that will become effective upon filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Act. Each such registration statement, as it may have heretofore been or may hereafter be filed, as amended, is referred to herein as the “Registration
Statement,” and the final form of prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented from time to time, is referred to herein as the “Prospectus.” Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated (or deemed to be incorporated) by reference therein, and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment”
or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing after the execution hereof of any document with the Commission deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. 

 (b) Each part of the Registration Statement, when such part became or becomes effective, and the
Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, on the date of filing thereof with the Commission and at each Settlement Date (as hereinafter defined), conformed or will conform in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the
Rules and Regulations; each part of the Registration Statement, when such part became or becomes effective, did not or will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, on the date of filing thereof with the Commission and at each Settlement Date, did not or will not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; except that the foregoing shall not apply to statements in or omissions from any
such document in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Sales Manager, specifically for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto.

observance of any term, covenant or condition, by the Company of any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or its properties or business may be bound or affected, which default or event would have a Material
Adverse Effect.

disclosed in the Registration Statement and Prospectus, no holder of any security of the Company has the right, which has not been waived, to have any security owned by such holder included in the Registration Statement or any right to demand
registration of any security owned by such holder. 
 (t) All necessary corporate or limited liability company action, as applicable, has
been duly and validly taken by the Company to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Company Equity Securities by the Company. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized,
executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes and will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. Except for any “blue sky” filings or Trading
Market listing applications to be filed pursuant hereto, each approval, consent, order, authorization, designation, declaration or filing by or with any regulatory, administrative or other governmental body necessary in connection with the execution
and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the issuance and sale of the Company Equity Securities by the Company has been obtained or made and is in full force and effect. The
Company will use its best reasonable efforts to cause the Company Equity Securities to be listed for trading on the Trading Market. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Trading Market” is (i) the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., and
(ii) each other nationally recognized securities exchange on which any of the Company Equity Securities is admitted for trading.

regulations of the jurisdictions in which it is conducting business, except where the failure to be so in compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

or which might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, or which has constituted or which might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Company Equity Securities to facilitate the sale or
resale of any of the Company Equity Securities. 
 (y) The Company has filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns which are
required to be filed through the date hereof (and will file all such tax returns when and as required to be filed after the date hereof), or has received extensions thereof, and has paid all taxes shown on such returns to be due on or prior to the
date hereof (and will pay all taxes shown on such returns to be due after the date hereof) and all assessments received by it to the extent that the same are material and have become due, except where the failure to file such a return or pay such
amount would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (z) The Company has met the qualification requirements for a “real estate
investment trust” during its taxable years ending on or after December 31, 1999 and its proposed method of operations will enable it to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a “real estate investment
trust” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), assuming no change in the applicable underlying law. The Company does not know of any event that would cause or is likely to cause the Company to fail to qualify
as a “real estate investment trust” at any time. 
 (aa) The Company is not an “investment company” within the meaning
of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

statements; and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, neither the Company nor any employee or agent thereof has made any payment of funds of the Company or received or retained any funds, and no funds of the Company have been set aside to be
used for any payment, in each case in violation of any law, rule or regulation.

Company or any of the Company’s directors or officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with any provision of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated in connection therewith, including without limitation
Section 402 related to loans and Sections 302 and 906 related to certificates.

SALE AND DELIVERY OF SECURITIES 

2.1 (a) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set
forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell through the Sales Manager, as agent, and the Sales Manager agrees to sell, as agent for the Company, on a best efforts basis at prevailing market prices, shares of Company Equity

  
 7 

 
Securities during the term of this Agreement on the terms set forth herein. Company Equity Securities will be sold from time to time as described in the Registration Statement and Prospectus, in
amounts and, subject to price limitations, as directed by the Company and as agreed to by the Sales Manager; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company to sell any shares of Company Equity Securities through
the Sales Manager. 
 (b) The Company or the Sales Manager may, upon notice to the other party hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly by
telecopy or e-mail), at any time and from time to time suspend the offering of Company Equity Securities; provided, however, that such suspension shall not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the
Company Equity Securities sold hereunder prior to the giving of such notice. 
 (c) The compensation to the Sales Manager for sales of
Company Equity Securities sold under this Agreement shall be at the following commission rates: 3.0% of the gross sales price per share (“sales proceeds”) for the first $8 million of aggregate sales proceeds raised in each Sales Period;
2.5% of sales proceeds for the next $4 million of aggregate sales proceeds raised in each Sales Period and 2.0% of sales proceeds for the next $88 million of aggregate sales proceeds raised in each Sales Period; and 1.0% of sales proceeds for any
additional aggregate sales proceeds raised in each Sales Period, or in the alternative, such other percentages of the sales proceeds as the Sales Manager and the Company shall mutually agree to. For purposes of this section 2.1(c), the initial
“Sales Period” shall have commenced on March 10, 2008 and shall end on December 31, 2014 and each subsequent Sales Period shall be for a two year period, commencing on January 1 and ending on December 31 of the
following calendar year. The remaining proceeds, after further deduction for any transaction fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect to such sale shall constitute the net proceeds to the Company for such Company
Equity Securities (the “Net Proceeds”). For purposes of the first sentence of this section 2.1(c), sales proceeds include sales proceeds from sales of Company Equity Securities by the Sales Manager for the account of the Company, whether
under this Agreement, or otherwise. 
 (d) The Company shall open and maintain a trading account or accounts (the “Trading
Accounts”) at a clearing agent designated by the Sales Manager to facilitate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Net Proceeds from the sale of any Company Equity Securities shall be available in the Trading Accounts on the
third business day (or such other day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following each sale of any Company Equity Securities (each, a “Settlement Date”). The Company shall effect the delivery of the applicable number of
shares of Company Equity Securities to an account or accounts designated by the Sales Manager at The Depository Trust Company on or before the Settlement Date of each sale hereunder. The Sales Manager’s compensation shall be withheld from the
sales proceeds on each Settlement Date and shall be paid to the Sales Manager. 
 (e) At each Settlement Date, the Company shall be deemed
to have affirmed each representation, warranty, covenant and other agreement contained in this Agreement. Any obligation of the Sales Manager under this Agreement shall be subject to the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties of
the Company herein, to the performance by the 

  
 8 

 
Company of its obligations hereunder and to the continuing satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Article IV of this Agreement. 

(f) If the Company shall default on its obligation to deliver Company Equity Securities on any Settlement Date, the Company shall
(i) hold the Sales Manager harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Company and (ii) pay the Sales Manager any commission to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default.

 ARTICLE III 

COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 

3.1 The Company covenants and agrees with the Sales Manager that: 

(a) As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, the Company will (if not previously filed) file the Registration Statement to
permit sales of the Company Equity Securities under the Act. The Company will use its best reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as possible thereafter. 

(b) During the period in which the Sales Agent has been requested to offer and sell Company Equity Securities, the Company will notify the
Sales Manager promptly of the time when any subsequent amendment to the Registration Statement has become effective or any subsequent supplement to the Prospectus has been filed and of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information. The Company will prepare and file with the Commission, promptly upon the Sales Manager’s reasonable request, any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement
or Prospectus that, in the Sales Manager’s reasonable opinion, may be necessary or advisable in connection with the sale of the Company Equity Securities pursuant to this Agreement. The Company will not file any amendment or supplement to the
Registration Statement or Prospectus (other than a supplement to the Prospectus that (i) does not materially change the information about the Company or its business, operations, properties or financial condition previously disclosed in the
Registration Statement or Prospectus, (ii) relates to a “follow-on” offering of Company Equity Securities by the Company, or (iii) relates to an offering of securities other than the Company Equity Securities (each, an
“Excluded Supplement”)) unless a copy thereof has been submitted to the Sales Manager a reasonable period of time before the filing and the Sales Manager has not reasonably objected thereto; and it will notify the Sales Manager at the time
of filing thereof of any document that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, which will then be available on the Company’s website at www.capstead.com (and will furnish to the Sales
Manager any such document that is not available on the Company’s website). The Company will cause each amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus and each filing or report incorporated therein, to be prepared in
form and substance as required by the Act, the Rules and Regulations, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, and to be timely filed with the Commission. 

  
 9 

 (c) The Company will advise the Sales Manager, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain
knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, of the suspension of the qualification of any Company Equity Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or
of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose; and it will promptly use its best reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such a stop order should be issued. 

(d) Within the time during which a prospectus relating to any Company Equity Securities is required to be delivered under the Act, the Company
will comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Act and by the Rules and Regulations, as from time to time in force, so far as necessary to permit the continuance of sales of or dealings in the Company Equity Securities as contemplated by
the provisions hereof and the Prospectus. If during such period any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus to comply with the Act, the Company will promptly
notify the Sales Manager to suspend the offering of Company Equity Securities during such period and the Company will amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or
omission or effect such compliance and will use its best reasonable efforts to have any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus declared effective as soon as possible, unless the Company has reasonable business reasons to
defer public disclosure of the relevant information. 
 (e) The Company will use its best reasonable efforts to qualify any Company Equity
Securities for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Sales Manager designates and to continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the sale of any Company Equity Securities, except that the Company shall not be
required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation or to execute a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction. 

(f) The Company will furnish to the Sales Manager and its legal counsel (at the expense of the Company) copies of the Registration Statement,
the Prospectus (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) and all amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus that are filed with the Commission during the period in which a prospectus relating to any
Company Equity Securities is required to be delivered under the Act (including all documents filed with the Commission during such period that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein), in each case as soon as available and in such
quantities as the Sales Manager may from time to time reasonably request. The Company will take such action as to enable the conditions set forth in Rule 153(b) of the Rules and Regulations to be satisfied at all times that the Sales Agent is
selling any Company Equity Securities. 
 (g) The Company will make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable, but
in any event not later than 15 months after the end of the Company’s current fiscal quarter, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering a 12-month period that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule
158 of the Rules and Regulations. 

  
 10 

 (h) The Company, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are consummated or this
Agreement is terminated, will pay all of its expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder (including, but not limited to, any transaction fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization with respect to
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any blue sky fees) and will pay the expenses of printing all documents relating to the offering. The Company will reimburse the Sales Manager for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
incurred in connection with entering into this Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable travel, reproduction, printing and similar expenses, as well as the reasonable fees and disbursements of its legal counsel. 

(i) The Company shall use its best reasonable efforts to list, subject to notice of issuance, the Company Equity Securities on the applicable
Trading Market. 
 (j) The Company will apply the Net Proceeds from the sale of the Company Equity Securities as set forth in the
Prospectus. 
 (k) The Company will not, directly or indirectly, offer or sell any shares of equity securities (other than the Company
Equity Securities) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, or any rights to purchase or acquire, equity securities (other than the Company Equity Securities) during the period from the date of this Agreement through the final Settlement
Date for the sale of any Company Equity Securities hereunder without (i) giving the Sales Manager at least one business day prior written notice specifying the nature of the proposed sale and the date of such proposed sale and
(ii) suspending activity under this program for such period of time as may reasonably be determined by agreement of the Company and the Sales Manager; provided, however, that no such notice and suspension shall be required in
connection with the Company’s issuance or sale of (i) shares of equity securities pursuant to any employee or director stock option or benefits plan, stock ownership plan, dividend reinvestment plan, as such plans may be amended from time
to time, and (ii) equity securities issuable upon conversion of securities or the exercise of warrants, options or other rights in effect or outstanding on the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph (k) shall not apply
during periods that the Company is neither selling Company Equity Securities through the Sales Manager nor has requested the Sales Manager to sell Company Equity Securities. 

(l) The Company will, at any time during the term of this Agreement, as supplemented from time to time, advise the Sales Manager immediately
after it shall have received notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of any information or fact that would alter or affect any opinion, certificate, letter and other document provided to the Sales Manager pursuant to Article IV herein. 

(m) Each time that the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (other than an Excluded Supplement) and on
the dates specified in Section 4.1(f) below, the Company shall (unless the Company is not then selling Company Equity Securities through the Sales Manager and has not requested the Sales Manager to sell Company Equity Securities) furnish or
cause to be furnished to the Sales Manager forthwith a certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Sales Manager to the effect that the statements contained in the certificates referred to in Section 4.1(f) below that were last
furnished to the Sales Manager are true and correct at the time of such amendment or

supplement, as the case may be, as though made at and as of such time (except that such statements shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and
supplemented to such time) or, in lieu of such certificates, certificates of the same tenor as the certificates referred to in said Section 4.1(f) below, modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as
amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such certificate. 
 (n) Each time that a post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement is declared effective or the Company files an Annual Report on Form 10-K, and at such other times as may be reasonably requested by the Sales Manager, the Company shall (unless the Company is not then selling Company Equity Securities
through the Sales Manager and has not requested the Sales Manager to sell Company Equity Securities) furnish or cause to be furnished forthwith to the Sales Manager and to its legal counsel, a written opinion of Andrews Kurth LLP, counsel to the
Company (“Company Counsel”), or other counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Sales Manager, dated the date of effectiveness of such amendment or the date of filing with the Commission of such document, as the case may be, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Sales Manager, of the same tenor as the opinion referred to in Section 4.1(d) below, but modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of
delivery of such opinion; provided , however that in lieu of such opinion, the Company may furnish the Sales Manager with a letter from Company Counsel to the effect that the Sales Manager may rely on the prior opinion delivered pursuant to
Section 4.1(d) below to the same extent as if it were dated the date of such letter (except that statements in such prior opinion shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented to the time
of delivery of such letter). 
 (o) Each time that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is declared effective or the
Company files an Annual Report on Form 10-K, and at such other times as may be reasonably requested by the Sales Manager, the Company shall (unless the Company is not then selling Company Equity Securities through the Sales Manager and has not
requested the Sales Manager to sell Company Equity Securities) cause Ernst & Young LLP, or other independent accountants then retained by the Company, forthwith to furnish to the Sales Manager a letter, dated the date of effectiveness of
such amendment, or the date of filing of such supplement or other document with the Commission, as the case may be, in form and substance satisfactory to the Sales Manager, of the same tenor as the letter referred to in Section 4.1(e) below but
modified to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter. 
 (p) The
Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Sales Manager, and the Sales Manager represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating
to any Company Equity Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 405, required to be filed with the Commission. Any such free
writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Sales Manager is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents that it has treated and agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433 of the Act, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 of the Act, as applicable 

  
 12 

 
to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely Commission filings where required, legending and record keeping. 

For the purposes of this Section, “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus” means any “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined
in Rule 433 of the Act, relating to any Company Equity Securities in the form filed or required to be filed with the Commission or, if not required to be filed, in the form retained in the Company’s records pursuant to Rule 433(g) of the
Act. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to obtain the consent of the Sales Manager with respect to the
offering of any securities other than Company Equity Securities or any “follow-on” offering of Company Equity Securities pursuant to an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. 

ARTICLE IV 
 CONDITIONS
OF THE SALES MANAGER’S OBLIGATIONS 
 4.1 The obligations of the Sales Manager to sell the Company Equity Securities as provided
herein shall be subject to the accuracy, as of the date hereof, and as of each Settlement Date contemplated under this Agreement, of the representations and warranties of the Company herein, to the performance by the Company of its obligations
hereunder and to the following additional conditions: 
 (a) The Registration Statement has been declared effective. No stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and no proceeding for that purpose shall have been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Company or the Sales Manager, threatened by the Commission, and any request
of the Commission for additional information (to be included in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise) shall have been complied with to the Sales Manager’s reasonable satisfaction. The Company Equity Securities shall have
been listed for trading on the Trading Market. 
 (b) The Sales Manager shall not have advised the Company that the disclosures in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, are not reasonably acceptable to the Sales Manager. 
 (c)
Except as contemplated in the Prospectus, subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there shall not have been any material adverse change in the capital stock of the
Company, or any material adverse change, or any development that may reasonably be expected to cause a material adverse change, in the condition (financial or other), business, net worth or results of operations of the Company, or any adverse change
in the rating assigned to any securities of the Company. 
 (d) (i) The Sales Manager shall have received at the date of the first sale of
Company Equity Securities hereunder (the “Commencement Date”) and at every other date specified in Section 3.1(n) hereof, opinions of Company Counsel, dated as of the Commencement Date and dated as of such other date, in a form
reasonably acceptable to the Sales Manager. 

