Section 4.                                          Compensation.

 

(a)                                  As consideration for the Service Providers’ agreement to render the services set forth in Section 3(a) of this Agreement and as compensation for any such services rendered by the Service Providers, except as provided in Section 4(g), the Company agrees to pay a nonrefundable annual fee (the “Annual Fee”) equal to $25,000,000 to be allocated as follows: (i) a portion of the Annual Fee shall be allocated among each of (A) Riverstone, (B) KNOC and (C)  Access Industries  in accordance with a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of the commitment funded by  such Service Provider and/or its Affiliate in exchange for equity securities of Holdings (or any successor thereto) as of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of February 24, 2012, by and among EPE Acquisition, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, EP Energy Corporation, a corporation organized under the Laws of the State of Delaware, EP Energy Holding Company, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, and El Paso Brazil, L.L.C., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the commitments funded by investors in Holdings (or any successor thereto) in exchange for equity securities of Holdings (or any successor thereto) as of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and (ii) the remaining portion of the Annual Fee shall be allocated to  Apollo.  Such Annual Fee shall be payable in full for each calendar year during the Term on the first business day of such calendar year; provided, that the Annual Fee for the 2012 calendar year shall be prorated to cover only the time period commencing on the Completion Date and ending on December 31, 2012 and shall be payable in full and in advance on the Completion Date.  The Annual Fee will be payable to each Service Provider at the same time by wire transfer in same-day funds to the bank account designated by such Service Provider.

 

(b)                                 The parties acknowledge and agree that an objective of the Company Group is to maximize value for its equity holders which may include consummating (or participating in the consummation of) (i) a transaction (including any merger, consolidation, recapitalization or sale of assets or equity interests) the result of which is that any Person other than the Service Providers or an Affiliate of the Service Providers becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the equity and voting securities, or all or substantially all of the assets, of the Company Group (each such event, a “Change of Control”), or (ii) one or more public offerings of any class of equity securities of Holdings, the Company or any other member of the Company Group (each such event, an “IPO”). The services provided to the Company Group by the Service Providers pursuant to this Agreement will help to facilitate the consummation of a Change of Control or IPO, should any member of the Company Group decide to pursue such a transaction.

 

(c)                                  Upon presentation by a Service Provider to the Company of such documentation as may be reasonably requested by the Company, the Company shall reimburse such 

 

3

 

Service Provider for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees and expenses, and other disbursements incurred by such Service Provider, its Affiliates, or any of its or its Affiliates’ limited partners, general partners, directors, members, officers, managers, employees, agents, advisors or representatives in the performance of such Service Provider’s obligations hereunder.

 

(d)                                 Nothing in this Agreement shall have the effect of prohibiting the Service Providers, their Affiliates or any of their or their Affiliates’ limited partners, general partners, directors, members, officers, managers, employees, agents, advisors or representatives from receiving any other fees from Holdings, the Company or any other member of the Company Group.

 

(e)                                  Reference is made to (i) the Credit Agreement, to be entered into simultaneously with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (as amended, restated, modified or supplemented and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), dated as of May 24, 2012 and entered into by and among EPE Holdings LLC, EP Energy, LLC (f/k/a Everest Acquisition LLC), the lenders party thereto from time to time and JPMorgan Chase, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, (ii) the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of April 24, 2012, among EP Energy LLC (f/k/a Everest Acquisition LLC), the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Term Loan Agreement”), (iii) the Indenture (the “Secured Notes Indenture”), dated as of April 24, 2012, among EP Energy LLC (f/k/a Everest Acquisition LLC), Everest Acquisition Finance Inc. (together with EP Energy LLC (f/k/a Everest Acquisition LLC), the “Issuers”), the subsidiary guarantors party thereto from time to time and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), relating to the Issuers’ 6.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 (the “Secured Notes”) and (iv) the Indenture (the “Unsecured Notes Indenture” and, together with the Secured Notes Indenture, the “Indentures”), dated as of April 24, 2012, among the Issuers, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto from time to time and the Trustee, relating to the Issuers’ 9.375% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Unsecured Notes” and, together with the Secured Notes, the “Notes”) (the Notes, the Indentures and such related documents collectively being the “Debt Instruments”).  Any portion of the fees payable to the Service Providers under this Agreement (including the Annual Fee) which the Company is prohibited from paying to the Service Providers under the Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Agreement or the Debt Instruments shall be deferred, shall accrue and bear interest at a rate of (five percent) 5.0% per annum and shall be payable at the earliest time permitted under the Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Agreement and the Debt Instruments or upon the payment in full of all obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Agreement and the Debt Instruments. The Company shall notify the Service Providers if the Company shall be unable to pay any fees pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Agreement or the Debt Instruments on each date on which the Company would otherwise make a payment of fees under this Agreement to the Service Providers.  Any portion of any fees not paid on the scheduled due date shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Discount Rate, compounded quarterly, from the date due until paid.

 

(f)                                    All amounts payable to the Service Providers hereunder shall be paid to each Service Provider in US dollars by wire transfer in same-day funds to the bank account designated by such Service Provider.

