(x) for gaseous hydrocarbons, 75% of the monthly Projected Production of gaseous hydrocarbons from the Oil and Gas Properties of the Borrower used in determining the Borrowing Base and not the subject of Commodity Hedging Transactions under
clause (b) below and (y) for liquid hydrocarbons, 75% of the monthly Projected Production of liquid hydrocarbons from the Oil and Gas Properties of the Borrower used in determining the Borrowing Base and not the subject of Commodity
Hedging Transactions under clause (b) below; in either case, as forecast in the most recent engineering evaluation delivered to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent; 

(ii) The “strike prices” under any Commodity Hedging Transactions, at the time of entering into such Commodity Hedging
Transactions, shall not be less than the lowest prices utilized in the most recent base case evaluation of the Oil and Gas Properties used by the Administrative Agent in determining the Borrowing Base, as reported to the Borrower, except that

time such call is sold, (y) both such call and the corresponding put purchase to complete the collar shall cover the same period and the same volume of Projected Production, and (z) such call is otherwise permitted under the terms of this
definition;

the Administrative Agent will choose a substitute U.S. prime rate, for purposes of calculating the interest rate applicable hereunder, which is based on comparable information, until such time as a prime rate is published in The Wall Street

consistent determination of compliance by the Borrower with its obligations under this Agreement, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries will change the manner in which either the last day of its fiscal year or the last day of the first
three fiscal quarters of its fiscal years is calculated without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.

ARTICLE II 
 TERMS OF FACILITIES

 2.1. Reducing Revolving Line of Credit and Letter of Credit Facilities. 

2.1.1. (i) During the Revolving Credit Period, and if no Default exists, each Lender severally agrees, subject to the other terms and
conditions of this Agreement, to make Loans to the Borrower from time to time in amounts not to exceed, in the aggregate at any one time outstanding, its Available Commitment. Each Loan shall be made as part of an Advance 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 

  
 23 

 
relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments are several and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for any other
Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 
 (ii) Subject to the terms hereof, each Advance shall be comprised entirely of FLR 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. 
 (iii) At
the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Advance, such Advance shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. At the time that each FLR Advance is made, such Advance shall be
in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000; provided that an FLR Advance may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the aggregate Unused Available Commitment of the Lenders. Advances 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 three (3) Eurodollar Advances 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 Advances if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Final Maturity Date. 

2.1.2. No Lender shall be obligated to lend to the Borrower, and the Borrower shall not be entitled to borrow hereunder, any amount which
would cause the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Note held by such Lender plus such Lender’s Percentage Share of the Letter of Credit Exposure, to exceed its Available Commitment. 

2.1.3. Upon the terms and conditions and relying on the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, 

(i) the Administrative Agent, as issuing bank for the Lenders, agrees, from the date of this Agreement until the date which is 120 days prior
to the Final Maturity Date, to issue, on behalf of the Lenders ratably in proportion to in their respective Commitments, standby letters of credit hereunder for the account of the Borrower, and to renew and extend standby Letters of Credit. 

(ii) letters of credit shall be issued hereunder and Letters of Credit shall be renewed or extended from time to time on any Business Day
designated by the Borrower following the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the written (or oral, confirmed promptly in writing) request by a Responsible Representative of the Borrower therefor and, if for the issuance of a new letter of credit
hereunder, a Letter of Credit Application; provided, however, that: 
 (a) the expiry date of such requested letter of credit
cannot be later than the earlier of (1) 365 days from the date of issuance, unless automatically renewable by its terms, or, if issued in favor of the Texas Railroad Commission, 15 months following the date of

  
 24 

 
issuance, (2) the last date before which the Borrowing Base is scheduled to reduce to an amount less than the sum of the maximum drawable amount of the requested letter of credit plus the
undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit which, by their terms, might be outstanding on such reduction date or (3) 30 days prior to the Final Maturity Date; 

(b) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Notes of the Lenders plus the Letter of Credit Exposure shall not exceed at any
time the Borrowing Base; 
 (c) the Letter of Credit Exposure shall not exceed at any time $500,000; 

(d) with the exception of standby letters of credit to support plugging bond obligations of the Borrower (for which there shall be no minimum
dollar amount or maximum number of such letters of credit), no letter of credit shall be issued hereunder in an amount less than $25,000; and 

(e) the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to issue a letter of credit pursuant hereto or to renew or extend a Letter of Credit, and
the Borrower shall not be entitled to have a letter of credit issued pursuant hereto or to have a Letter of Credit renewed or extended, if the issuance of the requested letter of credit or the renewal or extension of an existing Letter of Credit
would cause, after taking into account the mandatory reductions in the Borrowing Base required during the proposed term of such requested letter of credit or existing Letters of Credit, the sum of the undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit
plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes, to exceed the Aggregate Available Commitment. 
 (iii) except as
otherwise permitted by clause (ii)(d) above, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to issue a letter of credit hereunder if as a result thereof, there would be outstanding more than five (5) standby Letters of Credit under
clause (i) above. 
 2.1.4. With respect to each Letter of Credit issued by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders shall be deemed
to have acquired, ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments, participations in such Letter of Credit (and any renewals or extensions thereof) in the maximum amount which might be drawn under such Letter of Credit. 

2.1.5. With respect to each Letter of Credit issued by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable,
without regard (i) to the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or (ii) the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any other Person to satisfy any condition herein or otherwise or (iii) any contrary provisions of
this Agreement, ratably in the proportion that its Commitment bears to the Aggregate Commitment, to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for the amount of each Letter of Credit Payment under such Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit
Payment shall be deemed to be a Loan by each Lender to the extent of funds delivered by such Lender to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Letter of Credit Payment and shall, to such extent, be deemed a Loan under and shall be evidenced by
the Note of such Lender. 
 2.1.6. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent on a current basis, as the issuer of each Letter
of Credit, and the officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact and affiliates of the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the 

  
 25 

 
Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably in the proportion that its Commitment bears to the Aggregate Commitment, from and against any and all liabilities,
claims, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including any time following the payment and performance of all obligations and the
termination of this Agreement) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent as the issuer of such Letter of Credit or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates in any way relating
to or arising out of this Agreement or such Letter of Credit or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent as the issuer of such Letter of Credit or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates
under or in connection with any of the foregoing, INCLUDING ANY LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES AND DISBURSEMENTS IMPOSED, INCURRED OR ASSERTED AS A RESULT OF THE
NEGLIGENCE, WHETHER SOLE, CONTRIBUTORY OR CONCURRENT, OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS THE ISSUER OF SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT OR ANY OF ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ATTORNEYS-IN-FACT OR AFFILIATES; provided that no Lender shall
be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent as the issuer of a Letter of Credit. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment and performance of all obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

2.2. Method of Borrowing and Obtaining Letters of Credit. 

2.2.1. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable notice (a “Notice of Borrowing”) not later than
(a) in the case of a Eurodollar Advance, not later than 11:00 a.m. CT, three (3) Business Days before the date of such proposed Advance or (b) in the case of an FLR Advance, not later than 12:00 p.m. CT on the date of such proposed
Advance. Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify each of the following: 
 (i) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such
requested Advance. 
 (ii) the aggregate amount of such requested Advance. 

