1

		
	(a)
	Amount of Withholding Taxes.  If any amount is required to be withheld in connection with the payment of an Award, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to inform the Grantee prior to the payment of any portion of the Award of (i) the estimated amount of any national, local income and employment taxes and social, health or national insurance (collectively “Taxes”) which the Company has determined will be owed by the Grantee by reason of the  payment of the Award and (ii) the amount, if any, that the Company or any of its Affiliates will be required to withhold from the Grantee by reason of such payment.

	5.
	Non Transferability.    The Grantee shall not sell, assign, exchange, transfer (other than by will or the laws of descent or distribution), pledge, charge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of or encumber the Award.

		
	6.
	Effect Upon Service.   Nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right with respect to the continuation of the Grantee’s Service with the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company, subject to the terms of any separate agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate such Service.

		
	7.
	Determinations.    The Committee has the power to interpret this Agreement and to administer, interpret and apply the Award in a manner consistent with the terms hereof (including, but not limited to, determining, in is sole and absolute discretion, whether any portion of the Award is payable and whether any unpaid portion of the Award of the Grantee may be accelerated and the corresponding payment date thereof).  Each determination, interpretation or other action made or taken pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement by the Committee shall be final and conclusive for all purposes and shall be binding upon all persons, including, without limitation, the Company and the Grantee, and the Grantee’s respective successors and assigns. 

		
	8.
	Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy.  The Award is subject to recoupment in accordance with the Company’s Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy in effect from time to time.

		
	9.
	Section 409A of the Code.  It is intended that the Award is exempt from Sections 409A and 457A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the “Code”) pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule applicable to each such section, as set forth in the regulations or other guidance published thereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on the Grantee in connection with the Award (including any taxes and penalties under Sections 409A and 457A of the Code), and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold the Grantee harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

		
	10.
	Acceptance of Award; Electronic Delivery.  The Award evidenced by this Agreement shall be forfeited for no consideration if this Agreement is not accepted by the Grantee by executing and returning a copy of this Agreement to the Company within ninety (90) days of the date hereof.

	12.
	Amendment. The Grantee hereby consents to any amendment to this Agreement in any way the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply with or satisfy exemption from Sections 409A and 457A of the Code, to carry out the purpose of the Award, or in connection with any change in applicable laws or regulation or any future law or regulation. Except as provided above, any amendment to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by the Company and the Grantee.  

		
	13.
	Governing Law.    This Agreement and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the laws of Bermuda.

		
	14.
	Severability.  In the event any provision of this Agreement shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had not been included.  

		
	15.

Annex A

Additional Events

		
	1.
	For purposes of this Agreement, the following definitions shall apply:

“Change in Control” means:

(i)    the consummation of any amalgamation, consolidation or merger of the Company pursuant to which the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the amalgamation, merger or consolidation do not constitute, immediately after the amalgamation, consolidation or merger, the beneficial owners (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company (or the surviving entity) generally entitled to vote in the election of directors; provided, that any amalgamation, consolidation, merger or other business combination effected solely to change the domicile of the Company shall not constitute a Change in Control; 

(ii)    the occurrence of an event the result of which is that any “person” or “group” of related persons (as defined in Section 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act), becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

(iii)    the sale or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Affiliates to an unaffiliated third party or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or 

(iv)    a change in the composition of the Board in any two-year period, such that a majority of the members of the Board are not (A) persons who were directors at the beginning of such period or (B) persons who are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board by an affirmative vote of the majority of the such directors (but shall not include an individual whose election or nomination is in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors to the Board);

provided, however, that (I) a Change in Control shall not include a Time Warner Transaction, and (II) for purposes of any Award or subplan that may constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Code section 409A, the Committee, in its discretion, may specify a different definition of Change in Control in order to comply with or cause an Award to be exempt from the provisions of Code section 409A. 

“Delisting Event” means an event or circumstance as a result of which the Company is no longer publicly traded with its shares of Class A common stock listed on the NASDAQ Global Market. 

“Disposition Event” means a transaction or series of related transactions following which the Company, in the judgement of the Committee, ceases to own a material portion of its assets.

“Employment Contract” means the [amended and restated] employment contract dated [●] between the Grantee and CME Media Services Limited, as amended, amended and restated, otherwise modified or superseded from time to time. 

“Good Reason” means a material breach of the Employment Contract by CME Media Services Limited which results in the termination of the Employment Contract by the Grantee pursuant to clause [●] thereof. 

“Qualifying Termination Event” means a termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company or any Affiliate (i) by the Grantee for Good Reason or (ii) by the Company or such Affiliate which is not a Termination for Cause.

“Termination for Cause” shall have the meaning assigned to it in clause [●] of the Employment Contract. 

“Time Warner Transaction” means (i) any transaction or event (including the exercise of conversion rights under any convertible security) the result of which is that AT&T Inc. (as the successor to the beneficial ownership interest of Time Warner Inc. in the Company) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities (including any securities attributed to it as part of a group under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; or (ii) the consummation of any amalgamation, consolidation or merger of the Company pursuant to which the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the amalgamation, merger or consolidation do not constitute, immediately after the amalgamation, consolidation or merger, the beneficial owners (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of the voting power 

- 4 -
 
 

of the then outstanding securities of the Company (or the surviving entity) generally entitled to vote in the election of directors; provided, that AT&T Inc. is the beneficial owner of 20% of the voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company (or the surviving entity) generally entitled to vote in the election of directors following such amalgamation, consolidation or merger.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event AT&T Inc. is the beneficial owner of less than 20% of the voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company (or the surviving entity) generally entitled to vote in the election of directors following such amalgamation, consolidation or merger, such transaction shall constitute a Change in Control.

		
	2.
	In the event of a Change in Control, any portion of the Award that has not been paid will become fully payable in a lump sum payment immediately prior to such Change in Control.

		
	3.
	In the event of a Time Warner Transaction and the Company continues to be publicly traded with its shares of Class A common stock listed on the NASDAQ Global Market, the Award will continue to be payable according to Payment Schedule set out in Section 1 of the Agreement until the earliest to occur of (i) the final Payment Date, (ii) a Qualifying Termination Event, (iii) a Delisting Event, or (iv) a Disposition Event. 

		
	4.
	In connection with a Qualifying Termination Event, any portion of the Award that has not been paid will become fully payable in a lump sum payment immediately prior to such Qualifying Termination Event.

		
	5.
	In connection with a Delisting Event or a Disposition Event, any portion of the Award that has not been paid will become fully payable in a lump sum payment immediately prior to such Delisting Event or Disposition Event.

effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document
as from time to time amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth in the Loan Documents), (b) any reference herein to any law shall be construed as
referring to such law as amended, modified, codified or reenacted, in whole or in part, and in effect from time to time, (c) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns (subject to

Section 1.05    Accounting Terms and Determinations; GAAP. Unless otherwise specified
herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted, all determinations with respect to accounting matters hereunder shall be made, and all financial statements and certificates and reports as to financial matters required to be furnished
to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder shall be prepared, in accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with the first audited financial statements delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section 8.01(a)

Section 8.01(a); provided that unless the Borrower and the Majority Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing, no such change shall modify or affect the manner in which compliance with the covenants contained herein
is computed such that all such computations shall be conducted utilizing financial information presented consistently with prior periods. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for the purposes of calculating any of the ratios tested under

 Section 1.06    Pro Forma Basis. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the calculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and the Current Ratio pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated in a manner prescribed by the definition of “Pro Forma Basis”. 

Section 1.07    Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is
determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in
the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together
with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no
longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to
identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a 

  
 47 

 
Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-In Election, Section 3.03(c)(i) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative
rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 3.03(c)(iii), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the
Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the
definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (a) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to
3.03(c)(i), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (b) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to
Section 3.03(c)(ii)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic
equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. 

Section 1.08    Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any
division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different
Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of
its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time. 
 ARTICLE II 

THE CREDITS 

Section 2.01    Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender
severally agrees to make Loans to the Borrower during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment or (b) the
total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Loan Limit then in effect. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow the Loans. 

Section 2.02    Loans and Borrowings. 

(a)    Borrowings; Several Obligations. Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans
made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments
are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 

  
 48 

 (b)    Types of Loans. Subject to
Section 3.03, each Borrowing (other than Borrowings of Swingline Loans) shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any
Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. 
 (c)    Minimum Amounts; Limitation on Number of
Borrowings. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing
is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire Unused Availability or that
is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.08(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time, provided that there shall not at any time be
more than a total of seven (7) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Eurodollar Borrowing if the Interest
Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 
 (d)    Notes. If requested by a
Lender, the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1, dated, in the case of (i) any Lender party
hereto as of the Initial Funding Date, as of the Initial Funding Date, (ii) any Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption or amendment or other modification to this Agreement, as of the effective date of the
Assignment and Assumption, amendment or other modification, or (iii) any Additional Lender that becomes a party hereto in connection with an increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts pursuant to
Section 2.06(c), as of the effective date of such increase, as applicable, payable to such Lender (or its registered assigns) in a principal amount equal to its Maximum Credit Amount as in effect on such date, and otherwise
duly completed. The Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lenders shall be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2. In the event that any Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount
increases or decreases for any reason, the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered, to the extent such Lender is then holding a Note and so requests a new Note, on the effective date of such increase or decrease, a new Note payable to such
Lender (or its registered assigns) in a principal amount equal to its Maximum Credit Amount, after giving effect to such increase or decrease, and otherwise duly completed. The date, amount, Type, interest rate and, if applicable, Interest Period of
each Loan made by each Lender, and all payments made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books for its Note(s). Failure to make any such recordation shall not affect any Lender’s or the Borrower’s
rights or obligations in respect of such Loans or affect the validity of such transfer by any Lender of its Note(s). 

Section 2.03    Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall
notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, three

 (i)    the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 

(ii)    the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii)    whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

 (vi)    the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which
funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.05. 
 If no election as to the Type of Borrowing
is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
(1) month’s duration. Each Borrowing Request shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that the amount of the requested Borrowing shall not cause the total Revolving Credit Exposures to exceed the Loan Limit. 

Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each
Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 

Section 2.04    Interest Elections. 

(a)    Conversion and Continuance. Each Borrowing (other than Borrowings of Swingline Loans) initially shall be of
the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such 

  
 50 

 
Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest
Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.04. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among
the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.04 shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted
or continued. 
 (b)    Interest Election Requests. To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.04, the
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from
such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest
Election Request in substantially the form of Exhibit C and signed by the Borrower. 

(c)    Information in Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written Interest Election
Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i)    the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with
respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(iii) and (iv) shall be specified
for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii)    the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election
Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii)    whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a
Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv)    if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be
applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. 
 (d)    Notice to Lenders
by the Administrative Agent. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender, as applicable, of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting
Borrowing. 
 (e)    Effect of Failure to Deliver Timely Interest Election Request and Events of
Default on Interest Election. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as
provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision 

  
 51 

 
hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing (and any Interest Election Request that
requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective) and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest
Period applicable thereto. 
 Section 2.05    Funding of Borrowings. 

(a)    Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date
thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such
Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent and subject to a Control Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent and
designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.08(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative
Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank and ABR Loans to be made for the purpose of refinancing Swingline Loans shall be made by the Lenders as provided in Section 2.09. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to
obtain the funds for its Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for its Loan in any particular place or manner. 

(b)    Presumption of Funding by the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.05(a) 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 Borrowing 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 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 or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such
amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 

Section 2.06    Termination and Reduction of Aggregate Maximum Credit
Amounts; Increase, Reduction, and Termination of Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts. 

(a)    Scheduled Termination of Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on
the Maturity Date. If at any time the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts, the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts or the Borrowing Base is terminated or reduced to zero, then the Commitments shall terminate on the effective date of such termination
or reduction. 

  
 52 

 (b)    Optional Termination and Reduction of Aggregate
Maximum Credit Amounts. 
 (i)    The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the
Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts; provided that (A) each reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000, (B) the Borrower shall not
terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts if, (1) after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.04(c), the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the
Loan Limit or (2) the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts would be less than $10,000,000 (unless, with respect to this clause (2), the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts are reduced to $0), and (C) upon any reduction of the Aggregate
Maximum Credit Amounts that would otherwise result in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts being less than the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be automatically reduced (ratably among the Lenders
in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage) so that they equal the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts as so reduced. 

(ii)    The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum
Credit Amounts under Section 2.06(b)(i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt
of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of
termination of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or a Change in Control, in which case such notice may be revoked by the
Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied (it being understood that the failure of such condition to be satisfied shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligations
under Section 5.02). Any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be permanent and may not be reinstated. Each reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be made ratably among the
Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage. 
 (c)    Optional Increases, Reductions and
Terminations of Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts. 
 (i)    Subject to the conditions set forth
in Section 2.06(c)(ii), the Borrower may, from time to time, increase the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts then in effect by increasing the Elected Commitment of a Lender or by causing a Person that is reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders, and the Issuing Banks that at such time is not a Lender to become a Lender (an “Additional Lender”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, in no case shall an Additional Lender be the Borrower, an Affiliate of the Borrower, the Sponsor, or a natural person (or any holding company, investment vehicle, or trust owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural person).

  
 53 

 (ii)    Any increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall
be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A)    such increase shall not be less than $5,000,000 (and shall
be in increments of $1,000,000 above such minimum amount) unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, and no such increase shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such increases after the Initial
Funding Date exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount; 
 (B)    no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing on the effective date of such increase; 
 (C)    to the extent that there are any Eurodollar Borrowings
outstanding, the effective date of such increase shall be, at the option of the Borrower, either (x) the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings or (y) such earlier date selected by the Borrower,
provided that the Borrower shall pay compensation as required by Section 5.02; 

(D)    no Lender’s Elected Commitment may be increased without the consent of such Lender; 

(E)    all of the terms and conditions applicable to such increased Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts (and the Loans
made pursuant thereto) shall be identical to the terms and conditions applicable to the existing Commitments and Loans under this Agreement (other than with respect to any arrangement, structuring, upfront or other fees or discounts payable in
connection with such increased commitment as may have been agreed to between the Borrower and the increasing Lender or Additional Lender, as applicable, and/or the Administrative Agent), provided that if the Applicable Margin of such
increased Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts is higher than that for the then existing Commitments and Loans, then the Applicable Margin shall be increased for all existing Commitments and Loans to be consistent with such increased Applicable
Margin; 
 (F)    after giving effect to any increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, the Aggregate
Elected Commitment Amounts shall not exceed the Borrowing Base then in effect; 
 (G)    the consent of each existing
Lender shall be required for any increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) and any increase in the Borrowing Base in connection therewith; 

(H)    if the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts by increasing the Aggregate Elected
Commitment Amount of a Lender, the Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I (an “Elected Commitment Increase Certificate”);

  
 54 

 (I)    if the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Elected
Commitment Amounts by causing an Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement, then the Borrower and such Additional Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit J (an “Additional Lender Certificate”), together with an Administrative Questionnaire, and the Borrower shall (1) if requested by the Additional Lender, deliver a Note payable to such Additional Lender in
a principal amount equal to its Maximum Credit Amount, and otherwise duly completed and (2) pay any applicable fees as may have been agreed to between the Borrower and the Additional Lender and, to the extent applicable, the Administrative
Agent; and 
 (J)    the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions or other
documents (including, without limitation, a resolution duly adopted by the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of each Credit Party authorizing such increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts) reasonably requested by
Administrative Agent. 
 (iii)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
Section 2.06(c)(iv), (A) on the effective date specified in the Elected Commitment Increase Certificate or the Additional Lender Certificate (or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the last day of the
Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings, unless the Borrower has paid any compensation required by Section 5.02): (1) the amount of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be increased as set
forth therein, and (2) in the case of an Additional Lender Certificate, any Additional Lender party thereto shall become a party to this Agreement and have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; and (B) in addition, the Lender or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase a pro rata portion of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in Letters of Credit) of each of the other Lenders (and such Lenders
hereby agree to sell and to take all such further action to effectuate such sale) such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests)
after giving effect to the increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts (and the resulting modifications of each Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iv) or
Section 2.06(c)(v)). 
 (iv)    Upon its receipt of a duly completed Elected Commitment
Increase Certificate or an Additional Lender Certificate, executed by the Borrower and the Lender or by the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in
Section 2.06(c)(ii), if applicable, the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank to such increase required by Section 2.06(c)(i), and the written consent of the existing
Lenders required by Section 2.06(c)(ii), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Elected Commitment Increase Certificate or Additional Lender Certificate and record the information contained therein in the Register
required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.04(b)(iv). No increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded
in the Register as provided in this Section 2.06(c)(iv). 

