WARRANT
AGREEMENT

 

THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”), dated as of ______________, 2015, is entered into by and between Cryoport, Inc., a Nevada corporation
(the “Company”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation (the “Warrant Agent”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company
has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-1, No. 333-203006 (the “Registration
Statement”), for the registration, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) of, among other securities,
the Warrants and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants;

 

WHEREAS, the Company
desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing to so act, in connection with the issuance,
registration, transfer, exchange and exercise of the Warrants;

 

WHEREAS, the Company
desires to provide for the form and provisions of the Warrants, the terms upon which they shall be issued and exercised, and the
respective rights, limitation of rights, and immunities of the Company, the Warrant Agent, and the holders of the Warrants; and

 

WHEREAS, all acts and
things have been done and performed which are necessary to make the Warrants, when executed on behalf of the Company and countersigned
by or on behalf of the Warrant Agent, as provided herein, the valid, binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to authorize
the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.           Appointment
of Warrant Agent. The Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company for the Warrants, and the Warrant
Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the same in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.

 

2.           Warrants.

 

2.1           Form
of Warrant. Each Warrant shall be (a) issued in registered form only, (b) in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto,
the provisions of which are incorporated herein, and (c) signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the Chairman of the Board
or the President and the Treasurer or the Secretary of the Company. In the event the person whose facsimile signature has been
placed upon any Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant
is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.

 

2.2           Effect
of Countersignature. Unless and until countersigned by the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Agreement, Warrant shall be invalid
and of no effect and may not be exercised by the holder thereof.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

2.3         Registration
and Listing.

 

2.3.1           Warrant
Register. The Warrant Agent shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register”) for the registration of the original
issuance and transfers of the Warrants. Upon the initial issuance of the Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall issue and register the
Warrants in the names of the respective holders thereof in such denominations and otherwise in accordance with instructions delivered
to the Warrant Agent by the Company.

 

2.3.2           Registered
Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and
treat the person in whose name such Warrant shall be registered upon the Warrant Register (the “registered holder”),
as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other
writing on the warrant certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Warrant Agent), for the purpose of any exercise
thereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

2.3.3           Stock
Exchange Listings. So long as any Warrants remain outstanding, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to take
all necessary action to have the Warrants and the Common Stock, immediately upon their issuance upon exercise of Warrants, (i)
listed on each national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or (ii) if the Common Stock is not then listed
on any national securities exchange, listed for quotation on the OTCQB or such other over-the-counter quotation system on which
the Common Stock may then be listed.

 

3.           Terms
and Exercise of Warrants.

 

3.1         Warrant
Price. Each Warrant shall, when countersigned by the Warrant Agent, entitle the registered holder thereof, subject to the provisions
of such Warrant, as the case may be, and of this Warrant Agreement, to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common
Stock stated therein, at the price of $ ______ per whole share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 4 hereof and in
the last sentence of this Section 3.1. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Warrant Agreement refers to the price
per share at which Common Stock may be purchased at the time a Warrant is exercised. The Company, in its sole discretion, may lower
the Warrant Price at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below).

 

3.2         Duration
of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (“Exercise Period”) commencing on ____________,
2015 and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on ____________, 2020 (the “Expiration Date”). Each Warrant not
exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under
this Agreement shall cease at the close of business on the Expiration Date. The Company, in its sole discretion, may extend the
duration of the Warrants by delaying the Expiration Date.

 

3.3         Exercise
of Warrants.

 

3.3.1           Payment.
Subject to the provisions of the Warrant and this Warrant Agreement, a Warrant, when countersigned by the Warrant Agent, may be
exercised by the registered holder thereof by surrendering it, at the office of the Warrant Agent, or at the office of its successor
as Warrant Agent, in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of New York, with the subscription form, as set forth in the Warrant,
duly executed, and by paying in full the Warrant Price for each full share of Common Stock as to which the Warrant is exercised
and any and all applicable taxes due in connection with the exercise of the Warrant, by certified check payable to the order of
the Warrant Agent.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

3.3.2           Cashless
Exercise. If, and only if, at the time of exercise of the Warrants there is no effective registration statement registering,
or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Common Stock to the Warrantholder (as defined in the
Warrant), then, and only then, the Warrants may at the option of the Warrantholder be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time
by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common
Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

 

(A) = the VWAP (defined below) on the trading day
immediately preceding the date on which the Warrantholder elects to exercise the Warrants by means of a “cashless exercise,”
as set forth in the applicable subscription form;

 

(B) = the Warrant Price of the Warrants, as adjusted
hereunder; and

 

(X) = the number of shares of Common Stock that would
be issuable upon exercise of the Warrants being exercised in accordance with the terms hereof if such exercise were by means of
a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

“VWAP” means, for any date,
the price per share of Common Stock determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then
listed or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ National Market, the NASDAQ Capital Market
or the OTC Bulletin Board (each, a “Trading Market”), the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for
such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported
by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York
City time)), (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading or quoted for trading on a Trading Market and if
prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by Pink OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar
organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock
so reported, or (c) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser
selected in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

3.3.3           Issuance
of Certificates. As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the
Warrant Price, the Company shall issue to the registered holder of such Warrant a certificate or certificates representing the
number of full shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by
him, her or it, and, if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new countersigned Warrant for the number of shares
as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver
any securities pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant unless (a) a registration statement under the Act with respect to the Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the Warrants is available for delivery to the Warrant holders or (b) in the opinion of counsel to the Company,
the exercise of the Warrants is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and such securities are qualified for sale
or exempt from qualification under applicable securities laws of the states or other jurisdictions in which the registered holder
resides. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any registered holder in any state in which such exercise or
issuance would be unlawful. In the event that a registration statement under the Act with respect to the Common Stock underlying
the Warrants is not effective or a current prospectus is not available, or because such exercise would be unlawful with respect
to a registered holder in any state, the registered holder shall not be entitled to exercise such Warrants and such Warrants may
have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to “net cash settle” the warrant exercise.

 

3.3.4           Valid
Issuance. All shares of Common Stock issued upon the proper exercise of a Warrant in conformity with this Agreement shall be
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

3.3.5           Date
of Issuance. Each person in whose name any such certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued shall for all purposes be
deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which the Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant
Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment
is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such
shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

 

4.           Adjustments.

 

4.1         Stock
Dividends - Split-Ups. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 below, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common
Stock, or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares of
Common Stock.

 

4.2         Aggregation
of Shares. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6, the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Common Stock or other
similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar
event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease
in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

 

4.3         Adjustments
in Exercise Price. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted,
as provided in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant
Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

4.4         Replacement
of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock (other than a change covered by Section 4.1 or 4.2 hereof or one that solely affects the par value of such shares of Common
Stock), or, in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation
or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or, in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets
or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, in connection with which the Company is dissolved,
the Warrant holders shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified
in the Warrants and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon
the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including
cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such
sale or transfer, that the Warrant holder would have received if such Warrant holder had exercised his, her or its Warrant(s) immediately
prior to such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by Section 4.1 or 4.2,
then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and this Section 4.4. The provisions of this Section 4.4
shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers.

 

4.5         Notices
of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant,
the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Warrant Agent, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from such
adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant,
setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Upon the occurrence
of any event specified in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4, then, in any such event, the Company shall give written notice to each
Warrant holder, at the last address set forth for such holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date
of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

 

4.6         No
Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not
issue fractional shares upon exercise of Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, the holder
of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall,
upon such exercise, round up or down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrant
holder.

 

4.7         Form
of Warrant. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, and Warrants issued
after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of shares as is stated in the Warrants initially issued
pursuant to this Agreement. However, the Company may, at any time, in its sole discretion, make any change in the form of Warrant
that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any Warrant thereafter issued or countersigned,
whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

5.           Transfer
and Exchange of Warrants.

 

5.1         Registration
of Transfer. The Warrant Agent shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding Warrant in the Warrant Register,
upon surrender of such Warrant for transfer, properly endorsed with signatures properly medallion guaranteed and accompanied by
appropriate instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants
shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. The Warrants so cancelled may be delivered by the
Warrant Agent to the Company from time to time upon request.

 

5.2         Procedure
for Surrender of Warrants. Warrants may be surrendered to the Warrant Agent, together with a written request for exchange or
transfer, and thereupon the Warrant Agent shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the registered
holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that in the event
that a Warrant surrendered for transfer bears a restrictive legend, the Warrant Agent shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new
Warrants in exchange therefor until the Warrant Agent has received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer
is exempt from registration under the Federal Securities Act of 1933, as amended and indicating whether the new Warrants must also
bear a restrictive legend.

 

5.3         Fractional
Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which will result in the
issuance of a warrant certificate for a fraction of a warrant.

 

5.4         Service
Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Warrants.

 

5.5         Warrant
Execution and Countersignature. The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to countersign and to deliver, in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, the Warrants required to be issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5, and the Company, whenever
required by the Warrant Agent, will supply the Warrant Agent with Warrants duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.

 

6.           Other
Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

 

6.1         No
Rights as Stockholder. A Warrant does not entitle the registered holder thereof to any of the rights of a stockholder of the
Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights
to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors
of the Company or any other matter.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

6.2         Lost,
Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If any Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company and the Warrant
Agent may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their discretion impose (which terms shall, in the case of
a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor and date as the Warrant so
lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company,
whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

6.3         Reservation
of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement.

 

6.4         Registration
of Common Stock. The Company will use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement registering
the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant and ensure that a prospectus is available for delivery to the Warrant
holders until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Except as provided in Section
3.3.2, the Warrants shall not be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue Common Stock unless, at the time a
holder seeks to exercise Warrants, a prospectus related to the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is current and
the Common Stock has been registered or qualified under the laws of the state of residence of the holder of the Warrants or unless
the issuance of the Common Stock is deemed to be exempt from such requirements. In addition, the Company agrees to use its best
efforts to register such securities under the blue sky laws of the states of residence of exercising Warrant holders, if permitted
by the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions, in the event that an exemption is not available.

 

6.5         Limitation
on Monetary Damages. In no event shall the registered holder of a Warrant be entitled to receive monetary damages for failure
to settle any Warrant exercise if the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants has not been registered with the Securities
and Exchange Commission pursuant to an effective registration statement or if a current prospectus is not available for delivery
by the Warrant Agent, provided the Company has fulfilled its obligations under Section 6.4 to use its best efforts to effect the
registration under the Act of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

 

7.           Concerning
the Warrant Agent and Other Matters.

 

7.1         Payment
of Taxes. The Company will from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company or the
Warrant Agent in respect of the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of Warrants, but the Company shall
not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the Warrants or such shares.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

7.2         Resignation,
Consolidation, or Merger of Warrant Agent.

 

7.2.1           Appointment
of Successor Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may resign its duties and be discharged
from all further duties and liabilities hereunder after giving sixty (60) days’ notice in writing to the Company. If the
office of the Warrant Agent becomes vacant by resignation or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company shall appoint in writing
a successor Warrant Agent in place of the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of
30 days after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the Warrant Agent or by the holder of the Warrant
(who shall, with such notice, submit his, her or its Warrant for inspection by the Company), then the holder of any Warrant may
apply to the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York for the appointment of a successor Warrant Agent
at the Company’s cost. Any successor Warrant Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such court, shall be a corporation
organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York, in good standing and having its principal office in the Borough
of Manhattan, City and State of New York, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision
or examination by federal or state authority. After appointment, any successor Warrant Agent shall be vested with all the authority,
powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations of its predecessor Warrant Agent with like effect as if originally named as
Warrant Agent hereunder, without any further act or deed; but if for any reason it becomes necessary or appropriate, the predecessor
Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver, at the expense of the Company, an instrument transferring to such successor Warrant Agent
all the authority, powers, and rights of such predecessor Warrant Agent hereunder; and upon request of any successor Warrant Agent
the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge, and deliver any and all instruments in writing for more fully and effectually vesting
in and confirming to such successor Warrant Agent all such authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations.

 

7.2.2           Notice
of Successor Warrant Agent. In the event a successor Warrant Agent shall be appointed, the Company shall give notice thereof
to the predecessor Warrant Agent and the transfer agent for the Common Stock not later than the effective date of any such appointment.

 

7.2.3           Merger
or Consolidation of Warrant Agent. Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated
or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party shall be the successor
Warrant Agent under this Agreement without any further act.

