NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained and other good and valuation

 SECTION 1. 2018

SECTION 3. Representation and Warranties. 

To induce the Lenders party hereto and the 2018 Incremental Lenders to enter into this Amendment, each of the Borrower and Parent represents
and warrants that, as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date: 
 (a) Organization; Powers. Each of the Loan
Parties is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority, and has all material governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals
necessary, to own its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where failure to have such power, authority,
licenses, authorizations, consents, approvals and qualifications could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) Authority; Enforceability. This Amendment is within the Loan Parties’ respective limited partnership or limited
liability company powers and has been duly authorized by all necessary limited partnership or limited liability company and, if required, equityholder action (including, without limitation, any action required to be taken by any class of directors
of the Borrower or any other Person, whether interested or disinterested, in order to ensure the due authorization of this Amendment). This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable Debtor Relief Laws and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

(c) Approvals; No Conflicts. This Amendment (a) does not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing
with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any other third Person (including equityholders, members, partners or any class of directors or managers, whether interested or disinterested, of the Borrower or any other Person), nor is
any such 

 
consent, approval, registration, filing or other action necessary for the validity or enforceability of this Amendment or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, except those
third party approvals or consents which, if not made or obtained, would not cause a Default hereunder, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and would not have an adverse effect on the enforceability of this Amendment,
(b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the Organizational Documents of any Loan Party or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture or other material agreement
binding upon any Loan Party or its Properties, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Loan Party and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any material Property of any Loan Party
(other than the Liens created by the Loan Documents). 
 (d) No Defaults. No Default has occurred and is continuing.

 (e) Use of Loans. The proceeds of the 2018 Incremental Loans shall be only for the purposes specified in
Section 9.09 of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Loan Parties are not engaged principally, or as one of its or their important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of
buying or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Board). No part of the proceeds of any 2018 Incremental Loan will be used whether on or following the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date for any purpose which
violates the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board. 
 (f) Solvency. After giving effect to this Amendment,
(a) the aggregate assets (after giving effect to amounts that could reasonably be received by reason of indemnity, offset, insurance or any similar arrangement), at a fair valuation, of each Loan Party will exceed the aggregate Debt of such
Loan Party, as the Debt becomes absolute and matures, (b) each of the Loan Parties will not have incurred or intended to incur, and will not believe that it will incur, Debt beyond its ability to pay such Debt (after taking into account the
timing and amounts of cash to be received by each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of its liabilities, and giving effect to amounts that could reasonably be received by reason of indemnity,
offset, insurance or any similar arrangement) as such Debt becomes absolute and matures and (c) each of the Loan Parties will not have (and will have no reason to believe that it will have thereafter) unreasonably small capital for the conduct
of its business. 
 (g) Loan Document Representations. Each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan
Party in or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects, in each case on and as of such date as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate to an earlier
date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse
Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects).

 SECTION 6. Joinder of New Lenders. Each 2018 Incremental Lender that is not a
Lender immediately prior to giving effect to this Amendment No. 1 (each a “New Lender”) hereby joins in, becomes a party to, and agrees to comply with and be bound by the terms and conditions of the Amended Credit Agreement as
a Lender thereunder and under each and every other Loan Document to which any Lender is required to be bound by the Amended Credit Agreement, to the same extent as if such New Lender were an original signatory to the Credit Agreement. Each New
Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Amended Credit Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each New Lender represents and warrants that (a) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Amendment,

of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 8.01 thereof, and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Amendment and to become a Lender on the basis of which it has made such analysis and decision independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and (c) from and after the Amendment
No. 1 Effective Date, it shall be a party to and be bound by the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder. 

SECTION 7. Validity of Obligations and Liens 

(a) Validity of Obligations. Each of Parent, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that,
both before and after giving effect to this Amendment, each of Parent, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor is, jointly and severally, indebted to the Lenders and the other Secured Parties for the obligations under the Loan Documents, without
defense, counterclaim or offset of any kind and each of Parent, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby ratifies and reaffirms the validity, enforceability and binding nature of such obligations both before and after giving effect to this
Amendment. 
 (b) Validity of Liens and Loan Documents. Each of Parent, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor
hereby ratifies and reaffirms the validity and enforceability of the Liens and security interests granted by such Loan Party to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the Indebtedness (including after giving effect
to the Amended Credit Agreement and the making of the 2018 Incremental Loans) pursuant to the Loan Documents and hereby confirms and agrees that notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement and the making of
the 2018 Incremental Loans, and except as expressly amended by this Amendment or pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, each such Loan Document is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and each is hereby ratified and confirmed in
all respects. 
 (c) No Waiver. Except as expressly contemplated hereby, the terms, provisions, conditions and
covenants of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly set forth in
this Amendment, operate as a waiver of, consent to or amendment of any term, provision, condition or covenant thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except pursuant hereto or as expressly contemplated or amended hereby, nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to (a) constitute a waiver of compliance or consent to noncompliance by the Borrower with respect to any term, provision, condition or covenant of the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document;
(b) prejudice any right or remedy that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (c) constitute a waiver of
compliance or consent to noncompliance by the Borrower with respect to the terms, provisions, conditions and covenants of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents made the subject hereof. The Borrower represents and acknowledges
that it has no claims, counterclaims, offsets, credits or defenses to the Loan Documents or the performance of its obligations thereunder 

SECTION 8. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Entire Agreement. This Amendment, the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire
agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and verbal, among the parties or any of them with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

 (b) References to Credit Agreement. On and after the Amendment No. 1
Effective Date, each reference in the Loan Documents to the “Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” (and each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder” or
“hereof”) or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement. 
 (c)
GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

(d) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES THAT SECTION 12.09 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT (OR, AFTER
GIVING EFFECT TO THE AMENDMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, THE AMENDED CREDIT AGREEMENT) SHALL APPLY TO THIS AMENDMENT MUTATIS MUTANDIS. 

(e) Severability. Any provision of this Amendment held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a
particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 (f)
Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.
Delivery of an executed signature page to this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic transmission (including portable document format (“.pdf”) or similar format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart
hereof. 
 (g) Loan Document. This Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document” as defined in the Credit
Agreement. 
 (h) No Novation. This Amendment shall not extinguish the obligations for the payment of money
outstanding under the Credit Agreement or discharge or release the priority of any Loan Document or any other security therefor. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the obligations outstanding under the
Credit Agreement or the instruments, documents and agreements securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect. Nothing in this Amendment shall be construed as a release or other discharge of Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan
Party from any of its obligations and liabilities under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

 (c) To request the Borrowing of
2018 Incremental Loans on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Borrowing Request Notice prior to 10:00 a.m. (Central Time) two (2) Business Days (or such shorter period
as may be approved by the 2018 Incremental Lenders) before the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date. 
 (d) Upon receipt of a Borrowing
Request Notice described in Section 2.02(a), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the receipt thereof, and such Borrowing Request Notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower (except as
otherwise set forth in that certain Funding Indemnification Letter agreement, dated as of November 7, 2017, among Vista Sand, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent). 

(e) Upon receipt of an Incremental Borrowing Request Notice described in Section 2.02(b), the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender of the receipt thereof, and such Incremental Borrowing Request Notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower. 

(f) Upon receipt of a Borrowing Request Notice for 2018 Incremental Loans described in Section 2.02(c), the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each 2018 Incremental Lender of the receipt thereof, and such Borrowing Request Notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower. 

  
 31 

 (g) Not later than (i) in the case of the Borrowing of New Loans, 12:00 noon (Central time)
on the Effective Date, each Lender shall make available a Loan in the amount of its New Commitment, (ii) in the case of a Borrowing of Incremental Loans, 12:00 noon (Central time) on the date of such Borrowing, each Incremental Lender shall
make available the amount of its requested Incremental Loan or (iii) in the case of the Borrowing of 2018 Incremental Loans, 12:00 noon (Central time) on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, each 2018 Incremental Lender shall make available
a Loan in the amount of its 2018 Incremental Commitment, in each case in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address set forth herein. Unless Administrative Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in
(i) Section 6.02, (ii) in the case of a Borrowing of Incremental Loans, Section 6.03 or (iii) in the case of the Borrowing of 2018 Incremental Loans, Amendment No. 1 has not been satisfied,
Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the applicable Lenders available to the Borrower at Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address. 

