 SECTION 2.1 Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably: 

(a) guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration,
acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of any Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, and including all amounts in
respect of indemnities by any Borrower of any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Agent, and 
 (b) indemnifies and holds
harmless each Lender Party for any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by such Lender Party, as the case may be, in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty; 

  
 2 












 provided, however, that the Guarantor shall be liable under this Guaranty for the maximum
amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering this Guaranty, as it relates to the Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount. This
Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and the Guarantor specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary or required that any Lender Party exercise any right, assert any claim or demand or enforce any remedy
whatsoever against any Borrower (or any other Person) before or as a condition to the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. 
 SECTION 2.2
Acceleration of Guaranty. The Guarantor agrees that, in the event of the dissolution or insolvency of any Borrower or any Guarantor, or the inability or failure of any Borrower or any Guarantor to pay debts as they become due, or an
assignment by any Borrower or any Guarantor for the benefit of creditors, or the commencement of any case or proceeding in respect of any Borrower or any Guarantor under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws, which, if commenced by any Person
other than any Borrower, is not dismissed within 60 days, or the appointment of an administrator to any Borrower, or the appointment of a receiver, receiver and manager, or similar officer being appointed to all or any of the assets and undertaking
of any Borrower, or, in addition to assignment for the benefit of creditors, an arrangement, compromise, or composition with any Borrower’s creditors or a class of them, or the liquidation or winding up of any Borrower or the commencement of
proceedings to do so, and if such event shall occur at a time when any of the Obligations of any Borrower may not then be due and payable, the Guarantor will pay to the Lender Parties in the United States of America, forthwith the full amount which
would be payable hereunder by the Guarantor if all such Obligations were then due and payable. 
 SECTION 2.3 Guaranty Absolute, etc.
This Guaranty shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment, and, subject to Section 2.9 hereto, shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations of any
Borrower have been paid in full, all obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall have been paid in full and all Commitments shall have terminated. The Guarantor guarantees that the Obligations of any Borrower will be paid strictly in accordance
with the terms of the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document under which they arise, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Lender Party with
respect thereto. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty with respect to the Obligations of any Borrower shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of: 

(a) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; 

(b) the failure of any Lender Party (i) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any
Borrower or any other Person (including any other guarantor) under the provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, or (ii) to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of, or collateral securing, any
Obligations of any Borrower; 
 (c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or
any of the Obligations of any Borrower, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Obligation of any Borrower; 

  
 3 












 (d) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations
of any Borrower for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise; 
 (e) any
amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; 

(f) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or
any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, held by any Lender Party securing any of the Obligations of any Borrower; 

(g) any Lender Party becoming a party to or bound by any compromise, moratorium, assignment of property, scheme of arrangement,
composition of debts or scheme of reconstruction by or relating to any Person; or 
 (h) any other circumstance which might
otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Borrower, any surety or any guarantor, 
 and shall not be subject to
(and the Guarantor hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other
event or occurrence affecting, any Obligations of any Borrower or otherwise. 
 SECTION 2.4 Reinstatement, etc. The Guarantor agrees
that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Lender Party, upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, the appointment of an administrator to any Borrower, the appointment of a receiver, receiver and manager or similar officer being appointed to all or any of the assets and undertaking of any Borrower, in
addition to assignment for the benefit of creditors, any arrangement, compromise, or composition with any Borrower’s creditors or a class of them, or the liquidation or winding up of any Borrower or the commencement of proceedings to do so, or
otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 
 SECTION 2.5 Waiver, etc. The Guarantor hereby waives promptness,
diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations of any Borrower and this Guaranty and any requirement that any Agent or any other Lender Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or
Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person (including any other guarantor) or entity or any collateral securing the Obligations of any Borrower. 

SECTION 2.6 Subrogation, etc. The Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by reason of any payment made hereunder,
whether by way of rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution indemnity, proof or claim in liquidation or otherwise, until the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Obligations of any Borrower. Any amount paid to the Guarantor on account
of any payment made hereunder prior to the payment in full of all Obligations of any Borrower shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Lender Parties and shall immediately be paid to the Administrative Agent and credited and
applied against the Obligations of any Borrower, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that if 

  
 4 












 (a) the Guarantor has made payment to the Lender Parties of all or any part
of the Obligations of any Borrower, and 
 (b) all Obligations of any Borrower have been paid in full and all Commitments
have been permanently terminated, 
 each Lender Party agrees that, at the Guarantor’s request, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lender
Parties, will execute and deliver to the Guarantor appropriate documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to the Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations of any Borrower
resulting from such payment by the Guarantor. In furtherance of the foregoing, for so long as any Obligations or Commitments remain outstanding, the Guarantor shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any Borrower (or
its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in respect of payments made under this Guaranty to any Lender Party. 

SECTION 2.7 Successors, Transferees and Assigns, etc. This Guaranty shall (a) be binding upon the Guarantor, and its successors,
transferees and assigns, and (b) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and each other Lender Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (b), any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer (in
whole or in part) any Loan held by it to any other Person or entity, and such other Person or entity shall thereupon become vested with all rights and benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender under any Loan Document (including this
Guaranty) or otherwise, subject, however, to any contrary provisions in such assignment or transfer, and to the provisions of Article IX and Section 10.4 of the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 2.8 Indemnity. If any Obligations (including obligations which would have been Obligations if they were recoverable) of any
Borrower is not recoverable from such Borrower or other Loan Party for any reason (including, without limitation, any legal limitation, disability, incapacity or thing affecting such Borrower or other Loan Party), the Guarantor shall indemnify each
Lender Party on demand and shall satisfy those obligations to the relevant Lender Party on demand. This applies whether or not: (a) any transaction relating to the Obligations of any Borrower was void or illegal or has been subsequently
avoided, or (b) any matter or fact relating to that transaction was or ought to have been within the knowledge of any Lender Party. 

SECTION 2.9 Termination of Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Guaranty shall continue in full
force and effect until the following shall occur: (i) the first time that the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness remaining outstanding under senior notes and debentures issued under the Apache Indentures is less than US$1,000,000,000
and (ii) the Guarantor has provided written notice to the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and the termination of the Guaranty.