(iii) whether such Advance is to be an FLR Advance or a Eurodollar Advance. 

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Advance, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the
definition of the term “Interest Period.” 
 If no election as to the Type of Advance is specified, then the requested Advance shall be an
FLR Advance. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Advance, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. Each Notice of Borrowing shall constitute
a representation by the Borrower 

  
 26 

 
that (a) the amount of the requested Advance shall not cause the total principal of the Notes plus the Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the Aggregate Commitment and (b) no Default is
in existence at the time of delivery to the Administrative Agent of such Notice of Borrowing. 
 2.2.2. Upon receipt of a Notice of
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender’s share of the requested Advance, and thereafter such Notice of Borrowing shall not be revocable by the Borrower. 

2.2.3. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed Borrowing Date thereof by wire transfer of immediately
available funds by 2:00 p.m. CT 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 at the Administrative Agent. 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) Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Advance (or, in the case of FLR Advances, by the proposed date of the Advance) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Lender’s Percentage Share of such Advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date 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 Advance available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent 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 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 rate applicable to the Advance. If such Lender pays such amount to the
Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Advance. 
 2.2.4. The Borrower shall give
the Administrative Agent an irrevocable request for a letter of credit prior to 12:00 p.m. CT at least three (3) Business Days before each such requested letter of credit under Section 2.1, by completing and delivering an
irrevocable Notice of Borrowing together with a completed and executed Letter of Credit Application. The Letter of Credit Application must be completed in a manner and shall use such wording as is acceptable to the Administrative Agent. 

2.2.5. Upon receipt of the Letter of Credit Application, the Administrative Agent shall issue such letter of credit if the conditions of
Section 2.1.3, Article V or elsewhere herein have been satisfied. 

  
 27 

 2.2.6. Subject to the terms hereof, in the event that any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall
have taken the steps necessary in the sole judgment of the Administrative Agent to obligate or permit the Administrative Agent to make a payment under such Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered to the Administrative Agent
a Notice of Borrowing under Section 2.2 for an Advance in the amount of such payment amount, regardless of any limitations or unsatisfied conditions set forth herein or if a Default exists. The Administrative Agent shall pay over the
proceeds of such Advance to itself as reimbursement for amounts paid by the Administrative Agent to the beneficiary under such Letter of Credit. 

2.3. Notes. 
 2.3.1. The
Loans of each Lender shall be evidenced by a Note issued by the Borrower, payable to the order of such Lender. 
 2.3.2. Upon receipt of
each Lender’s Note pursuant to Section 5.2.2, the Administrative Agent shall promptly forward such Note to such Lender. 

2.3.3. The outstanding principal of the Note of a Lender reflected by the notations (whether handwritten, electronic or otherwise) by such
Lender on its records shall be deemed rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing on its Note. 
 2.3.4. Each Lender will
record on its books each Loan and the particulars thereof (e.g., date and amount) and each payment of principal or interest made by the Borrower with respect thereto, and may, if such Lender so elects in connection with any transfer or enforcement
of its Note, endorse on the schedule (modified as such Lender shall deem advisable) forming a part thereof appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to each such Loan then outstanding; provided that the failure
of any Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under its Note. Each Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to endorse its Note and to attach to and make a
part of its Note a continuation of any such schedule (modified as such Lender shall deem advisable) as and when required. 
 2.4. Certain
Payments and Prepayments of Principal. 
 2.4.1. If at any time the aggregate principal of the Notes outstanding plus the
Letter of Credit Exposure exceeds the Borrowing Base then in effect, the Borrower shall on the day of such occurrence, repay the principal of the Notes in an amount equal to such excess, except that if the circumstances described in this
Section are the direct result of a decrease of the Borrowing Base under Section 2.8.1, then the provisions of Section 2.8.3 shall apply. 

2.4.2. In the event that a prepayment of the Notes is required under the terms hereof, and the aggregate outstanding principal of the Notes is
less than the amount required to be prepaid, the Borrower shall repay the entire balance of the Notes and, in accordance with the provisions of the relevant Letter of Credit Application executed by the Borrower or otherwise to the satisfaction of
the Administrative Agent, deposit with the Administrative Agent as additional collateral securing the Obligations, an amount of immediately available funds equal to the difference of the Letter of Credit Exposure less the Borrowing Base. 

  
 28 

 2.5. Interest Rates; Payment of Interest. 

2.5.1. Each Loan comprising an FLR Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including
the date such FLR Advance is made or is automatically converted from a Eurodollar Advance into an FLR Advance pursuant to Section 2.9, to but excluding the date it is paid or is converted into a Eurodollar Advance pursuant to
Section 2.9, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the Floating Rate or, if applicable, such higher rate as is specified in Section 3.3 or (b) the Highest Lawful Rate. 

2.5.2. Each Loan comprising a Eurodollar Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first
day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period equal to the lesser of (a) the Adjusted LIBOR Rate in effect for such Advance or, if applicable, such higher rate as is specified in
Section 3.3 or (b) the Highest Lawful Rate. 
 2.5.3. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date for such Loan and on the Final Maturity Date; provided that interest accrued pursuant to Section 3.3 shall be payable on demand. 

2.5.4. Each determination hereunder of interest on the Notes and fees hereunder based on per annum calculations shall be computed on the basis
of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day), subject to the limitations of the Highest Lawful Rate. All interest rates applicable hereunder shall be determined by the
Administrative Agent, and such determinations shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and be binding upon the parties hereto. 
 2.5.5.
If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Advance: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines
(which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period; or 

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by any Lender that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate, as applicable, for such
Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining its or their Loans included in such Advance for such Interest Period; 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or electronic means as promptly as practicable thereafter
and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Advance to, or continuation of
any Advance as, a Eurodollar Advance shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Eurodollar Advance, such Advance shall be made as an FLR Advance. 

2.5.6. Each change in the rate of interest charged hereunder shall become effective automatically and without notice to the Borrower upon the
effective date of each change in the Floating Rate or the Highest Lawful Rate, as the case may be. 

  
 29 

 2.5.7. 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 FLR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or
(c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, 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 LIBOR 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 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 10 days after receipt thereof. 

2.6. Unused Available Commitment Fees; Engineering Fees; Facility Fees; Letter of Credit Fees; Authorized Payments by Lender;
Processing Fee. 
 2.6.1. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders a commitment fee of
one-half of one percent (1/2 of 1.00%) per annum, calculated daily on the actual number of days the Commitments are outstanding on the amount of the Unused Available Commitments of the Lenders in effect from time to time, such commitment fee to
be payable quarterly in arrears on each January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 occurring hereafter, and upon termination of the Commitments. 

