provisions of this Agreement. 
 Section 3.    Increase in the Borrowing Base. Subject to the
terms of this Agreement, effective as of the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrowing Base shall be redetermined to be an amount equal to (a) $600,000,000 minus (b) any reductions to the Borrowing Base effected under the Existing
Credit Agreement after the date hereof but prior to the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below). Such redetermined Borrowing Base shall remain in effect at that level until the effective date of the next Borrowing Base redetermination or
adjustment made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Borrowing Base redetermination set forth in this Section 3 is the semi-annual redetermination of the
Borrowing Base scheduled to occur on or about October 1, 2021, as provided in Section 2.02(b)(ii) of the Credit Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the resulting Borrowing Base, after
giving effect to the increase in the Borrowing Base set forth in this Section 3, and each Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount, after giving effect to this Agreement, are as set forth in Schedule II – Notice
Information and Commitments attached hereto. 
 Section 4.    Assignment and Acceptance; Increase in
Maximum Credit Amounts. In lieu of executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each Lender whose Pro Rata Share of the Commitments is decreasing in connection herewith (each an “Assignor” and, collectively,
the “Assignors”) and the New Lenders and each other Lender whose Pro Rata Share of the Commitments is increasing in connection herewith (each an “Assignee” and, collectively, the “Assignees”) hereby
agree to, and the Borrower hereby accepts, the following: 
 (a)    Assignment. For an agreed consideration, each
Assignor hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to the respective Assignees, and each Assignee hereby irrevocably purchases and assumes from the respective Assignors, subject to and in accordance with the terms hereof and of the Credit Agreement, as
of the Amendment Effective Date and after giving effect to the increase in the Borrowing Base effected hereby, (i) such percentage in and to all of the respective Assignors’ rights and obligations in their respective capacities as Lenders
under the Credit Agreement and any other documents or instruments delivered pursuant thereto to the extent related to the amount and percentage interest identified in 

  
 2 

 
Schedule II – Notice Information and Commitments attached hereto that would result in Assignors and Assignees having the respective Maximum Credit Amounts and Pro Rata Shares of the
then effective Borrowing Base, in each case, as set forth in Schedule II – Notice Information and Commitments attached hereto (including, without limitation, any letters of credit and guaranties provided in connection with the Credit
Agreement) after giving effect to increases in any Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount as required under Section 4(b) below, and (ii) to the extent permitted to be assigned under applicable law, all claims, suits,
causes of action and any other right of the respective Assignors (in their respective capacities as Lenders) against any Person, whether known or unknown, arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other documents or instruments
delivered pursuant thereto or the loan transactions governed thereby or in any way based on or related to any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, contract claims, tort claims, malpractice claims, statutory claims and all other claims at
law or in equity related to, and in proportion to, the rights and obligations sold and assigned pursuant to clause (i) above (the rights and obligations sold and assigned by any Assignor to any Assignee pursuant to clauses
(i) and (ii) above being referred to herein, collectively, as an “Assigned Interest”). Each such sale and assignment is without recourse to any Assignor and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, without
representation or warranty by any Assignor. 
 (b)    Increases in Maximum Credit Amounts. The outstanding
commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement are being assigned, renewed, extended, modified, and rearranged as Commitments under and pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and this Agreement, including the termination of Commitments of
Chambers Energy Capital IV, LP, Oaktree Opportunities Fund Xb Holdings (Delaware), L.P., Société Générale, and East West Bank (each, an “Exiting Lender” and, collectively, the “Exiting
Lenders”). The Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower, and each Exiting Lender (by receipt of the payment in full of the Advances as defined in, and owing to it under, the Existing Credit Agreement and under a separate exiting
lender agreement executed by such Exiting Lender) consented to such reallocation and each Exiting Lender’s adjustment of, and each Exiting Lender’s assignment of, an interest in the Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement)
and the Exiting Lenders’ assignments of their respective Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). As a result of each Exiting Lender ceasing to be a Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement, the sum of the aggregate amount
of Maximum Credit Amounts being assigned pursuant to Section 4(a) above plus the aggregate amount of Maximum Credit Amounts retained by Lenders that are not Exiting Lenders and that are not New Lenders may be less than
$1,000,000,000. As a result thereof, on the Amendment Effective Date, and after giving effect to such reallocations, adjustments, assignments, increases and decreases set forth herein and in the separate exiting lender agreements with the Exiting
Lenders, the Maximum Credit Amount of each Lender shall be increased or decreased to the extent necessary so that such Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount is equal to the amount as set forth next to such Lender’s name on Schedule II –
Notice Information and Commitments and each Lender’s corresponding Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing Base shall be adjusted accordingly. The Borrower and each Lender party hereto agrees that this
Section 4 and any exiting lender agreement executed by an Exiting Lender that is acceptable to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed approved assignment forms as required under the Existing Credit Agreement. 

(c)    Representations and Warranties of Assignor. Each Assignor (i) represents and warrants that (A) it
is the legal and beneficial owner of the relevant Assigned Interest, (B) such Assigned Interest is free and clear of any lien, encumbrance or other adverse claim, (C) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to

purchase such Assigned Interest, (F) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement and to purchase such Assigned Interest, and (G) if it is a Foreign Lender, on or prior to the date hereof, it has delivered to the Administrative Agent any documentation required to be delivered by it
pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, duly completed and executed by such Assignee; and (ii) agrees that (A) it will, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent, any Assignor, or any other Lender, and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents, and (B) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the
obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 

(e)    Payments. From and after the Amendment Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments in
respect of each Assigned Interest (including payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts) to the relevant Assignee whether such amounts have accrued prior to, on or after the Amendment Effective Date. The Assignors and Assignees shall
make all appropriate adjustments in payments by the Administrative Agent for periods prior to the Amendment Effective Date or with respect to the making of this assignment directly between themselves. 

(f)    Consent; Waiver of Administrative Fees. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower hereby
consent to each Assignor’s assignment of the Assigned Interests to the respective Assignees, and waive any other conditions to the effectiveness of such assignment that are not expressly set forth in this Agreement, and agree that the terms of

automatically be deemed to equal such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit Obligations (such Pro Rata Share for such Lender to be determined as of Amendment Effective Date after giving effect to the increase in the Borrowing Base
and the assignments effected hereby) without further action by any party.

have received evidence in form and substance satisfactory to it that (i) subject to the following clause (ii), all Hedge Contracts in which Lonestar or any of its subsidiaries is a party, and the counterparty to such Hedge Contract is an
institution that is not a Lender or a New Lender, have been novated to a Lender or a New Lender or replaced with Hedge Contracts permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement, and (ii) with respect to such Hedge Contracts that have not been
so novated or replaced, other arrangements satisfactory to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable counterparty that are permitted under the Credit Agreement have been made.

the Credit Agreement, in each case, in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(v)    Amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement. No amendment, supplement, modification of, or consent under,
the Existing Credit Agreement which requires the consent of any Lender (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) or any Lender Swap Counterparty (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under Section 9.03 of the Existing Credit
Agreement shall have been made other than (i) the amendments effected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (ii) such amendments, supplements, modifications and consents that are consented to by all of the Continuing Lenders and the New
Lenders, and (iii) such amendments, supplements, modifications and consents that are permitted under Section 9.03 of the Existing Credit Agreement with the consent of the Majority Lenders or the Required Lenders (as defined in the Existing
Credit Agreement) so long as the Continuing Lenders and the New Lenders that would constitute Majority Lenders, Required Lenders or Lender Swap Counterparties (as defined in the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Agreement, and as
applicable) have also consented to such amendments, supplements and modifications. 
 The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and
the Lenders and the New Lenders of the Amendment Effective Date, and such notice shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. 

Section 8.    Acknowledgments and Agreements. 

(a)    Each Loan Party acknowledges that on the date hereof and on the Amendment Effective Date all outstanding Obligations
are payable in accordance with their terms and each Loan Party waives any defense, offset, counterclaim or recoupment (other than a defense of payment or performance) with respect thereto. 

(b)    Holdings, the Borrower, each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, and each Lender party hereto
do hereby adopt, ratify, and confirm the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended by this Agreement, and acknowledge and agree that the Existing Credit Agreement, as so amended, is and remains in full force and effect, and acknowledge and agree that
their respective liabilities and obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement, as so amended, the Guaranty, and the other Loan Documents, are not impaired in any respect by this Agreement. 

(c)    Nothing herein shall constitute a waiver or relinquishment of (i) any Default or Event of Default under any of
the Loan Documents, (ii) any of the agreements, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents, (iii) any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the Loan Documents, or (iv) the rights

 10 

 (d)    From and after the Amendment Effective Date, all references to
the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall mean the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as each have been amended by this Agreement. This Agreement is a Loan Document for the purposes of the provisions of
the other Loan Documents. 
 (e)    The parties hereto hereby agree that if the Amendment Effective Date does not occur

of the Existing Credit Agreement, shall be required. 
 (f)    To the extent the Lonestar Mortgages are not delivered by
the Borrower on or prior to the Amendment Effective Date, and the Administrative Agent has consented to such later delivery, the Borrower shall deliver the Lonestar Mortgages to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of the Amendment
Effective Date. The failure by the Borrower to deliver the Lonestar Mortgages by such time shall be an Event of Default under Section 7.01(c)(i) of the Credit Agreement. 

(g)    The parties hereto hereby agree that Schedule II – Notice Information and Commitments attached hereto
may be updated by the Administrative Agent, without the need for consent or action by any party hereto, solely to the extent necessary to account for permitted assignments by Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement effected after the date hereof
but prior to the Amendment Effective Date. 
 Section 9.    Release of Intermediate and the General
Partner. Each of Holdings and the Borrower has requested that Intermediate and the General Partner be released from their respective guaranty obligations under the Loan Documents and their respective assets released from the Liens
created under the Loan Documents. Subject to the terms hereof and in reliance on the consent provided by the Lenders below, as of the Amendment Effective Date, the Administrative Agent hereby releases and discharges (a) Intermediate and the
General Partner from their respective obligations as a guarantor under the Guaranty and as a grantor under the Security Agreement, and (b) all right, title and interest of Intermediate and the General Partner in any of their respective Property
from the Liens granted under the Security Agreement. The Lenders expressly consent to the foregoing release and discharge. The foregoing release and discharge by the Administrative Agent, and the consent by the Lenders, are strictly limited to the
extent, and as expressly provided in this Section 9, and are strictly contingent upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7 above. The release, discharge and consent provided
herein is a one-time event and shall not be construed to, or serve to, (i) establish a custom or course of dealing with respect to any of the Loan Documents, (ii) in any way modify, change, impair,
affect, diminish or release the Borrower’s or any other Guarantor’s obligations or liability under the Loan Documents or any other liability the Borrower or any other Guarantor may have to the Administrative Agent or any other Secured
Party, (iii) in any way modify, change, impair, affect, diminish or release Holdings from the obligations and liabilities under the Credit Agreement as a party thereto, including Section 6.22 of the Credit Agreement, or (iv) waive,
limit or condition the Administrative Agent’s or any other Lender Party’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. 

Section 10.    Reaffirmation of Security Instruments. Each Loan Party (a) reaffirms the
terms of and its obligations (and the security interests granted by it) under each Security Instrument to which it is a party, and agrees that each such Security Instrument will continue in full force and effect to secure the Secured Obligations as
the same may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time (including, without limitation, in respect of Section 9 above), and (b) acknowledges, represents, warrants and agrees that the Liens and
security interests granted by it pursuant to the Security Instruments are valid, enforceable and subsisting and create a security interest to secure the Secured Obligations. 