 

7.3         Fees
and Expenses of Warrant Agent.

 

7.3.1           Remuneration.
The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent reasonable remuneration for its services as such Warrant Agent hereunder and will reimburse
the Warrant Agent upon demand for all expenditures that the Warrant Agent may reasonably incur in the execution of its duties hereunder.

 

7.3.2           Further
Assurances. The Company agrees to perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged
and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent for
the carrying out or performing of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

7.4         Liability
of Warrant Agent.

 

7.4.1           Reliance
on Company Statement. Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Warrant Agreement the Warrant Agent shall deem it
necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action
hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be
conclusively proved and established by a statement signed by the President or Chairman of the Board of the Company and delivered
to the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may rely upon such statement for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it pursuant
to the provisions of this Agreement.

 

7.4.2           Indemnity.
The Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Company agrees
to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments, costs and reasonable
counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement, except as a result of the Warrant
Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

 

7.4.3           Exclusions.
The Warrant Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the validity of this Agreement or with respect to the validity or
execution of any Warrant (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any
covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any Warrant; nor shall it be responsible to make any adjustments required
under the provisions of Section 4 hereof or responsible for the manner, method or amount of any such adjustment or the ascertaining
of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment; nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation
or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any
Warrant or as to whether any shares of Common Stock will when issued be valid and fully paid and nonassessable.

 

7.5           Acceptance
of Agency. The Warrant Agent hereby accepts the agency established by this Agreement and agrees to perform the same upon the
terms and conditions herein set forth and, among other things, shall account promptly to the Company with respect to Warrants exercised
and concurrently account for, and pay to the Company, all moneys received by the Warrant Agent for the purchase of shares of Common
Stock through the exercise of Warrants.

CERTIFICATE WILL BE VOID IF NOT EXERCISED PRIOR

 

TO 5:00
P.M. NEW YORK CITY TIME, [__________]

 

CRYOPORT,
INC.

 

A WARRANT
CERTIFICATE

 

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received,
[_______________] (“Warrantholder”) is the registered holder of [_______] Warrants (the “Warrant”
or “Warrants”) to purchase fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the “Share” or “Shares”), of CRYOPORT, INC., a Nevada corporation
(the “Company”).

 

1.           Terms
and Exercise of A Warrants.

 

(a)          Warrant
Price. Each Warrant shall entitle the registered holder thereof, subject to the provisions of such Warrant, to purchase from
the Company one share of Common Stock at the price of [$_____] per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 2 hereof
and in the last sentence of this Section 1(a). The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Agreement refers
to the price per share at which Common Stock may be purchased at the time the Warrants are exercised. The Company, in its sole
discretion, may by notice to registered holders lower the Warrant Price at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below)
for a specified period of not less than 20 business days.

 

(b)          Duration
of Warrants. The Warrants may be exercised only during the period (“Exercise Period”) commencing
on the date of issuance and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date. For purposes of this Agreement,
the “Expiration Date” shall mean [__________], 2020. Each Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration
Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof shall cease at the close of business on the
Expiration Date. The Company may extend the duration of the Warrants by delaying the Expiration Date; provided, however, that the
Company shall provide notice to registered holders of the Warrants of such extension of not less than 20 days.

 

(c)          Exercise
of Warrants.

 

(i)          Payment.
Subject to the provisions of the Warrants, the Warrants may be exercised by the registered holder thereof by surrendering them
at the Company with the subscription form as set forth herein duly executed and, except where otherwise permitted in accordance
with Section 1(c)(ii), by paying in full in lawful money of the United States by certified check made payable to the Company or
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company (or as otherwise agreed to by the Company),
the Warrant Price for each share of Common Stock as to which the Warrants are exercised and any and all applicable taxes due in
connection with the exercise of the Warrants and the issuance of the Common Stock.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(ii)         Cashless
Exercise. If, and only if, at the time of exercise of the Warrants there is no effective registration statement registering,
or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Common Stock to the Warrantholder, then, and only
then, the Warrants may at the option of the Warrantholder be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless
exercise” in which the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

 

(A) = the VWAP (defined below) on the trading day
immediately preceding the date on which the Warrantholder elects to exercise the Warrants by means of a “cashless exercise,”
as set forth in the applicable subscription form;

 

(B) = the Warrant Price of the Warrants, as adjusted
hereunder; and

 

(X) = the number of shares of Common Stock that would
be issuable upon exercise of the Warrants being exercised in accordance with the terms hereof if such exercise were by means of
a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

“VWAP” means,
for any date, the price per share of Common Stock determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common
Stock is then listed or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ National Market, the NASDAQ
Capital Market or the OTC Bulletin Board (each, a “Trading Market”), the daily volume weighted average
price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then
listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New
York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading or quoted
for trading on a Trading Market and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published
by Pink OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent
bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (c) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock
as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, the fees and expenses
of which shall be paid by the Company.

 

(iii)        Issuance
of Certificates. As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrants and the clearance of the funds in payment of the
Warrant Price, the Company shall issue to the registered holder of such Warrants a certificate or certificates representing the
number of shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him,
her or it, and, if such Warrants shall not have been exercised or surrendered in full, a new countersigned Warrant Certificate
for the number of shares as to which such Warrants shall not have been exercised or surrendered. Subject to Section 5(d) and notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any securities pursuant to the exercise of Warrants unless (a) a registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) with respect to the Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the Warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise
of the Warrants is available for delivery to the Warrant holders, or (b) the exercise of the Warrants is exempt from the registration
requirements of the Act and such securities are qualified for sale or exempt from qualification under applicable securities laws
of the state or other jurisdiction in which the registered holder resides. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued
to, any registered holder in any state in which such exercise or issuance would be unlawful. In the event a registration statement
under the Act with respect to the Common Stock underlying the Warrants is not effective or a prospectus is not available, or because
such exercise would be unlawful with respect to a registered holder in any state, the registered holder shall not be entitled to
exercise such Warrants and such Warrants may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be obligated to pay
such registered holder any cash consideration upon exercise (except pursuant to Section 2(e)). The Company’s counsel
shall deliver any legal opinions required by the transfer agent in connection with the exercise of the Warrants at no cost to the
Warrantholder.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(iv)        Valid
Issuance. All shares of Common Stock issued upon the proper exercise or surrender of the Warrants in conformity with this Agreement
shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

(v)         Date
of Issuance. Each person or entity in whose name any such certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes,
be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which the Warrants were surrendered and payment of
the Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender
and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder
of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

 

(vi)        Exercise
Limitation. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, the Warrantholder shall not be entitled to exercise the
Warrants for a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of that number of shares of Common Stock which, upon giving effect to
such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Warrantholder to exceed 9.99%
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock following such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing proviso, the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Warrantholder shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant with respect to which determination of such proviso is being made, but shall exclude the shares of Common
Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised Warrants beneficially owned by the Warrantholder
and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned
by the Warrantholder subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as
set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 1(c)(vi), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Warrantholder may waive the foregoing limitation
by written notice to the Company upon not less than 61 days prior written notice (such waiver taking effect only upon the expiration
of such 61 day notice period and applying only to the Warrantholder and not to any other holder of Warrants). For purposes of this
Section 1(c)(vi), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Warrantholder may rely on the number
of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may
be, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the date thereof, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company
as to the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, or (3) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Warrantholder, the Company shall within three
trading days confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the Warrantholder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.
In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise
of securities of the Company, including the Warrants, by the Warrantholder since the date as of which such number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock was reported.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

2.           Adjustments.

 

(a)          Stock
Dividends; Stock Splits. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 2(f) below, the number
of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split of shares
of Common Stock, or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, stock split or similar event, the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding
shares of Common Stock.

 

(b)          Aggregation
of Shares. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 2(f) below, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Common
Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification
or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrants shall be decreased in proportion to
such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

 

(c)          Adjustments
in Warrant Price. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted,
as provided in Sections 2(a) and 2(b), the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such
Warrant Price, immediately prior to such adjustment, by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (ii) the denominator of which
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

 

(d)          Extraordinary
Dividends. If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, shall pay a dividend in cash, securities or other assets
to the holders of Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which the Warrants are convertible),
other than (i) as described in Sections 2(a), 2(b) or 2(e), or (ii) regular quarterly or other periodic dividends
(any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant
Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash
and/or the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors, in good faith) of any securities or other
assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend in order that subsequent thereto upon exercise
of the Warrants the Warrantholder may obtain the equivalent benefit of such Extraordinary Dividend.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(e)          Replacement
of Securities upon Reorganization, Etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock (other than a change covered by Sections 2(a) or 2(b) hereof or one that solely affects the par value of such
shares of Common Stock), or, in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification
or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or, in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation
or entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, in connection with which
the Company is dissolved, the Warrants shall thereafter represent the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the
terms and conditions specified in the Warrants and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore
purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other
securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon
a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Warrants holder would have received if such Warrants holder had exercised
his, her or its Warrants immediately prior to such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in shares of Common
Stock covered by Sections 2(a) or 2(b), then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Sections 2(a), 2(b),
2(c) and this Section 2(e). The provisions of this Section 2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers.

 

(f)          Notices
of Changes in Warrants. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants,
the Company shall give written notice thereof to each registered holder, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from
such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of the
Warrants, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Upon
the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 2(a), 2(b), 2(d) or 2(e) the Company shall give written
notice to each Warrants holder, at the last address set forth for such holder in the Warrants register, of the record date or the
effective date of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such
event.

 

(g)          Form
of Warrant. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 2, and Warrants
issued after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of shares as is stated in the Warrants initially
issued pursuant to this Agreement. However, the Company may, at any time, in its sole discretion, make any change in the form of
Warrants that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the rights of holders thereof, and any Warrants thereafter
issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for outstanding Warrants or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(h)          Notice
of Certain Transactions. In the event that the Company shall propose to (i) offer the holders of its Common Stock rights to
subscribe for or to purchase any securities convertible into shares of Common Stock or shares of stock of any class or any other
securities, rights or options, (ii) issue any rights, options or warrants entitling the holders of Common Stock to subscribe for
shares of Common Stock or (iii) make a tender offer or exchange offer with respect to the Common Stock, the Company shall send
to the Warrant holders a notice of such proposed action or offer. Such notice shall be mailed to the registered holders at their
addresses as they appear in the Warrants register, which shall specify the record date for the purposes of such dividend, distribution
or rights, or the date such issuance or event is to take place and the date of participation therein by the holders of Common Stock,
if any such date is to be fixed, and shall briefly indicate the effect of such action on the Common Stock and on the number and
kind of any other shares of stock and on other property, if any, and the number of shares of Common Stock and other property, if
any, issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Warrant Price after giving effect to any adjustment pursuant to this Section
2 which would be required as a result of such action. Such notice shall be given as promptly as practicable after the Company has
determined to take any such action and (x) in the case of any action covered by clause (i) or (ii) above, at least 10 days prior
to the record date for determining the holders of the Common Stock for purposes of such action or (y) in the case of any other
such action, at least 20 days prior to the date of the taking of such proposed action or the date of participation therein by the
holders of Common Stock, whichever shall be the earlier.

 

3.           Transfer
and Exchange of Warrants.

 

(a)          Registration
of Transfer. The Company shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding Warrants into the Warrant register,
upon surrender of such Warrants for transfer, properly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed and accompanied by appropriate
instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, new Warrants representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued
and the old Warrants shall be cancelled by the Company.

 

(b)          Procedure
for Surrender of Warrants. Warrants may be surrendered to the Company, together with a written request for exchange or transfer,
and, thereupon, the Company shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the registered holder of
the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that, in the event the Warrants
surrendered for transfer bear a restrictive legend, the Company shall not cancel such Warrants and issue new Warrants in exchange
therefor until the Company has received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating
whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

 

(c)          Service
Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Warrants.

 

4.           Other
Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

 

(a)          No
Rights as Stockholder. The Warrants do not entitle the registered holder thereof to any of the rights of a stockholder of the
Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends or other distributions, to exercise any preemptive rights,
or to vote, consent or receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of
the Company or any other matter.