(h) In the event that any Lender fails to fund its share of any Incremental Loan required to be funded by such Lender hereunder (any such
unfunded amount, such Lender’s “Unfunded Incremental Loan Amount”), the Administrative Agent will fund, or will cause one or more other Lenders that are Affiliates of the Administrative Agent to fund, within five
(5) Business Days after the requested Borrowing Date, the Unfunded Incremental Loan Amount of such Lender. Thereafter, the portion of the Unfunded Incremental Loan Amount funded by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall constitute a
Loan owing to the Administrative Agent or such other Lender. 
 Section 2.03. Notes. The Existing Loan of each Lender has been
evidenced by a Note payable to the order of such Lender in the amount of such Existing Loan. Upon the request of any Lender, the Loans of such Lender shall be evidenced by a Note payable to such Lender. 

Section 2.04. Interest Rates; Payments. 

(a) The principal amount of the Loans outstanding from day to day shall bear interest (computed on the basis of actual days elapsed in a 365 or
366 day year, as applicable) at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (x) the sum of the LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin and (y) the Highest Lawful Rate, payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Maturity
Date. On each Quarterly Payment Date, (i) all accrued interest other than PIK Interest shall be paid in cash and (ii) accrued interest equal to the PIK Interest Amount shall be paid in kind. All PIK Interest will be capitalized by
increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on the relevant Quarterly Payment Date by the PIK Interest Amount payable on such date (including, with respect to the first Quarterly Payment Date after the Effective Date, accrued and unpaid
PIK Interest on the Existing Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on the Effective Date). Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes hereof, references to the “outstanding principal amount” or the
“principal amount outstanding” of the Loans includes any PIK Interest so capitalized and added to the principal amount of the Loans from the date on which such interest has been so added. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
subsection, however, without the consent of the Required Lenders, during the continuance of an Event of Default all interest must be paid in cash. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.04(a), upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Indebtedness (whether or not accelerated) shall bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, whether or not allowed in such a proceeding), at a rate per annum
equal to the lesser of (i) the sum of (A) the rate provided for in Section 2.04(a) plus (B) 2.0% per annum and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate. 

  
 32 

 
Interest payable as provided in this Section shall be payable in cash from time to time on demand. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section is
not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the rate of interest calculated hereunder (as used in this
sub-section, the “contract rate”) is limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, any subsequent reductions in the contract rate shall not reduce the rate of interest on the Loans below the Highest Lawful
Rate until the total amount of interest accrued equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if the contract rate had at all times been in effect. In the event that at maturity (stated or by acceleration), or at final payment of any Loan,
the total amount of interest paid or accrued on such Loan is less than the amount of interest which would have accrued if the contract rate had at all times been in effect with respect thereto, then at such time, to the extent permitted by Law, the
Borrower shall pay to the holder of such Loan an amount equal to the difference between (i) the lesser of the amount of interest which would have accrued if the contract rate had at all times been in effect and the amount of interest which
would have accrued if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect, and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid on such Loan. 

Section 2.05. Mandatory Termination of Commitments; Maturity. 

(a) The New Commitment of each Lender shall terminate immediately after the funding of its New Loan on the Effective Date. The Incremental
Commitment of each Lender shall terminate on the Incremental Commitment Expiration Date; provided that, on the date of each Borrowing of Incremental Loans, the portion of the Incremental Commitments being funded pursuant to such Borrowing
shall terminate immediately after the funding of such Incremental Loans. The 2018 Incremental Commitment of each 2018 Incremental Lender shall terminate immediately after the funding of its 2018 Incremental Loan on the Amendment No. 1 Effective
Date. 
 (b) The outstanding principal balance of the Loans, all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Indebtedness shall be due
and payable in full on the Maturity Date. 
 Section 2.06. Application of Payments. 

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all fees payable by the Borrower hereunder not later
than 12:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the date when due, in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address set forth herein. Administrative Agent will promptly (and if such payment is received by Administrative Agent by
12:00 p.m. (Eastern time), and otherwise if reasonably possible, on the same Business Day) distribute to each Lender its proportionate share or, in the case of any fee, other appropriate share of each such payment received by Administrative
Agent for the account of Lenders. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If the date for
any payment of principal is extended by operation of Law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. All amounts payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents (whether principal, interest, fees, expenses, or otherwise)
shall be paid in full, without set-off or counterclaim. Amounts repaid on account of the Loans may not be reborrowed. 

(b) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, all principal payments received by Lenders with respect to the Loans shall be applied to
the Loans of each Lender ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof. 

  
 33 

 (c) After the occurrence of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by
Administrative Agent or any Lender from any Loan Party or in respect of any of the assets of any Loan Party shall be applied in the following order: 

(i) first, to the payment of all fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent
(including fees, expenses, and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent) and all amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 12.03; 

(ii) second, to the payment of all fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal and interest)
payable to Lenders (including fees, expenses, and disbursements of counsel to Lenders) ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause second payable to them; 

(iii) third, to the reimbursement of any advances made by Lenders to effect performance of any unperformed covenants of
any Loan Party under any of the Loan Documents; 
 (iv) fourth, to (A) accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans
and (B) unpaid principal of the Loans, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause fourth payable to them; and 

(v) last, the balance, if any, after all of the Indebtedness has been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as
otherwise required by Law. 
 Section 2.07. [Reserved]. 

Section 2.08. OID. The Borrower and the Lenders intend that (i) the Loans are debt for federal income Tax purposes,
(ii) the Notes issued to the Lenders constitute a single debt instrument for purposes of Sections 1271 through 1275 of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-2(c)), (iii) such debt instrument shall be treated as issued with original issue discount (“OID”), (iv) to the extent permissible and in accordance with
applicable law, such debt instrument shall be treated as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1272-1(d) and therefore treated as governed by the rules set out in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1272-1(d),, and not treated as governed by the rules set out in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4, (v) any calculation by the Borrower regarding
the amount of OID for any accrual period on the Loan shall be subject to the review and comment of the Administrative Agent, and (vi) the Borrower and the Lenders agree not to take any action or file any Tax return, report or declaration
inconsistent with this Section 2.08 (including with respect to the amount of OID on the Loan as determined in accordance with the preceding clause (v)). The inclusion of this Section 2.08 is
not an admission by any Lender that it is subject to United States taxation. 
 Section 2.09. Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining
whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.02); provided that, except as otherwise provided in
Section 12.02, this Section 2.09 shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender
directly affected thereby.

 ARTICLE III 

REPAYMENTS; PREPAYMENTS 

Section 3.01. Repayment of Indebtedness. 

(a) Quarterly Repayments. On each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the Quarterly Payment Date on March 1, 2019 and ending on
the last Quarterly Payment Date before the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay the principal of the Loans in an amount equal to: 

(i) for each Quarterly Payment Date during the period from and including March 1, 2019 to and including March 1,
2020, 1.75% of the Total Loan Amount; and 
 (ii) for each Quarterly Payment Date thereafter, 2.5% of the Total Loan Amount.

 (b) Excess Cash Flow Prepayments. 

(i) On the second Quarterly Payment Date of each fiscal year commencing with the Quarterly Payment Date on June 1, 2020,
the Borrower shall offer to prepay the Loans in accordance with this Section 3.01(b) in an amount equal to 50% of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for the most recently ended fiscal year. 