  
 11

Each Loan Party hereby ratifies, confirms, acknowledges and agrees that its obligations under the Guaranty are in full force and effect and that such Loan Party continues to unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the full and punctual payment,
when due, whether at stated maturity or earlier by acceleration or otherwise, all of the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Guaranty), as such Guaranteed Obligations may have been amended by this Agreement (including, without limitation, in
respect of Section 9 above), and its execution and delivery of this Agreement does not indicate or establish an approval or consent requirement by such Loan Party under the Guaranty, in connection with the execution and
delivery of amendments, consents or waivers to the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 

Section 12.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which, taken together, constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of

Commitments attached hereto may be amended as provided in Section 8(g) above, (b) Annex A attached hereto may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified to the extent the Existing Credit Agreement is amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified after the date hereof with the consent of the Majority Lenders or the Required Lenders (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement and in effect at the time of such amendment, supplement or modification) so long as the Continuing
Lenders and the New Lenders that would constitute Majority Lenders or Required Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Agreement, and as applicable) have also consented to such amendments, supplements and
modifications, and (c) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend any provision of this Agreement (and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan
Document) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error, ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any such provision. 

Section 14.    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement. 

Section 15.    Invalidity. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Legal Requirement, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall not be affected or impaired

“Current Liabilities” means, at any time, the consolidated current liabilities of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, but excluding, without duplication, (i) the principal amount of Advances then outstanding, (ii) the current portion
of any long-term Debt and (iii) interest and Taxes currently payable. 
 “Write-Down and Conversion Powers” means
(a) with respect to any EEA Resolution Authority, the write-down and conversion powers of such EEA Resolution Authority from time to time under the Bail-In Legislation for the applicable EEA Member
Country, which write-down and conversion powers are described in the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule and (b) with respect to the United Kingdom, any powers of the applicable Resolution Authority under the
Bail-In Legislation to cancel, reduce, modify or change the form of a liability of any UK Financial Institution or any contract or instrument under which that liability arises, to convert all or part of that
liability into shares, securities or obligations of that person or any other person, to provide that any such contract or instrument is to have effect as if a right had been exercised under it or to suspend any obligation in respect of that
liability or any of the powers under that Bail-In Legislation that are related to or ancillary to any of those powers. 

“Zero Balance Account” means a zero balance account of a Loan Party maintained by Bank of America, N.A. (or any other
financial institution with the consent of the Administrative Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that, (a) such account must have the zero balance function active at all times, (b) no Loan Party
may have the ability to disable the zero balance function on such account, and (c) such account may not contain a balance of more than $0 for more than twenty four hours (for the avoidance of doubt, (i) zero balance accounts shall be
considered Deposit Accounts and (ii) should any Deposit Account fail to meet any of the requirements in the foregoing proviso, then such Deposit Account shall cease to be a Zero Balance Account at such time and shall be subject to the
applicable requirements of Section 6.26).

 Section 1.02    Computation of Time Periods. In this
Agreement, with respect to the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” each means “to but
excluding”. 
 Section 1.03    Accounting Terms; Changes in GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted, and all financial statements and certificates and reports as to financial matters required to be delivered to the Lenders hereunder shall (unless otherwise disclosed to the
Lenders in writing at the time of delivery thereof) be prepared, in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with those used in the preparation of the latest financial statements furnished to the Lenders hereunder. All calculations made
for the purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement shall (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) be made by application of GAAP applied on a basis consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual or quarterly financial
statements furnished to the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.06 hereof most recently delivered prior to or concurrently with such calculations. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement
set forth herein, and either the Borrower or the Majority Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in
light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Majority Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (a) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein, and
(b) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such
ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. In addition, all calculations and defined accounting terms used herein shall, unless expressly provided otherwise, when referring to any Person, refer to such Person on
a consolidated basis and mean such Person and its consolidated subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision contained herein or any other Loan Document, any lease that would have been characterized, classified or reclassified
as an operating lease in accordance with GAAP prior to the date of Holding’s adoption of ASC 842 (and related interpretations) (whether or not such lease was in effect on such date) shall be deemed not to constitute a Capital Lease, and any
such lease shall be, for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, treated as though it were reflected on Holdings’ consolidated financial statements in the same manner as an Operating Lease would have been reflected prior to
Holdings’ adoption of ASC 842. 
 Section 1.04    Types of Advances. Advances are distinguished by
“Type.” The “Type” of an Advance refers to the determination whether such Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance or Reference Rate Advance as determined in accordance with Section 2.03. 

Section 1.05    UCC Terms. Terms defined in the UCC in effect on the date hereof and not otherwise defined
herein shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, have the meanings provided by those definitions. Subject to the foregoing, the term “UCC” refers, as of any date of determination, to the UCC then in effect. 

Section 1.06    Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained pursuant to this Agreement shall be
calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio or percentage is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number
(with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number). 

Section 1.07    Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to the amount of a
Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to mean the maximum face amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all increases thereof contemplated by such Letter of Credit or the 

  
 -46- 

 
Letter of Credit Application therefor (at the time specified therefor in such applicable Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application and as such amount may be reduced by (a) any
permanent reduction of such Letter of Credit or (b) any amount which is drawn, reimbursed and no longer available under such Letter of Credit). 

Section 1.08    Guarantees. Unless otherwise specified, the amount of any Guarantee shall be the lesser of the
principal amount of the obligations guaranteed and still outstanding and the maximum amount for which the guaranteeing Person may be liable pursuant to the terms of the instrument embodying such Guarantee. 

Section 1.09    Miscellaneous. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural
forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be
followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to
any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments,
supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns (subject to any restrictions on assignments contained in this Agreement), (c) the words
“herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles,
Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement, (e) any reference to any law or regulation herein shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or
regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, and (f) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets
and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. Titles and captions of Articles, Sections and subsections in, and the table of contents of, this Agreement are for convenience only, and neither limit nor amplify the
provisions of this Agreement. 
 Section 1.10    Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in
connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s Legal Requirements): (a) if any asset, Property, right, obligation, or liability of any Person becomes the asset,
Property, right, obligation, or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed
to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time. 

Section 1.11    Rates; Eurodollar Base Rate Notification. The interest rate on Eurodollar Rate Advances and
Reference Rate Advances (when determined by reference to clause (c) of the definition of Adjusted Reference Rate) may be determined by reference to the Eurodollar Base Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London
interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration (“IBA”), the
administrator of the London interbank offered rate, and the Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”) the regulatory supervisor of IBA, announced in public statements (the “Announcements”) that the final publication
or representativeness date for the London interbank offered rate for Dollars for: (a) 1-week and 2-month tenor settings will be December 31, 2021 and
(b) overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month tenor settings will be
June 30, 2023. No successor administrator for IBA was identified in such Announcements. As a result, it is possible that commencing immediately after such dates, the London interbank offered rate for such tenors may no longer be available or
may no longer be deemed a 

  
 -47- 

 
representative reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Rate Advances and Reference Rate Advances (when determined by reference to clause (c) of the definition
of Adjusted Reference Rate). There is no assurance that the dates set forth in the Announcements will not change or that the IBA or the FCA will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition or characteristics of any London
interbank offered rate. Public and private sector industry initiatives have been and continue, as of the Amendment No. 11 Effective Date, to be underway to implement new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank
offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate or any other then-current Benchmark is no longer available or in certain other circumstances set forth in Section 2.03(c)(vii), such
Section 2.03(c)(vii) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(vii), of any change to the
reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Rate Advances and Reference Rate Advances (when determined by reference to clause (c) of the definition of Adjusted Reference Rate) is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not
warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (i) the continuation or, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other
rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Base Rate” or with respect to any alternative, comparable or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including any then-current Benchmark or any Replacement Rate), including whether the
composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Replacement Rate), as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(vii), will be similar to, or produce the
same value or economic equivalence of, Eurodollar Base Rate or any other Benchmark, or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (ii) the
effect, implementation or composition of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of a Benchmark, any alternative,
successor or replacement rate (including any Replacement Rate) or any relevant adjustments thereto and such transactions may be adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion
to ascertain any Benchmark, any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for damages
of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or
component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. 
 ARTICLE II 

CREDIT FACILITIES 

Section 2.01    Commitment for Advances. 

(a)    Advances. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make
Advances in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date of this Agreement until the Commitment Termination Date; provided that, after giving effect to such Advances, each Lender’s Credit
Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment at such time. Each Borrowing shall, in the case of Borrowings consisting of Reference Rate Advances, be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in
excess thereof, and in the case of Borrowings consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, be in an aggregate amount not less than $2,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, and in each case shall consist of Advances of the same
Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may from time to time borrow, prepay, and reborrow Advances. 

  
 -48- 

 (b)    Evidence of Indebtedness. The Advances made by each Lender
shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be conclusive
absent manifest error of the amount of the Advances made by such Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the
Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters,
the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to the Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through
the Administrative Agent) the applicable Notes which shall evidence such Lender’s Advances to the Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to such Notes and endorse thereon the date, Type (if
applicable), amount, and maturity of its Advances and payments with respect thereto. In addition to the accounts and records referred to in the immediately preceding sentences, each Lender, Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and
the accounts and records of any Lender (other than the Issuing Lender) in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. In the event of any conflict among the accounts
and records maintained by the Administrative Agent, the accounts and records maintained by the Issuing Lender as to Letters of Credit issued by it, and the accounts and records of any other Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records
of the Issuing Lender shall control in the absence of manifest error. 
 Section 2.02    Borrowing Base.

 (a)    Borrowing Base. The initial Borrowing Base in effect as of Closing Date has been set by the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders and acknowledged by the Borrower as $128,000,000. Such initial Borrowing Base shall remain in effect until the next redetermination or adjustment made pursuant to this Agreement. The Borrowing Base shall be
determined in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 2.02(e) and is subject to periodic redetermination pursuant to Sections 2.02(b) and 2.02(c), and mandatory reductions pursuant to Section 2.02(d). 

(b)    Calculation of Borrowing Base. 

(i)    The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on or before each March 1st, beginning March 1, 2017, an Independent Engineering Report dated effective as of the immediately preceding January 1st, and such other
information as may be reasonably requested by any Lender with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties included or to be included in the Borrowing Base. In the normal course of business (but in any event within 30 days after the Administrative
Agent’s and the Lenders’ receipt of such Independent Engineering Report (and such additional Engineering Report, if any, required under the last sentence of subsection (iv) below) and other information), (A) the Administrative Agent
shall deliver to each Lender the Administrative Agent’s recommendation for the redetermined Borrowing Base, (B) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall redetermine the Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 2.02(e), and
(C) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of the amount of the Borrowing Base as so redetermined. 

(ii)    The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on or before each September 1st, beginning September 1, 2017, an Internal Engineering Report or an Independent Engineering Report dated effective as of the immediately preceding July
1st and, in each 

  
 -49- 

 
instance, such other information as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties included or to be included in the Borrowing
Base. In the normal course of business (but in any event within 30 days after the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ receipt of such Internal Engineering Report or Internal Engineering Report (and such additional Engineering Report,
if any, required under the last sentence of subsection (iv) below) and other information), (A) the Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender the Administrative Agent’s recommendation for the redetermined Borrowing Base,
(B) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall redetermine the Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 2.02(e), and (C) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of the amount of the Borrowing Base
as so redetermined. 
 (iii)    In the event that the Borrower does not furnish to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders the Independent Engineering Report, Internal Engineering Report or other information specified in clauses (i) and (ii) above by the date specified therein (or such additional Engineering Report, if any, required under the last sentence
of subsection (iv) below), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may nonetheless redetermine the Borrowing Base and redesignate the Borrowing Base from
time-to-time thereafter in their sole discretion (but subject to Section 2.02(e)) until the Administrative Agent and the Lenders receive the relevant Independent
Engineering Report, Internal Engineering Report, or other information, as applicable, at which time the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall redetermine the Borrowing Base as otherwise specified in this Section 2.02. 

