebtedness. In the event that, notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 1.5, any Term Lender shall have received any such payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, Property or securities, by setoff or otherwise, before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in

confer to the holder of any Senior Indebtedness the right to vote on behalf of the Term Lenders in any Insolvency Proceedings. 
  
 Section 1.6 No Impairment. No right of any present or future holder of Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall
at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of Borrower or any Restricted Company or by any non-compliance by Borrower or any Restricted Company with the terms, provisions, and covenants of this Annex I,
the Term Loan Agreement or the Term Notes, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such Term Lender may have or be otherwise charged with. The provisions of this Annex I shall be enforceable directly by any present or future holder of the Senior
Indebtedness and/or the Senior Indebtedness Representative. 
  
 Section 1.7 Rights of Creditors; Subrogation. The provisions of this Annex I are for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness on the one hand, and the Term Lenders on the other hand,
and nothing herein shall impair, as between Borrower and the Restricted Companies and the Term Lenders, the obligation of Borrower and the Restricted Companies, which are unconditional and absolute, to pay to the Term Lenders the principal thereof
and interest thereon in accordance with their terms and the provisions thereof, nor shall anything herein, except as otherwise provided in Section 1.4 of this Annex I, prevent the Term Lenders from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by
applicable law or hereunder upon default under the Term Loan Agreement or under the Term Notes (including the right to demand payment and sue for performance thereof and of the Term Notes and to accelerate the maturity thereof as provided by the
terms of the Term Notes), subject to the rights 
  
 ANNEX I







 of holders of the Senior Indebtedness under this Annex I. Upon payment in full of the Senior Indebtedness in cash and
termination of the commitments of any holder of the Senior Indebtedness to make loans or extensions of credit, and expiration or termination of all letters of credit issued by any holder of the Senior Indebtedness, the Term Lenders shall, to the
extent of any payments or distributions paid or delivered to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or otherwise applied to the Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Annex I, be subrogated to the rights of the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of Borrower or any Restricted Company made on Senior Indebtedness (and any security therefor) until the Subordinated Obligations shall be paid in full (and, for this purpose, no such
payments or distributions paid or delivered to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or otherwise applied to the Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed to have discharged the Subordinated Obligations), and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no
payments to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, assets, stock, or obligations to which the Term Lenders would be entitled except for the provisions of this Annex I shall, as between Borrower and the Restricted Companies, any of their
respective creditors (other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness), and the Term Lenders, be deemed to be a payment by Borrower or any Restricted Company to or on account of Senior Indebtedness. The fact that failure to make any payment on
account of the Subordinated Obligations is caused by reason of the operation of any provision of this Annex I shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default. 
  
 Section 1.8 Payments on Senior Indebtedness. In the event that any Term Lender determines in good faith that
evidence is required with respect to the right of any holder of the Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Annex I or the amount of such participation, such Term Lender may request such Person to furnish
evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of such Term Lender as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the
rights of such Person under this Annex I, and if such evidence is not furnished, such Term Lender may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment; provided that, upon the
written request of such Person to such Term Lender, such payment shall be made to the court having jurisdiction over such judicial determination or to another Person mutually satisfactory to such Person and such Term Lender, as escrowee, to be held
and invested pending such judicial determination in accordance with such instructions as shall be mutually satisfactory to such Person and such Term Lender and upon such judicial determination becoming final and non-appealable to be distributed in
accordance therewith to the Person entitled thereto. 
  
 Section 1.9 Notice of Acceleration, Enforcement Action. 
  
 (a) Each Term Lender agrees that in the event any Default shall occur, and as a result thereof, any Term Lender or the Term Administrative Agent or other representative of such Term Lender accelerates maturity of the
Term Notes, then such Term Lender or the Term Administrative Agent or other representative shall give prompt (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) notice thereof in writing to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or the Senior
Indebtedness Representative. Neither Borrower nor any Restricted Company may pay the Term Notes until ten (10) Business Days after the Senior Indebtedness Representative receives the notice described above and, after that ten (10) Business
Day period, may pay the Term Notes, and the Term Lenders may receive or collect such payment, only if the provisions of this Annex I do not prohibit such payment at that time. 
  
 ANNEX I 






 (b) Each Term Lender agrees that in the event any Default shall occur, and as a result thereof, any Term
Lender or the Term Administrative Agent or other representative of such Term Lender intends to commence any Enforcement Action, then such Term Lender or the Term Administrative Agent or other representative shall first deliver notice thereof in
writing to the Senior Indebtedness Representative both (i) not less than ten (10) days prior to taking any such Enforcement Action, and (ii) one (1) Business Day after such Enforcement Action is taken. 
  