 

(b)          Lost,
Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant Certificates. If any Warrant Certificate is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the
Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its discretion impose (which terms shall, in the case of a
mutilated Warrant Certificate, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant Certificate of like denomination, tenor and
date as the Warrant Certificate so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant Certificate shall constitute a substitute
contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant Certificate shall
be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(c)          Reservation
of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(d)          Registration
of Common Stock. The Company will use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement registering
the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant and ensure that a prospectus is available for delivery to the Warrant
holders until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Except as provided in Section
1(c)(ii) of this Warrant Certificate, the Warrants shall not be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue Common
Stock unless, at the time a holder seeks to exercise Warrants, a prospectus related to the Common Stock issuable upon exercise
of the Warrants is current and the Common Stock has been registered or qualified under the laws of the state of residence of the
holder of the Warrants or unless the issuance of the Common Stock is deemed to be exempt from such requirements. In addition, the
Company agrees to use its best efforts to register such securities under the blue sky laws of the states of residence of exercising
Warrant holders, if permitted by the blue sky laws of such jurisdictions, in the event that an exemption is not available.

 

(e)          Notices.
Any notice, statement or demand authorized by this Certificate to be given or made by the Company or by the holder of the Warrants
to or on the Company shall be delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail or overnight courier service, addressed
(until another address is provided in writing by the Company) as follows:

on the next business day of the delivery to the courier, and if sent by registered or certified mail on the third day after registration
or certification thereof.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(f)          Applicable
Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of this Certificate and of the Warrants shall be governed in all respects
by the laws of the State of Nevada, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles. The Company hereby agrees that any
action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way to this Certificate and to the Warrants shall be brought
and enforced in the courts of the State of Nevada or the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, and irrevocably
submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. The Company hereby waives any objection to such exclusive
jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum. Any such process or summons to be served upon the Company may
be served by transmitting a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed
to it at the address set forth in Section 5(e) hereof. Such mailing shall be deemed personal service and shall be legal and binding
upon the Company in any action, proceeding or claim.

other things, the Thermal Spinoff and the Met Spinoff as currently contemplated to be structured, the Thermal Term Loan Facility and the Met Facility and to make certain other changes to the Credit Agreement; 

WHEREAS, PNC Capital Markets LLC is acting as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner for this Amendment; and 

WHEREAS, the contemplated amendments require the consent of the Required Lenders under the Credit Agreement. 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and intending to be
legally bound hereby, covenant and agree as follows: 
 1. Amendments. Effective as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date: 

(a) The Credit Agreement is hereby amended to be as set forth in the conformed copy of the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment
attached as Exhibit B hereto. 
 (b) The Guaranty Agreement is hereby amended by replacing Section 20 thereof in its entirety
with the following: 
 “20. Release of Guarantor. In the event that all of the capital stock or other ownership interests of any
Guarantor is sold or otherwise disposed of or liquidated and, if required, the consent of the Administrative Agent (as contemplated by Section 10.10 [Authorization to Release 

 
Collateral and Guarantors; Certain Amendments] of the Credit Agreement) or the Lenders (as contemplated by Section 11.1.1 [Required Consents] of the Credit Agreement), has been obtained, or
if such Guarantor is to be dissolved as permitted under the Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall, upon consummation of such sale or other disposition, or immediately prior to such dissolution, be released from this Guaranty automatically and
without further action, and this Guaranty shall, as to such Guarantor, terminate and have no further force or effect. Under the circumstances described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) of the proviso in Section 11.1.1(c) [Required
Consents] of the Credit Agreement with respect to a Guarantor, such Guarantor shall be released from this Guaranty automatically and without further action, and this Guaranty shall, as to such Guarantor, terminate and have no further force or
effect; provided that such Guarantor’s guarantees of the Existing Notes and all other Publicly Traded Debt Securities have also been or are concurrently released. In connection with the merger of the Guarantor into another Loan Party, this
Guaranty will be assumed (as a matter of law) by such other Loan Party and will, together with any Guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations by such other Loan Party, constitute a single Guaranty.” 

(c) The following schedule to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in the form attached hereto with the corresponding schedule
number: 
  

	 	(i)	Schedule 8.2.8 

 (d) Schedule 8.2.4 to the Credit Agreement is hereby redesignated as Schedule

2. REVOLVING CREDIT AND SWING LOAN FACILITIES 
  

	 	2.1	Commitments. 

  

	 	2.1.1	Revolving Credit Loans. 

 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon
the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof to the Expiration Date; provided that after giving
effect to each such Loan, (i) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) the Revolving Facility Usage shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the Borrowing Base and
(b) the Revolving Credit Commitments, and (iii) the aggregate amount of Indebtedness under this Agreement shall not exceed the Applicable Notes Indenture Cap; provided, further, that (x) at the Administrative
Agent’s request, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent calculations and supporting information reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing compliance with clause (iii) and (y) notwithstanding the
foregoing clause (x), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request such calculation or information or to determine compliance with clause (iii), and shall be fully entitled to assume (without any further investigation) that each
borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans complies with clause (iii) if the Borrower makes a Loan Request for such borrowing. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay
and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.1 [Revolving Credit Loans]. 
  

	 	2.1.2	Swing Loans. 

 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the
representations and warranties herein set forth, and in order to facilitate loans and repayments between Settlement Dates, PNC 

  
 -59- 

 
may, at its option, cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make swing loans (the “Swing Loans”) to the Borrower at any time or from time to time after the date hereof
to, but not including, the Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of the Swingline Cap; provided that the Revolving Facility Usage shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (a) the Borrowing Base and
(b) the Revolving Credit Commitments. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loans]. 

 

	 	2.2	Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans. 

 Each
Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable Share. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to
perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to
make Revolving Credit Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date. 
  

	 	2.3	Commitment Fees. 

 Accruing from the date hereof until the Expiration Date, the Borrower
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, as consideration for such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable
Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) on the average daily difference between the amount of (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment as the same may be
constituted from time to time and (b) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure (for purposes of this computation, Swing Loans shall not be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Revolving Credit Commitment); provided, however, that
any Commitment Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such
Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no Commitment Fee shall accrue with respect to the
Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Subject to the proviso in the directly preceding sentence, all Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date. 

 

	 	2.4	Voluntary Commitment Reduction. 

 The Borrower shall have the right any time and from
time to time, without premium or penalty, upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written, irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent to permanently reduce, in whole multiples of $5,000,000, or terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments;
provided that any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied by (a) the payment in full of any Commitment Fee then accrued on the amount of such reduction or termination and (b) the prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans,
together with the full amount of interest accrued on the principal sum to be prepaid (and all amounts referred to in Section 5.9 [Indemnity] hereof), to the extent that the Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment as so
reduced or terminated; and provided further that the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced below the Revolving Facility Usage. Each reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall ratably reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of
the Lenders. From the effective date of any such reduction or termination, the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.3 [Commitment Fees] shall correspondingly be reduced or cease. 

  
 -60- 

	 	2.5	Loan Requests. 

  

	 	2.5.1	Revolving Credit Loan Requests. 

 Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may
from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans, or renew or convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], by
delivering to the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies or the
conversion to or the renewal of the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans; and (ii) the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies or the last day of
the preceding Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan, of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5.1 or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing
in such form and delivered by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format) (each, a “Loan Request”); it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making
such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify or certify, as applicable (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the
proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche, which amount shall be in (x) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche under the LIBOR Rate Option and (y) an integral multiple of $50,000
and not less than the lesser of $500,000 or the maximum amount available for Borrowing Tranches to which the Base Rate Option applies; (iii) whether the LIBOR Rate Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the
applicable Borrowing Tranche; and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing Tranche to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche. 

 

	 	2.5.2	Swing Loan Requests. 

 Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time
to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Swingline Lender to make Swing Loans by delivery to the Swingline Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed Borrowing Date of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of
Exhibit 2.5.2 hereto or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing in such form and delivered by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format) (each, a “Swing Loan Request”); it being
understood that the Swingline Lender may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Swing Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the
proposed Borrowing Date and the principal amount of such Swing Loan, which shall be in integral multiples of $50,000 and shall be not less than $100,000. 
  

	 	2.6	Making and Repayment of Loans. 

  

	 	2.6.1	Making Revolving Credit Loans. 

 The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt
by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information provided by the Borrower and the apportionment among the Lenders of the
requested Revolving Credit Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each
Revolving Credit Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 7.2 [Each
Additional Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at 

  
 -61- 

 
the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the
Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.6.2 [Presumptions by
the Administrative Agent]. 
  

	 	2.6.2	Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. 

 Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from a Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. on the proposed date of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.6.1 [Making Revolving Credit Loans] and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact
made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each
day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds
Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans under the
Base Rate Option. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower
may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
  

	 	2.6.3	Making Swing Loans. 

 So long as the Swingline Lender elects to make Swing Loans, the
Swingline Lender shall, after receipt by it of a Swing Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5.2 [Swing Loan Requests], fund such Swing Loan to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 3:00 p.m.
on the Borrowing Date. 
  

	 	2.6.4	Repayment of Loans. 

 The Borrower shall repay all Loans together with all outstanding
interest thereon on the Expiration Date. 
  

	 	2.7	Notes. 

  

	 	2.7.1	Revolving Credit Notes. 

 If requested by any Lender, the obligation of the Borrower to
repay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to it by such Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of such Lender in a face amount equal to the
Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender. The Revolving Credit Loans shall mature, and the Borrower unconditionally agrees to pay in full the unpaid principal amount and all amounts outstanding and unpaid in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans
to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, on the Expiration Date. 

  
 -62- 

	 	2.7.2	Swing Loan Note. 

 The obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount
of the Swing Loans made to it by the Swingline Lender together with interest thereon shall be evidenced by a Swing Loan Note payable to the order of the Swingline Lender in a face amount equal to the Swingline Cap. 

 

	 	2.8	Use of Proceeds. 

 The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans will be used in accordance
with Section 8.1.11 [Use of Proceeds]. 
  

	 	2.9	Borrowing Base. 

 (a) During the period from the Closing Date to the date of the initial
determination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.9 [Borrowing Base], the amount of the Borrowing Base shall be $2,000,000,000. 

(b) Upon each delivery of a Reserve Report pursuant to Section 8.3.8 [Reserve Reports], together with such engineering and other data
from the Borrower as is customarily provided, the Syndication Agent shall, within a reasonable period of time, make a good faith determination of the proposed Borrowing Base, and promptly thereafter the Administrative Agent will propose by notice in
writing to the Lenders such Borrowing Base for acceptance by (i) the Required Borrowing Base Lenders with respect to any reaffirmations or reductions in the Borrowing Base and (ii) the Required Increasing Borrowing Base Lenders with
respect to any increases in the Borrowing Base. If such Borrowing Base, as proposed by the Administrative Agent is accepted by the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders, then such accepted Borrowing Base shall be communicated by the Administrative Agent
to the Borrower on or before 30 days following the date of delivery of such Reserve Report (the “Applicable Date”); provided that if such proposed Borrowing Base is not approved by the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders prior
to the Applicable Date, then the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders will establish and agree to a Borrowing Base established using criteria agreed upon by the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders, and such amount will be communicated to the Borrower,
within 30 days following the Applicable Date. Any Lender that shall fail to reject the proposed Borrowing Base within fifteen (15) days of notice of the proposed Borrowing Base shall be deemed to have approved the proposed amount of such
Borrowing Base. The new Borrowing Base shall become effective as of the date that the Borrower receives notification from the Administrative Agent of the new Borrowing Base, and until that time, the old Borrowing Base shall continue to be in effect.
The Borrowing Base, as determined and established pursuant to this Section 2.9 [Borrowing Base] shall be subject, at all times, to the redetermination or adjustment of the then effective Borrowing Base as a result of a redetermination of the
Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.9(c) or 2.9(d) [Borrowing Base] or an adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 8.2.13(e) [Sale of Proved Reserves; Pooling]. 