(ii) In connection with any offer to make a prepayment required by clause (i) above, the Borrower shall provide prior
written or telephonic notice thereof, in each case given to the Administrative Agent on the applicable Quarterly Payment Date. Each such notice shall include the calculation of the amount of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow giving rise to the
prepayment offer and the amount that is available to prepay the Loans. In the event that the Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual amount of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow exceeded the amount set forth in such notice, the Borrower
shall promptly make an additional offer to prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess, and the Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to the Administrative Agent a notice of offer to make such prepayment demonstrating the calculation
of such excess. 
 (iii) Each Lender, in its sole discretion, may, but is not obligated to, decline the Borrower’s offer
to make any prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.01(b), in each case, with respect to such Lender’s pro rata share of such prepayment. Promptly after the date of receipt of the notice required by clause (ii) of
this Section 3.01(b), the Administrative Agent shall provide written notice (the “First Offer”) to the Lenders of the amount available to prepay the Loans within one (1) Business Day of receipt
of the applicable notice. Any Lender declining such prepayment (a “Declining Lender”) shall give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent by 10:00 a.m. (Central time) no later than five (5) Business Days after
the date of such notice from the Administrative Agent (the “First Offer Deadline”) and on such date the Administrative Agent shall provide notice to the Borrower of the aggregate amount accepted for prepayment pursuant to the
First Offer. The Borrower shall prepay the Loans accepted for prepayment pursuant to the First Offer no later than the date specified for such prepayment in the First Offer in the amount set forth in the applicable notice from the Administrative
Agent. Additionally, on the First Offer Deadline (or earlier if the Administrative Agent has received responses from all Lenders) the Administrative Agent shall then provide written notice (the “Second Offer”) to the Lenders
other than the Declining Lenders (such Lenders being the “Accepting Lenders”) of the additional amount available (due to such Declining Lenders’ declining such prepayment) to prepay Loans owing to such Accepting Lenders,
such available amount to be allocated on a pro 

  
 35 

 
rata basis among the Accepting Lenders that accept the Second Offer. Any Lenders declining prepayment pursuant to such Second Offer shall give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent
by 10:00 a.m. (Central time) no later than five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice of a Second Offer. The Borrower shall prepay the Loans accepted for prepayment pursuant to the Second Offer within one Business Day after its
receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of the aggregate amount of such prepayment. Amounts remaining after the allocation of accepted amounts with respect to the First Offer and the Second Offer to Accepting Lenders shall be retained by the
Borrower. 
 (c) If any principal or interest amount payable on the Loans remains outstanding at the Maturity Date, such amount shall be paid
in full by the Borrower to the Lenders in immediately available funds on the Maturity Date. 
 Section 3.02. Mandatory
Prepayments. 
 (a) Unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree, if (i) any Debt (excluding any Debt permitted pursuant to
Section 9.03) shall be incurred by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (ii) any Asset Sale shall occur, then within five (5) Business Days after the date of such incurrence or Asset Sale, the Borrower shall prepay
the principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the Net Cash Proceeds of such incurrence or Asset Sale; provided, however, that, upon written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not less than
five (5) Business Days after the date of receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds, such proceeds may be retained by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (and be excluded from the prepayment requirements of this clause) if (w) the Borrower informs the
Administrative Agent in such notice of its good faith intention to apply (or cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to apply) such Net Cash Proceeds to the acquisition of other Property or, in the case of Net Cash Proceeds as a result of a Recovery
Event, to use such Net Cash Proceeds to repair the affected assets of Borrower or any Subsidiary, (x) within 180 days following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, such proceeds are either applied to such acquisition or repair or the
Borrower or a Loan Party has entered into a bona fide binding contract not prohibited by this Agreement committing to make the acquisition or repair with a Person other than a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party and such Net Cash Proceeds
are subsequently applied in accordance with such contract within ninety (90) days after the date such agreement is entered into, (y) if such proceeds are not applied to such acquisition or repair in accordance with the foregoing, the
Borrower shall prepay the principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds not so applied and (z) in the case of Net Cash Proceeds received as a result of an Asset Sale, such proceeds being applied or committed to
an acquisition do not exceed $5,000,000 during any period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months. The provisions of this Section 3.02(a) do not constitute a consent to the incurrence of any Debt or any Asset Sale
not otherwise permitted by the terms hereof. 
 (b) Unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree, if on any date any Loan Party shall
receive a Purchase Price Refund which yields aggregate proceeds to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in excess of $3,000,000, then, not less than five (5) Business Days after the date of receipt by such Person of such Purchase Price
Refund, the Borrower shall prepay the principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such Purchase Price Refund. The provisions of this Section 3.02 do not constitute a consent to the consummation of any
disposition of Property or series of related dispositions of Property not permitted by the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans. 

  
 36 

 (d) Each prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be
applied in accordance with Section 2.06 and shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest to the Prepayment Date on the principal amount prepaid. 

Section 3.03. Voluntary Prepayments. 

(a) The Borrower may, subject to Section 3.03(b) and the other provisions of this Agreement, upon not less than
fifteen (15) Business Days’ advance notice (or such shorter period as may be approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify each Lender), prepay the principal of the
Loans in whole or in part. Any partial prepayment shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and shall be in an integral multiple of $500,000. 

(b) Subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 3.03(a), the Borrower may prepay the Loans at any time, and
any prepayment made pursuant to Section 3.03(a) shall be made together with the Applicable Premium; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the continuation of the Existing Loans as Loans hereunder as of the
Effective Date shall not constitute a prepayment of the Existing Loans. 
 (c) Each prepayment pursuant to this
Section 3.03 shall be made, together with accrued interest to the date of payment, as set forth in Section 2.06. 

ARTICLE IV 
 PAYMENTS;
PRO RATA TREATMENT; SHARING OF SET-OFFS 
 Section 4.01. Payments Generally; Pro Rata
Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 
 (a) Payments by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make
each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 5.01, Section 5.02 or otherwise) prior to 12:00 p.m., Central time,
on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without defense, deduction, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Fees, once paid, shall be fully earned and shall not be refundable under any
circumstances. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments
shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices specified in Section 12.01, except that payments pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02 and
Section 12.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly
following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon
shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. 
 (b) Application of Insufficient
Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of
interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amount of principal then due to such parties. 
 (c) Sharing of Payments by Lenders.
If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of, or interest on, any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment
of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of 

  
 37 

 
its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations
in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans;
provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery,
without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any
payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this
Section 4.01(c) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements
may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 Section 4.02. Presumption of Payment by the Borrower. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date
in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, as the case may be,
severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment
to the Administrative Agent, at the rate then applicable to the Loans, determined as if any PIK Interest were payable in cash. 

Section 4.03. Disposition of Proceeds. The Mortgages contain an assignment by the Loan Parties that are party thereto unto and in
favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, of all of such Loan Parties’ interest in and to production and all proceeds attributable thereto which may be produced from or allocated to the Mortgaged Property. The
Security Instruments further provide in general for the application of such proceeds to the satisfaction of the Indebtedness and other obligations described therein and secured thereby. Notwithstanding the assignment contained in such Security
Instruments, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, (a) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that they will neither notify the purchaser or purchasers of such production nor take any other action to cause such proceeds to be
remitted to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, but the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will instead permit such proceeds to be paid to the applicable Loan Parties and the Lessor and (b) the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative
Agent to take such actions as may be necessary to cause such proceeds to be paid to the applicable Loan Parties and the Lessor. 
 ARTICLE
V 
 INCREASED COSTS; TAXES; ILLEGALITY 

Section 5.01. Increased Costs. 

(a) Changes in Law. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or
for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; or 

  
 38 

 (ii) impose on any Lender any other condition affecting this Agreement or Loans
made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of
maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) Capital Requirements. If any
Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a
consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and
the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s
holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates. As promptly as practical, after a Lender obtains knowledge of
the facts that entitle it to compensation under this Section 5.01, but in any event within ninety (90) days after such Lender acquires such knowledge, such Lender shall provide Borrower with a certificate which
identifies the factual basis for its claim, the amount or amounts that such Lender has reasonably determined will compensate hereunder, and the manner in which such amount or amounts have been calculated. Any Lender claiming additional compensation
under this Section 5.01 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to reduce or eliminate any such additional compensation which may thereafter accrue and which efforts would not, in
the sole discretion of such Lender, be otherwise. A certificate setting forth the basis for determining such amounts necessary to compensate such Lender (including the calculations used to arrive at such additional amounts and the assumptions on
which such calculations were based), submitted to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive evidence, absent manifest error, of the correctness of such amount. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any
such certificate within 20 Business Days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Effect of Failure or Delay in Requesting Compensation. Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to
such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day
period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 Section 5.02. Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor under any Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or any Guarantor shall be required under applicable law to deduct any
Taxes from such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are an Indemnified Tax or Other Taxes, the sum 

  
 39 

 
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 5.02(a)), the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or such Guarantor shall make such
deductions and (iii) the Borrower or such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each
Lender within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on
account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.02) and any penalties, interest and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender as
to the amount of such payment or liability under this Section 5.02 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that the Borrower shall not have any obligation to
indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender for any amounts paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Section 5.02 more than two years prior to the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender
notifies the Borrower of the amount of such payment. 
 (d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the
Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and
without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant
Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any
other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d). 
 (e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as
practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or a Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.02, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(f) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any
Loan Document shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such 