 

(g)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Service Provider shall be entitled to receive any portion of the Annual Fee in the event that, at the time that such Annual Fee becomes payable, none of such Service Provider, its Affiliates or their respective permitted transferees are entitled to appoint a manager to the board of managers of Holdings pursuant to the terms of the LLC Agreement (such Service Provider, an “Ineligible Service Provider” and the portion of such Annual Fee so forfeited, the “Forfeited Fee”), in which case the Forfeited Fee shall be allocated to each other Service Provider who is either entitled to, or whose Affiliates or the respective permitted transferees thereof are entitled to appoint a manager to the board of managers of Holdings pursuant to 

 

4

 

the terms of the LLC Agreement (such Service Provider, an “Eligible Service Provider”) in accordance with a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is the portion of the Annual Fee (as the case may be) that such Eligible Service Provider would have received if the Ineligible Service Provider had remained eligible to receive its portion of the Annual Fee (as the case may be) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the portions of the Annual Fee (as the case may be) that the Eligible Service Providers would have received if the Ineligible Service Provider had remained eligible to receive its portion of the Annual Fee (as the case may be).

 

Section 5.                                          Indemnification; Limitation on Damages

 

(a)                                  The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Service Provider, its respective Affiliates, or any of its or its Affiliates’ limited partners, general partners, directors, members, officers, managers, employees, agents, advisors (each such Person being an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including in connection with seeking indemnification and, whether joint or several (the “Liabilities”), related to, arising out of or in connection with the services contemplated by this Agreement or the engagement of such Service Provider pursuant to, and the performance by such Service Provider of the services contemplated by, this Agreement, whether or not pending or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Party is a party, whether or not resulting in any liability and whether or not such action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding is initiated or brought by any member of the Company Group.  The Company shall reimburse any Indemnified Party for all costs, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding for which the Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of the previous sentence, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto.  The Company shall not be liable under the foregoing indemnification provisions with respect to any Liability of an Indemnified Party to the extent that such is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final judgment from which no further appeal may be taken, to have resulted primarily from the willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.  The attorneys’ fees and other expenses of an Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Company as they are incurred upon receipt, in each case, of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party to repay such amounts if it is finally judicially determined that the Liabilities in question resulted primarily from the willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.

 

(b)                                 The Company Group’s sole remedy against a Service Provider for breach of this Agreement shall be to offset any fees otherwise payable to such Service Provider by the amount of any Liabilities arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the services to be rendered hereunder, it being understood that any recovery shall be limited to actual damages, and no special, consequential, indirect, or punitive damages shall be allowed. No Indemnified Person shall be liable to the Company Group (i) for any breach hereunder by another Indemnified Person or (ii) for any breach by it, unless such breach constitutes fraud or willful misconduct as determined in a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be made.

AMENDMENT, dated as of August 17, 2012 (this “Amendment”), to the Credit Agreement, dated as of May 24, 2012 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”), among EPE Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), EP Energy LLC (f/k/a Everest Acquisition LLC), a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (the “Borrower”), the banks, financial institutions and other lending institutions from time to time parties as lenders thereto (each a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and as collateral agent for the Lenders, the swingline lender and an issuer of Letters of Credit, and each other Issuing Bank from time to time party thereto.

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement permits the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent and the Majority Lenders to enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications to the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the relevant Credit Parties; and

 

WHEREAS, the Credit Parties desire to amend the Credit Agreement on the terms set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE I

 

Definitions

 

Section 1.1.       Defined Terms. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement unless otherwise defined herein or the context otherwise requires.

 

ARTICLE II

 

Amendment

 

Section 2.1.       Amendment. Section 10.2(z) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended, by deleting the figure “$500,000,000” therein and replacing such figure with “$850,000,000”.

 

ARTICLE III

 

Conditions and Miscellaneous

 

Section 3.1.       Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective on the date on which:

 

(a)       The Administrative Agent shall have received this Amendment, executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of each of the Borrower and Holdings and Lenders comprising at least the Majority Lenders; and

 

 

(b)       Each of the Borrower and Holdings shall have confirmed and acknowledged to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders, and by its execution and delivery of this Amendment each of the Borrower and Holdings does hereby confirm and acknowledge to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders, that (i) such Credit Party shall have taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment, (ii) the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Document to which it or any of its applicable Subsidiaries that are Credit Parties is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law) and (iii) no Default or Event of Default exists under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents. 

 

Section 3.2.       Ratification. Each of the Borrower and Holdings (for itself and its applicable Subsidiaries that are Credit Parties) hereby (a) ratifies and confirms all of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) and the other Credit Documents related thereto, and, in particular, affirms that, after giving effect to this Amendment, the terms of the Security Documents secure, and will continue to secure, all Obligations thereunder, and (b) represents and warrants to the Lenders that as of the effectiveness of this Amendment (i) all of the representations and warranties contained in the Credit Document to which it is a party are true and correct in all material respects with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of such date (except where such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case, such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date) and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

Section 3.3.       Continuing Effect; No Other Amendments or Waivers. This Amendment shall not constitute an amendment or waiver of or consent to any provision of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents except as expressly stated herein and shall not be construed as an amendment, waiver or consent to any action on the part of the Borrower that would require an amendment, waiver or consent of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders except as expressly stated herein. Except as expressly waived hereby, the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents are and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

 

Section 3.4.       Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of separate counterparts by the parties hereto (including by telecopy or via electronic mail), each of which counterparts when so executed shall be an original, but all the counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

 

Section 3.5.       GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AMENDMENT A SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