  
 55 

 (v)    Upon any increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts
pursuant to this Section 2.06(c), (A) each Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount shall be automatically deemed amended to the extent necessary so that each such Lender’s Applicable Percentage equals the percentage of the
Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts represented by such Lender’s Elected Commitment, in each case after giving effect to such increase, and (B) Annex I to this Agreement shall be deemed amended to reflect the Elected Commitment of each
Lender (including any Additional Lender) as thereby increased, any changes in the Lenders’ Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to the foregoing clause (A), and any resulting changes in the Lenders’ Applicable Percentages. 

(vi)    The Borrower may from time to time terminate or reduce the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts; provided
that (A) each reduction of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (B) the Borrower shall not reduce the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts
if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.04(c), the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts as reduced. 

(vii)    The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Elected
Commitment Amounts under Section 2.06(c)(vi) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following
receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.06(c)(vii) shall be irrevocable. Any termination or
reduction of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be permanent and may not be reinstated, except pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(i). Each reduction of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be made ratably
among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage. 
 (viii)    Upon any redetermination or
other adjustment in the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Agreement that would otherwise result in the Borrowing Base becoming less than the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be automatically reduced
(ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage) so that they equal such redetermined Borrowing Base (and Annex I shall be deemed amended to reflect such amendments to each Lender’s Elected
Commitment and the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts). 
 (ix)    Contemporaneously with any increase in the
Borrowing Base pursuant to this Agreement, if (A) the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts and (B) each Lender has consented to such increase in its Elected Commitment, then the Aggregate Elected Commitment
Amounts shall be increased (ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage) by the amount requested by the Borrower (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.06(c)(ii)(A)
without the requirement that any Lender deliver an Elected Commitment Increase Certificate or that the Borrower pay any amounts under Section 5.02), and Annex I shall be deemed amended to reflect such amendments to
each Lender’s Commitment and the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts. The Administrative Agent shall record the information regarding such increases in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 12.04(b)(iv). 

  
 56 

 Section 2.07    Borrowing Base. 

(a)    Initial Borrowing Base. For the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the
Initial Funding Date, the amount of the Borrowing Base shall be zero. For the period from and including the Initial Funding Date to but excluding the first Redetermination Date, and notwithstanding Section 12.02(b)(ii), the
amount of the Borrowing Base shall be $725,000,000. The Borrowing Base may be subject to adjustments in between Scheduled Redeterminations from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.07(e), (f) or 8.12(c). 

(b)    Scheduled and Interim Redeterminations. The Borrowing Base shall be redetermined in accordance with
this Section 2.07 (a “Scheduled Redetermination”), and, subject to Section 2.07(d), such redetermined Borrowing Base shall become effective and applicable to the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders on a semi-annual basis on or about March 1st and September
1st of each year (or, in each case, such date promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable) beginning on March 1, 2020 (or to the extent that the Initial Funding Date has not occurred prior
to March 1, 2020, such redetermination shall be conducted as soon as practicable following the Initial Funding Date after the Administrative Agent has had a reasonable opportunity to determine the proposed Borrowing Base). In addition, (i)(A)
the Borrower may, by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof, elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined once between any two (2) consecutive Scheduled Redeterminations (and once prior to the first Scheduled Redetermination
hereunder); and (B) the Administrative Agent may, following the first Scheduled Redetermination hereunder, at the direction of the Required Lenders, by notifying the Borrower thereof, elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined once
between any two (2) consecutive Scheduled Redeterminations and (ii) the Borrower may elect, by notifying the Administrative Agent of any acquisition or acquisitions (including in connection with the designation of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary) of Oil and Gas Properties by the Borrower or any other Credit Party with a PV-9 in the aggregate of at least seven and one half percent (7.50%) of the then effective
Borrowing Base, to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined between two (2) consecutive Scheduled Redeterminations. Each redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is referred to herein as an
“Interim Redetermination” and shall be effectuated in accordance with this Section 2.07. 

(c)    Scheduled and Interim Redetermination Procedure. 

(i)    Each Scheduled Redetermination and each Interim Redetermination shall be effectuated as follows: upon receipt by
the Administrative Agent of (A) the Reserve Report and the Reserve Report Certificate, in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination, pursuant to Section 8.11(a) and (c), and, in the case of an Interim
Redetermination, pursuant to Section 8.11(b) and (c), and (B) such other reports, data and supplemental information, including, without limitation, the information provided pursuant to
Section 8.11(c), as may, from time to time, be reasonably requested by any Lender (the Reserve Report, such Reserve Report Certificate and such other reports, data and supplemental information being the “Engineering
Reports”), the 

  
 57 

 
Administrative Agent shall evaluate the information contained in the Engineering Reports and shall, in good faith and its sole discretion, propose a new Borrowing Base (the “Proposed
Borrowing Base”) based upon such information and such other information (including, without limitation, the status of title information with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties as described in the Engineering Reports and the existence of
any other Debt, the Credit Parties’ other assets (including midstream assets), liabilities, fixed charges, cash flow, business, properties, prospects, management and ownership, hedged and unhedged exposure to price, price and production
scenarios, interest rate and operating cost changes) as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its sole discretion and consistent with its usual and customary oil and gas lending criteria as it exists at the particular time. In no event shall
the Proposed Borrowing Base exceed the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts; 
 (ii)    The Administrative Agent shall
notify the Lenders of the Proposed Borrowing Base (the “Proposed Borrowing Base Notice”) after the Administrative Agent has received complete Engineering Reports from the Borrower and has had a reasonable opportunity to determine
the Proposed Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 2.07(c)(i); and 
 (iii)    Any
Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved by all of the Lenders as provided in this Section 2.07(c)(iii); and any Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain
the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved or be deemed to have been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in this Section 2.07(c)(iii) (in each case, in each Lender’s sole discretion consistent with its
usual and customary oil and gas lending criteria as they exist at the particular time). Upon receipt of the Proposed Borrowing Base Notice, each Lender shall have fifteen (15) days to agree with the Proposed Borrowing Base or disagree with the
Proposed Borrowing Base by proposing an alternate Borrowing Base. If, in the case of any Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect, at the end of such fifteen (15) days, any Lender has not
communicated its approval or disapproval in writing to the Administrative Agent, such silence shall be deemed to be an approval of the Proposed Borrowing Base. If, in the case of any Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base
then in effect, at the end of such fifteen (15) days, any Lender has not communicated its approval or disapproval in writing to the Administrative Agent, such silence shall be deemed to be a disapproval of the Proposed Borrowing Base. If, at
the end of such fifteen (15) day period, all of the Lenders in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, or the Required Lenders, in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or
maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect, have approved or, in the case of a decrease or reaffirmation, deemed to have approved, as aforesaid, then the Proposed Borrowing Base shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in
Section 2.07(d). If, however, at the end of such fifteen (15) day period, all of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, have not approved or, in the case of a decrease or reaffirmation, deemed to have
approved, as aforesaid, then the Administrative Agent shall poll the Lenders to ascertain the highest Borrowing Base then acceptable to (A) in the case of a decrease or reaffirmation, a number of Lenders sufficient to constitute the Required
Lenders and (B) in the case of an increase, all of the Lenders, and such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in Section 2.07(d) (it being understood that, if a Lender proposes an
alternative Borrowing Base in connection with is disapproval of the Borrowing Base, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to separately poll such Lender). 

  
 58 

 (d)    Effectiveness of a Redetermined Borrowing Base.
After a redetermined Borrowing Base is approved or is deemed to have been approved by all of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(iii), the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower and the Lenders of the amount of the redetermined Borrowing Base (the “New Borrowing Base Notice”), and such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders: 
 (i)    in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination,
(A) if the Administrative Agent shall have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.11(a) and (c) in a timely and complete manner, on or about each
March 1st or September 1st (beginning on March 1, 2020) (or, in each case, such date promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable), as
applicable, following such notice, or (B) if the Administrative Agent shall not have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.11(a) and (c) in a timely
and complete manner, then on the next Business Day succeeding delivery of such notice; and 
 (ii)    in the case of an
Interim Redetermination, on the next Business Day succeeding delivery of such notice. 
 Such amount shall then become the Borrowing Base
until the next Scheduled Redetermination Date, the next Interim Redetermination Date or the next adjustment to the Borrowing Base under Sections 2.07(e), (f) or 8.12(c), whichever occurs first. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Scheduled Redetermination or Interim Redetermination shall become effective until the New Borrowing Base Notice related thereto is received by the Borrower. 

(e)    Automatic Reduction of Borrowing Base upon Sale of Properties or Termination of
Swap Agreements. In addition to the other redeterminations or adjustments of the Borrowing Base provided for herein, if at any time the sum of (i)(A) any midstream assets given value in the most recently delivered Reserve Report, for
which the then existing Borrowing Base was determined, and that are sold, disposed of or subject to a casualty event and (B) the aggregate PV-9 (calculated using the Bank Price Deck in effect at the time
of the most recent redetermination) of Borrowing Base Properties sold, disposed of or subject to a casualty event and (ii) the Swap PV (calculated using the Bank Price Deck in effect at the time of the most recent redetermination) of Swap
Agreements in respect of commodities terminated or otherwise monetized (when taken together with any other Swap Agreements executed by the Credit Parties contemporaneously with the termination or monetization of such Swap Agreements subsequent to
the last redetermination of the Borrowing Base or adjustment in accordance with this Section 2.07(e)), in each case pursuant to Section 9.09(d), in any period since the most recent redetermination
of the Borrowing Base or adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Section 2.07(e), exceeds 7.50% of the Borrowing Base then in effect, then the Borrowing Base shall be automatically reduced by an amount equal to
the Borrowing Base Value (as proposed by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Required Lenders) of such Properties sold, disposed of or lost and such Swap Agreements terminated or otherwise monetized and such reduction of the Borrowing Base
shall take into account (x) the value of concurrent acquisitions of Oil and Gas Properties (1) for which Engineering Reports and such other information as the Administrative 

  
 59 

 
Agent may have requested have been delivered by the Borrower and (2) which have been given value by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders or (y) any other Swap Agreements
executed by the Credit Parties contemporaneously with the termination or monetization of such Swap Agreements contemporaneously with the termination or monetization of such Swap Agreements, and, in each case, the Borrowing Base as so reduced shall
become the new Borrowing Base immediately upon such sale or disposition (or, in the case of a Swap Agreement, termination or other monetization), effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline
Lenders and the Lenders until the next redetermination or other adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Agreement. 

(f)    Automatic Reduction of Borrowing Base upon Issuance of Specified Additional Debt. In
addition to the other redeterminations of and adjustments to the Borrowing Base provided for herein, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon the issuance or incurrence of any Specified Additional Debt, the Borrowing Base
shall be automatically reduced by an amount equal to 25% of the aggregate stated principal amount of such Specified Additional Debt (without regard to any original issue discount issued at such time). Such decrease in the Borrowing Base shall occur
automatically upon the incurrence of such Specified Additional Debt on the date of incurrence, without any vote of the Lenders or action by the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, if such Specified Additional Debt is being incurred in
order to refinance outstanding Specified Additional Debt, then the foregoing automatic reduction shall only apply to the portion of the newly issued or incurred Specified Additional Debt that is in excess of the sum of (i) the principal amount
of the Specified Additional Debt so refinanced, (ii) amounts to fund any original issue discount or upfront fees relating to such newly issued or incurred Specified Additional Debt and (iii) amounts to fund interest, premium and expenses
thereon. The Borrowing Base so reduced shall become the new Borrowing Base immediately upon the date of such issuance or incurrence, effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the
Lenders on such date until the next redetermination or other adjustment of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Agreement. Upon any such reduction in the Borrowing Base, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a New Borrowing Base Notice to
the Borrower and the Lenders. 
 (g)    Reduction of Borrowing Base Related to Title. If the Administrative Agent
or Required Lenders have adjusted the Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 8.12(c), so that, after giving effect to such reduction, the Borrower will satisfy the requirements of Section 8.12,
the new Borrowing Base will become effective immediately after the receipt of the notice delivered by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.12(c). 

Section 2.08    Letters of Credit. 

(a)    General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of
dollar denominated Letters of Credit for its own account or for the account of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during
the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed the LC Commitment; provided that the Borrower may not request the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of Letters of Credit hereunder if a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists at
such time or would exist as a result thereof. In the event of 

  
 60 

 
any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or
entered into by the Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 

(b)    Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the
issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the
applicable Issuing Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (not less than five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period agreed to by such Issuing Bank) in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension) a notice: 
 (i)    requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit or identifying the Letter of Credit to
be amended, renewed or extended; 
 (ii)    specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which
shall be a Business Day); 
 (iii)    specifying the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall
comply with Section 2.08(c)); 
 (iv)    specifying the amount of such Letter of Credit; 

(v)    specifying the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to
prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit; and 
 (vi)    specifying the amount of the then effective
Borrowing Base and the then effective Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts and whether a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists at such time, the current total Revolving Credit Exposures (without regard to the requested Letter of Credit or the requested
amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), and the total Revolving Credit Exposures (giving pro forma effect to the requested Letter of Credit or the requested amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of
Credit). 
 Each notice shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension, as applicable, (x) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Commitment, (y) each Issuing Bank’s individual LC Exposure shall not exceed such Issuing Bank’s LC Issuance Limit and (z) the total Revolving
Credit Exposures shall not exceed the then effective Loan Limit. 
 No Issuing Bank shall issue any Letters of Credit unless such Issuing Bank shall have
received notice from the Administrative Agent that the conditions to such issuance have been met, which notice shall be deemed given (i) if such Issuing Bank has not received notice from the Administrative Agent that the conditions to such
issuance have been met within two (2) Business Days after the date of the applicable request or (ii) if the aggregate stated amount of Letters of 

  
 61 

 
Credit issued by such Issuing Bank then outstanding does not exceed the amount theretofore agreed to by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent
has not otherwise notified such Issuing Bank that it may no longer rely on clause (1). 
 If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank,
the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that, in the event of any conflict between such application or any Letter
of Credit Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 
 (c)    Expiration
Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) (x) in the case of Letters of Credit issued in favor of the Texas Railroad Commission, the date that is eighteen (18) months after the
date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, eighteen (18) months after such renewal or extension) or (y) in the case of any other Letters of Credit, the date that is twelve
(12) months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve (12) months after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior
to the Maturity Date. If the Borrower so requests in any applicable notice given pursuant to Section 2.08(b) and the applicable Issuing Bank agrees to do so, such Issuing Bank may issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic
renewal provisions; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions must permit the applicable Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve (12) month period (or, with
respect to Letters of Credit issued to the Texas Railroad Commission, eighteen (18) 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 in each
such twelve (12) month period or such eighteen (18) month period, as applicable, to be agreed upon by the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank at the time such Letter of Credit is issued and any such Letter of Credit may not have an
expiration date later than the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date (except to the extent cash collateralized or backstopped at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date pursuant to arrangements
reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank). Once any such Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Bank to permit
the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date; provided, further, that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any such renewal if (A) such Issuing
Bank has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form 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
two (2) Business Days before the date that such Issuing Bank is permitted to send a notice of non-renewal from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Section 6.03 is not then satisfied. 
 (d)    Participations.
By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (including any amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each
Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn

  
 62 

 
under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
such Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.08(e), or of any reimbursement
payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.08(d) in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute
and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default, the existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency or
reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(e)    Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the
Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have
received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, on the
Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice; provided that the Borrower shall, subject to the conditions to Borrowing set forth herein, be deemed to have requested, and the Borrower does hereby request
under such circumstances, that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR
Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in
Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08(e), the
Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this Section 2.08(e) to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such
Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.08(e) to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above)
shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

(f)    Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in
Section 2.08(e) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any
lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision herein or therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged,

  
 63 

 
fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit Agreement, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that
might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.08(f), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders nor the Issuing Banks, nor any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder
(irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit
(including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed
to excuse an Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by
the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the
absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised all requisite care in each such determination. In
furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, each Issuing Bank
may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if
such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 
 (g)    Disbursement
Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve
the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse any Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 

(h)    Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, until the Borrower shall have
reimbursed such Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement (either with its own funds or a Borrowing under Section 2.08(e)), the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC
Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.08(h) shall be for the
account of such Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.08(e) to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of
such payment. Annex II shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in 

  
 64 

 
Section 12.04, be amended upon the written agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any successor Issuing Bank to set forth such Issuing Bank’s LC
Issuance Limit, and no successor Issuing Bank shall be an “Issuing Bank” hereunder until such amendment is effective. 