  
 40 

 
properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In
addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as will enable the Withholding Agent to determine whether or
not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such
documentation set forth in Section 5.02(f)(ii)(A) and (ii)(B) and Section 5.02(g) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or
submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a “United States person” as
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, 
 (A) any Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(3) of the Code shall deliver to the Withholding Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent),
executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States federal backup withholding Tax; 

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Withholding Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent), whichever of the
following is applicable: 
 (1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the
United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of the applicable IRS Form W-8 establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States
federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such Tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, the applicable IRS Form W-8
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such Tax treaty; 

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

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent equityholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of
the Code (together with any certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2, F-3,
or F-4, a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN-E; or 

  
 41 

 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed
originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by the applicable IRS Form W-8 or IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents
from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide
a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; and 

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Withholding Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Withholding Agent), executed originals
of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to
permit the Withholding Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it
previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Withholding Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(g) FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to United States Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA
if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or
times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation
reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and to determine the
amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.02(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.02 shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

Section 5.03. Mitigation Obligations. Each Lender may make any Loans to the Borrower through any Lending Office, provided
that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office
for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or
reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not
otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

  
 42 

 Section 5.04. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in
the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain Loans, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof and such Lender’s
obligation to make such Loans shall be suspended (the “Affected Loans”) until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain such Loans.

paid by it, except Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the Borrower or such other Loan Party, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The charges,

the Borrower, there has been no “prohibited transaction” (as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that, either individually or in
the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) Except as could not reasonably be expected,
either individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, no ERISA Event has occurred, and none of the Borrower, any Loan Party, nor any ERISA Affiliate is aware of any fact, event or circumstance that, either individually or in
the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event with respect to any Pension Plan or Multiemployer Plan. 

(d) Except as could not reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, full payment when
due has been made of all amounts which the Borrower, each other Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate is required, under the terms of each Plan, Pension Plan, Multiemployer Plan or applicable law, to have paid as contributions to such Plan, Pension Plan
or Multiemployer Plan as of the date hereof. 
 (e) None of the Loan Parties nor any ERISA Affiliate sponsors, maintains, or contributes to
an employee welfare benefit plan, as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA, including, without limitation, any such plan maintained to provide benefits to former employees of such entities (other than in accordance with Section 4980B of the
Code or any similar State law), that may not be terminated by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate in its sole discretion at any time without any material liability. 

(f) The present value of all accrued benefit liabilities (as defined in Section 4001(a)(16) of ERISA) under each Pension Plan (based on
those assumptions used to fund such Pension Plan) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Pension Plan allocable to such accrued
benefits by a material amount (any such excess, “Unfunded Pension Liabilities”). As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan, the potential liability of the Borrower, any Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate
for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, is zero. 

Section 7.11. Disclosure; No Material Misstatements. The Borrower has disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders all
agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which any Loan Party is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. None of
the reports, financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of the Loan Parties to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their Affiliates in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or delivered hereunder or under any other Loan Document (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected 

  
 51 

 
financial information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. There is no fact peculiar to the
Loan Parties which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or in the future is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and which has not been set forth in this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the other
documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by or on behalf of the Loan Parties prior to, or on, the date hereof in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. There are no statements or
conclusions in any Reserve Report which are based upon or include misleading information or fail to take into account material information regarding the matters reported therein, it being understood that projections concerning volumes attributable
to the Sand Properties of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and production and cost estimates contained in each Reserve Report are necessarily based upon professional opinions, estimates and projections and that the Borrower and the other Loan
Parties do not warrant that such opinions, estimates and projections will ultimately prove to have been accurate. 
 Section 7.12.
Insurance. The Loan Parties have (a) all insurance policies sufficient for the compliance by each of them with all material Governmental Requirements and all material agreements and (b) insurance coverage in at least amounts and
against such risk (including, without limitation, public liability) that are usually insured against by companies similarly situated and engaged in the same or a similar business for the assets and operations of the Loan Parties. The Administrative
Agent and the Lenders have been named as additional insureds in respect of such liability insurance policies and the Administrative Agent has been named as loss payee with respect to Property loss insurance. 

Section 7.13. Restriction on Liens. None of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is a party to any material agreement or arrangement,
or subject to any order, judgment, writ or decree, which either restricts or purports to restrict its ability to grant Liens to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties on or in respect of its Properties to secure the Indebtedness, except
for (a) restrictions in the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement with respect to granting Liens of higher or equal priority to the Liens securing the RCA Obligations and (b) with respect to the Logistics Subsidiary
Guarantors, restrictions or conditions imposed by any agreement relating to secured Indebtedness permitted by Section 9.03(c) if such restrictions or conditions apply only to the property or assets securing such
Indebtedness. 
 Section 7.14. Subsidiaries and Capitalization. 

(a) Except as set forth on Schedule 7.14(a) or as disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which shall
promptly furnish a copy to the Lenders), which shall be a supplement to Schedule 7.14(a), the Borrower has no Subsidiaries and the Borrower has no Foreign Subsidiaries. 

(b) Schedule 7.14(b) lists the owners of all authorized and outstanding Equity Interests of each Loan Party,
including options and other equity equivalents of each Loan Party, together with the amount and percentage of such Equity Interests held by each such owner. All of the outstanding Equity Interests of each Loan Party are validly issued and free and
clear of any and all Liens (other than Liens in favor of Administrative Agent pursuant to the Instruments and Permitted Liens). 
 (c) Except
as set forth on Schedule 7.14(c), there (i) are no outstanding or (ii) any present plans to issue any shares of capital stock or other Equity Interests, securities, rights, warrants or options convertible or
exchangeable into or exercisable for any shares of capital stock or other Equity Interests, stock appreciation rights or phantom stock of any Loan Party; provided, however, nothing contained in this
Section 7.14 shall restrict any Loan Party from granting equity options to its managers or directors in accordance with this Agreement or pursuant to Lender’s prior written consent. Except as set forth on
Schedule 7.14(c), no Loan Party is under any obligation, contingent or otherwise, to redeem or 

  
 52 

 
otherwise acquire any shares of its capital stock or other Equity Interests or any securities, rights or options to acquire such capital stock, Equity Interests, stock appreciation rights or
phantom stock. Except as contemplated by the Organizational Documents of the Loan Parties in effect as of the date hereof and the Loan Documents, there are no agreements between any Persons, equityholders, or managers or directors of any Loan Party
with respect to the voting or transfer of any Equity Interests of a Loan Party owned by such parties or with respect to any other aspect of their affairs concerning any Loan Party other than those set forth on
Schedule 7.14(c), none of which conflict with the primary rights granted to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the Loan Documents or any related agreements executed simultaneously herewith. 

(d) Except as set forth on Schedule 7.14(d), there are no statutory or contractual shareholders’ preemptive
rights with respect to the Equity Interests of any Loan Party. No Loan Party has violated any applicable federal or state securities laws in connection with the offer, sale or issuance of any of its Equity Interests. Except as set forth on
Schedule 7.14(d), there are no agreements granting registration rights to any Person with respect to any Equity Interests of a Loan Party, none of which conflict with the primary rights granted to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender in the Loan Documents or any related agreements executed simultaneously herewith. 
 Section 7.15. Location of
Business and Offices. The Borrower’s jurisdiction of organization is Delaware; the name of the Borrower as listed in the public records of its jurisdiction of organization is VPROP Operating, LLC; and the organizational identification

(a) The Loan Parties have Marketable Title to the Sand Properties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report and each of the Loan
Parties has good title to all its material personal Properties, in each case, free and clear of all Liens except Liens permitted by Section 9.04. After giving full effect to the Excepted Liens, the Loan Party specified as
the owner owns the net interests in production attributable to the Sand Interests as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report, and the ownership of such Properties shall not in any material respect obligate such Loan Party to bear the
costs and expenses relating to the maintenance, development and operations of each such Property in an amount in excess of the working interest of each Property set forth in the most recently delivered Reserve Report that is not offset by a
corresponding proportionate increase in the Borrower’s or such other Loan Party’s net revenue interest in such Property. 
 (b) All
material leases and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of the Loan Parties are valid and subsisting, in full force and effect, and there exists no default or event or circumstance which with the giving of notice or the passage of
time or both would give rise to a default under any such leases or agreements. 
 (c) The rights and Properties presently owned, leased or
licensed by each Loan Party including, without limitation, all easements and rights of way, include all rights and Properties necessary to permit each Loan Party to conduct its business in all material respects in the same manner as its business has

their businesses are in good working condition and are maintained in accordance with prudent business standards. 
 (e) Each Loan Party owns,
or is licensed to use, all trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents and other intellectual Property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Borrower and such other Loan Parties does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person,
except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Loan Parties either own or have valid licenses or other rights to use all databases, geological
data, geophysical data, engineering data, seismic data, maps, interpretations and other technical information used in their businesses as presently conducted, subject to the limitations contained in the agreements governing the use of the same,
which limitations are customary for companies engaged in the business of the exploration and production of Finished Sand Inventory and other minerals. 