(c) Not more than once in any fiscal year, the Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Required Borrowing Base Lenders, may request
from the Borrower an Alternate Reserve Report for the purpose of redetermining the Borrowing Base, and not more than twice in any fiscal year, the Borrower shall have the right to request a redetermination of the Borrowing Base by sending a written
notice to the Administrative Agent of such request along with an Alternate Reserve Report. In connection with any redetermination of the Borrowing Base related to a delivery of an Alternate Reserve Report, the Syndication Agent shall make a good
faith determination, in a reasonably prompt manner, of a new Borrowing Base, and the Administrative Agent shall propose by notice in writing, in a reasonably prompt manner, such new Borrowing Base to the Lenders, and the Applicable Borrowing Base
Lenders shall agree to review in a reasonably prompt manner, and (if acceptable) approve a new Borrowing Base, 

  
 -63- 

 
which shall become effective upon receipt by the Borrower of notice of such new Borrowing Base. Any Lender that shall fail to reject the proposed Borrowing Base within fifteen (15) days of
notice of the proposed Borrowing Base shall be deemed to have approved the proposed amount of such Borrowing Base. In connection with any such redetermination of the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall deliver promptly upon the request of the
Administrative Agent an Alternate Reserve Report to the Administrative Agent; provided that the Borrower’s failure to deliver such Alternate Reserve Report shall not preclude or impact the making of such redetermination of the Borrowing
Base by the Administrative Agent or the approval of such Borrowing Base by the Applicable Borrowing Base Lenders. 
 (d) At the request of
the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders, in their sole discretion, the Borrowing Base shall be adjusted in conformity with Section 2.9(c) [Borrowing Base] contemporaneously with (i) the sale,
transfer, lease, contribution or other conveyance in one or more transactions after the date of the latest redetermination or adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Agreement by any Loan Party to one or more Persons (other than another
Loan Party), of Proved Reserves with an aggregate value exceeding 5% of the Borrowing Base then in effect (whether directly or indirectly by means of the sale of equity interests in a Loan Party or otherwise) pursuant to Section 8.2.13(e) [Sale
of Proved Reserves; Pooling] and (ii) the early monetization or early termination of any Swap Agreements relied on by the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Lenders in determining the Borrowing Base that has an economic value
exceeding five percent (5%) of the Borrowing Base then in effect. 
 (e) The Borrowing Base shall represent the good faith
determination by the Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent, of the loan value of the Borrowing Base Properties based upon, among other things, information contained in the Reserve Report and in accordance with the applicable definitions and
provisions herein contained, the Syndication Agent’s standard policies regarding energy lending, industry lending practices, and consideration for the nature of the facilities established hereunder. The Borrower acknowledges that the
determination of the Borrowing Base contains an equity cushion (market value in excess of the value of all Indebtedness of the Loan Parties), which is acknowledged by the Borrower to be essential for the adequate protection of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders. 
 (f) Unless otherwise waived in writing by the Required Lenders, upon the issuance of any Permitted Unsecured
Notes in accordance with Section 8.2.1(m)(x) [Indebtedness] (other than any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof), the Borrowing Base then in effect shall automatically be reduced by $0.25 for each $1.00 in stated principal amount of
such Permitted Unsecured Notes on the date such Permitted Unsecured Notes are issued. 
  

	 	2.10	Letters of Credit. 

  

	 	2.10.1	Issuance of Letters of Credit. 

 (a) The Borrower or any Loan Party may at any time
prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date request the issuance of a letter of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”), for its own account or the account of another Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof (other than (i) after the
Met Spinoff, the Met Public Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) after the Thermal Spinoff, the Thermal Public Company or any of its Subsidiaries), or the amendment or extension of an existing Letter of Credit, by delivering or
transmitting by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format), or having such other Loan Party or such Subsidiary deliver or transmit by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format) to an
Issuing Lender selected by the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a completed application for letter of credit, or request for such amendment or extension, as applicable, in such form as such Issuing Lender may specify from time to
time by no later than 10:00 a.m. at least five (5) Business 

  
 -64- 

 
Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The Borrower or any Loan Party shall authorize and direct each Issuing Lender
to name the Borrower or such other Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof as the “Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit. Promptly after receipt of any letter of credit application, such Issuing Lender shall confirm
with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit application and if not, such Issuing Lender will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Letters of
Credit may be issued in the form of a Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit. Letters of Credit shall be issued only in U.S. Dollars. For the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties acknowledge that each Letter of Credit issued for
the account of Persons other than the Loan Parties (even though the Borrower is a co-applicant thereon) shall constitute an Investment and Guaranty in an amount equal to the face amount of such Letter of Credit, without duplication, and shall be
subject to the limitations set forth herein. 
 (b) Unless an Issuing Lender has received notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent
or any Loan Party, at least one day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of
Credit] is not satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.10 [Letters of Credit], such Issuing Lender or any of such Issuing Lender’s
Affiliates will issue the proposed Letter of Credit or agree to such amendment or extension; provided that after giving effect thereto: 

(i) no Letter of Credit shall expire later than the earlier of (x) subject to Section 2.10.1(c) [Issuance of Letters
of Credit], twelve (12) months from the date of issuance or extension, unless the applicable Issuing Lender agrees, and (y) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless the applicable Issuing Lender agrees and the Borrower complies with
the requirements of Section 2.10.10 [Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date]; and 
 (ii) in no event shall
(x) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations exceed the Letter of Credit Aggregate Sublimit at any one time outstanding, (y) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit issued and
outstanding by any Issuing Lender exceed its Letter of Credit Issuing Lender Sublimit at any one time or (z) the Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments. 

Each request for the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that it shall be in
compliance with the preceding sentence and with Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after its delivery of
any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 

(c) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable request for a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender may, in its discretion, agree to issue a
Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at
least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such
twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an
Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have 

  
 -65- 

 
authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided,
however, that the Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it
has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such
extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] is not then satisfied, and in each such case
directing the Issuing Lender not to permit such extension. 
 (d) Notwithstanding Section 2.10.1(a) [Issuance of Letters of Credit],
no Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Official Body or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing the Letter
of Credit, or any Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Official Body with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender
refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing
Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Lender in good
faith deems material to it, or (ii) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally. 

(e) On the Closing Date, the outstanding Letters of Credit previously issued by PNC as an “Issuing Lender” under the Existing
Credit Agreements that are set forth on Schedule 2.10.1 (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) will automatically, without any action on the part of any Person, be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder for the
account of the Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 (f) Designation Transactions. 

(i) Upon consummation of the Met Facility, each outstanding Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Met Facility Party
shall be Cash Collateralized pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender or, if agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender, be deemed to have been issued under the Met Facility or another credit facility or a
letter of credit facility. 
 (ii) Upon consummation of the Met Spinoff, each outstanding Letter of Credit issued for the
account of the Met Public Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be Cash Collateralized pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender or, if agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender, be deemed to have been
issued under the Met Facility or another credit facility or a letter of credit facility. 
 (iii) Upon consummation of the
Thermal Spinoff, each outstanding Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Thermal Public Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be Cash Collateralized pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender or, if
agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender, be deemed to have been issued under another credit facility or a letter of credit facility. 

  
 -66- 

 (iv) Upon consummation of the Alternative Coal Spinoff, each outstanding Letter
of Credit issued for the account of the Alternative Coal Holding Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be Cash Collateralized pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender or, if agreed to by the applicable
Issuing Lender, be deemed to have been issued under another credit facility or a letter of credit facility. 
  

	 	2.10.2	Letter of Credit Fees. 

 The Borrower shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for
the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate on the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit, and (ii) to each Issuing Lender for
its own account a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum on the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender. All Letter of Credit Fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 360 days and actual days elapsed and shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date following issuance of each Letter of Credit; provided, however, that fronting fees on commercial or trade Letters of Credit shall be payable at the time
of issuance. The Borrower shall also pay to each Issuing Lender for such Issuing Lender’s sole account such Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit issued by
such Issuing Lender as such Issuing Lender may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, extension, renewal, amendment (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of
Letters of Credit. 
  

	 	2.10.3	Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement. 

 (a) Immediately upon the issuance of
each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such
Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively. 

(b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the applicable Issuing
Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall sometimes be referred to as a
“Reimbursement Obligation”) such Issuing Lender prior to 12:00 noon on the next Business Day following each date that an amount is paid by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Reimbursement
Date”) by paying to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender an amount equal to the amount so paid by such Issuing Lender plus interest at the interest rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option from the date
on which the amount was paid by such Issuing Lender to the date such Issuing Lender is reimbursed, unless otherwise required by the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse such Issuing Lender
(through the Administrative Agent) for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon on the Reimbursement Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have
requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made by the Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Reimbursement Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment and
subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10.3(b)
[Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursements] may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

  
 -67- 

 (c) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.10.3(b) make available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to this Section 2.10.3
[Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement]) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Issuing Lender the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Reimbursement Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the
Reimbursement Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days following the Reimbursement Date and (ii) at a rate per annum
equal to the rate applicable to Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Reimbursement Date. The Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender will promptly give notice (as described in
Section 2.10.3(b) [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursements] above) of the occurrence of the Reimbursement Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender to give any such notice on the Reimbursement Date or in
sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 2.10.3(c) [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursements]. 

(d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in
whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.10.3(b) [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursements], because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit]
other than any notice requirements, or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Lender a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing. Such
Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10.3 [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement] shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing (each,
a “Participation Advance”) from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.10.3 [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursements]. 

 

	 	2.10.4	Repayment of Participation Advances. 

 (a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the
Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Lender of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a
Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by such Issuing Lender under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Issuing Lender will pay to each Lender, in
the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of the Ratable Share of such
funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by such Issuing Lender. 
 (b) If an Issuing
Lender or the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of any payment made by any Loan Party to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section in reimbursement of a payment made under any Letter of Credit or interest or fees thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing
Lender, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date
such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time. 

  
 -68- 

	 	2.10.5	Documentation. 

 Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of each Issuing
Lender’s Issuer Documents and written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between an Issuer Document and this
Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, no Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission,
in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto. 
  

	 	2.10.6	Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests. 

 In determining whether to honor any request
for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and
that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. 
  

	 	2.10.7	Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. 

 Each Lender’s obligation
in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Credit Loans or Participation Advances, as contemplated by Section 2.10.3 [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement] and the Obligations of the Borrower to reimburse each respective
Issuing Lender upon a draw under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10 [Letters of Credit] under all circumstances, including the
following circumstances: 
 (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have
against the applicable Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, or which any Loan Party may have against the applicable Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates, any Lender or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever; 
 (b) with respect to Letters of Credit, the failure of any Loan Party or any other Person
to comply, in connection with a Letter of Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set forth in Section 2.1 [Commitments], Section 2.5 [Loan Requests], Section 2.6 [Making and Repayment of Loans] or Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan
or Letter of Credit] or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement for the making of a Revolving Credit Loan, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not required for the making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the Lenders
to make Participation Advances under Section 2.10.3 [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement]; 
 (c) any lack of
validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit; 
 (d) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by any Loan
Party or any Lender against any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which any Loan Party or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary,
successor beneficiary any transferee or assignee of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender or its Affiliates or any Lender or any other Person or, whether in

  
 -69- 

 
connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party and
the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured); 
 (e) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any
defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) or the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under or in connection with
any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provisions of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if such Issuing Lender or any of such Issuing
Lender’s Affiliates has been notified thereof; 
 (f) payment by such Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates under any
Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 

(g) the solvency of, or any acts or omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other Person having a role in
any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic of any property or services relating to a Letter of Credit; 

(h) any failure by such Issuing Lender or any of such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in the
form requested by any Loan Party, unless such Issuing Lender has received written notice from such Loan Party of such failure within three (3) Business Days after such Issuing Lender shall have furnished such Loan Party and the Administrative
Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice; 

(i) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

(m) the fact that the Expiration Date shall have passed or this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder shall have been
terminated; and 
 (n) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 

 

	 	2.10.8	Indemnity. 

 The Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless
each Issuing Lender and any of its Affiliates that has issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable
fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel) which such Issuing Lender or any of 

  
 -70- 

 
such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit issued by it, other than as a result of the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
  

	 	2.10.9	Liability for Acts and Omissions. 

 (a) As between any Loan Party and an Issuing Lender,
or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, no Issuing Lender shall be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal
effect of any document (including all sight drafts, certificates and all other instruments) submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all
respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the
beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any
beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or
delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in
order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any
consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, as applicable, including any acts of any Official Body, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any
of such Issuing Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Issuing Lender from liability for such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall any Issuing Lender or any Issuing Lender’s Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect,
consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit. 

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Issuing Lender and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other
communication believed in good faith by such Issuing Lender or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their
face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or
compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by such Issuing Lender or its Affiliate;
(iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and
shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or
practices 

  
 -71- 

 
of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on such Issuing Lender or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the
applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each, an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject to
such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions
set forth above, any action taken or omitted by such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it, the Issuer Documents or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder,
if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender, unless such action taken or omitted is found in a final and nonappealable
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  

	 	2.10.10	Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date. 