2.6.2. (i) No engineering fee shall be due from the Borrower on the Closing Date. Thereafter, if TCB is the sole Lender, the Borrower shall
pay an engineering fee in the amount of $5,000 if the Administrative Agent’s internal engineers perform the engineering review of the Collateral or the actual fees and expenses of any third-party engineers retained by the Administrative Agent
to prepare an engineering report, payable at the time of the Scheduled, Discretionary or Borrower Requested Determinations of the Borrowing Base referred to in Section 2.8.1 or at the time of a redetermination of the Borrowing Base
required under Section 7.9.2. If TCB is not the sole Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders an engineering fee in the amount of $5,000 multiplied by the number of Lenders then
party hereto, payable at the time of each Scheduled, Discretionary or Borrower Requested Determination of the Borrowing Base referred to in Section 2.8.1 or at the time of a redetermination of the Borrowing Base required under
Section 7.9.2. In this connection, the Borrower may elect to have a third-party engineering report prepared by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. or other independent engineering firm approved by the Administrative Agent. 

  
 30 

 2.6.3. To compensate the Lenders for the costs of the extension of credit hereunder, the Borrower
shall pay to the Administrative Agent (i) on the Closing Date, a facility fee of one percent (1.00%) of the initial Borrowing Base for the ratable benefit of the Lenders minus the $4,985 work fee previously paid by the Borrower, and
(ii) thereafter for the ratable benefit of the Lenders upon each determination of an increase in the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.8.1, a facility fee in the amount of one percent (1.00%) of the amount by which the
Borrowing Base is increased over that in effect on the date of determination. 
 2.6.4. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent
at the time of each issuance of a letter of credit hereunder and at the time of each renewal (including extensions) of a Letter of Credit, (a) a letter of credit fee for the ratable benefit of the Lenders equal to the greater of (i) two
percent (2.00%) per annum of the face amount of such letter of credit or Letter of Credit, as applicable, for the maximum number of days from such date of issuance or renewal, as applicable, to the expiry date of such letter of credit or Letter
of Credit, as applicable, and (ii) $1,000, and (b) if TCB is not the sole Lender at the time of the issuance of a letter of credit or renewal of a Letter of Credit, as applicable, a letter of credit issuance fee for the sole account of the
Administrative Agent equal to one-fourth of one percent (0.25%) per annum of the face amount of such letter of credit or Letter of Credit, as applicable, for the maximum number of days from such date of issuance or renewal, as applicable, to the
expiry date of such letter of credit or Letter of Credit, as applicable. 
 2.6.5. At any time TCB is not the sole Lender hereunder, the
Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent on each January 1st occurring hereafter, exclusively for the account of the Administrative Agent, an agency fee in the amount of $5,000
multiplied by the number of Lenders at such time. 
 2.6.6. The Lenders are irrevocably authorized to make Loans under the Notes for the
payment of the fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders required to be paid by the Borrower hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall pay over such Loan proceeds to itself or directly to such other Persons entitled to payment
hereunder. 
 2.6.7. To compensate the Administrative Agent for the cost of processing requests for waivers, partial releases, amendments
and consents regarding the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent at the time of granting such waiver, providing such partial release, entering into such amendment or granting
such consent, the amount of $2,500 for the Administrative Agent’s sole account plus such additional amounts as the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall agree. 

2.7. Termination of Credit Facilities; Maturity of Notes; Right of Borrower to Terminate Credit Facilities. 

2.7.1. The obligations of each Lender to the Borrower under Section 2.1 shall, subject to its continuing obligation to fund
Letters of Credit, terminate on the Final Maturity Date, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms hereof. 

  
 31 

 2.7.2. The Notes shall finally mature no later than the Final Maturity Date, and any unpaid
principal of the Notes and accrued, unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable on such date. 
 2.7.3. The Borrower shall have the
right upon payment in full of the Obligations and the cancellation of all outstanding Letters of Credit, to cancel in full (but not in part) the credit facilities provided for herein, with no right of reinstatement. 

2.8. Determination of Borrowing Base; Automatic Reductions in Borrowing Base; Borrowing Base Deficiency; Notice of Redeterminations;
Requests for Reductions in Borrowing Base. 
 2.8.1. On the basis of the information furnished to the Administrative Agent hereunder and
such other reports, appraisals and information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to determine a new Borrowing Base two (2) times a year prior to the Final Maturity Date,
such determinations to occur approximately six (6) months apart, or at any time it may elect if a Default has occurred which is continuing (the “Scheduled Determinations”), or at such other or additional times prior to the
Final Maturity Date as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders in their reasonable discretion may elect (the “Discretionary Determinations”), and the Administrative Agent shall determine a new Borrowing Base at the
Borrower’s expense at such additional times, but no more often than two (2) times in any 12-month period without the Administrative Agent’s consent, as the Borrower may request in connection with any material change in the value of
the Oil and Gas Properties included in the most recent determination of the Borrowing Base (the “Borrower Requested Determinations”). Such determinations, if made, shall be in the Administrative Agent’s discretion and in
accordance with the customary practices and standards of the Administrative Agent for loans of a similar nature as in effect at the time such determinations are made (except that the Administrative Agent may make adjustments to such determinations
based on the practices and standards of each other Lender) and shall be conclusive as to the Borrower, and any increases in the Borrowing Base must be approved by all of the Lenders and shall be subject to each Lender’s complete credit approval
process. There is no duty, implied or explicit, on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to ever increase the Borrowing Base. 
 2.8.2.
The Borrowing Base shall be automatically reduced as of the 1st day of each month, commencing September 1, 2011, and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the Final Maturity Date. Such reductions in the Borrowing Base each
month shall be in the amount of $0 per month unless redetermined as herein permitted. At the time of each new Borrowing Base determination under Section 2.8.1, the Required Lenders in their sole discretion may increase the amount of such
monthly reductions, and the Lenders may decrease the amount of such monthly reductions. Any decreases in the monthly reductions must be approved by all of the Lenders and shall be subject to each Lender’s complete credit approval process. There
is no duty, implied or explicit, on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to ever decrease the amount of the monthly Borrowing Base reduction amounts. 