(i)    Replacement of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement
among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become
effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.05(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing
Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such
successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall
continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. Annex II shall
be amended upon the written agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any successor Issuing Bank to set forth such Issuing Bank’s LC Issuance Limit, and no successor Issuing Bank shall be an “Issuing Bank” hereunder
until such amendment is effective. 
 (j)    Cash Collateralization. If (i) any Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.08(j), (ii) the LC Exposure exceeds the LC
Commitment at any time or (iii) the Borrower is required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to an LC Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant to Section 3.04(c), then the Borrower
shall deposit, in the case of clause (i) or (ii), on demand, or in the case of clause (iii), by the date specified therefor in Section 3.04(c), in an account with the
Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to, in the case of an Event of Default, the LC Exposure, in the case of the LC Exposure exceeding the LC Commitment, the amount
of such excess, and in the case of a payment required by Section 3.04(c), the amount of such excess as provided in Section 3.04(c), as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest
thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event
of Default with respect to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary described in Section 10.01(h) or Section 10.01(i). The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of
the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, an exclusive first priority and continuing perfected security interest in and Lien on such account and all cash, checks, drafts, certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time deposited or held in such
account, all deposits or wire transfers made thereto, any and all investments purchased with funds deposited in such account, all interest, dividends, cash, instruments, financial assets and other Property from time to time received, receivable or
otherwise payable in respect of, or in exchange for, any or all of the foregoing, and all proceeds, products, accessions, rents, profits, income and benefits therefrom, and any substitutions and replacements therefor. The Borrower’s obligation
to deposit 

  
 65 

 
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08(j) shall be absolute and unconditional, without regard to whether any beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit has attempted to
draw down all or a portion of such amount under the terms of a Letter of Credit, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be subject to any defense or be affected by a right of
set-off, counterclaim or recoupment which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may now or hereafter have against any such beneficiary, the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever. Such deposit shall be held as collateral securing the payment and performance of the Borrower’s and the Guarantor’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent
shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the
Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative
Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time
or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral
hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, and the Borrower is not otherwise required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to an LC Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant to
Section 3.04(c), then such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 

(k)    LC Exposure Determination. For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that,
by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases,
whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination. 
 (l)    Reports from
Issuing Banks. Each Issuing Bank (other than the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates) shall, at least once each week, provide the Administrative Agent with a list of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank that are
outstanding at such time; provided that, upon written request from the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank shall thereafter notify the Administrative Agent in writing on each Business Day of all Letters of Credit issued on the prior
Business Day by such Issuing Bank. 
 Section 2.09    Swingline Loans. 

(a)    Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Swingline Lender agrees to make
Swingline Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period; provided that after giving effect to any amount requested, the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the then effective Loan Limit, the aggregate
principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans (after giving effect to any amount requested), shall not exceed the lesser of (x) $30,000,000 and (y) the Loan Limit; and provided, further, that no Swingline Loan

  
 66 

 
may be requested to refinance any outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow the
Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swingline Loan, each Lender with a Commitment shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swingline Lenders a
risk participation in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swingline Loan. The commitments of the Swingline Lenders to make Swingline Loans is part of, and not in
addition to, the Commitments. 
 (b)    Borrowing Procedures. Each Borrowing of Swingline Loans may be
made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the applicable Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the applicable Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent not
later than 12:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the requested
borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the applicable Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in substantially the form of
Exhibit B and signed by the Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the applicable Swingline Lender of any telephonic Borrowing Request, such Swingline Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the
Administrative Agent has also received such Borrowing Request and, if not, the applicable Swingline Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
applicable Swingline Lender will, not later than 2:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on the borrowing date specified in such Borrowing Request, make the amount of its Swingline Loan available to the Borrower; provided that the applicable
Swingline Lender shall only make such Swingline Loan available to the Borrower if (A) the applicable Swingline Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior
to 2:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing of Swingline Loans that the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.09(a) would not be violated by the
making of such Swingline Loan and (B) the Borrower has certified that each of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.03 have been satisfied. 

Each Swingline Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue any Swingline Loan if: (x) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority
or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Swingline Lender from making Swingline Loans, or any law applicable to such Swingline Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any
Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Swingline Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Swingline Lender refrain from, the making of swingline loans generally or the Swingline Loans in particular or shall impose upon such Swingline
Lender with respect to the Swingline Loans any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Swingline Lender any
unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Swingline Lender in good faith deems material to it, or (y) the issuance of such Swingline Loans would violate one or more policies of such
Swingline Lender applicable to swingline loans generally. 

  
 67 

 (c)    Repayment and Refinancing. 

(i)    Any Swingline Lender at any time in its sole discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby
irrevocably authorizes such Swingline Lender to so request on their behalf), that each Lender make a Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding. Additionally, if a Swingline
Loan is not repaid by Borrower on or before the date required for such Swingline Loan under Section 3.01, Borrower shall, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.03 herein, be deemed to
have requested, and the Borrower does hereby request under such circumstances, that such Swingline Loan be refinanced with an ABR Borrowing of Loans in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to repay such
Swingline Loan shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing of Loans. If the Borrower does not repay a Swingline Loan when due, and instead requests (or is deemed to have requested pursuant to the terms hereof) that such payment
be refinanced with a Loan, (A) the Administrative Agent shall request that each Lender make a Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of such Swingline Loan and (B) Borrower’s failure to repay
such Swingline Loan on the date required by Section 3.01 shall not constitute a payment Default hereunder. Any such request hereunder from the Administrative Agent shall be made in writing (which written request shall be
deemed to be a Borrowing Request for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.03, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02(c) for the
principal amount of such Loans, but subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.03, and provided that after giving effect to such Borrowing, the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the then
effective Loan Limit. The applicable Swingline Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Borrowing Request promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its
Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Borrowing Request available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply cash collateral available with respect to the applicable Swingline
Loan) for the account of the Swingline Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s office not later than 1:00 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on the day specified in such Borrowing Request, whereupon, subject to
Section 2.09(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swingline Lenders. 

(ii)    If for any reason any Swingline Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Loan in accordance with
Section 2.09(c)(i), the request for Loans submitted by such Swingline Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by such Swingline Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant
Swingline Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. 

(iii)    If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Swingline Lender any
amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.09(c) by the time specified in Section 2.09(c)(i), such Swingline Lender shall be entitled to
recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment 

  
 68 

 
is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Swingline Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined
by such Swingline Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Swingline Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender
pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swingline Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of such
Swingline Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(iv)    Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swingline Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.09(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have
against any Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any
of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.09(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.03. No such
funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swingline Loans, together with interest as provided herein. 

(d)    Repayment of Participations. 

(i)    At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swingline Loan, if any Swingline
Lender receives any payment on account of such Swingline Loan, such Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such
Lender’s risk participation was funded) thereof in the same funds as those received by such Swingline Lender. 

(ii)    If any payment received by any Swingline Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swingline Loan is
required to be returned by such Swingline Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 12.05(b) (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Swingline Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall
pay to the applicable Swingline Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal
Funds Effective Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of any Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Indebtedness and the termination of this
Agreement. 
 (e)    Interest for Account of Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lenders shall be
responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swingline Loans. Until each Lender funds its Loans or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.09 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any
Swingline Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swingline Lenders. 

  
 69 

 (f)    Payments Directly to Swingline Lenders. The
Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swingline Loans directly to the Swingline Lenders. 

(g)    Resignation of a Swingline Lender. Any Swingline Lender may resign at any time by giving thirty
(30) days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. After the resignation of a Swingline Lender hereunder, the retiring Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights
and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to make any additional Swingline Loans. 

Section 2.10    Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, and any Fronting Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a)    any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of
such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 10.02(c) or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 12.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent
hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ LC Exposure with respect to
such Defaulting Lender in accordance with this Section 2.10; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting
Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro
rata in order to (i) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (ii) cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future LC Exposure with respect to such
Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any
other Loan Document; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such
Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent
jurisdiction; provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (ii) such Loans were
made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.03 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied 

  
 70 

 
solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans
of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure and Swingline Loans are held by
the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.10(c). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting
Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto; 

(b)    the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether
the Majority Lenders or Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.02); provided that this clause
(b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby; 

(c)    if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

(i)    all or any part of such Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than the portion of
such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term) shall automatically be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages but only to the extent any non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure does not exceed its Commitment; 

(ii)    if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be
effected, the Borrower shall, within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent(A) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and (B) second cash collateralize such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.08(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

 (iii)    if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to
clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.05(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such
Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv)    if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.05(a) and
Section 3.05(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; or 

  
 71 

 (v)    if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC
Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Banks or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have
been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) under Section 3.05(a) and letter of credit fees payable under
Section 3.05(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and 

(d)    so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lenders shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan
and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.10(c), and Swingline Exposure related to any newly made Swingline Loan or LC
Exposure related to any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.10(c)(i) (and such Defaulting
Lender shall not participate therein). 
 If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a
Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more
other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lenders or
the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to such Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

 In the event that each of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, each Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that a Defaulting Lender has
adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure 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 Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. 

ARTICLE III 

PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST; PREPAYMENTS; FEES 

Section 3.01    Repayment of Loans. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Termination Date. The Borrower shall repay each Swingline Loan (or refinance such Swingline Loan with a Loan pursuant to
Section 2.09(c)) on the earlier to occur of the date that is ten (10) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made and the Termination Date.

 Section 3.02    Interest. 

(a)    ABR Loans. The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Margin, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. 
 (b)    Eurodollar
Loans. The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. 

(c)    Post-Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Event of Default of the type
described in Section 10.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) occurs, then (i) all outstanding overdue principal shall automatically bear interest at the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto
(including Applicable Margin) plus 2.00% per annum and (ii) overdue interest, fees, expenses and other amounts under the Loan Documents shall automatically bear interest at the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in
Section 3.02(a) (including Applicable Margin) plus 2.00% per annum, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. All interest provided for under this Section 3.02(c) shall be due and
payable on demand by the Administrative Agent (and if no express demand is made, on the dates such interest or such other amounts are otherwise due under this Agreement). For purposes of clarity, upon an Event of Default of the type described in
Section 10.01(h) or (i), all outstanding principal shall be deemed overdue for purposes of this Section 3.02(c). 

(d)    Interest Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment
Date for such Loan and on the Termination Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 3.02(c) shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other
than an optional prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the Termination Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any
Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e)    Interest Rate Computations. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred
sixty (360) days, unless such computation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days (or three hundred
sixty-six (366) days in a leap year), except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis
of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days (or three hundred sixty-six (366) days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first
day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and be binding upon the parties
hereto. 

  
 73 

 Section 3.03    Changed Circumstances. 

(a)    Circumstances Affecting LIBO Rate Availability. Subject to clause (c) below,
in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing or a conversion to or continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason prior to the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or any Early Opt-in
Election (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable
amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted
LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate for such Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Borrowing or (iii) the Majority Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Adjusted LIBO
Rate or LIBO Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders.
Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Borrowings and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue
any Loan as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be suspended, and the Borrower shall either (A) repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such Eurodollar Borrowing together with accrued interest
thereon (subject to Section 12.12), on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Borrowing; or (B) convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such Eurodollar Borrowing to
an ABR Borrowing as of the last day of such Interest Period. 
 (b)    Laws Affecting LIBO Rate
Availability. If, after the date hereof and prior to the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable law or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective lending offices)
with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective lending offices) to
honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrower and the other Lenders.
Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Borrowings, and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to a Eurodollar
Borrowing or continue any Loan as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be suspended and thereafter the Borrower may select only ABR Borrowings and (ii) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain a Eurodollar Borrowing to the end of the
then current Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable Loan shall immediately be converted to an ABR Borrowing for the remainder of such Interest Period. 

  
 74 

 (c)    Effect of Benchmark Transition Event. 

(i) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a
Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such
amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 P.M. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent
has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders; provided that, with respect to any proposed amendment containing any SOFR-Based Rate, the Lenders shall be
entitled to object only to the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment contained therein. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the
Majority Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Majority Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of the Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this
Section 3.03(c) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. 
 (ii) Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. 

(iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the
Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (B) the
implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (D) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that
may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.03(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or
non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and
without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.03(c). 

(iv) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability
Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Borrowings to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be
deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to ABR Borrowings. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate will not be used in
any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. 

  
 75 

 Section 3.04    Prepayments. 

(a)    Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any
Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 3.04(b). 

(b)    Notice and Terms of Optional Prepayment. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone
(confirmed by facsimile or other electronic transmission acceptable to the Administrative Agent) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, three
(3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment, or (iii) in the case of
prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each
Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.06(b), then such
notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.06(b). Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise
the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each
prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 3.02 and any break funding payments
required by Section 5.02. 
 (c)    Mandatory Prepayments. 

(i)    If, after giving effect to any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to
Section 2.06(b) or any reduction in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts pursuant to Section 2.06(c), the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds the then effective Loan Limit, then the
Borrower shall (A) prepay the Borrowings of Loans on the date of such termination or reduction in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Borrowings of Loans as a result
of an LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders an amount equal to such excess to be held as cash collateral as provided in Section 2.08(j). 