 If the Borrower or any other Loan Party
requests the issuance, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit and such Letter of Credit would have an expiration date which is after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend or renew such
Letter of Credit, but may elect to do so if the requirements of this Section 2.10.10 [Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date] are satisfied. The Borrower shall, on or before the issuance, extension or renewal of such Letter of Credit,
deposit and pledge Cash Collateral for each such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of the face value of such outstanding Letter of Credit plus the amount of fees that would be due under such Letter of Credit through the expiry date of such
Letter of Credit. Such Cash Collateral shall be deposited pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender and the Borrower and shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts at such Issuing
Lender. The Borrower hereby grants to the applicable Issuing Lender a security interest in all Cash Collateral pledged to such Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section or otherwise under this Agreement. The Cash Collateral related to a particular
Letter of Credit shall be released by the applicable Issuing Lender upon termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit and the reimbursement by the Loan Parties of all amounts drawn thereon and the payment in full of all fees accrued thereon
through the date of such expiration or termination. After the Expiration Date, the Borrower shall pay any and all fees associated with any such Letter of Credit with an expiration date that extends beyond the Expiration Date directly to the
applicable Issuing Lender. 
  

	 	2.10.11	Issuing Lender Reporting Requirements. 

 Each Issuing Lender shall, on the first
Business Day of each month, provide to Administrative Agent and Borrower a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, the account
party, the original face amount (if any), and the expiration date of any Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during the preceding month, and any other information relating to such Letter of Credit that the Administrative Agent may request. 

 

	 	2.11	Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans. 

 The Swingline Lender may, at its option, exercisable
at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans,
plus, if the Swingline Lender so requests, accrued interest thereon; provided that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of the amount that would cause its Revolving Exposure to exceed its
Revolving Credit Commitment. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant 

  
 -72- 

 
to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests]
without regard to any of the requirements of that provision. The Administrative Agent on behalf of the Swingline Lender shall provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or email (in “pdf,”
“tif” or similar format)) no later than 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.11 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans] and of the apportionment among the Lenders, and the
Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] or Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] are then satisfied) to the
Administrative Agent on behalf of the Swingline Lender, no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date. 
  

	 	2.12	Increase in Revolving Credit Commitments. 

 (a) Increasing Lenders and New
Lenders. The Borrower may, prior to the Expiration Date, request that (1) the current Lenders (each, a “Current Lender”) increase their Revolving Credit Commitments (any Current Lender which elects to increase its Revolving
Credit Commitment shall be referred to as an “Increasing Lender”) and/or (2) one or more new lenders (each, a “New Lender”) join this Agreement and provide a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, subject to
the following terms and conditions: 
 (i) No Obligation to Increase. No Current Lender shall be obligated to increase
its Revolving Credit Commitment, and any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Current Lender shall be in the sole discretion of such Current Lender; 

(ii) Defaults. There shall exist no Event of Default or Potential Default on the effective date of such increase and
after giving effect to such increase; 
 (iii) Increase in and Aggregate Amount of Revolving Credit Commitments. The
amount of the increase in Revolving Credit Commitments is at least $100,000,000, and after giving effect to such increase, shall not exceed the Maximum Facility Amount without the consent of all Lenders; 

(iv) Resolutions; Opinion; Mortgage Amendments. The Loan Parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent on or before
the effective date of such increase the following documents in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent: (1) certifications of their corporate secretaries with attached resolutions certifying that the increase in the Revolving
Credit Commitments has been approved by the Loan Parties, (2) opinions of counsel, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders addressing the authorization, execution and enforceability of the Loan Documents executed in connection
with such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, and (3) amendments to the Mortgages executed and delivered by the applicable Loan Parties to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to reflect the increase in
Revolving Credit Commitments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, together with, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders providing the increase in Revolving Credit Commitments, local
counsel opinions regarding the due authorization, execution, delivery, and enforceability of such mortgage amendments. The Loan Parties shall cause the amendments described in clause (3) to be properly recorded and/or filed in the applicable
filing or recording offices. 
 (v) Notes. The Borrower shall execute and deliver (1) to each Increasing Lender
that requests a Revolving Credit Note a replacement Revolving Credit Note reflecting the new amount of such Increasing Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect to the increase 

  
 -73- 

 
(and the prior Note issued to such Increasing Lender shall be deemed to be canceled and shall be returned to the Borrower as soon as practicable), and (2) to each New Lender that requests a
Revolving Credit Note, a Revolving Credit Note reflecting the amount of such New Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; 

(vi) Approval of New Lenders. Any New Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; 
 (vii)
Increasing Lenders. Each Increasing Lender shall confirm its agreement to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to an acknowledgement in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent, signed by it and the Borrower and delivered to
the Administrative Agent before the effective date of such increase; and 
 (viii) New Lender Joinder. Each New Lender
shall execute a New Lender Joinder pursuant to which such New Lender shall join and become a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with a Revolving Credit Commitment in the amount set forth in such New Lender Joinder. 

(b) Syndication. In the event that the Borrower elects to request an increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent agree to mutually develop a syndication strategy, including timelines for commitments. 
 (c)
Treatment of Outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit. 
 (i) Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New
Loans. On the effective date of such increase, the Borrower shall (x) repay the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding to each of the Current Lenders to the extent necessary so that after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving
Credit Commitments each Current Lender will have its Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, subject to the Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] and (y) borrow Revolving Credit Loans from
Increasing Lenders and New Lenders to the extent necessary so that after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, each such Lender will have its Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. To facilitate the
foregoing, the Borrower may, subject to its compliance with the other terms of this Agreement, borrow new Loans on the effective date of such increase. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to update Schedule 1.1(B) to reflect the
increase in Revolving Credit Commitments. 
 (ii) Outstanding Letters of Credit; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing
of New Loans. On the effective date of such increase, (a) each Current Lender shall be deemed to have sold its existing participation in each then outstanding Letter of Credit and purchased a participation in each then outstanding Letter of
Credit equal to its Ratable Share of such Letters of Credit, and (b) each New Lender will be deemed to have purchased a participation in each then outstanding Letter of Credit equal to its Ratable Share of such Letter of Credit. All fees shall
accrue and be paid on the Letters of Credit based upon each Lender’s participation therein over the relevant period of time. To the extent necessary to enable each of the Current Lenders and the New Lenders to own a Ratable Share of the
Participation Advances after any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, (a) the Current Lenders will sell a portion of its Participation Advances, and (b) the New Lenders and the Increasing Lenders will acquire Participation
Advances (and will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each selling Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount) equal to its Ratable Share of all outstanding Participation Advances. All fees and interest on Participation
Advances shall be allocated based upon each Lender’s ownership therein from time to time. 

  
 -74- 

	 	2.13	Defaulting Lenders. 

 (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(i) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.3 [Commitment Fees]; 
 (ii) the Commitment and outstanding Loans 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 11.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers]);
provided, that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each Lender directly affected thereby; 

(iii) if any Swing Loans are outstanding or any Letter of Credit Obligations exist at the time such Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then: 
 (A) all or any part of the outstanding Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of such
Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares but only to the extent that (x) the Revolving Facility Usage does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting
Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments, and (y) no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time; 

(B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall
within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Loans, and (y) second, Cash Collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders (ratably among the Issuing Lenders) the
Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) in a deposit account held at the Administrative Agent for so
long as such Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding; 
 (C) if the Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such
Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to clause (B) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] with respect to such
Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations are cash collateralized; 

(D) if the Letter of Credit Obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (A) above, then
the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Ratable Share; and 

  
 -75- 

 (E) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit
Obligations are neither reallocated nor Cash Collateralized pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit Fees payable under
Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders ((ratably among them) and not to such Defaulting Lender) until and to the extent that such
Letter of Credit Obligations are reallocated and/or Cash Collateralized; and 
 (iv) so long as such Lender
is a Defaulting Lender, (x) no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Lender is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of
Credit Obligations will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.13(a)(iii)(B)
[Defaulting Lenders], and (y) participating interests in any newly made Swing Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.13(a)(iii)(A) (and
such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 
 (b) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline
Lender and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, and the Ratable Share of
the Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than
Swing Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Ratable Share. 

3. RESERVED 
 4. INTEREST RATES

  

	 	4.1	Interest Rate Options. 

 The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding
unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different
Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans
comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that (i) there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans and (ii) if an Event of Default or Potential
Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be
converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by
any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate. 

  
 -76- 

	 	4.1.1	Interest Rate Options; Swing Line Interest Rate. 

 (a) The Borrower shall have the right
to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans: 
 (i) Revolving Credit Base
Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time
to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or 
 (ii) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate
Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the LIBOR Rate as determined for each applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) Subject to Section 4.3 [Interest After Default], only the Base Rate Option applicable to Revolving Credit Loans shall apply to Swing
Loans. 
  

	 	4.1.2	Rate Quotations. 

 The Borrower may call the Administrative Agent on or before the date
on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which
thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made. 
  

	 	4.2	Interest Periods. 

 At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a
LIBOR Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such LIBOR Rate Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall specify an Interest Period
during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a LIBOR Rate Option: 

(a) Each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000 and not less than
$5,000,000; and 
 (b) In the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of
the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day. 
  

	 	4.3	Interest After Default. 

 To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, and upon written demand by the Required Lenders to the Administrative Agent: 

(a) the Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.10.2
[Letter of Credit Fees] or Section 4.1 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall be increased by 2.0% per annum; and 

  
 -77- 

 (b) each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full. 

The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 4.3 [Interest After Default] reflects, among other
things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon
demand by Administrative Agent. 
  

	 	4.4	LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. 

  

	 	4.4.1	Unascertainable. 

 If on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise be determined,
the Administrative Agent shall have determined that: 
 (a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such
LIBOR Rate, or 
 (b) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the Relevant Interbank Market
relating to the LIBOR Rate, 
 the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s
Rights]. 
  

	 	4.4.2	Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. 

 If at any time any
Lender shall have determined that: 
 (a) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies
has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the
force of Law), or 
 (b) such LIBOR Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the
establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or 
 (c) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount
in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

 then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights]. 

 

	 	4.4.3	Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. 

 In the case of any event
specified in Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event 

  
 -78- 

 
specified in Section 4.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice
as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be
earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to
select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or such
Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the
Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of,
conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 4.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], the
Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 5.9 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such Loan to the
Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 5.6 [Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the
Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date. 
  

	 	4.5	Selection of Interest Rate Options. 

 If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest
Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], the
Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period. 

5. PAYMENTS 
  

	 	5.1	Payments. 

 All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest,
Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Administrative Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all
of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Principal
Office for the account of PNC with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds; provided that in the event payments are received by 1:00 p.m. by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on
the same day received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Lenders interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the Administrative Agent and not
distributed to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and
interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an “account stated.” 

  
 -79- 

	 	5.2	Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders. 

 Each Borrowing Tranche shall be allocated to each
Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other
fees (except for the Administrative Agent’s Fee and the fees payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees]) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit
Commitments and the Loans, shall (except as otherwise may be provided with respect to a Defaulting Lender and except as provided in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in
Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or Section 5.7 [Increased Costs]) be payable ratably among the Lenders entitled to such payment in
accordance with the amount of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, and other fees or amounts then due to such Lender as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or payment or
prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC according to Section 2.11 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans]. 

 

	 	5.3	Sharing of Payments by Lenders. 

 If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of
setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations
hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than the pro rata share of the amount such Lender is entitled thereto,
then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such
other adjustments as shall be equitable, 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 and other amounts owing
them, 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, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or
the holder making such purchase; and 
 (ii) the provisions of this Section 5.3 shall not be construed to apply to
(x) any payment made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its
Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 5.3 [Sharing of Payments by Lenders] shall apply). 

Each Loan Party 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 each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of
such participation. 

  
 -80- 

	 	5.4	Presumptions by Administrative Agent. 

 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 or the Issuing Lender hereunder 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 or the Issuing Lender, 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 or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing 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 greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent
in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
  

	 	5.5	Interest Payment Dates. 

 Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall
be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date. Interest on Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three
(3) Months, also on each date that falls every three (3) Months after the beginning of such Interest Period. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal
amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated Expiration Date, upon acceleration or otherwise). 
  