(iv)    Each delivery of an Engineering Report (including, without limitation, the initial Engineering Report delivered
pursuant to Section 3.01) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that (A) the Borrower and the Guarantors, as
applicable, own the Oil and Gas Properties specified therein subject to an Acceptable Security Interest to the extent required hereunder (other than any thereof that have been Disposed of since the date of such Engineering Report in a Disposition
permitted by this Agreement and noted to the Administrative Agent under the certificate required under Section 5.06(e)(iv)(C)) and free and clear of any Liens (except Permitted Liens), (B) on and as of the date of such Engineering Report each
Oil and Gas Property identified as PDP Reserves therein was developed for oil and gas, and the wells pertaining to such Oil and Gas Properties that are described therein as producing wells (“Wells”), were each producing oil and/or
gas in paying quantities, except for Wells that were utilized as water or gas injection wells, carbon dioxide wells or as water disposal wells (each as noted in such Engineering Report) or wells that were shut in for maintenance, repair or offset
drilling activity (each as noted in such Engineering Report), (C) the descriptions of the nature of the record title interests of the Borrower and the Guarantors, as applicable, set forth in such Engineering Report are complete and accurate in all
respects, and take into account all Permitted Liens, (D) there are no “back-in” or “reversionary” interests held by third parties which could reduce the interests of the Borrower or
any of the Guarantors in such Oil and Gas Properties except as set forth in Engineering Report, (E) no operating or other agreement to which the Borrower or any of the Guarantors is a party or by which the Borrower or any of the Guarantors is
bound affecting any part of such Oil and Gas Properties requires the Borrower or any of the Guarantors to bear any of the costs relating to such Oil and Gas Properties greater than the record title interest of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors
in such portion of the such Oil and Gas Properties as set forth in such Engineering Report, except in the event the Borrower or any of the Guarantors is obligated under an operating agreement to assume a portion of a defaulting party’s share of
costs, and (F) the Borrower’s and the Guarantors’ ownership of the Hydrocarbons and the undivided interests in the Oil and Gas Properties as specified in such Engineering Report (i) will, after giving full effect to all Permitted
Liens, afford the Borrower or the applicable Guarantor not less than those net interests (expressed as a fraction, percentage or decimal) in the production from or which is allocated to such Hydrocarbons specified as net revenue interest in such
Engineering Report and (ii) will cause the Borrower or the applicable Guarantor to bear not more than that portion (expressed as a fraction, 

  
 -50- 

 
percentage or decimal), specified as working interest in such Engineering Report, of the costs of drilling, developing and operating the wells identified in such Engineering Report or identified
in the exhibits to the Mortgages encumbering such Oil and Gas Properties (except for any increases in working interest with a corresponding increase in the net revenue interest in such Oil and Gas Property) other than any discrepancy disclosed by
the Borrower or such Guarantor in writing to the Administrative Agent at or prior to the delivery of such Engineering Report. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Administrative Agent is notified of such discrepancy, then the
Borrower shall promptly (but in any event within ten (10) days after such original Engineering Report was required to be delivered or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) deliver an updated Internal
Engineering Report (or an Independent Engineering Report if the original Engineering Report was required to be an Independent Engineering Report) taking into account such discrepancy. 

(c)    Interim Redeterminations. In addition to the scheduled Borrowing Base redeterminations provided for in
Section 2.02(b), the Borrowing Base may be further redetermined by the Lenders as follows, in each case, based on such information as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders deem relevant (but in accordance with Section 2.02(e)): 

(i)    the Administrative Agent may, and shall at the request of the Required Lenders, make a redetermination of the
Borrowing Base during any six-month period between scheduled redeterminations; 

(ii)    the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, make a redetermination of the Borrowing Base
during any six-month period between scheduled redeterminations; and 

(iii)    the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, in connection with any acquisition of Oil and
Gas Properties (whether completed in one transaction or a series of transaction) having a purchase price in excess of the greater of (x) 5.0% of the then current Borrowing Base and (y) $10,000,000, make a redetermination of the Borrowing Base. 

For the avoidance of doubt, such additional redeterminations of the Borrowing Base shall not constitute nor be construed as a consent to any transaction or
proposed transaction that would not be permitted under the terms of this Agreement. The party requesting the redetermination under this paragraph (c) shall give the other party at least 10 days’ prior written notice that a redetermination
of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this paragraph (c) is to be performed (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may agree to in their sole discretion); provided that, no such prior written notice shall be
required for any redetermination made by the Lenders during the existence of a Default. In connection with any redetermination of the Borrowing Base under this Section 2.02(c), the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
with such information regarding the Borrower and the Guarantors’ business (including, without limitation, its Oil and Gas Properties, Oil and Gas Related Properties, the Proven Reserves, and production relating thereto) as the Administrative
Agent or any Lender may reasonably request; provided that, in the case of requests for an increase to the Borrowing Base of an amount in excess of (x) 5.0% of the Borrowing Base then in effect and (y) $10,000,000, the request of an updated
Independent Engineering Report is deemed to be reasonable. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of each redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Section 2.02(c) and the amount of the Borrowing
Base as so redetermined. 
 (d)    Mandatory Reductions. 

(i)    If any Trigger Event has the effect of causing the sum of (A) the BB Value of all Dispositions of Oil and Gas
Properties made since the date of the most recent scheduled Borrowing Base 

  
 -51- 

 
redetermination (including such Trigger Event), (B) the BB Value of all Dispositions of Oil and Gas Related Properties made since the date of the most recent scheduled Borrowing Base
redetermination (including such Trigger Event), (C) the BB Value of BB Hedges which have been novated, assigned, unwound, terminated, expired or amended since the date of the most recent scheduled Borrowing Base redetermination (including such
Trigger Event), and (D) the BB Value attributed to Oil and Gas Properties subject to title defects not cured to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 5.11 within the
60-day period permitted under Section 5.11 (including such Trigger Event), to exceed 5.0% of the Borrowing Base then in effect, then effective as of the applicable Trigger Event Date, the Borrowing Base
shall be automatically reduced by the BB Value of the Oil and Gas Properties, Oil and Gas Related Properties, and BB Hedges, as applicable, that are covered by such Trigger Event as determined by the Administrative Agent. If any notice event is
triggered under Section 6.01(g) as to any Lien, then effective as of the date such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Borrowing Base shall be automatically reduced by the BB Value attributed to such Lien. For the avoidance of
doubt, the mandatory reduction in the Borrowing Base required under this clause (i) shall not constitute nor be construed as a consent to any transaction or proposed transaction that would not be permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

 (ii)    Effective immediately as of the date of incurrence of any Senior Unsecured Note Indebtedness (other than
Senior Unsecured Note Indebtedness issued pursuant to an Exchange Offer and the issuance of the Specified Senior Notes), unless otherwise consented to by the Required Lenders, the Borrowing Base shall automatically reduce on such date by an amount
equal to 25.0% of (A) the principal amount of such applicable Senior Unsecured Note Indebtedness (without giving effect to any original issue discount) minus (B) to the extent such Senior Unsecured Note Indebtedness constitutes a
refinancing of Senior Unsecured Note Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.21, the principal amount of Senior Unsecured Note Indebtedness being refinanced thereby, and such reduced Borrowing Base shall remain in effect until the date the
Borrowing Base is otherwise redetermined or adjusted pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the mandatory reduction in the Borrowing Base required under this clause (ii) shall not constitute nor be construed as a consent to any
transaction or proposed transaction that would not be permitted under the terms of this Agreement. 

(e)    Standards for Redetermination. Each redetermination of the Borrowing Base by the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be made (i) in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (but in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 2.02(e)), (ii) in accordance with the
Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ customary internal standards and practices for valuing and redetermining the value of Oil and Gas Properties in connection with reserve based oil and gas loan transactions, (iii) in conjunction
with the most recent Independent Engineering Report or Internal Engineering Report, as applicable, or other information received by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders relating to the Proven Reserves of the Borrower and the Guarantors, and
(iv) based upon the estimated value of the Proven Reserves owned by the Borrower and the Guarantors as determined by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. In valuing and redetermining the Borrowing Base, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders may also consider the business, financial condition, and Indebtedness obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors and such other factors as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders customarily deem appropriate, including without
limitation, commodity price assumptions, projections of production, operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, capital costs, working capital requirements, liquidity evaluations, dividend payments, environmental costs, and legal costs.
In that regard, the Borrower acknowledges that the determination of the Borrowing Base contains a value cushion (market value in excess of loan value), which is essential for the adequate protection of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
Subject to the last sentence of Section 5.08(a), to the extent a Proven Reserve is not encumbered by an Acceptable Security Interest, such Proven Reserve shall not be included or considered for inclusion in the Borrowing Base to the extent an
Acceptable Security Interest thereon would be necessary to cause the Administrative Agent to have an 

  
 -52- 

 
Acceptable Security Interest in (x) at least 90% (by value) of the Proven Reserves and the Oil and Gas Properties relating thereto, (y) 90% (by value) of the Loan Parties’ other Oil and
Gas Properties, and (z) 100% (by value) of the Original Mortgaged Properties (other than such Original Mortgaged Properties which are Disposed of as permitted under Section 6.04(c)). At all times after the Administrative Agent has given the
Borrower notification of a redetermination of the Borrowing Base under this Section 2.02, the Borrowing Base shall be equal to the redetermined amount or such lesser amount designated by the Borrower and disclosed in writing to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders until the Borrowing Base is subsequently redetermined in accordance with this Section 2.02; provided that the Borrower shall not request that the Borrowing Base be reduced to a level that would result
in a Borrowing Base Deficiency (without giving effect to the proviso in the definition thereof). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) to the extent the redetermined Borrowing Base is less than or equal to the Borrowing Base in
effect prior to such redetermination, such redetermined Borrowing Base must be approved by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, and (y) to the extent the redetermined Borrowing Base is greater than the Borrowing Base in effect
prior to such redetermination, such redetermined Borrowing Base must be approved by the Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders. 

Section 2.03    Method of Borrowing. 

(a)    Notice. Each Borrowing shall be made pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing given by Borrower to
Administrative Agent not later than (i) in the case of the Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date (y) 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the second Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Eurodollar Rate
Advance or (z) 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Reference Rate Advance or (ii) in the case of all Borrowings to be made after the Closing Date, (y) 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time)
on the third Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Advance or (z) 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Reference Rate Advance, which shall
give to each Lender prompt notice of such proposed Borrowing, by facsimile or by electronic mail. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be by facsimile or by electronic mail (with a PDF file of the executed Notice of Borrowing attached), specifying
(i) the requested date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the requested Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be comprised of
Eurodollar Rate Advances, the requested Interest Period for each such Advance; provided that, all Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date shall consist only of Reference Rate Advance (which may, subject to the terms of this Agreement, be
thereafter Converted into Eurodollar Rate Advances) unless a breakfunding agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent has been executed by the Borrower concurrent with the delivery of such Notice of Borrowing. In the case of a
proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.09(b). Each Lender shall, before 12:00 noon (Houston, Texas time) on the date
of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.09, or such other location as the Administrative Agent may specify by notice to the Lenders,
in same day funds, such Lender’s pro rata share of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such
funds available to the Borrower at its account with the Administrative Agent or as otherwise directed by the Borrower with written notice to the Administrative Agent. 

