such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof, and (C) without giving effect to any change to GAAP occurring after May 26, 2017 as a result of the adoption of any proposals set forth in the
Proposed Accounting Standards Update, Leases (Topic 842), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on February 25, 2016, or any other updates or proposals issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in connection
therewith, in each case if such change would require treating any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the right to use) as a capital lease where such lease (or such similar arrangement) was not required to be so treated under GAAP as in effect
on the Closing Date.

deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its
Equity Interests at such time.

Section 2.02    Promise to Repay Loan; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to
repay the outstanding principal amount of all Loans in full on the Maturity Date, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender.

of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(c)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made
hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable to each Lender hereunder, and (iii) any amount received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each
Lender’s share thereof. 

  
 39 

 (d)    The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(e)    Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of
Exhibit C. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in such form. Thereafter, the Loans
evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including, to the extent requested by any assignee, after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the
payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 

Section 2.03    Repayment of Loans. (a) All Loans shall be due and payable as set forth in Section 2.02(a).

 (b)    All mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.04(b) or Section 2.04(c) or optional prepayments of
the Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(a), shall be applied ratably among the Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the phrase “ratably among the Lenders” shall mean ratably based upon the respective Percentage of each Lender at the time
of such prepayment. 
 (c)    Prior to any repayment or prepayment of the Loans, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the scheduled date of such repayment or prepayment. Each repayment or prepayment shall be applied to the Loans such
that each Lender receives its ratable share of such repayment or prepayment (based upon the respective Percentages of the Lenders at the time of such repayment or prepayment). 

Section 2.04    Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to
prepay Loans in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Payment Multiple and not less than the Payment Minimum or, if less, the amount outstanding, subject to prior notice in
accordance with Section 2.03(c). 
 (b)    The Borrower shall apply (i) all Material Debt-Related Net Proceeds
received by the MLP Entity, SMPH, SMP, the Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Borrower and (ii) all Net Proceeds which, in the aggregate, are in excess of $125.0 million, received by the MLP Entity, SMPH, SMP, the Borrower or
any Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Borrower in connection with (x) the incurrence of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 6.01(j) and (y) any disposition made pursuant to Section 6.05(j), in each case, promptly upon (and in any event
within three Business Days of) receipt thereof to prepay any outstanding Loan in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 2.03; provided that the Borrower may use a ratable portion of

  
 40 

 
such Material Debt-Related Net Proceeds or Net Proceeds, as applicable, to prepay Indebtedness outstanding under the NewCo Credit Agreement (with such prepaid Indebtedness permanently
extinguished), in an amount not to exceed the product of (y) the amount of such Material Debt-Related Net Proceeds or Net Proceeds, as applicable, multiplied by (z) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of
Indebtedness under the NewCo Credit Agreement and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness under the NewCo Credit Agreement and the outstanding principal amount of Loans hereunder. 

(c)    The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Loans required to be
made by the Borrower pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.04 at least three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation
of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the prepayment. 

Section 2.05    Fees. All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Collateral
Agent. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances. 
 Section 2.06    Interest.

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other amount payable by
the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower shall pay interest on such overdue amount, after as well as before judgment, at a rate equal to 12.00% per annum plus the
rate applicable to such Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided, that this paragraph (b) shall not apply to any Default or Event of Default that has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.08. 

(c)    Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in kind by the Borrower in arrears on the last day of each calendar
quarter by adding the amount thereof to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to the applicable Lenders, and such increased principal amount shall thereafter bear interest at the rate per annum set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b)
of this Section, as applicable, and be paid in accordance with Sections 2.02, 2.03 and 2.04; provided, that, at the option of the Administrative Agent, interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be payable on
demand. 
 (d)    All computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent taking into account the actual
number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable pursuant to this Section, and on the basis of a year of 360 days. 

  
 41 

 Section 2.07    Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on
account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except to the extent such withholding or deduction is required by applicable law. If a Loan Party, an Agent or
any other Person acting on behalf of an Agent in regards to payments hereunder shall be required to deduct Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments by applicable law, then (i) the sum payable by the Loan Party shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent or Lender, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes been made, (ii) such Loan Party, Agent or other Person acting on behalf of the Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party, Agent or other
Person acting on behalf of the Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.    For purposes of this Section 2.07, if a Lender is treated as a
domestic partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes any withholding or payment of a U.S. federal withholding tax by such Lender or by any direct or indirect member of such Lender that is a domestic partnership or withholding foreign
partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with respect to any payments made by or on behalf of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, shall be considered a withholding or deduction of such U.S. federal withholding
tax by Borrower. 
 If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and Administrative
Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the
Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied
with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph, FATCA shall include any amendments to FATCA made after the Closing Date. 

(b)    In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any Other Taxes payable on account of any obligation of such Loan Party and
upon the execution, delivery or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, the Loan Documents, to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(c)    Each Loan Party shall indemnify each Agent and each Lender, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for
the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Agent or such Lender as determined in the final, nonappealable judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction) without duplication of any amounts indemnified under Section 2.07(a)) imposed or assessed on (and whether or not paid directly by) the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, with respect to any payment by or on
account of any obligation of such Loan Party under, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan 

  
 42 

 
Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, that a certificate as to the amount of such payment, liability, imposition or
assessment and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation for such payment or liability delivered to such Loan Party by a Lender, or by an Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error
of the Lender or the Agent, as applicable. 
 (d)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e)    Each Lender that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a
“Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty), W-8EXP, W-8IMY (together with any required attachments) or
Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with
respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit D and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors
thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender (with any other required forms attached) claiming complete exemption from or a reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax on all
payments by or on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, claiming complete exemption (or otherwise establishing an exemption)
from U.S. backup withholding on all payments under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender, to the extent it may lawfully do so, on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or,
in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each Lender, to the extent it may lawfully do so, shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any
form previously delivered by such Lender. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Without limiting the foregoing, any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax otherwise
indemnified against by a Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.07 with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower or the relevant Governmental Authority (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), to the extent
such Lender is legally entitled to do so, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to
permit such payments to be made without such withholding tax or at a reduced rate; provided, that in such Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice such Lender. 

  
 43 

 (f)    The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, on or
before the Closing Date, two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. 
 (g)    If an Agent or any
Lender determines, in good faith and in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 2.07, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.07 with respect to the Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent or Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund)
as is determined by the Agent or Lender in good faith and in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Loan Party,
upon the request of the Agent or Lender agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or Lender
in the event such Agent or Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Agent or Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes
which it deems confidential) to the Loan Parties or any other Person. 
 Section 2.08    Payments Generally; Pro
Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable
under Section 2.07 or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any defense, recoupment, set-off or
counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments
shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.07 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day,
the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding 

  
 44 

 
Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of
any Loan shall be made in U.S. Dollars. All payments of other amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made in U.S. Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to
have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used
by the Administrative Agent to make such payment. 
 (b)    If at any time insufficient funds are received by and
available to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due from the Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied first, to any Agent’s fees and reimbursable
expenses then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents; second, to all reimbursable expenses of the Lenders then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective
amounts of such fees and expenses payable to them; third, to interest and fees then due and payable hereunder, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts of such interest and fees payable to them; and fourth, to
the principal balance of the Loans, until the same shall have been paid in full, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to such Lender’s Percentage. 

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

(d)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment
by the Borrower is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, 

  
 45 

 
then each of the Lenders, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day
from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
 (e)    If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be
made by it pursuant to Section 2.08(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to
satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

(f)    None of the funds or assets of the Borrower that are used to pay any amount due pursuant to this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents shall constitute, to the Borrower’s knowledge, funds obtained from transactions with or relating to Anti-Corruption Laws or Sanctions.

execution and delivery thereof, be effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case

obtained by filing financing statements, making such other filings specified therein or by possession, as security for the Obligations. In each case of the security interests in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
described in the preceding sentences, such security interests are prior and superior in right to any other Person, subject, in the case of Pledged Collateral, to Liens permitted by Section 6.02(d), (e), (n), (u), (bb), (ff) and (hh); in the
case of Mortgaged Property, to Permitted Real Property Liens; and in the case of any other Collateral (except Pledged Collateral and Mortgaged Property), to Liens permitted by Section 6.02. 

Section 3.15    Foreign Corrupt Practices, Sanctions. None of the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any
director, officer, agent or employee of any such the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is aware of or has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in a material violation by such Persons of the FCPA or any other Anti-Corruption
Laws, including without limitation, making use of the mails or any means or instrumentality of interstate commerce corruptly in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay or authorization of the payment of any money, or other Property, gift,
promise to give, or authorization of the giving of anything of 

  
 51 

 
value to any “foreign official” (as such term is defined in the FCPA) or any foreign political party or official thereof or any candidate for foreign political office, in contravention
of the FCPA, and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have conducted their business in material compliance with the FCPA. None of (i) the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of Borrower or its
Subsidiaries, any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (ii) to the knowledge of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, any agent or Affiliate of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which agent or Affiliate will act in any
capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facility established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person.

 (b)    Do or
cause to be done all things necessary to (i) in the Borrower’s reasonable business judgment obtain, preserve, renew, extend and keep in full force and effect the permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, trademarks, service marks,

therewith, if any, may be properly conducted at all times (in each case except as expressly permitted by this Agreement); in each case in this paragraph (b) except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.02    Insurance. (a) Keep its insurable properties insured at all times by
financially sound and reputable insurers in such amounts as shall be customary for similar businesses and maintain such other reasonable insurance, of such types (including, for the avoidance of doubt, property and casualty insurance policies), to
such extent and against such risks, as is customary with companies in the same or similar businesses and maintain such other insurance as may be required by law or any other Loan Document. 

(b)    To the extent any “Building” or “Manufactured (Mobile) Home” (each, as defined in the
applicable Flood Insurance Laws and only to the extent not constituting Excluded Assets) that comprises a Gathering Station (or part thereof) constituting Mortgaged Property is subject to the provisions of the Flood Insurance Laws,
(i) (A) concurrently with the delivery of any Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and (B) at any other time after the delivery of such Mortgage, if necessary for compliance with applicable Flood

or damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 5.02, it being understood that (A) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall look solely to their insurance companies or any parties other
than the aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Agents, the Lenders or their agents or employees. If, however, the insurance policies do not
provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then the Borrower hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to waive, and to cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to waive, its right of recovery, if any,
against the Agents, the Lenders and their agents and employees; and 
 (ii)    the designation of any
form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders under this Section 5.02 shall in no event be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral

Section 5.03    Taxes and Contractual Obligations. (a) Pay and discharge promptly when due all material Taxes,
assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, as well as all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies or
otherwise that, if unpaid, might give rise to a Lien upon such properties or any part thereof; provided, that such payment and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such Tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim to the extent that
(i) the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, and the Borrower or the affected Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP
with respect thereto or (ii) the failure to pay or discharge would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b)    With respect to payment obligations in any contract or agreement, pay, discharge or otherwise satisfy at or before
maturity or before they become delinquent, as the case may be, all its material obligations of whatever nature that by law have become or might become a Lien (other than with respect to Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02) imposed upon it
or upon its Properties, except where the amount or validity thereof is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and adequate reserves in conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been provided on the books of the
Borrower or the affected Restricted Subsidiary or if the failure to pay, discharge or otherwise satisfy such obligation would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 56 

 (c)     (i) Perform and observe in all material respects all of the
covenants and agreements (other than covenants or agreements to pay covered in Section 5.03(b)) contained in each Material Contract to which the Borrower or a Subsidiary Loan Party is a party that are provided to be performed and observed on
the part of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Loan Party (taking into account any grace period); and (ii) diligently and in good faith enforce, using appropriate procedures and proceedings, all of such Person’s material rights and remedies
under (including taking all diligent actions required to collect amounts owed to such Person by any other parties thereunder) each Material Contract, except, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), where the failure to comply with any of the

terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 

(b)    [Reserved.]

its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender, and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires,
include a Person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of
business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent:

provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent
to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law;

such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; 
 (d)    shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
(i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in
Sections 9.08 and 7.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment; 

(e)    shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the

other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (v) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent; and

such Default or Event of Default is received by such Agent from the Borrower or a Lender. 