  
 13 

 (ii) The Sales Manager shall have received a letter from Company Counsel
authorizing the Sales Manager to rely on the opinion on tax matters delivered by Company Counsel as Exhibit 8.1 to the Registration Statement. 

(e) At the Commencement Date and at such other dates specified in Section 3.1(o) hereof, the Sales Manager shall have received a
“comfort letter” from Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants for the Company, or other independent accountants then retained by the Company, dated the date of delivery thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Sales Manager. 
 (f) The Sales Manager shall have received from the Company a certificate, or certificates, signed by the Chief Financial
Officer and Executive Vice President of the Company, dated as of the Commencement Date and (unless the Company is not then selling Company Equity Securities through the Sales Manager and has not requested the Sales Manager to sell Company Equity
Securities) dated as of the first business day of each calendar month thereafter and such other times as the Sales Manager shall request (each, a “Certificate Date”), to the effect that, to the best of their knowledge based upon reasonable
investigation: 
 (i) The representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct, as if made at
and as of the Commencement Date or the Certificate Date (as the case may be), and the Company has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Commencement Date and
each such Certificate Date (as the case may be); 
 (ii) No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement has been issued, and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or, to the knowledge of such officer after due inquiry, is threatened, by the Commission; 

(iii) Since the date of this Agreement there has occurred no event required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to
the Registration Statement or Prospectus that has not been so set forth and there has been no document required to be filed under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder that upon such filing would be deemed to be
incorporated by reference in the Prospectus that has not been so filed; and 
 (iv) Since the date of this Agreement, there
has not been any material adverse change in the assets or properties, business, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company, which has not been described in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or
Prospectus (directly or by incorporation). 
 (g) At the Commencement Date and on each Settlement Date, the Company shall have furnished to
the Sales Manager such appropriate further information, certificates and documents as the Sales Manager may reasonably request. 
 (h) At
the Commencement Date and on each Settlement Date, the Company shall have listed for quotation the Company Equity Securities on the Trading Market. 

  
 14 

 All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents will be in compliance with the
provisions hereof only if they are satisfactory in form and substance to the Sales Manager. The Company will furnish the Sales Manager with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents as the Sales Manager shall
reasonably request. 
 ARTICLE V 

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION 

5.1 (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Sales Manager and each person, if any, who controls the Sales Manager within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, as follows: 
 (i) against any and all loss,
liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the representations in this Agreement or contained in the Registration Statement (or any
amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 
 (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and
expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any
such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and 

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including, subject to Section 5(c) hereof, the reasonable fees
and disbursements of legal counsel chosen by the Sales Manager), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or
any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above; 

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of
any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Sales Manager expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment
thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). 

  
 15 

 (b) The Sales Manager agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors and
each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim,
damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 5.1(a), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendments
thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Sales Manager expressly for use in the Registration
Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The total liability of the Sales Manager under this Section 5.1(b) shall not exceed the total actual sales price of
Company Equity Securities sold by the Sales Manager that is the subject of the dispute. 
 (c) Any indemnified party that proposes to assert
the right to be indemnified under this Article V will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Article V, notify
each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it might have to any
indemnified party to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense of the action, with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party
will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified
party will have the right to employ its own legal counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such legal counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of legal counsel by the
indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on written advice of legal counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified
parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on written advice of legal counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed legal counsel to assume the defense
of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of legal counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or
parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one
separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such fees, disbursements and other charges 

  
 16 

 
will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. An indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent
(which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). 
 (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which
the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Article V is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable from the Company or the Sales Manager, the Company and the Sales Manager will
contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any
claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by the Company from persons other than the Sales Manager, such as persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Act, officers of the Company who signed the Registration
Statement and directors of the Company, who also may be liable for contribution) to which the Company and the Sales Manager may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one
hand and the Sales Manager on the other. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Sales Manager on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting
expenses) received by the Company bear to the total compensation (before deducting expenses) received by the Sales Manager from the sale of Company Equity Securities on behalf of the Company. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing
sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the
Company, on the one hand, and the Sales Manager, on the other, with respect to the statements or omission which resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company or the Sales Manager, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Sales Manager agree that it would not
be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 5.1(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The
amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 5.1(d) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this
Section 5.1(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1(d), the Sales
Manager shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total actual sales price at which Company Equity Securities sold by the Sales Manager exceeds the amount of any damages that the Sales Manager has otherwise
been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 5.1(d), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Act will have the same rights to contribution
as that party, and each officer and 

  
 17 

 
director of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to
contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 5.1(d), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may
be sought, but the omission so to notify will not relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 5.1(d). No party will be liable for contribution with respect
to any action or claim settled without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). 
 (e) The indemnity and
contribution provided by this Article V shall not relieve the Company and the Sales Manager from any liability the Company and the Sales Manager may otherwise have (including, without limitation, any liability the Sales Manager may have for a breach
of its obligations under Article II hereof). 
 ARTICLE VI 

REPRESENTATIONS AND AGREEMENTS TO SURVIVE DELIVERY 

6.1 All representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto, and the agreements of
the Sales Manager contained in Article V hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Sales Manager or any controlling persons, or the Company (or any of their officers,
directors or controlling persons), and shall survive delivery of and payment for any Company Equity Securities. 
 ARTICLE VII

 7.2 The
Sales Manager shall have the right, by giving notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions
of Article 3.1(h), Article V and Article VI hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. 
 7.3 This
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.2 above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to
provide that Section 3.1(h), Article V and Article VI shall remain in full force and effect. 

  
 18 

 7.4 Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of
termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the Sales Manager or the Company, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur during a period when sales
of Company Equity Securities are being made pursuant to this Agreement, any sales of Company Equity Securities made prior to the termination of this Agreement shall settle in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make any new Loan to be made by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder, if any, to make its new Loan, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender
to make any new Loan to be made by such other Lender.

making such elections, Borrower may combine existing Loans made pursuant to separate Borrowings into one new Borrowing or divide existing Loans made pursuant to one Borrowing into separate new Borrowings. To make any such election, Borrower must
give to Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of any such conversion or continuation of existing Loans, with a separate notice given for each new Borrowing. Each such notice constitutes a
“Continuation/Conversion Notice” hereunder and must: 
 (a) specify the existing Loans which are to be continued or
converted; 
 (b) specify (i) the aggregate amount of any Borrowing of ABR Loans into which such existing Loans are to
be continued or converted and the date on which such continuation or conversion is to occur, or (ii) the aggregate amount of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans into which such existing Loans are to be continued or converted, the date on which
such continuation or conversion is to occur (which shall be the first day of the Interest Period which is to apply to such Eurodollar Loans), and the length of the applicable Interest Period; and 

(c) be received by Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the day on which any such
continuation or conversion to ABR Loans is to occur, or (ii) the third Business Day preceding the day on which any such continuation or conversion to Eurodollar Loans is to occur. 

Each such written request or confirmation must be made in the form and substance of the “Continuation/Conversion Notice” attached hereto as
Exhibit C, duly completed. Each such telephonic request shall be deemed a representation, warranty, acknowledgment and agreement by Borrower as to the matters which are required to be set out in such written confirmation. Upon receipt of any
such Continuation/Conversion Notice, Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the terms thereof. Each Continuation/Conversion Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower. During the continuance of any Default, Borrower
may not make any election to convert existing Loans into Eurodollar Loans or continue existing Loans as Eurodollar Loans. If (due to the existence of a Default or for any other reason) Borrower fails to timely and properly give any notice of
continuation or conversion with respect to a Borrowing of existing Eurodollar Loans at least three days prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such Eurodollar Loans shall automatically be converted into ABR Loans at the end of
such Interest Period. No new funds shall be repaid by Borrower or advanced by any Lender in connection with any continuation or conversion of existing Loans pursuant to this section, and no such continuation or conversion shall be deemed to be a new
advance of funds for any purpose; such continuations and conversions merely constitute a change in the interest rate applicable to already outstanding Loans. 

Section 2.4 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use all Loans to finance capital expenditures, and provide working capital for its
operations and for other general business purposes, including the acquisition of oil and gas properties and related assets. In no event shall the funds from any Loan be used directly or indirectly by any Person (a) for personal, family, 

  
 32 

 
household or agricultural purposes or (b) for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of purchasing, acquiring or carrying any “margin stock” or any “margin
securities” (as such terms are defined respectively in Regulation T, U and X promulgated by the Board of Governors) or to extend credit to others directly or indirectly for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock or margin
securities or (c) for the acquisition of any Person unless such acquisition has been approved by the board of directors, management committee or partners, as the case may be of such Person. Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower is not
engaged principally, or as one of Borrower’s important activities, in the business of extending credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying such margin stock or margin securities. 

Section 2.5 Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fees. In consideration of each Revolving Loan Lender’s commitment to make Revolving Loans, Borrower
will pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Loan Lender (excluding any Defaulting Lenders) a commitment fee determined on a daily basis by applying the Commitment Fee Rate to such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan
Percentage Share of the unused portion of the Borrowing Base that is available for Revolving Loans on each day during the Commitment Period. This commitment fee will be due and payable in arrears on each ABR Payment Date and at the end of the
Commitment Period. 
 (b) Other Fees. In addition to all other amounts due to Administrative Agent under the Loan
Documents, Borrower will pay fees to Administrative Agent and TD Securities (USA) LLC as described in a letter agreement dated as of October 4, 2013 between Administrative Agent, TD Securities (USA) LLC and Borrower. 

(c) Letter of Credit Stated Amount Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each
Lender (excluding any Defaulting Lenders), a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, for the period from and including the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit to (but not including) the date upon which
such Letter of Credit expires, at a rate per annum equal to Eurodollar Margin on the Stated Amount (as such Stated Amount may be adjusted, from time to time, as a result of drawings thereunder) of such Letter of Credit, based on a year comprised of
three-hundred and sixty (360) days (such participation fee, “Letter of Credit Fee”). A prorated portion of such fee shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears on each ABR Payment Date, and at the end of the Commitment Period
for any period then ending for which such fee shall not theretofore have been paid, commencing on the first such date after the issuance of such Letter of Credit. 

(d) Letter of Credit Issuance Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuer for its own account an issuance fee for
each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer equal to the greater of (i) $500 or (ii) 0.25% of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be payable by the Borrower quarterly in arrears. The Borrower also agrees to pay such
Issuer’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder, which fees shall be payable to such Issuer within ten (10) days after demand. 

  
 33 

 (e) Additional Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay each of the fees specified
in any fee letters between any Restricted Person and any Arranger, Administrative Agent or Other Agent. 
 (f) Additional
Upfront Fees. In the event that, as a result of a redetermination of the Borrowing Base, the Borrowing Base is increased to an amount that is higher than $800,000,000 (the “Base Amount”; and such higher amount herein the
“Designated Amount”), the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Loan Lender (excluding any Defaulting Lenders), an upfront fee in an amount to be agreed upon between the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent, according to such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage Share of the difference between the Designated Amount and the Base Amount; provided, however, that solely for purposes of calculating
the upfront fee pursuant to this clause (e), upon payment of such upfront fee and for purposes of future upfront fees pursuant to this clause (e), the Base Amount shall be increased to be equal to the last Designated Amount for which an upfront fee
has been paid hereunder. 
 Section 2.6 Optional Prepayments. Borrower may, upon one Business Day’s notice in the case of
ABR Loans, or three Business Days’ notice in the case of Eurodollar Loans, to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, from time to time and without premium or penalty prepay the Revolving Loans, in whole or in part, so long as the
aggregate amounts of all partial prepayments of principal on such prepaid Loans equals $1,000,000 or any higher integral multiple of $1,000,000, so long as Borrower pays all breakage costs associated with the prepayment of any Eurodollar Loan as
provided in Section 3.5, and so long as Borrower does not make any prepayments which would reduce the unpaid principal balance of any Loan to less than $1,000,000 without first either (a) terminating this Agreement or (b) providing
assurance satisfactory to Administrative Agent in its discretion that Lenders’ legal rights under the Loan Documents are in no way affected by such reduction. Each prepayment of principal of a Eurodollar Loan under this section shall be
accompanied by all interest then accrued and unpaid on the principal so prepaid. Any principal or interest prepaid pursuant to this section shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all payments otherwise required to be paid under the Loan
Documents at the time of such prepayment. 
 Section 2.7 Mandatory Prepayments. 

(a) If at any time the Facility Usage exceeds the Aggregate Commitments (whether due to a reduction or termination in any
Commitments in accordance with this Agreement, or otherwise), Borrower shall immediately upon demand prepay the principal of the Loans (and/or provide cash collateral for Letters of Credit) in an amount at least equal to such excess in accordance
with clause (g) below. 
 (b) If at any time the Facility Usage is less than the Aggregate Commitments but in excess of
the Borrowing Base (such excess being herein called a “Borrowing Base Deficiency”), Borrower shall, within five Business Days after Administrative Agent gives notice of such fact to Borrower, either: 

  
 34 

 (i) prepay the principal of the Loans (and/or provide cash collateral for Letters
of Credit) in accordance with clause (g) below in an aggregate amount at least equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency; or 

(ii) give notice to Administrative Agent electing to prepay the principal of the Loans (and/or provide cash collateral) in
accordance with clause (g) below in up to three monthly installments in an aggregate amount at least equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency, with each such installment equal to or in excess of one-third of such Borrowing Base Deficiency, and
with the first such installment to be paid one month after the giving of such notice and the subsequent installments to be due and payable at one month intervals thereafter until such Borrowing Base Deficiency has been eliminated; or 

(iii) give notice to Administrative Agent that Borrower desires to provide Administrative Agent with deeds of trust, mortgages,
chattel mortgages, security agreements, financing statements and other security documents in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, granting, confirming, and perfecting first and prior liens or security interests in collateral
acceptable to Required Lenders, to the extent needed to allow Required Lenders to increase the Borrowing Base (as they in their reasonable discretion deem consistent with prudent oil and gas banking industry lending standards at the time) to an
amount which eliminates such Borrowing Base Deficiency, and then provide such security documents within thirty days after Administrative Agent specifies such collateral to Borrower. If, prior to any such specification by Administrative Agent,
Required Lenders determine that the giving of such security documents will not serve to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency, then, within five Business Days after receiving notice of such determination, Borrower will elect to make, and
thereafter make, the prepayments specified in either of the preceding subsections (i) or (ii) of this subsection (b); 

provided, however, that if a Borrowing Base Deficiency is existing as a result of any Subject Sale or other sale or existing as a
result of the incurrence of Indebtedness as provided in Section 7.1(h), and the corresponding reduction of the Borrowing Base (including the Initial Availability Amount), pursuant to Section 7.1(h) or 7.5, as applicable, the Borrower shall
instead immediately prepay the Loans (and/or provide cash collateral for Letters of Credit) in accordance with Section 7.1(h) or 7.5, as applicable, from the proceeds of such Subject Sale or sale, or incurrence of Indebtedness, as appropriate,
to the extent of the Borrowing Base Deficiency that resulted from such reduction or such sale and reduction. 
 (c)
[Reserved]. 
 (d) [Reserved]. 