 Section 1.10 Reinstatement. The provisions of this Annex I shall
remain in force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness and the termination of all commitments of any holder of the Senior Indebtedness to make loans or extensions of credit, and expiration or termination of all
letters of credit issued by any holder of the Senior Indebtedness. To the extent any payment of or distribution in respect of the Senior Indebtedness (whether by or on behalf of Borrower or any of the Restricted Companies, as proceeds of security or
enforcement of any right of set off or otherwise) is declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to Borrower or any Restricted Company or any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other
similar person under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, fraudulent conveyance or similar law, then if such payment or distribution is recovered by, or paid over to, Borrower or any Restricted Company or such receiver, trustee in bankruptcy,
liquidating trustee, agent or other similar Person, the Senior Indebtedness or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as if such payment has not occurred and the provisions of this Annex I
shall continue to be applicable in respect of said reinstated Senior Indebtedness. 
  
 Section 1.11 Rights of Holders of the Senior Indebtedness. The holders of the Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time subject to the terms of the Senior Indebtedness, without the consent
of or notice to the Term Lenders or the Term Administrative Agent or other representative of the Term Lenders, without incurring responsibility to the Term Lenders and without impairing or releasing the subordination or other benefits provided in
this Annex I or the obligations hereunder of the Term Lenders to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew, increase

Restricted Company or any other Person. The foregoing provisions are not intended to permit a change to the definition of “Senior Indebtedness”. 
  
 Section 1.12 Amendments. No amendment of this Annex I, or the definitions used in this Annex I, or which would have the effect of modifying
this Annex I, or the definitions used in this Annex I, shall be effective unless it is in writing and made with the prior written consent of each of the Required Senior Revolving Lenders or by the Senior Indebtedness Representative acting at their
written discretion on their behalf. 
  
 ANNEX I 






 Section 1.13 Identity of Term Lenders for Notice Purposes. For purposes of any notice
required or permitted to be given hereunder by the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or the Senior Indebtedness Representative to the Term Lenders, or any of them, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and the Senior Indebtedness Representative
shall be entitled to rely, conclusively, on the identity and address of each Term Lender as set forth in the Term Loan Agreement or as otherwise set forth in the most recent notice received by the Senior Indebtedness Representative from a Term
Lender referring to the Term Loan Agreement for purposes of providing the identity and address of each Term Lender. The Term Lenders agree that any notices required to be given to the Term Lenders shall be effective if such notice is given to the
Term Administrative Agent or other representative of the Term Lenders. For so long as the Subordinated Obligations are outstanding, the Term Lenders agree to designate and maintain an agent or other representative for such purposes. 
  
 Section 1.14 Liens. 
  
 (a) All Liens granted by Borrower, or, if applicable, any Restricted
Company, which at any time secure the Term Loan Agreement, any Term Note or any other Term Loan Document are hereby made, and will at all times prior to the full payment or discharge of the Senior Indebtedness be, subject and subordinate to all
Liens granted by Borrower or any Restricted Company which at any time secure the Senior Indebtedness, which subordination shall be effective whether or not all such Liens securing Senior Indebtedness have been properly recorded, filed and otherwise
perfected prior to all such Liens securing any Term Note and regardless of the relative priority of such Liens as determined without regard to this Annex I. The mortgages included in the Senior Revolving Credit Documents do (and other mortgages,
security agreements and similar Senior Revolving Credit Documents may) describe the indebtedness secured thereby in a manner which might include indebtedness other than the Senior Indebtedness. For so long as any Term Note is outstanding, as between
the Term Lenders and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, only the Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed to be secured by any Liens granted under the Senior Revolving Credit Documents. 
  
 (b) Each Term Lender agrees that it will not initiate, join in or prosecute any claim, action or other proceeding
challenging the validity or enforceability of the Senior Indebtedness or the Liens securing the Senior Indebtedness.

 LITIGATION 
  

	1.	Gulf Coast Vacuum Services Superfund Site. 

  
 This is an action by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) seeking to recover from potentially responsible parties the costs required to clean up
“hazardous substances” at an oil field waste disposal site in the State of Louisiana. Total cleanup costs have been estimated to be $15.4 million using a bioremediation method and $38 million if an incineration method is used. Pursuant to
a consent decree, the Company has agreed to pay 3.09% of the costs expended up to $16.4 million, 1.94% of the costs expended from $16.4 million to $23 million, and 1.37% of the costs expended in excess of $23 million. The Company continues to pay
its share of such costs as assessments are issued. 
  