2.8.3. Upon the occurrence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency, the Borrower shall, within 30 days following written notice by the Administrative
Agent of the 

  
 32 

 
existence of such Borrowing Base Deficiency, do any one or more of the following in an aggregate amount at least equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency: (i) prepay the principal of the
Notes or (ii) cause to be created first and prior perfected Liens (subject only to Permitted Liens) in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, by instruments reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, on
producing Oil and Gas Properties (or in immediately available funds if the circumstances described in Section 2.4.2 are applicable) which in the opinion of each Lender would increase the Borrowing Base by an amount sufficient, in
combination with clause (i) preceding, to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency. 
 2.8.4. Upon each redetermination
of the Borrowing Base, the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of such determination (which notice may be orally communicated to the Borrower and confirmed promptly thereafter in writing if the Borrowing Base is being decreased or the
monthly Borrowing Base reduction amount is being increased), and the Borrowing Base and the amount by which the Borrowing Base shall be reduced so communicated to the Borrower shall become effective immediately upon such notification (or such other
date as is stated in such notice and regardless of any Notice of Borrowing the Administrative Agent might have received) and shall remain in effect until the next subsequent redetermination of the Borrowing Base. The Administrative Agent may
condition any increase in the Borrowing Base or decrease in the monthly Borrowing Base reduction amount upon the Borrower’s execution and return of the notice given under this Section, which notice may contain and require confirmations by the
Borrower of representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Loan Documents. 
 2.8.5. The Borrower may at any time by written
notice to the Administrative Agent request that the Borrowing Base be reduced (with no right of reinstatement) by an amount specified by the Borrower in such reduction notice, and the Borrowing Base shall be deemed so reduced upon receipt by the
Administrative Agent of such reduction notice. Further, in the event the Borrower is advised of any increase in the Borrowing Base, the Borrower may decline to utilize the increased borrowing availability created thereby and by written notice to the
Administrative Agent irrevocably refuse to accept all or a portion of such increase, but any such refusal notice received by the Administrative Agent more than five (5) Business Days following such increase in the Borrowing Base shall be
treated as a Borrowing Base reduction notice under the immediately preceding sentence. 
 2.9. Interest Elections for Conversions and
Continuations. 
 2.9.1. Each Advance initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing and, in the case of
a Eurodollar Advance, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Advance to a different Type or to continue such Advance and, in the case of a Eurodollar
Advance, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.9. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Advance, in which case each such portion shall be allocated
ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Advance, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Advance. 

  
 33 

 2.9.2. To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.9, the Borrower shall notify
the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Notice of Borrowing would be required under Section 2.2.1 if the Borrower were requesting an Advance of the Type resulting from such election. Each such telephonic
Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

 2.9.3. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information and be in compliance with
Section 2.1: 
 (i) the Advance 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 Advance (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting
Advance); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether the resulting Advance is to be an FLR Advance or a Eurodollar Advance; and 

(iv) if the resulting Advance is a Eurodollar Advance, 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 Advance 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. 

2.9.4. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof
and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Advance. 
 2.9.5. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request
with respect to a Eurodollar Advance prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Advance is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Advance shall be converted to an FLR Advance.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default or a Borrowing Base Deficiency has occurred and is continuing: (i) no outstanding Advance may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Advance (and any Interest Election
Request that requests the conversion of any Advance to, or continuation of any Advance as, a Eurodollar Advance shall be ineffective) and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Advance shall be converted to an FLR Advance at the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 2.10. Request for Extension of Maturity. Following receipt by the Administrative Agent of a
written request from the Borrower, given by the Borrower no earlier than six (6) months prior to the Final Maturity Date, each Lender agrees to consider, in accordance with the 

  
 34 

 
customs and standards of such Lender in effect at such time for loans of a similar nature to the Loan and subject to each Lender’s complete approval process, a request by the Borrower to
extend the Final Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent and Lenders might charge the Borrower fees to process any such request or to grant any such extension. 

ARTICLE III 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS

 3.1. General Provisions as to Payments and Loans.  

3.1.1. All payments of principal and interest on the Notes and of fees hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, by
12:00 p.m. CT on the date such payments are due in federal or other funds immediately available at the principal office of the Administrative Agent referred to in Article XIII and, if not made by such time or in immediately available
funds, then such payment shall be deemed made when such funds are available to the Administrative Agent for its full and unrestricted use. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly
by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Administrative Agent received at such Lender’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII. Whenever any payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or of
fees hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If the date for any payment is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be
payable for such extended time. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized upon notice to the Borrower to charge the account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent, for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes
due hereunder. 
 3.1.2. All payments made by the Borrower on the Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction by reason of,
any Taxes. 
 3.1.3. All requests for Advances or letters of credit hereunder and renewals (including extensions) of Letters of Credit shall
be made on a Business Day. 
 3.1.4. All Advances shall be made available to the Borrower on a Business Day at the Administrative
Agent’s address referred to in Article XIII; all letters of credit hereunder shall be issued on a Business Day; and all Letters of Credit shall be renewed (including extensions) on a Business Day. 

3.1.5. All payments and fundings shall be denominated in Dollars. 

3.2. Telephonic Notices; Notification to the Lenders of Advances, Interest Rates and Commitment Reductions; Non-Receipt of Funds by the
Administrative Agent; Lending Installations. 
 3.2.1. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to extend Advances, to
issue letters of credit hereunder, to renew (including extensions) Letters of Credit and to transfer funds, and hereby authorizes the Lenders to make Loans, based on telephonic, e-mail or other electronic notices made by any Person the
Administrative Agent or 

  
 35 

 
any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is
requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic, e-mail or other electronic notices, signed by a Responsible Representative. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be prima facie, but not conclusive, evidence of the matter notwithstanding anything to the contrary in such confirmation. 

3.2.2. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the contents of each Notice of Borrowing and credit facility or Borrowing
Base reduction notice received by it hereunder. The Administrative Agent will give each Lender and the Borrower prompt notice of each change in the interest rate applicable to the Loans. 

3.2.3. Unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make a payment of principal,
interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated
to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If the Borrower has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment and the Borrower severally agree
to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the
Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (a) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Rate for such day or (b) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the Floating Rate. 

3.2.4. Each Lender may book its Loans at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation from time to
time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation, and the Note payable to such Lender shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of its Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written or facsimile notice to
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, designate, or change any previous designation of, the Lending Installation through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account Note payments are to be made. 

3.3. Default Interest. Unless waived by the Required Lenders, the principal of the Notes shall bear interest at the Default Rate during
any time an Event of Default exists and, to the extent not prohibited by Law, overdue interest on the Notes shall bear interest at the Default Rate. 

3.4. Prepayments Permitted. 

3.4.1. The principal of the Notes and accrued interest thereon may be prepaid by the Borrower in whole or in part at any time and, except as
otherwise specifically provided herein or with respect to Eurodollar Advances, shall be without premium or penalty. Each prepayment of Advances pursuant to this Section shall be applied, first, ratably to any FLR Advances then outstanding, and,
second, to any Eurodollar Advances then outstanding, and if 

  
 36 

 
more than one Eurodollar Advance is then outstanding, to each such Eurodollar Advance in order of priority beginning with the Eurodollar Advance with the least number of days remaining in the
Interest Period applicable thereto and ending with the Eurodollar Advance with the most number of days remaining in the Interest Period applicable thereto. Prepayments of Advances shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of prepayment.
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. 

3.4.2. Except for prepayments required under Sections 2.4.1 and 2.8.3, all prepayments of principal shall be in the minimum amount
of $100,000. 
 3.5. Limitation Period. Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Notes to the contrary, during any Limitation
Period, the interest rate to be charged on amounts evidenced by the Notes shall be the Highest Lawful Rate, and the obligation, if any, of the Borrower for the payment of fees or other charges deemed to be interest under applicable law shall be
suspended. During any period or periods of time following a Limitation Period, to the extent permitted by applicable laws of the State of Texas or the United States of America, the interest rate to be charged hereunder shall remain at the Highest
Lawful Rate until such time as there has been paid to the Lenders (i) the amount of interest in excess of that accruing at the Highest Lawful Rate that the Lenders would have received during the Limitation Period had the interest rate remained
at the otherwise applicable rate, and (ii) the amount of all interest and fees otherwise payable to the Lenders but for the effect of such Limitation Period. 