(ii)    Upon any redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.07(c) or any
adjustment to the amount of the Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 8.12(c), if the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the Loan Limit after giving effect to the redetermined or adjusted Borrowing Base, then the
Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days after written notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower of such Borrowing Base Deficiency, notify the Administrative Agent of its election to take one or more of the following actions to
cure the Borrowing Base Deficiency and shall take such actions within the periods specified herein: (A) deliver to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days after receipt of such election, petroleum engineering information and
Mortgages covering additional Oil and Gas 

  
 76 

 
Properties of the Credit Parties not previously included in the immediately preceding Reserve Report with a value and quality satisfactory to the Lenders in their sole discretion sufficient to
eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency (together with title information acceptable to the Administrative Agent covering at least 85% of the PV-9 of such Oil and Gas Properties within the earlier of
(x) sixty (60) days after the receipt of such election to cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency and (y) the period set forth in Section 8.12(a)) or (B) prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount
equal to such excess, and if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Borrowings as a result of an LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders an amount equal to such excess to be held as cash collateral as provided in
Section 2.08(j). The Borrower may make such prepayment either, at its election, (1) in one lump sum payment on or before the date that is thirty (30) days following such election of the method to cure the
Borrowing Base Deficiency or (2) in six (6) equal payments, the first of which being due on the date that is thirty (30) days following the date of receipt by the Borrower of the notice from the Administrative Agent of such Borrowing
Base Deficiency and each subsequent payment being due and payable on the same day in each of the subsequent calendar months; provided that all payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 3.04(c)(ii) must be
made on or prior to the Termination Date. The Borrower may also undertake a combination of clauses (A) or (B); provided that the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the Borrower’s
election in respect of clauses (A) or (B) of the immediately preceding sentence within ten (10) days following the receipt of the New Borrowing Base Notice in accordance with
Section 2.07(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to make an election within the periods specified herein shall be deemed to be an election prepay the Borrowing in accordance with
Section 3.04(c)(ii)(B) in one lump sum payment and in the time period specified in option (1) hereof. 

(iii)    Upon any adjustment to the amount of the Borrowing Base in accordance with
Section 2.07(e) or (f), if the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the Borrowing Base after giving effect to such Borrowing Base adjustment, then the Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days of the New
Borrowing Base Notice, (A) prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Borrowings as a result of an LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Lenders an amount equal to such excess to be held as cash collateral as provided in Section 2.08(j). The Borrower shall be obligated to make such prepayment in one lump sum payment. 

(iv)    Each prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to this Section 3.04(c) shall be applied,
first, ratably to any Swingline Loans then outstanding, second, ratably to any ABR Borrowings then outstanding, and, third, to any Eurodollar Borrowings then outstanding, and if more than one Eurodollar Borrowing is then
outstanding, to each such Eurodollar Borrowing in order of priority beginning with the Eurodollar Borrowing with the least number of days remaining in the Interest Period applicable thereto and ending with the Eurodollar Borrowing with the most
number of days remaining in the Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 (v)    Each prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to
this Section 3.04(c) shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowings. Prepayments pursuant to this Section 3.04(c) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent
required by Section 3.02. 

  
 77 

 (d)    No Premium or Penalty. Prepayments permitted or required
under this Section 3.04 shall be without premium or penalty, except as required under Section 5.02. 

Section 3.05    Fees. 

(a)    Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender
a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Initial Funding Date to but excluding the
Termination Date; provided that the amount of outstanding Swingline Loans shall not be considered usage of the Commitments for the purpose of calculating such fee. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March,
June, September and December of each year and on the Termination Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Initial Funding Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days,
unless such computation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days (or three hundred sixty-six
(366) days in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(b)    Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in each outstanding Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans on the average
daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Initial Funding Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such
Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Initial Funding Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases
to be any LC Exposure; provided that in no event shall such fee be less than $500 during any fiscal year, and (iii) to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, its standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following
the last day of such month end, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Initial Funding Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the Termination Date and any such fees accruing after the Termination Date shall be
payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 3.05(b) shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis
of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days, unless such computation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days (or three hundred sixty-six (366) days in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

  
 78 

 (c)    Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times set forth in the Agency Fee Letter or as otherwise agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

(d)    Defaulting Lender Fees. Subject to Section 2.10, the Borrower shall not be
obligated to pay the Administrative Agent any Defaulting Lender’s ratable share of the fees described in Section 3.05(a) and (b) for the period commencing on the day such Defaulting Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender and continuing for so long as such Lender continues to be a Defaulting Lender. 

Section 3.06    Extension of Maturity Date. 

(a)    The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Request”), which
shall promptly notify the Lenders, request extensions of the Maturity Date applicable to the Commitments (the “Extended Loans”) to a date specified in such Extension Request. 

(b)    The Extension Request shall specify the date on which the Borrower proposes that the extension shall be effective,
which shall be a date reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Within the time period specified in such Extension Request, each applicable Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent whether it consents to such extension (which consent
may be given or withheld in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion). Any Lender not responding within the above time period shall be deemed not to have consented to such extension. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower
and the applicable Lenders of such Lenders’ responses. 
 (c)    The maturity date applicable to any Commitments
shall be extended only with respect to such Extended Loans held by such Lenders that have consented thereto (the Lenders that so consent being the “Extending Lenders” and the Lenders that declined being the “Non-Extending Lenders”) (it being understood and agreed that, except for the consents of Extending Lenders no other consents shall be required hereunder for such extensions). If so extended, the scheduled
maturity date with respect to the Commitments held by the Extending Lenders shall be extended to the date specified in the Extension Request, which shall become the maturity date of the applicable Commitments (such date, the “Extended
Maturity Date”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm to the applicable Extending Lenders and Non-Extending Lenders such extension, specifying the effective date of such extension (the
“Extension Effective Date”) and the Extended Maturity Date (after giving effect to such extension) applicable to the Extending Lenders. 

(d)    The proposed terms of the Extended Loans to be established shall (i) be identical as offered to each Lender
and (ii) be identical to the existing Commitments from which such Extended Loans are to be amended, except that: (A) the maturity date of the Extended Loans shall be later than the maturity date of the existing Commitments and (B) the
Administrative Agent and the Extending Lenders may receive customary fees in consideration for the extension of the Extended Loans. 

  
 79 

 (e)    As a condition precedent to such extension, the Borrower shall
deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions, certificates or other documents (including, without limitation, a resolution duly adopted by the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of each Credit Party authorizing such
extension) reasonably requested by Administrative Agent and the Extending Lenders and a certificate stating that before and after giving effect to such extension, the representations and warranties made by any Credit Party in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents are true and correct in all respects and that no Event of Default or Borrowing Base Deficiency exists as of the Extension Effective Date. 

(f)    Notwithstanding the terms of Section 12.02, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled (without the consent of any other Lenders except to the extent required under clause (b) above) to enter into any amendments to this Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, that the Administrative Agent believes are necessary to appropriately reflect, or provide for the integration of, any extension of the maturity date and other amendments applicable to any Extended Loans pursuant to this
Section 3.06. 
 ARTICLE IV 

PAYMENTS; PRO RATA TREATMENT; SHARING OF SET-OFFS 

Section 4.01    Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing
of Set-offs. 
 (a)    Payments by the Borrower. The Borrower
shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03 or otherwise) prior to 12:00
noon, Houston, Texas time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without defense, deduction, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Fees, once paid, shall be fully earned and shall not be
refundable under any circumstances. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest
thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices specified in Section 12.01, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as expressly provided herein and
except that payments pursuant to Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03 and 12.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the
account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and,
in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. 

(b)    Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the
Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 

  
 80 

 (c)    Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender
shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans
resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then
the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such
payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any
such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the
provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as
consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to
which the provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant
to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the
amount of such participation. 
 Section 4.02    Presumption of Payment by the
Borrower. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank 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 Bank, 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 Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to
such Lender or Issuing Bank 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. 

Section 4.03    Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender
shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.05(a), 2.08(d), 2.08(e) or 4.01, or otherwise hereunder, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any
contrary provision hereof), apply any 

  
 81 

 
amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are
fully paid. If at any time prior to the acceleration or maturity of the Loans, the Administrative Agent shall receive any payment in respect of principal of a Loan or a reimbursement of an LC Disbursement while one or more Defaulting Lenders shall
be party to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall apply such payment first to the Borrowing(s) for which such Defaulting Lender(s) shall have failed to fund its pro rata share until such time as such Borrowing(s) are paid in full or each
Lender (including each Defaulting Lender) is owed its Applicable Percentage of the Loans then outstanding, as applicable. After acceleration or maturity of the Loans, all principal will be paid ratably as provided in
Section 10.02(c). 
 Section 4.04    Disposition of Proceeds. The
Security Instruments contain an assignment by the Borrower and/or the Guarantors unto and in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties of all of the Borrower’s or each Guarantor’s interest in and to
production and all proceeds attributable thereto which may be produced from or allocated to the Mortgaged Property. The Security Instruments further provide in general for the application of such proceeds to the satisfaction of the Indebtedness and
other obligations described therein and secured thereby. Notwithstanding the assignment contained in such Security Instruments, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, (a) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that they will
neither notify the purchaser or purchasers of such production nor take any other action to cause such proceeds to be remitted to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, but the Lenders will instead permit such proceeds to be paid to the Borrower
and its Restricted Subsidiaries and (b) the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to take such actions as may be necessary to cause such proceeds to be paid to the Borrower and/or such Restricted Subsidiaries. 

ARTICLE V 

INCREASED COSTS; BREAK FUNDING PAYMENTS; TAXES; ILLEGALITY 

Section 5.01    Increased Costs. 

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

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

(ii)    subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, or (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans,
loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 

(iii)    impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar
Loans made by such Lender; 

  
 82 

 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining
any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender will be entitled to demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction set forth in
this Section 5.01(a) to the extent that it is not the general practice and policy of such Lender to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers in similar circumstances under agreements containing provisions
permitting such compensation to be claimed at such time. 
 (b)    Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any
Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s
or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that
which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies
of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’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 Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender will be entitled to demand compensation for any increased
cost or reduction set forth in this Section 5.01(b) to the extent that it is not the general practice and policy of such Lender to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers in similar circumstances under
agreements containing provisions permitting such compensation to be claimed at such time. 
 (c)    Certificates.
A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, as specified in
Section 5.01(a) or (b) shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 (d)    Effect of Failure or Delay in
Requesting Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing
Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any increased costs or reductions incurred
more than three hundred sixty-five (365) days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, 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
such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the three hundred sixty-five (365) day period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

  
 83 

 Section 5.02    Break Funding Payments. In
the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan into an ABR
Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of
any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.04(b), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each
Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the
amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the
then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal
amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. 

A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section 5.02 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt
thereof. 
 Section 5.03    Taxes. 

(a)    Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any
Guarantor under any Loan Document shall be free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding
Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or
withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or any Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or
withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.03) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deduction or withholding been made. 

  
 84 

 (b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the
Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(c)    Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender
and the Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.03) payable
or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or
asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower (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. 
 (d)    Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender
shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative
Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.04(c) relating to
the maintenance of a Participant Register, and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the
Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the
Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (d). 

(e)    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or a Guarantor to a
Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.03, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a
copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(f)    Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably 

  
 85 

 
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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the
completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.03(f)(ii)(A), Section 5.03(f)(ii)(B) and Section 5.03(g) below) shall not be
required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(i)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 

(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the 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 reasonable request of the Withholding Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal
backup withholding Tax; 
 (B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the
reasonable request of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a
party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS
Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax
treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption
from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

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

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

  
 86 

 (4)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner,
executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, or IRS Form
W-8BEN-E (as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibits K-2 or K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one
or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit
K-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; and 
 (C)    any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes
a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a
reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required
to be made. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it
shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Withholding Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(g)    FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax
imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower and 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 and the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under
FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.03(g),
“FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously
delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(h)    On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall (and any successor or replacement
Administrative Agent shall, on or before the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder), deliver to the Borrower two (2) duly executed copies of either (i) IRS Form W-9, or (ii) IRS Form W-8ECI or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf) or IRS Form
W-8IMY (for all other 

  
 87 

 
payments), establishing that Borrower can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States, including Taxes imposed under
FATCA. 
 (i)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good
faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.03 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.03),
it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to
such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (i) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (i), in no
event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification
payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems
confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (j)    Survival. Each party’s obligations
under this Section 5.03 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 (k)    Defined Terms. For purposes of
this Section 5.03, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA and the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank. 

Section 5.04    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a)    Designation of Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.03, or if any Lender’s
obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans is suspended pursuant to Section 5.05, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to
assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections
5.01 or 5.03, as the case may be, in the future or would allow the Lender to make Eurodollar Loans and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such
Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

  
 88 

 (b)    Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.03, or
if any Lender’s obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans is suspended pursuant to Section 5.05, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender
hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in
Section 12.04(b), and each party hereto agrees that any such assignment or delegation pursuant to this Section 5.04(b) may be effected without the signature of the assigning Lender), all its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and 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 shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and
participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, 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 5.01 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 5.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting
Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if such Lender is a Secured Swap Provider
with any outstanding Swap Agreements with any Credit Party (to the extent obligations under such Swap Agreements constitute Indebtedness), unless on or prior thereto, all such Swap Agreements have been terminated or novated to another Person and
such Lender (or its Affiliate) shall have received payment of all amounts, if any, payable to it in connection with such termination or novation. 

Section 5.05    Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the
event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its applicable lending office to honor its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans either generally or having a particular Interest Period hereunder, then (a) such Lender shall promptly
notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof and such Lender’s obligation to make such Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended (the “Affected Loans”) until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain such
Eurodollar Loans and (b) all Affected Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender shall be made instead as ABR Loans (and, if such Lender so requests by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, all Affected Loans of such
Lender then outstanding shall be automatically converted into ABR Loans on the date specified by such Lender in such notice) and, to the extent that Affected Loans are so made as (or converted into) ABR Loans, all payments of principal which would
otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be applied instead to its ABR Loans.

 95 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.02, to
the extent any closing deliverables of Collateral (including the creation or perfection of any security interest) are not or cannot be provided on the Initial Funding Date (other than (i) a Lien on Collateral that may be perfected solely by the
filing of a financing statement under the UCC, (ii) the delivery of equity certificates (and related equity powers) of the Borrower and its material wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiaries that are part of the Collateral and (iii) delivery of

encumbering not less than 85% of the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the Initial Reserve Report)), then the provision of any such closing deliverables and/or the provision and/or perfection of
such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability and initial funding of the Loans on the Initial Funding Date but may instead be delivered and/or perfected within sixty (60) days (or such longer period as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably agree in its discretion) after the Initial Funding Date pursuant to arrangements to be mutually agreed by the Administrative Agent and Borrower, each acting reasonably.

and warranties (i) are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, on and as of the date of such Borrowing or the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, as applicable, such representations and
warranties shall continue to be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date or (ii) are already qualified by materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar qualification, in which case, such representations

applicable. 

  
 96 

 Each request for a Borrowing and each request for the issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension of any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower on the date thereof as to the matters specified in Section 6.03(a) and (b). 

ARTICLE VII 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

Each of the Borrower and Holdings (solely in respect of Sections 7.11, 7.13 and 7.21) represents and warrants to
the Lenders on each date specified in this Agreement for representations and warranties to be made or deemed made that: 

Section 7.01    Organization; Powers. Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries is
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority, and has all material governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary, to own
its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing (if applicable) in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required by Governmental Requirement, except where failure to
have such power, authority, licenses, authorizations, consents, approvals and qualifications or be in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 7.02    Authority; Enforceability. The Transactions are within the Borrower’s and
each Restricted Subsidiary’s corporate, limited liability company or partnership powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or partnership action, as applicable, and, if required, stockholder,
member or manager action (including, without limitation, any action required to be taken by any class of directors or managers of the Borrower or any other Person, whether interested or disinterested, in order to ensure the due authorization of the
Transactions). Each Loan Document to which the Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and such Restricted Subsidiary and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Borrower and such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, each enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to
general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

Section 7.03    Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any
consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any other third Person (including shareholders or any class of directors or managers, as applicable, whether interested or disinterested, of
the Borrower or any other Person), nor is any such consent, approval, registration, filing or other action necessary for the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except such as
have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect other than (i) the recording and filing 

  
 97 

 
of the Security Instruments as required by this Agreement and (ii) those third party approvals or consents which, if not made or obtained, would not cause a Default hereunder, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or do not have an adverse effect on the enforceability of the Loan Documents, (b) will not violate any applicable material provision of law or regulation or the charter, bylaws or other
Organizational Documents of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture in respect of Material Debt, agreement or other instrument binding
upon the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their Properties, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, except for violations that could not individually or in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (d) will not violate or result in a default under any Acquisition Document, and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Property of
the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Liens created by the Loan Documents).

