	If the Borrower has provided cash cover in respect of a Lender's participation in a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall seek reimbursement from that cash cover before making a demand of that Lender under Clause 7.4.2 above.

	(2)
	its obligations in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit are transferred to a New Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and

	Clause 33.32 (Permitted Deductions).

		
	33.4.5
	If giving effect to instructions given by the Majority Lenders would (in the Security Agent's opinion) have an effect equivalent to an amendment or waiver which is subject to Clause 42.2 (All Lender matters), the Security Agent shall not act in accordance with those instructions unless consent to it so acting is obtained from each Party (other than the Security Agent) whose consent would have been required in respect of that amendment or waiver.

	(C)
	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the "Sharing Payment") equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 36.6 (Partial payments).

	35.4.1

	35.4.2
	as between the relevant Obligor and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

	(A)
	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid amount owing to the Agent, the Issuing Bank (other than any amount under Clause 7.2 (Claims under a Letter of Credit) or to the extent relating to the reimbursement of a claim (as defined in Clause 7 (Letters of Credit) Clause 7.4 (Indemnities) or the Security Agent under those Finance Documents;

	No Creditor may dispute an Opex Forecast or a Capex Forecast that has been approved by each of the Technical Advisor, the PXF Facility Agent and Zenith Bank for the purposes of this Deed.

		
	6.2.3
	Upon receipt on the Zenith Collection Account of any payment of Export Proceeds during a Financial Quarter, the amount of that payment of Export Proceeds shall be distributed from the Zenith Collection Account within two Business Days in Lagos of the date of receipt in the following order of priority (notwithstanding that any default under the Zenith Finance Documents or the PXF Finance Documents may have occurred or be continuing or that any distribution under this Clause 6.2.3 may give rise to a breach of the Zenith Finance Documents or the PXF Facility Documents):

		
	(A)
	first, to the Tax and Royalties Account, to pay tax and royalties related to the Export Proceeds;

		
	(B)
	second, to the Opex Reserve Account until the amount of Export Proceeds credited to the Opex Reserve Account during that Financial Quarter equals the amount of operating expenditure and taxes set out in the Opex Forecast for that Financial Quarter for application to operating expenses (the "Opex Forecast Amount");

		
	(C)
	third, (once the amount of Export Proceeds credited to the Opex Reserve Account during that Financial Quarter equals the Opex Forecast Amount), to the Zenith Debt Service Account and the Offshore Collection Account pro rata to the ratio of (1) the Zenith Debt Service Amount to (2) the PXF Debt Service Amount, for application in respect of the Quarterly Zenith Debt Payments and the Quarterly PXF Debt Payments (respectively) for that Financial Quarter;

		
	(D)
	fourth, to the Capex Reserve Account, as set out in the Capex Forecast for that Financial Quarter for application to capital expenditure, but excluding capital expenditure financed under the PXF Facility Agreement (the "Capex Forecast Amount");

		
	(E)
	fifth, (once the amount of Export Proceeds credited to the Capex reserve Account during that Financial Quarter equals the Capex Forecast Amount),  to the Cash Sweep Account, and the Offshore Collection Account pro rata to the ratio of (1) the Zenith Debt Service Amount to (2) the PXF Debt Service Amount, for application in prepayment of amounts

	6.2.4
	If following any payment event of default on any repayment date but prior to any Acceleration Event, a partial call is made on the SBSA Guarantee and amounts are paid under the Exclusive Second Security Agreement (the "Partial SBSA Payment Amount") and there are any amounts outstanding under the Zenith Facility Agreement in respect of a corresponding repayment date under the Zenith Facility Agreement, any amount to be applied pro-rata under paragraph 6.2.3(C) above to the Offshore Collection Account shall be applied instead to the Zenith Debt Service Account up to an amount equal to the Partial SBSA Payment Amount.

		
	6.2.5
	Two Business Days prior to the last day of each Financial Quarter, the amounts distributed pursuant to Clause 6.2.3(C) to the Zenith Collection Account and the Offshore Collection Account during that Financial Quarter (the "Distributed Amounts") shall be reconciled with the Quarterly Zenith Debt Payments and the Quarterly PXF Debt Payments in order to determine whether the Distributed Amounts were sufficient to fund both the Quarterly Zenith Debt Payments and the Quarterly PXF Debt Payments in full, provided that any corresponding amount of the Partial SBSA Payment Amount credited to the Zenith Debt Service Account shall be counted for the purpose of this calculation as being a Distributed Amount credited to the Offshore Collection Account. If, pursuant to such reconciliation:

		
	(A)
	the Distributed Amounts were not sufficient to fund both the Quarterly Zenith Debt Payments and the Quarterly PXF Debt Payments in full, then a transfer shall be made from the Zenith Collection Account or the Offshore Collection Account (whichever was credited with the greater portion of the Distributed Amounts) to the Zenith Collection Account or the Offshore Collection Account (whichever was credited with the lesser portion of the Distributed Amounts), so as to ensure that each of the Offshore Collection Account and the Zenith Collection Account are credited with 50 per cent. of the Distributed Amounts during that Financial Quarter; or

		
	(B)
	the Distributed Amounts during the Financial Quarter were sufficient to fund both the Quarterly Zenith Debt Payments and the Quarterly PXF Debt Payments in full, then no transfer pursuant to Clause 6.2.5(A) shall be made.