(b)    Conversions and Continuations. In order to elect to Convert or continue an Advance under this paragraph, the
Borrower shall deliver an irrevocable Notice of Conversion or Continuation to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office no later than 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) (i) on the Business Day of the proposed Conversion
date in the case of a Conversion to a Reference Rate Advance and (ii) at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed Conversion or continuation 

  
 -53- 

 
date in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Advance. Each such Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be in writing or by facsimile or by electronic mail
(with a PDF file of the executed Notice of Conversion or Continuation attached), specifying (i) the requested Conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount and Type of the Advance to be Converted or continued,
(iii) whether a Conversion or continuation is requested and, if a Conversion, into what Type of Advance, and (iv) in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the requested Interest Period. Promptly
after receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation under this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall provide each Lender with a copy thereof and, in the case of a Conversion to or a continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, notify each
Lender of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.09(b). The portion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing that are Converted to Advances of another Type shall constitute a new Borrowing. 

(c)    Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in paragraphs (a) and
(b) above: 
 (i)    at no time shall there be more than eight Interest Periods applicable to outstanding
Eurodollar Rate Advances; 
 (ii)    if any Lender shall, at least one Business Day before the date of any requested
Borrowing, Conversion, or continuation, notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of any Legal Requirement after the date hereof, or any change in or in the interpretation of any Legal Requirement as in effect on the date hereof, makes
it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain
Eurodollar Rate Advances, the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances from such Lender shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and
the Advance made by such Lender in respect of such Borrowing, Conversion, or continuation shall be a Reference Rate Advance; 

(iii)    subject to clause (vii) below, if the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Eurodollar Rate for
Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any requested Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower
and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Reference Rate Advance; 

(iv)    subject to clause (vii) below, if the Majority Lenders shall, at least one Business Day before the date of
any requested Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or funding their respective Eurodollar Rate
Advances, as the case may be, for such Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the
Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Reference Rate Advance; 

(v)    if the Borrower shall fail to select the duration or continuation of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate
Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01 and paragraph (b) above, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such
Advances shall be made available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Rate Advances with an Interest Period of one month or, if an existing Advance, Convert into Reference Rate Advances; 

  
 -54- 

 (vi)    no Borrowing may be made as, continued as or Converted into,
Eurodollar Rate Advances at any time that a Default has occurred and is continuing; and 

(vii)    Effect of Benchmark Transition Event. 

(A)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Hedge
Contract shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.03(c)(vii)) if a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election, or an Other
Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Replacement Rate is determined in accordance
with clause (a)(1) or (a)(2) of the definition of “Replacement Rate” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Replacement Rate will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark
setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Replacement Rate is determined in accordance with clause (a)(3) or
clause (c) of the definition of “Replacement Rate” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Replacement Rate will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or
after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Replacement Rate is provided to the Lenders (with a copy provided to the Borrower) without any
amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Replacement Rate from Lenders
comprising the Majority Lenders. If an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Term SOFR
Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Replacement Rate will replace the then-current Benchmark for all
purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
provided that this clause (A) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver
a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may elect or not elect to do so in its sole discretion. 

(B)    In connection with the implementation of a Replacement Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the
right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become
effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(C)    The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any
occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election, or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (B) the
implementation of any “Replacement Rate”, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to
Section 2.03(c)(vii)(D) below and (E) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any
Lender (or group of Lenders) 

  
 -55- 

 
pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(vii), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or
non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or
their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(vii). 

(D)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time
(including in connection with the implementation of a Replacement Rate), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other
information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or
publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time
to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service
for a Benchmark (including a Replacement Rate) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Replacement Rate), then the Administrative Agent may modify
the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 

(E)    Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period,
the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Rate Advance of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be
deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Reference Rate Advances. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor,
the component of the Adjusted Reference Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Adjusted Reference Rate. 

(F)    On March 5, 2021, the IBA, the administrator of the London interbank offered rate, and the FCA,
the regulatory supervisor of the IBA, made the Announcements that the final publication or representativeness date for Dollars for (I) 1-week and 2-month London
interbank offered rate tenor settings will be December 31, 2021 and (II) overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and
12-month London interbank offered rate tenor settings will be June 30, 2023. No successor administrator for the IBA was identified in such Announcements. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the
Announcements resulted in the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to the London interbank offered rate pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and that any obligation of the Administrative Agent to notify any parties of such
Benchmark Transition Event pursuant to clause (C) of this Section 2.03(c) shall be deemed satisfied. 

(d)    Notices Irrevocable. Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Continuation or Conversion delivered by the
Borrower hereunder, including its deemed request for borrowing made hereunder, shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(e)    Funding by Lenders; Administrative Agent Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from a Lender before the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make 

  
 -56- 

 
available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing
available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.03(a), and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If
and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to immediately repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such
corresponding amount, together with interest on such amount, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the
interest rate applicable on such day to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the lesser of (A) the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) the Maximum Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount and interest as provided above, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute
such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement even though not made on the same day as the other Advances comprising such Borrowing. 

(f)    Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not
in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender, with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the lesser of (i) the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) the Maximum Rate. 

Section 2.04    Termination and Reduction of the Commitments; Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts and Aggregate
Elected Commitment Amounts; Increases and Adjustments to Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts. 
 (a)    Unless
previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date. If at any time the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts or the Aggregate Elected Commitments are, 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)    The Borrower shall
have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ irrevocable notice (provided that, as to a notice of the termination in whole of the Maximum Credit Amounts, such notice 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) to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the
unused portion of the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts or the Aggregate Elected Commitments; provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof, and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts or the Aggregate Elected Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Advances in accordance with Section 2.05(f),
the total Credit Exposure would exceed the total Commitments. Upon any reduction of the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts 

  
 -57- 

 
that would otherwise result in the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts being less than the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be automatically
reduced (ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share) so that they equal the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts as so reduced. 

(c)    Any reduction and termination of the Commitments and Maximum Credit Amounts and/or Aggregate Elected Commitments,
as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be applied ratably to each Lender’s Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts and/or Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, as applicable, and shall be
permanent, with no obligation of the Lenders to reinstate such Commitments, Maximum Credit Amounts, or Elected Commitment. 

(d)    Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.04(e), the Borrower may increase the Aggregate Elected
Commitment Amounts then in effect by increasing the Elected Commitment of a Lender or by causing a Person that is acceptable to the Administrative Agent that at such time is not a Lender to become a Lender (any such Person that is not at such time a
Lender and becomes a Lender, an “Additional Lender”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no case shall an Additional Lender be the Borrower, an Affiliate of the Borrower, any Permitted Holder or
any other holder of Equity Interests in any direct or indirect parent of the Borrower, any Defaulting Lender, or a natural person (or any temporary investment vehicle or revocable trust owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural
person). 
 (e)    Any increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be subject to the following additional
conditions: 
 (i)    such increase shall not be less than the lesser of (i) $25,000,000 and (ii) the amount by
which the Borrowing Base then in effect exceeds the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, and no such increase shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto the Aggregate Elected Commitment
Amounts exceed the lesser of the Borrowing Base then in effect and the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts (with any such increase being null and void); 

(ii)    following any scheduled redetermination of the Borrowing Base, the Borrower may not increase the Aggregate
Elected Commitment Amounts more than once before the next scheduled redetermination of the Borrowing Base; 

(iii)    no Default or Borrowing Base Deficiency shall have occurred and be continuing on the effective date of such
increase (both before and after giving effect to such increase); 
 (iv)    on the effective date of such increase, no
Eurodollar Advances shall be outstanding or if any Eurodollar Advances are outstanding, then the effective date of such increase shall be the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Advances unless the Borrower pays any
breakage compensation as required by this Agreement; 
 (v)    no Lender’s Elected Commitment may be increased
without the written consent of such Lender; 
 (vi)    if the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Elected
Commitment Amounts by increasing the Elected Commitment of a Lender and the Lender so consents in its sole discretion, the Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit L (an “Elected Commitment Increase Certificate”); and 

  
 -58- 

 (vii)    if the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Elected
Commitment Amounts by causing an Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement, then the Borrower and such Additional Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit M
(an “Additional Lender Certificate”), together with an Administrative Questionnaire and a processing and recordation fee of $5,000 (provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, elect to waive such processing
and recordation fee in connection with any such increase), and the Borrower shall (A) if requested by the Additional Lender, deliver a Note payable to such Additional Lender in accordance with this Agreement and (B) pay any applicable fees
as may have been agreed to between the Borrower and the Additional Lender, and, to the extent applicable and agreed to by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent. 

(f)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 2.04(g), from and after the effective date
specified in the Elected Commitment Increase Certificate or the Additional Lender Certificate (or if any Eurodollar Advances are outstanding, then the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Advances, unless the Borrower has
paid any breakage compensation required by this Agreement): (i) the amount of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be increased as set forth therein and (ii) in the case of an Additional Lender Certificate, any Additional Lender party
thereto shall be a party to this Agreement and have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, the Lender or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase a pro rata portion of the
outstanding Advances (and participation interests in Letters of Credit) of each of the other Lenders (and such Lenders hereby agree to sell and to take all such further action to effectuate such sale) such that each Lender (including any Additional
Lender, if applicable) shall hold its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Advances (and participation interests) after giving effect to the increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts (and the resulting modifications of each Lender’s
Commitment pursuant to Section 2.04(g) or Section 2.04(h)). 
 (g)    Upon its receipt of a duly completed
Elected Commitment Increase Certificate or an Additional Lender Certificate, executed by the Borrower and the applicable Lender or by the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, the processing and recording fee referred to
in Section 2.04(e), the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in Section 2.04(e), and the breakage payments from the Borrower, if any, required by this Agreement, if applicable, the Administrative Agent shall, so long as such Elected
Commitment Increase Certificate or Additional Lender Certificate, as applicable, and any resulting increase are in compliance with this Section 2.04, accept such Elected Commitment Increase Certificate or Additional Lender Certificate and
promptly record the information contained therein in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(c). No increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 2.04(g). 
 (h)    Upon any
increase in the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.04, (A) each Lender’s Commitment shall be automatically deemed amended to the extent necessary so that each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate
Commitments equals the percentage of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts represented by such Lender’s Elected Commitment, in each case after giving effect to such increase, and (B) Schedule II to this Agreement shall be deemed
amended to reflect the Elected Commitment of each Lender (including any Additional Lender) as thereby increased, any changes in the Lenders’ aggregate Commitments pursuant to the foregoing clause (A), and any resulting changes in the
Lenders’ Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Commitments. 
 (i)    Upon any redetermination or other adjustment in the
Borrowing Base pursuant to this Agreement that would otherwise result in the Borrowing Base becoming less than the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be automatically reduced (ratably among the
Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Commitments) so that they equal such redetermined Borrowing Base (and Schedule II shall be deemed amended to reflect such amendments to each Lender’s Elected
Commitment and the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts). 

  
 -59- 

 (j)    Contemporaneously with any increase in the Borrowing Base
pursuant to this Agreement and subject to Section 2.04(d), if (i) the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts and (B) each Lender has consented to such increase in its Elected Commitment, then the
Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be increased (ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Commitments) by the amount requested by the Borrower (subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 2.04(f)(i)) without the requirement that any Lender deliver an Elected Commitment Increase Certificate or that the Borrower pay any breakage amounts under this Agreement, and Schedule II shall be deemed amended to reflect such
amendments to each Lender’s Elected Commitment and the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts. The Administrative Agent shall record the information regarding such increases in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to Section 9.07(c). 
 (k)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 9.03, (A)
the Elected Commitment of any Lender cannot be increased without the written consent of such Lender and (B) no provision contained in this Section 2.04(k) may be waived, amended or modified in any manner as to any Lender without the
written consent of such Lender. 
 Section 2.05    Prepayment of Advances. 