Section 7.17. Maintenance of Properties. The Sand Properties of the Loan Parties have been maintained, operated and developed in a
good and workmanlike manner and in material conformity with all Governmental Requirements and in material conformity with the provisions of all leases, subleases or other contracts comprising a part of the Sand Interests and other contracts and

Tolar Lease and the Winkler Lease and such agreements continue in full force and effect. All material improvements, fixtures and equipment owned in whole or in part by the Loan Parties that are necessary to conduct normal operations are being
maintained in a state adequate to conduct normal operations and in a manner consistent with the Loan Parties’ past practices. 

Section 7.18. Prepayments. Except as set forth on Schedule 7.18 or on the most recent certificate
delivered pursuant to Section 8.12(b), on a net basis there are no prepayments which would require any Loan Party to deliver Finished Sand Inventory or other minerals produced from their Sand Properties at some future time
without then or thereafter receiving full payment therefor. 
 Section 7.19. Marketing of Production. Except for contracts
listed and in effect on the date hereof on Schedule 7.19, and thereafter either disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent or included in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (with respect to all of which

curtailed substantially below the subject Property’s delivery capacity), no material agreements exist which are not cancelable on sixty (60) days’ notice or less without penalty or detriment for the sale of Finished Sand Inventory or
other minerals by any Loan Party (including, without limitation, calls on or other rights to purchase, production of the Sand Properties, whether or not the same are currently being exercised) that (a) pertain to the sale of production at a
fixed price and (b) have a maturity or expiry date of longer than six (6) months from the date hereof.

or X of the Board.

aggregate assets (after giving effect to amounts that could reasonably be received by reason of indemnity, offset, insurance or any similar arrangement), at a fair valuation, of each Loan Party will exceed the aggregate Debt of such Loan Party, as
the Debt becomes absolute and matures, (b) each of the Loan Parties will not have incurred or intended to incur, and will not believe that it will incur, Debt beyond its ability to pay such Debt (after taking into account the timing and amounts
of cash to be received by each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of its liabilities, and giving effect to amounts that could reasonably be received by reason of indemnity, offset, insurance or
any similar arrangement) as such Debt becomes absolute and matures and (c) each of the Loan Parties will not have (and will have no reason to believe that it will have thereafter) unreasonably small capital for the conduct of its business.

 ARTICLE XI 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

Section 11.01. Appointment and Authority . 

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints ARCC to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article XI are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such
provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied
(or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby
irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by the Borrower, the Guarantors and the Lessor to secure any of
the Indebtedness, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent”, and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.05 for purposes
of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Instruments, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits
of all provisions of this Article XI and Article XII (including Section 12.03(c)), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents. 

Section 11.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers
in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context
otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the 

  
 81 

 
Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other
advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

 Section 11.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary
to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law; 

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the
failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; 

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02 and
Section 12.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment (the Administrative Agent shall be
deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender; and 

(e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any
of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other
agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Instruments, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set
forth in Article VI or elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 82 

 Section 11.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative
Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

Section 11.05. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such
sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of
the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the
extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such
sub-agents. 
 Section 11.06. Resignation of Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a financial institution with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution with an
office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or
such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. 

(b) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold
such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations
provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance
of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than as provided in
Section 12.05 with respect to Section 5.02 and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date), and the
retiring 

  
 83 

 
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this
Section 11.06). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its
sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

Section 11.07. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent and Other
Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each such Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at
the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be
required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or to inspect the Properties or
books of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties. Each 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 11.08. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding. In case of the pendency of any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other
Indebtedness that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 12.03) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 12.03. 

  
 84 

 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or
consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Indebtedness or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of
any Lender or in any such proceeding. 
 The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the
Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Indebtedness (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Indebtedness pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner
purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363,
1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or
with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Indebtedness owed to the Secured Parties
shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Indebtedness with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation
of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition
vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for
the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be
governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in
Section 12.02(b), (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Indebtedness to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed
to have received a pro rata portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Indebtedness to be credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition
vehicle to take any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Indebtedness that is assigned to an acquisition vehicle is not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of
Indebtedness assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Indebtedness shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt
instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Indebtedness that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further
action. 
 Section 11.09. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Without limiting the provision of
Section 11.10, the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion: 

(a) to release any Lien on any Property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the
Commitments and payment in full of all Indebtedness, (ii) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan
Document to a Person that is not the Borrower or a Guarantor, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 12.02; and 

(b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on
such property that is permitted by Section 9.04(d). 

  
 85 

 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in
writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement pursuant to this
Section 11.09. In each case as specified in this Section 11.09, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the Borrower, Guarantors or Lessor, as
applicable, such documents as such Person may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Property from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Instruments or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to
release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 11.09. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the
existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by the Borrower, any Guarantor or the Lessor in connection therewith, nor shall
the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

Section 11.10. Action by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to take any discretionary action or
exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02) and in all cases the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
discretionary action or exercise any discretionary power hereunder or under any other Loan Documents unless it shall (a) receive written instructions from the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, (or such other number or percentage
of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02) specifying the action to be taken and (b) be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and
expenses which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The instructions as aforesaid and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto by the Administrative Agent shall be binding on all of the Lenders.
If a Default has occurred and is continuing, then the Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders, provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have
received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. In no event,
however, shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable law. The Administrative Agent shall not be
liable to any Lender for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or the Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in
Section 12.02), and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided
for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith INCLUDING ITS OWN ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Documents or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or any other Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or
duties of the Administrative Agent or any other Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such other Agent, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any supplement to
Schedule 7.14 (Loan Parties and Subsidiaries) shall be effective simply by delivering to the Administrative Agent a supplemental schedule clearly marked as such and, upon receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly
deliver a copy thereof to the Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment, waiver
or other modification referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso of this paragraph and then only in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be directly affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification. 

(c) The Borrower will not, and will not permit Parent or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be
paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Lender for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of any Loan Document unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Lenders
that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement (it being understood that this provision shall not apply to (i) arrangement fees or other
consideration payable to any financial institution acting as an arranger (or similar role) for any such consent, waiver or amendment or (ii) any consideration payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such). 

Section 12.03. Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees, charges and
disbursements of counsel and other outside consultants for the Administrative Agent, the reasonable and documented travel, photocopy, mailing, courier, telephone and other similar expenses, including all Syndtrak (or similar service) expenses, and
the reasonable and documented cost of environmental assessments and audits and surveys and appraisals, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and
administration (both before and after the execution hereof and including advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent as to the rights and duties of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect

  
 88 

 
thereto) of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of or consents related to the provisions hereof or thereof
(whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented costs, expenses, Taxes, assessments and other charges incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection
with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by this Agreement or any Security Instrument or any other document referred to therein and (iii) if a Default has occurred, all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section 12.03, or in connection with the Loans made,
including, without limitation, all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans; provided that
all Lenders shall be represented by the same legal counsel (which may be a law firm engaged by the Lenders or attorneys employed by a Lender or a combination of the foregoing) selected by the Lenders; provided, that if such legal counsel
determines in good faith that representing all such Lenders would or could result in a conflict of interest under Laws or ethical principles applicable to such legal counsel or that a defense or counterclaim is available to a Lender that is not
available to all such Lenders, then to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid such a conflict of interest or to permit unqualified assertion of such a defense or counterclaim, each affected Lender shall be entitled to separate representation by
legal counsel selected by that Lender and reasonably acceptable to Borrower; and provided further that the Administrative Agent shall at all times be entitled to representation by separate legal counsel (which may be a law firm or attorneys
employed by the Administrative Agent or a combination of the foregoing). 
 (b) THE BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND
EACH LENDER, AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING PERSONS (EACH SUCH PERSON BEING CALLED AN “INDEMNITEE”) AGAINST, AND DEFEND AND HOLD EACH INDEMNITEE HARMLESS FROM, ANY AND ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, LIABILITIES AND
RELATED EXPENSES, INCLUDING THE REASONABLE FEES, CHARGES AND DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY COUNSEL FOR ANY INDEMNITEE, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF (i) THE EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES HERETO OR THE PARTIES TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR THE
CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR BY ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (PROVIDED THAT THE INDEMNIFICATION IN THIS CLAUSE (i) SHALL NOT EXTEND TO DISPUTES SOLELY BETWEEN OR AMONG THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE LENDERS OR THEIR
RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES), (ii) THE FAILURE OF THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY TO COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, INCLUDING THIS AGREEMENT, OR WITH ANY GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENT, (iii) ANY INACCURACY OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR
ANY BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR SET FORTH IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY INSTRUMENTS, DOCUMENTS OR CERTIFICATIONS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, (iv) ANY LOAN OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS
THEREFROM, (v) ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, (vi) THE OPERATIONS OF THE BUSINESS OF THE BORROWER AND THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES BY THE BORROWER AND THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES, (vii) ANY ASSERTION THAT THE LENDERS WERE NOT ENTITLED
TO RECEIVE THE PROCEEDS RECEIVED PURSUANT TO THE SECURITY INSTRUMENTS, (viii) ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW APPLICABLE TO THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY REGARDING ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES OR OPERATIONS, INCLUDING, THE PRESENCE, GENERATION,

  
 89 

 
STORAGE, RELEASE, THREATENED RELEASE, USE, TRANSPORT, DISPOSAL, ARRANGEMENT FOR DISPOSAL OR TREATMENT OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR AT ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES OR AT ANY OTHER PROPERTY TO WHICH
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS GENERATED BY THE BORROWER, ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY OR THEIR OPERATIONS WERE OR ARE SENT FOR DISPOSAL, (ix) THE BREACH OR NON-COMPLIANCE BY THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY WITH ANY
ENVIRONMENTAL LAW APPLICABLE TO THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY, (x) THE PAST OWNERSHIP BY THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY OF ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES OR PAST ACTIVITY ON ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES WHICH, THOUGH LAWFUL AND FULLY
PERMISSIBLE AT THE TIME, COULD RESULT IN PRESENT LIABILITY, (xi) THE PRESENCE, USE, RELEASE, STORAGE, TREATMENT, DISPOSAL, GENERATION, THREATENED RELEASE, TRANSPORT, ARRANGEMENT FOR TRANSPORT OR ARRANGEMENT FOR DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
ON OR AT ANY OF THE PROPERTIES OWNED OR OPERATED BY THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY, OR ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED PRESENCE OR RELEASE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR FROM ANY PROPERTY OWNED OR OPERATED BY THE BORROWER OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES
OR AT ANY OTHER PROPERTY TO WHICH HAZARDOUS MATERIALS GENERATED BY THE BORROWER, ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY OR THEIR OPERATIONS WERE OR ARE SENT FOR DISPOSAL, (xii) ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THE BORROWER OR ANY OF THE OTHER
LOAN PARTIES, OR (xiii) ANY OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH OR SAFETY CONDITION IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR (xiv) ANY ACTUAL OR PROSPECTIVE CLAIM, LITIGATION, INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, WHETHER
BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY INDEMNITEE IS A PARTY THERETO, AND SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL EXTEND TO EACH INDEMNITEE NOTWITHSTANDING THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE OF EVERY KIND OR CHARACTER WHATSOEVER,
WHETHER ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, WHETHER AN AFFIRMATIVE ACT OR AN OMISSION INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL TYPES OF NEGLIGENT CONDUCT IDENTIFIED IN THE RESTATEMENT (SECOND) OF TORTS OF ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNITEES OR BY REASON OF STRICT LIABILITY
IMPOSED WITHOUT FAULT ON ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNITEES; PROVIDED THAT SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT, AS TO ANY INDEMNITEE, BE AVAILABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES OR RELATED EXPENSES (A) ARE DETERMINED
BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT TO HAVE RESULTED FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE OR (B) ARE IN RESPECT OF ANY PROPERTY FOR ANY OCCURRENCE ARISING FROM THE ACTS OR
OMISSIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER DURING THE PERIOD AFTER WHICH SUCH PERSON, ITS SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS HAVE OBTAINED TITLE AND POSSESSION OF SUCH PROPERTY BY FORECLOSURE OR DEED IN LIEU OF FORECLOSURE; BUT EXCLUDING ANY OCCURRENCE
REGARDING ANY VIOLATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL LAW FIRST OCCURRING BEFORE SUCH PERIOD AND ANY HAZARDOUS MATERIAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION FIRST PRESENT ON THE PROPERTY BEFORE SUCH PERIOD. 

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under
Section 12.03(a) or (b), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable share, based on the aggregate Commitments (determined as of the time that the applicable
unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as such. 

  
 90 

 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives,
any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, the Amendment No. 1 Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section 12.03 shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after written demand
therefor accompanied by appropriate documentation thereof. 
 Section 12.04. Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower
without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 12.04. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or
implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in Section 12.04(c)) and, to the extent
expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 (b) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 12.04(b)(i), any Lender may assign to one or
more Persons all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it), with notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (failure to
provide or delay in providing such notice shall not invalidate such assignment). 
 (i) Assignments shall be subject to the
following additional conditions: 
 (A) the Borrower shall have consented to such assignment, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (2) such assignment is to an Eligible Assignee;
provided further that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice
thereof, or (3) in the circumstances described in the Fee Letter; 
 (B) the Administrative Agent shall have consented
to such assignment, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that no such consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required if such assignment is to an Eligible Assignee; 

(C) except in the case of (1) an assignment to an assignee that is a Lender immediately prior to giving effect to such
assignment or an Affiliate of a Lender or (2) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
(determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent,
provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if the assignee is an Eligible Assignee or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

  
 91 

 (D) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (E) the parties to each assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; 

(F) the assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire; and 
 (G) in no event may any Lender assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement to the Borrower, any Affiliate of the Borrower or a natural person. 
 (ii) Subject to
Section 12.04(b)(iii) and the acceptance and recording thereof, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released
from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to
be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01, Section 5.02 and Section 12.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that
does not comply with this Section 12.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with
Section 12.04(c). 
 (iii) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing
to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In connection with any changes to the Register, if necessary, the Administrative Agent will reflect the revisions on Annex I and forward a
copy of such revised Annex I to the Borrower and each Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the registration requirements in United States Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c), or any successor provisions thereof, so that any payments made on a Loan or Note are considered to be paid on a debt instrument issued in “registered form” pursuant to such
regulations, and all parties hereto shall construe the provisions of this Credit Agreement to ensure that the Loans or Notes will be considered to have been so issued. 

  
 92 

 (iv) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by
an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and applicable tax forms (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
Section 12.04(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 12.04(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained
therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 12.04(b). 

(c) (1) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, sell participations to one or more banks or other Person (other than the
Borrower, any Affiliate of the Borrower or a natural person) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans
owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations,
(C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (D) if the Participant or,
if the Participant is a partnership, one or more direct or indirect partners of such Participant are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Participant may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, as applicable. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide
that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the proviso to Section 12.02 that affects such Participant. In addition such agreement must
provide that the Participant be bound by the provisions of Section 12.03. Subject to Section 12.04(c)(ii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 5.01, and Section 5.02 (in each case, without duplication of any benefits afforded the Lender granting such participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(b). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of
each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender
shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other
obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under
Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent)
shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the registration requirements in United States Treasury Regulations
Section 5f.103-1(c), or any successor provisions thereof, so that any payments made on a Participant’s interest are considered to be paid on a debt instrument issued in “registered form”
pursuant to such regulations, and all parties hereto shall construe (and shall cause any participants to construe) the provisions of this Credit Agreement to ensure that any participant’s interest will be considered to have been so issued. 

  
 93 

 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such
Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.02 unless the Borrower is notified of
the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 5.02(f) as though it were a Lender. 

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank, and this Section 12.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

 (e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 12.04, no transfer or assignment of the interests or
obligations of any Lender or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower and the Guarantors to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the
“Blue Sky” laws of any state. 
 Section 12.05. Survival; Revival; Reinstatement. 