(e) Upon the occurrence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency resulting from a Casualty Event pursuant to Section 2.9 (subject to
the Borrower’s and the applicable Subsidiaries’ rights contained in the second paragraph of Section 2.9), the Borrower will 

  
 35 

 
forthwith utilize the Net Cash Proceeds of such Casualty Event to prepay the principal of the Loans (and/or provide cash collateral for Letters of Credit) in an amount sufficient to cure such
Deficiency in accordance with clause (g) below. 
 (f) The Borrower will prepay the Loans (and/or provide cash
collateral) to the extent otherwise required by the other provisions of this Agreement. 
 (g) In the event that the Borrower
is required to prepay the Loans (and/or provide cash collateral) pursuant to clause (a), (b) or (e) above, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and/or provide cash collateral) in the following order of priority: (i) first, to the
prepayment of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and then to the prepayment of Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Loans, and (ii) second, to provide cash collateral to the applicable Issuer in the applicable amount in respect of any
outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the general provisions of Section 2.11(g); 
 (h) Each prepayment of
principal of a Loan under this section shall be accompanied by all interest then accrued and unpaid on the principal so prepaid. Any principal or interest prepaid pursuant to this section shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all payments
otherwise required to be paid under the Loan Documents at the time of such prepayment. 
 Section 2.8 Initial Availability
Amount. The parties hereto agree that the “Initial Availability Amount” shall be an amount equal to $800,000,000. 

Section 2.9 Determinations of Borrowing Base. By each Evaluation Date (or in the case of an Evaluation Date pursuant to clause
(a) of the definition of “Evaluation Date”, within thirty days after such Evaluation Date), Borrower shall furnish to each Lender all information, reports and data which Administrative Agent has then requested concerning Restricted
Persons’ businesses and properties (including their oil and gas properties and interests and the reserves and production relating thereto), together with the Engineering Report described in Section 6.2 which is then due, if any;
provided that in the case of any “Evaluation Date” pursuant to clause (a) of the definition thereof, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Engineering Report of the type described in Section 6.2(e) within
thirty days after such Evaluation Date. Within thirty days after receiving such information, reports and data, Required Lenders shall agree upon an amount for the Borrowing Base, and Administrative Agent shall by notice to Borrower designate such
amount as the new Borrowing Base available to Borrower hereunder, which designation shall take effect immediately on the date such notice is sent (herein called a “Determination Date”) and shall remain in effect until but not
including the next date as of which the Borrowing Base is redetermined in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If Borrower does not furnish all such information, reports and data by the date specified in the first sentence of this
section, Administrative Agent may nonetheless designate the Borrowing Base at any amount which Required Lenders determine and may redesignate the Borrowing Base from time to time thereafter until each Revolving Loan Lender receives all such
information, reports and data, whereupon Required Lenders shall designate a new Borrowing Base as described above. Required Lenders shall determine the amount of the Borrowing Base based upon the loan collateral value which they in their discretion
assign to the various oil and gas properties included in the Collateral at the time in question and based upon such other credit 

  
 36 

 
factors (including without limitation the assets, liabilities, cash flow, hedged and unhedged exposure to price, foreign exchange rate, and interest rate changes, business, properties, prospects,
management and ownership of Borrower and its Affiliates) as they in their discretion deem significant. It is expressly understood that Required Lenders and Administrative Agent have no obligation to agree upon or designate the Borrowing Base at any
particular amount, whether in relation to the Commitments or otherwise, and that Revolving Loan Lenders’ commitments to extend credit hereunder is determined by reference to the Borrowing Base from time to time in effect, which Borrowing Base
shall be used to the extent permitted by Law and regulatory authorities, for the purposes of capital adequacy determination and reimbursements under Section 3.2. Should the last day for Required Lenders to redetermine the Borrowing Base in
connection with a particular Evaluation Date be a day other than a Business Day, the period for such redetermination shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. 

In the event that a Casualty Event has occurred with respect to any properties or assets of any Restricted Person, to the extent that the Net
Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to such Casualty Event (together with all other Net Cash Proceeds received during such calendar year) exceeds 5% of the Borrowing Base then in effect and have not been
applied or budgeted to be applied by the Borrower or any such Subsidiary to repair, restore or replace the property or asset affected by such Casualty Event within 180 days after the occurrence thereof, which actions the Borrower or such Subsidiary
shall hereby be permitted to take, the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, shall have the right to reduce the Borrowing Base, in its reasonable discretion based on its review of such Casualty Event, by the value of the
property or asset so affected by such Casualty Event as set forth in the most recent Engineering Report; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) such repair, restoration or replacement may occur
only with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent may, at the request of the Required Lenders, reduce the Borrowing Base in the manner set forth above without regard to the 180 day period referenced above
and (iii) such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.7 to the extent required thereby. The Administrative Agent shall provide notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the reduction in the Borrowing Base, which
reduction shall be effective as of the date of such notice. 
 Section 2.10 Maturity Date. Borrower shall repay in full in cash
the unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans on the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as may be required in accordance with the terms hereof. 

Section 2.11 Letters of Credit. From time to time on any Business Day prior to the end of the Commitment Period, each Issuer will
issue, and each Revolving Loan Lender will participate in, to the extent of each Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage Share, the Letters of Credit, in accordance with the following terms: 

(a) Issuance Requests. By delivering to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuer an Issuance Request on or
before 11:00 a.m., Central time, the Borrower may request, from time to time during the Commitment Period and on not less than three (3) nor more than ten (10) Business Days’ notice, that such Issuer issue an irrevocable standby
letter of credit in such form as may be mutually agreed to by the Borrower and such Issuer (each a “Letter of Credit”), in support of financial obligations 

  
 37 

 
of the Borrower incurred in the Borrower’s ordinary course of business and which are described in such Issuance Request. Upon receipt of an Issuance Request, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Revolving Loan Lenders thereof. Each Letter of Credit shall by its terms: (i) be issued in a Stated Amount which (A) together with all Letter of Credit Outstandings and all outstanding Revolving Loans does not exceed
(or would not exceed) the lesser of (1) the then current Borrowing Base or (2) the aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments of all Revolving Loan Lenders or (B) together with all Letter of Credit Outstandings would not exceed the Letter
of Credit Commitment Amount; (ii) be stated to expire on a date (its “Stated Expiry Date”) no later than the earlier of (A) one year from its date of issuance and (B) the end of the Commitment Period. So long as no
Default has occurred and is continuing, by delivery to the applicable Issuer and the Administrative Agent of an Issuance Request at least three (3) but not more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Stated Expiry Date of any Letter of
Credit, the Borrower may request such Issuer to, at such Issuer’s option, extend the Stated Expiry Date of such Letter of Credit for an additional period not to exceed the earlier of (x) one year from its date of extension or (y) the
end of the Commitment Period. 
 No Issuer is under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: (i) any order,
judgment or decree of any government agency or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any requirement of applicable Law or any request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) from any government agency with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer
with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the date hereof, or shall impose upon such Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or
expense which was not applicable on the date hereof and which such Issuer in good faith deems material to it; (ii) one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Article IV is not then satisfied; (iii) the expiry date of any
requested Letter of Credit is prior to the maturity date of any financial obligation to be supported by the requested Letter of Credit; (iv) any requested Letter of Credit does not provide for drafts, or is not otherwise in form and substance
acceptable to such Issuer, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies of such Issuer; (v) any standby Letter of Credit is for the purpose of supporting the issuance of any letter of credit by any other Person;
(vi) such Letter of Credit is in a face amount denominated in a currency other than Dollars; or (vii) as a result of such issuance, such Issuer shall have outstanding Letters of Credit having an aggregate Stated Amount of more than
$30,000,000 in the aggregate unless such Issuer shall otherwise agree. The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit shall
(unless otherwise expressly provided in the Letter of Credit) apply to all Letters of Credit. 
 (b) Issuances and
Extensions. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement (including Article IV), the applicable Issuer shall issue Letters of Credit, and extend the Stated Expiry Dates of outstanding Letters of Credit, in accordance with
the Issuance Requests made therefor. Each Issuer will make available the original of 

  
 38 

 
each Letter of Credit which it issues in accordance with the Issuance Request therefor to the beneficiary thereof (and will promptly provide each of the Revolving Loan Lenders and the Borrower
with a copy of such Letter of Credit) and will notify the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit of any extension of the Stated Expiry Date thereof. 

(c) Existing Letter of Credit. The parties acknowledge and agree that each letter of credit issued by an Issuer under
the Existing Credit Agreement identified on Schedule 2.11(c) shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder by an Issuer, as an Issuer hereunder, having the same face amount, maturity date and general terms. 

(d) Other Revolving Loan Lenders’ Participation. Each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to Section 2.11(b)
shall, effective upon its issuance and without further action, be, and each Letter of Credit identified on Schedule 2.11(c) hereof, shall be deemed to be, issued on behalf of all Revolving Loan Lenders (including the Issuer thereof) pro rata
according to their respective Revolving Loan Percentage Shares. Each Revolving Loan Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage Share, be deemed irrevocably to have participated in the issuance of such Letter of Credit and shall be responsible to
reimburse promptly the Issuer thereof for Reimbursement Obligations which have not been reimbursed by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.11(e), or which have been reimbursed by the Borrower but must be returned, restored or disgorged by
such Issuer for any reason, and each Revolving Loan Lender shall, to the extent of its Revolving Loan Percentage Share, be entitled to receive from the Administrative Agent a ratable portion of the Letter of Credit Fee received by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 2.5(c), with respect to each Letter of Credit. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to reimburse any Issuer, or if for any reason Loans shall not be made to fund any Reimbursement Obligation, all as provided in
Section 2.11(e) and in an amount equal to the amount of any drawing honored by such Issuer under a Letter of Credit issued by it, or in the event such Issuer must for any reason return or disgorge such reimbursement, such Issuer shall promptly
notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such drawing and of such Revolving Loan Lender’s respective participation therein. Each Revolving Loan Lender shall make available to such Issuer, whether or not any Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, an amount equal to its respective participation in same day or immediately available funds at the office of such Issuer specified in such notice not later than 11:00 a.m., Central time, on the Business Day (under the
laws of the jurisdiction of such Issuer) after the date notified by such Issuer. In the event that any Revolving Loan Lender fails to make available to such Issuer the amount of such Revolving Loan Lender’s participation in such Letter of
Credit as provided herein, such Issuer shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender together with interest at the daily average Federal Funds Rate for three (3) Business Days (together with such other
compensatory amounts as may be required to be paid by such Revolving Loan Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Rules for Interbank Compensation of the council on International Banking or the Clearinghouse Compensation Committee, as the
case may be, as in effect from time to time) and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans plus two percent (2%). Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Revolving Loan Lender to recover from any
Issuer any amounts made available by such Revolving Loan Lender to such Issuer pursuant to this Section in the event that it is determined by a 

  
 39 

 
court of competent jurisdiction that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit by such Issuer in respect of which payment was made by such Revolving Loan Lender constituted gross negligence
or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuer. Each Issuer shall distribute to each other Revolving Loan Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer such other
Revolving Loan Lender’s Percentage Share of all payments received by such Issuer from the Borrower in reimbursement of drawings honored by such Issuer under such Letter of Credit when such payments are received. 

(e) Disbursements. Each Issuer will notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly of the presentment for
payment of any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer, together with notice of the date (the “Disbursement Date”) such payment shall be made. Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuer shall
make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit. Prior to 11:00 a.m., Central time, on the Disbursement Date (or 11:00 a.m., Central time, on the Business Day following the Disbursement Date if the Borrower shall have
received such notice after 10:00 a.m. on the Disbursement Date), the Borrower will reimburse the applicable Issuer for all amounts which it has disbursed under or in respect of such Letter of Credit. In the event the applicable Issuer is not
reimbursed by the Borrower on the Disbursement Date, or if such Issuer must for any reason return or disgorge such reimbursement, the Revolving Loan Lenders shall, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, fund the Reimbursement
Obligation therefor by making, on the next Business Day, Revolving Loans which are ABR Loans as provided in Section 2.1 (the Borrower being deemed to have given a timely Borrowing Notice therefor for such amount); provided,
however, for the purpose of determining the availability of the Revolving Loan Commitments to make Revolving Loans immediately prior to giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans, such Reimbursement Obligation
shall be deemed not to be outstanding at such time. To the extent the applicable Issuer is not reimbursed in full in accordance with the preceding sentences, the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation shall accrue interest at a fluctuating rate
determined by reference to the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans, plus a margin of two percent (2%) per annum, payable on demand. 

(f) Reimbursement. The Borrower’s obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) under
Section 2.11(e) to reimburse an Issuer with respect to each Disbursement (including interest thereon), and each Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation to make participation payments in each drawing which has not been reimbursed by the
Borrower, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim, or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against any Revolving Loan Lender or any beneficiary of a
Letter of Credit, including any defense based upon the occurrence of any Default, any draft, demand or certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient, the failure of any
disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in the applicable Issuer’s good faith opinion, such disbursement is determined to be appropriate) or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the
proceeds of such disbursement, or the legality, validity, form, regularity, or enforceability of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, 

  
 40 

 
that nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of the Borrower or any Revolving Loan Lender to commence any proceeding against the applicable Issuer for any wrongful disbursement made by
such Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuer. 

(g) Deemed Disbursements. Upon either (i) the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default
pursuant to Section 8.1(j) or the occurrence of the end of the Commitment Period or (ii) the declaration by the Administrative Agent of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and other Obligations to be due and
payable and/or the commitments (if not theretofore terminated) to be terminated as provided in Section 8.1, an amount equal to that portion of Letter of Credit Outstandings attributable to outstanding and undrawn Letters of Credit shall, at the
election of the applicable Issuer acting on instructions from the Required Lenders, and without demand upon or notice to the Borrower, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by such Issuer under such Letters of Credit (notwithstanding that such
amount may not in fact have been so paid or disbursed), and, upon notification by such Issuer to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its obligations under this Section, the Borrower shall be immediately obligated to reimburse such Issuer
the amount deemed to have been so paid or disbursed by such Issuer. Any amounts so received by such Issuer from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be held as collateral security for the repayment of the Borrower’s obligations in
connection with the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuer. All amounts on deposit pursuant to this Section 2.11(g) shall, until their application to any Obligation or their return to the Borrower, as the case may be, at the Borrower’s
written request, be invested in high grade short term liquid investments as such Issuer may choose in its sole discretion reasonably exercised, which interest shall be held by the applicable Issuer as additional collateral security for the repayment
of the Borrower’s Obligations under and in connection with the Letters of Credit and all other Obligations. Any losses, net of earnings, and reasonable fees and expenses of such investments shall be charged against the principal amount
invested. No Lender Party shall be liable for any loss resulting from any investment made by such Issuer at the Borrower’s request. Such Issuer is not obligated hereby, or by any other Loan Document, to make or maintain any investment, except
upon written request by the Borrower. At any time when such Letters of Credit shall terminate and all Obligations to each Issuer are either terminated or paid or reimbursed to such Issuer in full, the Obligations of the Borrower under this Section
shall be reduced accordingly (subject, however, to reinstatement in the event any payment in respect of such Letters of Credit is recovered in any manner from such Issuer), and such Issuer will return to the Borrower the excess, if any, of
(A) the aggregate amount held by such Issuer and not theretofore applied by such Issuer to any Reimbursement Obligation over (B) the aggregate amount of all Reimbursement Obligations to such Issuer pursuant to this Section, as so
adjusted. At such time when all Events of Default shall have been cured or waived, if the end of the Commitment Period shall not have occurred for any reason, each Issuer shall return to the Borrower all amounts then on deposit with such Issuer
pursuant to this Section. Borrower hereby assigns and grants to such Issuer a continuing security interest in all such collateral security paid by it to such Issuer, all investments purchased with such collateral security, and all proceeds thereof
to secure its Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents, and Borrower agrees that 

  
 41 

 
collateral security and investments shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Security Documents. Borrower further agrees that such Issuer shall have all of the rights and
remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State of New York with respect to such security interest and that an Event of Default under this Agreement shall constitute a default for purposes of such security
interest. 
 (h) Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The Borrower shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions, or
misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. Neither any Issuer nor any Lender (except to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) shall be responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
genuineness, or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid,
insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent, or forged; (ii) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of
Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions, or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, facsimile or otherwise; (v) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft
required in order to make a Disbursement under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vi) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any
Letter of Credit; (vii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any
such transferee may be acting), the Issuer (if other than a Lender or its Affiliates) or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Letter of Credit or any unrelated transaction;
(viii) any payment by an Issuer under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit; or any payment made by an Issuer under any Letter of Credit to any
Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit, including any
arising in connection with any insolvency proceeding; or (ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available
to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or a guarantor. None of the foregoing shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted any Issuer or any Lender hereunder. In furtherance and extension, and not in limitation or
derogation, of any of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Issuer in good faith shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to the Borrower. 