(a)    The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders the Initial Financial Statements. The Initial Financial
Statements do not, taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading.

or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in the information delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(j) and as permitted under this Agreement and
adequate reserves for such items have been made in accordance with GAAP. 

Section 7.05    Litigation. 

(a)    Except as set forth on Schedule 7.05, there are no actions, suits, investigations or
proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing against the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary which are not fully covered by insurance (except for
customary deductibles) and that, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in any Material Adverse Effect. 

(b)    Since the Effective Date, there has been no change in the status of the matters disclosed in
Schedule 7.05 that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

Except for such matters as set forth on Schedule 7.06 or that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: 

(a)    The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and each of their respective Properties and respective operations

inquiries or proceedings concerning any violation of, or liability (including as a potentially responsible party) under, any applicable Environmental Laws pending or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against the Borrower or any

Environmental Laws at such Properties and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, none of such Properties are adversely affected by any Release or threatened Release of a Hazardous Material originating or emanating from any other real property, and no
Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary has filed or failed to file, any notice required of such Persons under applicable Environmental Law related to a reportable Release of Hazardous Materials; 

(f)    Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has received any written notice asserting an alleged liability
or obligation of the Borrower or any Restricted 

  
 99 

 
Subsidiary under any applicable Environmental Laws with respect to the investigation, remediation, abatement, removal, or monitoring of any Hazardous Materials at, under, or Released or

 (g)    There has been no exposure of any Person or Property to any Hazardous Materials as a result of or in
connection with the operations and businesses of Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary at any of the Borrower’s or its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Properties that could reasonably be expected to form the basis for a claim for damages or
compensation for which the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary would be liable under Environmental Laws; 

(h)    There are no conditions or circumstances associated with any of the Borrower’s, nor any Restricted
Subsidiary’s currently or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, previously owned or leased real properties that could reasonably be expected to give rise to the imposition of any material liabilities under any Environmental Laws against any Credit
Party as a result of any of their operations at such properties; and 
 (i)    The Borrower and its Restricted
Subsidiaries have made available to the Lenders complete and correct copies of all environmental site assessment reports, investigations, studies, analyses, and correspondence on environmental matters (including matters relating to any alleged non-compliance with or liability under Environmental Laws) requested by the Administrative Agent that are in any of the Borrower’s or the Restricted Subsidiaries’ possession or control and relating to

to it or its Property and all agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its Property, and possesses all licenses, permits, franchises, exemptions, approvals and other governmental authorizations necessary for the ownership of its Property
and the conduct of its business, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in
respect of Taxes and other governmental charges are, in the reasonable opinion of the Borrower, adequate. No material Tax Lien (other than Tax Liens that constitute Excepted Liens) has been filed. 

Section 7.10    ERISA. Except for such matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could
not reasonably be expected to have Material Adverse Effect: 
 (a)    The Borrower, its Restricted Subsidiaries and each
ERISA Affiliate have complied in all material respects with ERISA and, where applicable, the Code regarding each Plan.

Section 502 of ERISA or a tax imposed pursuant to Chapter 43 of Subtitle D of the Code or (ii) breach of fiduciary duty liability damages under Section 409 of ERISA.

 101 

 Section 7.11    Disclosure; No Material
Misstatements. 
 (a)    Each of Holdings and the Borrower has disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which it or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. None of the other reports, financial statements, certificates or other factual information furnished by or on behalf of Holdings, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender
or any of their Affiliates in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or delivered hereunder or under any other Loan Document (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), taken as a whole,
contains any untrue statement of material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading; provided that, with respect
to projected financial information, each of Holdings and the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by Holdings or the Borrower to be reasonable at the time it being understood that
(i) any such projected financial information is merely a prediction as to future events and its not to be viewed as fact, (ii) such projected financial information is subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which
are beyond the control of Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and (iii) no assurance can be given that any particular projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such
projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material. There are no statements or conclusions in any Reserve Report which are based upon or include materially misleading information or fail to take into
account material information regarding the matters reported therein, it being understood that projections concerning volumes attributable to the Oil and Gas Properties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and production and cost estimates
contained in each Reserve Report are necessarily based upon professional opinions, estimates and projections and that Holdings, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries do not warrant that such opinions, estimates and projections will ultimately
prove to have been accurate. 
 (b)    As of the Effective Date, to the knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower, as
applicable, the information included in the Beneficial Ownership Certification provided on or prior to the Effective Date to any Lender in connection with this Agreement is true and correct in all respects. 

Section 7.12    Insurance. The Borrower has, and has caused all of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to have with respect to its business and properties, (a) all insurance policies sufficient for the compliance by each of them with all material Governmental Requirements and all material agreements and (b) insurance coverage in at least
amounts and against such risk (including, without limitation, public liability) that are customarily insured against by business entities similarly situated and engaged in the same or a similar business for the assets and operations of the Borrower
and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as determined in the reasonable business judgment of the senior management of the Borrower). The Administrative Agent and the Lenders have (or will be substantially concurrently with the Initial Funding Date) been
named as additional insureds in respect of such liability insurance policies and the Administrative Agent has been named as lender loss payee and mortgagee with respect to Property loss insurance. 

  
 102 

 Section 7.13    Subsidiaries. Except as set
forth on Schedule 7.13 or as disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly furnish a copy to the Lenders), which shall be a supplement to Schedule 7.13, Holdings and the
Borrower have no Subsidiaries or Foreign Subsidiaries. Schedule 7.13 identifies each Subsidiary as either a Restricted Subsidiary or Unrestricted Subsidiary. As of the Initial Funding Date, each Subsidiary listed on
Schedule 7.13 is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary. 

Section 7.14    Properties; Titles, Etc. 

(a)    Except for Immaterial Title Deficiencies, each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries has good and
defensible title to the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (except for those Oil and Gas Properties that have been disposed of since the date of such Reserve Report in accordance with this Agreement or
leases which have expired in accordance with their terms) and valid title to all its material personal Properties, in each case, free and clear of all Liens except Liens permitted by Section 9.03. After giving full effect
to the Excepted Liens, the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiary specified as the owner owns the net interests in production attributable to the Hydrocarbon Interests as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (except for those Oil
and Gas Properties that have been disposed of since the date of such Reserve Report in accordance with this Agreement or leases which have expired in accordance with their terms), and the ownership of such Properties shall not in the aggregate in
any material respect obligate the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary to bear the costs and expenses relating to the maintenance, development and operations of each such Property in an amount in excess of the working interest of each Property set
forth in the most recently delivered Reserve Report that is not offset by a corresponding proportionate increase in the Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s net revenue interest in such Property. 

(b)    All material leases and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Restricted
Subsidiaries are valid and subsisting, in full force and effect, and there exists no default or event or circumstance which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would give rise to a default under any such lease or leases, which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c)    The rights and Properties presently owned,
leased or licensed by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries including, without limitation, all easements and rights of way, include all rights and Properties necessary to permit the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries to conduct their
business in all material respects in the same manner as its business has been conducted prior to the Initial Funding Date. 

(d)    All of the Properties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries which are reasonably necessary for the
operation of their businesses are in good working condition and are maintained in accordance with prudent business standards. 

(e)    The Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights,
patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Borrower and such Subsidiary does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the
aggregate, could 

  
 103 

 
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries either own or have valid licenses or other rights to use all databases, geological
data, geophysical data, engineering data, seismic data, maps, interpretations and other technical information used in their businesses as presently conducted, subject to the limitations contained in the agreements governing the use of the same,
which limitations are customary for companies engaged in the business of the exploration and production of Hydrocarbons, with such exceptions as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 7.15    Maintenance of Properties. Except for such acts or failures to act as
could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Oil and Gas Properties (and Properties unitized therewith) of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have been maintained, operated and developed in a good and workmanlike
manner and in conformity with all Governmental Requirements and in conformity with the provisions of all leases, subleases or other contracts comprising a part of the Hydrocarbon Interests and other contracts and agreements forming a part of the Oil
and Gas Properties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Specifically in connection with the foregoing, except for those as could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (a) no Oil and Gas Property of the
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is subject to having allowable production reduced below the full and regular allowable (including the maximum permissible tolerance) because of any overproduction (whether or not the same was permissible at the
time) and (b) none of the wells comprising a part of the Oil and Gas Properties (or Properties unitized therewith) of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is deviated from the vertical more than the maximum permitted by Governmental
Requirements, and such wells are, in fact, bottomed under and are producing from, and the well bores are wholly within, the Oil and Gas Properties (or in the case of wells located on Properties unitized therewith, such unitized Properties) of the

each February delivery) of each year starting with December 31, 2019 shall be prepared by one or more Approved Petroleum Engineers, and the Reserve Report as of June 30 (for each August delivery) of each year (beginning June 30,
2020), shall be prepared by or under the supervision of the chief engineer or qualified agent of the Borrower who shall, in each case, certify such Reserve Report to be true and accurate in all material respects and to have been prepared in
accordance with the procedures used (x) with respect to each February delivery, the Reserve Report as of December 31, 2019 and (y) with respect to each August delivery, the immediately preceding December 31 Reserve Report. 

(b)    In the event of an Interim Redetermination, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
a Reserve Report prepared, at the election of the Borrower, (i) by one or more Approved Petroleum Engineers or (ii) by or under the supervision of the chief engineer or qualified agent of the Borrower who shall certify such Reserve Report
to be true and accurate in all material respects and to have been prepared in accordance with the procedures used in the immediately preceding December 31 Reserve Report. For any Interim Redetermination requested by the Administrative Agent or
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.07(b), the Borrower shall provide such Reserve Report with an “as of” date as required by the Administrative Agent as soon as possible, but in any event no later than thirty
(30) days following the receipt of such request. 
 (c)    With the delivery of each Reserve Report, the Borrower
shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a Reserve Report Certificate from a Responsible Officer certifying that in all material respects: (i) the information contained in the Reserve Report and any other information delivered
in connection therewith is true and correct, it being understood by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that projections concerning volumes and production and cost estimates contained in each Reserve Report are necessarily based upon opinions,
estimates and projections and that neither the Borrower nor such Responsible Officer warrants that such opinions, estimates and projections will ultimately prove to have been accurate, (ii) the Borrower or another Credit Party has good and
defensible title to the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report (other than those (x) disposed of since the date of such Reserve Report as 

  
 115 

 
permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, and (y) leases that have expired in accordance with their terms) and such Oil and Gas Properties are free (or will be at the time of the
acquisition thereof) of all Liens except for Liens permitted by Section 9.03, (iii) except as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate or previously disclosed to the Administrative Agent in writing, on a net basis
there are no gas imbalances, take or pay or other prepayments, the value of which exceed the volume threshold specified in Section 7.16, with respect to the Credit Parties’ Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such
Reserve Report which would require the Borrower or any other Credit Party to deliver Hydrocarbons either generally or produced from such Oil and Gas Properties at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full payment therefor,
(iv) none of the Borrowing Base Properties have been sold since the date of the last Borrowing Base determination except (A) those Borrowing Base Properties listed on such certificate as having been disposed, or (B) as previously
disclosed to the Administrative Agent in writing, (v) attached to the certificate is a list of all material marketing agreements (which are not cancellable on one hundred twenty (120) days’ notice or less without penalty or detriment)
entered into subsequent to the later of the Effective Date or the most recently delivered Reserve Report which the Borrower could reasonably be expected to have been obligated to list on Schedule 7.17 had such agreement
been in effect on the Effective Date, and (vi) attached thereto is a schedule demonstrating compliance (calculated at the time of delivery of such Reserve Report) with the Collateral Coverage Minimum. 

Section 8.12    Title Information. 

(a)    Subject to Section 8.12(d), on or before the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders of each Reserve Report required by Section 8.11(a), the Borrower will deliver title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent covering enough of the Oil and Gas 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 title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, reasonably
satisfactory title information on at least 85% on the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report. 

(b)    If the Borrower has provided title information for additional Properties under
Section 8.12(a), the Borrower shall, within forty-five (45) days after notice from the Administrative Agent that title defects or exceptions exist with respect to such additional Properties, either (i) cure any
such title defects or exceptions (including defects or exceptions as to priority) which are not permitted by Section 9.03 raised by such information, (ii) substitute acceptable Mortgaged Properties with no title
defects or exceptions except for Excepted Liens having an equivalent value, or (iii) deliver title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent so that the Administrative Agent shall have received,
together with title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, reasonably satisfactory title information on at least 85% of the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by such 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 forty-five (45) day period or the Borrower does not comply with the requirements to provide acceptable title information covering 85% of the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas
Properties evaluated in the most recent Reserve Report, such 

  
 116 

 
default shall not be a Default, but instead the Administrative Agent and/or the Required 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 Administrative Agent or the Lenders. To the extent that the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders are not reasonably
satisfied with title to any Mortgaged Property after the forty-five (45) day period has elapsed, such unacceptable Mortgaged Property shall not count towards the 85% 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 Lenders to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the requirement to provide reasonably acceptable title information on 85% of
the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas Properties. This new Borrowing Base shall become effective immediately after receipt of such notice. 

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no later than the date that is sixty (60) days after the
Initial Funding Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), the Borrower will deliver title information in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent covering enough of the Oil and Gas
Properties evaluated by the Initial Reserve Report so that the Administrative Agent shall have received together with title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, reasonably satisfactory title information on at least 85% of
the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by the Initial Reserve Report. 

Section 8.13    Collateral and Guaranty Agreements. 