	 	5.6	Prepayments. 

  

	 	5.6.1	Right to Prepay. 

 The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to
prepay the Loans in whole or part, without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] below, in Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] and Section 5.9 [Indemnity]). Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay
any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies or no later
than 11:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans and Revolving Credit Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, setting forth the following information: 

(a) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made; 

(b) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans; 

(c) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies and Loans to
which the LIBOR Rate Option applies; and 
 (d) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than
the lesser of (x) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans or (y) $100,000 for any Swing Loan or $5,000,000 for any Revolving Credit Loan and increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. 

  
 -81- 

 All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a
prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Except as provided in
Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied (i) first to Swing
Loans and then to Revolving Credit Loans; and (ii) after giving effect to the allocations in clause (i) above first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies. Any prepayment
hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 5.9 [Indemnity]. 
  

	 	5.6.2	Replacement of a Lender. 

 In the event any Lender (a) gives notice under
Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], (b) requests compensation under Section 5.7 [Increased Costs], or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount
to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes], (c) is a Defaulting Lender, or (d) is a Non-Consenting Lender referred to in Section 11.1.3 [Non-Consenting Lenders], then in any
such event the Borrower may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, either: 
 (a)
prepay the Loans and Participation Advances of such Lender in whole, together with all interest accrued thereon and any accrued fees and all other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts
under Section 5.9 [Indemnity]), and terminate such Lender’s Commitment; or 
 (b) at its sole expense, require such
Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.8 [Successors and Assigns]), all of its interests, rights (other than existing rights to
payments pursuant to Sections 5.7 [Increased Costs] or 5.8 [Taxes]) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment), provided that: 
 (i) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the
assignment fee specified in Section 11.8.2(d) [Assignment and Assumption Agreement]; 
 (ii) such Lender shall have
received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts
under Section 5.9 [Indemnity]) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.7.1 [Increased Costs
Generally] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes], such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and 

  
 -82- 

 (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law. 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Lender agrees that, if the Borrower elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender], it shall
promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Note (if Notes have been issued in respect of such Lender’s Loans)
subject to such Assignment and Assumption Agreement; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall not render such assignment invalid, and such assignment shall be recorded in the
register if all other requirements of such assignments have been satisfied. 
  

	 	5.6.3	Designation of a Different Lending Office. 

 If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 5.7 [Increased Costs], or the Borrower is or will be required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes], then such Lender
shall (at the request of the Borrower) 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 5.7 [Increased Costs] or Section 5.8 [Taxes], as the case may be, in the future, and
(ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially 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. 
  

	 	5.6.4	Mandatory Prepayments. 

 (a) If at any time the Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the
Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall take one or more of the actions required by Section 5.11 [Borrowing Base Deficiency], which may include making mandatory prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans. 

(b) If at any time the Revolving Facility Usage is in excess of the Revolving Credit Commitments (as used in this Section 5.6.4(b)
[Mandatory Prepayments], a “deficiency”), the Borrower shall immediately make a principal payment on the Loans sufficient to cause the principal balance of the Loans then outstanding to be equal to or less than the Revolving Credit
Commitments then in effect. If a deficiency cannot be eliminated pursuant to this Section 5.6.4(b) [Mandatory Prepayments] by prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans as a result of outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, the Borrower shall
also deposit cash collateral with the Administrative Agent, to be held by the Administrative Agent to secure such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations. 

(c) In the event a Borrowing Base Deficiency occurs as a result of a reduction in the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.9(f)
[Borrowing Base] upon an issuance of Permitted Unsecured Notes, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and after all Loans are repaid in full, shall Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is
eliminated) on the date of consummation of such issuance of Permitted Unsecured Notes, to the extent necessary to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency. 

(d) All prepayments required pursuant to this Section 5.6.4 [Mandatory Prepayments] shall first be applied among the Interest Rate
Options to the principal amount of the Loans subject 

  
 -83- 

 
to the Base Rate Option, then to Loans subject to a LIBOR Rate Option. In accordance with Section 5.9 [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any loss or expense, including
loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject to a LIBOR Rate Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period. 

 

	 	5.7	Increased Costs. 

  

	 	5.7.1	Increased Costs Generally. 

 If any Change in Law shall: 

(a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Lender; 

(b) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of
Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by it, or change the basis of Taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes indemnifiable under
Section 5.8 [Taxes] and any Excluded Taxes); or 
 (c) impose on any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Relevant
Interbank Market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or
maintaining any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of
Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Issuing Lender, or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest
or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, the Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the
Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
  

	 	5.7.2	Capital Requirements. 

 If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Change
in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the
Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s
holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to
capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or
the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

  
 -84- 

	 	5.7.3	Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans. 

A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender
or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 5.7.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or Section 5.7.2 [Capital Requirements] and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay
such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof. 
  

	 	5.7.4	Delay in Requests. 

 Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to
demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to
compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the
case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise
to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 

 

	 	5.8	Taxes. 

  

	 	5.8.1	Payments Free of Taxes. 

 Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable
Law to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 5.8 [Taxes]) each Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.

  

	 	5.8.2	Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. 

 Without limiting the provisions of
Section 5.8.1 [Payments Free of Taxes] above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law. 
  

	 	5.8.3	Indemnification by the Borrower. 

 The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent
and each Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes 

  
 -85- 

 
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.8 [Taxes]) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, 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 Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or
liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

 

	 	5.8.4	Evidence of Payments.

Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in
writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

(i) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent 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 request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

Document are effectively connected with such Foreign Lender’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two duly completed valid originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms), 
 (D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not

W-8BEN, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required information (or any successor forms) from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 5.8.5 [Status of Lenders] if such beneficial
owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax
Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Foreign Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partner(s)), or 
 (E)
two (2) duly completed valid 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

Borrower and the Administrative 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 request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) two (2) originals of an IRS
Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. 
 (iii) If a payment
made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or
1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent to comply with their FATCA obligations, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s FATCA obligations and to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.

 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.8.5 [Status of Lenders], a Lender shall not be required to deliver any
documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver. 
  

	 	5.8.6	Refunds. 

 If the Administrative Agent or any Lender receives a refund of any
Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.8 [Taxes], it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such

  
 -87- 

 
refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 5.8 [Taxes] with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to
such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official
Body with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the
relevant Official Body) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Official Body. This Section 5.8 [Taxes] shall not be construed to require the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

 

	 	5.8.7	Definition of Lender. 

 For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall,
for purposes of this Section 5.8 [Taxes], include any Issuing Lender. 
  

	 	5.9	Indemnity. 

 In addition to the compensation or payments required by Section 5.7
[Increased Costs] or Section 5.8 [Taxes], the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against all liabilities, losses, claims, damages or expenses (including loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising
from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract) which such Lender sustains
or incurs as a consequence of any: 
 (a) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option
applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due), 

(b) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan
Requests under Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] or Section 4.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 5.6 [Prepayments], 

(c) default by the Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder, or 

(d) the assignment of any Revolving Credit Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option other than on the last day of the Interest Period
as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender]; provided, however, that with respect to this clause (d), the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Defaulting Lender
whose Revolving Credit Loans are being replaced as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender]. 

If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good
faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense.
Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given. 

  
 -88- 

	 	5.10	Settlement Date Procedures. 

 In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the
Lenders and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loans] hereof during the period between Settlement Dates. The Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of its Ratable Share of the total of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). On such Settlement Date, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount equal to
the difference between its Required Share and its Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit
Loans. The Administrative Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans and on dates on which mandatory prepayments are due under Section 5.6.4 [Mandatory
Prepayments] and may at its option effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience, and nothing contained in this Section 5.10 [Settlement Date
Procedures] shall relieve the Lenders of their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loans]. The Administrative Agent may at any time at its option for any reason
whatsoever require each Lender to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Lender may at any time require the Administrative Agent to pay immediately to such
Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. 
  

	 	5.11	Borrowing Base Deficiency. 

 (a) If the Revolving Facility Usage ever exceeds the
Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such condition from the Administrative Agent, elect by written notice to the Administrative Agent to take one or more of the following actions to
eliminate the Borrowing Base deficiency: 
 (i) add additional Oil and Gas Properties reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent to the Borrowing Base Properties such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within 30 days after the Borrower’s notice of election; or 

(ii) either (a) within 30 days following the delivery of such notice, prepay Loans in an aggregate principal amount
equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency or (b) eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency by making six (6) consecutive, mandatory, equal, monthly prepayments of principal on the Revolving Credit Loans, each of which shall be in the amount
of 1/6th of the amount of such Borrowing Base Deficiency, commencing on the first Business Day of the first calendar month following the delivery of such notice and continuing on the first Business Day of each calendar month thereafter. If the
Revolving Credit Loans have been repaid in full and a Borrowing Base Deficiency still exists, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is eliminated within a period of 30 days
after the Revolving Credit Loans have been repaid in full. 
 (b) Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.11 [Borrowing Base
Deficiency] shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment.

 -90- 

	 	6.6	No Conflict. 

 Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents to which it is a party by any Loan Party nor the consummation of the transactions herein or therein contemplated or compliance with the terms and provisions hereof or thereof by any of them will conflict with, constitute a default under or

it or any of its property or assets is bound (any such term, covenant, condition or provision, a “Contractual Requirement”), except that certain consents may be required under various contracts and agreements in connection with any
attempt to assign such various contracts and agreements pursuant to the assertion of remedies under the Loan Documents.

 The Loan Parties intend to use the proceeds of the Loans in
accordance with Section 8.1.11 [Use of Proceeds]. 
  

	 	6.11	Liens in the Collateral.

the Security Agreement in the Collateral (of the type that can be perfected by filing under the Uniform Commercial Code), subject to the actions described in the following sentence, constitute and will continue to constitute first-priority security
interests, subject to Permitted Liens and the proviso set forth in Section 6.8(a) [Title to Properties], under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in each applicable jurisdiction or other applicable Law entitled to all the rights, benefits
and priorities provided by the Uniform Commercial Code or such Law. Upon the due filing of financing statements relating to said security interests in each office and in each jurisdiction where required in order to perfect the security interests

the Mortgages and in the proviso set forth in Section 6.8(a) [Title to Properties], the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to each Mortgage constitute a valid first priority Lien on the Real Property under applicable law, subject

Reserves included in the Borrowing Base and (ii) Coal Assets that are currently encumbered by a Mortgage under the Existing Credit Agreements. 

(c) Pledged Securities. All Equity Interests included in the Pledged Securities to be pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement are
or will be upon issuance validly issued and nonassessable and owned beneficially and of record by the pledgor free and clear of any Lien or restriction on transfer, except for nonconsensual Permitted Liens, Liens contemplated by clause (5) of
the definition of “Permitted Liens” and inchoate Permitted Liens that do not have priority over the Liens granted under the Loan Documents and as otherwise provided by the Security Agreement and except as the right of the Lenders to
dispose of such Equity Interests may be limited by the Securities Act and the regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder and by applicable state securities laws. There are no shareholder or other agreements or understandings other than
partnership agreements, limited liability company agreements or operating agreements, with respect to the Equity Interests included in the Pledged Securities, except as described on Schedule 6.11. As of the Closing Date, the Loan Parties
have delivered true and correct copies of such partnership agreements and limited liability company agreements to the Administrative Agent.

 Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any
certificate, statement, agreement or other documents furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection herewith or therewith, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to
make the statements contained herein and therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. There is no fact known to any Loan Party which materially adversely affects the business, property, assets, financial
condition, or results of operations of the Loan Parties taken as a whole that has not been set forth in this Agreement or in the certificates, statements, agreements or other documents furnished in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
prior to or at the date hereof in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

to the extent that such Taxes, fees, assessments and other charges are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which such reserves or other appropriate provisions, if any, as shall be required by GAAP
shall have been made. There are no agreements or waivers extending the statutory period of limitations applicable to any material federal income Tax return of any Loan Party for any period. 

