May 3, 2016 9.3 Severability: In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement should for any reason be held by any court or authority having jurisdiction over this Agreement, or over any of the parties hereto to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision or provisions shall be reformed to approximate as nearly as possible the intent of the parties, and if unreformable, shall be divisible and deleted in such jurisdictions; elsewhere, this Agreement shall not be affected. 9.4 Use of Name: The Company shall not use the name of The Johns Hopkins University or The Johns Hopkins Health System or any of its constituent parts, such as the Johns Hopkins Hospital or any contraction thereof or the name of Inventors in any advertising, promotional, sales literature or fundraising documents without prior written consent from an authorized representative of JHU. Company shall allow at least seven (7) business days notice of any proposed public disclosure for JHU's review and comment or to provide written consent. 9.5 Duties of the Parties: JHU is not a commercial organization. It is an institute of research and education.

The obligation of the Company to defend and indemnify as set out in this Paragraph 9.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall not be limited by any other limitation of liability elsewhere in the Agreement. 9.8 Product Liability: Prior to first commercial sale of any LICENSED PRODUCT(S) or LICENSED SERVICE(S) as the case may be in any particular country, Company shall establish and maintain, in each country in which Company shall sell LICENSED PRODUCT(S) or LICENSED SERVICE(S), product liability or other appropriate insurance coverage appropriate to the risks involved in marketing LICENSED PRODUCT(S) and/or LICENSED SERVICE(S) and will annually present evidence to JHU that such coverage is being maintained. Upon JHU's request, Company will furnish JHU with a Certificate of Insurance of each product liability insurance policy obtained. JHU shall be listed as an additional insured in Company's said insurance policies. If such Product Liability insurance is underwritten on a 'claims made' basis, Company agrees that any change in underwriters during the term of this Agreement will require the purchase of 'prior acts' coverage to ensure that coverage will be continuous throughout the term of this Agreement. 9.9 Entire Agreement: This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the obligations of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces all prior agreements, understandings, writings, and discussions between the parties relating to said subject matter.

Article IV. Nominations, Confirmations and Imbalances

Nominations. Each Month during the Term, Customer shall give written notice of Customer's nomination to Transporter specifying the average daily quantity of Customer Gas Customer requests be transported during such Month and designate a person who will be responsible for coordinating notices among Customer, Transporter and Third Party Operators in accordance with these procedures. Customer shall furnish such nomination to Transporter by email or other electronic means and such nomination shall specify such information as is necessary in order to perform the Services requested by Customer. If Customer anticipates any material revision to a Monthly nomination it has provided to Transporter, Customer will notify Transporter as promptly as possible. Transporter will transport hereunder as nearly as practicable at uniform hourly and Daily rates of flow unless otherwise mutually agreed by Customer and Transporter.

Unless otherwise mutually agreed by Customer and Transporter, for Customer's initial nomination to be accepted for the first (1st) Day of any Month, Customer's nomination must be received by Transporter by 11:30 a.m. Central Clock Time on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the last Day of the Month preceding such Month. Customer shall have the right to submit a new nomination or revise its existing nomination for any Day during such Month provided such nomination is received by Transporter prior to 11:30 a.m. Central Clock Time on the Business Day prior to the Day such new or revised nomination is requested to commence. Customer nominations received by Transporter after 11:30 a.m. Central Clock Time on the Business Day prior to the Day such new or revised service is requested to commence, or intraday nominations   7

Source: PENNTEX MIDSTREAM PARTNERS, LP, S-1/A, 4/16/2015





for Gas flowing the same Day, may be accepted by Transporter, in its sole discretion. Such new or revised nomination shall specify Customer's anticipated service requirements for the remainder of the applicable Month.

If Customer is advised by a Third Party Operator to reduce or suspend deliveries of Customer Gas to the Transportation System, Customer shall immediately notify Transporter orally of such reduction or suspension, and shall confirm such notification in writing, and adjust its nominations in order to maintain a balanced position to the extent possible.

Confirmations. All nominations of Customer Gas shall be scheduled and implemented by Transporter on a prospective basis and only to the extent Transporter is able to confirm the receipt and delivery of such Gas with the operator(s) of the Point(s) of Delivery. If a conflict arises between Customer's new or revised nomination and an operator's confirmation, Customer understands and agrees such operator's confirmation shall control. If Customer submits a new or revised nomination to Transporter, Transporter will confirm the scheduled quantity to Customer by 3:00 Central Clock Time on the Business Day prior to the Day such new or revised nomination is requested to commence, except for intraday nominations for Gas flowing the same Day, which Transporter will confirm as soon as reasonably practicable.