(i) Increased Costs; Indemnity. If by reason of (i) any change in applicable law, regulation, rule, decree or
regulatory requirement or any change in the interpretation or application by any judicial or regulatory authority of any law, regulation, rule, decree 

  
 42 

 or regulatory requirement, or (ii) compliance by any Issuer or any Revolving Loan Lender
with any direction, or requirement of any governmental or monetary authority, including, without limitation, Regulation D: (1) any Issuer or any Revolving Loan Lender shall be subject to any tax (other than Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and
Excluded Taxes), levy, charge or withholding of any nature or to any variation thereof or to any penalty with respect to the maintenance or fulfillment of its obligations under this Section 2.11, whether directly or by such being imposed on or
suffered by such Issuer or such Revolving Loan Lender; (2) any reserve, deposit or similar requirement is or shall be applicable, increased, imposed or modified in respect of any Letters of Credit issued by any Issuer or participations therein
purchased by any Revolving Loan Lender; or (3) there shall be imposed on any Issuer or any Revolving Loan Lender any other condition regarding this Section 2.11, any Letter of Credit or any participation therein, and the result of the
foregoing is directly to increase the cost to such Issuer or such Revolving Loan Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or of purchasing or maintaining any participation therein, or to reduce any amount receivable in respect thereof
by such Issuer or such Revolving Loan Lender, then and in any such case such Issuer or such Revolving Loan Lender may, at any time after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower thereof, and the Borrower shall pay within ten (10) days of demand such amounts as such Issuer or Revolving Loan Lender may in good faith specify to be necessary to compensate such Issuer or Revolving Loan Lender for such additional
cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate equal at all times to the Alternate Base Rate per annum; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated
by any Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to
be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. The determination by such Issuer or Revolving Loan Lender, as the case may be, of any amount due pursuant to this Section, as set forth in a statement setting forth the
calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of such amounts. 
 In addition to amounts
payable as elsewhere provided in this Section 2.11, the Borrower hereby indemnifies, exonerates and holds each Issuer, the Administrative Agent and each other Lender Party harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits,
losses, costs, liabilities and damages, and expenses incurred in connection therewith (irrespective of whether such Issuer, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party is a party to the action for which indemnification is sought), including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, which such Issuer, the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of the Letters of Credit, other than, as to each
such indemnified party, as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified party, as the case may be, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or the failure of such Issuer to honor a drawing under any Letter of
Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority. 

  
 43 

 (j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuer shall be obligated
to issue, renew or extend a Letter of Credit if such Issuer has a good faith belief that any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless such Issuer has entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuer with the
Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate such Issuer’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender. If any Letter of Credit Outstandings exist at the time a Lender is an Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall within one Business Day
following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s portion of such Letter of Credit Outstandings in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such Issuer for so long as such Lender is an Defaulting Lender and
such Letter of Credit Outstandings exist. 
 Section 2.12 Interest. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, all ABR Loans (exclusive of any past due principal or interest) from time to time outstanding shall bear interest on each day outstanding at the Alternate Base Rate in effect on such day. If an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, all ABR Loans (exclusive of any past due principal or interest) from time to time outstanding shall bear interest on each day outstanding at the Default Rate in effect on such day. On each ABR Payment Date Borrower shall pay to the
holder hereof all unpaid interest which has accrued on the ABR Loans to but not including such ABR Payment Date. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Eurodollar Loan (exclusive of any past due principal or interest)
shall bear interest on each day during the related Interest Period at the related Eurodollar Rate in effect on such day. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Eurodollar Loan (exclusive of any past due principal or interest)
from time to time outstanding shall bear interest on each day outstanding at the Default Rate in effect on such day. On each Eurodollar Rate Payment Date relating to such Eurodollar Loan, Borrower shall pay to the holder hereof all unpaid interest
which has accrued on such Eurodollar Loan to but not including such Eurodollar Rate Payment Date. All past due principal of and past due interest on the Loans and all other past due Obligations shall bear interest on each day outstanding at the
Default Rate in effect on such day until repaid, and such interest shall be due and payable daily as it accrues. 
 Section 2.13
Register; Notes. The Register shall be maintained on the following terms. 
 (a) The Borrower hereby designates the
Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for the purpose of this clause, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record each Lender’s Commitments, the Loans made
by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, annexed to which the Administrative Agent shall retain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.6.
Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Restricted Person’s Obligations. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan is registered as the owner thereof for the purposes of all Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. Any assignment or transfer of a Commitment
or the Loans made 

  
 44 

 pursuant hereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Administrative
Agent of an Assignment and Acceptance that has been executed by the requisite parties pursuant to Section 10.6. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or Loans shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have
been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section. 
 (b) [Reserved]. 

(c) [Reserved]. 

(d) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request of any Revolving Loan Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such
Lender a Revolving Loan Note evidencing the Revolving Loans made by, and payable to, such Revolving Loan Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage Share of the original aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitments. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Revolving Loan Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Revolving Loan Lender’s Note (or on any continuation of such
grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Revolving Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the
extent not inconsistent with notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on each Restricted Person absent manifest error; provided that, the failure of any Revolving Loan Lender to make any such
notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Restricted Person. 
 (e) Interest on each Note shall
accrue and be due and payable as provided herein and therein, with Eurodollar Loans bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate and ABR Loans bearing interest at the Alternate Base Rate (subject to the applicability of the Default Rate as provided for
herein or in the Notes and limited by the provisions of Section 10.9). 
 Section 2.14 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.5(a); 
 (b) the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all
Lenders, the Majority Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.1); provided, that Defaulting Lenders shall
have the right to vote to the extent (and only to the extent) expressly stated in Section 10.1; 
 (c) if any Letter of
Credit Outstandings exist at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

  
 45 

 (i) all or any part of the Letter of Credit Outstandings of such Defaulting
Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and,
unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), (y) such reallocation does not cause the
Percentage Share of any non-Defaulting Lender in the Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and (z) of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Facility Usage plus such Defaulting Lender’s
Letter of Credit Outstandings does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that
Lender’s having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation; 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall
within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of any Issuing Bank only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings (after
giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.11(g) for so long as such Letter of Credit Outstandings are outstanding; 

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings pursuant
to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.5(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings during the period such Defaulting
Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the Letter of Credit Outstandings of the
non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.5(a) and Section 2.5(c) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Percentage
Shares; and 
 (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings are neither
reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.5(c) with
respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Outstandings shall be payable to such Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Outstandings is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; 

  
 46 

 (d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be
required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Outstandings will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting
Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.14(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner
consistent with Section 2.14(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein); and 
 (e) any payment of principal,
interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article III or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.6 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative
Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuers hereunder on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Letter of
Credit Outstandings with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.11(g); fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such
Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and
released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize any future Letter of Credit Outstandings with respect to
such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 4.11(g); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, or the Issuers as a result of any final and
nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any Issuer against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as
no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result
of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment
of the principal amount of any Loans or Letter of Credit Outstandings in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time
when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Outstandings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied
to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit Outstandings owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Outstandings are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with
their respective Percentage Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.14(c)(i)). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post
cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto; 

  
 47 

 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Banks each agrees that a
Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender
shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage; provided that no adjustments
will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the
affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

Section 2.15 Reduction of Aggregate Commitments. 

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

(b) Optional Termination and Reduction of Aggregate Credit Amounts. 

(i) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Aggregate Commitments; provided that
(A) any such reduction shall apply proportionately and permanently to reduce the Commitments of each of the Lenders, (B) each reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and
(C) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.6 the Facility Usage shall not exceed the lowest of (1) the
Borrowing Base in effect as of the date on which the requested reduction is to be made, (2) the Aggregate Commitments or (3) the Facility Amount. 

(ii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments under
Section 2.15(b)(i) at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall
advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15(b)(ii) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Aggregate Commitments delivered by the Borrower may
state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition
is not satisfied. Each reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Revolving Loan Percentage Shares. 

  
 48 

 ARTICLE III - Payments to Lenders 

Section 3.1 General Procedures. Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, Borrower will make each payment which it
owes under the Loan Documents to Administrative Agent at its New York office (in accordance with the then effective wire instructions provided by Administrative Agent to Borrower) for the account of the Lender Party to whom such payment is owed.
Each such payment must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date such payment becomes due and payable, in lawful money of the United States of America, without set-off, deduction (except for any
deduction for Taxes as described in Section 3.6(a)) or counterclaim, and in immediately available funds. Any payment received by Administrative Agent after such time will be deemed to have been made on the next following Business Day. Should
any such payment become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of a payment of principal or past due interest, interest shall accrue
and be payable thereon for the period of such extension as provided in the Loan Document under which such payment is due. Each payment under a Loan Document shall be due and payable at the place provided therein and, if no specific place of payment
is provided, shall be due and payable at the place of payment of Administrative Agent’s New York office or as otherwise directed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Lender Party its
share, if any, of such payments received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party. Administrative Agent may, and upon direction of the Required Lenders shall, apply all amounts received pursuant to any exercise of remedies under
the Loan Documents (including from proceeds of collateral securing the Obligations) or under applicable law upon receipt thereof to the Obligations as follows: 

(a) first, for the payment of all fees and expenses of Administrative Agent and its counsel which are then due until such
amounts are paid in full (and, to the extent such amounts received are proceeds from the foreclosure or other sale of real property, for the payment of all fees and expenses of the trustee, if applicable); 

(b) then for the payment of all other Obligations which are then due (and if such money is insufficient to pay all such
Obligations, first to any reimbursements due Administrative Agent under Section 6.9 or 10.4 until such amounts are paid in full, second to the payment of all interest on the Loans then due on a pro rata basis until such amounts
are paid in full, third to the payment of all principal on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations or cash collateralization in respect of Letters of Credit and all Obligations owing to an Approved Counterparty under a Hedging Contract, on a
pro rata basis until such amounts are paid in full, and fourth to the payment of all other Obligations then due in proportion to the amounts thereof, or as Lender Parties shall otherwise agree) until such amounts are paid in full; 

(c) then for the prepayment of any other Obligations, if any until such amounts are paid in full; and 

(d) last, to the Borrower or any other Person as directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 

  
 49 

 All payments applied to principal or interest on any Loan shall be applied first to any interest then due and
payable, then to principal then due and payable, and last to any prepayment of principal and interest in compliance with Sections 2.6 and 2.7. All distributions of amounts described in any of subsections (b), (c) or (d) above shall be made
by Administrative Agent pro rata to each Lender Party then owed Obligations described in such subsection (or subclause thereof) in proportion to all amounts owed to all Lender Parties which are described in such subsection (or subclause thereof).

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from the Borrower or any Restricted Person that is not an Eligible Contract Participant
shall not be applied to any Excluded Obligations in respect of a Hedging Contract owing to any Approved Counterparty in respect of any Hedging Contract (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Obligations other than
Excluded Obligations in respect of a Hedging Contract as a result of this clause, the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to clause fourth above from amounts received from
Eligible Contract Participants to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to Obligations described above by any Approved Counterparty that is the holder of any Excluded Obligations in respect of a
Hedging Contract are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other Obligations pursuant to clause (b) above). 

Section 3.2 Capital Reimbursement. If either (a) the introduction or implementation of or the compliance with or any change
in or in the interpretation of any Law, or (b) the introduction or implementation of or the compliance with any request, directive or guideline from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of Law)
affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by any Lender Party (or any assignee of such Lender Party) or any corporation controlling any Lender Party (or its assignee), then, upon demand by such
Lender Party, Borrower will pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, such additional amount or amounts which such Lender Party shall reasonably determine to be appropriate
to compensate such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party in light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines that the amount of any such capital would be increased or the rate of return
on any such capital would be reduced by or in whole or in part based on the existence of the face amount of such Lender Party’s Loans or commitments under this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
(i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by any Bank
for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change
in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. 
 Section 3.3 Increased Cost of Eurodollar Loans. If any applicable
Law (whether now in effect or hereinafter enacted or promulgated, including Regulation D) or any interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having
the force of Law) (“Change in Law”): 

  
 50 

 (a) shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender Party of any
principal, interest, or other amounts attributable to any Eurodollar Loan or otherwise due under this Agreement in respect of any Eurodollar Loan (other than Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and Excluded Taxes); or 

(b) shall change, impose, modify, apply or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements in respect of
any Eurodollar Loan (excluding those for which such Lender Party is fully compensated pursuant to adjustments made in the definition of Eurodollar Rate) or against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, such Lender
Party; or 
 (c) shall impose on any Lender Party or the interbank eurocurrency deposit market any other condition affecting
any Eurodollar Loan, the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender Party of funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum receivable by any Lender Party in respect of any Eurodollar Loan by an amount
deemed by such Lender Party to be material, 
 then such Lender Party shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower in writing of the happening of
such event and of the amount required to compensate such Lender Party for such event, whereupon (i) Borrower shall pay such amount to Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party and (ii) Borrower may elect, by giving to
Administrative Agent and such Lender Party not less than three Business Days’ notice, to convert all (but not less than all) of any such Eurodollar Loans into ABR Loans; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
(i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by any Bank
for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a Change
in Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. 
 Section 3.4 Availability. If (a) any change in applicable
Laws, or in the interpretation or administration thereof or in any jurisdiction whatsoever, domestic or foreign, shall make it unlawful or impracticable for any Lender Party to fund or maintain Eurodollar Loans (or to participate in, issue or
maintain any Letter of Credit), or shall materially restrict the authority of any Lender Party to purchase or take offshore deposits of dollars (i.e., “eurodollars”), or (b) any Lender Party determines that matching deposits
appropriate to fund or maintain any Eurodollar Loan (or to participate in, issue or maintain any Letter of Credit) are not available to it, or (c) any Lender Party determines that the formula for calculating the Eurodollar Rate does not fairly
reflect the cost to such Lender Party of making or maintaining Loans (or of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit) based on such rate, then, upon notice by such Lender Party to Borrower and Administrative Agent,
Borrower’s right to elect Eurodollar Loans from such Lender Party shall be suspended to the extent and for the duration of such illegality, impracticability or restriction and all Eurodollar Loans (or participations in, issuances of or
maintenance of any Letter of Credit) of such Lender Party which are then outstanding or are then the subject of any Borrowing Notice (or Issuance Request) and which cannot lawfully or practicably be maintained or funded shall immediately become or
remain, or shall be funded as, ABR Loans of such Lender Party. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender Party and hold it 

  
 51 

 harmless against all costs, expenses, claims, penalties, liabilities and damages which may result from any such
change in Law, interpretation or administration. Such indemnification shall be on an after-tax basis, taking into account any taxes imposed on the amounts paid as indemnity. 

Section 3.5 Funding, Losses. In addition to its other obligations hereunder, Borrower will indemnify each Lender Party against,
and reimburse each Lender Party on demand for, any loss or expense incurred or sustained by such Lender Party (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by a Lender Party
to fund or maintain Eurodollar Loans), as a result of (a) any payment or prepayment (whether authorized or required hereunder or otherwise) of all or a portion of a Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the day on which the applicable Interest
Period ends, (b) any payment or prepayment, whether required hereunder or otherwise, of a Loan made after the delivery, but before the effective date, of a Continuation/Conversion Notice, if such payment or prepayment prevents such
Continuation/Conversion Notice from becoming fully effective, (c) the failure of any Loan to be made or of any Continuation/Conversion Notice to become effective due to any condition precedent not being satisfied or due to any other action or
inaction of any Restricted Person, or (d) any conversion (whether authorized or required hereunder or otherwise) of all or any portion of any Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan or into a different Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the day on
which the applicable Interest Period ends. Such indemnification shall be on an after-tax basis, taking into account any taxes imposed on the amounts paid as indemnity. 