(a)    Optional. The Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Advance except as provided
in this Section 2.05(a) and all notices given pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower (provided that any such notice as to the repayment in full of all outstanding Advances 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 payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be made in a manner such that all Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part other than Advances owing to a Defaulting
Lender as provided in Section 2.16. The Borrower may prepay the Advances, after giving by 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time), (i) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, at least three Business Days’ or (ii) in the case of
Reference Rate Advances, same Business Day irrevocable prior written notice to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of such prepayment. If any such notice is given, the Borrower shall prepay the Advances
in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and amounts, if any, required to
be paid pursuant to Section 2.11 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date and without payment of any other premium or penalty; provided, however, that each partial prepayment with respect to: (A) any amounts prepaid in
respect of Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be applied to Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing; (B) any prepayments made in respect of Reference Rate Advances shall be made in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in
integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, and (C) any prepayments made in respect of any Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be made in an aggregate principal amount of at least $2,000,000 and in integral multiples of
$500,000 in excess thereof. Full prepayments of any Borrowing are permitted without restriction of amounts. 

  
 -60- 

 (b)    Borrowing Base Deficiency. 

(i)    Other than as provided in clauses (ii), (iii), and (iv) below, if a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the
Borrower shall, after receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such deficiency, take any of the following actions (and the failure of the Borrower to take such actions to remedy such Borrowing Base Deficiency shall
constitute an election of clause (C) below): 
 (A)    prepay Advances or, if the Advances have been
repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure, such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within 30 days after the date such deficiency notice is received by the
Borrower from the Administrative Agent; 
 (B)    (i) deliver, within 10 days after the date such
deficiency notice is received by the Borrower from the Administrative Agent, written notice to the Administrative Agent indicating the Borrower’s election to pledge as Collateral for the Secured Obligations additional Oil and Gas Properties
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within 30 days after the date such deficiency notice is received by the Borrower from the Administrative Agent and (ii) provide
such pledge of additional Oil and Gas Properties within such time period; 
 (C)    (i) deliver, within
10 days after the date such deficiency notice is received by the Borrower from the Administrative Agent, written notice to the Administrative Agent indicating the Borrower’s election to repay the Advances and make deposits into the Cash
Collateral Account to provide cash collateral for the Letters of Credit, each in five monthly installments equal to one-fifth of such Borrowing Base Deficiency with the first such installment due 30 days after
the date such deficiency notice is received by the Borrower from the Administrative Agent (or such earlier date as agreed to between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) and each following installment due 30 days after the preceding
installment and (ii) make such payments and deposits within such time periods; or 
 (D)    (i)
deliver, within 10 days after the date such deficiency notice is received by the Borrower from the Administrative Agent, written notice to the Administrative Agent indicating the Borrower’s election to combine the options provided in clause
(B) and clause (C) above, and also indicating the amount to be prepaid in installments and the amount to be provided as additional Collateral, and (ii) make such three equal consecutive monthly installments and deliver such additional
Collateral within the time required under clause (B) and clause (C) above. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, (x) unless the Borrower delivers
the requisite written notice to the Administrative Agent of its election under clause (B), (C) or (D) above, the Borrower is deemed to have elected to cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency as provided in clause (C) above, (y) if a scheduled
Borrowing Base redetermination, a Borrowing Base redetermination allowed under Section 2.02(c), or a Borrowing Base redetermination on account of title defects in connection with the Oil and Gas Properties given BB Value (each, an
“Additional Trigger”) occurs during the existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency and an incremental Borrowing Base Deficiency amount results as a result of such Additional Trigger, then the Borrower shall remedy such incremental
Borrowing Base Deficiency pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.05(b)(i), including, if selected by the Borrower, with additional three monthly installments as to such incremental amount, and (z) in any event, all outstanding Advances
shall be paid in full on the Commitment Termination Date and all Letter of Credit Exposure shall be Cash Collateralized in the Minimum Collateral Amount on the Commitment Termination Date. 

  
 -61- 

 (ii)    If, during the existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency, any
Loan Party (or the Administrative Agent as loss payee or assignee) receives Extraordinary Cash Proceeds, whether as one payment or a series of payments, then the Borrower shall, within one Business Day after receipt of such proceeds, prepay the
Borrowings and Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Exposure, in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (i) such Borrowing Base Deficiency and (ii) 100% of such proceeds. 

(iii)    If the Borrowing Base is reduced under Section 2.02(d)(i) and such reduction results in a Borrowing Base
Deficiency, then the Borrower shall (A) with respect to a Disposition, prepay Advances or, if the Advances have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure,
such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within one Business Day after the date the proceeds of such Disposition are received, (B) with respect to a Hedge Event, prepay Advances or, if the Advances have been repaid in full, make
deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure, such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured on the Business Day the proceeds of such Hedge Event are received, and (C) with respect to
a reduction in the Borrowing Base as a result of a notice event triggered under Section 6.01(g), prepay Advances or, if the Advances have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash collateral for the
Letter of Credit Exposure, such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency on account thereof is cured within one Business Day after such reduction in the Borrowing Base. 

(iv)    If the Borrowing Base is reduced under Section 2.02(d)(ii) and such reduction results in a Borrowing Base
Deficiency, then the Borrower shall, immediately upon the effectiveness of such reduction, prepay Advances or, if the Advances have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash collateral for the Letter of
Credit Exposure, in an amount equal to (1) such portion of the Borrowing Base Deficiency resulting from such reduction plus (2) if a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists prior to such reduction, then an amount equal to the lesser of
(i) the proceeds of such Senior Unsecured Note Indebtedness and (ii) such portion of the Borrowing Base Deficiency in existence immediately prior to such reduction. 

(v)    If a Disposition of Oil and Gas Properties or Oil and Gas Related Properties or a Hedge Event occurs during the
period when a Borrowing Base Deficiency already exists, then in addition to the requirement to repay the Advances and make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash collateral for the Letters of Credit to cure any Borrowing Base
Deficiency occurring as a result thereof (as provided in clause (iii) above), the Borrower shall apply any remaining proceeds resulting from such Disposition or Hedge Event on the date such proceeds are received as prepayments of all unpaid
monthly installments or payments required under this Section 2.05(b), applied pro rata to such payments. 

(vi)    [Reserved]. 

(vii)    Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the
amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.11 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date. Each prepayment under this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied to the
Advances as determined by the Administrative Agent and agreed to by the Lenders in their sole discretion. 

(c)    [Reserved]. 

(d)    [Reserved]. 

(e)    [Reserved]. 

  
 -62- 

 (f)    Reduction of Maximum Credit Amounts. On the date of each
reduction of the aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts or Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts pursuant to Section 2.04 (other than a reduction of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts pursuant to Section 2.04(i), which shall be governed by
the terms of Section 2.05(b) above), the Borrower agrees to make a prepayment in respect of the outstanding amount of the Advances, and if the Advances have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide cash
collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure, such that, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Advances plus the Letter of Credit Exposure that has not been Cash Collateralized does not exceed the aggregate Commitments, as so reduced.
Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05(f) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.11 as a result of such
prepayment being made on such date. Each prepayment under this Section 2.05(f) shall be applied first to Reference Rate Advances and then to Eurodollar Rate Advances. 

(g)    Excess Cash. If, at any time when Credit Exposure is greater than zero, the Consolidated Cash Balance
exceeds the Consolidated Cash Balance Limit (Weekly) as of the end of the last Business Day of any calendar week, then the Borrower shall, on the immediately following Consolidated Cash Sweep Date, prepay the Advances in an aggregate principal
amount equal to such excess, and, if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Advances and there is any Letter of Credit Exposure, Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Exposure in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) such excess and
(ii) the amount of the Letter of Credit Exposure that is not Cash Collateralized at such time. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05(g) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such
prepayment. Each prepayment under this Section 2.05(g) shall be applied first to Reference Rate Advances and then to Eurodollar Rate Advances. The requirements set forth in this clause (g) may be waived by the Required Lenders. 

(h)    Ratable Prepayment. Each payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be made in a manner
such that all Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part. 
 (i)    Interest
and Costs. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.11 as a
result of such prepayment being made on such date. 
 Section 2.06    Repayment of Advances. The Borrower
shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of each Advance, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the Commitment Termination Date. 

Section 2.07    Letters of Credit. 

(a)    Commitment for Letters of Credit. The Issuing Lender, the Lenders, Holdings, and the Borrower each agrees
that effective as of the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement. The Issuing Lender, the Lenders, Holdings, and the
Borrower each agrees that effective as of the Amendment No. 11 Effective Date, the Citibank Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement. Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Issuing Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.07, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing
Date until the Commitment Termination Date, to issue, increase or extend the Expiration Date of Letters of Credit for the account of any Loan Party, provided that no Letter of Credit will be issued, increased, or extended: 

(i)    if such issuance, increase, or extension would cause the Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the lesser of (A)
$25,000,000 and (B) an amount equal to (1) the Commitments in effect at such time minus (2) the sum of the aggregate outstanding amount of all Advances; 

  
 -63- 

 (ii)    unless such Letter of Credit has an Expiration Date not later
than the earlier of (A) 12 months after its issuance or extension and (B) five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date (an “Acceptable Letter of Credit Maturity Date”); provided that, (1) if the Commitments
are terminated in whole pursuant to Section 2.04, the Borrower shall either (A) deposit into the Cash Collateral Account cash in an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount for the Letters of Credit which have an expiry date beyond
the date the Commitments are terminated or (B) provide a replacement letter of credit (or other security) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount, and
(2) any such Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may expressly provide for an automatic extension of one additional year so long as such Letter of Credit expressly allows the Issuing Lender, at its
sole discretion, to elect not to provide such extension within the time periods agreed to in the applicable Letter of Credit; provided that, in any event, such automatic extension may not result in an Expiration Date that occurs after the fifth
Business Day prior to the Maturity Date; 
 (iii)    unless such Letter of Credit is a standby letter of credit not
supporting the repayment of indebtedness for borrowed money of any Person; 
 (iv)    unless such Letter of Credit is
in form and substance acceptable to the Issuing Lender in its sole discretion exercised in good faith; 
 (v)    unless
the Borrower has delivered to the Issuing Lender a completed and executed Letter of Credit Application; 

(vi)    unless such Letter of Credit is governed by (A) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits
(2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, or (B) the International Standby Practices (ISP98), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590, in either case, including any subsequent revisions
thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce and adhered to by the Issuing Lender; 

(vii)    if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to
enjoin or restrain the Issuing Lender from issuing, increasing or extending such Letter of Credit, or any Legal Requirement applicable to the Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental
Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance, increase or extension of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the
Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the date hereof, or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender any
unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the date hereof and which the Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it; 

(viii)    if the issuance, increase or extension of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the
Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally; 
 (ix)    if Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a
currency other than Dollars; 

  
 -64- 

 (x)    if such Letter of Credit supports the obligations of any Person
in respect of (x) a lease of real property, or (y) an employment contract if the Issuing Lender reasonably determines that the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse any draws under such Letter of Credit may be limited; or 

(xi)    any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless such Defaulting Lender’s Fronting Exposure
as to Letters of Credit has been fully reallocated or Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 2.16 below or the Issuing Lender has entered into other satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing
Lender’s risk with respect to such Lender. 
 (b)    Requesting Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit
(other than the issuance of Existing Letters of Credit and the Citibank Letters of Credit which are deemed issued hereunder) shall be issued, increased or extended pursuant to a Letter of Credit Application given by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender by facsimile, electronic mail or other writing not later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the third Business Day before the proposed date of issuance, increase or extension for the Letter of
Credit. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be fully completed and shall specify the information required therein. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
the Issuing Lender shall before 2:00 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the date of such Letter of Credit Application issue, increase or extend such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit. 