	2.	Ena Thibodeaux Broussard et al. vs. LLOG Exploration Co., No. 69189, Fifteenth Judicial District Court, Vermilion Parish, Louisiana. 

  
 This action was commenced by Broussard et al. against LLOG Exploration. The
plaintiffs claim to be owners of unleased interests in the Siph 3 RA SU A Unit in the Tigre Lagoon Field, Vermilion Parish, Louisiana. The plaintiffs claim that they have received no payment for their share of production from the unit well and that
they have not been provided with any drilling or completion cost data. The plaintiffs sued LLOG as the current operator of the unit. In response, LLOG filed a third party demand against Goodrich Petroleum Company of Louisiana and against Unit
Petroleum Company, claiming that Goodrich’s predecessor, American National Petroleum Company, and Unit Petroleum were prior operators of the well in question, and that, if LLOG has any liability to the plaintiffs, Goodrich and Unit Petroleum
are liable to LLOG. There has been no activity on this case since November, 1997. Given the inactivity on this case, we have not evaluated this matter from the standpoint of liability or the potential exposure for damages. In the event this case is
re-activated, management will defend it vigorously. 
  

	3.	Richard Golden King vs. The Board of Commissioners of the Orleans Levee District et al., No. 37-085, 25th Judicial District Court, Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana.


  
 The plaintiff, King, filed suit against the
Orleans Levee District, Patrick Petroleum Corporation of Michigan (a predecessor of Goodrich), Chevron Oil Company and Bass Oil Company, claiming to be the owner of royalty interests underlying the Bohemia Spillway in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana.
King contends that, between the period from January 1, 1985 through February and April, 1992, royalties were paid to the Orleans Levee District that should have been paid to him, and the petition seeks recovery of those royalties. The suit was
originally filed in February, 1993, but King did not serve any of the defendants until February and March, 1998. Goodrich filed an exception of prematurity, contending that it was entitled to notice of the claim prior to the commencement of the
lawsuit. This case has been dormant since July, 1998. Management intends to defend this action vigorously.

	4.	Alonzo Fuller, Sr. et al. vs. Exxon Corporation et al., No. 99-0774-RV-S, United States District Court, Southern District of Alabama, Southern Division.


  
 This action was filed on August 19, 1999,
in state court in Clarke County, Alabama and then removed to federal court, as indicated in the caption above. The plaintiffs in this action purport to represent the heirs and assigns of the lessors under a 1949 mineral lease to Humble Oil and
Refining Company. The plaintiffs seek to establish a class action on behalf of themselves and the other owners of mineral interests under the lease. The plaintiffs claim that the lease covers 46.5 acres of land, but that the various defendants have
paid royalties to the lessors as though the lease covers only 15.5 acres. The defendants are purportedly the parties who operated various wells affecting the lease. The plaintiffs’ claims are quite old and it is anticipated that the statute of
limitations has run. The case is currently in the discovery stage, and management intends to defend this action vigorously. 
  

	5.	LeJeune Brothers, L.L.C. vs. Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. et al., No. 101228, 16th Judicial District Court, Iberia Parish, Louisiana. 

  
 This suit was filed against Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C., as the
successor of Hawthorn Oil & Gas Corp., and other defendants who allegedly participated in oil and gas activities on the plaintiff’s property over a period of time spanning twenty-eight years. The plaintiff alleges that the activities
of the defendants damaged its property and caused other related injuries. The plaintiff seeks an undisclosed sum in ordinary damages, punitive damages, the cost to assess and restore the property, and the diminution of the property’s value. The
company has filed third party demands against successor operators of the property. Discovery is getting underway in this case and management intends to defend it vigorously. 
  

	6.	John L. Germany et al. vs. Texaco, Inc. et al., No. 101775, 16th Judicial District Court, Iberia Parish, Louisiana. 

  
 This suit was filed against Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C., as the
successor of Patrick Petroleum Corporation, and other defendants who allegedly participated in oil and gas activities on the plaintiff’s property over a period of time spanning sixty-five years. The plaintiff alleges that the activities of the
defendants damaged its property and caused other related injuries. The plaintiff seeks an undisclosed sum in ordinary damages, punitive damages, the cost to assess and restore the property, and the diminution of the property’s value. Discovery
has just commenced in this case and management intends to defend it vigorously. The company has been advised that it is not a primary target in this action. The company has settled this case for a nominal sum, and it should be dismissed soon.