Commingling. Although Customer shall retain title to Customer Gas delivered to Transporter hereunder, Customer Gas shall constitute part of the supply of Gas from all sources, and as such, Transporter shall, subject to its obligation to deliver Equivalent Quantities each Day, have the right to commingle Customer Gas with Gas of other customers. Transporter shall allocate Customer's pro rata share of each NGL Component contained in any commingled stream of Gas at any Point(s) of Delivery based on the GPMs of each NGL Component contained in Customer's Gas as measured by chromatograph or other method acceptable in the industry at the Point(s) of Receipt.

Imbalances. The term Imbalance means the cumulative difference in a Month between: (i) the quantity of Gas in MMBtu received for the account of Customer at the Point(s) of Receipt, less Customer's System Fuel & LUAF quantity, as applicable, and (ii) the quantity of Gas in MMBtu delivered for the account of Customer at the Point(s) of Delivery. After any adjustment for System Fuel & LUAF, if the Imbalance is the result of receipts at the Point(s) of Receipt exceeding the delivered (or scheduled, as applicable) quantity of Gas for Customer's account at the Point(s) of Delivery, it is a Positive Imbalance. If the Imbalance is a result of receipts at the Point(s) of Receipt being lower than the delivered quantity of Gas for Customer's account at the Point(s) of Delivery, it is a Negative Imbalance. Imbalances will be cashed out on a Monthly basis.   8

Source: PENNTEX MIDSTREAM PARTNERS, LP, S-1/A, 4/16/2015





Cash Out. The cash-out settlement price will be the monthly arithmetical average of the prices (Cash-out Price) as posted in Gas Daily's Daily Price Survey during the Month under the heading Texas Gas Transmission Corp., under the column labeled Index corresponding to the row labeled Zone 1. Transporter will pay Customer an amount that is the product of the Positive Imbalance each Month, if any, and the Cash-out Price. Customer will pay Transporter an amount that is the product of the Negative Imbalance each Month, if any, and the Cash-out Price. If the actual monthly volume varies by more than five percent (5%) from the delivered volumes for the Month, then the Cash-out Price will be adjusted as follows:



1. For Negative Imbalances, the Cash-out Price will be increased by the percentage variance, rounded up to the nearest whole percentage point, between the Point(s) of Delivery volumes and the adjusted Point(s) of Receipt volumes. (i.e., if the adjusted receipt volume from Customer is 7% less than the Point(s) of Delivery volume, then the Index Price will be increased by 7%), however in no event shall the Cash-Out Price be increased more than 10%; and



2. For Positive Imbalances, the Cash-out Price will be decreased by the percentage variance, rounded up to the nearest whole percentage point, between the Point(s) of Delivery volumes and the adjusted Point(s) of Receipt volumes. (i.e., if the adjusted receipt volume from Customer is 7% greater than the Point(s) of Delivery volume, then the Index Price will be increased by 7%), however in no event shall the Cash-Out Price be increased more than 10%.

Article V. Curtailment

If the quantity of Customer Gas and all other Gas available for delivery into the Transportation System exceeds the capacity of the Transportation System at any point, then Transporter shall interrupt or curtail receipts of Customer Gas with respect to the affected point(s) only in accordance with the following:

(a) First, Transporter shall curtail all Interruptible Service Gas prior to curtailing Firm Service Gas. In the event Transporter curtails some, but not all, Interruptible Service Gas on a particular Day, Transporter shall allocate the capacity of the Transportation System available for Interruptible Service Gas at the affected points on a pro rata basis based upon Customer's last confirmed nomination of Interruptible Service Gas hereunder and the last confirmed nominations of Interruptible Service Gas from all other shippers on the Transportation System prior to the event causing the curtailment.

(b) Second, if additional curtailments are required beyond those described in the immediately preceding clause (a), Transporter shall curtail Firm Service Gas. In the event Transporter curtails some, but not all, Firm Service Gas on a particular Day, Transporter shall allocate the capacity of the Transportation System at the affected point(s) on a pro rata basis based upon Customer's last confirmed nomination of Firm Service Gas hereunder and the last confirmed nominations of Firm Service Gas from all other shippers on the Transportation System prior to the event causing the curtailment.