(c)    Reimbursements for Letters of Credit; Funding of Participations. 

(i)    With respect to any Letter of Credit, in accordance with the related Letter of Credit Application, the Borrower
agrees to pay on the Business Day the Borrower receives notice of such drawing from the Issuing Bank if such notice is received by the Borrower prior to 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) or, if such notice is received after 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas
time), then on the Business Day following such notice to the Administrative Agent (the applicable date, the “LC Payment Date”) on behalf of the Issuing Lender an amount equal to any amount paid by the Issuing Lender under such
Letter of Credit. Upon the Issuing Lender’s demand for payment under the terms of a Letter of Credit Application, the Borrower may, with a written notice, request that the Borrower’s obligations to the Issuing Lender thereunder be
satisfied with the proceeds of an Advance in the same amount (notwithstanding any minimum size or increment limitations on individual Advances). If the Borrower does not make such request and does not otherwise make the payments demanded by the
Issuing Lender as required under this Agreement or the Letter of Credit Application, then the Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have requested such an Advance in the same amount and the transfer of the proceeds thereof
to satisfy the Borrower’s obligations to the Issuing Lender, and the Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs the Lenders to make such Advance, to transfer the proceeds thereof to the Issuing Lender in
satisfaction of such obligations, and to record and otherwise treat such payments as an Advance to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent and each Lender may record and otherwise treat the making of such Borrowings as the making of a Borrowing to
the Borrower under this Agreement as if requested by the Borrower. Nothing herein is intended to release any of the Borrower’s obligations under any Letter of Credit Application, but only to provide an additional method of payment therefor. The
making of any Borrowing under this Section 2.07(c) shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any Default, other than the payment Default which is satisfied by the application of the amounts deemed advanced hereunder, caused by the
Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Agreement or the Letter of Credit Application. 

(ii)    Each Lender (including the Lender acting as Issuing Lender) shall, upon notice from the Administrative Agent that
the Borrower has requested or is deemed to have requested an Advance pursuant to Section 2.03 and regardless of whether (A) the conditions in Section 3.02 have been met, (B) such notice complies with Section 2.03, or
(C) a Default exists, make funds available to the 

  
 -65- 

 
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of such Advance not later than 1:00 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on
the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent if such notice is sent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on such day (or not later than 1:00 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the immediately following Business Day if
such notice is sent later than 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time)), whereupon each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made an Advance to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received
to the Issuing Lender. 
 (iii)    Until all the Lenders shall have made their respective Advances available to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.07 or the Borrower has otherwise made a payment to the Issuing Lender of all unpaid Letter of Credit Obligations, (x) the unpaid Letter of Credit Obligations then due from the Borrower (but
in any case, only after the LC Payment Date) shall bear interest at the lesser of (A) the Default Rate and (B) the Maximum Rate for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is made and such
interest shall be payable as provided in Section 2.09(c) and (y) to the extent the Borrower has not paid such interest or is not required to pay such interest, then each Lender that has not made the Advances available to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Section 2.07(c) agrees to pay interest on the amount that such Lender was required to make hereunder from such date such amount was due until the date such amount is paid to the Issuing Lender (either by such Lender or by
the Borrower) at the lesser of (A) the Federal Funds Rate for such day for the first three days and thereafter the interest rate applicable to the Advance and (B) the Maximum Rate. Whenever, at any time after the Administrative Agent has
received from any Lender such Lender’s Advance, the Administrative Agent receives any payment on account thereof, the Administrative Agent will pay to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of
interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s Advance was outstanding and funded), which payment shall be subject to repayment by such Lender if such payment received by the Administrative Agent is required to be
returned. Each Lender’s obligation to make the Advance pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have against the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuance of a Default
or the termination of the Commitments; (3) any breach of this Agreement by Holdings, any Loan Party or any other Lender; or (4) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 

(iv)    If at any time, the Commitments shall have expired or shall have been terminated while any Letter of Credit
Exposure is outstanding, each Lender, at the sole option of the Issuing Lender, shall fund its participation in such Letters of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the unpaid amount of the Borrower’s payment
obligations under drawn Letters of Credit. The Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent, and in turn, the Administrative Agent shall notify each such Lender of the amount of such participation, and such Lender will transfer to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender on the next Business Day following such notice, in immediately available funds, the amount of such participation. At any time after the Issuing Lender has made a payment under any Letter of
Credit and has received from any Lender funding of its participation in respect of such payment in accordance with this clause (iv), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the Issuing Lender any payment in respect of the related
Letter of Credit Exposure or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of cash collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent shall distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata
Share thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 
 (d)    Participations. Upon the
date of the issuance or increase of a Letter of Credit or the deemed issuance of the Existing Letters of Credit and the Citibank Letters of Credit under Section 2.07(a), the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold to each other Lender and
each other Lender shall 

  
 -66- 

 
have been deemed to have purchased from the Issuing Lender a participation in the related Letter of Credit Obligations equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share at such date and such sale and
purchase shall otherwise be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Issuing Lender shall promptly notify each such participant Lender by facsimile, telephone, or electronic mail (PDF) of each Letter of Credit issued or increased and the
actual dollar amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit. 
 (e)    Obligations
Unconditional. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement in respect of each Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances,
notwithstanding the following circumstances: 
 (i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit
Documents; 
 (ii)    any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Letter of Credit Documents; 

(iii)    the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which
Holdings or any Loan Party or Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any
other person or entity, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or in any Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; 

(iv)    any statement or any other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent,
invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect to the extent the Issuing Lender would not be liable therefor pursuant to the following paragraph (g); 

(v)    payment by the Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which
does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or 
 (vi)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; 
 provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph (e) shall be deemed to constitute
a waiver of any remedies of the Borrower in connection with the Letters of Credit, including, without limitation, those remedies specified in paragraph (g) below. 

(f)    Prepayments of Letters of Credit. In the event that any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or shall be
drawn and not reimbursed on or prior to the Acceptable Letter of Credit Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount allocable to such Letter of Credit, such amount to be due and
payable on the Acceptable Letter of Credit Maturity Date, and to be held in the Cash Collateral Account and applied in accordance with paragraph (h) below. 

(g)    Liability of Issuing Lender. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or
transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Issuing Lender nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: 

(i)    the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in
connection therewith; 

  
 -67- 

 (ii)    the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of
any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; 

(iii)    payment by the Issuing Lender against presentation of documents which do not comply with the terms of a Letter
of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the relevant Letter of Credit; or 

(iv)    any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit
(INCLUDING THE ISSUING LENDER’S OWN NEGLIGENCE), 
 except that the Borrower shall have a claim against the Issuing Lender, and the
Issuing Lender shall be liable to, and shall promptly pay to, the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, as opposed to consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower which were caused by the Issuing Lender’s willful misconduct or gross
negligence (as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of
Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the
contrary. 
 (h)    Cash Collateral Account. 

(i)    If the Borrower is required to deposit funds in the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to Sections 2.04(d), 2.05(b),
7.02(b), 7.03(b) or any other provision under this Agreement, then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall establish the Cash Collateral Account and the Borrower shall execute any documents and agreements, including the Administrative
Agent’s standard form assignment of Deposit Accounts, that the Administrative Agent requests in connection therewith to establish the Cash Collateral Account and grant the Administrative Agent a first priority (subject to inchoate tax liens),
perfected Lien in such account and the funds therein. The Borrower hereby pledges to the Administrative Agent and grants the Administrative Agent a security interest in the Cash Collateral Account, whenever established, all funds held in the Cash
Collateral Account from time to time, and all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Secured Obligations. The Borrower hereby agrees to maintain a first priority (subject to inchoate tax liens) security interest in all the Cash
Collateral Account and such Cash Collateral as security for the Secured Obligations and as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Exposure, to be applied pursuant to
Section 2.07(i)(ii) below. 
 (ii)    Funds held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be held as cash collateral
for obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and promptly applied by the Administrative Agent at the request of the Issuing Lender to any reimbursement or other obligations under Letters of Credit that exist or occur. To the extent that any
surplus funds are held in the Cash Collateral Account above the Letter of Credit Exposure during the existence of an Event of Default the Administrative Agent may (A) hold such surplus funds in the Cash Collateral Account as cash collateral for
the Obligations or (B) apply such surplus funds to any Obligations in any manner directed by the Majority Lenders. If no Default exists, then at the Borrower’s written request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly release any surplus
funds held in the Cash Collateral Account above the Minimum Collateral Amount so long as the release thereof would not result in a Borrowing Base Deficiency (without giving effect to the proviso set forth in the definition thereof). 

(iii)    Funds held in the Cash Collateral Account may be invested in Liquid Investments maintained with, and under the
sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent or in 

  
 -68- 

 
another investment if mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, but the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any investment of the funds therein. The
Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Cash Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to
that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any such funds.

 (i)    Defaulting Lender. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day
following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender
(determined after giving effect to Section 2.16 and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. 

(i)    Grant of Security Interest by Defaulting Lender; Agreement to Provide Cash Collateral. To the extent cash
collateral is provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as
security for such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below.    Such Defaulting Lender shall execute any documents and
agreements, including the Administrative Agent’s standard form assignment of Deposit Accounts, that the Administrative Agent requests in connection therewith to establish such cash collateral account and to grant the Administrative Agent a
first priority security interest in such account and the funds therein. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender
as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash
Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). 

(ii)    Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral
provided under this Section 2.07(i) or Section 2.16 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Exposure (including,
as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. 

(iii)    Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the
Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.07(i) following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of
Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.16, the Person providing
Cash Collateral and the Issuing Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the
Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents. 

(iv)    Letters of Credit Issued for Guarantors or any Subsidiary. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued
or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account 

  
 -69- 

 
of, a Guarantor or any Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit issued hereunder by the Issuing
Lender. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any Guarantor, the Borrower or any Subsidiary inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business (indirectly or directly)
derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such other Persons. 
 Section 2.08    Fees. 

(a)    Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a
commitment fee at a per annum rate equal to the Commitment Fee Rate on the daily amount by which (i) such Lender’s Commitment then in effect exceeds (ii) the sum of such Lender’s outstanding Advances plus such Lender’s Pro
Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Exposure, from the Closing Date until the Commitment Termination Date; provided that, no commitment fee shall accrue on the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period such Lender remains a
Defaulting Lender. The commitment fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September, and December commencing on September 30, 2016, and continuing thereafter through and including the Commitment
Termination Date. 
 (b)    Letter of Credit Fees. 

(i)    Subject to Section 2.16, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of
the Lenders, a per annum letter of credit fee for each Letter of Credit issued hereunder in an amount equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect for Eurodollar Rate Advances times the face amount of such Letter of Credit, during the period such
Letter of Credit is in effect, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September, and December commencing on September 30, 2016 and continuing thereafter through and including the Commitment Termination Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), Section 7.01(c) (but only as to a breach of Section 5.06(i)), or Section 7.01(e), the foregoing
per annum letter of credit fee shall be increased to the Default Rate, after as well as before judgment, and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (including under Section 7.01(a) or
Section 7.01(e)), upon the request of the Majority Lenders, the foregoing per annum letter of credit fee shall be increased to the Default Rate, after as well as before judgment. 