3.6. 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 FLR 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 FLR 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) FLR Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Affected Loans
shall be applied instead to its FLR Loans. 
 3.7. Ratable Benefit of the Lenders; Sharing of Burdens. As among the Lenders,
the benefits and burdens of this Agreement shall be allocated in accordance with their respective Commitments except as specifically provided otherwise herein. In this connection, if the Commitments (and, thus, the Aggregate Commitment) of the
Lenders have been terminated or reduced to zero dollars, then the amount of each Lender’s Commitment for the purposes of applying and interpreting those provisions of this Agreement which relate to indemnities of the Lenders and other burdens
of this Agreement shall be determined on the basis of the Commitments as they existed immediately preceding such termination or reduction. 

  
 37 

 3.8. LATE CHARGE. If a payment remains unpaid for a period of 15 days or more from the
date such payment is due, the payment shall subject to a delinquency charge equal to 5.00% of the amount of such payment, which charge shall be due upon demand, unless waived by the Required Lenders.

4.1.1. To secure the Obligations, the Borrower will cause the appropriate Person to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent each of
the following documents and instruments: 
 (i) the Mortgages on no less than 80% of the PW9 Value of the Oil and Gas Properties utilized in
determining the Borrowing Base. 
 (ii) the Guaranty of the Parent. 

(iii) a general security agreement from the Borrower. 

(iv) a stock pledge agreement from the Parent, together with original stock certificates representing all of the Parent’s Equity

 5.1.3. the fact that the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement shall be true in

 ARTICLE VI 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BORROWER 

The Borrower and, to the extent applicable to any Guarantor, such Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders as follows with the intention that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall rely thereon without any investigation or verification by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or their respective counsel: 

6.1. Existence and Power. The Borrower: 

6.1.1. is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Utah.

 ARTICLE IX 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 9.1. Amendments
and Waivers.  
 9.1.1. Any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived (either
generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) by a written instrument signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, by the
Administrative Agent); provided that no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by each Lender directly affected thereby (i) increase or decrease the Commitments of such Lender (except for a ratable decrease in the Commitments of
all Lenders) or subject such Lender to any additional obligation; (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on the Note of such Lender or any fees hereunder payable to or for the benefit of such Lender; (iii) postpone the date fixed
for any payment of principal of or interest on the Note of such Lender or any fees hereunder payable to or for the benefit of such Lender; (iv) increase the Borrowing Base or decrease the amount by which the Borrowing Base is scheduled to
decrease each month; (v) postpone the scheduled termination of such Lender’s Commitment; (vi) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the number of Lenders, which shall be
required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement; (vii) amend this Section 9.1 or Section 7.9.2; or (viii) effect a release of any Guaranty.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of such written instrument or of the signature page of such written instrument by telecopy, e-mail, facsimile transmission, electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form or other
electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of the item being sent shall be effective delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such written instrument. 

9.1.2. Certain Guarantors might join in the execution of this Agreement or amendments hereto, but the signature or consent of such Guarantors
shall not be required with respect to any future amendments to this Agreement. 
 9.2. Highest Lawful Interest Rate. The
Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and any other parties to the Loan Documents intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that
none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by
applicable law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this Section 9.2 shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. Regardless of any provision
contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Lenders shall never be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest on all or any part of the Loans, any amount in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate in effect from day to day, and, in the event any
Lender ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which would be deemed excessive interest shall be deemed a partial prepayment of the principal of the Loans and treated hereunder as such; and, if the entire
principal amount of the Loans owed to the Lenders is paid in full, any remaining excess shall be repaid to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate in effect
from 

  
 68 

 
day to day, the Borrower and the Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (i) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as
interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Loans so that the interest rate is uniform
throughout the entire term of the Loans; provided that, if the interest received by the Lenders for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate in effect from day to day, the Lenders shall apply or refund to the
Borrower the amount of such excess as provided in this Section, and, in such event, the Lenders shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving, or receiving interest in excess of the
Highest Lawful Rate in effect from day to day. 
 9.3. INDEMNITY. 

9.3.1. Whether or not any Loans are ever funded or any letter of credit is ever issued hereunder, and in addition to any other
indemnifications herein or in any other Loan Documents, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and defend and hold harmless on a current basis each Indemnified Party, from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, interest, charges,
counsel fees and other expenses and penalties of any kind which any of the Indemnified Parties may sustain or incur in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not any Indemnified Party shall be designated
a party thereto) or otherwise by reason of or arising out of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and/or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The indemnification provisions
in this Section shall be enforceable regardless of whether the liability is based on past, present or future acts, claims or legal requirements (including any past, present or future bulk sales law, environmental law, fraudulent transfer act,
occupational safety and health law, or products liability, securities or other legal requirement), AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY PERSON (INCLUDING THE PERSON FROM WHOM INDEMNIFICATION IS SOUGHT) ALLEGES OR PROVES THE SOLE, CONCURRENT, CONTRIBUTORY
OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE OF THE PERSON SEEKING INDEMNIFICATION OR OF ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTY, OR THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT STRICT LIABILITY IMPOSED ON THE PERSON SEEKING INDEMNIFICATION OR ON ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTY, but not any of the
foregoing in this Section arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Section; with the foregoing indemnity surviving satisfaction of all obligations and the
termination of this Agreement. 
 9.3.2. Any amount to be paid under Section 9.3 to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
shall be a demand obligation owing by the Borrower and if not paid within three Business Days of demand shall bear interest from the date of expenditure by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders until paid at a per annum rate equal to the Default
Rate. The obligations of the Borrower under Section 9.3 shall survive payment of the Notes and the assignment of any right hereunder. 

  
 69 

 9.4. Expenses. 

9.4.1. Whether or not any one or more of the Loans are ever funded, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse Administrative Agent, at

or any amendment hereof or any Default or alleged Default hereunder, (ii) all title review expenses, appraisal expenses, environmental assessment expenses, and any other due diligence expenses incurred, and (iii) if an Event of Default
occurs, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with such Event of Default and collection and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom, fees of
auditors, consultants, engineers and other Persons incurred in connection therewith (including the supervision, maintenance or disposition of the Collateral) and investigative expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith,
which amounts shall be deemed compensatory in nature and liquidated as to amount upon notice to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent and which amounts shall include, but not be limited to (a) all court costs, (b) reasonable
attorneys’ fees, (c) reasonable fees and expenses of auditors and accountants incurred to protect the interests of the Lenders, (d) fees and expenses incurred in connection with the participation by the Administrative Agent as a
member of the creditors’ committee in a case commenced under any Insolvency Proceeding, (e) fees and expenses incurred in connection with lifting the automatic stay prescribed in Title 11 §362 of the United States Code, and

Documents, together with interest at the per annum interest rate equal to the Default Rate, calculated on a basis of a calendar year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, counting the actual number of days elapsed, on each such amount from the
date of notification that the same was expended, advanced, or incurred by the Administrative Agent until the date it is repaid to the Administrative Agent, with the obligations under Section 9.4 surviving the non-assumption of this
Agreement in a case commenced under any Insolvency Proceeding and being binding upon the Borrower or a trustee, receiver, custodian, or liquidator of the Borrower appointed in any such case. 