Section 3.6 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any Taxes except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from such payments, then (i) in the case of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable shall
be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.6(a)), the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuer (as
the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make all deductions required by applicable law and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted
to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any
Other Taxes to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuer within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuer, as the case may be, on or with
respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed 

  
 52 

 
or asserted by the relevant governmental authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or Issuer, or by the Administrative Agent on
its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) As soon as
practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a governmental authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such governmental authority
evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to
backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) a Foreign Lender,
that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the
Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

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

  
 53 

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

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of
any Co-Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and
(y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner,
executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from
each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner. 

(B) each Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

(f) If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuer determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund
of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.6, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only
to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.6 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative
Agent, such Lender, 

  
 54 

 
or such Issuer agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) to the Administrative Agent,
such Lender or such Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. 

(g) Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Borrower, an Issuer or Administrative Agent, as applicable, from any
United States taxes, penalties, interest and other expenses, costs and losses incurred or payable by (i) the Administrative Agent as a result of such Lender’s failure to submit any form or certificate that it is required to provide
pursuant to this Section 3.6 or (ii) the Borrower, an Issuer or the Administrative Agent as a result of their reliance on any such form or certificate which such Lender has provided to them pursuant to this Section 3.6. 

(h) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code)
and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and 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 clause (h), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement. 
 (i) U.S. Lenders. Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that
such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax. 
 Section 3.7 Change of Applicable Lending Office. Each Lender
Party agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of any of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6 with respect to such Lender Party, it will, if requested by Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy
considerations of such Lender Party) to designate another Lending Office, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender Party and its Lending Office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object
of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such section. Nothing in this section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of Borrower or the rights of any Lender Party provided in any of Sections 3.2, 3.3,
3.4, 3.5 or 3.6. 

  
 55 

 Section 3.8 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender Party seeks reimbursement for
increased costs under any of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6, or if any Lender Party becomes a Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to Section 10.1 or a Defaulting Lender, then within ninety days thereafter and provided no Event of Default then
exists, Borrower shall have the right (unless such Lender Party withdraws its request for additional compensation) to replace such Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender by requiring such Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or
Defaulting Lender to assign its Loans, Notes and its Commitments hereunder to an Eligible Transferee reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, the Issuers and to Borrower, provided that: (i) all Obligations of Borrower owing to such
Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender being replaced (including such increased costs, but excluding principal and accrued interest on the Notes being assigned) shall be paid in full to such Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or
Defaulting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (ii) the replacement Eligible Transferee shall purchase the Loans, Notes and Commitments being assigned by paying to such Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender a price
equal to the principal amount thereof plus applicable reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, if any, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment Borrower, Administrative Agent,
the Issuers, such Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender and the replacement Eligible Transferee shall otherwise comply with Section 10.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing rights of Borrower under this section, however, Borrower
may not replace any Lender Party which seeks reimbursement for increased costs under any of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6, unless Borrower is at the same time replacing all Lender Parties which are then seeking such compensation. In connection
with any such replacement of a Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, Borrower shall pay all outstanding and unpaid costs and expenses due to such Lender Party, Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender hereunder (including costs
and expenses that would have been due to such Lender Party pursuant to Section 3.5 if such Lender Party’s, Non-Consenting Lender’s or Defaulting Lender’s Loans had been prepaid) at the time of such replacement. 

Section 3.9 Participants. If a Lender has assigned a participation in its Loans or commitment hereunder to another Person in
accordance with Section 10.6, any amount otherwise payable by Borrower to such Lender under Section 3.3 through 3.6 (in this section called “Increased Costs”), shall include that portion of the Increased Costs determined
by such Lender to be allocable to the amount of any interest or participation transferred by such Lender in such Lender’s Loan or commitments under this Agreement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of the Increased
Costs shall not exceed the amount that would be due if such Lender had not assigned any participation.

Restricted Person has taken all actions and procedures customarily taken in order to enter, for the purpose of conducting business or owning property, each jurisdiction outside the United States wherein the character of the properties owned or held
by it or the nature of the business transacted by it makes such actions and procedures desirable.

Section 5.6 Initial Financial Statements. Borrower has heretofore delivered to each Lender Party true, correct and complete copies
of the Initial Financial Statements. The Initial Financial Statements fairly present Borrower’s Consolidated financial position at the respective dates thereof and the Consolidated results of Borrower’s operations and Borrower’s

Person (other than industry-wide risks normally associated with the types of businesses conducted by Restricted Persons) necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in any material respect as of the date made or
deemed made. There is no fact known to any Restricted Person (other than industry-wide risks normally associated with the types of businesses conducted by Restricted Persons) that has not been disclosed to each Lender Party in writing which could
cause a Material Adverse Change. There are no statements or conclusions in any Engineering Report which are based upon or include misleading information or fail to take into account material information regarding the matters reported therein, it

capacity except as set forth on Item 5.22 of the Disclosure Schedule or the most recently delivered Engineering Report), no material agreements exist that are not cancelable on 60 days notice or less without penalty or detriment for the sale of
production from the Borrower’s or the Subsidiaries’ Hydrocarbons (including, without limitation, calls on or other rights to purchase, production, whether or not the same are currently being exercised) and that (a) pertain to the sale
of production at a fixed price and (b) have a maturity or expiry date of longer than six (6) months from the date hereof. 

Section 5.23 Hedging Transactions. Item 5.23 of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth, as of the Closing Date, a true and

or supplied) and the counterparty to each such agreement. 
 Section 5.24 Restriction on Liens. Neither the Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries is a party to any material agreement or arrangement or subject to any order, judgment, writ or decree, that either restricts or purports to restrict its ability to grant Liens to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on or in

deed of trust, security agreement, lease, franchise, agreement, contract or other instrument or obligation to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, in all material respects. 

Section 5.27 OFAC. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any director, officer, agent, employee or Affiliate of
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is currently subject to any material U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC, and the Borrower will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds from the Loans or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such
proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, for the purpose of financing the activities of any Person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.

year, prepared by Netherland Sewell and Associates, Inc., or other independent petroleum engineers chosen by Borrower and acceptable to the Required Lenders, concerning all oil and gas properties and interests owned by any Restricted Person which
are located in or offshore of the United States and which have attributable to them proved oil or gas reserves. This report shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent, shall take into account any “over-produced” status under gas
balancing arrangements, and shall contain information and analysis comparable in scope to that contained in the Initial Engineering Report. This report shall distinguish (or shall be delivered together with a certificate from an appropriate officer
of Borrower which distinguishes) those properties treated in the report which are Collateral from those properties treated in the report which are not Collateral. 

(e) By September 1 of each year, an engineering report dated as of July 1 of such year, prepared by Borrower’s
in-house petroleum engineering staff, concerning all oil and gas properties and interests owned by any Restricted Person which are located in or offshore of the United States and which have attributable to them proved oil or gas reserves. This
report shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent, shall take into account any “over-produced” status under gas balancing arrangements, and shall contain information and analysis comparable in scope to that contained in the Initial
Engineering Report. This report shall distinguish (or shall be delivered together with a certificate from an appropriate officer of Borrower which distinguishes) those properties treated in the report which are Collateral from those properties
treated in the report which are not Collateral. 
 (f) With the delivery of each Engineering Report, the Borrower shall
provide to each Lender Party, a certificate from the president or chief financial officer of Borrower certifying that, to the best of his knowledge and in all material respects: (i) the information contained in such Engineering Report and any
other information delivered in connection therewith is true and correct, (ii) Borrower and the Restricted Persons own good and defensible title to the oil and gas properties evaluated in such Engineering Report (in this section called the
“Covered Properties”) and are free of all Liens except for Liens permitted by Section 7.2, (iii) except as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate, 

  
 67 

 
on a net basis there are no gas imbalances, take or pay or other prepayments with respect to its oil and gas properties evaluated in such Engineering Report (other than those permitted by the

Properties has been sold since the date of the last Borrowing Base determination except as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate, which certificate shall list all of such properties sold and in such detail as reasonably required by
Administrative Agent, (v) attached to the certificate is a list of all Persons disbursing proceeds to Borrower or such Subsidiary from its oil and gas properties, and (vi) set forth on a schedule attached to the certificate is the present
discounted value of all Covered Properties that are part of the Mortgaged Properties, (vii) oil and gas properties which comprise at least eighty percent (80%) of the total value of the reserves which are included within the Covered
Properties are part of the Mortgaged Properties, and (viii) oil and gas properties which comprise at least eighty percent (80%) of the total value of the proved developed producing reserves which are included within the Covered Properties
are part of the Mortgaged Properties; provided that with respect to clauses (vii) and (viii) above, to the extent that the Borrower cannot make the certifications in (vii) and (viii) above and provided that the
Borrower in good faith believed that it was not in breach of Section 6.15 immediately prior to receiving a copy of such Engineering Report, the Borrower shall have a period of thirty (30) days following the delivery of such Engineering
Report to provide such additional mortgages, deeds of trust and other security instruments so that it can make such certifications, and the Borrower shall provide a certificate to Administrative Agent making such certifications upon delivering all
such additional mortgages, deeds of trust and other security instruments. 
 (g) [Reserved].

Administrative Agent (with sufficient copies for each Lender Party or otherwise in suitable form for posting onto the Electronic Platform) any information which Administrative Agent or any Lender may from time to time reasonably request in writing
concerning any covenant, provision or condition of the Loan Documents (including any information as may be required under the Patriot Act) or any matter in connection with Restricted Persons’ businesses and operations. 

  
 68 

 Each Restricted Person will permit representatives appointed by Administrative Agent (including independent
accountants, auditors, agents, attorneys, appraisers and any other Persons) to visit and inspect during normal business hours any of such Restricted Person’s property, including its books of account, other books and records, and any facilities
or other business assets, and to make extra copies therefrom and photocopies and photographs thereof, and to write down and record any information such representatives obtain, and each Restricted Person shall permit Administrative Agent or its
representatives to investigate and verify the accuracy of the information furnished to Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and to discuss all such matters with its officers, employees and representatives. 

Section 6.4 Notice of Material Events and Change of Address. Borrower will promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing (with
sufficient copies for each Lender Party or otherwise in suitable form for posting onto the Electronic Platform), stating that such notice is being given pursuant to this Agreement, of: 

(a) the occurrence of any Material Adverse Change, 

(b) the occurrence of any Default, 

(c) the acceleration of the maturity of any Indebtedness owed by any Restricted Person or of any default by any Restricted

(d) the occurrence of any Termination Event, 

(e) any matter for which notice is required under Section 6.12(d), 

(f) the filing of any suit or proceeding against any Restricted Person in which an adverse decision could cause a Material

of any of the foregoing. Borrower will also notify Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent’s counsel in writing at least twenty Business Days prior to the date that any Restricted Person changes its name or the location of its chief
executive office or principal place of business or the place where it keeps its books and records concerning the Collateral, furnishing with such notice any necessary financing statement amendments or requesting Administrative Agent and its counsel
to prepare the same. 

  
 69 

 Section 6.5 Maintenance of Properties. Each Restricted Person will maintain,
preserve, protect, and keep all Collateral and all other property used or useful in the conduct of its business in good condition in accordance with oil and gas industry standards and in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Laws,
and will from time to time make all repairs, renewals and replacements needed to enable the business and operations carried on in connection therewith to be promptly and advantageously conducted at all times. 

Section 6.6 Maintenance of Existence and Qualifications. Except as otherwise permitted in Section 7.4, each Restricted Person
will maintain and preserve its existence and its rights and franchises in full force and effect and will qualify to do business in all states or jurisdictions where required by applicable Law, except where the failure so to qualify will not cause a
Material Adverse Change.

contesting the validity thereof by appropriate proceedings (promptly instituted and diligently concluded) and has set aside on its books adequate reserves therefor, or to the extent any such failure to pay or discharge any of the foregoing would not
result in a Material Adverse Change. 
 Section 6.8 Insurance. Each Restricted Person will keep or cause to be kept insured by
financially sound and reputable insurers its property in accordance with the Insurance Schedule and will at all times maintain or cause to be maintained insurance covering such risks as are customarily carried, or self-insured, by businesses
similarly situated. All loss payable clauses or provisions in all policies of insurance maintained by the Borrower described in the Insurance Schedule shall be endorsed in favor of and made payable to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit
of the Lender Parties, as their interests may appear. In addition, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender Parties shall be named (a) as additional insured with a waiver of subrogation on all of the Restricted Persons’ liability
insurance policies maintained by the Borrower with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral, and (b) as loss payee on all of the Restricted Persons’ casualty and property insurance policies covering all or any portion of the

of a Casualty Event shall be made available by Administrative Agent to the Borrower for the purpose of repairing, restoring or otherwise replacing the affected property or asset. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent (i) shall have the right, for the benefit of the Lender Parties, to retain, and the Borrower hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender
Parties, any and all monies that may become payable under any such policies of insurance by reason of damage, loss or destruction of any Collateral for the Obligations or any part thereof, and (ii) may, at its election, either apply for the
benefit of the Lender Parties all or any part of the sums so collected in accordance with the Loan Documents toward payment of the Obligations, whether or not such Obligations are then due and payable, in such manner as the Administrative Agent may
elect, or release same to the applicable Restricted Person. 

  
 70 

 Section 6.9 Performance on Borrower’s Behalf. If any Restricted Person fails to
pay any taxes, insurance premiums, expenses, attorneys’ fees or other amounts it is required to pay under any Loan Document, Administrative Agent may pay the same. Borrower shall immediately reimburse Administrative Agent for any such payments

Section 6.10 [Reserved]. 

Section 6.11 Compliance with Agreements and Law. Each Restricted Person will perform all obligations it is required to perform
under the terms of each indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement, lease, franchise, agreement, contract or other instrument or obligation to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, in all respects, except
where the failure so to perform could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. Each Restricted Person will conduct its business and affairs in compliance with all Laws applicable thereto, in all material respects, except where
the failure so to conduct business and affairs could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

(b) The Restricted Persons will not Release any Hazardous Materials on, under or from any of their real properties, or permit
others to Release any Hazardous Materials on, under or from any of their real properties, in a manner that could reasonably be expected to result in liability in excess of $20,000,000 under Environmental Laws. 

(c) The Borrower will promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the occurrence thereof, notify the
Administrative Agent in writing of Borrower’s initial written receipt of a citation, civil or criminal penalty assessment or compliance order from any Tribunal or of a lawsuit from any Person with respect to an alleged violation of
Environmental Law or an alleged violation of a permit, license or other authorizations required under Environmental Law by the Restricted Persons for their respective businesses or with respect to an alleged Release of Hazardous Materials arising
out of the operations of any of the Restricted Persons (including any costs to investigate or remediate such Release) if the Borrower reasonably anticipates that any of such actions will result in liability to the Restricted Persons of $20,000,000
or more, not fully covered by insurance, subject to normal deductibles. 

  
 71 

 (d) The Borrower will provide to Administrative Agent environmental assessments
and tests in accordance with the most current version of applicable American Society of Testing Materials standards upon the reasonable request by the Administrative Agent upon an Event of Default under this Agreement (or as otherwise required to be

Person in the Loan Documents, the satisfaction of all conditions contained therein, and all other matters pertaining thereto. 

Section 6.14 Hedging Program. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3, the Borrower shall not assign, terminate or unwind
any of the Hedging Contracts reflected in the hedging positions set forth on a certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(a) or sell any of such Hedging Contracts if the effect of such action (when taken together with any other Hedging
Contracts executed contemporaneously with the taking of such action) would have the effect of canceling its positions under such Hedging Contracts unless such actions (a) are undertaken (i) with prior written notice to and approval from
(which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) the Administrative Agent and (ii) for the purpose of repositioning volumes for later or earlier months, for the purpose of eliminating production obligations in anticipation of
temporary production shutdowns due to storms or other force majeure events, for the purpose of eliminating production obligations while maintaining hedge volumes and minimum prices for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or for the purpose of
placing such obligations under other Hedging Contracts that provide higher minimum prices for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and (b) are in compliance with the restrictions set forth in Section 7.3. As of the date of any
determination or redetermination of the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall maintain hedging positions that are acceptable to the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably. 