Section 8.04    Reliance by Agents. Any Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document, direction or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by an appropriate Person. Any Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by an appropriate Person, and shall not incur any liability
for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, any Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless
such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Any Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may include counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it,
and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

  
 87 

 Section 8.05    Delegation of Duties. Without in any way limiting
Section 8.11, any Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more co-agents, sub-agents and/or attorneys-in-fact appointed by such Agent. Any Agent and any such co-agents, sub-agents and/or attorneys-in-fact may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their
respective Related Parties.

 Section 8.06    Resignation of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give
notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), which shall be a financial institution with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution with an office in the United States, and having a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$1.0billion. In
the case of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, if no such successor shall have been appointed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives
notice of its resignation, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, (b) except for indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender
directly, until such time as the Required Lenders and the Borrower appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section and (c) the Borrower and the Lenders agree that in no event shall the retiring Administrative Agent or

kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the failure of a successor Administrative Agent to be appointed and to
accept such appointment. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or retired
Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring or retired Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the
Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article (including Section 8.10) and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit
of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

  
 88 

Section 8.07    Non-Reliance on the Agents; Other Lenders. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time
deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the MLP Entity, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of
any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower or any other Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but
not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 
 (a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole
amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.05, 8.10, and 9.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b)    to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making
of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.05, 8.10 and 9.05. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative
Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in
respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding and to subordinate any Lien on any Property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien. 

Section 8.09    Authorization for Certain Releases. With respect to releases and terminations delivered pursuant to
Section 9.18, each Agent and each Lender hereby irrevocably 

  
 89

shall only act or exercise any right hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing each Agent’s
authority provided for in the previous sentence. 
 Section 8.10    Indemnification. Each Lender severally agrees
(i) to reimburse each Agent, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (in accordance with the respective principal amounts of its applicable outstanding Loans)) of any expenses incurred for the benefit of the
Lenders by such Agent, including reasonable counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, which shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless
each Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees or agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all liabilities, Taxes, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, or any of them in any
way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower;
provided, that no Lender shall be liable to any Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent found in a final nonappealable
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents.

 90 

 Section 8.12    Withholding. To the extent required by any
applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding
Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority
asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the
Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or
indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and
out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. 

Section 8.13    Enforcement. The authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents against any Loan Party or any of them shall be vested in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement may be instituted and maintained by, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in accordance with
Section 7.01 and the Collateral Documents for the benefit of each Lender, as applicable; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent from exercising on its own behalf the
rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising any enforcement rights, including
setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.06 (subject to the terms of Section 2.08(c)), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to
any Loan Party under any federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as
applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, pursuant to Section 7.01 and the

  
 91 

 
Collateral Documents, as applicable and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and
subject to Section 2.08(c), any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

regardless of any investigation made by such Persons or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreements contained herein, indemnification and reimbursement obligations contained herein (including pursuant to Section 2.07 and 9.05) shall

 92 

 Section 9.03    Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Agents and when the Administrative Agent shall have received copies hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agents and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns. 

Section 9.04    Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section.
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of
this Section), the Lenders, the Agents and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Lenders and the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 (b)    (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more
assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans at the time owing to it) without the prior written consent of any party other than Lender and applicable assignees. 

(ii)    Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A)    each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (B)    the parties to each assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance; 
 (C)    no such
assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates; and 
 (D)    notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no such assignment shall be made to a natural person. 

(iii)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section
below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a
Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning 

  
 93 

 
Lender hereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.07 and 9.05. Any assignment or
transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall not be effective as an assignment hereunder. 

(iv)    The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at
one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time
to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms
hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice. 
 (v)    The parties to each assignment shall deliver to, and for the account of, the
Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. Upon its
receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee and the processing and recordation fee referred to above (unless waived as set forth above), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment
and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

(c)    (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or
more banks or other entities (other than the Borrower or any of its Affiliates) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing
to it); provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the
Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument (oral or written) pursuant to which
a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to exercise rights under and to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, that (x) such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in
Section 9.04(a)(i) or 

  
 94 

 
clause (i) through (vi) of the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) that affects such Participant and (y) no other agreement (oral or written) in respect of the foregoing with
respect to such Participant may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits (and subject to the requirements and
limitations) of Section 2.07 to the same extent as if it were the Lender from whom it obtained its participation and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided, that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.08(c) as though it were a Lender. 

(ii)    A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.07 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Borrower may withhold its consent if a Participant would be entitled to require greater payment than the applicable Lender under such Sections. A Participant that would be a
Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.07 to the extent such Participant fails to comply with Section 2.07(e) as though it were a Lender. 

(d)    Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a
non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the
Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the
identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such loan or other
obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed Treasury Regulations
(or any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation
for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 
 (e)    Any Lender may at any time
pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its promissory note, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank
or central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any
of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto, and any such pledgee (other than a pledgee that is the Federal Reserve Bank or central bank) shall acknowledge in writing that its rights
under such pledge are in all respects subject to the limitations applicable to the pledging Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 

  
 95 

 Section 9.05    Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Borrower agrees
to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents and their respective Affiliates, in connection with the preparation of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, including the reasonable and documented out of pocket fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent (limited, in the case of legal fees and disbursements, to one primary external counsel of the
Administrative Agent, and one local external counsel of the Administrative Agent in each relevant jurisdiction), the administration of this Agreement (including expenses incurred in connection with due diligence and initial and ongoing Collateral
examination to the extent incurred with the reasonable prior approval of the Borrower and the reasonable fees, disbursements and charges for counsel in each jurisdiction where Collateral is located) and any amendments, modifications or waivers of
the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the Transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated). The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents and their respective Affiliates in connection with the enforcement and protection of their rights in connection with this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents or the Lenders (including external counsel and the reasonable and documented
allocated costs of internal counsel for the Agents or any Lender); provided, that, absent any conflict of interest, the Agents and Lenders shall not be entitled to indemnification for the fees, charges or disbursements of more than one
counsel in each jurisdiction. 
 (b)    The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agents, each Lender and each Related Party
of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, penalties, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including
reasonable and documented counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the MLP Entity, any
Indemnitee or any other Person initiated or is a party thereto; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, penalties, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are
determined by a final, nonappealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction (A) to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (or any of such Indemnitee’s Related Parties) or
(B) to arise from disputes solely among Indemnitees if such dispute (i) does not involve any action or inaction by the MLP Entity, the Borrower or any Subsidiary and (ii) is not related to any action by an Indemnitee in its capacity
as Agent. Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, penalties, claims, damages, liabilities and
related expenses, including reasonable and documented counsel or consultant fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (A) any Environmental Event
or Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (B) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of 

  
 96 

 
Hazardous Materials at, under, on or from any Real Property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or by any predecessor of the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries, or any property at which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has sent Hazardous Materials for treatment, storage or disposal; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, penalties, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment in a court of competent
jurisdiction. In the event of any of the foregoing, each Indemnitee shall be indemnified whether or not such amounts are caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of any Indemnitee (except to
the extent of gross negligence as specified above). In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable to the MLP Entity, the Borrower, any Subsidiary Loan Party, or any other Subsidiary, or shall the MLP Entity, the Borrower or any Subsidiary be liable to
any Indemnitee, for any consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 9.05. No
Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of
such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent or any
Lender. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested. 

(c)    This Section 9.05 shall not apply to Taxes. 

Section 9.06    Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, each Lender and any Affiliate of a Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate of a Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary that is not a Foreign Subsidiary, against any and all
obligations of the Loan Parties, now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or such Affiliate of a Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Affiliate of a Lender shall have made
any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although the obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender and each Affiliate of a Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including
other rights of set-off) that such Lender or such Affiliate of a Lender may have. 

Section 9.07    Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

  
 97 

 Section 9.08    Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of
the Agents or any Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the MLP Entity, the
Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. No notice or demand on the MLP Entity, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party in any case shall entitle such Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

(b)    Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or
modified except (x) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (y) in
the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Loan Party party thereto and the Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Administrative Agent) and consented to by the
Required Lenders; provided, that no such agreement shall 
 (i)    decrease or forgive the
principal amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, that any amendment to the financial covenant definitions
in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (i) and provided, further, that, any waiver of all or a portion of any post-default increase in interest rates shall be
effective upon the consent of the Required Lenders, 
 (ii)    increase or extend the Loans of any Lender
or decrease the fees payable to any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default shall not constitute an increase in or
extension of the Loans of any Lender), 
 (iii)    extend any date on which payment of the principal
amount of any Loan or interest on any Loan or any Fees or any other payment hereunder is due, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, 

(iv)    change the order of application of any amounts from the application thereof set forth in the
applicable provisions of Section 2.08(b), Section 2.08(c) or Section 9.21 or change any provision hereof that establishes the pro rata treatment 

  
 98 

 
among the Lenders in a manner that would by such change alter the pro rata sharing or other pro rata treatment of the Lenders, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely
affected thereby, 
 (v)    amend or modify the provisions of this Section 9.08 or any requirement
of Article IV or the definition of the terms “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant
any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender, and 
 (vi)    release all or
substantially all the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees of the MLP Entity and the Subsidiary Loan Parties without the prior written consent of each Lender (except, in the case of any Subsidiary Loan Party,
to the extent of a release in connection with a transaction expressly permitted in Sections 6.02 or 6.05); 
 provided, further, that no
such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of such Administrative Agent or Collateral
Agent, as applicable. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 9.08 and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall bind any assignee of such Lender. 

(c)    With the consent of each Loan Party, as applicable, Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may (in their
respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection,
expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law. 

(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Loan Document may be amended, modified, supplemented or waived with the written
consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender (i) in accordance with Sections 6.10, 6.11 and 6.12 or (ii) if such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver is executed and
delivered in order to cure an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in such Loan Document; provided, that in no event will the Administrative Agent be required to substitute its judgment for the judgment of the Lenders or the Required
Lenders, and the Administrative Agent may in all circumstances seek the approval of the Required Lenders, the affected Lenders or all Lenders in connection with any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver. 

Section 9.09    Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the
applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or
otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that 

  
 99 

 
may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges payable to such
Lender, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate, provided, that such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender on subsequent payment dates to the extent not exceeding the legal limitation. 

Section 9.10    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the agreements regarding certain Fees
referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the parties or their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded
by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 9.11    Waiver of Jury
Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS
SECTION 9.11. 
 Section 9.12    Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions. 
 Section 9.13    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission
or an electronic transmission of a PDF copy thereof shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original. Any such delivery shall be followed promptly by delivery of the manually signed original.