  
 -93- 

	 	6.14	Consents and Approvals. 

 Except for the filings or recordings required pursuant to
Section 7.1.1(j) [Security Documents], no consent, approval, exemption, order or authorization of, or a registration or filing with, any Official Body or any other Person is necessary to authorize or permit the execution, delivery or

time of each borrowing of the Loans, the issuance of the Letters of Credit (including extensions, renewals and amendments thereof) and at the time of selection of, renewal of or conversion to an Interest Rate Option, the Loan Parties, taken as a

	 	8.1.3	Maintenance of Insurance.

their properties and assets against loss or damage by fire and such other insurable hazards (including flood, fire, property damage, workers’ compensation and public liability insurance) and against other risks, and in such amounts as similar

Subsidiaries, (iii) provide a waiver of any right of the insurers to set off or counterclaim or any other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise (to the extent that the Loan Parties are able on a commercially reasonable efforts basis to
obtain such waiver from the insurers), (iv) provide that no cancellation of such policies for any reason (including non-payment of premium) nor any change therein shall be effective until at least ten (10) days after notification to the
Administrative Agent of such cancellation or change, (v) be primary without right of contribution of any other liability insurance carried by or on behalf of any additional insureds with respect to their respective interests in the Collateral,
and (vi) provide that inasmuch as any liability policy covers more than one insured, all terms, conditions, insuring agreements and endorsements (except limits of liability) shall operate as if there were a separate policy covering each
insured. Each Loan Party shall take all actions required under the Flood Laws to assist in ensuring that each Lender is in compliance with the Flood Laws applicable to the Collateral, including, but not limited to, (i) maintaining such flood
insurance in full force and effect and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Flood Laws and (ii) delivering to the Administrative Agent evidence of such compliance in form and

 The Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries
shall maintain in full force and effect all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses, franchises, permits and other authorizations necessary for the ownership and operation of their properties and business if the failure

	 	8.1.18	Title Information. 

 (a) Notwithstanding anything set forth herein or in the other Loan
Documents to the contrary, on or prior to the Closing Date, the Loan Parties shall deliver title reports and information on the Proved Reserves that comprise at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the total present value of all the Proved
Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties. All such title reports and information shall be in form and substance that is customary and usual for such Proved Reserves and shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent (the “Required Title Information”). Additionally, on or before the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of each Reserve Report delivered after the Closing Date, the Borrower will deliver the
Required Title Information covering enough of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report that were not included in the immediately preceding Reserve Report, so that the Administrative Agent shall
have received together with the Required Title Information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Required Title Information on at least 75% of the total present value of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties
evaluated by such Reserve Report. 
 (b) At any time that the Borrower has provided the Required Title Information for Proved Gas
Collateral under Section 8.1.18(a), the Borrower shall, within sixty (60) days of notice from the Administrative Agent that title defects or exceptions exist with respect to such Proved Gas Collateral, either (i) cure to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent any such title defects or exceptions 

  
 -109- 

 
(including defects or exceptions as to priority) which are not Permitted Liens raised by such information, (ii) substitute acceptable Proved Reserves with no title defects or exceptions
except for Permitted Liens, or (iii) deliver additional Required Title Information so that the Administrative Agent shall have received, together with the Required Title Information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Required
Title Information on at least 75% of the total present value of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by the then current Reserve Report. 

(c) If the Borrower is unable to cure any title defect requested by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to be cured within the sixty
(60) day period or the Borrower does not comply with the requirements to provide the Required Title Information covering 75% of the value of the Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties, such default shall not be an Event of
Default, but instead the Syndication Agent and/or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders shall have the right to exercise the following remedy in their sole discretion from time to time, and any failure to so exercise this remedy at any time shall not
be a waiver as to future exercise of the remedy by the Syndication Agent or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders. To the extent that the Syndication Agent or the Required Borrowing Base Lenders are not satisfied with title to any Proved Gas
Collateral after the sixty (60) day period has elapsed, such unacceptable Proved Gas Collateral shall not count towards the 75% requirement, and the Administrative Agent may send a notice to the Borrower and the Lenders that the then
outstanding Borrowing Base shall be reduced by an amount as determined by the Required Borrowing Base Lenders to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the requirement to provide the Required Title Information on 75% of the present value of the
Proved Reserves included in the Borrowing Base Properties. This new Borrowing Base shall become effective immediately after receipt of such notice. 
  

	 	8.1.19	Maintenance of Permits. 

 The Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall maintain

	 	8.1.20	Post-Closing Matters. 

 The Loan Parties will execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent the documents and complete the tasks set forth on Schedule 8.1.20, within the time frames set forth therein, unless otherwise waived or extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

 The Loan Parties, jointly and severally, covenant and agree that
until payment in full of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and Letter of Credit Borrowings and interest thereon, expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, satisfaction of all of the Loan Parties’ other Obligations hereunder and
termination of the Commitments, the Loan Parties shall comply with the following negative covenants: 
  

	 	8.2.1	Indebtedness. 

 The Borrower shall not, and shall not cause or permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, incur, assume or otherwise become liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness, and the Borrower will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will

amount of all other Indebtedness or Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (d), not to exceed at any time outstanding under this clause (d) (i) in the case of such Indebtedness secured by Liens solely on Coal Assets,
$250,000,000 and (ii) in the case of all other Indebtedness, $200,000,000; 
 (e) Indebtedness of any Person that

recourse solely to) Equity Interests in such Unrestricted Subsidiary held by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary to secure such Indebtedness and (ii) such Indebtedness shall be Non-Recourse Debt; 

  
 -111- 

 (l) Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or the issuance of
any Disqualified Stock by the Borrower or Preferred Stock by any Restricted Subsidiary in an aggregate amount not exceeding, at any one time outstanding, $50,000,000; 

(m) (x) Permitted Unsecured Notes; provided that (i) the Borrowing Base shall be reduced by an amount equal to
25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness in accordance with Section 2.9(f) [Borrowing Base] (unless the requirement for such reduction is waived in writing by the Required Lenders) and (ii) the Borrower shall comply with

full; and 
 (r) Guaranties of the obligations of Met Entities and Thermal Entities set forth on Schedule 8.2.1(r);
provided that the Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Guaranties of the Met Entities or Thermal Entities, as applicable, to be released upon renewal or replacement of the applicable contract following the
applicable Separation Transaction; provided further that Schedule 8.2.1(r) shall be updated with the Guaranties of the obligations of Met Entities (which schedule shall contain Guaranties of the same type as the Guaranties of the

and payable, and the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize all Letter of Credit Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit (to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to this
Agreement), in each case, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived; and 
  

	 	9.2.3	Set-off. 

 If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any Secured Party to
whom any Obligation is owed by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any participant of any Lender which has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 5.3 [Sharing of Payments by Lenders] and any branch,
Subsidiary or Affiliate of Secured Party anywhere in the world shall have the right (to the extent permitted by applicable Law), in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, without notice to such Loan Party, to set-off against and
apply to the then unpaid balance of all the Loans and all other Obligations of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document any debt owing to, and any other funds held in any manner for the account of, the
Borrower or such other Loan Party by such Secured Party or participant or by such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate, including all funds in all deposit accounts (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited,
or otherwise) now or hereafter maintained by the Borrower or such other Loan Party for its own account (but not including funds held in custodian or trust accounts or funds not otherwise beneficially owned by the Borrower or such other Loan Party)
with such Secured Party or participant or such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate. Such right shall exist whether or not any Secured Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether or not such debt owing to or
funds held for the account of the Borrower or such other Loan Party is or are matured or unmatured and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any Collateral, Guaranty or any other security, right or remedy available to any Secured Party; and

  

	 	9.2.4	[Reserved]. 

  

	 	9.2.5	Application of Proceeds. 

 From and after the date on which the Administrative Agent has
taken any action pursuant to this Section 9.2 [Consequences of Event of Default] and until all Obligations of the Loan Parties have been paid in full, any and all proceeds received by the Administrative Agent from any sale or other

  
 -137- 

 
disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, or the exercise of any other remedy by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, shall be applied, as follows: 

(a) First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, out-of-pocket expenses and
other amounts (including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Collateral Agent) payable to the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or the Collateral Agent in their
respective capacities as such; 
 (b) Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees,
indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the Issuing Lenders) arising
under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (b) payable to them; 

(c) Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fees and
interest on the Loans, Letter of Credit Borrowings and other Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (c) payable to them;

 (d) Fourth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lenders, to Cash Collateralize that portion
of Letter of Credit Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; 

(e) Fifth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, Letter of Credit
Borrowings and Obligations then owing under Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, ratably among the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the providers of Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided
Financial Service Product in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (e) held by them; and 
 (f)
Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) amounts received from the Borrower or any Guarantor that is not a Qualified ECP Loan Party shall not be applied to the
Obligations that are Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Obligations other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this clause (a), the Administrative Agent shall make such
adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to clause Fifth above from amounts received from Qualified ECP Loan Party to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to Obligations
described in clause Fifth above by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other Obligations pursuant to clause Fifth above) and (b) Obligations arising under Specified
Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the
Administrative Agent may request, from the counterparty to such Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, as the case may be. Each counterparty to a Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial
Service Products not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of
Section 10 [The Administrative Agent] hereof for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto. 

  
 -138- 

	 	9.2.6	Collateral Agent 

 All Liens granted as security for the Obligations under the Security
Documents and any other Loan Document shall secure the Obligations ratably and on a pari passu basis in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. No provider of a Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided
Financial Services Product (except in its capacity as a Lender hereunder (to the extent that this Agreement or any other Loan Document empowers the Lenders to direct the Administrative Agent)) shall be entitled or have the power to direct or
instruct the Collateral Agent on any such matters or to control or direct in any manner the maintenance or disposition of the Collateral. 
  

	 	9.2.7	Other Rights and Remedies. 

 In addition to all of the rights and remedies contained in
this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents (including each Mortgage), the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable
Law, all of which rights and remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive, to the extent permitted by Law. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, exercise all
post-default rights granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable Law. 
  

	 	9.3	Notice of Sale. 

 Any notice required to be given by the Collateral Agent of a sale,
lease, or other disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action by the Collateral Agent, if given to the Borrower at least ten (10) days prior to such proposed action, shall constitute commercially reasonable and fair notice thereof
to the Borrower. 
 10. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
  

	 	10.1	Appointment and Authority. 

 Each Lender (including in its capacity as a counterparty to
a Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product or an Affiliate of such counterparty on behalf of such Affiliate) and Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes: (i) PNC to act as
Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for such Lender under the Loan Documents and to execute and deliver or accept on behalf of each of the Lenders the other Loan Documents and (ii) Bank of America, N.A. to act as Syndication Agent for
each Lender under this Agreement. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of a Note shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize, the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein, and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or any of them by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. PNC agrees to act as the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the extent provided in the Loan
Documents, and Bank of America, N.A. agrees to act as Syndication Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the extent provided in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 10 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Syndication
Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions, except as set forth in Section 10.10 [Authorization to Release Collateral and
Guarantors; Certain Amendments]. 

  
 -139- 

	 	10.2	Rights as a Lender. 

 The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and Syndication
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 or Syndication Agent, as applicable, and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent hereunder in its individual
capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, 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 or Syndication Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 
  

	 	10.3	Exculpatory Provisions. 

 The Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent shall not have
any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent: 

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Potential Default or Event of
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 or Syndication 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 or Syndication Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its
opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law; and 

(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 Syndication Agent any of their Affiliates in any
capacity. 
 The Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent 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 or Syndication Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances
as provided in Sections 11.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers] and 9.2 [Consequences of Event of Default]) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent shall
be deemed not to have knowledge of any Potential Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Potential Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent, as applicable, by the Borrower,
a Lender or the Issuing Lender. 
 The Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent 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 Potential Default or Event of Default,
(iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness 

  
 -140- 

 
or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 7 [Conditions of
Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
  

	 	10.4	Reliance by Agents. 

 The Administrative Agent and Syndication 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 and Syndication 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, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be
fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent and/or Syndication
Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent and Syndication 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. 

 

	 	10.5	Delegation of Duties. 

 The Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent may perform any
and all of their duties and exercise their 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,
Syndication 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
Section 10 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and Syndication 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 and Syndication Agent. 

 

	 	10.6	Resignation of Agents. 

 The Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent may at any
time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with approval from the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 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 and/or Syndication Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such
appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such

  
 -141- 

 
collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) 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 and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 10.6. Upon the acceptance of
a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent
and/or Syndication Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Syndication 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 10.6). 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 and/or Syndication Agent resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 10.6 and Section 11.3 [Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] shall continue in effect for the benefit of such
retiring Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent, their 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 and/or Syndication Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and/or Syndication Agent, as applicable. 
 If PNC resigns
as Administrative Agent under this Section 10.6, PNC shall also resign as an Issuing Lender. If PNC resigns as an Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an Issuing Lender with respect to all Letters of
Credit issued by it that remain outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk
participations in Letter of Credit Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.10.3 [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement]. Upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall (i) succeed to all of the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of PNC as a retiring Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent and PNC shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations as Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and
(ii) issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by PNC, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to PNC to effectively assume the obligations of PNC with respect to
such Letters of Credit. 
 If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the
definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If
no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then
such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 
  

	 	10.7	Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. 