9.4.2. THE BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY EACH LENDER AGAINST ANY TRANSFER TAXES, DOCUMENTARY TAXES, ASSESSMENTS OR CHARGES MADE BY ANY GOVERNMENTAL
AUTHORITY BY REASON OF THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. 
 9.4.3. Any amount to be paid under
Section 9.4 shall be a demand obligation owing by the Borrower and if not paid within three (3) Business Days of demand shall bear interest from the date of expenditure until paid at a per annum rate equal to the Default Rate. The
obligations of the Borrower under Section 9.4 shall survive payment of the Notes, the assignment of any right hereunder and the termination of this Agreement. 

  
 70

or with respect to the foregoing, and will hold each Lender harmless on a current basis against any loss or liability resulting from nonpayment or delay in payment of any such Taxes (as limited above). The obligations of the Borrower under this

made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Lending 

  
 73 

 
Installation) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve
(including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit
extended by, any Lender (or its Lending Installation) and the result of any of the foregoing is to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Lending Installation) under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect

into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay

Installation if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation
under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution
methods.

Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on

9.18.2. Any and all payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note shall
be made without deduction for any Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from any such payments, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under Section 9.17) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) the
Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Article XIII, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 

9.18.3. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including,
without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes on amounts payable under this Section) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be). This indemnification shall be paid within 15 days after such Lender or the Administrative Agent
(as the case may be) makes appropriate demand therefor. 
 9.18.4. At least five Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or
fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, agrees that it will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two
duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or W-8 ECI or W-8 IMY or W-8 EXP or such other form as may be applicable and allowable under the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations

  
 75 

 
thereunder (collectively, a “Withholding Form”), certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction
or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Lender which so delivers a Withholding Form further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two additional copies of such form (or a successor form) on
or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent Withholding Form so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes,
unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such Withholding Forms inapplicable or which would prevent
such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such Withholding Form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of
United States federal income tax. 
 9.18.5. For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent with the appropriate form pursuant to Section 9.18.4 (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which such form originally was required to be provided),
such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.18.2 or 9.18.3 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that if a Lender, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of
withholding tax, becomes subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps (at the expense of such Lender) as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such
Taxes. 
 9.18.6. If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section, then
such Lender will change the jurisdiction of its Lending Installation if, in the judgment of such Lender, such change (i) will eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue and (ii) is not otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender in its sole judgment. 
 9.18.7. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 9.18 shall
survive payment of the Notes, the satisfaction of all other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE X 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 10.1.
Appointment of Administrative Agent. TCB is hereby appointed Administrative Agent hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the Administrative Agent
of such Lender. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this Article X. The Administrative Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender by reason of this
Agreement. 

  
 76 

 10.2. Powers of the Administrative Agent. (i) The Administrative Agent shall
have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no
implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Administrative Agent. 

(ii) The Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into one or more Intercreditor Agreements and amendments thereto. 

10.3. General Immunity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the
Lenders or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith (INCLUDING ANY OF THE FOREGOING ARISING FROM THE SOLE, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE
NEGLIGENCE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR SUCH DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES), unless such action or omission arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such directors,
officers, agents or employees. 
 10.4. No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals, etc. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any
borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document, including any agreement by the Borrower to furnish information directly to each Lender; (iii) the
satisfaction of any condition specified in Article V, except receipt of the Notes required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or
writing furnished in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose to the Lenders information that is not required to be furnished by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent at such time, but is voluntarily furnished
by the Borrower to TCB either in its capacity as Administrative Agent or in its individual capacity. 
 10.5. Action on Instructions of
Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such
instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders and on all holders of Notes. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under
any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. 

10.6. Employment of Administrative Agents and Counsel. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent
hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or

  
 77 

 
misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to the
agency hereby created and its duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document. 
 10.7. Reliance on Documents, Counsel. The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, electronic transmission, facsimile, e-mail, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed or sent by the proper Person, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Administrative Agent. 

10.8. Reimbursement and Indemnification of Administrative Agent. The Lenders agree to REIMBURSE and INDEMNIFY the Administrative Agent
on a current basis (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Borrower for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrower under the Loan Documents, and (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Lenders in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents, in each case ratably in proportion to the amounts of the Lenders’ respective Commitments as of the
time the request for reimbursement or indemnification is made (or, if at such time all Commitments have terminated, then ratably in proportion to the amounts of the Lenders’ respective Commitments as they existed immediately prior to their
termination). The Lenders also agree to REIMBURSE and INDEMNIFY the Administrative Agent on a current basis for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and
nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated
thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OF THE FOREGOING ARISING OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE, WHETHER SOLE, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE, OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE
SOLE OR CONCURRENT STRICT LIABILITY IMPOSED ON THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT), in each case ratably in proportion to the amounts of the Lenders’ respective Commitments as of the time the liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action,
judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement is incurred (or, if at such time all Commitments have terminated, then ratably in proportion to the amounts of the Lenders’ respective Commitments as they existed immediately prior to their
termination), provided that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Lenders
under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Credit Agreement. 
 10.9. Rights as
a Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and
“Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and each other Lender may accept deposits from, lend money or otherwise extend credit to, and
generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or 

  
 78 

 
other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates unless the Borrower or such Affiliate is specifically
restricted hereunder. The Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, is not obligated to remain a Lender hereunder. 
 10.10.
Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

10.11. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the
Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, 45 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its
intention to resign. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by
the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor
Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent has resigned and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect
of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Administrative Agent has accepted the
appointment. Any such successor Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative
Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Administrative Agent,
the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation of an Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. 

10.12. Applicable Parties. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary or otherwise under any of the provisions of this Article. In performing functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent
shall act solely as the contractual representative of the Lenders and does not assume, nor shall it be deemed to have assumed, any obligation or relationship of trust or agency with or for the Borrower or any legal representative, successor, and
assign of the Borrower. 

  
 79 

 ARTICLE XI 

SETOFF; RATABLE TREATMENTS 

11.1. Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Event of Default
occurs, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or
account of the Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations, whether or not the Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due. Each Lender or Affiliate thereof making such an offset and application shall give the
Borrower and the other Lenders written notice of such offset and application promptly after effecting it. To the extent that the Borrower has accounts, which in the style thereof as reflected in the Administrative Agent’s records are designated
as royalty, joint interest owner or operator accounts, the foregoing right of set off shall not extend to funds in such accounts which belong to, or otherwise arise from payments to the Borrower for the account of, third-party royalty, joint
interest owners, or operators. 
 11.2. Ratable Treatments; Adjustments. 