(a)    In connection with each redetermination (but not any adjustment) of the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall review
the applicable Reserve Report, if any, and the list of current Mortgaged Properties (as described in Section 8.11(c)) to ascertain whether the Mortgaged Properties represent (x) from the Initial Funding Date up to the
date that is sixty (60) days following the Initial Funding Date, at least 50% of the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the Initial Reserve Report and (y) from the date that is sixty
(60) days following the Initial Funding Date (or such later date as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) and thereafter, at least 85% of the PV-9 of the Oil and Gas Properties
evaluated in the most recently completed Reserve Report (the “Collateral Coverage Minimum”). In the event that the PV-9 of the Mortgaged Properties (calculated at the time of redetermination)
does not satisfy the Collateral Coverage Minimum, then the Borrower shall, and shall cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, grant, within thirty (30) days of delivery of the certificate required under Section 8.11(c)
(or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion, but not to extend beyond a total of ninety (90) days following the delivery of such certificate), to the Administrative Agent as security for the Indebtedness
a first-priority Lien interest subject to Liens permitted under Section 9.03 on additional Oil and Gas Properties of the Credit Parties not already subject to a Lien of the Security Instruments such that after giving effect
thereto, the PV-9 of the Mortgaged Properties (calculated at the time of such redetermination) meets the Collateral Coverage Minimum. All such Liens will be created and perfected by and in accordance with the
provisions of deeds of trust, mortgages, security agreements and financing statements or other Security Instruments, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in sufficient executed (and acknowledged where
necessary or appropriate) counterparts for recording 

  
 117 

 
purposes. In order to comply with the foregoing, if any Restricted Subsidiary places a Lien on its Oil and Gas Properties and such Restricted Subsidiary is not a Guarantor, then it shall become a
Guarantor and comply with Section 8.13(b). 
 (b)    In the event that (i) the Borrower
or any other Credit Party creates or acquires any Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) the Borrower determines that any Restricted Subsidiary is a Material Subsidiary, or (iii) any Domestic Subsidiary incurs or guarantees any Debt, the Borrower
shall, within thirty (30) days from the date of such creation, acquisition, determination, incurrence, or guarantee (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute
and deliver the Guaranty Agreement and the Pledge and Security Agreement (or a supplement to such documents, as applicable) pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall guaranty the Indebtedness and grant a security interest in such Restricted
Subsidiary’s Collateral; provided that such Domestic Subsidiary will not own any Borrowing Base Properties until delivery of such Guaranty Agreement or Pledge and Security Agreement (or a supplement to such documents, as applicable);
provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Excluded Subsidiaries shall not be required to become Guarantors or pledge any Collateral. In the event that the Borrower or any other Credit Party creates or acquires any Restricted
Subsidiary, the Credit Party that owns the Equity Interests in such new Restricted Subsidiary shall execute and deliver a supplement to the Pledge and Security Agreement, pursuant to which such Credit Party will ratify the pledge of all of the
Equity Interests of such new Restricted Subsidiary to secure the Indebtedness. In connection with the foregoing, the Credit Parties shall deliver original certificates, if any, evidencing the Equity Interests of such new Restricted Subsidiary,
together with appropriate undated stock powers for each certificate duly executed in blank by the registered owner thereof and execute and deliver such other additional closing documents, certificates and legal opinions as shall reasonably be
requested by the Administrative Agent. 
 (c)    Notwithstanding any provision in any of the Loan Documents to the
contrary, in no event is any Building (as defined in the applicable Flood Insurance Regulations) or Manufactured (Mobile) Home (as defined in the applicable Flood Insurance Regulations) owned by any Credit Party included in the Mortgaged Property
and no Building or Manufactured (Mobile) Home shall be encumbered by any Security Instrument; provided that (i) the applicable Credit Party’s interests in all lands and Hydrocarbons situated under any such Building or Manufactured
(Mobile) Home shall be included in the Mortgaged Property and shall be encumbered by the Security Instruments and (ii) the Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, permit to exist any Lien on any Building
or Manufactured (Mobile) Home except Liens permitted by Section 9.03. 

Section 8.14    ERISA Compliance. The Borrower will promptly furnish and will cause the
Restricted Subsidiaries to promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent if specifically requested by the Administrative Agent, promptly after the filing thereof with the United States Secretary of Labor or the Internal Revenue Service, copies
of each annual report (Form 5500 series) with respect to each Plan sponsored by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary or any trust created thereunder.

 Section 8.15    Commodity Exchange Act
Keepwell Provisions. The Borrower hereby guarantees the payment and performance of all Indebtedness of each Credit Party (other than the Borrower) and absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support
as may be needed from time to time by each Credit Party (other than the Borrower) in order for such Credit Party to honor its obligations under its respective Guaranty Agreement including obligations with respect to Swap Agreements (provided,
however, that the Borrower shall only be liable under this Section 8.15 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this
Section 8.15, or otherwise under this Agreement or any Loan Document, as it relates to such other Credit Parties, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any
greater amount). The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 8.15 shall remain in full force and effect until all Indebtedness is paid in full (other than contingent indemnity obligations for which no claims have
been made) to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all other Secured Parties, and all of the Lenders’ Commitments are terminated. The Borrower intends that this Section 8.15 constitute, and this
Section 8.15 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

 Section 8.16    Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts. The Borrower shall (at its own
expense), and shall cause each of the other Credit Parties to, maintain each of their primary operating and treasury deposit accounts with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and shall cause each of such deposit accounts and each of its securities accounts to
be subject to Control Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent; provided, (a) no such Control Agreement shall be required for Excluded Accounts and (b) with respect to primary operating and treasury deposit accounts and
securities accounts maintained by (x) the Existing Credit Parties, such Existing Credit Parties shall have until the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) days following the Initial Funding Date (as such date may be extended by the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) to deliver Control Agreements covering such accounts and (y) the Credit Parties as of the Initial Funding Date (other than the Existing Credit Parties), such Credit Parties shall have until the date
that is sixty (60) days following the Initial Funding Date (as such date may be extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) to deliver Control Agreements covering such accounts. 

Section 8.17    Marketing Activities. The Borrower shall (at its own expense), and shall cause
each of the other Credit Parties to, only engage in the following marketing activities for any Hydrocarbons or enter into any contracts related thereto: (a) contracts for the sale of Hydrocarbons scheduled or reasonably estimated to be produced
from their Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Reserves during the period of such contract and (b) contracts for the sale of Hydrocarbons scheduled or reasonably estimated to be produced from Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved
Reserves of third parties during the period of such contract associated with the Oil and Gas Properties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries that the Borrower or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries has the right or obligation to market
pursuant to joint 

  
 119 

 
operating agreements, unitization agreements or other similar contracts (or contracts executed in connection therewith) that are usual and customary in the Oil and Gas Business. 

Section 8.18    Gas Imbalances, Take-or-Pay or Other Prepayments. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of the other Credit Parties, only allow gas imbalances,
take-or-pay or other prepayments with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that would require the Borrower or such
Restricted Subsidiary to deliver Hydrocarbons at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full payment therefor to not exceed one half bcf of gas (on an mcf equivalent basis) in the aggregate. 

Section 8.19    Use of Proceeds. 

(a)    The proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit will be used only to finance expenses incurred in connection
with the Transactions and for working capital needs, the acquisition, development and exploration of Oil and Gas Properties and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. No part of the proceeds of any Loan and no Letter
of Credit will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations T, U and X. 

(b)    The Borrower will not request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit, and no Borrower shall use, and the Borrower shall
procure that its Subsidiaries and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Borrowing or Letter of Credit (i) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of
the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (ii) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned
Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, to the extent that such activities, businesses or transaction would be prohibited by Sanctions if conducted by a corporation incorporated in the U.S. or the European Union, or (iii) in any manner that would
result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto. 

Section 8.20    Post-Initial Funding Date Deliverables. 

(a)    On or prior to the date that is sixty (60) days following the Initial Funding Date (or such later date as the
Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion): 
 (i)    To the extent not delivered on the Initial Funding
Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) Mortgages and other Security Instruments sufficient to create first priority, perfected Liens (subject only to Excepted Liens identified in clauses (a) through
(d) and (f) of the definition thereof, but subject to the provisos at the end of such definition) to comply with the Collateral Coverage Minimum and (B) corresponding opinions of counsel covering the Mortgages and Security
Instruments delivered pursuant to Section 8.20(a)(i)(A); provided that the Borrower shall not be required to deliver opinions of counsel covering Mortgages encumbering Borrowing Base Properties delivered pursuant to 

  
 120 

 
Section 8.20(a)(i)(A) for the relevant jurisdiction in which such Borrowing Base Properties are being encumbered to the extent that the Borrower has previously delivered
opinions of counsel for such relevant jurisdictions; and 
 (ii)    To the extent not delivered on the Initial Funding
Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent title information setting forth the status of title to at least 85% of the PV-9 of the Borrowing Base Properties consistent with usual and customary
standards for the geographic regions in which such Borrowing Base Properties are located. 
 (b)    Subject to
Section 9.13, on or prior to the date that is thirty (30) calendar days following the Initial Funding Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), the Borrower shall enter
into Swap Agreements (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include put and floor options, in each case, with strike prices of not less than 90% of the lesser of the forward curve prices for crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas, as
applicable, at the time of incurrence of such Swap Agreement), in each case with an Approved Counterparty in respect of each of crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas, calculated separately on a projected revenue basis and entered into not
for speculative purposes the notional volumes for which (when aggregated with the notional volumes of other Swap Agreements in respect of commodities then in effect, other than the notional volumes of basis differential swaps) that, as of the date
of the latest hedging transaction of such Swap Agreement, have the minimum hedging set forth on Part A of Schedule 8.20, which hedges shall include the assumption of the hedging assumptions of Roan listed on Part B of Schedule
8.20 (such hedging agreements of Roan, the “Roan Assumed Hedges”); provided that (i) any Roan Assumed Hedges that have not been assumed by the Borrower may be replaced by replacement Swap Agreements no
worse than the Roan Assumed Hedges that such Swap Agreement replaces and (ii) at the request of the Borrower, the Arrangers will (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into novations of such Roan Assumed Hedges or (B) if any
such Roan Assumed Hedges have not been novated pursuant to clause (A), use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into other such replacement Swap Agreements. 

ARTICLE IX 

NEGATIVE COVENANTS 

Commencing on the Initial Funding Date and until the Commitments have expired or terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and
all fees payable hereunder and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnity obligations for which no claims have been made) and all Letters of Credit have expired or terminated and all LC
Disbursements shall have been reimbursed, the Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lenders that: 

Section 9.01    Financial Covenants. 

(a)    Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio. The Borrower will not, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter
(commencing with first full fiscal quarter after the Initial Funding Date), permit its Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for the Rolling Period then ending to be greater than 3.5 to 1.0. 

  
 121 

 (b)    Current Ratio. The Borrower will not permit the Current
Ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter (commencing with first full fiscal quarter after the Initial Funding Date) to be less than 1.0 to 1.0. 

(c)    Right to Cure. In the event the Borrower fails to comply with the requirements of
Section 9.01(a) or (b), beginning on the first date after the last day of the fiscal quarter for which the financial covenants in Section 9.01(a) and (b) are being tested, until
the expiration of the tenth Business Day subsequent to the date the compliance certificate for calculating the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and the Current Ratio is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 8.01(c)
(the “Cure Period”), the Borrower shall be permitted to cure such failure to comply by requesting that the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and/or the Current Ratio be recalculated by increasing EBITDAX, Annualized EBITDAX for such
Rolling Period or Current Assets as of such last day of such fiscal quarter, as the case may be, by an amount up to the proceeds received by the Borrower from a Specified Equity Contribution during a Cure Period (such amount, a “Cure
Amount”); provided that (i) the Borrower delivers written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of a timely delivered certificate required by Section 8.01(c) that it has elected to
cure the failure to comply and clearly setting forth such Specified Equity Contribution in the computation required by Section 8.01(c)(ii); (ii) the amount of the Cure Amount added to EBITDAX, Annualized EBITDAX, or
Current Assets as applicable, shall not be greater than the amount required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with Section 9.01(a) or (b) and shall be without duplication of any other Cure Amount during
the same Cure Period (it being understood that, for the avoidance of doubt, different Cure Amounts would be required to cure the two (2) separate financial covenants during the same Cure Period); (iii) any such increase pursuant to this
Section 9.01(c) to EBITDAX, Annualized EBITDAX, or Current Assets, as applicable, in or as of the end of any fiscal quarter shall be applied solely for the purpose of determining compliance or non-compliance with
Section 9.01(a) or (b) as of the last day of any Rolling Period that includes such fiscal quarter or as of the last day of such fiscal quarter and not for any other purpose under any Loan Document (including any
determination of pro forma compliance with the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for the purposes of incurring any Specified Additional Debt or making any Restricted Payment or any other purpose (even if the proceeds of any Specified Equity
Contribution are actually used to reduce Debt or Current Liabilities)); (iv) the Borrower may not cure any Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio or Current Ratio default by an equity cure more than (A) two (2) times during any period of
four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters or (B) five (5) times prior to the Maturity Date (provided that, if the Borrower exercises its cure right prior to the date financial statements are required to be delivered for a relevant
fiscal quarter solely with respect to an anticipated Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio or Current Ratio default and the Cure Amount associated therewith is insufficient to cure a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio or Current Ratio default with
respect to such quarter, any subsequent exercise of a cure right prior to the expiration of the applicable Cure Period to “top-up” such Cure Amount shall not count as an additional exercise of the
cure right). Such increase in the Borrower’s EBITDAX or Annualized EBITDAX, as applicable, shall be taken into account in calculating the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for the purpose of determining compliance or noncompliance with
Section 9.01(a) of the last day of any Rolling Period that includes the last fiscal quarter of the four (4) quarter period with respect to which such cure right was exercised; provided that, for the purposes of
calculating Annualized EBITDAX, any Cure Amount shall be taken into account after multiplying EBITDAX by the applicable factor pursuant to the definition of Annualized 

  
 122 

 
EBITDAX, if any, and shall be disregarded for purposes of annualizing EBITDAX; (v) any cure of more than one of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio default and Current Ratio default in one
fiscal quarter shall count as a single Specified Equity Contribution; and (vi) no Lender or Issuing Bank shall be required to make any extension of credit hereunder during the Cure Period, until the Borrower has received the Cure Amount. If
after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the Borrower would then be in compliance with Section 9.01(a) or (b), the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of
Section 9.01(a) or (b) as of the relevant earlier required date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of
any such covenant that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall exercise the right to accelerate the Loans or terminate the Commitments
and none of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Secured Party shall exercise any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral or exercise any other remedy pursuant to Section 10.02, the other Loan
Documents or applicable law prior to the end of the applicable Cure Period solely on the basis of an Event of Default having occurred and continuing under Section 9.01(a) or (b) (except to the extent that the
Borrower has confirmed in writing that it does not intend to provide a Specified Equity Contribution). 

Section 9.02    Debt. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
incur, create, assume or suffer to exist any Debt, except: 
 (a)    the Notes or other Indebtedness arising under the
Loan Documents or any guaranty of or suretyship arrangement for the Notes or other Indebtedness arising under the Loan Documents. 

(b)    Debt of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries existing on the Initial Funding Date that is reflected on
Schedule 9.02. 
 (c)    Debt under Finance Leases and Purchase Money Debt not to exceed the

(d)    Debt associated with bonds, guarantees, letters of credit or surety obligations required by Governmental
Requirements or incurred in the ordinary course of business, in each case in connection with the operation of the Oil and Gas Properties and not in connection with money borrowed, or Debt associated with guarantees or surety obligations delivered by
the Borrower to any provider of such bonds. 
 (e)    intercompany Debt between the Borrower and any Restricted
Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent permitted by Section 9.05(d); provided that such Debt is not held, assigned, transferred, negotiated or pledged to any Person other than the Borrower or one
of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and, provided, further, that any such Debt owed by either the Borrower or a Guarantor shall be subordinated to the Indebtedness on terms set forth in the Guaranty Agreement. 

  
 123 

 (f)    endorsements of negotiable instruments for collection in the
ordinary course of business. 
 (g)    Debt constituting a guarantee by any Credit Party of any Debt incurred by another
Credit Party so long as the incurrence of such Debt by such other Credit Party is otherwise permitted by this Section 9.02. 

(h)    Debt arising under Swap Agreements permitted by Section 9.13. 

(i)    unsecured Specified Additional Debt; provided that (i) after giving effect to the incurrence of such
Debt, (A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (B) the Borrower is in compliance on a Pro Forma Basis with Section 9.01(a) and (b) for the Rolling Period or fiscal quarter, as
applicable, most recently ended for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 8.01(a) or (b), (ii) such Debt does not have any scheduled principal payments until the date that is one
hundred eighty (180) days following the Maturity Date, (iii) on the same day as the incurrence of such Debt, the Borrowing Base shall be adjusted to the extent required by Section 2.07(f) and prepayment is made to
the extent required by Section 3.04(c)(iii) and no Borrowing Base Deficiency would then exist after giving effect to such adjustment and prepayment, (iv) to the extent such Debt is expressly subordinated in right of
payment to the Indebtedness, such Debt shall be subject to a Subordination Agreement and (v) the Borrower shall have provided the notice required by Section 8.01(l). 