		
	6.2.6
	For the avoidance of doubt, Zenith Bank may not transfer any amount from the Zenith Collection Account and the PXF Facility Agent may not make any prepayment in accordance with clause 6.2.3 (E) until:

Page 15 of 27

2. Purchase Price; Number of Shares. The Holder is entitled upon surrender of this Warrant with the subscription form annexed hereto duly executed, at the principal office of the Company, to purchase from the Company, at a price per share of $[●] (the “Purchase Price”), up to a maximum of [●] fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”). Until such time as this Warrant is exercised in full or expires, the Purchase Price and the securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. The person or persons in whose name or names any certificate representing shares of Common Stock is issued hereunder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares represented thereby as at the close of business on the date this Warrant is exercised with respect to such shares, whether or not the transfer books of the Company shall be closed. 
3. Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price may be paid in cash or by electronic transfer. 
4. Cashless Exercise Election. The Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of this Warrant or any portion hereof by the surrender of this Warrant or such portion to the Company, with the cashless exercise election notice annexed hereto duly executed, at the principal office of the Company. Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using the following formula: 
 
	
							
	 
	 
	X= 
	 
	Y (A-B)
	 
	 

	 
	 
	 
	A
	 
	 

 
	
					
	where:
	 
	X =
	 
	the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this Section 4.

	 
	 
	 

	 
	 
	Y =
	 
	the number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant in respect of which the cashless exercise election is made pursuant to this Section 4.

	 
	 
	 

	 
	 
	A =
	 
	the Fair Market Value (defined below) of one share of Common Stock as determined at the time the cashless exercise election is made pursuant to this Section 4.

	 
	 
	 

	 
	 
	B =
	 
	the Purchase Price in effect under this Warrant at the time the cashless exercise election is made pursuant to this Section 4.

 
“Fair Market Value” of a share of Common Stock as of the date that the cashless exercise election is made (the “Determination Date”) shall mean: 

Page 16 of 27

(a) If traded on a securities exchange or the Nasdaq National Market, the fair market value of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the closing or last reported sale prices of the Common Stock on such exchange or market over the five day period ending two trading days prior to the Determination Date; 
(b) If otherwise traded in an over-the-counter market, the fair market value of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the closing ask prices of the Common Stock over the five day period ending two trading days prior to the Determination Date; and 
(c) If there is no public market for the Common Stock, then fair market value shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. 
5. Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part, and the Holder shall be entitled to receive a new warrant, which shall be dated as of the date of this Warrant, covering the number of shares in respect of which this Warrant shall not have been exercised. 
6. Fractional Shares. In no event shall any fractional share of Common Stock be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant. If, upon exercise of this Warrant in its entirety, the Holder would, except as provided in this Section 6, be entitled to receive a fractional share of Common Stock, then the Company shall issue the next higher number of full shares of Common Stock, issuing a full share with respect to such fractional share. 
7. Expiration Date; Automatic Exercise. This Warrant shall expire (the “Expiration Date”) at the close of business on [●], 2019. 
8. Reserved Shares; Valid Issuance. The Company covenants that it will at all times from and after the date hereof reserve and keep available such number of its authorized shares of Common Stock, free from all preemptive or similar rights therein, as will be sufficient to permit the exercise of this Warrant in full. The Company further covenants that such shares as may be issued pursuant to such exercise will, upon issuance, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. 
9. Stock Splits and Dividends. If after the date hereof the Company shall subdivide the Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine the Common Stock, or issue additional shares of Common Stock in payment of a stock dividend on the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination, and the Purchase Price shall forthwith be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately increased in the case of a combination. 
11. Mergers and Reclassifications. If after the date hereof the Company shall enter into any Reorganization (as hereinafter defined), then, as a condition of such Reorganization, lawful 

Page 17 of 27

provisions shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase, at a total price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such Reorganization by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which might have been purchased by the Holder immediately prior to such Reorganization, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation, provisions for the adjustment of the Purchase Price and the number of shares issuable hereunder and the provisions relating to the cashless exercise election) shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any shares of stock or other securities and property thereafter deliverable upon exercise hereof. For the purposes of this Section 11, the term “Reorganization” shall include without limitation any reclassification, capital reorganization or change of the Common Stock (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in Section 9 hereof), or any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation or other business organization (other than a merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock), or any sale or conveyance to another corporation or other business organization of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. 
12. Certificate of Adjustment. Whenever the Purchase Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate of the Company’s chief financial officer setting forth the Purchase Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. 
13. Notices of Record Date, Etc. In the event of: 
(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase, sell or otherwise acquire or dispose of any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right; 
(b) any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, capital reorganization of the Company, consolidation or merger involving the Company, or sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of its assets; or 
(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, then in each such event the Company will provide or cause to be provided to the Holder a written notice thereof. Such notice shall be provided at least twenty (20) days prior to the date specified in such notice on which any such action is to be taken.