11.2.1. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) each borrowing pursuant to this Agreement shall be made from the
Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments, (ii) each payment by the Borrower of fees shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments, (iii) each payment of
principal of Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the principal balances of their respective Notes, and (iv) each payment of interest on the Notes shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata
in accordance with their respective shares of the aggregate amount of interest due and payable to the Lenders under the Notes. 
 11.2.2.
The Administrative Agent shall distribute all payments received by it with respect to the Obligations promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. In the event that any payments made hereunder on the Obligations at any particular time are
insufficient to satisfy in full the Obligations due and payable at such time, such payments shall be applied (i) first, to that portion of the Obligations consisting of fees and expenses then due and payable, (ii) second, to that portion
of the Obligations consisting of accrued, unpaid interest then due and payable, (iii) third, to that portion of the Obligations consisting of principal then due and payable, and (iv) last, to any other Obligations. 

11.2.3. If any Lender (for purposes of this Section, a “Benefitted Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or
part of its portion of the Obligations, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8.1.4 or
Section 8.1.5, or otherwise) in an amount greater than such Lender was entitled to receive pursuant to the terms hereof, such 

  
 80 

 
Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of the Obligations of such other Lenders, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such
Collateral or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such Collateral or proceeds with each of the Lenders according to the terms hereof. If all or any portion of such
excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price and benefits returned by each of the other Lenders, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The
Borrower agrees that each such Lender so purchasing a portion of the Obligations of another Lender may exercise all rights of payment (including rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of
such portion. If any Lender ever receives, by voluntary payment, exercise of rights of set-off or banker’s lien, counterclaim, cross-action or otherwise, any funds of the Borrower to be applied to the Obligations, or receives any proceeds by
realization on or with respect to any Collateral, all such funds and proceeds shall be forwarded immediately to the Administrative Agent for distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

ARTICLE XII 
 BENEFIT OF
AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS 
 12.1. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that (i) the Borrower shall not have any right to assign its rights or obligations
under the Loan Documents and (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3. Notwithstanding clause (ii) of this Section 12.1, any Lender may at any time, without the consent
of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Note to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its
obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such payee complies with Section 12.3 in the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of
any other transfer, a written notice of the transfer is filed with the Administrative Agent. Any Transferee of a Note agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent
of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any Note, shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent Transferee of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor. 

12.2. Participations; Voting Rights; Setoffs by Participants. 

12.2.1. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or
other entities (each a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event
of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under the Loan 

  
 81 

 
Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. 

12.2.2. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan, Letter of Credit or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which forgives principal, interest or fees or reduces the
interest rate or fees payable with respect to any such Loan, Letter of Credit or Commitment, postpones any date fixed for any regularly-scheduled payment of principal of, or interest or fees on, any such Loan, Letter of Credit or Commitment,
releases any guarantor of any such Loan or Letter of Credit or releases any substantial portion of Collateral, if any, securing any such Loan or Letter of Credit. 

12.2.3. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 in respect
of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, and each Lender shall retain the right of
setoff provided in Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in
Section 11.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender. 

12.3. Assignments; Effective Date. 

12.3.1. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more banks
or other entities (each a “Purchaser”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be in such form as may be agreed by the parties thereto and reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent (the “Assignment Agreement”) or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto. The consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall be required prior
to an assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate thereof. Each such assignment shall (unless it is to a Lender or an Affiliate thereof or each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
otherwise consents) be in an amount not less than the lesser of (i) $2,500,000 or (ii) the remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment (calculated as at the date of such assignment). 

12.3.2. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent of a notice of assignment in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent (a “Notice of Assignment”), together with any consents required by Section 12.3.1, and (ii) payment of a $3,500 processing fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment, such
assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such Notice of Assignment. The Notice of Assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the
Commitment and Loans 

  
 82 

 
under the applicable Assignment Agreement are “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be
“plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by the Lenders and shall have all the
rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall be required to release the
transferor Lender with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Loans assigned to such Purchaser. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3.2, the transferor Lender, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal
amounts reflecting their Commitment, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment. 
 12.4. Dissemination of Information. The Borrower
authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Lender to disclose to any Transferee and any prospective Transferee any and all information in the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates.

 12.5. Tax Treatment. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is organized under the laws of
any jurisdiction other than the United States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 9.19.4. 

ARTICLE XIII 
 NOTICES 

13.1. Notices. Except as otherwise specifically permitted herein, all notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder
shall be in writing (including electronic transmission, facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party: (x) in the case of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at its address or facsimile number set forth on
the signature pages hereof, (y) in the case of any Lender, at its address or facsimile number set forth on the signature pages hereof or in any Assignment Agreement which has become effective pursuant to Article XII or (z) in the
case of any party, at such other address or facsimile number as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.1. Each such
notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the facsimile number specified in this Section and confirmation of receipt is received (the receipt thereof shall be
deemed to have been acknowledged upon the sending Person’s receipt of its facsimile machine’s confirmation of successful transmission; provided that if the day on which such facsimile is received is not a Business Day or is after 4:00 p.m.
CT on a Business Day, then the receipt of such facsimile shall be deemed to have been acknowledged on the next following Business Day), (ii) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after such communication is deposited in the mail with
first class postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid, or (iii) if given by any other means, when delivered (or, in the case of electronic transmission, received) at the address specified in this Section; except that notices to the
Administrative Agent 

  
 83 

 
under Article II shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent, and except that oral notices to the Borrower of decreases in the Borrowing Base or increases in
the amount of the monthly Borrowing Base reductions shall be effective when so communicated to the Borrower. 
 13.2. Change of
Address. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may each change the address for service of notice upon it by a notice in writing to the other parties hereto.

 FORM OF PROMISSORY NOTE 
  

					
	$    ,000,000	  	Dallas, Texas	  	August 29, 2011

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED and WITHOUT GRACE, the undersigned (“Borrower”) promises to pay to the order of
                     (“Lender”), at the banking quarters of Texas Capital Bank, N.A., in Dallas, Dallas County, Texas, the amount of
$    ,000,000, or so much thereof as may be advanced and be outstanding under this Note pursuant to the Credit Agreement dated of even date herewith by and between Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lender and certain
other lenders (as amended, restated, or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), together with interest at the rates and calculated as provided in the Credit Agreement. 