(a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments
delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any
Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time
any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the
Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 5.01 (subject to Section 5.01(d)), Section 5.02 (subject to the proviso in the last sentence of
Section 5.02(c)) and Section 12.03 (for a period of two years after the Maturity Date) and Article XI shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof; provided that any time limitation
on the survival of any provision hereunder shall be tolled for any claims filed prior to the expiration of such time limitation until two months after final, non-appealable adjudication of any such claim. 

(b) To the extent that any payments on the Indebtedness or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent
or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Indebtedness so satisfied shall be revived and
continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each Loan Document shall continue in full force
and effect. In such event, each Loan Document shall be automatically reinstated and the Borrower shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to effect such reinstatement. 

  
 94 

 Section 12.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute
an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. 
 (b) This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any
separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings,
oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. 
 (c) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL
AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO 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. 

(d) Except as provided in Section 6.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the
Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission (e.g. .pdf) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. 
 Section 12.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held
to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 12.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its
Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations
(of whatsoever kind) at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party owed to such Lender now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of
each Lender under this Section 12.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or its Affiliates may have. 

Section 12.09. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS. 

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

  
 95 

 (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE
COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, IN EITHER CASE LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND
(TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW) IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF
VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS. THIS SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION IS
NON-EXCLUSIVE AND DOES NOT PRECLUDE A PARTY FROM OBTAINING JURISDICTION OVER ANOTHER PARTY IN ANY COURT OTHERWISE HAVING JURISDICTION. 

(c) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE
MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO IT AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN Section 12.01 OR SUCH OTHER ADDRESS AS IS SPECIFIED PURSUANT TO Section 12.01 (OR ITS
ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION), SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF A PARTY OR ANY HOLDER OF A LOAN TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANOTHER PARTY IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 
 (d) EACH PARTY HEREBY (i) IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN; (ii) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM
EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY SUCH LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES; (iii) CERTIFIES THAT NO PARTY
HERETO NOR ANY REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OR COUNSEL FOR ANY PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, OR IMPLIED THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS, AND (iv) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS Section 12.09. 

Section 12.10. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only,
are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

Section 12.11. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, partners, funding sources, administrators, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors and sub-advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information
confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; provided that, subject to the Borrower’s
obligation to reimburse expenses under 

  
 96 

 
Section 12.03, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain confidential treatment of such Information; provided further, that it shall
not be liable for failure to obtain such confidential treatment, (d) to any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any
suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section 12.11, to (i) any assignee of or Participant or investor in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant or investor in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a
result of a breach of this Section 12.11 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this
Section 12.11, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any other Loan Party relating to the Borrower or any other Loan Party and their businesses, other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any other
Loan Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 12.11 shall be
considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, “Information” shall not include, and the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the respective Affiliates of each of the foregoing (and the respective partners,
directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives of the aforementioned Persons), and any other party, may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind (a) any information with respect to the United
States federal and state income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated hereby and any facts that may be relevant to understanding the United States federal or state income tax treatment of such transactions (“tax
structure”), which facts shall not include for this purpose the names of the parties or any other person named herein, or information that would permit identification of the parties or such other persons, or any pricing terms or other
nonpublic business or financial information that is unrelated to such tax treatment or tax structure, and (b) all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or
such Lender relating to such tax treatment or tax structure. 
 Section 12.12. Interest Rate Limitation. It is the intention of
the parties hereto that each Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States
of America, the State of Texas or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the
Loan Documents or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Loans, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender that is contracted for,
taken, reserved, charged or received by such Lender under any of the Loan Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Loans shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and any excess shall
be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the Indebtedness (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Indebtedness shall have been or would thereby be paid in full,
refunded by such Lender to the Borrower); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the Loans is accelerated by reason of an election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event
of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if 

  
 97 

 
any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically by such Lender as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by
such Lender on the principal amount of the Indebtedness (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Indebtedness shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Borrower). All sums paid or agreed to be paid
to any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the stated term of the Loans until payment in full so
that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (A) the amount of interest payable to any Lender on any date shall be
computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender pursuant to this Section 12.12 and (B) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Lender
would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Lender computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall
continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender until the total amount of interest payable to such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Lender if the total amount of
interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 12.12. To the extent that Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code is relevant for the purpose of determining the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to a Lender,
such Lender elects to determine the applicable rate ceiling under such Chapter by the weekly ceiling from time to time in effect. Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code does not apply to the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 

Section 12.13. EXCULPATION PROVISIONS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO SPECIFICALLY AGREES THAT IT HAS A DUTY TO READ THIS AGREEMENT
AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND AGREES THAT IT IS CHARGED WITH NOTICE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; THAT IT HAS IN FACT READ THIS AGREEMENT AND IS FULLY INFORMED AND HAS FULL NOTICE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE

OF ITS ATTORNEY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; AND THAT IT RECOGNIZES THAT CERTAIN OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS RESULT IN ONE PARTY ASSUMING THE LIABILITY INHERENT IN SOME ASPECTS OF THE
TRANSACTION AND RELIEVING THE OTHER PARTY OF ITS RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUCH LIABILITY. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT CONTEST THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF ANY EXCULPATORY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS ON THE BASIS THAT THE PARTY HAD NO NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH PROVISION OR THAT THE PROVISION IS NOT “CONSPICUOUS.” 

Section 12.14. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the agreement of the Lenders to make
Loans are solely for the benefit of the Borrower, and no other Person (including, without limitation, any other Loan Party, any obligor, contractor, subcontractor, supplier or materialsman) shall have any rights, claims, remedies or privileges
hereunder or under any other Loan Document against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any reason whatsoever. Except as specified in Section 11.10 and Section 12.03, there are no third party
beneficiaries. 
 Section 12.15. USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies the 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 the Borrower, which information
includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. 

  
 98 

 Section 12.16. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all
aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’
understanding, that: (a)(i) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent or any Lender is intended to be or has been created in respect of the transactions contemplated
hereby or by the other Loan Documents, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender has advised or is advising the Borrower or any Subsidiary on other matters; (ii) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement

risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; and (b)(i) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by
the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other Person; (ii) none of the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders has any obligation to
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their

Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to
the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed
to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it. 
 Section 12.18. Intercreditor Agreement. The Lenders
acknowledge the obligations of the Loan Parties under the RCA Loan Documents, which are secured by Liens on assets of the Loan Parties, and that the relative Lien priorities and other creditor rights of the secured parties thereunder and the Secured

section (or subsection) of the Existing Credit Agreement in any Loan Document (but not in this Agreement) will be deemed amended, mutatis mutandis, to refer to the corresponding provisions
of this Agreement; and (iii) except as the context otherwise requires, on or after the Effective Date all references in this Agreement to this Agreement (including for purposes of indemnification and reimbursement of fees) will be deemed to be

effected by this Agreement is limited as written and is not a consent to any other amendment, restatement, or waiver or other modification, whether or not similar, and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document,

 THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED 

REVOLVING PROMISSORY NOTE 
  

					
	$60,000,000.00	  	Fort Worth, Texas	  	June 14, 2018

 Promise to Pay. For value received, LONESTAR PROSPECTS,
LTD. (“Borrower”), a Texas limited partnership, promises to pay to the order of PLAINSCAPITAL BANK (“Lender”), at its offices in Tarrant County, Texas, at 801
Houston Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76102, the sum of Sixty Million Dollars ($60,000,000.00) (“Total Principal Amount”), or such amount less than the Total Principal Amount which is outstanding from time to time, in legal and lawful
money of the United States of America, together with interest thereon from this date until maturity at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the sum of the Prime Rate in effect from day to day, plus one-half percent (0.5%)(the “Contract Rate”); provided, however, that the Contract Rate shall never fall below a floor rate of five and one-quarter percent
(5.25%) per annum; or (b) the Maximum Rate. “Prime Rate” shall mean at any time the rate of interest per annum then most recently established by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” on corporate loans
for large U.S. commercial banks, as published in the Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal, computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day);
and “Maximum Rate” shall mean at the particular time in question the maximum rate of interest which, under applicable law, may then be charged on this Third Amended and Restated Revolving Promissory Note (the “Revolving
Note”). Each change in the interest rate shall become effective without notice to Borrower on the effective date of each change in the Maximum Rate or the Prime Rate, as the case may be. If at any time the Contract Rate, together with all
charges made in connection with the loan evidenced by this Revolving Note that may be treated as interest under applicable law, shall exceed the Maximum Rate, thereby causing the interest on the principal of this Revolving Note to be limited to the
Maximum Rate, then notwithstanding any subsequent change in either the Prime Rate or the Maximum Rate that would otherwise reduce the Contract Rate to less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest on the principal of this Revolving Note shall
remain equal to the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest accrued on the principal of this Revolving Note equals the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal of this Revolving Note if the Contract Rate had at all times
been in effect. 
 Payment Terms. This Revolving Note is due and payable on the terms set out below: 