 Section 9.15    Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
(a) Each of the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting
in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. The Borrower further irrevocably
consents to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties thereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at the address specified for the Loan Parties in
Section 9.01. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in
this Agreement (other than Section 8.09) shall affect any right that any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against the Borrower or any Loan Party or their
properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (b)    Each of the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court sitting in New York County. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 Section 9.16    Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders
and each of the Agents agrees that it shall maintain in confidence any information relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties or such
Subsidiary or Affiliate (other than information that (x) has become generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by such party in breach of this Agreement, (y) has been independently developed by such Lender or
such Agent without violating this Section 9.16 or (z) was available to such Lender or such Agent from a third party having, to such Person’s actual knowledge, no obligations of confidentiality to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or any such Affiliate) and shall not reveal the same other than to its directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents and advisors with a need to know or to any Person that approves or administers the Loans on behalf of such Lender
(so long as each such Person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), except: (i) to the extent necessary to comply with law or any legal process or the regulatory (including
self-regulatory) or supervisory requirements of any Governmental Authority (including bank examiners), the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or of any securities exchange on which securities of the disclosing party or any Affiliate of
the disclosing party are listed or traded, (ii) as part of reporting or review procedures to Governmental Authorities (including bank examiners) or the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, (iii) to its parent companies,
Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (so long as each such Person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in

  
 101 

 
accordance with this Section 9.16), (iv) to any Agent, any other Lender or any other party of any Loan Document and the Affiliates of each, (v) in connection with the exercise of
any remedies under any Loan Document or in order to enforce its rights under any Loan Document in a legal proceeding, (vi) to any prospective assignee of, or prospective Participant in, any of its rights under this Agreement (so long as such
Person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16 or on terms at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Section 9.16), (vii) to any direct or indirect contractual
counterparty in Swap Agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as each such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.16 or on terms at least as restrictive as those
set forth in Section 9.16 and each such professional advisor shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), (viii) with the consent of the Borrower and (ix) on a confidential basis
to any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or this Agreement. If a Lender or an Agent is requested or required to disclose any such information (other than to its bank examiners and similar regulators, or to
internal or external auditors) pursuant to or as required by law or legal process or subpoena, then, to the extent reasonably practicable, it shall give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower so that the Borrower may seek an appropriate protective
order and such Lender or Agent will cooperate to the extent reasonably possible and legally permissible with the Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary or Affiliate) in seeking such protective order. 

Section 9.17    Communications. (a) Delivery. 

(i)    Each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will use all reasonable efforts to provide to the
Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial
statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (A) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to 5:00 p.m., New
York City time on the scheduled date therefor, (B) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or (C) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or
any extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications collectively, the “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at the address referenced in Section 9.01(a)(ii). Nothing in this Section 9.17 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, the Lenders or any Loan Party to give any notice or other
communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(ii)    Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the
Communications have been posted to the Platform (as defined below) shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (A) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing
(including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be
sent to such e-mail address. 

  
 102 

 (b)    Posting. Each Loan Party further agrees that the
Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Borrower hereby acknowledges that
(i) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on the
Platform and (ii) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its
Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially
reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall
mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat
such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its Affiliates or their respective securities for
purposes of United States federal and state securities laws; (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and
(z) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.”
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC” to the extent the Borrower determines that such Borrower Materials contain material
non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its Affiliates or their respective securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws. 

(c)    Platform. The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties
(as defined below) do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or
statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any
Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of its or their Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents advisors or
representatives (collectively, “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Loan Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or
consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s transmission of communications through the internet, except to
the extent the liability of any Agent Party is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent Party’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. 

  
 103 

 Section 9.18    Release of Liens and Guarantees. (a) In the
event that (i) the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party conveys, sells, leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of its assets (including the Equity Interests of any of its Subsidiaries) to a Person that is not
(and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by the Loan Documents (other than any sale or conveyance of any assets to Eddy County in connection with the IRB Transactions), (ii) any Restricted Subsidiary becomes an
Unrestricted Subsidiary (other than any Included Entity, any Ohio Joint Venture or, from and after the Opt-In Time, the Double E Joint Venture) or (iii) any Subsidiary ceases to be a Revolver Loan Party,
then, in any of such cases, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably
requested by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense to release any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such Equity Interests, Subsidiary Loan Party or assets that are the subject of such disposition, release any
Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of Equity Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary that becomes an Unrestricted Subsidiary (other than any Included Entity, any Ohio Joint Venture or, from and after the
Opt-In Time, the Double E Joint Venture), and release any Guarantees of the Obligations and release any Liens granted to secure the Obligations, in each case by a Person that ceases to be a Subsidiary of the
Borrower or that ceases to be a Subsidiary Loan Party as a result of a transaction described above. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such Equity Interests or assets shall no longer be deemed to
be made once such Equity Interests or assets are so conveyed, sold, leased, assigned, transferred or disposed of. Any sale or conveyance of any assets to Eddy County in connection with the IRB Transactions shall be subject to all Liens thereon
created under the Loan Documents, and such Liens created under the Loan Documents shall continue in effect after such sale or conveyance. 

(b)    When all the Obligations are paid in full in cash (other than contingent indemnification obligations), the
Collateral Documents, the Guarantees made therein, the Security Interest (as defined therein) and all other security interests granted thereby shall terminate, and each Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations thereunder and
the security interests in the Collateral granted by any Loan Party shall automatically be released. At such time, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (at the written direction of the Administrative Agent) agree to take such actions as
are reasonably requested by the Borrower at the Borrower’s expense to evidence and effectuate such termination and release of the Guarantees, Liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents. 

(c)    Authorizations for each release and termination specified in this Section 9.18 shall be required only to the
extent required by Section 8.10. 
 Section 9.19    Judgment. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any
court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with
normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first mentioned currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s office on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. 

Section 9.20    No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for
purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the MLP Entity, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower. 

  
 104 

 
The Borrower hereby agrees that subject to applicable law, nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other
implied duty between the Lenders and the Loan Parties, their equity holders or their Affiliates. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents are
arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction none of
the Lenders is acting as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, equity holders, creditors or any other person, (iii) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender or any of its Affiliates has advised or is currently advising such Loan Party on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the
obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, (iv) the Borrower and each other Loan Party has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate and (v) the Lenders may be engaged in a broad
range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates and no Lender has an obligation to disclose any such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees
that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. 

Section 9.21    Application of Funds. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, after the exercise of remedies provided
for in Section 7.01 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable), any amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Collateral Document and any other amounts received by the
Administrative Agent on account of the Loan Document Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order: 

(a)    First, to payment of that portion of the Loan Document Obligations constituting Fees, indemnities, expenses
and other amounts (other than principal and interest but including Fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) payable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in their respective
capacities as such; 
 (b)    Second, to payment of that portion of the Loan Document Obligations constituting
Fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including Fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the
respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them; 
 (c)    Third, to payment of that
portion of the Loan Document Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and other Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause
Third payable to them; and 
 (d)    Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Loan Document Obligations
have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. 
 Section 9.22    Intended Third
Party Beneficiaries. The Collateral Agent is an intended third party beneficiary of Article VIII and Section 9.05 hereof.

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SUMMIT MIDSTREAM HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Borrower”), HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to [NAME OF LENDER] (the “Lender”) or its registered assigns for the account of its applicable lending office the principal amount of the Loans owing to the Lender by the Borrower
pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of May 28, 2020, among the Borrower, the LENDERS party thereto from
time to time and SMP TopCo, LLC, as administrative agent (in such capacity, together with any successor administrative agent, the “Administrative Agent”). Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein with the same meanings.

 The Borrower promises to pay to the Lender or its registered assigns interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans represented by
this Promissory Note and advanced to the Borrower from the date of such Loan until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and payable at such times, as are specified in the Credit Agreement. 

Both principal and interest are payable in U.S. dollars to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders as set forth in the Credit
Agreement. The Loans represented by this Promissory Note advanced to the Borrower and the maturity thereof, and all payments made on account of principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Lender and, prior to any transfer hereof, endorsed on the
grid attached hereto, which is part of this promissory note (this “Promissory Note”); provided, however, that the failure of the Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the Obligations of
the Borrower under this Promissory Note. 
 This Promissory Note is one of the promissory notes referred to in Section 2.02(e) of the
Credit Agreement and is entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement, among other things, (i) provides for the making of Loans by the Lenders to or for the benefit of the Borrower, the indebtedness of the Borrower
resulting from the Loans being, on request of a Lender, evidenced by such promissory notes, and (ii) contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain stated events and also for prepayments on account of
principal hereof prior to the maturity hereof upon the terms and conditions therein specified. The obligations of the Borrower under this Promissory Note and the other Loan Documents, and the obligations of the other Loan Parties under the Loan
Documents, are secured by the Collateral as provided in the Loan Documents. 
 The Borrower, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby

This Promissory Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York and is entered into as of the
date first written above.

definition of 

  
 5 

 
“Secured Obligation”, each Guarantor further agrees that the Secured Obligations may be extended, modified, substituted, amended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice
to or further assent from such Guarantor (except in cases where such Guarantor is a party to the agreement giving rise to the Secured Obligation being extended, modified, substituted, amended or renewed and such notice or assent is required by such
agreement), and each Guarantor agrees that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any extension, modification, substitution, amendment or renewal of any Secured Obligation. Each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably
waives notice of nonperformance, acceleration, presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Obligor of any of the Secured Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of or reliance on its guarantee and notice
of protest for nonpayment. 
 Section 2.02    Guarantee of Payment. Each Guarantor hereby further agrees
that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any
resort be had by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to any other Obligor, to any security held for the payment of the Secured Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Collateral Agent or any
other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower or any other Person. Each Guarantor agrees all payments will be made strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

Section 2.03    No Limitations, etc. (a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations
hereunder as expressly provided for in Section 7.14, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender,
alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Secured Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: 

(i)    the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to assert
any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise against the Borrower, any other Obligor or any other guarantor or surety; 

(ii)    the creation of any Secured Obligation and any rescission, waiver, amendment, restatement,
supplement or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to (x) any of the foregoing that extends the maturity of, or increases the amount of, any
Secured Obligations and (y) any other Guarantor under this Agreement; 
 (iii)    the failure to
perfect any security interest in, or the exchange, substitution, release or any impairment of, any Collateral or any other collateral securing the Secured Obligations; 

  
 6 

 (iv)    any default, failure or delay, willful or
otherwise, in the performance of the Secured Obligations; 
 (v)    any other act or omission that may or
might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations); 

(vi)    any illegality, lack of validity or enforceability of any Secured Obligation; 

(vii)    any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or any other
Obligor, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Borrower or any other Obligor or the Property of any Obligor or any resulting release or discharge of any Secured Obligation; 

(viii)    any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of any Secured Party’s interests in
and rights under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, including any such Secured Party’s right to receive payment of the Secured Obligations, or any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of any Secured Party’s interests in
and to any of the Collateral; 
 (ix)    the existence of any claim,
set-off or other rights that such Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower or any other Obligor, the Collateral Agent, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated
transactions, provided that nothing herein will prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; or 

(x)    any other circumstance (including without limitation, the expiration of any statute of limitations)
or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Collateral Agent or any other Person that might otherwise constitute a defense to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrower, such Guarantor, any other Obligor or any other
guarantor or surety. 
 Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Collateral Agent to take and hold security, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, for the
payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof, subject to the terms
hereof, upon the written direction of the Administrative Agent and to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Secured Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder.
Each Guarantor acknowledges that its guarantee is continuing in nature and applies to all Secured Obligations, whether existing now or in the future. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the
financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents, and that the waivers set forth in this Article 2 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 

  
 7 

 (b)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor
waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Obligor or the unenforceability of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or
any other Obligor, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations. The Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may, upon the written direction of the Administrative Agent, foreclose on any security
held by one or more of the Secured Parties by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Secured Obligations, make any other accommodation with
the Borrower or any other Obligor or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or any other Obligor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Secured
Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law,
to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Obligor, as the case may be, or any security. 

Section 2.04    Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be
effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Borrower, any other Obligor or otherwise. 
 Section 2.05    Agreement to Pay;
Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any
other Obligor to pay any Secured Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the
Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Secured Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor
against the Borrower or any other Obligor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article 6 hereof. 

Section 2.06    Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed
of the financial condition and assets of the Borrower and each other Obligor, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Secured Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and
incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties have had, have now, or will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks. 