(ii)    The Borrower also agrees to pay to the Issuing Lender, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit
issued by the Issuing Lender hereunder equal to the greater of (x) $700 per annum or (y) 0.25% per annum times the face amount of such Letter of Credit, during the period such Letter of Credit is in effect, payable quarterly in arrears on the last
day of each March, June, September, and December commencing on September 30, 2016 and continuing thereafter through and including the Commitment Termination Date. 

(iii)    The Borrower also agrees to pay to the Issuing Lender such other usual and customary fees associated with any
transfers, amendments, drawings, negotiations or reissuances of any Letters of Credit. Such fees shall be due and payable as requested by the Issuing Lender in accordance with the Issuing Lender’s then current fee policy. 

(iv)    The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to refund any letter of credit fees previously paid by the Borrower,
including any refund claimed because any Letter of Credit is canceled prior to its Expiration Date. 

  
 -70- 

 (c)    Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to Wells Fargo and
the other parties thereto, as applicable, the fees provided for in the Fee Letters. 

Section 2.09    Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made
by each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: 

(a)    Reference Rate Advances. Each Reference Rate Advance shall bear interest at the Adjusted Reference Rate in
effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Reference Rate Advances in effect from time to time. The Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender all accrued but unpaid interest on such Lender’s
Reference Rate Advances, quarterly in arrears, on each March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st, commencing on September 30, 2016, on the date such Reference Rate Advance
shall be paid in full and on the Commitment Termination Date. 
 (b)    Eurodollar Rate Advances. Each Eurodollar
Rate Advance shall bear interest during its Interest Period equal to at all times the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances for such period. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the ratable account of each Lender all accrued but unpaid interest on each of such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Advances on the last day of the Interest Period therefor (and in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Advance with an Interest Period
of more than three months’ duration, on each day prior to the last day of such Interest Period that occurs at intervals of three months’ duration after the first day of such Interest Period), on the date any Eurodollar Rate Advance is
repaid, and on the Commitment Termination Date. 
 (c)    Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(i) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), Section 7.01(c) (but only as to a breach of Section 5.06(i)), or Section 7.01(e), all Obligations shall bear interest, after as
well as before judgment, at the Default Rate and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default addressed in the foregoing clause (i)), upon the request of the Majority Lenders, all
Obligations shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Default Rate. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.09(c) and all interest accrued but unpaid on or after the Commitment Termination Date shall be due and payable
on demand (and if no such demand is made, then due and payable on the otherwise due dates provided herein or if no such due dates are provided herein on the last day of each calendar quarter). Interest shall continue to accrue on the Obligations
after the filing by or against Holdings or any Loan Party of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any Debtor Relief Law. 

Section 2.10    Illegality. If any Lender in its good faith judgment shall notify the Borrower that, after the
date hereof, the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Legal Requirement makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending
Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make, maintain, or fund any Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Lender then outstanding hereunder, (a) the Borrower shall, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas, time) (i) if not
prohibited by law, on the last day of the Interest Period for each outstanding Eurodollar Rate Advance or (ii) if required by such notice, on the second Business Day following its receipt of such notice, prepay all of the Eurodollar Rate
Advances of such Lender then outstanding, together with accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.11 as a result of such prepayment
being made on such date, (b) such Lender shall simultaneously make a Reference Rate Advance to the Borrower on such date in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Rate Advances prepaid to such Lender, and
(c) the right of 

  
 -71- 

 
the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances from such Lender for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such
suspension no longer exist. Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid
the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 

Section 2.11    Breakage Costs. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time
to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

(a)    any continuation, Conversion, payment or prepayment (including any deemed payment or repayment and any reallocated
repayment to Non-Defaulting Lenders provided for herein) of any Advance other than a Reference Rate Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance (whether voluntary,
mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise). 
 (b)    any failure by the Borrower (for a reason
other than the failure of such Lender to make an Advance) to prepay, borrow, continue or Convert any Advance other than a Reference Rate Advance on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or 

(c)    any assignment of an Eurodollar Rate Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a
result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.15; 
 including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or
expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Advance, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. The
Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 2.11, the requesting Lender shall
be deemed to have funded the Eurodollar Rate Advances made by it at the Eurodollar Base Rate used in determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Advance by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for Dollars for a
comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Advance was in fact so funded. 

Section 2.12    Increased Costs. 

(a)    Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i)    impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) (except any reserve requirement included in the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage) or the
Issuing Lender; 
 (ii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes
described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or
capital attributable thereto; or 
 (iii)    impose on any Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) or the Issuing
Lender on the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Advances made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

  
 -72- 

 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender (or its applicable
Lending Office) or such other Recipient of making, Converting to, continuing or maintaining any loan or of maintaining its obligation to make or accept and purchase any such loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Lender or such
other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its
applicable Lending Office), the Issuing Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Issuing Lender or such other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such
Lender, the Issuing Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Issuing Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction
suffered. 
 (b)    Capital/Liquidity Requirements. If any Lender or Issuing Lender determines that any Change in
Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of financial institutions generally, including such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company or any corporation controlling such Lender or the Issuing
Lender, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Advances made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that
which such Lender, the Issuing Lender, the corporation controlling such Lender or the Issuing Lender, or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such
Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s policies, the policies of the corporation controlling such Lender or the Issuing Lender, and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then
from time to time within ten Business Days after written demand by such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
the Issuing Lender, the corporation controlling such Lender or the Issuing Lender, or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c)    Certificate. Any Lender or Issuing Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.12 shall furnish
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a statement setting forth the additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender as specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.12 hereunder which shall be determined by
such Lender in good faith and which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the
case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof. 

(d)    Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender
pursuant to this Section 2.12 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive,
then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 

  
 -73- 

 Section 2.13    Payments and Computations. 

(a)    Payments. All payments of principal, interest, and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this
Agreement and other Loan Documents shall be made to the Administrative Agent in Dollars and in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim. 

(b)    Payment Procedures. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later
than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the location referred to in the Notes (or such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to the Borrower) in same
day funds and, as to payments of principal, accompanied by a notice of optional payment from the Borrower, with appropriate insertions and executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter, and in
any event prior to the close of business on the day any timely payment is made, cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent or a
specific Lender pursuant to Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.15, and 9.02 and such other provisions herein which expressly provide for payments to a specific Lender, but after taking into account payments effected pursuant to Section 7.04) in
accordance with each Lender’s applicable pro rata share to the Lenders for the account of their respective applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the
account of its applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon receipt of other amounts due solely to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or a specific Lender, the Administrative
Agent shall distribute such amounts to the appropriate party to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(c)    Non-Business Day Payments. Whenever any payment shall be
stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be;
provided that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 

(d)    Computations. Computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of,
(a) with respect to Eurodollar Rate Advances and Reference Rate Advances based on the Federal Funds Rate and the Eurodollar Rate, a year of 360 days and (b) with respect to Reference Rate Advances based on the Reference Rate, a year of
365/366 days, and (c) with respect to of all other interest and fees, on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case, for the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an amount of interest or fees shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(e)    Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or
otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other Obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued but unpaid
interest thereon or other such Obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) take an assignment of,
or purchase participations in, (in any event, for cash at face value) the Advances and such other Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on their respective Advances and other amounts owing them; provided that: 

(i)    if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered,
such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 

  
 -74- 

 (ii)    the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to
apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a
Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances or participations in Letter of Credit Exposure to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any Affiliate of any of
the foregoing (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). 
 Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may
effectively do so under applicable Legal Requirement, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully
as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation. 

Section 2.14    Taxes. 

(a)    Issuing Lender. For purposes of this Section 2.14, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing
Lender and the term “applicable Legal Requirement” includes FATCA. 
 (b)    Payments Free of Taxes.
Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Legal Requirement. If any applicable Legal Requirement
requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to
the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirement and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding
has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(d)    Indemnification by Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient,
within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be
withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. 
 (e)    Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the
Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to 

  
 -75- 

 
such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to
do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each
case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set
off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph
(e). 
 (f)    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a
Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(g)    Status of Lenders. 

(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made
under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such
other documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 2.14(g)(ii)(A) and (ii)(B) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially
prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person, 
 (A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed
copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) 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

  
 -76- 

 
respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable
payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or
reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; (ii) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; (iii) 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 J-1 to the
effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a
“controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable); or (iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 or Exhibit J-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 J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect
partner; 
 (C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the
reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement 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 Legal Requirement to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D)    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 Legal Requirement and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement (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 (D), “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

  
 -77- 

 (h)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in
its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the
indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to
pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would
have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This
paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

(i)    Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

Section 2.15    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or
requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable
efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation
or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.14, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b)    Replacement Lender. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12 or notifies the Borrower of
its inability to make, maintain, or fund any Eurodollar Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.10, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any
Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.15(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (and in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent may) upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require
such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.07), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to
Section 2.12 or Section 2.14) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
provided that: 
 (i)    As to assignments required by the Borrower, the Borrower shall have paid to the
Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 9.07, unless such fee has been waived by the Administrative Agent; 

  
 -78- 

 (ii)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to
the outstanding principal of its applicable Advances and participations in Letter of Credit Obligations, accrued but unpaid interest thereon, accrued but unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
(including any amounts under Section 2.11) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 

(iii)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or such
Lender’s inability to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments
thereafter; 
 (iv)    such assignment does not conflict with any applicable Legal Requirement; and 

(v)    with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender, the proposed amendment,
modification, waiver, consent or release with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document has been approved by the Required Lenders or Majority Lenders, as applicable, and such agreement, amendment, waiver, consent or release can be
effected as a result of such assignment (and, if applicable, one or more other assignments) contemplated by this Section. 
 A Lender shall not be required
to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Solely
for purposes of effecting any assignment involving a Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender under this Section 2.15 and to the extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, each Lender hereby
designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, for and on behalf of and in the
name of such Lender to execute, acknowledge and deliver the Assignment and Acceptance required hereunder if such Lender is a Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender and such Lender shall be bound thereby as
fully and effectively as if such Lender had personally executed, acknowledged and delivered the same. 

Section 2.16    Defaulting Lender. 

(a)    Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any
Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement: 

(i)    Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver
or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders and the definition of Required Lenders. 

(ii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall. 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 VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 7.04 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

  
 -79- 

 
rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such
Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.07), if any, with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance hereunder 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 current or potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lender’s
future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.07; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the
Issuing Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Lender 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 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 Advances or Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued
at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of, and Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting
Lenders on the applicable pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of, or Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of
Credit Obligations are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv). 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 2.16 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii)    Certain Fees. 

(A)    No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which
that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(B)    Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees under Section 2.08(b) for any period
during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.07. 

(C)    With respect to any fee under Section 2.08(b) not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender
pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting
Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Exposure that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Lender the amount of any such fee
otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. 

  
 -80- 

 (iv)    Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting
Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata
Share (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 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), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Credit Exposure of
any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment then in effect. Subject to Section 9.29, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute
a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender 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. 

(v)    Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be
effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under Legal Requirement, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.07. 
 (b)    Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Issuing
Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which
may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine
to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv), whereupon such Lender will
cease to be a Defaulting Lender; 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. Notwithstanding the above, the Borrower’s and the Administrative Agent’s right to replace a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Agreement shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies
available to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent against such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, at law, in equity or by statute. 