(a) interest shall be due and payable monthly as it accrues, commencing on the fourteenth
(14th) day of July, 2018, and continuing on the fourteenth (14th) day of each successive month thereafter during the term of this Revolving
Note; and 
 (b) the principal of this Revolving Note shall be due and payable as required by the Loan Agreement (as defined below) to meet
any Borrowing Base deficiency (if and when required by Lender under the Loan Agreement); and 

 (c) the outstanding principal balance of this Revolving Note, together with all accrued but
unpaid interest, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Unless its maturity is sooner accelerated as set forth herein, this Revolving Note will mature on June 14, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time all unpaid
sums then owing will be payable in full, principal and interest. 
 This Revolving Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time
without premium or penalty. 
 Security. Payment hereof is secured by the following (collectively the “Loan
Documents”): (1) obligations under an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated January 12, 2018, executed by Borrower, Lender, and LONESTAR PROSPECTS HOLDING COMPANY, L.L.C.,
a Texas limited liability company, GARY B. HUMPHREYS, and MARTIN W. ROBERTSON (collectively “Guarantors”), as now or hereafter amended, restated, replaced, supplemented, or
otherwise modified, from time to time (collectively the “Loan Agreement”); (2) the Security Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (3) any other agreement (now existing or made hereafter) relating to the loans
between Lender and Borrower. 
 Revolving Credit. Under the Loan Agreement, Borrower may request advances and make payments hereunder
from time to time, provided that it is understood and agreed that the aggregate principal amount outstanding from time to time hereunder shall not at any time exceed the Total Principal Amount or the Borrowing Base as set forth in the Loan
Agreement. The unpaid balance of this Revolving Note shall increase and decrease with each new advance or payment hereunder, as the case may be. This Revolving Note shall not be deemed terminated or canceled prior to the Maturity Date, although the
entire principal balance hereof may from time to time be paid in full. Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing or otherwise required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to unpaid
accrued interest, then to principal, and any remaining amount to any unpaid collection costs, delinquency charges, and other charges; provided, however, upon delinquency or other Event of Default, Lender reserves the right to apply payments among
principal, interest, delinquency charges, collection costs, and other charges, in such order and manner as the holder of this Revolving Note may from time to time determine in its sole discretion. All payments and prepayments of principal of or
interest on this Revolving Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, at the address of Lender indicated above, or such other place as the holder of this Revolving Note shall designate in
writing to Borrower. If any payment of principal of or interest on this Revolving Note shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and any such extension of
time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. As used herein, the term “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, or any other day on which national banking associations are
authorized to be closed. The books and records of Lender shall be prima facie evidence of all outstanding principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on this Revolving Note. 

Interest on Past Due Amounts and Default Interest. To the extent any interest is not paid on or before the date it becomes due and
payable, Lender may, at its option, add such accrued but unpaid interest to the principal of this Revolving Note. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) while any Event of Default (as defined below) is outstanding, (ii) upon
notice from Lender of a Borrowing Base deficiency under the Loan Agreement and thereafter so long as the Borrowing Base deficiency exists, (iii) upon acceleration of the maturity hereof following an uncured Event of Default, or (iv) at the
Maturity Date, all principal of this Revolving Note shall, at the option of Lender, bear interest at the Maximum Rate until paid. 

  
 Revolving Promissory
Note - Page 2 of 5 

 Late Fees. To the extent any payment due under this Revolving Note or any Loan Document is
not paid within ten (10) calendar days of the due date therefore, in addition to any interest or other fees and charges due hereunder or under the applicable Loan Document, Borrower shall pay a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the amount
of the payment that was required to have been made. 
 Events of Default. The occurrence at any time of any of the following events
or the existence of any of the following conditions shall collectively be called “Events of Default” or singly called an “Event of Default”: 

(a) Failure to make punctual payment when due of any sums owing on this Revolving Note; or 

(b) Any “Event of Default” under the Loan Agreement, the Events of Default defined in the Loan Agreement being cumulative to those
contained in this Revolving Note. 
 Remedies. Upon an Event of Default, and Borrower’s failure to timely cure such default
following any notice, cure, or grace period required by the Loan Agreement, at the option of Lender the entire indebtedness evidenced hereby, as well as all other liabilities of Borrower to Lender, shall be matured without further notice, and Lender
may exercise any or all of the rights and remedies available to it, including, without limitation, those under this Revolving Note, the Loan Documents, and any other instrument or agreement relating hereto, or any one or more of them. The failure of
Lender to exercise its option to accelerate the maturity of this Revolving Note shall not constitute a waiver of its right to exercise the same at any other time. Any Event of Default under this Revolving Note shall constitute a default under each
of the Loan Documents, and any default under any of the Loan Documents shall constitute an Event of Default under this Revolving Note. 

Waiver. Except such notice of default as is specifically required by the Loan Agreement, Borrower and all other Obligated Parties
severally waive the order of their liability, the marshaling of assets, demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest, notice of default, notice of intent to accelerate maturity, and notice of the acceleration.
Borrower and all other Obligated Parties agree to all renewals and extensions of this Revolving Note and partial payments and releases or substitutions of security, in whole or in part, with or without notice, before or after maturity. In case of
any renewal or extension of this Revolving Note or any part of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, all liens and security interests securing payment hereof will continue to secure payment of the renewal or extension note or notes. 

Business Loan. Borrower represents to and covenants with Lender that: (1) all loans evidenced by this Revolving Note are and shall
be “business loans” as that term is used in the Depository Institutions Deregulation and Monetary Control Act of 1980, as amended; and (2) the loans are for business, commercial, investment, or other similar purposes and not for
personal, family, household, or agricultural use, as those terms are used in the Texas Finance Code. Borrower and Lender further agree that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code does not apply to this Revolving Note, even if this Revolving Note
evidences a revolving debt. 

  
 Revolving Promissory
Note - Page 3 of 5 

 Collection Costs. If this Revolving Note is placed in the hands of attorneys for
collection, if suit is filed hereon, if this Revolving Note is collected through bankruptcy proceedings (including any proceeding, federal or state, for the relief of debtors), or if Lender becomes a party either as plaintiff or defendant in any
legal proceeding in relation to the property securing payment of this Revolving Note, Borrower agrees to pay additionally to Lender reasonable attorneys fees and collection costs. 

Savings Clause. Regardless of any provision contained in this Revolving Note, the Loan Documents, or any instrument executed or
delivered in connection herewith, it is the express intent of the parties that at no time shall any of the Obligated Parties pay interest in excess of the Maximum Rate (or any other interest amount which might in any way be deemed usurious), and
Lender will never be considered to have contracted for or to be entitled to charge, receive, collect, or apply as interest on this Revolving Note, any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate (or any other interest amount which might in any way
be deemed usurious), and, in the event that Lender ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, the amount which would be excessive interest will be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of this Revolving Note, and,
if the principal balance of this Revolving Note is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Borrower. In determining whether the interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate (or any other interest amount which might in any
way be deemed usurious), Borrower and Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law: (1) characterize any non-principal payment (other than payments which are expressly designated as
interest payments hereunder) as an expense or fee rather than as interest; (2) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof; and (3) spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of this Revolving Note
so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the term. 
 Miscellaneous. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES
MAY APPLY, THIS REVOLVING NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS. THIS INSTRUMENT IS MADE AND IS PERFORMABLE IN FORT WORTH, TARRANT COUNTY, TEXAS, AND IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE INVOLVING THIS
REVOLVING NOTE OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT VENUE FOR SUCH DISPUTES SHALL BE IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN TARRANT COUNTY, TEXAS. 

Time is of the essence of this Revolving Note. 

This Revolving Note may not be changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any waiver,
change, modification, or discharge is sought. 
 This Revolving Note and all the covenants, promises, and agreements contained herein are
binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns.