Transporter shall provide Customer notice of any interruption or curtailment of the receipt of Customer Gas into the Transportation System as is reasonable under the circumstances.

Article VI. Measurement & Testing

The construction, ownership, installation, operation and maintenance of each Measurement Facility that is owned by a Person other than Transporter shall be governed by an interconnect agreement between Transporter and such Person. Each other Measurement Facility shall be constructed, installed, owned, operated and maintained by Transporter.   9

In the event Transporter or Customer is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by reason of force majeure to carry out its obligations under this Agreement (other than the obligation to make payment of amounts due hereunder, including without limitation, payment of fees due hereunder), it is agreed that such Party shall give notice and reasonably full particulars of such force majeure, in writing, or other electronic means to the other Party within a reasonable time after the occurrence of the cause relied on, and the obligations of the Party giving such notice, so far as they are affected by such force majeure, shall be suspended during the continuance of any inability so caused, but for no longer period, and such cause shall, so far as possible, be remedied with all reasonable dispatch.

It is understood and agreed that the settlement of strikes or lockouts shall be entirely within the discretion of the Party having the difficulty, and that the above requirement that any force majeure shall be remedied with all reasonable dispatch shall not require the settlement of strikes or lockouts by acceding to the demands of the opposing party when such course is inadvisable in the discretion of the Party having the difficulty.   12

Article XII. Taxes and Surcharges

Customer shall pay, or cause to be paid, all production, severance, gross receipts, ad valorem, and similar Taxes, and all surcharges, levied or imposed on it by any Governmental Authority with respect to Customer Gas. In the event Transporter is required to pay or remit any such Tax or surcharge owed by Customer as a result of Customer Gas being transported on the Transportation System, Customer shall reimburse Transporter for such Tax or surcharge pursuant to Transporter's invoice for the same. Customer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Transporter from and against any and all claims and losses arising out of or related to such Taxes or surcharges. This indemnity and defense obligation shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR OTHER BUSINESS INTERRUPTION DAMAGES, BY STATUTE, IN TORT OR CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS LIMITATION SHALL NOT LIMIT A PARTY'S RIGHT TO RECOVERY HEREUNDER FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES TO THE EXTENT SUCH PARTY IS REQUIRED TO PAY SUCH DAMAGES TO A THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH A MATTER FOR WHICH SUCH PARTY IS OTHERWISE ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION HEREUNDER.

Article XIV. Creditworthiness

If Customer has failed to pay any amount when due under this Agreement and if such non-payment is not being disputed in good faith by Customer, Transporter shall have the right to request and receive from Customer adequate assurance of performance (Performance Assurance) which shall mean credit support in a form reasonably acceptable to Transporter and in an amount and for the term reasonably acceptable to Transporter. Any of the following shall be an acceptable form of credit support:

(a) An irrevocable standby letter of credit from a bank satisfactory to Transporter;

(b) Provide a prepayment or a deposit in advance of the Month in which Services hereunder are to be provided; or

(c) A performance bond issued by a Person satisfactory to Transporter.

If the credit of Customer's guarantor is satisfactory in Transporter's opinion, a demand for Performance Assurance can be satisfied with a guarantee issued on behalf of Customer in a form acceptable to Transporter, but only for as long as the credit of Customer's guarantor continues to be acceptable to Transporter. Transporter acknowledges and agrees that Memorial Resource Development Corp. is a satisfactory guarantor.

Should Customer or its guarantor fail to provide Performance Assurance within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of written demand for such assurance, then Transporter shall have the right to suspend performance under this Agreement until such time as Customer furnishes Performance Assurance. For the avoidance of doubt, such suspension of performance by Transporter shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to make payments of amounts due hereunder, including, without limitation, payment of fees due hereunder.   14

If during the Term, if Transporter has failed to pay any amount when due under this Agreement and if such non-payment is not being disputed in good faith by Transporter, Customer shall have the right to request and receive from Transporter adequate Performance Assurance under similar terms and conditions as described above, including the right to suspend performance under this Agreement until such time as Transporter furnishes Performance Assurance.