Section 2.07    Reliance; Demands. The Secured Obligations, and each of them, shall conclusively be
deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article 2. All dealings 

  
 8 

 
between the Borrower and any of the other Obligors, on the one hand, and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in
reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article 2. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, any Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar
demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Obligor or any other Person or against any collateral or other Guarantee for the Secured Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto;
and any failure by any Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any other Obligor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral or other Guarantee or
to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower or any other Obligor or any other Person or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and
remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of any Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 

Section 2.08    Maximum Liability. Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor in its capacity as such hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws
relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 6.02) without rendering such a guaranty voidable under applicable law (such maximum liability with respect to any Guarantor
determined hereunder being such Guarantor’s “Maximum Guaranty Amount”). Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, the determination of a Maximum Guaranty Amount with respect to any one or more Guarantors
shall not in any manner reduce or otherwise affect obligations (including the Obligations and the Secured Obligations) of any other Obligor under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

Section 2.09    Payments Free and Clear of Taxes, etc. Any and all payments made by any Guarantor under
or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in accordance with Section 2.07 of the Credit Agreement. 

ARTICLE 3. 
 PLEDGE AGREEMENT 

Section 3.01    Pledge. As security for the indefeasible payment or performance, as the case may be, in full
of the Secured Obligations, each Pledgor hereby pledges, hypothecates, assigns, charges, mortgages, delivers, and transfers to the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby
grants to the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all of such Pledgor’s right, title and interest in, to and under and whether direct or indirect,
whether legal, beneficial, or economic, whether fixed or contingent and whether now or hereafter existing or arising (a)(i) all Equity Interests owned by it and issued by the Borrower, a Subsidiary Loan Party, an Included Entity or an Ohio Joint
Venture as of the Closing Date; (ii) any other Equity Interests owned in the future by such Pledgor and issued by the Borrower, a 

  
 9 

 
Subsidiary Loan Party, an Included Entity, an Ohio Joint Venture or, from and after the Opt-In Time, the Double E Joint Venture; (iii) any
certificates or other instruments representing all such Equity Interests, if any; (iv) all rights in, to and under each limited liability operating agreement, limited liability company agreement, bylaws and each other organizational document of
each Pledged Interests Issuer; and (v) to the extent any Pledged Interest Issuer is a limited liability company or a limited partnership, as a member or partner, as applicable, of such Pledged Interest Issuer (collectively, each subpart of
clause (a), the “Pledged Stock”); provided that (a) Pledged Stock shall include the interests listed on Schedule I; (b) subject to Section 3.07, all payments of principal or interest, Dividends,
Distributions, cash, instruments and other Property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, in exchange for or upon the conversion of, and all other proceeds received in respect of, the Pledged Stock;
(c) all rights and privileges of any nature (including, without limitation, the right to vote, take actions or consent to actions in accordance with any limited liability operating agreement, limited liability company agreement, bylaws or other
organizational document of a Pledged Interests Issuer, and to participate in the operation of any Pledged Interests Issuer) of such Pledgor with respect to the Pledged Stock; (d) all General Intangibles relating to or arising out of any of the
foregoing; and (e) all proceeds of any of the foregoing (the items referred to in clauses (a) through (e) above being collectively referred to as the “Pledged Collateral”). 

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Pledged Collateral, together with all right, title, interest, powers, privileges and preferences pertaining or
incidental thereto, unto the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, forever; subject, however, to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth. The security interest
granted in the Pledged Collateral is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Pledgor with respect to or arising out of the
Pledged Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) this Section 3.01 shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in (but without limitation of the grant of security interest in the Article 9
Collateral pursuant to Section 4.01), and “Pledged Collateral” shall not include, any Excluded Assets or any other asset or property to the extent such grant of a security interest in such asset or property shall contravene the
definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement or Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement and (b) other than as required pursuant to
Section 3.02(d) hereof, no Grantor shall be required to take any action with respect to the perfection of security interests in security accounts (including entering into control agreements). For the avoidance of doubt, at all times,
(i) all Equity Interests issued by the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subject to a pledge pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) all Equity Interests issued by an Included Entity and held by a Pledgor shall be subject to a
pledge pursuant to this Agreement. 
 Section 3.02    Delivery of the Pledged Collateral. (a) Each
Pledgor agrees promptly to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, any and all Pledged
Certificated Securities evidencing Pledged Stock. 
 (b)    (i) Upon delivery to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver
Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), any Pledged Certificated Securities required to be delivered pursuant to the foregoing paragraph (a) of this Section 3.02 shall be accompanied

  
 10 

 
by stock powers, duly executed in blank or other instruments of transfer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a
gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, any such instrument of transfer that is reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent) and
by such other instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, the
Collateral Agent may only request such instruments and documents that are also reasonably requested by the Revolver Collateral Agent) and (ii) upon execution of this Agreement, all other property comprising part of the Pledged Collateral shall
be accompanied to the extent necessary to perfect the security interest in or allow realization on the Pledged Collateral by proper instruments of assignment duly executed by the applicable Pledgor and such other instruments or documents (including
issuer acknowledgments in respect of uncertificated securities) as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the
Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may only request such instruments and documents that are also reasonably requested by the Revolver Collateral Agent). Each delivery of Pledged Certificated Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule
describing the securities, and with respect to such Pledged Collateral existing on the Closing Date, such schedule is attached hereto as Schedule I and made a part hereof; provided that failure to include any such schedule shall not
affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged Certificated Securities. Each schedule describing the securities delivered in connection with a delivery of Pledged Certificated Securities shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered. 

(c)    With respect to any Pledged Stock that is an “uncertificated security” (as defined in the New York UCC),
each Pledgor agrees that within thirty days after (x) any Pledgor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.15; (y) any Pledgor first acquiring Pledged Stock that is an “uncertificated security” or (z) the date that any
Pledged Stock already pledged hereunder becomes an “uncertificated security” (as defined in the New York UCC), to cause the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), for the ratable
benefit of the Secured Parties, to have “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106(c)(2) of the New York UCC) over such uncertificated securities by causing the relevant Pledged Interests
Issuer to enter into an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral
Agent, any such agreement that is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Collateral Agent shall be deemed to also be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent), pursuant to which such Pledged
Interest Issuer agrees to comply with all instructions of the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent, to the extent it is a gratuitous bailee for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) relating to such
uncertificated securities without further consent of the Pledgor. Each delivery of a control agreement with respect to uncertificated securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities, and, with respect to such Pledged
Collateral existing on the Closing Date, such schedule is attached hereto as Schedule I and made a part hereof; provided that failure to include any such schedule shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such uncertificated
securities. Each schedule describing such uncertificated securities that will constitute Pledged Collateral shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered. 

  
 11 

 (d)    Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (c) above, with respect
to any Pledged Stock in which the Pledgor holds its interest in the form of a security entitlement, each Pledgor agrees that within thirty days after (x) any Pledgor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.15, (y) any Pledgor first
acquiring Pledged Stock held in the form of a security entitlement or (z) the date that any Pledged Stock becomes held by a Pledgor in the form of a security entitlement, to cause the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as
gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, to have “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106(d)(2) of the New York UCC) over such
security entitlement by causing the applicable securities intermediary to enter into an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a
gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, any such agreement that is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Collateral Agent shall be deemed to also be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent), pursuant to which the securities intermediary agrees to comply with all entitlement orders of the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent, to the extent it is a gratuitous bailee for the Collateral
Agent pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) relating to such security entitlement without further consent of the Pledgor. Each delivery of a control agreement with respect to security entitlements shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the
securities underlying such security entitlements, and, with respect to such Pledged Collateral existing on the Closing Date, such schedule is attached hereto as Schedule I and made a part hereof; provided that failure to attach any
such schedule shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such uncertificated securities. Each schedule describing such uncertificated securities that will constitute Pledged Collateral shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered. 

(e)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not issue instructions or entitlement
orders (in each case as such term is used in the New York UCC) to a bank, securities intermediary or Pledged Interests Issuer or other party to any control agreement (including any securities account control agreement or agreement of a Pledged
Interests Issuer of the type contemplated by Sections 3.02(b), (c) and (d)) entered into pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

Section 3.03    Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Pledgors, jointly and severally,
represent, warrant and covenant to and with the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, that: 

(a)    Schedule I correctly and completely sets forth the name and jurisdiction of each Pledged Interests Issuer,
and the ownership interest (including percentage owned and number of shares or units) of each Pledgor in, the Pledged Stock; 

(b)    each Pledgor has good and valid title to and is the legal and beneficial owner of the Pledged Collateral and has
full power and authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Lien in such Pledged Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any
other Person other than any consent or approval that has been obtained; 

  
 12 

 (c)    the Pledged Stock has been duly and validly authorized and issued
by Pledged Interests Issuers and is fully paid and nonassessable; 
 (d)    except for the security interests granted
hereunder, each Pledgor (i) is and, subject to any transfers made in compliance with the Credit Agreement, will continue to be the direct owner, beneficially and of record, of the Pledged Collateral indicated on Schedule I as owned by
such Pledgor, (ii) holds the same free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens described by clauses (b), (d), (e), (n), (u), (bb), (ff) and (hh) of Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, (iii) will make no assignment, pledge,
hypothecation or transfer of, or create or permit to exist any security interest in or other Lien on, the Pledged Collateral, other than Liens described by clauses (b), (d), (e), (u), (u), (bb), (ff) and (hh) of Section 6.02 of the Credit
Agreement and (iv) subject to the rights of such Pledgor under the Loan Documents to dispose of Pledged Collateral, will, at its own expense, take any and all actions necessary to defend title to the Pledged Collateral against all Persons and
to defend the security interest of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Pledged Collateral against any Lien and the priority thereof against any Lien (other than Liens described by clauses (b), (d), (e), (n),
(u), (bb), (ff) and (hh) of Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement); 
 (e)    except for restrictions and
limitations imposed by the Loan Documents or otherwise permitted to exist pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and to the extent applicable, laws of any applicable Foreign Jurisdiction with respect to Pledged Collateral pledged after the
Closing Date and securities laws generally, (i) the Pledged Collateral (other than Pledged Collateral consisting of Equity Interests in any Ohio Joint Venture and the Double E Joint Venture) is and will continue to be freely transferable and
assignable and (ii) none of the Pledged Collateral (other than Pledged Collateral consisting of Equity Interests in any Ohio Joint Venture and the Double E Joint Venture) is or will be subject to any option, right of first refusal, shareholders
agreement, charter or by-law provisions or contractual restriction of any nature that might prohibit, impair, delay or otherwise affect the pledge of such Pledged Collateral hereunder, the sale or disposition
thereof pursuant hereto or the exercise by the Collateral Agent of rights and remedies hereunder; 
 (f)    each Pledgor
has the power and authority to pledge the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder in the manner hereby done or contemplated; 

(g)    except, to the extent applicable, for consents or approvals required by the laws of any applicable Foreign
Jurisdiction, no consent or approval of any Governmental Authority, any securities exchange or any other Person was or is necessary for the validity of the pledge effected hereby (other than such as have been obtained and are in full force and
effect); 
 (h)    by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Pledgors of this Agreement, when any Pledged
Certificated Securities are delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in accordance with this Agreement, and, with
respect to any other Pledged Collateral, upon the earlier of (i) the filing of one or more UCC financing statements with the 

  
 13 

 
Secretary of State (or equivalent office) of the jurisdiction of incorporation, organization or formation of each Pledgor or (ii) the taking of the actions to provide the Collateral Agent
(or Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable) with control as contemplated by Sections 3.02(b), 3.02(c) and 3.02(d), the Collateral Agent will obtain, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties, a legal, valid and perfected first priority lien upon and security interest in such Pledged Certificated Securities and such other Pledged Collateral as security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations under the New York
UCC, subject to Liens described by clauses (b), (d), (e), (n), (u), (bb), (ff) and (hh) of Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement; 

(i)    the pledge effected hereby is effective to vest in the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties, the rights of the Pledgors in the Pledged Collateral as set forth herein, subject, to the extent applicable, to consents or approvals required by laws of any applicable Foreign Jurisdiction with respect to Pledged Collateral pledged after
the Closing Date; 
 (j)    as of the date hereof, each interest in any limited liability company (other than Grand
River Gathering, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company or limited partnership) that is Pledged Collateral (i) is not dealt in or traded on securities exchanges or in securities markets, (ii) is not an “investment company
security” (as defined in Section 8-103(b) of the New York UCC) and (iii) does not provide, in the related limited liability company, partnership or operating agreement, certificates, if any,
representing such Pledged Collateral or otherwise, that it is a security governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction; and 

(k)    each Pledgor agrees that at any time, and from time to time, at the expense of the Borrower, such Pledgor will
promptly execute and deliver all further instruments, and take all further action, that may be necessary, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request (but only to the extent such request is no more burdensome as any such request made by the
Revolver Collateral Agent), in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable, subject to the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent to exercise and
enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and each Pledgor agrees that, upon the acquisition (or on any date that a Person directly owned by such Pledgor meets the description of a Subsidiary Loan Party or an
Included Entity) after the date hereof by such Pledgor of any Pledged Collateral, with respect to which the security interest granted hereunder is not perfected automatically upon such acquisition, to take such actions with respect to such Pledged

Pledged Collateral in support of the Secured Obligations and (iv) has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby to which it is or will
be a party. 
 (b)    Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by the Parent of this Agreement

result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Parent, other than pursuant to this Agreement. 