Reference is hereby made to the Credit Agreement for matters governed thereby, including, without limitation, certain events which will
entitle the holder hereof to accelerate the maturity of all amounts due hereunder. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Note shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 

The date and amount, Type, interest rate, Interest Period and maturity of each Loan made by the Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made
on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Lender on its books and, prior to any transfer of this Note, may be endorsed by the Lender on the schedules attached hereto or any continuation thereof or on any separate record
maintained by the Lender. Failure to make any such notation or to attach a schedule 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
this Note. 
 This Note is issued pursuant to and shall be governed by the Credit Agreement and the holder of the Note shall be entitled to
the benefits of the Credit Agreement. This Note shall finally mature on the Final Maturity Date. 
 Without being limited thereto or
thereby, this Note is secured by the Security Documents. 
 The Borrower, and each surety, endorser, guarantor, and other party ever liable
for payment of any sums of money payable on this Note, jointly and severally waive presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice of protest and nonpayment, and notice of the intention to accelerate, and agree that their liability on this Note
shall not be affected by any renewal or extension in the time of payment hereof, by any indulgences, or by any release or change in any security for the payment of this Note, and hereby consent to any and all renewals, extensions, indulgences,
releases, or changes, regardless of the number of such renewals, extensions, indulgences, releases, or changes. 
 THIS NOTE SHALL BE
GOVERNED AND CONTROLLED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES THEREOF RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAW.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT 

This First Amendment to Credit Agreement (“Amendment”) is entered into between TEXAS CAPITAL BANK, N.A., a national banking
association, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party to the Credit Agreement; and Lynden USA Inc., a Utah corporation, as borrower, and is dated February 2, 2012. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement between the Administrative Agent,
such lenders and such borrower dated August 29, 2011 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), are used herein as therein defined, unless otherwise defined herein or the context otherwise requires. 

R E C I T A L S: 
 WHEREAS, the
Borrower has requested that the Lenders amend the Credit Agreement and increase the Borrowing Base; and 
 WHEREAS, the Lenders are willing
to amend the Credit Agreement under the terms and conditions set forth herein; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree as follows: 

1. The following definition is hereby added to Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement as follows: 

“First Amendment to Credit Agreement” means the First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated February 2, 2012, between
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, amending the Credit Agreement. 
 2. The following definitions located in
Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their respective entireties as follows: 

“Borrowing Base” means the amount most recently determined and designated by the Administrative Agent as the Borrowing Base
in accordance with Section 2.8.1, but in no event in excess of the Aggregate Commitment, as such Borrowing Base is reduced in accordance with Section 2.8.2. The Borrowing Base under Section 2.8.1 is deemed to be
$11,100,000 as of the date of the First Amendment to Credit Agreement. 
 “Compliance Certificate” means a certificate,
substantially in the form attached to the First Amendment to Credit Agreement entitled “Form of Compliance Certificate,” executed by a Responsible Representative and furnished to the Administrative Agent from time to time in accordance
with Section 7.2.1. 
 3. Section 2.8.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as
follows: 
 “2.8.2 The Borrowing Base shall be automatically reduced as of the 1st day of each month, commencing February 1, 2012,
and continuing on the first day of each month 

  
 1 

 
thereafter until the Final Maturity Date. Such reductions in the Borrowing Base each month shall be in the amount of $0 per month unless redetermined as herein permitted. At the time of each new
Borrowing Base determination under Section 2.8.1, the Required Lenders in their sole discretion may increase the amount of such monthly reductions, and the Lenders may decrease the amount of such monthly reductions. Any decreases in the
monthly reductions must be approved by all of the Lenders and shall be subject to each Lender’s complete credit approval process. There is no duty, implied or explicit, on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to ever decrease the amount of
the monthly Borrowing Base reduction amounts.” 
 4. Section 7.2.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated
in its entirety as follows: 
 “7.2.1. (i) as soon as available and in any event within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year of
the Borrower, copies of the unaudited statement of assets and liabilities of the Borrower as of the end of such fiscal year, and copies of the related statements of revenues and expenses, operations, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent,
changes in owners’ equity and cash flow for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all in reasonable detail, denominated in Dollars and prepared in conformity with IFRS (except
for the absence of footnotes, which shall not be required). 
 (ii) on or before 60 days after the last day of each fiscal quarter of the
Borrower other than the last fiscal quarter of each fiscal year, (a) a copy of the unaudited consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of the Borrower as at the close of such quarter and from the beginning of such fiscal year to the end
of such quarter, (b) a copy of the related statements of revenues and expenses, operations, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, changes in owners’ equity and cash flows for the quarter just ended and for that portion of the year
ending on such last day, all in reasonable detail, denominated in Dollars and prepared in conformity with IFRS (except for the absence of footnotes, which shall not be required) and on a basis consistent with the financial statements previously
delivered by the Borrower under this Section and (c) an identification of all Contingent Obligations and Guarantees by the Borrower. 

(iii) as soon as available and in any event within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Parent, copies of the consolidated (and,
if requested by the Administrative Agent, consolidating) statement of assets and liabilities of the Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries (including the Borrower) as of the end of such fiscal year, and copies of the related statements of revenues
and expenses, operations, changes in owners’ equity and cash flow for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all in reasonable detail, denominated in Dollars and prepared in
accordance with IFRS; such financial statements to be audited by a firm of independent certified public accountants, or the Canadian equivalent thereof, selected by the Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. 

(iv) on or before 60 days after the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Parent other than the last fiscal quarter of each fiscal year,
(a) a copy of the unaudited 

  
 2 

 
consolidated (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, consolidating) statement of assets and liabilities of the Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries (including the Borrower) as at the
close of such quarter and from the beginning of such fiscal year to the end of such quarter, (b) a copy of the related statements of revenues and expenses, operations, changes in owners’ equity and cash flows for the quarter just ended and

and (c) an identification of all Contingent Obligations and Guarantees by the Parent. 
 (v) simultaneously with the delivery of each
set of financial statements pursuant to the preceding clauses of this Section, a Compliance Certificate of the Borrower stating that such financial statements fairly and accurately reflect in all material respects the financial condition and results
of operation of the Borrower or the Parent, as applicable, for the periods and as of the dates set forth therein, subject, with respect to quarterly financial statements, to changes resulting from normal year-end adjustments and that the signers
have reviewed the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and have made, or caused to be made under their supervision, a review of the transactions and financial condition of the Borrower during the fiscal period covered by such
financial statements, and that such review has not disclosed the existence during such period, and that the signers do not have knowledge of the existence as of the date of such certificate, of any condition or event which constitutes a Default, or,
if any such condition or event existed or exists, specifying the nature and period of existence thereof and what action the Borrower has taken or is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. For any financial statements delivered
electronically by a Responsible Representative in satisfaction of the reporting requirements set forth in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) preceding that are not accompanied by the required Compliance Certificate, that Responsible
Representative shall nevertheless be deemed to have certified the factual matters described in this clause (v) with respect to such financial statements; however, such deemed certification shall not excuse or be construed as a waiver of the
Borrower’s obligation to deliver the required Compliance Certificate. 
 (vi) within 30 days after each filing thereof by the Borrower
and each Guarantor with any Governmental Authority, complete copies of the federal and state income tax returns so filed.” 
 5. The
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent upon execution of this Amendment,

 10. Conditions to Effectiveness.