  
 72

constitute at least eighty percent (80%) of the total value of the oil and gas reserves of the Restricted Persons and at least eighty percent (80%) of the total value of the proved developed producing reserves of the Restricted Persons (in
this section called the “Required Percentages”); provided that if, immediately following the delivery of an Engineering Report and only to the extent that the Borrower in good faith believed that it was not in breach of this
Section 6.15 immediately prior to receiving a copy of such Engineering Report, Borrower shall determine that the Mortgaged Properties do not constitute the Required Percentages of oil and gas reserves or proved developed producing reserves as
required in this Section 6.15, Borrower shall have the thirty (30) day period described in Section 6.2(f) to execute and deliver documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, granting to Administrative
Agent first perfected Liens subject to Permitted Liens on oil and gas properties that are not then part of the Mortgaged Properties, sufficient to cause the Mortgaged Properties to include the Required Percentages. In addition, Borrower will furnish
to Administrative Agent title due diligence in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent and will furnish all other documents and information relating to such properties as Administrative Agent may reasonably request. 

Section 6.16 Perfection and Protection of Security Interests and Liens. Borrower will from time to time deliver, and will cause
each other Restricted Person from time to time to deliver, to Administrative Agent any financing statements, continuation statements, extension agreements and other documents, properly completed and executed (and acknowledged when required) by
Restricted Persons in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, which Administrative Agent requests for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, or protecting any Liens or other rights in Collateral securing any Obligations. At the time
of recording of the Security Documents, counsel for Borrower shall conduct searches of the lien, judgment, litigation and UCC records of the counties and offices where such documents are filed and promptly upon receipt thereof from such offices
forward such searches to Administrative Agent’s counsel together with the original recorded Security Documents and file stamped copies of the related financing statements. 

Section 6.17 Bank Accounts; Offset. To secure the repayment of the Obligations Borrower hereby grants to each Lender Party a
security interest, a lien, and a right of offset, each of which shall be in addition to all other interests, liens, and rights of any Lender Party at common law, under the Loan Documents, or otherwise, and each of which shall be upon and against
(a) any and all moneys, securities or other property (and the proceeds therefrom) of Borrower now or hereafter held or received by or in transit to any Lender Party from or for the account of Borrower, whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge,
transmission, collection or otherwise, (b) any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) of Borrower with any Lender Party, and (c) any other credits and claims of Borrower at any time existing against any
Lender Party, including claims under certificates of deposit. At any time and from time to time after the occurrence of any Default, each Lender Party is hereby authorized to foreclose upon, or to offset against the Obligations then due and payable
(in either case without notice to Borrower), any and all items herein above referred to. The remedies of foreclosure and offset are separate and cumulative, and either may be exercised independently of the other without regard to procedures or
restrictions applicable to the other. 

  
 73 

 Section 6.18 Production Proceeds. Notwithstanding that, by the terms of the various
Security Documents, the grantors thereunder are and will be assigning to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender Parties all of the “Production Proceeds” (as defined therein and in this section collectively called
“Proceeds”) accruing to the property covered thereby, so long as no Default has occurred such Persons may continue to receive from the purchasers of production all such Proceeds, subject, however, to the Liens created under the
Security Documents, which Liens are hereby affirmed and ratified. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Administrative Agent and Lenders may exercise all rights and remedies granted under the Security Documents, including the right to obtain possession
of all Proceeds then held by Restricted Persons or to receive directly from the purchasers of production all other Proceeds. In no case shall any failure, whether purposed or inadvertent, by Administrative Agent or Lenders to collect directly any
such Proceeds constitute in any way a waiver, remission or release of any of their rights under the Security Documents, nor shall any release of any Proceeds by Administrative Agent or Lenders to Restricted Persons constitute a waiver, remission, or
release of any other Proceeds or of any rights of Administrative Agent or Lenders to collect other Proceeds thereafter. 
 Section 6.19
Guaranties of Borrower’s Subsidiaries; Joinder; Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. (a) Each Subsidiary of Borrower (other than a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary) shall, promptly upon request by Administrative Agent, execute and deliver to
Administrative Agent an absolute and unconditional guaranty of the timely repayment of the Obligations and the due and punctual performance of the obligations of Borrower hereunder, which guaranty shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent in
form and substance. Borrower will cause each of its Subsidiaries to deliver to Administrative Agent, simultaneously with its delivery of such a guaranty, written evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent and its counsel that such Subsidiary has
taken all action necessary to duly approve and authorize its execution, delivery and performance of such guaranty and any other documents which it is required to execute and to cause each of its Subsidiaries (other than Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries)
to execute a joinder to the Subsidiary Security Agreement (as defined in the Security Schedule) or otherwise provide a security agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent. 

(b) No Subsidiary of Borrower shall be a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary unless it is designated as such in the Disclosure Schedule as
of the Closing Date of this Agreement or otherwise designated as such in a written notice by Borrower to Administrative Agent in compliance with Section 6.19(b). Borrower may designate by written notification thereof to the Administrative
Agent, any Subsidiary, including a newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary, as a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary if (i) prior, and after giving effect, to such designation, neither a Default nor a Borrowing Base Deficiency would exist, and
(ii) such Subsidiary has assets of less than $5,000,000 as of the later to occur of the last day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Quarter and the date such Subsidiary was acquired or formed by Borrower. Borrower shall not permit the
aggregate principal amount of all Non-Recourse Debt of all Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries outstanding at any one time to exceed $50,000,000. Notwithstanding anything herein or in the other Loan Documents to the contrary, Liens granted in any collateral
by any Restricted Person shall not secure any obligation in respect of any Excluded Obligations in respect of a Hedging Contract. 

Section 6.20 Casualty and Condemnation. The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent promptly, and in any event within
fifteen (15) Business Days, after an Authorized Officer of the Borrower becoming aware of the occurrence, written notice of any Casualty Event to any Collateral or the commencement of any action or proceeding for the 

  
 74 

 
taking of any material portion of the Collateral or any part thereof or interest therein under power of eminent domain or by condemnation or similar proceeding, to the extent the fair market
value of such Collateral so affected, when aggregated with the fair market value of all other Collateral so affected by a Casualty Event occurring in the same calendar year, exceeds 5% of the Borrowing Base then in effect. 

Section 6.21 ERISA Information. As soon as available, and in any event, within 10 days after the Borrower obtains knowledge of any
of the following, the Borrower will furnish and will cause each ERISA Affiliate to promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent with sufficient copies to the Lenders (a) a written notice signed by an Authorized Officer describing the occurrence

such property or assets so sold or transferred attributed to them in the then current Borrowing Base (as determined by the Required Lenders), and the Borrower shall forthwith repay or prepay the Loans and/or cash collateralize all Letters of Credit
to the extent of any Borrowing Base Deficiency caused thereby from the proceeds of such sale, (v) Administrative Agent shall have received not less than ten (10) Business Days prior written notice of any such sale of assets or Capital

 86 

 
Agreement. Upon any such acceleration, any obligation of any Lender to make any further Loans hereunder and any obligation of any Issuer to issue Letters of Credit hereunder shall be permanently

Restricted Person, do either or both of the following: (1) terminate any obligation of Lender to make Loans hereunder and any obligation of any Issuer to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, and (2) declare any or all of the Obligations

Section 8.2 Remedies. If any Default shall occur and be continuing, each Lender Party may protect and enforce its rights under the
Loan Documents by any appropriate proceedings, including proceedings for specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in any Loan Document, and each Lender Party may enforce the payment of any Obligations due it or enforce any other
legal or equitable right which it may have. All rights, remedies and powers conferred upon Lender Parties under the Loan Documents shall be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or powers available under the Loan
Documents or at Law or in equity. 
 ARTICLE IX - Administrative Agent and Issuers 

Section 9.1 Appointment and Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Lender Party hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative
Agent, and Administrative Agent hereby undertakes, to receive payments of principal, interest and other amounts due hereunder as specified herein and to take all other actions and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically
delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto. The relationship of Administrative Agent to the other Lender Parties is only that of one commercial lender acting as
administrative Administrative Agent for others, and nothing in the Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute Administrative Agent, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a trustee or other fiduciary
for any Lender Party or holder of any of the Notes or of any participation therein nor to impose on Administrative Agent duties and obligations other than those expressly provided for in the Loan Documents. The provisions of this Article are solely
for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers, and neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the
term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of
any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. With respect to any matters not expressly provided for in the Loan
Documents and any matters which the Loan Documents place within the discretion of 

  
 87 

 
Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, and it may request instructions from Lenders with respect to any such matter, in
which case it shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected and free from liability to all Lender Parties in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of Required Lenders (including itself),
provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes it to a risk of personal liability that it considers unreasonable or which is contrary to the Loan Documents or to applicable Law
including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any
bankruptcy or insolvency law. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents,
have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity. Upon receipt by Administrative Agent from Borrower of any communication calling for action on the part of Lenders or upon notice from any other Lender Party to Administrative Agent of any Default or Event of Default,
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each other Lender Party thereof. 
 Section 9.2 Exculpation, Administrative Agent’s
Reliance, Etc. (a) Neither Administrative Agent nor any Issuer nor any of their directors, officers, agents, attorneys, or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with the Loan
Documents, INCLUDING THEIR NEGLIGENCE OF ANY KIND, except that each shall be liable for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent and Issuers (a) may treat the
payee of any Note as the holder thereof until Administrative Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof in accordance with this Agreement, signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent; (b) may
consult with legal counsel (including counsel for Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of
such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any other Lender Party and shall not be responsible to any other Lender Party for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with the
Loan Documents; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Loan Documents on the part of any Restricted Person or to inspect the property
(including the books and records) of any Restricted Person; (e) shall not be responsible to any other Lender Party for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Loan Document or any
instrument or document furnished in connection therewith; (f) may rely upon the representations and warranties of each Restricted Person and the Lender Parties in exercising its powers hereunder; (g) shall incur no liability under or in
respect of the Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (including any telecopy) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons. 

  
 88 

 (b) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or
inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in
connection herewith or therewith or (iii) the agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, 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 the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any
Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuer. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,
certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise
authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In
determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuer, the Administrative
Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such
Letter of Credit. 
 Section 9.3 Credit Decisions. (a) Each Lender Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Other Agents or any other Lender Party or any of its Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Other Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party or any of their Affiliates 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. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or
observance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or to inspect the properties or books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries. Except for notices,
reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other
information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into the possession of such Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that Cadwalader,
Wickersham & Taft LLP is acting in this transaction as special counsel to the Administrative Agent only. Each other party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan
Documents and the matters contemplated therein. 

  
 89 

 Section 9.4 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent (to
the extent not reimbursed by Borrower within ten (10) days after demand) from and against such Lender’s Aggregate Percentage Share of any and all liabilities, obligations, claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, actions, judgments,
suits, settlements, costs, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable fees of attorneys, accountants, experts and advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever (in this section collectively called “liabilities and costs”) which to
any extent (in whole or in part) may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Administrative Agent growing out of, resulting from or in any other way associated with any of the Collateral, the Loan Documents and the transactions and events
(including the enforcement thereof) at any time associated therewith or contemplated therein (including any Environmental Claims or violation or noncompliance with any Environmental Laws by any Person or any liabilities or duties of any Person with
respect to the presence or Release of Hazardous Materials found in or released into the environment). Each Lender agrees to indemnify Issuers (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower within ten (10) days after demand) from and against such
Lender’s Aggregate Percentage Share of any and all liabilities and costs which to any extent (in whole or in part) may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Issuer growing out of, resulting from or in any other way associated
with the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Approved Counterparty for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under any Loan Document, or in connection therewith; the Administrative
Agent shall not be responsible for any recitals or warranties herein or under any Loan Document, nor for the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of any Loan Document, nor for the creation, perfection or priority of any Liens
purported to be created by any of the Loan Documents, or the validity, genuineness, enforceability, existence, value or sufficiency of any collateral security. Each Approved Counterparty agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by Borrower within ten (10) days after demand) from and against such Approved Counterparty’s pro rata share of any and all liabilities and costs arising from or in connection with the circumstances described in the foregoing
sentence. 
 THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN
PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ISSUER, 

provided only that no Lender shall be obligated under this section to indemnify Administrative Agent and any Issuer for that portion, if any, of any
liabilities and costs which is proximately caused by Administrative Agent’s or such Issuer’s own individual gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final judgment. Cumulative of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to
reimburse Administrative Agent and such Issuer promptly upon demand for such Lender’s Aggregate Percentage Share of any costs and expenses to be paid to Administrative Agent or such Issuer by Borrower under Section 10.4(a) to the extent
that Administrative Agent or such Issuer is not timely reimbursed for such expenses by Borrower as provided in such section. As used in this section the terms “Administrative Agent” and “Issuer” shall refer not only to the Person
designated as such in Section 1.1 but also to each director, officer, agent, attorney, employee, representative and Affiliate of such Person. 

  
 90 

 Section 9.5 Rights as Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, Administrative Agent and
each Issuer shall have the same rights, powers, and obligations as any Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Administrative Agent or Issuer, as applicable. Administrative Agent or any Issuer and their Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, act as Trustee under indentures of, lend money to, own securities of, act as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Restricted Person or their Affiliates, all as if it were
not Administrative Agent or an Issuer hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other Lender. 
 Section 9.6 Sharing
of Set-Offs and Other Payments. Each Lender Party agrees that if it shall, whether through the exercise of rights under Security Documents or rights of banker’s lien, set off, or counterclaim against Borrower or otherwise, obtain payment of
a portion of the aggregate Obligations owed to it which, taking into account all distributions made by Administrative Agent under Section 3.1, causes such Lender Party to have received more than it would have received had such payment been
received by Administrative Agent and distributed pursuant to Section 3.1, then (a) it shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased and shall be obligated to purchase interests in the Obligations as necessary to cause all Lender Parties
to share all payments as provided for in Section 3.1, and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that Administrative Agent and all Lender Parties share all payments of Obligations as
provided in Section 3.1; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall in any way affect the right of any Lender Party to obtain payment (whether by exercise of rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim or
otherwise) of indebtedness other than the Obligations. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any holder of any such interest or other participation in the Obligations, whether or not acquired pursuant to the
foregoing arrangements, may to the fullest extent permitted by Law exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off, or counterclaim as fully as if such holder were a holder of the Obligations in the amount of such interest or other
participation. If all or any part of any funds transferred pursuant to this section is thereafter recovered from the seller under this section which received the same, the purchase provided for in this section shall be deemed to have been rescinded
to the extent of such recovery, together with interest, if any, if interest is required pursuant to Tribunal order to be paid on account of the possession of such funds prior to such recovery. 

Section 9.7 Investments. Whenever Administrative Agent in good faith determines that it is uncertain about how to distribute to
Lender Parties any funds which it has received, or whenever Administrative Agent in good faith determines that there is any dispute among Lender Parties about how such funds should be distributed, Administrative Agent may choose to defer
distribution of the funds which are the subject of such uncertainty or dispute. If Administrative Agent in good faith believes that the uncertainty or dispute will not be promptly resolved, or if Administrative Agent is otherwise required to invest
funds pending distribution to Lender Parties, Administrative Agent shall invest such funds pending distribution, and all interest on any such investment shall be distributed upon the distribution of such investment and in the same proportion and to
the same Persons as such investment; provided that Administrative Agent shall not be liable to Lender Parties for any loss on such investment except for its gross negligence or 

  
 91 

 
willful misconduct (BUT INCLUDING FOR ITS NEGLIGENCE), as determined in a final judgment. All moneys received by Administrative Agent for distribution to Lender Parties (other than to the
Person who is Administrative Agent in its separate capacity as a Lender) shall be held by Administrative Agent pending such distribution solely as Administrative Agent for such Lender Parties, and Administrative Agent shall have no equitable title
to any portion thereof. 
 Section 9.8 Benefit of Article IX. The provisions of this Article (other than the following
Section 9.9) are intended solely for the benefit of Lender Parties, and no Restricted Person shall be entitled to rely on any such provision or assert any such provision in a claim or defense against any Lender Party. Lender Parties may waive
or amend such provisions as they desire without any notice to or consent of Borrower or any Restricted Person. 
 Section 9.9
Resignation. Administrative Agent or any Issuer may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. Each such notice shall set forth the date of such resignation. Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a
successor Administrative Agent or, if such resigning Issuer is the sole issuer hereunder, Issuer. A successor must be appointed for any retiring Administrative Agent (or a retiring Issuer if such Issuer is the sole Issuer hereunder), and such
Administrative Agent’s (or Issuer’s) resignation shall become effective when such successor accepts such appointment. If, within thirty days after the date of the retiring Administrative Agent’s (or Issuer’s) resignation, no
successor Administrative Agent (or Issuer, if such Issuer is the sole Issuer hereunder) has been appointed and has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Administrative Agent (or Issuer) may appoint a successor Administrative Agent (or
Issuer), which shall be a financial institution organized under the Laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Issuer hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent
or Issuer, the retiring Administrative Agent or Issuer shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s or Issuer’s resignation hereunder the
provisions of this Article IX shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Issuer under the Loan Documents. 