(c)    Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Parent and constitutes, and each
other Loan Document to be executed and delivered by the Parent when executed and delivered by the Parent will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Parent enforceable against the Parent in accordance with its terms, subject to

Gathering Agreement, and will not acquire or own any Equity Interests

Agreement. 
 Section 3.05    Status as “Securities” of Limited Liability
Company and Limited Partnership Interests under Article 8. The Parent and each other Obligor hereby covenants and agrees that, without the prior express written consent of the Collateral Agent (given at the written direction of the
Administrative Agent), it will not agree to any election to treat any of its limited partnership interests or limited liability company interests (other than interests in the Parent) or any limited partnership interests or limited liability company
interest of any Pledged Interests Issuer as securities governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction unless it promptly notifies the Collateral Agent of such election and takes such action required to establish the
Collateral Agent’s (or Revolver Collateral Agent’s, as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement) “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) over
such Pledged Collateral as required pursuant to Section 3.02 (it being understood by the parties hereto that, as of the date hereof, the requirements set forth in this Section 3.05 have been satisfied with respect to the limited liability
company interests in Grand River Gathering, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company). 

Section 3.06    Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to hold the Pledged Certificated Securities in the name of the applicable Pledgor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in
favor of the Collateral Agent (or in favor of the Revolver Collateral Agent, to the extent it is a gratuitous bailee for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
in its own name or in the name of its nominee. Each Pledgor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any notices or other communications received by it with respect to Pledged Certificated Securities registered in the name of such
Pledgor. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates representing Pledged Certificated Securities for
certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Person that is not a party to this Agreement to
comply with a request by the Collateral Agent (it being agreed that the Collateral Agent will not make any such request unless the Revolver Collateral Agent has also made such request), pursuant to this Section 3.06, to exchange certificates
representing Pledged Certificated Securities of such Person for certificates of smaller or larger denominations. 

Section 3.07    Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest, etc. (a) Unless and until an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: 
 (i)    Each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise
any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
provided that such rights and powers shall not be exercised in any manner that could materially and adversely affect the rights inuring to a holder of any Pledged Collateral, the rights and remedies, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, of
any 

  
 16 

 
of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or the ability, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, of the Secured
Parties to exercise the same. 
 (ii)    The Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each
Pledgor, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Pledgor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Pledgor to exercise the voting and/or consensual
rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 3.07(a)(i). 
 (iii)    Each
Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all Dividends, interest, principal and other Distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent and only to the extent that such Dividends, interest,
principal and other Distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable laws; provided that any noncash Dividends,
interest, principal or other Distributions that would constitute Pledged Certificated Securities, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Certificated
Securities or received in exchange for Pledged Certificated Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or
otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Pledgor, shall not be commingled by such Pledgor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust
for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), for the
ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent, to the extent it is a gratuitous bailee for the Collateral Agent
pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement)). 
 (b)    Automatically (without any request or notice being delivered by the
Collateral Agent) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 7.01(b), (c), (f), (h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement, and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other
Event of Default, after written notice delivered in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower (given at the written direction of the Administrative Agent), all rights of any Pledgor to Dividends, interest,
principal or other Distributions that such Pledgor is authorized to receive pursuant to Section 3.07(a)(iii) shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, for the ratable benefit of the
Secured Parties, in the Collateral Agent, which shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such Dividends, interest, principal or other Distributions. Automatically (without
any request or notice being delivered by the Collateral Agent) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 7.01(b), (c), (f), (h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement, and upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, after written notice in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower (given at the written direction of the Administrative Agent), all
Dividends, interest, principal or other 

  
 17 

 
Distributions received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 3.07 shall not be commingled by such Pledgor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held
separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous
bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent, to the extent it is a
gratuitous bailee for the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement)); provided, that (i) the failure of the Collateral Agent to give the notice referred to in this sentence shall have no effect on the rights of the
Collateral Agent hereunder, and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to deliver any such notice if such delivery would be prohibited by applicable law. Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral
Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.07(b) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.02. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent a certificate to that effect, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each Pledgor (without interest)
all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Pledgor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of Section 3.07(a)(iii) and that remain in such account, as set forth in reasonable detail in such
certificate. 
 (c)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice by the
Collateral Agent (given at the written direction of the Administrative Agent) to the relevant Pledgors of the Collateral Agent’s intention to exercise its rights hereunder, all rights of any Pledgor to exercise the voting and/or consensual
rights and powers and all other incidental rights of ownership with respect to any Pledged Stock or other Property constituting Pledged Collateral it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 3.07(a)(i), and the obligations of the Collateral
Agent under Section 3.07(a)(ii), shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, which shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, have the sole and
exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers (in each case acting at the written direction of the Administrative Agent); provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the
Collateral Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Pledgors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and
the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent a certificate to that effect, each Grantor shall have the right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that such Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the
terms of Section 3.07(a)(i). 
 EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY GRANTS THE COLLATERAL AGENT AN IRREVOCABLE PROXY, EXERCISABLE UPON THE OCCURRENCE
AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, TO VOTE THE PLEDGED STOCK AND SUCH OTHER PLEDGED COLLATERAL, WITH SUCH PROXY TO REMAIN VALID, SO LONG AS SUCH EVENT OF DEFAULT IS CONTINUING AND HAS NOT BEEN CURED OR WAIVED, UNTIL THE INDEFEASIBLE
PAYMENT IN FULL IN CASH OF ALL SECURED OBLIGATIONS. 
 Each Pledgor agrees promptly to deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional
proxies and other documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request (but only to the extent such request is no more burdensome as any such request made by the Revolver Collateral Agent) to exercise the voting power and other incidental rights
of ownership described above. 

  
 18 

 Section 3.08    Authorization to File UCC Financing
Statements. Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements, continuation statements, amendments, other filings and
recordings, with respect to the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that contain information required, useful, convenient or appropriate to perfect the security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement, describing the
Pledged Collateral as described in this Agreement or as the Collateral Agent may otherwise determine in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of such security interests, including, with respect to the
Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, describing the Pledged Collateral as “all assets” or “all property” or words of similar import. To the extent any Pledgor is also a Grantor, the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion,
file initial financing statements, continuation statements, amendments or other filings and recordings that cover either (i) all Collateral pledged by such Grantor/Pledgor or (ii) the Pledged Collateral separately from the Article 9
Collateral pledged by such Grantor/Pledgor (such that two or more filings, including initial financing statements, would be filed), and, with respect to both clauses (i) and (ii), each of such filings may describe the Collateral described in
such filing as “all assets” or “all property” or words of similar import and each of such filings may be made pursuant to either or both of this Section 3.08 and Section 4.01(b). Notwithstanding any provision set forth
in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to file any initial financing statements or continuation statements, and such responsibility shall be an obligation of the Administrative Agent. 

ARTICLE 4.

(xvii)    all books, correspondence, credit files, invoices, tapes, cords, computer runs, writings and

Section 4.01 shall not constitute a grant of a security interest (but without limitation of the grant of security interest in the Pledged Collateral pursuant to Section 3.01) in, and the term “Article 9 Collateral” shall
not include, any Excluded Assets or any Property to the extent such grant of a security interest in such Property shall violate or be in contravention of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement or
Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement, but only for so long as such remains Property the grant of a security interest in which violates or is in contravention of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit
Agreement or Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement (and at the end of such time a security interest shall be deemed to be granted therein). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Collateral Agent nor
any other Secured Party shall require any Obligor to take any actions related to perfection or “control” of any Article 9 Collateral to the extent it would violate or be in contravention of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee
Requirement” in the Credit Agreement or Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement. 

  
 20 

 (b)    Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent
at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements (including Fixture filings and transmitting utility filings with respect to Fixtures situated on real property (regardless of whether such real
property is owned by a Loan Party or is owned by a Person other than a Loan Party)), continuation statements, amendments, other filings and recordings, with respect to the Article 9 Collateral and any other collateral pledged hereunder or any part
thereof and amendments thereto that contain the information required, useful, convenient or appropriate for the filing of any financing statement, continuation or amendment, or such other information as may be required, useful, convenient or
appropriate under applicable law including (i) whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to such Grantor, (ii) in the case of Fixtures, if required, a sufficient
description of the real property to which such Article 9 Collateral relates and (iii) a description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Collateral Agent may reasonably determine is necessary or advisable to
ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Article 9 Collateral or other Collateral granted under this Agreement, including describing such property as “all assets” or “all property” or words of similar import. Each
Grantor agrees to provide such information to the Collateral Agent promptly upon request (but only to the extent such request is no more burdensome as any such request made by the Revolving Collateral Agent). To the extent any Grantor is also a
Pledgor, the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, file initial financing statements, continuation statements, amendments or other filings and recording that cover either (i) all Collateral pledged by such Grantor/Pledgor or
(ii) the Pledged Collateral separately from the Article 9 Collateral pledged by such Grantor/Pledgor (such that two or more filings, including initial financing statements, would be filed), and, with respect to both clauses (i) and (ii),
each of such filings may describe the Collateral described in such filing as “all assets” or “all property” or words of similar import and each of such filings may be made pursuant to either or both of this paragraph and
Section 3.08. Notwithstanding any provision set forth in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to file any initial financing statements or continuation statements, and such responsibility shall be an obligation of the
Administrative Agent. 
 The Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United
States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country) such documents executed by any Grantor as may be necessary or advisable (in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent and acting at the written direction
of the Administrative Agent, but only to the extent such documents are no more burdensome than those documents executed in connection with the Revolving Credit Agreement) for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting
the Security Interest granted by each Grantor and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Collateral Agent as secured party. 

(c)    Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, as between each Grantor and any Secured Party, (a) such
Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Article 9 Collateral from time to time to which it is a party to the extent set forth therein; (b) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights
hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under any contracts and agreements included in the Article 9 Collateral; and (c) neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or
liability under any such contracts or agreements included in the Article 9 Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor
thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. 