	7.	St. Martin Parish School Board v. Texaco, Inc. et al., 16th Judicial District Court, St. Martin Parish, Louisiana. 

  
 This suit was filed against Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. and other defendants who allegedly participated in oil and gas activities on the
plaintiff’s property over a period of time spanning several decades. The plaintiff alleges that the activities of the defendants damaged its property and caused other related injuries. The plaintiff seeks an undisclosed sum in ordinary damages,
punitive damages, the cost to assess and restore the property, and the diminution of the property’s value. Discovery has just commenced in this case and management intends to defend it vigorously. The company acquired its interest in the field
in 2003 from Summit Energy Company, one of the defendants, and believes that Summit Energy and others will be primarily responsible for any damages alleged by the plaintiff. 
  

	8.	Bonin Properties, Inc. v. Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. et al., No 2004-2584, 14th Judicial District Court, Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana. 

  
 This suit was filed against Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. and other
defendants who allegedly participated in oil and gas activities on the plaintiff’s property over a period of time spanning several decades. The plaintiff alleges that the activities of the defendants damaged its property and caused other
related injuries. The plaintiff seeks an undisclosed sum in ordinary damages, punitive damages, the cost to assess and restore the property, and the diminution of the property’s value. Discovery has just commenced in this case and management
intends to defend it vigorously. 
  

	9.	State of Louisiana et al. vs. Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C. et al., No. 82174, 15th Judicial District Court, Vermilion Parish, Louisiana. 

  
 This suit was filed against Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C., as the
successor of Hawthorne Oil and Gas Corporation, and other defendants who allegedly participated in oil and gas activities on the plaintiff’s property over a period of time spanning several decades. The plaintiff alleges that the activities of
the defendants damaged its property and caused other related injuries. The plaintiff seeks an undisclosed sum in ordinary damages, punitive damages, the cost to assess and restore the property, and the diminution of the property’s value. This
suit was just commenced on January 26, 2005, and management intends to defend it vigorously.

 Exhibit D 






 EXHIBIT E 
  
 ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of
                    , between
                             (“Assignor”) and
                             (“Assignee”). 
  
 Goodrich Petroleum Company, L.L.C., a Louisiana limited liability company
(“Borrower”) certain lenders (“Lenders”), and BNP Paribas, a foreign banking corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of France (in its capacity as Administrative Agent for Lenders,
“Administrative Agent”), are party to the Second Lien Term Loan Agreement (as renewed, extended, amended, or restated, the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of November 17, 2005, all of the defined terms in which
have the same meanings when used — unless otherwise defined — in this agreement. This agreement is entered into as required by Section 14.10(c) of the Credit Agreement and, if required pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, is
not effective until consented to by Borrower and Administrative Agent, which consents may not under the Credit Agreement be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 ACCORDINGLY, for adequate and sufficient consideration, Assignor and Assignee agree as follows: 
  
 1. Assignment and Assumption. By this agreement, and effective as of
                     (which must be at least five Business Days after the execution and delivery of this agreement to both Borrower, if
applicable, and Administrative Agent for consent, the “Effective Date”), Assignor sells and assigns to Assignee (without recourse to Assignor) and Assignee purchases and assumes from Assignor a
        % interest (the “Assigned Interest”), which, if not equal to 100%, must be a percentage, when computed as an aggregate dollar amount, that is at least $5,000,000, in and to all of
Assignor’s Rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement as of the Effective Date, including, without limitation, the Assigned Interest in (a) the Note held by Assignor as of the Effective Date, (b) all Principal Debt owed to
Assignor on the Effective Date and (c) all interest accruing in respect of the Assigned Interest after the Effective Date. 
  
 2. Assignor Provisions. Assignor (a) represents and warrants to Assignee that as of the Effective Date (i) the following principal amounts are owed to it
without reduction for any assignments that have not yet become effective: 
  

				
	 Item

	  	Amount


	 Principal Debt of Term Facility
	  	$	 

  
 and (ii) Assignor is the legal
and beneficial owner of the Assigned Interest, which is free and clear of any adverse claim, and (b) makes no representation or warranty to Assignee and assumes no responsibility to Assignee with respect to (i) any statements, warranties,
or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency, or value of any Loan Document, or (iii) the financial condition of any Company or the
performance or observance by any Company of any of its obligations under any Loan Document. 
  