(j)    Debt of any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower after the Initial Funding Date, which Debt
is existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than Debt incurred in contemplation of such Person’s becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower); provided that the aggregate principal
amount of all such Debt shall not exceed the greater of (i) $40,000,000 and (ii) 5% of the Borrowing Base in the aggregate at any one time outstanding. 

(k)    Specified Additional Debt in the form of Junior Lien Debt in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
$125,000,000; provided that (i) after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt, (A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (B) the Borrower is in compliance on a Pro Forma Basis with

(b), (ii) such Debt does not have any scheduled principal payments until the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days following the Maturity Date, (iii) on the same day as the incurrence of such Debt, the Borrowing

effect to such adjustment and prepayment, (iv) such Debt is subject to an Intercreditor Agreement, which agreement shall provide that the Liens securing such Debt shall rank junior to the Lien securing the Indebtedness and (v) the Borrower
shall have provided the notice required by Section 8.01(l).

permitted pursuant to this Section 9.02 not to exceed the greater of (i) $15,000,000 and (ii) 2.50% of the Borrowing Base in the aggregate at any one time outstanding. 

  
 124

not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on any of its Properties (now owned or hereafter acquired), except: 

(a)    Liens securing the Indebtedness. 

(b)    Excepted Liens. 

(c)    Liens securing Finance Leases or Purchase Money Debt permitted by Section 9.02(c) but

provided that such Liens are Junior Liens on the Collateral and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. 

(e)    Liens on Property not constituting Collateral and not otherwise permitted by the foregoing clauses of this
Section 9.03; provided that the aggregate principal or face amount of all Debt secured under this Section 9.03(e) shall not exceed the greater of (i) $15,000,000 and (ii) 1% of the

Subsidiary to amend or modify, or consent or agree to any amendment or modification to, any of the terms governing any Specified Additional Debt, if the effect of such amendment or modification is (A) to cause such Specified Additional Debt to
have any scheduled principal payments prior to the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days following the Maturity Date, (B) to reduce the weighted average life to maturity of such Debt, (C) to make the covenants, events of default

 133 

 Section 9.13    Swap Agreements. 

(a)    The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Swap Agreements with any
Person other than: 
 (i)    Swap Agreements with an Approved Counterparty in respect of commodities entered into not
for speculative purposes the notional volumes for which (when aggregated with the notional volumes of other commodity Swap Agreements then in effect, other than the notional volumes of (A) puts, options, or floors with respect to which neither
the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiaries have any payment obligation other than premiums and other charges (it being understood that the payment of such obligations may be deferred but that the total amount of which are fixed and known at the
time such transaction is entered into) and (B) basis differential swaps on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements for Hydrocarbons) do not exceed, as of the date such Swap Agreement is entered into, for the sixty
(60) month period (and for each fiscal quarter during such period) from the date such Swap Agreement is created, up to 85% of the reasonably anticipated projected production (measured on an MMBtu basis with respect to natural gas and a Bbl
basis with respect to crude oil, as applicable, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, on an Mcf or volumetric basis) from the Credit Parties’ Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Reserves (as set forth in the most recent Reserve Report
delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, calculated separately; provided, however, that such Swap Agreements shall not, in any case, have a tenor of greater than sixty
(60) months (the “Ongoing Hedges”). In addition to the Ongoing Hedges, in connection with a proposed or pending acquisition (a “Proposed Acquisition”), the Credit Parties may also enter into Swap Agreements
with respect to the Credit Parties’ reasonably anticipated projected production from the Oil and Gas Properties subject of such proposed acquisition constituting Proved Reserves as forecast based upon the most recent Reserve Report having
notional volumes not in excess of 15% of the Credit Parties’ existing projected production from Proved Reserves prior to the consummation of such Proposed Acquisition (such that the aggregate shall not be more than 100% of the reasonably
anticipated projected production prior to the consummation of such Proposed Acquisition) for a period not exceeding thirty-six (36) months from the date such Swap Agreement is created during the period
between (x) the date on which such Credit Party signs a definitive acquisition agreement in connection with a Proposed Acquisition and (y) the earliest of (I) the date such Proposed Acquisition is consummated, (II) the date such
proposed acquisition is terminated and (III) ninety (90) days after such definitive acquisition agreement was executed (or such longer period as to which the Administrative Agent may agree). If such proposed acquisition is terminated, all such
Swap Agreements entered into with respect to a proposed acquisition must be terminated or unwound within ninety (90) days following the date such proposed acquisition is terminated. It is understood that (i) commodity Swap Agreements that
may, from time to time, “hedge” the same commodity volumes but different elements of commodity risk thereof, shall not be aggregated together (i.e., only the Swap Agreement hedging the same element of commodity risk being entered into
shall be counted) when calculating the foregoing limitations on notional volumes and (ii) commodity Swap Agreements that may, from time to time, “hedge” the same commodity volumes and offset one another shall both be ignored to the
extent of such offset when calculating the foregoing limitations on notional volumes; and 

  
 134 

 (ii)    Swap Agreements in respect of interest rates with an Approved
Counterparty, as follows: 
 (A)    Swap Agreements effectively converting interest rates from fixed to floating, the
notional amounts of which (when aggregated with all other Swap Agreements of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries then in effect effectively converting interest rates from fixed to floating) do not exceed 75% of the anticipated outstanding
principal amount of the Credit Parties’ Debt for borrowed money which bears interest at a fixed rate, and which Swap Agreements shall not, in any case, have a tenor beyond the maturity date of such Debt, and 

(B)    Swap Agreements effectively converting interest rates from floating to fixed, the notional amounts of which (when
aggregated with all other Swap Agreements of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries then in effect effectively converting interest rates from floating to fixed) do not exceed 75% of the anticipated outstanding principal amount of the Credit
Parties’ Debt for borrowed money which bears interest at a floating rate, and which Swap Agreements shall not, in any case, have a tenor beyond the maturity date of such Debt. 

(b)    In no event shall any Swap Agreement contain any requirement, agreement or covenant for the Borrower or any
Restricted Subsidiary to post collateral, credit support (including in the form of letters of credit) or margin to secure their obligations under such Swap Agreement or to cover market exposures (other than pursuant to the Security Instruments).

 (c)    For purposes of entering into or maintaining Swap Agreement trades or transactions under
Section 9.13(a), forecasts of reasonably anticipated production from the Borrower’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Reserves as set forth on the most recent Reserve
Report delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be revised to account for any increase or decrease therein anticipated because of information obtained by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and delivered to the
Administrative Agent subsequent to the publication of such Reserve Report including the Borrower’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ internal forecasts of production decline rates for existing wells and additions to or deletions from
anticipated future production from new wells and completed acquisitions coming on stream or failing to come on stream. 

Section 9.14    Designation and Conversion of Restricted and Unrestricted
Subsidiaries. 
 (a)    Unless designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary on
Schedule 7.13 as of the Initial Funding Date or thereafter, assuming compliance with Section 9.14(b) below, any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries shall be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary. 
 (b)    The Borrower may designate by written
notification thereof to the Administrative Agent, any Restricted Subsidiary, including a newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary, as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if (i) immediately prior, and immediately after giving effect, to such designation
(including the effect of any repayments of Revolving Credit Exposure occurring contemporaneously therewith), no Event of Default nor any Borrowing Base Deficiency 

  
 135 

 
shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such designation is deemed to be an Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary in an amount equal to the fair market value as of the date of such
designation of the Borrower’s direct and indirect ownership interest in such Subsidiary and such Investment would be permitted to be made at the time of such designation under Section 9.04(b)(ii). Except as provided in
this Section 9.14(b), no Restricted Subsidiary may be redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 

(c)    The Borrower may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if after giving effect to such
designation, (i) the representations and warranties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries contained in each of the Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of such date as if made on and as of the date of such redesignation (or,
if stated to have been made expressly as of an earlier date, were true and correct as of such date), (ii) no Event of Default would exist, and (iii) the Borrower complies with the requirements of Sections 8.13, 8.16
and 9.11. Any such designation shall be treated as a cash dividend in an amount equal to the lesser of the fair market value of the Borrower’s direct and indirect ownership interest in such Subsidiary or the amount of the Borrower’s
cash investment previously made for purposes of the limitation on Investments under Section 9.04(b)(ii). 

(d)    The Borrower will cause the management, business and affairs of each of the Borrower and its Restricted
Subsidiaries to be conducted in such a manner (including, without limitation, by keeping separate books of account, furnishing separate financial statements of Unrestricted Subsidiaries to creditors and potential creditors thereof and by not
permitting Properties of the Borrower and its respective Restricted Subsidiaries to be commingled) so that each Unrestricted Subsidiary that is a corporation will be treated as a corporate entity separate and distinct from Borrower and the
Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 Section 9.15    Organizational Documents. Neither the Borrower
nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall amend, modify or change its Organizational Documents, including the operating agreement, in any manner materially adverse to the rights or interests of the Lenders. 

Section 9.16    Changes in Fiscal Year. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit
any Restricted Subsidiary to have its fiscal year end on a date other than December 31 or change its method of determining fiscal quarters.

 139 

 
protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower and each Guarantor; and in case of an Event of Default

Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from the Borrower or any Guarantor that is not an “eligible contract participant”
under the Commodity Exchange Act shall not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Indebtedness other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this clause, the
Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to 

  
 140 

 
clause (iv) above from amounts received from “eligible contract participants” under the Commodity Exchange Act to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the
proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to Indebtedness described in clause (iv) above by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other
Indebtedness pursuant to clause (iv) above). 
 ARTICLE XI 

THE AGENTS 

Section 11.01    Appointment; Powers. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and the other Loan
Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Secured Party hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Security Instruments on behalf of such Secured Party as needed to
effectuate the transactions permitted by this Agreement and agrees that the Administrative Agent may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of such applicable Security Instrument. Without limiting the provisions of
Sections 11.02 and 12.03, each Secured Party hereby consents to the Administrative Agent and any successor serving in such capacity and agrees not to assert any claim (including as a result of any conflict of interest) against the
Administrative Agent, or any such successor, arising from the role of the Administrative Agent or such successor under the Loan Documents so long as it is either acting in accordance with the terms of such documents and otherwise has not engaged in
gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 Section 11.02    Duties and Obligations of
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not
be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing (the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not
intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law; rather, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an
administrative relationship between independent contracting parties), (b) the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except as provided in
Section 11.03, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not 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 Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any (x) notice of any of the
events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 8.02 unless and until written notice thereof stating that it is a “notice under Section 8.02” in respect of this Agreement and
identifying the specific clause under said Section is given to the 

  
 141 

 
Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender or (y) Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender,
and 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 under any other Loan Document 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 in
any other Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in
Article VI or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or as to those conditions precedent expressly required to be to the Administrative
Agent’s satisfaction, (vi) the existence, value, perfection or priority of any collateral security or the financial or other condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or any other obligor or guarantor, or (vii) any failure by the
Borrower or any other Person (other than itself) to perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or the performance or observance of any covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein. The
Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (A) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (B) have any liability with
respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in
Article VI, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory
to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Effective Date or the proposed Initial Funding Date and, in either case, specifying its objection thereto. 

Section 11.03    Action by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall have no
duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as
directed by the Majority Lenders (or such other number, percentage or class of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02) and in all cases the Administrative Agent shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Documents unless it shall (a) receive written instructions from the Majority Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, (or such other number, percentage or class of the
Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02) specifying the action to be taken and (b) be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expenses

  
 142 

 
which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The instructions as aforesaid and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto by the Administrative
Agent shall be binding on all of the Lenders. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, then the Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the requisite Lenders in the written instructions
(with indemnities) described in this Section 11.03, provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such
action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. In no event, however, shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action which exposes the
Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable law. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, no Arranger nor any Agent (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any
obligation to perform any act in respect thereof. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders or the Lenders (or such other number, percentage or
class of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02), and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it hereunder or under any
other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith INCLUDING ITS OWN ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

Section 11.04    Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person.
The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon and each of the Borrower, the Lenders and the
Issuing Banks hereby waive the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of such statement, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The
Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof permitted hereunder shall have been filed with the Administrative
Agent. 
 Section 11.05    Subagents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its
duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through
their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding Sections 

  
 143 

 
of this Article XI shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply .to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

Section 11.06    Resignation of Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and
acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this Section 11.06, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, any Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the
Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, and with the consent of the Borrower if no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and any Issuing
Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. 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 Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Article XI and Section 12.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 

Section 11.07    Agents as Lenders. Each bank serving as an 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 an Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of
business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder. 

Section 11.08    No Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and each other Loan Document
to which it is a party. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any other Lender 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, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be required to
keep themselves informed as to the performance or observance 

  
 144 

 
by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or to inspect the Properties or books of the Borrower or
its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent or Arranger shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its Affiliates. In this regard, each Lender
acknowledges that Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP is acting in this transaction as special counsel to the Administrative Agent only, except to the extent otherwise expressly stated in any legal opinion or any Loan Document. Each other party
hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein. 

Section 11.09    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency
of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the
principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention
in such proceeding or otherwise: 
 (a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest
owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Indebtedness that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any
claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under
Section 12.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b)    to collect and receive any
monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Section 12.03. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Indebtedness or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect
of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 

  
 145 

 Section 11.10    Authority of
Administrative Agent to Release Collateral, Liens and Guarantors. Each Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to release (a) any Collateral that is permitted
to be sold or released pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any Collateral owned by a Restricted Subsidiary that is redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with
Section 9.14(b)), (b) any Guarantor if 100% of the Equity Interests in such Guarantor are sold, or if such Guarantor is redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case in a transaction permitted under the Loan
Documents and (c) all Collateral and Guarantors upon termination of this Agreement, termination of all Swap Agreements secured by the Security Instruments (other than such Swap Agreements as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable
counterparty in its sole discretion have been made), termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which arrangements satisfactory to such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion have been made), and the payment in full in
cash of all outstanding Loans, LC Disbursements, all other Indebtedness, and all other obligations payable under this Agreement and under any other Loan Document. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to
execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, any and all releases of Liens, termination statements, assignments or other documents reasonably requested by the Borrower in connection with any sale or other
disposition of Property to the extent such sale or other disposition is permitted by the terms of Section 9.09 or is otherwise authorized by the terms of the Loan Documents. If any of the Collateral shall be sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Loan Party in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents, or in the event that all the Equity Interests of such Loan Party shall be sold, and such Collateral or Equity Interests shall no longer
constitute or be required to be Collateral under the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of the Borrower and the applicable Loan Party, shall promptly execute and deliver to such Loan Party all releases or
other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created by the applicable Security Instrument on such Collateral; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at the
Administrative Agent’s reasonable request, on or prior to the date of the proposed release, (or such other time period as the Administrative Agent may agree), a certification by the Borrower stating (i) that such transaction is in
compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) the Borrower has complied with its obligations under Section 8.01(j), if applicable. 

Section 11.11    The Arrangers and Agents. The Arrangers and the Agents
(other than the Administrative Agent) shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents other than their duties, responsibilities and liabilities in their capacity as Lenders hereunder.

 Section 11.12    Certain ERISA Matters. 

(a)    Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and

 Section 11.13    Credit Bidding. The Secured
Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Indebtedness (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the
Indebtedness pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Credit Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of
collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the
Indebtedness owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Majority Lenders on a ratable basis (with Indebtedness with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims
receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent
interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative
Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Indebtedness which were credit
bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the
governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof, shall be
governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Majority Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition
vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Majority Lenders contained in Section 12.02 of this Agreement), (iv)
the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Indebtedness that was credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership
interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further
action, and (v) to the extent that Indebtedness that is assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Indebtedness assigned to the
acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Indebtedness credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Indebtedness shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original

  
 148 

 
interest in such Indebtedness and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Indebtedness shall automatically be cancelled, without the need
for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Indebtedness of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause
(ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition
vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

 Section 12.02    Waivers; Amendments. 