  
 21 

 Section 4.02    Representations and Warranties. The Obligors
(or the relevant subset of Obligors specified explicitly below) jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, as of the Closing Date, that: 

(a)    Each Grantor is the legal and beneficial owner of, and has good and valid title to the Article 9 Collateral with
respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder, except where the failure to have such title could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and has full power and
authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any
other Person other than any consent or approval that has been obtained and is in full force and effect, except to the extent the failure to obtain such consent or approval could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b)    This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Obligor (in its capacity as a Guarantor, Pledgor and/or
Grantor, as applicable) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor in such capacities enforceable against each such Obligor in such capacities in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law) and (iii) implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing. 
 (c)    As of the Closing Date, each
Obligor’s name in which it has executed this Agreement is the exact name as it appears in such Obligor’s organizational documents, as amended, as filed with such Obligor’s jurisdiction of organization. Uniform Commercial Code
financing statements (including Fixture filings and transmitting utility filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations containing a description of the Collateral that have been prepared by the Collateral Agent or
the Administrative Agent based upon the information provided to the Collateral Agent or such other Person for filing in the applicable governmental, municipal or other office (or specified by notice from the Borrower to the Secured Parties after the
Closing Date in the case of filings, recordings or registrations required by Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement), and constitute all the filings, recordings and registrations (other than filings required to be made in the United States Patent
and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office in order to publish notice of or perfect the Security Interest in Article 9 Collateral consisting of United States registrations and applications for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights)
that are necessary to publish notice of and protect the validity of and to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of all Collateral in
which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording,
registration or reregistration is necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of continuation statements or amendments. 

  
 22 

 To the extent that a Grantor has Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property
set forth on Schedule II hereof (as such Schedule is updated from time to time), each such Grantor represents and warrants that a fully executed agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit II hereof (or a short form hereof which
form shall be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent) containing a description of all Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property with respect to United States registrations and applications for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights
has been delivered to the Collateral Agent for recording with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations
thereunder, as applicable, to establish (in the case of registered Copyrights) a valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and to provide notice to third parties of the
security interest created hereby (in the case of registered Patents and Trademarks) in respect of all Article 9 Collateral consisting of such Intellectual Property in which a security interest may be perfected or protected by recording with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary (other than such actions as are necessary to perfect
or protect the Security Interest with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of registrations and applications for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights acquired or developed after the date hereof). 

(d)    The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral
securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations under the New York UCC, (ii) subject to the filings described in Section 4.02(c), a perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be
perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law
in such jurisdictions and (iii) to the extent that a Grantor has Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property set forth on Schedule II hereof (as such Schedule is updated from time to time), a security interest that shall be
perfected in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected upon the receipt and recording of a fully executed agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit II hereto with the United States Copyright Office. The
Security Interest shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral other than, in the case of Article 9 Collateral other than Pledged Collateral, Liens permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement and, in the case of
Pledged Collateral, Liens described by clauses (b), (d), (e), (n), (u), (bb), (ff) and (hh) of Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

(e)    The Article 9 Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, other than Liens expressly permitted
pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, and the Article 9 Collateral consisting of Property of a type described in the definition of “Pledged Collateral” (which Property may be both Article 9 Collateral and Pledged
Collateral under this Agreement) is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, other than Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent and Liens described by clauses (b), (d), (e), (n), (u), (bb), (ff) and (hh) of Section 6.02 of the Credit
Agreement. None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing of (i) any financing statement or analogous document under the Uniform Commercial Code (including the New York UCC) in any applicable jurisdiction or any other applicable laws
covering any Article 9 Collateral, (ii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or 

  
 23 

 
similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or (iii) any assignment in which any Grantor
assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security
agreement or similar instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, with respect to any Lien that is expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

(f)    None of the Grantors holds any Commercial Tort Claim individually in excess of the Threshold Amount except as
indicated on Schedule III hereto, as such schedule may be updated or supplemented from time to time. On or before the Closing Date, possession of all originals of Instruments and Chattel Paper constituting Article 9 Collateral, in each case
in a face amount in excess of the Threshold Amount, if any, has been transferred to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement) to the extent
required by this Article. 
 (g)    All Accounts constituting Article 9 Collateral have been originated by the Grantors
and all Inventory constituting Article 9 Collateral has been acquired by the Grantors in the ordinary course of business. All Equipment and Inventory constituting Article 9 Collateral are in the exclusive control of one or more Grantors (other than
Equipment and Inventory in transit or in the possession of third parties in the ordinary course of business). 

(h)    As to itself and its Intellectual Property constituting Article 9 Collateral, except to the extent the following
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: 
 (i)    The operation of such
Grantor’s business as currently conducted and the use of Intellectual Property by such Grantor in connection therewith do not infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate the intellectual property rights of any third party. 

(ii)    Such Grantor owns or has the right to use the Intellectual Property owned, held or used by it or
claimed to be owned or held by it. 
 (iii)    The Intellectual Property set forth on Schedule II
hereto includes all of the patents, patent applications, domain names, trademark registrations and applications and copyright registrations owned by such Grantor. 

(iv)    The Intellectual Property constituting Article 9 Collateral has not been abandoned and has not been
adjudged invalid or unenforceable in whole or part. 
 Section 4.03    Covenants. (a) Each Grantor
agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent in writing of any change (i) in its legal name, (ii) in its identity or type of organization or corporate structure, (iii) in its Federal Taxpayer
Identification Number or organizational identification number, (iv) the location of its chief executive office or the location where it maintains its records, or (v) in its jurisdiction of organization. Each Grantor agrees promptly to
provide the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent with certified constitutional documents reflecting any of the changes described in the immediately preceding sentence. Each Grantor agrees not to effect or permit any change referred

  
 24 

 
to in the first sentence of this paragraph (a) unless all filings have been made under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise that are required in order for the Collateral Agent to
continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected first priority security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties. 

(b)    Subject to the rights of such Grantor under the Loan Documents to dispose of Collateral, each Grantor shall, at its
own expense, take any and all actions necessary to defend title to the Article 9 Collateral against all Persons (other than those holding Liens permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement with respect to such Liens) and to defend the
Security Interest of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Article 9 Collateral against any Lien and the priority thereof against any Lien (other than Liens permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit
Agreement in the case of Article 9 Collateral that is not Pledged Collateral and other than Liens described by clauses (b), (d), (e), (n), (u), (bb), (ff) and (hh) of Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement in the case of Pledged Collateral). 

(c)    Each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such
further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request (but only to the extent such request is no more burdensome as any such request made by the Revolver Collateral Agent) to
preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security
Interest and the filing of any financing statements (including Fixture filings and transmitting utility filing) or other documents in connection herewith or therewith. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Article 9 Collateral
that is in excess of the Threshold Amount shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note or other instrument, such note or instrument shall be promptly pledged and delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as
gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement), for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, duly endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a
gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, any such endorsement that is reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent). 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, with
prompt notice thereof to the Grantors, to supplement this Agreement by supplementing Schedule II or adding additional schedules hereto to specifically identify any asset or item that may constitute a registration or application for any
Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks; provided that any Grantor shall have the right, exercisable within thirty days after it has been notified by the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such Article 9
Collateral, to advise the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in writing of any inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by such Grantor hereunder with respect to such Article 9 Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that it will use
its commercially reasonable efforts to take such action as shall be necessary in order that all representations and warranties hereunder shall be true and correct with respect to such Article 9 Collateral within thirty days after the date it has
been notified by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such Article 9 Collateral. 

  
 25 

 (d)    [Reserved.] 

(e)    At its option, the Collateral Agent, acting at the written direction of the Administrative Agent, may discharge
past due Taxes, Liens, or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any Article 9 Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Article 9
Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement; and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent on demand for any payment or any reasonable expense incurred
by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided, that such Grantor shall not be obligated to reimburse Collateral Agent with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property which any Grantor
has failed to maintain or pursue, or otherwise has allowed to lapse, terminate or put in the public domain, in accordance with Section 4.05(h) and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 4.03(e) shall be interpreted
as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party (i) to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to Taxes, Liens or other encumbrances
or (ii) to maintain any of the Article 9 Collateral as set forth herein. 
 (f)    Each Grantor (rather than the
Collateral Agent or any Secured Party) shall remain liable for the observance and performance of all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to or constituting Article 9
Collateral and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance, except to the extent that such liability is determined
by a final non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or such Secured Party. 

(g)    None of the Grantors shall make or permit to be made an assignment, pledge or hypothecation of the Article 9
Collateral or shall grant any other Lien in respect of the Article 9 Collateral, except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors shall make or permit to be made any transfer of the Article 9 Collateral and each Grantor
shall remain at all times in control of the Article 9 Collateral owned by it (other than Equipment and Inventory in transit or in the possession of third parties in the ordinary course of business), except as permitted by the Credit Agreement. 

(h)    None of the Grantors will, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, grant any extension of the
time of payment of any Accounts included in the Article 9 Collateral, compromise, compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly, any Person liable for the payment thereof or allow any credit or discount
whatsoever thereon, other than extensions, credits, discounts, compromises or settlements granted or made in the ordinary course of business and consistent with prudent business practices or as otherwise permitted by the Credit Agreement. 

(i)    Without limiting Section 7.06, each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent
(and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact for the purpose, during the
continuance of an Event of Default, of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral 

  
 26 

 
under policies of insurance covering the Article 9 Collateral, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of
insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto, in each case subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance
required by the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or part relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Event of Default, at the written direction
of the Administrative Agent, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the Collateral Agent in
connection with this Section 4.03(i), including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the Grantors to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Secured
Obligations secured hereby. 
 Section 4.04    Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment,
perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Article 9 Collateral, each Grantor agrees, in each case at such
Grantor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral: 

(a)    Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments or
Tangible Chattel Paper evidencing an amount in excess of the Threshold Amount, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor
Agreement), accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a gratuitous bailee
under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may only request such instruments that are also requested by the Revolver Collateral Agent). 

(b)    Cash Accounts. No Grantor shall grant control of any deposit account to any Person other than the Revolver
Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent, the SMLP Holdings Collateral Agent and the bank with which the deposit account is maintained. 

(c)    Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article 3, if any Grantor shall at any time
hold or acquire any certificated security, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the
Intercreditor Agreement), accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably specify (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a
gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may only request such instruments that are also requested by the Revolver Collateral Agent). If any security now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor
that is part of the Article 9 Collateral is uncertificated and is issued to such Grantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, then such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent in writing upon the
occurrence of such issuance, and grant control over such uncertificated security as required by Article 3. 

  
 27 

 (d)    Letter of Credit Rights. If any Grantor is at any time a
beneficiary under letters of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Grantor, other than those that together collectively have a face amount of less than the Threshold Amount, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the
Administrative Agent thereof and, at the request and option of the Collateral Agent (it being agreed that for so long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, the Collateral
Agent may only make such request to the extent the Revolver Collateral Agent has requested the same), such Grantor shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (it being agreed that for so
long as the Revolver Collateral Agent is a gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement for the Collateral Agent, any such agreement that is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent), use commercially reasonable efforts to either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent, for
the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement) of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent, for the
ratable benefit of the Secured Parties (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement) to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the
proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to be paid to the applicable Grantor unless an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing. 

(e)    Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an
amount reasonably estimated to exceed the Threshold Amount, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor, including a summary description of such claim, and grant to
the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent. Schedule III hereto shall be automatically supplemented to reflect the information set forth in any such written notice. 

Section 4.05    Covenants Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral. Except to the extent
not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: 
 (a)    Each Grantor agrees that it will not knowingly do
any act or omit to do any act (and will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to prevent its licensees from doing any act or omitting to do any act) whereby any Patent that is material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business may
become prematurely invalidated or dedicated to the public, and agrees that it shall take commercially reasonable steps with respect to any material products covered by any such Patent as reasonably necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve
its rights under applicable patent laws. 
 (b)    Each Grantor will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts
to cause its licensees or its sublicensees to, for each material Trademark reasonably necessary to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business, (i) maintain such Trademark in full force free from any adjudication of abandonment or
invalidity for non-use, (ii) maintain the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark consistent with the quality of such products and services as of the date hereof, (iii) display
such Trademark with notice of federal or foreign registration or claim of trademark or service mark as required under applicable law and (iv) not knowingly use or knowingly permit its licensees’ use of such Trademark in violation of any
third-party rights. 