 Each Lender and the Issuing
Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 Lender and the Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related
Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related
agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

  
 -142- 

	 	10.8	No Other Duties, Etc. 

 Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, none of the “Joint Lead Arrangers,” “Joint Bookrunners,” “Co-Documentation Agents” or Lenders listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent, Collateral Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder. 

 

	 	10.9	Administrative Agent’s Fee. 

 The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent a
nonrefundable fee (the “Administrative Agent’s Fee”) under the terms of a letter (the “Administrative Agent’s Letter”) between the Borrower and Administrative Agent, as amended from time to time. 

 

	 	10.10	Authorization to Release Collateral and Guarantors; Certain Amendments. 

 (a) It is
expressly agreed by each Lender and each Issuing Lender, that upon the written request of the Borrower (accompanied by such certificates and other documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request) the Administrative Agent on behalf
of the Lenders and without any consent or action by any Lender, shall: 
 (i) so long as no Event of
Default exists after giving effect thereto, release, subordinate, enter into non-disturbance agreements or consent to the release by the Collateral Agent of, or grant of an option with respect to, (A) any
Collateral or any Guarantor from a Guaranty Agreement or any other Loan Document, in either case, in connection with any sale, transfer, lease, disposition, merger or other transaction permitted or not prohibited by this Agreement (including a
release of Accounts or related contracts giving rise to Accounts from time to time in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction and releases in connection with a Permitted Coal Disposition), such release to include releases from the
Guaranty Agreement or any other Loan Document of any Loan Party that becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or ceases to be a Subsidiary pursuant to any sale, transfer, lease, disposition, merger or other transaction permitted by this Agreement and a
release of all the assets of such Loan Party that becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or ceases to be a Subsidiary (other than, with respect to CNX Gas, a pledge of its Capital Stock or equity interests directly owned by any Loan Party), (B) any
assets no longer required to be Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, or (C) any assets in connection with any easements, permits, licenses, rights of way, options, surface leases or other surface
rights or interests permitted to be granted hereunder; 
 (ii) substantially concurrently with consummation of the Met
Facility, execute documents to evidence the release of any assets of or Equity Interests in Met Facility Parties; 
 (iii)
substantially concurrently with consummation of the Thermal Term Loan Facility, execute documents to evidence the release of any assets of or Equity Interests in Thermal Facility Parties; 

(iv) upon consummation of the Met Spinoff, execute documents to evidence the release of (A) the Met Public Company and
its Subsidiaries from their Obligations under the Guaranty Agreement and the Security Documents and (B) the assets of or Equity Interests in the Met Public Company and its Subsidiaries from the Lien of the Security Documents; 

  
 -143- 

 (v) upon consummation of the Thermal Spinoff, execute documents to evidence the
release of (A) the Thermal General Partner, the Thermal Public Company and its Subsidiaries from their Obligations under the Guaranty Agreement and the Security Documents, (B) the assets of the Thermal General Partner, the Thermal Public
Company and its Subsidiaries and the Thermal Co-Owners from the Lien of the Security Documents and (C) the Equity Interests in the Thermal Public Company and its Subsidiaries from the Lien of the Security Documents, 

(vi) upon consummation of the Alternative Coal Spinoff, execute documents to evidence the release of (A) the Alternative
Coal Holding Company and its Subsidiaries from their Obligations under the Guaranty Agreement and the Security Documents and (B) the assets of and Equity Interests in the Alternative Coal Holding Company and its Subsidiaries from the Lien of
the Security Documents; and 
 (vii) upon consummation of the Gas Spinoff, execute documents to evidence the release of
(A) CEI and its Subsidiaries (other than Subsidiaries of the Gas Holding Company) from their Obligations under the Guaranty Agreement and the Security Documents, (B) the assets of CEI and its Subsidiaries (other than the Gas Holding
Company and its Subsidiaries) from the Lien of the Security Documents and (C) the Equity Interests in Subsidiaries of CEI (other than Subsidiaries of the Gas Holding Company) from the Lien of the Security Documents; 

provided that in no case shall the release of any Person from the Guaranty Agreement be effective prior to the release of such Person from its Guaranty
of the Existing Notes and all other Publicly Traded Debt Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, assets secured by mortgages and fixture filings delivered pursuant to the Existing CNX Gas Credit Agreement or the Existing CONSOL Credit Agreement
prior to the Closing Date (other than building and structures as defined in the Flood Laws that are immaterial as reasonably determined in writing by the Administrative Agent) shall not be released from Mortgages or fixture filings by reason of the
exclusions from the Collateral requirements described in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, but shall be released upon any Disposition thereof permitted hereunder. 

(b) Notwithstanding Section 11.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers] or any other provision in any Loan Document to the contrary, the
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and without any consent or action by any Lender, amend, modify, supplement, restate, terminate or release in whole or in part any of the Loan Documents from time to time or consent to such action by
the Collateral Agent to (i) cure any defect or error, (ii) comply with any provision hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (iii) add Guarantors of the Obligations; (iv) add property or other assets as Collateral,
(v) add covenants of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties for the benefit of the Lenders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties, (vi) approve of any correction or update to
any Schedule hereto or to any other Loan Document to the extent such Schedule is being corrected in any manner that is not material or is being updated to reflect the consummation of any transaction or exercise of any rights of the Loan Parties
permitted hereunder for which no consent is required or for which the required consent has been received, (vii) release from perfection any Lien created by any Loan Document that is no longer required by the terms hereof or such Loan Document
to be perfected, or (viii) share Collateral on a pro rata basis with any counterparty to a Specified Swap Agreement described in clause (iii) of the definition of “Specified Swap Agreement”. 

  
 -144- 

	 	10.11	No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. 

 Each
Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer
identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP
Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions
hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv) customer notices or (v) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or
such other Laws. 
  

	 	10.12	Withholding Tax. 

 To the extent required by any applicable Law (as determined in good
faith by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under any Loan Document an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 5.8
[Taxes], each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and
expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Official Body as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to
properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a
change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under
this Section 10.12 [Withholding Tax]. The agreements in this Section 10.12 [Withholding Tax] shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the
termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 10.12 [Withholding Tax], include any Issuing
Lender. 
 11. MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	 	11.1	Modifications, Amendments or Waivers. 

  

	 	11.1.1	Required Consents. 

 With the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of all the Lenders, and the Borrower, on behalf of the Loan Parties, may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
rights of the Lenders or the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder, or may grant written waivers or consents hereunder or thereunder; provided that no consent of any Lender is required for releases, corrections, amendments, updates or other
transactions or actions authorized by Section 10.10 [Authorization to Release Collateral and Guarantors; Certain Amendments]. Any such agreement, waiver or consent

any Loan, the Commitment Fee or any other fee payable to any Lender, or reduce the principal amount of or the rate of interest borne by any Loan or reduce the Commitment Fee or any other fee payable to any Lender, without the consent of each Lender
directly affected thereby (it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans or the application of any rate increase described in Section 4.3 [Interest After Default] shall not
constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest);

asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance or nonperformance by the Loan Parties of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or

suits, costs, expenses or disbursements with respect to an Indemnitee (A) if the same is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct, (B) if the Borrower was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that the Borrower shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not
result in a loss to the 

  
 -148- 

 
Borrower), (C) if the same results from a compromise or settlement agreement entered into without notice to or the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or (D) results from a dispute solely among Indemnitees (other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as the Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent or arranger or any similar role under this Agreement
and other than any claims arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates). The Indemnitees will attempt to minimize the fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Indemnitees which are subject to reimbursement by the
Borrower hereunder by considering the usage of one law firm to represent the Indemnitees if appropriate under the circumstances. This Section 11.3.2 [Indemnification by the Borrower] shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes
that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 
  

	 	11.3.3	Reimbursement by Lenders.

the Syndication Agent, the Issuing Lenders or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Syndication Agent, the Issuing Lenders or such Related Party, as
the case may be, such Lender’s Ratable Share (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 (or any such sub-agent), the Syndication Agent or an Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any
of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Syndication Agent or such Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity. 
  

	 	11.3.4	Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. 

 No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages
arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such damages are found to be a final, non-appealable judgment of a court to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, nor shall any Indemnitee, Loan Party or any
Subsidiary have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or
therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date); it being agreed that this sentence shall not limit the indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 11.3.2 [Indemnification by the Borrower].

day which is not a Business Day such payment shall be due on the next Business Day (except as provided in Section 4.2 [Interest Periods]) and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall
be due on the Business Day preceding the Expiration Date if the Expiration Date is not a Business Day. Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than 

  
 -149-

Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to the Syndication Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender if such Syndication Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent
that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication and the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrower of the same. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept
notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative
Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt
requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be
deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended
recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

 The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any
provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner
affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

	 	11.8	Successors and Assigns. 

  

	 	11.8.1	Successors and Assigns Generally. 

 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 the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.8.2 [Assignments by

of the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
  

	 	11.8.2	Assignments by Lenders. 

 Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all
or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(a) Minimum Amounts. 

(i) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the
time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

  
 -151- 

 (ii) in any case not described in clause (a)(i) of this Section 11.8.2, the
aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as of the
Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Commitment of the assigning Lender, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) and: 

(i) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided 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; and 

(ii) the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required
for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).

 -152- 

 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 11.8.3 [Register], from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption Agreement, 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 Agreement, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement 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 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 5.7 [Increased Costs], and Section 11.3 [Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver] with respect to facts and
circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.8.2 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 11.8.4 [Participations]. 
  

	 	11.8.3	Register. 

 The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrower, shall maintain a record of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. Such
register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is in such register pursuant to the terms hereof as a
Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Such 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.

  

	 	11.8.4	Participations. 

 Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such
Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 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 with respect to any of clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (g) or (h) of Section 11.1.1
[Required Consents]. Subject to Section 11.8.5 [Limitations upon Participant Rights], the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs;
Deposits Not Available], Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] and Section 5.8 [Taxes] (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections and Section 5.6.3 [Mitigation Obligation] and 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender], and it being
understood that the documentation required under Section 5.8.5 [Status of Lenders] shall be delivered solely to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
Section 11.8.2 [Assignments by Lenders]. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.2.3 [Set-off] as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject
to Section 5.3 [Sharing of Payments by Lenders] as though it were a Lender. 

  
 -153- 

 Each Lender that sells participations to a Participant, acting solely for this purpose as a
non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register of all such Participants. The entries in the participant register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrower and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the participant register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary; provided that no Lender shall have the obligation to disclose all or a portion of
the participant register (including the identity of the Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Loans or other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person expect to the extent that such disclosure is
necessary in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding to establish that any loans are in registered form for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent)
shall have no responsibility for maintaining a participant register. 
  

	 	11.8.5	Limitations upon Participant Rights. 

 A Participant shall not be entitled to receive
any greater payment under Section 5.7 [Increased Costs], Section 5.8 [Taxes] or Section 11.3 [Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to
such Participant, except to the extent that the Participant’s right to a greater payment results from a Change in Law after the Participant became a Participant. 
  

	 	11.8.6	Certain Pledges; Successors and Assigns Generally. 

 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 any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction;
provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

 

	 	11.9	Confidentiality. 

  

	 	11.9.1	General. 

 Each of the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Lenders and the
Issuing Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors
and other representatives (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), (ii) to the extent requested

assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (b) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations,
(vii) with the consent of the Borrower or (viii) to the extent such Information (a) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.9 or (b) 

  
 -154- 

 
becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the
Borrower, the other Loan Parties or any other Person that has obtained such confidential information pursuant to this Section 11.9. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.9 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. 

 

	 	11.9.2	Sharing Information With Affiliates of the Lenders. 

 Each Loan Party acknowledges that
from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Affiliates (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more Subsidiaries or
Affiliates of such Lender and each of the Loan Parties hereby authorizes each Lender to share any information delivered to such Lender by such Loan Party and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement to any such Subsidiary or Affiliate subject to
the provisions of Section 11.9.1 [General]. 
  

	 	11.10	Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 

 This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and 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 supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or
written, relating to the subject matter hereof including any prior confidentiality agreements and commitments. Except as provided in Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit], 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 that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart
of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or e-mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