Section 9.10 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more subagents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such subagent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such subagent and to the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and any such subagent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with syndication as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any subagents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in
a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such subagents. 

Section 9.11 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or
insolvency law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit Outstandings shall then be due and payable as herein

  
 92 

 
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (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, Letter of Credit Outstandings 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, the
Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts
due the Lenders, the Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Article III, Section 10.4 and any other provisions under the Loan Documents regarding indemnification by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) 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 and each Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuers, 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 Article III, Section 10.4
and any other provisions under the Loan Documents regarding indemnification by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 ARTICLE X -
Miscellaneous 
 Section 10.1 Waivers and Amendments; Acknowledgments. 

(a) Waivers and Amendments. No failure or delay (whether by course of conduct or otherwise) by any Lender Party in
exercising any right, power or remedy which such Lender Party may have under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, power or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any Lender Party of any such
right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or remedy. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document (other than any Hedging Contract, which may be amended pursuant to the terms thereof) and
no consent to any departure therefrom shall ever be effective unless it is in writing and signed as provided below in this section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purposes for which
given and to the extent specified in such writing. No notice to or demand on any Restricted Person shall in any case of itself entitle any Restricted Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. This Agreement
and the other Loan Documents set forth the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and therein and supersede all prior discussions and understandings with respect to the subject matter

  
 93 

 
hereof and thereof, and no waiver, consent, release, modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be valid or effective against any party hereto
unless the same is in writing and signed by (i) if such party is Borrower, by Borrower, (ii) if such party is Administrative Agent, by such party, (iii) if such party is a Lender, by such Lender or by Administrative Agent on behalf of
Lenders with the written consent of Majority Lenders (which consent has already been given as to the termination of the Loan Documents as provided in Section 10.14 and which consent shall be deemed given by any Lender that executes any such
waiver, consent, release, modification or amendment) and (iv) if such party is an Issuer, by such Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, Administrative Agent shall not, without the prior consent of the
affected Lender, execute and deliver on behalf of such Lender any waiver or amendment which would: (1) waive any of the conditions specified in Article IV (provided that Administrative Agent may in its discretion withdraw any request it
has made under Section 4.2(e)), (2) increase the Commitment of such Lender or subject such Lender to any additional obligations, (3) reduce any fees payable to such Lender or Issuer hereunder, or the principal of, or interest on, such
Lender’s Note, (4) postpone any date fixed for any payment of any such fees, principal or interest payable to such Lender or Issuer, (5) increase the Facility Amount or the Aggregate Commitments of the Lenders to an amount in either
case in excess of $1,200,000,000 or increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments or amend the definition herein of “Majority Lenders” or “Required Lenders” or otherwise change the aggregate amount of applicable
Percentage Shares which is required for Administrative Agent, Lenders or any of them to take any particular action under the Loan Documents, (6) release Borrower from its obligation to pay such Lender’s Note, (7) release all or
substantially all of the Collateral or (8) amend this Section 10.1, or (9) amend Section 9.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) to the extent that the Borrower or any Restricted Person transfers, sells or otherwise assigns
any Collateral in accordance with the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is authorized to release the Administrative Agent’s and Lender Parties’ Liens on such Collateral without any further consent by any of the Lender Parties;
(B) any amendment of the definition of “Initial Availability Amount” or any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination of any provision with respect to any determination or redetermination of the Borrowing Base, or in
connection with any matter directly relating to the Borrowing Base (including matters in respect of any Borrowing Base Deficiency and in respect of the relevant provisions of Section 7.5 relating to the Borrowing Base), shall only require the
consent of the Revolving Loan Lenders whose Revolving Loan Percentage Shares equal or exceed sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) (except that any amendment that increases the Initial Availability Amount or then current Borrowing Base shall
require the consent of all of the Revolving Loan Lenders); (C) no waiver, consent, release, modification or amendment of or supplement to any Hedging Contract, fee letter between any Restricted Person or any Arranger or Administrative Agent, or
any letter of credit application shall be valid or effective against any party thereto without the consent of such party, and any such documents may be waived, consented to, released, modified or amended in accordance with the terms of such
documents; and (D) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders, if the consent of Required Lenders is obtained, but 

  
 94 

 
the consent of the other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then so
long as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at the Borrower’s request the Administrative Agent, or one or more Eligible Transferees, shall have the right (but not the obligation and in each case with the Administrative
Agent’s consent and in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, sell and assign to the
Administrative Agent or such Person, all of the Loans, Notes and Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lenders in accordance with Section 3.8, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment and Acceptance.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that any such amendment or waiver (A) that would increase or extend the term
of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount
of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender or
(B) requiring the consent of all Lenders or each adversely affected Lender that affects such Defaulting Lender differently than all other Lenders or all other adversely affected Lenders, as the case may be, shall require the consent of such
Defaulting Lender 
 (b) Acknowledgments and Admissions. Borrower hereby represents, warrants, acknowledges and admits that
(i) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (ii) it has made an independent decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a

any Restricted Person and any Lender Party, (vii) Administrative Agent is not Borrower’s Administrative Agent, but Administrative Agent for the Lender Parties in the capacity described in the second sentence of Section 9.1,

any of the foregoing, Borrower is not relying upon any representation or covenant by any Lender Party, or any representative thereof, and no such representation or covenant has been made, that any Lender Party will, at the time of an Event of
Default or Default, or at any 

  
 95 

 
other time, waive, negotiate, discuss, or take or refrain from taking any action permitted under the Loan Documents with respect to any such Event of Default or Default or any other provision of
the Loan Documents, and (x) all Lender Parties have relied upon the truthfulness of the acknowledgments in this section in deciding to execute and deliver this Agreement and to become obligated hereunder. 

(c) Representation by Lenders. Each Lender hereby represents that it will acquire its Note for its own account in the
ordinary course of its commercial lending business; however, the disposition of such Lender’s property shall at all times be and remain within its control and, in particular and without limitation, such Lender may sell or otherwise transfer its
Notes, Loans, Letters of Credit and Commitments, any participation interest or other interest in its Notes, Loans, Letters of Credit or Commitments, or any of its other rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, but subject to the terms and
provisions hereof, including Section 10.6.

THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 

Section 10.2 Survival of Agreements; Cumulative Nature. All of Restricted Persons’ various representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements in the Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the performance hereof and thereof, including the making or granting of the Loans and the delivery of the
Notes and the other Loan Documents, and shall further survive until all of the Obligations are paid in full to each Lender Party and all of Lender Parties’ obligations to Borrower are terminated. All statements and agreements contained in any
certificate or other instrument delivered by any Restricted Person to any Lender Party under any Loan Document shall be deemed representations and warranties by Borrower or agreements and covenants of Borrower under this Agreement. The
representations, warranties, indemnities, and covenants made by Restricted Persons in the Loan Documents, and the rights, powers, and privileges granted to Lender Parties in the Loan Documents, are cumulative, and, except for expressly specified
waivers and consents, no Loan Document shall be construed in the context of another to diminish, nullify, or otherwise reduce the benefit to any Lender Party of any such representation, warranty, indemnity, covenant, right, power or privilege. In
particular and without limitation, no exception set out in this Agreement to any representation, warranty, indemnity, or covenant herein contained shall apply to any similar representation, warranty, indemnity, or covenant contained in any other
Loan Document, and each such similar representation, warranty, indemnity, or covenant shall be subject only to those exceptions which are expressly made applicable to it by the terms of the various Loan Documents. 

  
 96 

 Section 10.3 Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other
communications required or permitted under any Loan Document shall be in writing, unless otherwise specifically provided in such Loan Document (provided that Administrative Agent may give telephonic notices to the other Lender Parties), and
shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by telecopy, by delivery service with proof of delivery, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, to Borrower and Restricted Persons at the
address of Borrower specified on the signature pages hereto and to each Lender Party at its address specified in the Lenders Schedule as its lending offices for ABR Loans (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular Person
whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given (a) in the case of personal delivery or delivery service, as of the date of first attempted delivery during normal business hours at the
address provided herein, (b) in the case of telecopy, upon receipt, or (c) in the case of registered or certified United States mail, three days after deposit in the mail; provided, however, that no Borrowing Notice shall
become effective until actually received by Administrative Agent. 
 Section 10.4 Payment of Expenses; Indemnity. 

(a) Payment of Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, Borrower will
promptly (and in any event, within 30 days after any invoice or other statement or notice) pay: (i) all transfer, stamp, mortgage, documentary or other similar taxes, assessments or charges levied by any governmental or revenue authority in
respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to herein or therein, (ii) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Administrative Agent (including attorneys’ fees,
consultants’ fees and engineering fees, travel costs and miscellaneous expenses) in connection with (1) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and any and all consents, waivers, amendments or
modifications or other documents or instruments relating thereto, (2) the filing, recording, refiling and re-recording of any Loan Documents and any other documents or instruments or further assurances required to be filed or recorded or
refiled or re-recorded by the terms of any Loan Document, (3) the borrowings hereunder and other action reasonably required in the course of administration hereof, (4) monitoring or confirming (or preparation or negotiation of any document
related to) Borrower’s compliance with any covenants or conditions contained in this Agreement or in any Loan Document, and (iii) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of any Lender Party (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, consultants’ fees and accounting fees) in connection with the defense or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents (including this section and including proceedings in bankruptcy) or the defense of any Lender Party’s
exercise of its rights thereunder (including proceedings in bankruptcy). In addition to the foregoing, until all Obligations have been paid in full, Borrower will also pay or reimburse Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses of Administrative Agent or its agents or employees in connection with the continuing administration of the Loans and the related due diligence of Administrative Agent, including travel and miscellaneous expenses and fees and expenses of
Administrative Agent’s outside counsel, reserve engineers and consultants engaged in connection with the Loan Documents. 

  
 97 

 (b) Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender Party, upon
demand, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, actions, judgments, suits, settlements, costs, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable fees of attorneys, accountants, experts and
advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever (in this section collectively called “liabilities and costs”) which to any extent (in whole or in part) may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Lender Party by the Borrower or any
Restricted Person or by any third party growing out of, resulting from or in any other way associated with any of the Collateral, the Loan Documents and the transactions and events (including the enforcement or defense thereof) at any time
associated therewith or contemplated therein (including any Environmental Claims or violation or noncompliance with any Environmental Laws by any Restricted Person or any liabilities or duties of any Restricted Person or any Lender Party with
respect to the presence or Release of Hazardous Materials found in or released into the environment). For the avoidance of doubt, any indemnification relating to Taxes shall be covered exclusively by Section 3.6 and shall not be covered by this
Section 10.4. 
 THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE
OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY ANY LENDER PARTY, 

provided only that no Lender Party shall be entitled under this section to receive indemnification for that portion, if any, of any liabilities and costs
which is proximately caused by its own individual gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final judgment. If any Person (including Borrower or any of its Affiliates) ever alleges such gross negligence or willful misconduct by any
Lender Party, the indemnification provided for in this section shall nonetheless be paid upon demand, subject to later adjustment or reimbursement, until such time as a court of competent jurisdiction enters a final judgment as to the extent and
effect of the alleged gross negligence or willful misconduct. As used in this section the term “Lender Parties” shall refer not only to the Persons designated as such in Section 1.1 but also to each director, officer, agent, attorney,
employee, representative and Affiliate of such Persons. 
 Section 10.5 Joint and Several Liability; Parties in Interest. All
Obligations which are incurred by two or more Restricted Persons shall be their joint and several obligations and liabilities. All grants, covenants and agreements contained in the Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties
thereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Restricted Person may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties or obligations under any Loan Document without the prior consent
of Required Lenders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither Borrower nor any Affiliates of Borrower shall directly or indirectly purchase or otherwise retire any Obligations owed to any Lender nor will any Lender accept any offer to
do so, unless each Lender shall have received substantially the same offer with respect to the same Aggregate Percentage Share of the Obligations owed to it. If Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower at any time purchases some but less than all of
the Obligations owed to all Lender Parties, such purchaser shall not be entitled to any rights of any Lender Party under the Loan Documents unless and until Borrower or its Affiliates have purchased all of the Obligations. 

  
 98 

 Section 10.6 Assignments. 

(a) Participations. 

(A) Any Lender may sell a participation interest in its commitments hereunder or any of its rights under its Loans or under the
Loan Documents to any Person, provided that the agreement between such Lender and such participant must at all times provide: (i) that such participation exists only as a result of the agreement between such participant and such Lender
and that such transfer does not give such participant any right to vote as a Lender or any other direct claims or rights against any Person other than such Lender, (ii) that such participant is not entitled to payment from any Restricted Person
under any of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6 of amounts in excess of those payable to such Lender under such sections (determined without regard to the sale of such participation), and (iii) unless such participant is an Affiliate of such
Lender, that such participant shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take any action under any Loan Document or to obtain the consent of such participant prior to taking any action under any Loan Document, except for actions which would
require the consent of all Lenders under the next-to-last sentence of subsection (a) of Section 10.1. No Lender selling such a participation shall, as between the other parties hereto and such Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations
hereunder as a result of the sale of such participation. Each Lender which sells any such participation to any Person (other than an Affiliate of such Lender) shall give prompt notice thereof to Administrative Agent and Borrower. 

(B) 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 commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in
registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the Internal Revenue Service, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and
solely to the Internal Revenue Service. 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. 
 (b) Assignments. Except for sales of
participations under the immediately preceding subsection (a), no Lender shall make any assignment or transfer of any kind of its commitments or obligations to participate in Letters of Credit or any of its rights under its Loans or under the Loan
Documents, except for assignments to an Eligible Transferee, and then only if such assignment is made in accordance with the following requirements: 

  
 99 

 (i) In the case of an assignment of Revolving Loans and Revolving Loan
Commitments, (1) each such assignment shall apply to all Revolving Loans and commitments to participate in Letters of Credit owing to and commitments to participate in Letters of Credit by the assignor and to the unused portion of the assignor
Revolving Loan Commitments and (2) immediately after giving effect to such assignment, the assignor’s Revolving Loan Commitment shall not be less than $5,000,000 and the assignee’s Revolving Loan Commitment shall equal or exceed
$5,000,000 (unless such assignor is assigning all of its Revolving Loan Commitments and Revolving Loans or unless such assignment is to an Affiliate of such assignor or an Approved Fund administered or managed by such assignor or an Affiliate of
such assignor); provided that the foregoing requirements (1) and (2) may be waived by a writing signed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuer and (so long as no Default or Event of Default is continuing) the Borrower. 

(ii) The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in
the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, appropriately completed, together with the Note subject to such assignment and a processing fee payable to Administrative Agent of $3,500. Upon such execution, delivery, and payment and upon the
satisfaction of the conditions set out in such Assignment and Acceptance, then (A) Borrower shall, if requested by the assignor and/or assignee, issue new Revolving Loan Notes, to such assignor and assignee in exchange for the return of the old
Notes to Borrower, and (B) as of the “Effective Date” specified in such Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and a Lender hereunder and Administrative Agent shall thereafter deliver or make
available to Borrower and each Lender one or more schedules showing the revised Percentage Shares of all other Lenders. 