  
 28 

 (c)    Each Grantor will, and will use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause its licensees or its sublicensees to, for each work covered by a material Copyright reasonably necessary to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business that it publishes, displays and distributes, use copyright notice as
required under applicable copyright laws. 
 (d)    Each Grantor shall notify the Collateral Agent and the
Administrative Agent promptly if it knows that any Patent, Trademark or Copyright material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business may imminently become abandoned, lost or dedicated to the public other than by expiration, or of any
materially adverse determination or development, excluding office actions and similar determinations in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office, any court or any similar office of any country, regarding such
Grantor’s ownership of any such material Patent, Trademark or Copyright or its right to register or to maintain the same. 

(e)    Each Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall (i) inform the
Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent on a quarterly basis of each application by itself, or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, for any Patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and each registration of any
Trademark or Copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any comparable office or agency in any other country filed during the preceding quarter, and (ii) on a quarterly basis, to the
extent that there are applications of the type referenced in clause (i) above, execute and deliver an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit II hereto to evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest, for the ratable
benefit of the Secured Parties, in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright. 
 (f)    Each Grantor shall exercise its
reasonable business judgment consistent with past practice in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any comparable office or agency in any other country with respect to maintaining
and prosecuting each material application relating to any Patent, Trademark and/or Copyright (and obtaining the relevant grant or registration) material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business and to maintain (i) each issued
Patent and (ii) the registrations of each Trademark and each Copyright in each case that is material to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business, including, when applicable and necessary in such Grantor’s reasonable business
judgment, timely filings of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and payment of maintenance fees, and, if any Grantor believes necessary in its reasonable business judgment, to initiate opposition, interference
and cancellation proceedings against third parties. 
 (g)    In the event that any Grantor knows or has reason to know
that any Article 9 Collateral consisting of a Patent, Trademark or Copyright material to the normal conduct of its business has been or is about to be materially infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor shall promptly
notify the Collateral Agent and shall, if such Grantor deems it necessary in its reasonable business judgment, promptly contact such third party, and if necessary in its reasonable business judgment, sue and recover damages, and take such other
actions as are reasonably appropriate under the circumstances. 

  
 29 

 (h)    Nothing in this Agreement prevents any Grantor from disposing of,
discontinuing the use or maintenance of, failing to pursue, or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate or put into the public domain any of its Intellectual Property to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such Grantor determines in its
reasonable business judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business. 

Section 4.06    Further Assurances with Respect to Article 9 Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that, from time
to time at its own expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or prudent, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request (but only to the extent such
request is no more burdensome as any such request made by the Revolver Collateral Agent), in order to perfect, preserve and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the
Secured Parties, to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Article 9 Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor will: (a) at the request of the Collateral Agent during a
Default or Event of Default, mark conspicuously each Chattel Paper included in the Accounts and, at the request of the Collateral Agent, each of its records pertaining to the Article 9 Collateral with a legend, in form and substance satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent, indicating that such document, chattel paper or Article 9 Collateral is subject to the security interest granted hereby; (b) file any assignment of claim form under or pursuant to the federal assignment of claims statute,
31 U.S.C. §3726, any successor or amended version thereof or any regulation promulgated under or pursuant to any version thereof, as may be necessary or prudent, or as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request (but only to the extent such
request is no more burdensome as any such request made by the Revolver Collateral Agent), in order to perfect and preserve the security interests and other rights granted or purported to be granted hereby; (c) furnish to the Collateral Agent,
from time to time at the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request (but only to the extent the same is requested by the Revolver Collateral Agent), statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Article 9 Collateral and such other
reports in connection with the Article 9 Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail; and (d) keep all of its tangible Article 9 Collateral, Deposit Accounts, collateral accounts and Investment Property
in the continental United States. 
 Section 4.07    Intercompany Note. Without limiting the last sentence
of Section 4.03(c), each Grantor will cause any Subordinated Intercompany Debt that constitutes Indebtedness for borrowed money owed to it by any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not an Obligor to be evidenced by the Intercompany Note, duly
executed by it and delivered to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties. Each Grantor agrees, if requested by the Collateral Agent, to immediately demand payment thereunder upon and during the continuance of an Event of
Default specified under Sections 7.01(b), (c), (f), (h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 5. 

REMEDIES 

Section 5.01    Remedies Upon Default. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement: 

  
 30 

 (a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Obligor
agrees to deliver each item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the Intercreditor Agreement) on demand, and it is agreed that the
Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right to take any of or all the following actions at the same or different times (in each case, acting at the written direction of the Administrative Agent): (i) with respect to
any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on demand, the Collateral Agent may cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable Grantors to
the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and the Collateral Agent may also license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or a nonexclusive basis, any such Article 9 Collateral
throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any then-existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers thereunder cannot be obtained and subject to
the provisos set forth in Section 5.03); (ii) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, the Collateral Agent may take possession of the Article 9 Collateral and, without liability for trespass,
the Collateral Agent may, enter any premises where the Article 9 Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Article 9 Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under
the applicable Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law; (iii) automatically (without any request or notice being delivered by the Collateral Agent or any other Person) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default pursuant to Sections 7.01(b), (c), (f), (h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement, and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, after written notice by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower, all rights of
any Grantor to all cash, checks, drafts and other instruments or writings for the payment of money constituting proceeds of Article 9 Collateral shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties, in the Collateral Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such cash, checks, drafts and other instruments or writings for the payment of money constituting proceeds of Article 9 Collateral.
Automatically (without any request or notice being delivered by the Collateral Agent or any other Person) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 7.01(b), (c), (f), (h) or (i) of the Credit
Agreement, and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, after written notice by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower, all cash, checks, drafts and other instruments or writings for the payment of money
constituting proceeds of Article 9 Collateral received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of Section 5.01(a)(iii) shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart
therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent (or the Revolver Collateral Agent as gratuitous bailee under the
Intercreditor Agreement), for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent); provided, that (x) the failure of the Collateral Agent to
give the notice referred to in this sentence shall have no effect on the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, and (y) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to deliver any such notice if such delivery would be prohibited by applicable
law. Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.01(a)(iii) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon
receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.02. 

  
 31 

 
After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent a certificate to that effect, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each
Grantor (without interest) all cash, checks, drafts and other instruments or writings for the payment of money constituting proceeds of Article 9 Collateral that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement and that remain in such account. 
 (b)    After the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the
continuance thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to verify under reasonable procedures the validity, amount, quality, quantity, value, condition and status of, or any other matter relating to, the Article 9 Collateral, including, in
the case of Accounts or Article 9 Collateral in the possession of any third Person, by contacting Account Debtors or the third Person possessing such Article 9 Collateral for the purpose of making such a verification. The Collateral Agent shall have
the right to share any information it gains from such inspection or verification with any Secured Party. 

(c)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Obligor agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have the
right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any
broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. The Collateral Agent shall be authorized in connection with any sale of a security (if it deems it
advisable to do so) pursuant to the foregoing to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who represent and agree that they are purchasing such security for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution
or sale thereof. Upon consummation of any such sale of Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.01, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such
purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Obligor, and each Obligor hereby waives and releases (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay, valuation and
appraisal that such Obligor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted; and 

(d)    The Collateral Agent may also exercise any other remedy available at law or equity. 

(e)    The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Obligors 10 Business Days’ written notice (which each Obligor
agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such
notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on
which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix
and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or the portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion)
determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Collateral Agent may,

  
 32 

 
without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may,
without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral
Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in the event that any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take
up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon notice given in accordance with provisions above. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to
this Section 5.01, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase for cash, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Obligor (all such rights being also hereby waived and
released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may (subject to the Collateral Agent’s consent) make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable pursuant to the Loan
Documents to such Secured Party from any Obligor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Obligor
therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Obligor shall be
entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured
Obligations paid in full. The Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be
considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to
foreclose upon the Collateral and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions. 

Each Obligor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay
the Secured Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any external attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency. 

Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Section 5.01, the Collateral Agent shall only act or exercise any right hereunder upon
the prior written direction of the Administrative Agent (with such direction being deemed given upon the Borrower providing notice or a certificate in accordance with Section 3.07, 5.01(b) or Section 7.14(e), in each case for the purposes set forth
in such Sections). 
 Section 5.02    Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement, all cash proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be promptly applied by the Collateral Agent as follows: 

(a)    First, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and
other amounts payable to the Agents and incurred by the Agents in connection with such sale, collection or other realization, or otherwise in connection with this 

  
 33 

 
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations, including all court costs and the fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by
the Agents hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Obligor and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; 

(b)    Second, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the amounts so applied to be distributed among
the Secured Parties as specified in Section 9.21 of the Credit Agreement; and 
 (c)    Last, the balance,
if any, after all Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower (to be distributed among the Obligors, at the discretion of the Borrower) or as otherwise required by applicable law. 

The Collateral Agent, acting at the written direction of the Administrative Agent, shall have absolute discretion as to the time of
application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial
proceeding), the receipt of the purchase money by the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated
to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 

Section 5.03    Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral
Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor shall, upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time after and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, grant to (in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion) the Collateral Agent or a designee of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, an
irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, license or, solely to the extent necessary to exercise such rights and remedies, sublicense Intellectual Property constituting
Article 9 Collateral, now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located, and including, without limitation, in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored
and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.03 shall require such Grantor to grant any license that is prohibited by any rule of law,
statute or regulation or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of or gives rise to any right of acceleration, modification or cancellation under any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other
document evidencing, giving rise to a right to use or theretofore granted with respect to such property; provided, further, that such licenses to be granted hereunder with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to the maintenance of
quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the use of such license by the Collateral Agent may be
exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent (upon the written direction of the Administrative Agent), upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any permitted license, sublicense or other
transaction entered into by the Collateral Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantors notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default. 
  

  
 34 

 Section 5.04    Securities Act, etc. In view of the
position of the Obligors in relation to the Investment Property Collateral (as defined below for purposes of this Article 5 only), or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or
hereafter in effect, or any similar federal statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to
any disposition of the Pledged Collateral or the Article 9 Collateral consisting of or relating to Equity Interests (all such Collateral referred to in this Article as “Investment Property Collateral”) permitted hereunder. Each
Obligor understands that compliance with the Federal Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the Collateral Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Investment Property Collateral,
and might also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of any Investment Property Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Collateral Agent
in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Investment Property Collateral under applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such
restrictions and limitations, the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, upon the written direction of the Administrative Agent, (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of
registering such Investment Property Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws or, to the extent applicable, Blue Sky or other state securities laws, (b) may approach and negotiate with a single
potential purchaser to effect such sale and (c) may, with respect to any sale of the Investment Property Collateral, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Investment Property Collateral for their own
account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale
without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Investment Property Collateral at a price that the Collateral Agent, at the written
direction of the Administrative Agent, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as
aforesaid or if more than a single purchaser were approached. The provisions of this Section 5.04 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the
price at which the Collateral Agent sells. 
 Section 5.05    Registration, etc. Each Obligor agrees
that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if for any reason the Collateral Agent, acting at the written direction of the Administrative Agent, desires to sell any of the Investment Property Collateral at a public
sale, it will, at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or to cause each applicable Pledged Interests Issuer to take
such action and prepare, distribute and/or file such documents as are required or advisable in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Collateral Agent to permit the public sale of such Investment Property Collateral. Each Obligor further agrees
to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the 

  
 35 

 
Collateral Agent, each other Secured Party, any underwriter and their respective officers, directors, affiliates and controlling Persons from and against all loss, liability, expenses, costs of
counsel (including reasonable fees and expenses to the Collateral Agent of legal counsel), and claims (including the costs of investigation) that they may incur insofar as such loss, liability, expense or claim arises out of or is based upon any
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus, notification or offering circular (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or arises out of or is based upon any alleged omission to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any thereof not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by any untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Grantor or the Pledged
Interests Issuer by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party expressly for use therein. Each Obligor further agrees, upon such written request referred to above, to use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify, file or register, or
cause applicable Pledged Interests Issuer to qualify, file or register, any of the Investment Property Collateral under the Blue Sky or other securities laws of such states as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent and keep effective,
or cause to be kept effective, all such qualifications, filings or registrations. Each Obligor will bear all costs and expenses of carrying out its obligations under this Section 5.05. Each Obligor acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy
at law for failure by it to comply with the provisions of this Section 5.05 only and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages and, therefore, agrees that its agreements contained in this Section 5.05 may be
specifically enforced. 
 ARTICLE 6. 

INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION AMONG OBLIGORS 

Section 6.01    Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the
Obligors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 6.03), (a) the Borrower agrees that (i) in the event a payment shall be made by any Obligor (other than the Borrower) under this Agreement in respect of any Obligation of the
Borrower, the Borrower shall indemnify such Obligor for the full amount of such payment and such Obligor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (ii) in the
event any assets of any Obligor (other than the Borrower) shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Collateral Document to satisfy in whole or in part an Obligation of the Borrower, the Borrower shall indemnify such Obligor in an amount
equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold and (b) each Obligor (other than the Borrower) (each such Obligor, together with the Borrower in the context of clause (a) above, an
“Indemnifying Obligor”) agrees that (i) in the event a payment shall be made by any other Obligor under this Agreement in respect of any Obligation of such Obligor, such Obligor shall indemnify such other Obligor for the full
amount of such payment and such other Obligor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (ii) in the event any assets of any other Obligor shall be sold pursuant
to this Agreement or any other Collateral Document to satisfy in whole or in part an Obligation of such Obligor, such Obligor shall indemnify such other Obligor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the
assets so sold. 
 Section 6.02    Contribution and Subrogation. Each Obligor (a “Contributing
Obligor”) agrees (subject to Section 6.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Obligor 

  
 36 

 
hereunder in respect of any Secured Obligation or assets of any other Obligor shall be sold pursuant to any Collateral Document to satisfy any Secured Obligation owed to any Secured Party and
such other Obligor (the “Claiming Obligor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Indemnifying Obligor as provided in Section 6.01, the Contributing Obligor shall indemnify the Claiming Obligor in an amount equal to the
amount of such payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as applicable, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of such Contributing Obligor on the date hereof and
the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Obligors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Obligor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.15, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Obligor).
Any Contributing Obligor making any payment to a Claiming Obligor pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Obligor under Section 6.01 to the extent of such payment. 

Section 6.03    Subordination. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all
rights of the Obligors under Sections 6.01 and 6.02 and all other rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation of the Obligors under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the
Secured Obligations. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any other Obligor to make the payments required by Sections 6.01 and 6.02 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations
and liabilities of any Obligor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Obligor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Obligor hereunder. 

(b)    Each Obligor hereby agrees that all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations owed by it to any other Obligor or

out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower, provided that no
Lender shall be liable to the Collateral Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent found in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees or
agents. 
 (d)    Any such amounts payable by any Obligor as provided hereunder shall be additional Secured Obligations
secured hereby and by the other Collateral Documents. The provisions of this Section 7.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Secured Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral
Agent or any other Secured Party. All amounts due under this Section 7.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor. 

Section 7.06    Collateral Agent Appointed
Attorney-in-Fact. Each Obligor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as the
attorney-in-fact of such Obligor for, subject to the Intercreditor 

  
 39 

 
Agreement, the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish
the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of such Obligor (and each Obligor hereby authorizes each of the following to the extent applicable to such entity in
such entity’s capacity or capacities hereunder): (a) to receive, endorse, assign or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to
demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to ask for, demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all moneys due or to become due under and
by virtue of any Collateral; (d) to sign the name of such Obligor on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (e) to send verifications of Accounts to any Account Debtor; (f) to commence and prosecute any and
all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (g) to settle, compromise,
compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (h) to notify, or to require such Obligor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Collateral Agent; and (i) to use,
sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the
Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the
nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any
property covered thereby. Each of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received by it as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their
respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Obligor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except, respectively, to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 7.06, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.06 unless (x) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or
(y) such rights under this power of attorney are exercised to take any action necessary to secure the validity, perfection or priority of the Liens on the Collateral. 

Section 7.07    Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICT OF LAWS AND PRINCIPLES SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

Section 7.08    Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial 

  
 40 

 
exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights,
powers or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 7.08(b), and
then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of
Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Obligor in any case shall entitle any Obligor to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b)    Without modifying
Section 7.03(b), neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Collateral Agent and the Obligors with respect to which such
waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement. 

Section 7.09    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.09. 

Section 7.10    Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in
any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The
parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 Section 7.11    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 7.03. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile or an electronic
transmission of a PDF copy thereof shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original. Any such delivery shall be followed promptly by delivery of the manually signed original.

 Section 7.12    Headings. Article and Section headings and
the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

Section 7.13    Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each party to this Agreement
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any
thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each Obligor further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any action or
proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties thereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at the address of the Borrower specified pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement. Each of the parties
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Subject to Section 8.08 of the Credit Agreement,
nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any
Obligor, or its properties, in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (b)    Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document in any New York State or federal court sitting in New York County. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such
action or proceeding in any such court. 
 Section 7.14    Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement,
the guarantees made herein, the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate, and each Obligor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder, when all the Obligations are paid in full in cash
(other than contingent indemnification obligations). 
 (b)    Upon the consummation of any transaction or series of
transactions as a result of which any Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower or ceases to be a Revolver Loan Party (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement), in each case that is not prohibited by the Loan Documents,
then such Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the security interests in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released. 

(c)    Upon any conveyance, sale, lease, assignment, transfer or other disposition by any Grantor or Pledgor of any
Collateral to any Person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction or series of transactions that is not prohibited by the Loan Documents, 

  
 42 

 
or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement, the security
interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released. 
 (d)    If any Guarantee by a Guarantor or any security
interest granted hereby in or pledge provided herein of any Collateral violates or is in contravention of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement or Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement, such
Guarantee or such security interest in or pledge of such Collateral, as applicable, shall be automatically released. 

(e)    In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 7.14, upon the written request of the
applicable Obligor, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Obligor, at such Obligor’s expense, all documents that such Obligor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release and shall assist such Obligor in
making any filing in connection therewith. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.14 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent. 

Section 7.15    Additional Subsidiary Obligors. Any Subsidiary of the Borrower may become a party hereto by
signing and delivering to the Collateral Agent a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement, substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto (with such changes and modifications thereto as may be required by the laws of any applicable
Foreign Jurisdiction), whereupon such Subsidiary shall become an “Obligor”, a “Subsidiary Guarantor”, a “Pledgor” and a “Grantor” (or any one or more of the foregoing) defined herein with the same force and
effect as if originally named as an Obligor, a Subsidiary Guarantor, a Pledgor and a Grantor (or any one or more of the foregoing), as applicable, herein. Any such Subsidiary becoming a party to this Agreement pursuant to this Section will enter
into this Agreement in the capacity or capacities (and only capacity or capacities) set forth on the signature page to such Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the
consent of any other party to this Agreement. The rights and obligations of each party to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new party to this Agreement. 

Section 7.16    Credit Agreement. If any conflict exists between this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, the
Credit Agreement shall govern. 
 Section 7.17    Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Obligor acknowledges
that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or nonexercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other
right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as among the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them,
but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Obligors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Obligor shall be under
any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority. The Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder by the Lenders and, by their acceptance of the

  
 43 

 
benefits hereof, the other Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising
any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

Section 7.18    Other Secured Parties. By its acceptance of the benefits hereof, each Secured Party (including
each Lender) hereby (a) confirms that it has received a copy of the Loan Documents and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own decision to become an Secured Party and acknowledges that it is aware of
the contents of, and consents to the terms of, the Collateral Documents, (b) appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Credit Agreement, the
other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers as are incidental thereto, (c) agrees that it will
be bound by the provisions of the Collateral Documents, and Article VIII (other than Section 8.10) and Article IX of the Credit Agreement (with respect to each such Article, in the case of any Secured Party that is not a Lender, as if such
Secured Party was a Lender party to the Credit Agreement) and will perform in accordance with its terms all such obligations which by the terms of such documents are required to be performed by it as an Secured Party (or in the case of Article VIII
(other than Section 8.10) and Article IX of the Credit Agreement, as a Lender) and will take no actions contrary to such obligations, and (d) authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents as
Collateral Agent and on behalf of such Secured Party. 
 Section 7.19    Intercreditor Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens created hereby and the rights, duties and obligations provided for herein are subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the
terms hereof and the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control at any time the Intercreditor Agreement is in effect. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, prior to the Discharge of the Revolving Credit Facility Obligations (as defined in the
Intercreditor Agreement), the delivery or granting of “control” (as defined in the New York UCC) of any Collateral to the Revolving Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility Collateral Agreement (as defined
the Intercreditor Agreement) shall satisfy any such delivery or granting of “control” requirement hereunder to the extent that such delivery or granting of “control” is consistent with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

 Section 7.20    USA PATRIOT Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in order to help the United States
government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, pursuant to federal regulations that became effective on October 1, 2003 (Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act) all financial institutions are required to obtain, verify,
record and update information that identifies each person establishing a relationship or opening an account. The parties to this Agreement agree that they will provide to the Collateral Agent such information as it may request, from time to time, in
order for the Collateral Agent to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, including but not limited to the name, address, tax identification number and other information that will allow it to identify the individual or entity who is
establishing the relationship or opening the account and may also ask for formation documents such as articles of incorporation or other identifying documents to be provided. 

Section 7.21    Special, Consequential and Indirect Damages. In no event shall the Collateral Agent or any Loan
Party be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent or such Loan Party has been advised of
the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 This INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified

the Persons listed on the signature pages hereof (collectively, the “Grantors”) in favor of Mizuho Bank (USA), as Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (each as hereinafter defined), as applicable. 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of May 28, 2020 (as may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented,
extended, renewed, refinanced, waived or otherwise modified or replaced from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among SUMMIT MIDSTREAM HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), the
Lenders and SMP TopCo, LLC, as administrative agent (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for the Secured Parties, the Lenders have extended Loans to the Borrower;

 WHEREAS, in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Obligors have entered into the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in favor of the
Collateral Agent dated as of even date with the Credit Agreement (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”) in order to induce the Lenders to
make such Loans; 
 WHEREAS, under the terms of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the Grantors have granted to the Collateral Agent,
for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, among other property, certain intellectual property of the Grantors, and have agreed as a condition thereof to execute this IP Security Agreement for recording with the U.S.
Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office and other governmental authorities. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Grantors agree as follows: 
 SECTION
1.    Grant of Security. Each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the following
(the “Collateral”): 
 (a)    the United States Patents (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement) set forth in Schedule A hereto; 
 (b)    the United States registered Trademarks (as defined in the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) and Trademarks for which United States applications are pending set forth in Schedule B hereto; and 

  
 Exhibit II – Page 1

 (c)    the United States registrations of Copyrights (as defined in the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) set forth in Schedule C hereto. 
 SECTION 2.    Recordation. This IP
Security Agreement has been executed and delivered by each Grantor for the purpose of recording the grant of security interest herein with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office. Each Grantor authorizes
and requests that the Register of Copyrights, the Commissioner for Patents and the Commissioner for Trademarks record this IP Security Agreement. 

SECTION 3.    Execution in Counterparts. This IP Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

SECTION 4.    Grants, Rights and Remedies. This IP Security Agreement has been entered into in conjunction with the
provisions of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. Each Grantor does hereby acknowledge and confirm that the grant of the security interest hereunder to, and the rights and remedies of, the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral are more
fully set forth in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this IP Security Agreement and the
terms of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the terms of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall govern. 
 SECTION
5.    Governing Law. THIS IP SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS IP SECURITY AGREEMENT AND ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW OR TORT
LAW, SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 SECTION
6.    Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this IP Security Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions contained herein and in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and
of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