(a)    No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders or any
Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, power or privilege, under any of the Loan Documents shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any of the Loan Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights
and remedies of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise
have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 12.02(b), and
then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Lender, the Swingline Lenders or the Issuing Banks may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

(b)    Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor other Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived,
amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Majority Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such
agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment, Elected Commitment or the Maximum Credit Amount of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) increase the Borrowing Base without the written consent of each Lender, decrease or
maintain the Borrowing Base without the consent of the Required Lenders, or modify Section 2.07 in any manner that results in an increase in the Borrowing Base without the consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting
Lender); provided that any Scheduled Redetermination may be postponed with the consent of the Required Lenders, (iii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees
payable hereunder, or reduce any other Indebtedness hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) postpone the scheduled date of payment or prepayment of the principal amount of
any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or any other Indebtedness hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone or extend the Maturity
Date without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; provided that any mandatory prepayment required by Section 3.04(c) may be postponed or waived with the consent of the Required Lenders,
(v) change Section 4.01(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (vi) waive or amend
Sections 3.04(c) (subject to the proviso in Section 12.02(b)(iv)), 6.01, 6.02, 8.13, 10.02(c) (or amend any of the defined terms in such Section if the result would be to alter the
priority of payments in respect of Collateral proceeds) or 12.14 or change the definition of the terms “Applicable Percentage”, “Domestic Subsidiary”, “Foreign Subsidiary”, “Material Subsidiary” or
“Subsidiary”, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender); 

  
 150 

 
provided, that any amendment or modification to Sections 10.02(c) (or any of the defined terms in such Section if the result would be to alter the priority of payments in respect of
Collateral proceeds), Section 12.14 or this proviso in this Section 12.02(b)(vi) shall also require the consent of each Secured Swap Provider adversely affected thereby, in each case, if the effect
of such amendment or modification would be disproportionately adverse to such Secured Swap Provider relative to its effect on the other Secured Parties, (vii) release any Guarantor (except as set forth in Section 11.10
or in the Guaranty Agreement), release all or substantially all of the Collateral, or reduce the percentage set forth in Section 8.13(a) to less than 85%, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any
Defaulting Lender), or (viii) change any of the provisions of this Section 12.02(b) or the definition of the terms “Majority Lenders”, “Required Lenders”, or any other provision hereof specifying
the number, percentage or class of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or any other Loan Documents, without the written consent of
each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Swingline Lenders or the Issuing
Banks hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such other Agent, the Swingline Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) (I) any
Schedules provided by the Borrower after the Effective Date and prior to the Initial Funding Date pursuant to Section 6.01(z) shall be effective on the Initial Funding Date and (II) any supplement to
Schedule 7.13 (Subsidiaries) shall be effective simply by delivering to the Administrative Agent a supplemental schedule clearly marked as such and, upon receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly deliver a copy
thereof to the Lenders, (B) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of the Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct
any typographical error or other manifest error in any Loan Document, and (C) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or other applicable Credit Party) may enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or enter into any agreement or instrument to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Mortgaged Property or Property to become Mortgaged Property to secure the Indebtedness for
the benefit of the Lenders or as required by any Governmental Requirement to give effect to, protect or otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under the Loan Documents without the consent of any Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Annex II may be amended to add an Issuing Bank, remove an Issuing Bank or modify the LC Issuance Limit of any Issuing Bank with the consent solely of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank (and the consent of the
Majority Lenders or any other class of Lenders shall not be required). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any party thereto, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents, or enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate, in order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or otherwise effectuate the terms of
Section 3.03 in accordance with the terms of Section 3.03.

assign to one or more assignees (other than the Borrower, any Affiliate of the Borrower, any Disqualified Institution, any Defaulting Lender or any natural person (or any holding company, investment vehicle, or trust owned and operated for the
primary benefit of a natural person)) 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) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of: 
 (A)    the Borrower, provided that no consent of the
Borrower shall be required if such assignment is to an existing Lender, an Affiliate of an existing Lender of similar creditworthiness, an Approved Fund or, if any Event of Default of the type described in Section 10.01(a),
(b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, is to any other assignee; and 
 (B)    the

of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to

Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(D)    the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption,

trust owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural person); and 
 (G)    the Applicable Percentage of the

assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its

entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03 and 12.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section 12.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.04(c). 

(iv)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a
non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders,
and the Maximum Credit Amount and Elected Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries
in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder
for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice. In connection with any changes to the Register, if necessary, the Administrative Agent will reflect the revisions on Annex I and forward a copy of such revised Annex I to the Borrower, the Issuing Banks, the
Swingline Lenders and each Lender. 

  
 156 

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

(c)    (i) Any Lender may, at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any
Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other Persons (other than the Borrower, any Affiliate of the Borrower, any Disqualified Institution, any Defaulting Lender or any natural person (or any holding
company, investment vehicle, or trust owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural person)) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations, and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender, any Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in
clauses (i), (ii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of the proviso to Section 12.02(b) that affects such Participant and for which such Lender has a consent right. In addition such agreement must provide that the Participant be
bound by the provisions of Section 12.03. Subject to Section 12.04(c)(ii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.01, 5.02
and 5.03 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.01(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely
for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register
(including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such
disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Proposed Treasury Regulations (or, in each 

  
 157 

 
case, any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no
responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (i)    Each Participant agrees (A) to be subject to the
provisions of Section 5.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.03(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 5.03(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) as if it were an assignee under clause (b) of this Section; and (B) that it shall not be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Sections 5.01 or 5.03, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change
in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. 
 (d)    Any Lender may at any time
pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other
central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 12.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest
shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(e)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 12.04, no transfer or assignment of
the interests or obligations of any Lender or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower and the Guarantors to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the
Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state. 
 (f)    The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the
Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (i) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Borrower (the “DQ List”) and/or (ii) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same.

 (g)    If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without the Borrower’s prior
written consent in violation of this Section 12.04, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent, (i) terminate the Commitment of
such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Commitment and/or (ii) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with
and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 12.04), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons eligible to be an assignee under this
Section 12.04 at the lesser of (A) the principal amount thereof and (B) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest,
accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder. 

  
 158 

 Section 12.05    Survival; Revival;
Reinstatement. 
 (a)    All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in
the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Swingline Lender, any
Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued
interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections
5.01, 5.02, 5.03, 12.03 and Article XI shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans,
the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof. 

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

 Section 12.06    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 

(a)    This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of
which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. 

(b)    This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the
Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and
thereof. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER CONTAINED HEREIN AND THEREIN AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND

  
 159 

 
THERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 

(c)    Except as provided in Section 6.01 and Section 6.02, this
Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties
hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic
transmission (e.g., .pdf) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

Section 12.07    Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held
to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 12.08    Right of Setoff. Subject to Section 12.14(b), if an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations (of whatsoever kind, including, without limitations obligations under Swap Agreements) at
any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary owed to such Lender now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender
under this Section 12.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or its Affiliates may have. 

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

(a)    THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK. 
 (b)    ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, IN EITHER CASE LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, AND,

ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS. THIS SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION IS NON-EXCLUSIVE AND DOES NOT PRECLUDE A PARTY FROM OBTAINING JURISDICTION OVER ANOTHER PARTY IN ANY COURT
OTHERWISE HAVING JURISDICTION. 
 (c)    EACH PARTY HEREBY (i) IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN; (ii) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY SUCH LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES; (iii) CERTIFIES THAT NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY REPRESENTATIVE OR
AGENT OR COUNSEL FOR ANY PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, OR IMPLIED THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS; AND (iv) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO
THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 12.09; PROVIDED THAT THE FOREGOING SHALL

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

Section 12.11    Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the
Swingline Lenders and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and
agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information
confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable 

  
 161 

 
laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section 12.11, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any
actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement relating to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and their obligations (it being understood that the DQ List may be disclosed to any assignee or Participant in reliance
on this clause (f)), (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect
to such Lender or to any collector of market data or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 12.11 or (y) becomes available to the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; provided that no disclosure shall be made to any Disqualified Institution). For the purposes of this
Section 12.11, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and their businesses, other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of
information received from the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as
provided in this Section 12.11 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would
accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, “Information” shall not include, and the Borrower, the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the
respective Affiliates of each of the foregoing (and the respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives of the aforementioned Persons), and any other party, may disclose to any and all Persons, without
limitation of any kind (A) any information with respect to the United States federal and state income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated hereby and any facts that may be relevant to understanding the United States federal or state
income tax treatment of such transactions (“Tax Structure”), which facts shall not include for this purpose the names of the parties or any other person named herein, or information that would permit identification of the parties or
such other persons, or any pricing terms or other nonpublic business or financial information that is unrelated to such tax treatment or Tax Structure, and (B) all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are
provided to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment or Tax Structure. 

  
 162 

 Section 12.12    Interest Rate Limitation.
It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws
of the United States of America and the State of New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in any of the Loan Documents or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Loans, it is agreed as follows: (a) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender
that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Lender under any of the Loan Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Loans shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable
law, and any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the Indebtedness (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Indebtedness shall have been or would
thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Borrower); and (b) in the event that the maturity of the Loans is accelerated by reason of an election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or
otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess
interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically by such Lender as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Lender on the principal amount of the
Indebtedness (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Indebtedness shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Borrower). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Lender for the use, forbearance or
detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the stated term of the Loans evidenced by the Loan Documents until payment in full so that the
rate or amount of interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to any Lender on any date shall be computed
at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender pursuant to this Section 12.12 and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Lender would be
less than the amount of interest payable to such Lender computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be
computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender until the total amount of interest payable to such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Lender if the total amount of interest had been
computed without giving effect to this Section 12.12. 

Section 12.13    EXCULPATION PROVISIONS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO SPECIFICALLY AGREES THAT IT
HAS A DUTY TO READ THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND AGREES 

  
 163 

 
THAT IT IS CHARGED WITH NOTICE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; THAT IT HAS IN FACT READ THIS AGREEMENT AND IS FULLY INFORMED AND HAS FULL NOTICE AND
KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERMS, CONDITIONS AND EFFECTS OF THIS AGREEMENT; THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE THROUGHOUT THE NEGOTIATIONS PRECEDING ITS EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; AND HAS
RECEIVED THE ADVICE OF ITS ATTORNEY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; AND THAT IT RECOGNIZES THAT CERTAIN OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS RESULT IN ONE PARTY ASSUMING THE LIABILITY INHERENT IN
SOME ASPECTS OF THE TRANSACTION AND RELIEVING THE OTHER PARTY OF ITS RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUCH LIABILITY. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT CONTEST THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF ANY EXCULPATORY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ON THE BASIS THAT THE PARTY HAD NO NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH PROVISION OR THAT THE PROVISION IS NOT “CONSPICUOUS.” 

Section 12.14    Collateral Matters; Swap Agreements; Action by
Secured Parties. 
 (a)    The benefit of the Security Instruments and of the provisions of this Agreement
relating to (i) any Collateral securing the Indebtedness shall also extend to and be available to the (A) Secured Swap Providers under any Swap Agreement including any Swap Agreement in existence prior to the Initial Funding Date, but
excluding any additional transactions or confirmations entered into (1) after such Secured Swap Provider ceases to be a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or (2) after assignment by a Secured Swap Provider to a Person that is not a Lender
or an Affiliate of a Lender and (B) the Bank Product Providers in respect of Bank Products. No Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender shall have any voting or consent rights under any Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed
to it under any such Swap Agreements or with respect to Bank Products. 
 (b)    Without limiting the provisions of
Section 12.08, each Lender, in its capacity as a Lender and in its capacity as a Secured Swap Provider and/or a Bank Products Provider, as applicable, and each other Secured Swap Provider and Bank Products Provider, by its
acceptance of the benefits of the Security Instruments creating Liens to secure the Indebtedness, agrees that: 

(i)    it will not, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, exercise any right to set off or apply
any deposits of any kind, or any other obligations owing by it to or for the order of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, against any Indebtedness described in clauses (b) or (c) of the definition thereof (the
“Specified Obligations”) or any other amounts secured by Liens on Collateral; provided that nothing contained in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement shall impair the 

  
 164 

 
right of any Secured Swap Provider to declare an early termination date in respect of any Swap Agreements, or to undertake payment or close-out netting or
to otherwise setoff trades or transactions then existing under such Swap Agreements (such actions described in this proviso to Section 12.14(b)(i), the “Permitted Swap Actions”); 

(ii)    it will not transfer any portion of its rights in respect of any Swap Agreement, Bank Products, or Specified
Obligation, unless (x) the assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Section 12.14(b) and a copy of such writing is delivered to the Administrative Agent or (y) the assignee is a Lender or
Affiliate of a Lender; and 
 (iii)    if it exercises any right of setoff or takes any other action in contravention
of this Section 12.14(b) or in contravention of Section 12.08 (in each case, other than the Permitted Swap Actions) it shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, each Issuing
Bank, each Secured Swap Provider and Bank Products Provider, from any and all losses, expenses and damages (including attorneys’ fees and costs) it shall suffer or incur by reason of such setoff or other action, including losses, expenses and
damages (including attorneys’ fees and costs) caused by or resulting from the release, loss or waiver of any Collateral or any Lien thereon securing the Indebtedness, or the unenforceability of any Security Instrument or Loan Document or any
assertions that any Collateral or Lien securing the Indebtedness thereon was released, lost or waived. 
 (c)    The
provisions of this Section 12.14 shall apply to each Issuing Bank, all Lenders, all Secured Swap Providers and all Bank Products Providers and their respective successors and assigns. The provisions of this
Section 12.14 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Secured Swap Providers and the Bank Products Providers, and neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary shall have rights
as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions. 
 Section 12.15    No Third Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the agreement of the Lenders to make Loans (including any Swingline Lender to make Swingline Loans) and each Issuing Bank to issue, amend, renew or extend Letters of Credit hereunder
are solely for the benefit of the Borrower, and no other Person (including, without limitation, any Subsidiary of the Borrower, any obligor, contractor, subcontractor, supplier or materialsman) shall have any rights, claims, remedies or privileges
hereunder or under any other Loan Document against the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Swingline Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Lender for any reason whatsoever. There are no third party beneficiaries. 

Section 12.16    USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower
that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. 

  
 165 

 Section 12.17    No Advisory or Fiduciary
Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and
acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that: (a)(i) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent or any Lender is intended to be or has been created in respect
of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender has advised or is advising the Borrower or any Subsidiary on other matters; (ii) the arranging and other
services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand; (iii) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent that it has deemed appropriate; and (iv) the Borrower is capable of evaluating,
and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; and (b)(i) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders each is and has been acting solely as a principal and,
except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other Person; (ii) neither the Administrative
Agent nor the Lenders has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims
that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 

Section 12.18    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of
EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA
Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be
bound by: 
 (a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such
liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and 

  
 166 

 (b)    the effects of any
Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i)    a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 
 (ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of,
such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of
ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 

(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion
Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority. 
 Section 12.19    Acknowledgement Regarding
Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and
each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below
applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the United States or any state of the United States): 

(a)    In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes
subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights
in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent that such transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit
Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding
under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater
extent than the extent to which such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if such Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without
limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit
Support.