(iii) Each assignee Lender shall (to the extent it has not already done so) provide Administrative Agent and Borrower with the
documentation referred to in Section 3.6(e). 
 (iv) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall
be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing
Persons described in this clause (iv). 
 (v) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a
natural Person. 

  
 100 

 (vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of
rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the
Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with
the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to
(x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuer and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its
full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Percentage Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall
become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

(c) Nothing contained in this section shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from assigning or pledging all or any portion of its
Loans and Note to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or to any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender or to one
of its Affiliates or as otherwise required by applicable Law; provided that no such assignment or pledge shall relieve such Lender from its obligations hereunder. 

(d) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each assignee Lender thereunder will be confirming to and
agreeing with Borrower, Administrative Agents, each Issuer and each other Lender hereunder that such assignee understands and agrees to the terms hereof, including Article IX hereof. 

(e) Subject to acceptance thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 Lender thereunder 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 10.4 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior
to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale
by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section. 

  
 101 

 Section 10.7 Confidentiality. Each Lender Party agrees that it will follow its
customary procedures to keep confidential any proprietary information given to it by any Restricted Person, provided, however, that this restriction shall not apply to information which (a) has at the time in question entered the
public domain, (b) is required to be disclosed by Law (whether valid or invalid) of any Tribunal or is disclosed pursuant to Section 10.18, (c) is disclosed to any Lender Party’s Affiliates, auditors, attorneys, agents or to any
credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (d) is furnished to any other Lender Party or to any purchaser or prospective purchaser of participations or other interests in any Loan or Loan Document or to any direct,
indirect, actual or prospective counterparty (and its advisor) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the obligations under this Agreement (provided each such purchaser, prospective purchaser, counterparty or
prospective counterparty first agrees to hold such information in confidence on the terms provided in this section), (e) is furnished to S&P or Moody’s or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency in
connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender Party or with respect to any Restricted Person, or (f) is disclosed in the course of enforcing its rights and remedies during the existence of an Event of Default; provided,
however, that this obligation of confidence shall not apply to, and each of Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties (and each Person employed or retained by them who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving,
structuring or administering the Loans) may disclose to any Tribunal, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and all materials of any kind
(including opinions or other tax analyses) related thereto that are or have been provided to the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party relating to such tax treatment or tax structure. 

Section 10.8 Governing Law; Submission to Process. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH PURPOSES SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK). Except to the extent that the law of another jurisdiction is expressly elected in a Loan
Document, the Loan Documents shall be deemed contracts and instruments made under and governed by the laws of the State of New York (including for such purposes Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York). In
any legal proceeding relating to the Loan Documents or the Obligations, each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Harris County, Texas and agrees and
consents that service of process may be made upon it in any legal proceeding relating to the Loan Documents or the Obligations by any means allowed under applicable Law. 

Section 10.9 Limitation on Interest. Lender Parties, Restricted Persons and any other parties to the Loan Documents intend to
contract in strict compliance with applicable usury Law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a
contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable Law from time to time in 

  
 102 

 
effect. Neither any Restricted Person nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned
interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully charged under applicable Law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this section shall control over all other
provisions of the Loan Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. Lender Parties expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Obligation
is accelerated. If (a) the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (b) any Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum, or (c) any
Lender or any other holder of any or all of the Obligations shall otherwise collect moneys which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the Obligations to an amount in excess of that
permitted to be charged by applicable Law then in effect, then all sums determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Obligations
or, at such Lender’s or holder’s option, promptly returned to US Borrower or the other payor thereof upon such determination. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum
amount permitted under applicable Law, Lender Parties and Restricted Persons (and any other payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under applicable Law, characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than
as interest, exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the instruments evidencing the Obligations in accordance with the
amounts outstanding from time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect under applicable Law in order to lawfully charge the maximum amount of interest permitted under applicable Law. As used in this
section the term “applicable Law” means the Laws of the State of New York or the Laws of the United States of America, whichever Laws allow the greater interest, as such Laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in
the future. 
 Section 10.10 Termination: Limited Survival. In its sole and absolute discretion Borrower may at any time that no
Obligations are owing elect in a written notice delivered to Administrative Agent to terminate this Agreement. Upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such a notice, if no Obligations are then owing this Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall
thereupon be terminated and the parties thereto released from all prospective obligations thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, any waivers or admissions made by any Restricted Person in any Loan Document, any
Obligations under any of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6, and any obligations which any Person may have to indemnify or compensate any Lender Party shall survive any termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. At the request and
expense of Borrower, Administrative Agent shall prepare and execute all necessary instruments to reflect and effect such termination of the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to execute all such instruments on behalf of all
Lenders, without the joinder of or further action by any Lender. 
 Section 10.11 Severability. If any term or provision of any
Loan Document shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable all other terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall nevertheless remain effective and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. 

  
 103 

 Section 10.12 Counterparts; Electronic Execution of Assignments. This Agreement may
be separately executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to constitute one and the same Agreement. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect,
validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

Section 10.13 Waiver of Jury Trial, Punitive Damages, etc. Borrower and each Lender Party hereby knowingly, voluntarily,
intentionally, and irrevocably (a) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation based hereon, or directly or indirectly at any time arising out of, under or in
connection with the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby or associated therewith, before or after maturity; (b) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by Law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any such
litigation any “Special Damages”, as defined below, (c) certifies that no party hereto nor any representative or agent or counsel for any party hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, or implied that such party would not, in
the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers, and (d) acknowledges that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by, among other things,
the mutual waivers and certifications contained in this section. As used in this section, “Special Damages” includes all special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages (regardless of how named), but does not include any payments or
funds which any party hereto has expressly promised to pay or deliver to any other party hereto. 
 Section 10.14 Release of
Collateral; Collateral Matters; Hedging. 
 (a) The Lender Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its
option and in its discretion, 
 (i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under
any Loan Document (x) upon Security Termination or (y) subject to Section 10.1, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; and 

(ii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the
holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.1(e); and 

  
 104 

 (b) Administrative Agent and each Lender Party hereby agree that so long as no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent shall release from the Security Documents, upon written request by Borrower and at Borrower’s expense, interests in oil and gas properties sold or otherwise
transferred by any Restricted Person in compliance with Section 7.5, upon receipt of the indefeasible prepayment of the Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings required in connection with such sale, if any. Upon request by the Administrative
Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Restricted Person from its obligations under
the Security Documents pursuant to this Section 10.14. 
 (c) The benefit of the Security Documents and the provisions
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral shall also extend to and be available on a pro rata basis to each Approved Counterparty in respect of any obligations under a Hedging Contract with any Restricted Person;
provided that such Hedging Contract was entered into (i) while such Approved Counterparty was a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or (ii) prior to the Closing Date with a Person that upon the effectiveness of this Credit Agreement
was an Approved Counterparty. For the avoidance of doubt, the benefits of the Security Documents and the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will not extend to Hedging Contracts entered into between a Restricted Person and a
counterparty if such counterparty was not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender at the time such Hedging Contract was consummated (provided that, Hedging Contracts consummated prior to the Closing Date with a Person that upon the effectiveness of
this Credit Agreement became an Approved Counterparty shall be deemed to have been entered into while such Approved Counterparty was a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender). No Approved Counterparty shall have any voting or consent right under any
Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under a Hedging Contract. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any
provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, in no event is any Building or Mobile Home included in the definition of “Mortgaged Properties” or the definition of “Collateral” and no Building or Mobile
Home is hereby encumbered by any security interest or lien granted pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. As used herein, “Flood Insurance Regulations” means (a) the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 as now or
hereafter in effect or any successor statute thereto, (b) the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 as now or hereafter in effect or any successor statue thereto, (c) the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 (amending 42 USC 4001,
et seq.), as the same may be amended or recodified from time to time and (d) the Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2004 and any regulations promulgated thereunder. 

Section 10.15 Amendment and Restatement. On the Closing Date, this Agreement shall be deemed to restate and amend the Existing
Credit Agreement in its entirety, whereupon all of the terms and provisions hereof shall supersede the terms and conditions thereof. The parties hereto further agree that, on the Closing Date, this Agreement and the Notes shall serve to extend,
renew and continue, but not to extinguish or novate, the Existing Notes and the 

  
 105 

 
corresponding loans and to amend, restate and supersede, but not to extinguish or cause to be novated the Indebtedness under, the Existing Credit Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees that, on the
Closing Date, (a) the Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and (b) all accrued and unpaid fees under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be outstanding under and
payable by this Agreement; provided that changes in the Percentage Shares, interest rates, or fee rates shall not change the amounts then accrued and owing to each Lender Party under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the
Closing Date. 
 Section 10.16 Other Agents. None of the Persons identified in this Agreement as the “Arrangers” or
“Co-Bookrunners” or the “Syndication Agent” or the “Co-Documentation Agents” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document other than
(a) except in the case of the Arrangers, those applicable to all Lenders as such or (b) as expressly provided for herein or therein. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Other Agents shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Restricted Person or any Lender Party. Each of the Lender Parties and Borrower, on behalf of itself and the other Restricted Persons, acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Other Agents or any of
the other Lender Parties in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking any action hereunder or under the Loan Documents. 

Section 10.17 USA Patriot Act Notice. The Administrative Agent hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of
the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and its partners, which includes the
names and addresses of the Borrower and its partners and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent to identify the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and partners in accordance with the Patriot Act. This notice is given in accordance
with the requirements of the Patriot Act and is effective as to Administrative Agent and each Lender Party. 
 Section 10.18 Posting
of Approved Electronic Communications. (a) In addition to providing the Administrative Agent with all originals or copies of all Communications (as defined below) in the manner specified by Section 10.3, Borrower hereby also agrees,
unless directed otherwise by the Administrative Agent or unless the electronic mail address referred to below has not been provided by the Administrative Agent to Borrower, that it will, or will cause its Subsidiaries to, provide to the
Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent or to the Lender Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial
and other reports, certificates and other information materials (all such communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium that is properly
identified in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to an electronic mail address as directed by the Administrative Agent. 

(b) Borrower further agrees that (i) the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lender Parties
by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Electronic Platform”) and (ii) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e.,
Lenders that 

  
 106 

 
do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Borrower hereby agrees that (A) all
Communications that are to be made available to Public Lenders 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;
(B) by marking Communications “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party to treat such Communications as either publicly available information or not material information
(although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Restricted Persons or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws; (C) all Communications marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made
available through a portion of the Electronic Platform designated “Public Investor” or other similar designation; and (D) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC” as
being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Electronic Platform not designated “Public Investor” or otherwise not designated as public. 

(c) THE ELECTRONIC PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE LENDER PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE
ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING 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 THE LENDER PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT
SHALL THE LENDER PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY RESTRICTED PERSON, ANY OTHER LENDER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL

REVOLVING LOAN NOTE 
  

					
	$                    	  	Houston, Texas	  	                         , 20    

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, W&T Offshore, Inc., a Texas corporation (herein called
“Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to                     (herein called “Lender”), the principal sum
of                     Dollars
($                     ), or, if greater or less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans made under this Revolving Loan Note by
Lender to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance thereof as hereinafter set forth, both principal and interest payable as herein provided in lawful
money of the United States of America to Administrative Agent’s account at a bank located in New York, New York as designated in writing to Borrower by Administrative Agent, as from time to time may be designated by the holder of this Revolving
Loan Note. 
 This Revolving Loan Note (a) is issued and delivered under that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement,
dated as of November 8, 2013, by and among Borrower, Toronto Dominion (Texas) LLC, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders (including Lender) and letter-of-credit issuing banks referred to therein as Issuers and the other persons from time to
time party thereto (herein, as from time to time supplemented, amended or restated, called the “Credit Agreement”), and is a “Revolving Note” as defined therein, (b) is subject to the terms and provisions of the Credit
Agreement, which contains provisions for payments and prepayments hereunder and acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain stated events, (c) is secured by and entitled to the benefits of certain Security Documents (as
identified and defined in the Credit Agreement), and (d) is executed in partial replacement, substitution, renewal, extension, and increase of, but not in extinguishment or novation of, those Revolving Loan Notes, dated as of May 5, 2011,
executed by Borrower and payable to certain lenders. Payments on this Revolving Loan Note shall be made and applied as provided herein and in the Credit Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Credit Agreement for a description of certain rights,
limitations of rights, obligations and duties of the parties hereto and for the meanings assigned to terms used and not defined herein and to the Security Documents for a description of the nature and extent of the security thereby provided and the
rights of the parties thereto. 
 The principal amount of this Revolving Loan Note, together with all interest accrued hereon, shall be due
and payable in full on the Maturity Date. 
 So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all ABR Loans (exclusive of any
past due principal or interest) from time to time outstanding shall bear interest on each day outstanding at the Alternate Base Rate in effect on such day. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all ABR Loans (exclusive of any past
due principal or interest) from time to time outstanding shall bear interest on each day outstanding at the Default Rate in effect on such day. On each ABR Payment Date Borrower shall pay to the holder hereof all unpaid interest which has accrued on
the ABR Loans to but not including such ABR Payment Date. So 

  
 Exhibit A-1 

 
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Eurodollar Loan (exclusive of any past due principal or interest) shall bear interest on each day during the related Interest
Period at the related Eurodollar Rate in effect on such day. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Eurodollar Loan (exclusive of any past due principal or interest) from time to time outstanding shall bear interest on each day
outstanding at the Default Rate in effect on such day. On each Eurodollar Rate Payment Date relating to such Eurodollar Loan, Borrower shall pay to the holder hereof all unpaid interest which has accrued on such Eurodollar Loan to but not including
such Eurodollar Rate Payment Date. All past due principal of and past due interest on the Loans shall bear interest on each day outstanding at the Default Rate in effect on such day, and such interest shall be due and payable daily as it accrues.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph: (A) this Revolving Loan Note shall never bear interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, and (B) if at any time the rate at which interest is payable on this Revolving Loan
Note is limited by the Highest Lawful Rate (by the foregoing subsection (a) or by reference to the Highest Lawful Rate in the definitions of Alternate Base Rate, Eurodollar Rate, and Default Rate), this Revolving Loan Note shall bear interest
at the Highest Lawful Rate and shall continue to bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until such time as the total amount of interest accrued hereon equals (but does not exceed) the total amount of interest which would have accrued hereon had
there been no Highest Lawful Rate applicable hereto. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph and all other provisions of this Revolving
Loan Note, in no event shall the interest payable hereon, whether before or after maturity, exceed the maximum amount of interest which, under applicable Law, may be contracted for, charged, or received on this Revolving Loan Note, and this
Revolving Loan Note is expressly made subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement which more fully set out the limitations on how interest accrues hereon. 

If this Revolving Loan Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection after default, or if all or any part of the indebtedness
represented hereby is proved, established or collected in any court or in any bankruptcy, receivership, debtor relief, probate or other court proceedings, Borrower and all endorsers, sureties and guarantors of this Revolving Loan Note jointly and
severally agree to pay reasonable attorneys’ fees and collection costs to the holder hereof in addition to the principal and interest payable hereunder. 

Borrower and all endorsers, sureties and guarantors of this Revolving Loan Note hereby severally waive demand, presentment, notice of demand
and of dishonor and nonpayment of this Revolving Loan Note, protest, notice of protest, notice of intention to accelerate the maturity of this Revolving Loan Note, declaration or notice of acceleration of the maturity of this Revolving Loan Note,
diligence in collecting, the bringing of any suit against any party and any notice of or defense on account of any extensions, renewals, partial payments or changes in any manner of or in this Revolving Loan Note or in any of its terms, provisions
and covenants, or any releases or substitutions of any security, or any delay, indulgence or other act of any trustee or any holder hereof, whether before or after maturity.