 Exhibit E - 1 






 3. Assignee Provisions. Assignee (a) represents and warrants to Assignor, Borrower, and Administrative Agent
that Assignee is legally authorized to enter into this agreement, (b) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement, copies of the Current Financials, and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate to make its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this agreement, (c) agrees with Assignor, Borrower, and Administrative Agent that Assignee shall — independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, Assignor, or any other Lender
and based on such documents and information as Assignee deems appropriate at the time — continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents, (d) appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to
take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents and all other reasonably-incidental powers, (e) agrees with Assignor,
Borrower, and Administrative Agent that Assignee shall perform and comply with all provisions of the Loan Documents applicable to Lenders in accordance with their respective terms, and (f) if Assignee is not organized under the Laws of the
United States of America or one of its states, it (i) represents and warrants to Assignor, Administrative Agent, and Borrower that no Taxes are required to be withheld by Assignor, Administrative Agent, or Borrower with respect to any payments
to be made to it in respect of the Obligations, and it has furnished to Administrative Agent and Borrower two duly completed copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or any other form acceptable to Administrative Agent
that entitles Assignee to exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax on all interest payments under the Loan Documents, (ii) covenants to provide Administrative Agent and Borrower a new Forms W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or other form acceptable to
Administrative Agent upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form according to Law, duly executed and completed by it, and to comply from time to time with all Laws with regard to the withholding Tax exemption, and
(iii) agrees with Administrative Agent and Borrower that, if any of the foregoing is not true or the applicable forms are not provided, then Administrative Agent and Borrower (without duplication) may deduct and withhold from interest payments
under the Loan Documents any United States federal-income Tax at the full rate applicable under the Code. 
  
 4. Credit Agreement. From and after the Effective Date (a) Assignee shall be a party to the Credit Agreement and (to the extent provided in this agreement) have the Rights and obligations of a Lender under
the Loan Documents and (b) Assignor shall (to the extent provided in this agreement) relinquish its Rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents. On the Effective Date, after giving effect to this agreement, but without
giving effect to any other assignments that have not yet become effective, Assignor’s principal amount of the Principal Debt (which, if positive, must be at least $5,000,000) and Assignee’s total principal amount will be as follows:

  

				
	 Lender

	  	Principal


	 Assignor
	  	$	 
	 Assignee
	  	$	 

  
 Exhibit E - 2







 5. Notes. Assignor and Assignee request Borrower to issue new Notes to Assignor and Assignee in the amounts of
their respective principal amounts of the Principal Debt under Paragraph 4 above and otherwise issued in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Upon delivery of those Notes, Assignor shall return to Borrower the Note previously delivered to Assignor
under the Credit Agreement. 
  
 6. Payments and Adjustments. From and after
the Effective Date, Administrative Agent shall make all payments in respect of the Assigned Interest (including payments of principal, interest, fees, and other amounts) to Assignee. Assignor and Assignee shall make all appropriate adjustments in
payments for periods before the Effective Date by Administrative Agent or with respect to the making of this assignment directly between themselves. 
  
 7. Conditions Precedent. Paragraphs 1 through 5 above are not effective until (a) counterparts of this agreement are executed and delivered by Assignor and
Assignee to — and are executed in the spaces below by — Borrower and Administrative Agent and (b) Administrative Agent receives from Assignor or Assignee a $3,500 processing fee. 
  
 8. Incorporated Provisions. Although this agreement is not a Loan Document, the
provisions of Sections 1 and 14 of the Credit Agreement applicable to Loan Documents are incorporated into this instrument by reference the same as if this agreement were a Loan Document and those provisions were set forth in this agreement
verbatim. 
  
 9. Communications. For purposes of Section 14.2 of the
Credit Agreement, Assignee’s address and telecopy number — until changed under that section — are beside its signature below. 
  
 10. Amendments, Etc. No amendment, waiver, or discharge to or under this agreement is valid unless in writing that is signed by the party against whom it is sought
to be enforced and is otherwise in conformity with the requirements of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 11. ENTIRETY. THIS AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN ASSIGNOR AND ASSIGNEE ABOUT ITS SUBJECT MATTER AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL
AGREEMENTS OF ASSIGNOR AND ASSIGNEE. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN ASSIGNOR AND ASSIGNEE. 
  
 12. Parties. This agreement binds and benefits Assignor, Assignee, and their respective successors and assigns that are permitted under the Credit Agreement.