15. Amendment. The terms and provisions of this Warrant may be amended, modified or waived only by a written instrument duly executed by the Company and the Holder. 
16. Representations and Covenants of the Holder. This Common Stock Purchase Warrant has been entered into by the Company in reliance upon the following representations and covenants of the Holder, which by its execution hereof the Holder hereby confirms: 
(a) Investment Purpose. The right to acquire Common Stock contained herein will be acquired for investment and not with a view to the sale or distribution of any part thereof, and the 

Page 19 of 27

Holder has no present intention of selling or engaging in any public distribution of the same except pursuant to a registration or exemption. 
(b) Accredited Investor. The Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and/or is not a “US Person” within the meaning of Regulation S promulgated under the Act. 
(c) Private Issue. The Holder understands (i) that the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Holder’s rights contained herein is not registered under the 1933 Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws on the grounds that the issuance contemplated by this Warrant will be exempt from the registration and qualification requirements thereof, and (ii) that the Company’s reliance on such exemption is predicated on the representations set forth in this Section 16. 
(d) Financial Risk. The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business affairs as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment. The Holder has not relied upon any representations, warranties or agreements by the Company or any of its affiliates, other than those expressly set forth in this Common Stock Purchase Warrant. The Holder acknowledges that an investment in the Company is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. The Holder is able to bear the economic risk of holding its investment for an indefinite period of time and can afford to suffer a complete loss of its investment. The Holder is not relying on the Company or any of its representatives for legal, investment, tax or other advice. 
(e) Stockholder Rights. Unless otherwise specified herein or in another agreement between the Company and Holder, until exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not have or exercise any rights by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company. 
17. Notices, Transfers, Etc.
(a) Any notice or written communication required or permitted to be given to the Holder may be given by certified mail or delivered to the Holder at the address most recently provided by the Holder to the Company. 
(b) Subject to compliance with Section 18 below and the applicable federal and state securities laws, this Warrant may be transferred by the Holder with respect to any or all of the shares purchasable hereunder. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company, together with the assignment notice annexed hereto duly executed, for transfer of this Warrant as an entirety by the Holder, the Company shall issue a new warrant of the same denomination to the assignee. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company, together with the assignment hereof properly endorsed, by the Holder for transfer with respect to a portion of the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder, the Company shall issue a new warrant to the assignee, in such denomination as shall be requested by 

Page 20 of 27

the Holder hereof, and shall issue to such Holder a new warrant covering the number of shares in respect of which this Warrant shall not have been transferred. 
(c) In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue a new warrant of like tenor and denomination and deliver the same (i) in exchange and substitution for and upon surrender and cancellation of any mutilated Warrant, or (ii) in lieu of any Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, upon receipt of an affidavit of the Holder or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant. 
18. Transfer of Shares.
(a) “Restricted Shares” means (a) this Warrant, (b) the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, and (c) any other shares of capital stock of the Company issued in respect of such shares (as a result of stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications, recapitalizations or similar events); provided, however, that shares of Common Stock which are Restricted Shares shall cease to be Restricted Shares (x) upon any sale pursuant to a registration statement under the 1933 Act, Section 4(1) of the 1933 Act or Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or (y) at such time as they become eligible for sale under Rule 144 under the 1933 Act. 
(b) Restricted Shares shall not be sold or transferred unless either (i) they first shall have been registered under the 1933 Act, or (ii) the Company first shall have been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company if requested by the Company or its transfer agent, to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. 
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no registration or opinion of counsel shall be required for (i) a transfer by the Holder to an Affiliated Party (as such term is defined below) of the Holder, (ii) a transfer by the Holder which is a partnership to a partner of such partnership; provided that the transferee in each case agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 19 to the same extent as if it were the original Holder hereunder, or (iii) a transfer made in accordance with Rule 144 under the 1933 Act. For purposes of this Agreement “Affiliated Party” shall mean, with respect to Holder, any person or entity which, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Holder, including, without limitation, any general partner, officer, manager or director of Holder and any venture capital fund now or hereafter existing which is controlled by one or more general partners or managing members of, or shares the same management company as, Holder. 
(d) Each certificate representing Restricted Shares shall bear a legend substantially in the following form: 
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY 

Page 21 of 27

NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL SUCH SHARES ARE REGISTERED UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY IS OBTAINED TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.” 
The foregoing legend shall be removed from the certificates representing any Restricted Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as they become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act. 
(e) The Holder shall have certain registration rights with respect to the Common Stock issued or issuable hereunder.  The registration rights will be defined in a registration rights agreement, substantially in the form of the registration rights agreement between the Holder and the Maker dated February 21, 2014.
19. No Impairment. The Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Holder by amendment of its Articles or through any reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance of assets, dissolution, liquidation, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance of performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder. 
20. Governing Law. The provisions and terms of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware. 
21. Successors and Assigns. This Warrant shall be binding upon the Company’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Holder’s successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. 
22. Business Days. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action required of the expiration of any rights granted herein shall be a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday in California, then such action may be taken or right may be exercised on the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday or Sunday or such a legal holiday.