(c)    Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to
issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority will be required for such Credit Extension or the use of the proceeds of such Credit Extension.

basis the assets, liabilities and financial position of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as at such dates, and the results of the operations and changes of financial position for the periods then ended (other than customary year-end adjustments for unaudited financial statements and the absence of footnotes from unaudited financial statements), in each case, in accordance with GAAP. All such financial statements, including the related
schedules and notes thereto, have been (or will have been when delivered) prepared in accordance with GAAP. Such financial statements show (or will show when delivered) all material indebtedness and other material liabilities, direct or contingent,
of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof, including material liabilities for taxes, material commitments, and Indebtedness, in each case, to the extent required to be disclosed under GAAP. All pro forma financial statements and
projections delivered pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 5.06 were (or will be when delivered) prepared in good faith on the basis of the assumptions stated therein, which assumptions are believed to be reasonable in light of then
existing conditions except that such financial projections and pro forma statements shall be subject to normal year end closing and audit adjustments (it being recognized by the Lenders that projections are not to be viewed as facts and that the
actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections may vary from such projections). 
 (b)    Since
the Closing Date, no event or circumstance that has had or could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change has occurred. 

Section 4.06    True and Complete Disclosure. All factual information (excluding estimates, projections, other
projected financial information, forward looking statements and information of a general economic or industry nature) heretofore or contemporaneously furnished by or on behalf of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in writing to any Lender or the

financial information, forward looking statements and information of a general economic or industry nature) hereafter furnished by or on behalf of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in writing to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders was or
shall be, when taken as a whole and as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished, true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information was or is dated or certified and did not or does not contain, when
taken as a whole, any untrue statement of a material fact or omit, when taken as a whole, to state any material fact 

  
 -88- 

 
necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in any material respect at such time. All projections, estimates, and pro forma financial information furnished by Holdings or
any Loan Party were prepared in good faith on the basis of the assumptions believed in good faith to be reasonable at the time made, which assumptions are believed to be reasonable in light of then existing conditions except that such financial
projections and statements shall be subject to normal year end closing and audit adjustments (it being recognized by the Lenders that projections are not to be viewed as facts or a guarantee of future performance, are subject to significant
uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Holdings or the Loan Parties’ control and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections may vary from such projections and such variations may be
material). The information included in any Beneficial Ownership Certification provided to any Lender in connection with this Agreement is true and correct in all respects as of the date delivered. 

Section 4.07    Litigation; Compliance with Laws. 

(a)    There is no pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any Loan Party, threatened in writing action or proceeding
affecting Holdings, any Loan Party or Subsidiary before any court, Governmental Authority or arbitrator which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change other than as set forth in Schedule 4.07 or which purports to affect
the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement, any Note, or any other Loan Document. As of the Amendment No. 11 Effective Date, there is no pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any Loan Party, threatened in
writing action or proceeding instituted against Holdings, any Loan Party or any Subsidiary which seeks to adjudicate Holdings, any Loan Party or any Subsidiary as bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief, or composition of it or its debts under any Debtor Relief Law, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or other similar official for it or for any substantial
part of its Property. 
 (b)    Holdings, each Loan Party and each Subsidiary have complied in all respects with all
statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the conduct of their respective businesses or the ownership of their respective Property except where such failure to comply could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 
 Section 4.08    Use of Proceeds. The
proceeds of any Credit Extension will be used by the Borrower for the purposes described in Section 5.09. Neither Holdings nor any Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is engaged principally or as one of its activities in the business of
extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” (as each such term is defined or used, directly or indirectly, in Regulation U). No part of the proceeds of any Credit Extension will be
used for purchasing or carrying directly or indirectly margin stock or for any purpose which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X or for any other purpose which would constitute this transaction a
“purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U. Following the application of the proceeds of each Credit Extension, not more than twenty-five percent (25.0%) of the value of the assets (either of the Borrower only or of Holdings and
its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) will be “margin stock”.    Neither Holdings nor any Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof (a) is engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing
or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U) or (b) will use any proceeds for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock or for any other purpose which would constitute this transaction a “purpose
credit”. 
 Section 4.09    Investment Company Act. Neither Holdings nor any Loan Party is an
“investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” (as each such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended).

 Section 4.10    Taxes. 

(a)    Reports and Payments. All federal and all other material Returns (as defined below in clause (b) of this
Section) required to be filed by or on behalf of Holdings or any Loan Party (or with respect to the assets or activities thereof, in the case of any Loan Party that is disregarded as separate from its owner for applicable Tax purposes) or any member
of a group that joins in the filing of a consolidated, unitary, combined, affiliated or similar Tax group that includes a Loan Party (hereafter collectively called the “Tax Group”) have been duly filed on a timely basis or
appropriate extensions have been obtained and such Returns are and will be true, complete and correct in all material respects; and all material Taxes payable with respect to the periods covered by such Returns or on subsequent assessments with
respect thereto or otherwise have or will be paid in full on a timely basis, except in each case to the extent of Taxes that are being diligently contested in good faith and reserves have been made in accordance with GAAP. The reserves for accrued
Taxes reflected in the financial statements delivered to the Lenders under this Agreement are adequate in the aggregate for the payment of all unpaid Taxes, whether or not disputed, for the period ended as of the date thereof and for any period
prior thereto, and for which the Tax Group may be liable in its own right, as withholding agent or as a transferee of the assets of, or successor to, any Person. 

(b)    Returns Definition. “Returns” in this Section 4.10 shall mean any U.S. federal, state, or
local report, declaration of estimated Tax, information statement or return relating to, filed, or required to be filed in connection with, any Taxes, including any information return or report with respect to backup withholding or other payments of
third parties. 
 Section 4.11    ERISA and Employee Matters. Other than as could not reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Change, all Employee Benefit Plans are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code. No Termination Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that could
reasonably be expected to result in liability to Holdings, any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof in excess of $25,000,000. There has been no excise tax imposed under Section 4971 of the Code against Holdings or any Loan Party that could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. Based upon GAAP existing as of the date of this Agreement and current factual circumstances, neither Holdings nor any Loan Party has any reason to believe that the annual cost during the
term of this Agreement to Holdings and the Loan Parties for post-retirement benefits to be provided to the current and former employees of Holdings or any Loan Party under Employee Benefit Plans that are welfare benefit plans (as defined in
Section 3(1) of ERISA) could, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. As of the Amendment No. 11 Effective Date, neither Holdings nor any Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is party to any collective
bargaining agreement, nor has any labor union been recognized as the representative of its employees. Neither Holdings nor the Borrower knows of no pending or threatened in writing strikes, work stoppage or other collective labor disputes involving
its employees or those of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 

Section 4.12    Condition and Maintenance of Property; Casualties. Holdings and each Subsidiary has good and
defensible title to all of its other material Properties, free and clear of all Liens except for Permitted Liens. The material Properties used or to be used in the continuing operations of Holdings and each Subsidiary are in good repair, working
order and condition, normal wear and tear excepted. Neither the business nor the material Properties of Holdings and each Subsidiary, taken as a whole, has been materially and adversely affected as a result of any fire, explosion, earthquake, flood,
drought, windstorm, accident, strike or other labor disturbance, embargo, requisition or taking of Property or cancellation of contracts, Permits, or concessions by a Governmental Authority, riot, activities of armed forces, or acts of God or of any
public enemy (except to the extent such event is covered by insurance sufficient to ensure that upon application of the proceeds thereof, neither the business nor the material Properties of Holdings and each Subsidiary, taken as a whole, could
reasonably be expected to be materially and adversely affected) which effect could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

 (a)    Neither Holdings nor any Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is in default in any material respect under or
with respect to any contract, agreement, lease, or other instrument to which Holdings, any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof is a party which is continuing and which, if not cured, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Change. 
 (b)    No Default has occurred and is continuing.

its current or former Subsidiaries, wherever located, (i) has been placed on the National Priorities List, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation Liability Information System list, or their state or local analogs, or to
Holdings’ or any Loan Party’s knowledge, have been otherwise investigated, designated, listed, or identified as a potential site for removal, remediation, cleanup, closure, restoration, reclamation, or other Response activity under any
Environmental Laws which, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; (ii) is subject to a Lien, arising under or in connection with any Environmental Laws, that
attaches to any revenues or to any Property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors or Subsidiaries, wherever located, which could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Change; or (iii) has been the site of any Release of Hazardous Materials from present or past operations which has caused at the site or at any third-party site any condition that, individually or in the
aggregate, has resulted in or could reasonably be expected to result in the need for Response that would cause a Material Adverse Change. 

(c)    Certain Actions. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) all necessary notices have been properly filed,
and no further action is required under current Environmental Law as to each Response or other restoration or remedial project undertaken by Holdings or any Subsidiary on any of their presently or formerly owned, leased or operated Property, except
as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, and (ii) to the knowledge of Holdings or any Subsidiary, there are no facts, circumstances, conditions or occurrences with respect to
any Property owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to form the basis of an Environmental Claim under Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

 Section 4.15    Permits, Licenses, Etc. Holdings and each Subsidiary thereof possess all authorizations,
Permits, licenses, patents, patent rights or licenses, trademarks, trademark rights, trade names rights and copyrights which are material to the conduct of their business. Holdings and each Subsidiary thereof manages and operates its business in all
material respects in accordance with all applicable material Legal Requirements and good industry practices.

accordance with the terms of the relevant contract and are not having deliveries curtailed substantially below the subject Property’s delivery capacity), 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 its 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 initial date thereof or the date of delivery of such Engineering Report, as applicable.

(a)    Title. Each Loan Party has good and defensible title to all of its Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the
most recently delivered Engineering Report (other than any thereof Disposed of in a Disposition permitted by this Agreement) free and clear of all Liens except for Permitted Liens and any title deficiencies which are being addressed pursuant to

shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (other than Letters of Credit as to which arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in respect thereof have been made), or any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder,
Holdings and each Loan Party agrees, unless the Majority Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing, to comply with the following covenants. 

Section 5.01    Compliance with Laws, Etc. Holdings and each Loan Party shall comply, and cause each of its

(b)    All certified copies of policies or certificates thereof, and endorsements and renewals thereof shall be delivered
to and retained by the Administrative Agent each time such a policy of insurance is made effective, renewed, amended, novated, or otherwise modified. All policies of insurance shall either have attached thereto a “lender’s loss payable
endorsement” for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, as loss payee in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or shall name the Administrative Agent as an additional insured, as applicable. All policies or certificates of

In the event that, notwithstanding the “lender’s loss payable endorsement” requirement of this Section 5.02, the proceeds of any insurance policy described above are paid
to any Loan Party or a Subsidiary when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall deliver such proceeds to the Administrative Agent immediately upon receipt. Waiver of subrogation shall apply in favor of the

 Section 7.04    Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time
and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document and owing to the Administrative Agent, such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of any Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Administrative Agent, such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Affiliate different from the
branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such obligations; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the
Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which
it exercised such right of setoff. Each of the Lender Parties agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 7.04 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that
the Administrative Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates may have.

remedy conferred to any Lender Party in this Agreement or the Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute, or otherwise shall be exclusive, and each such right, power, or remedy shall to the full extent permitted by
law be cumulative and in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. No course of dealing and no delay in exercising any right, power, or remedy conferred to any Lender Party in this Agreement and the Loan Documents or now or hereafter
existing at law, in equity, by statute, or otherwise shall operate as a waiver of or otherwise prejudice any such right, power, or remedy. Any Lender Party may cure any Event of Default without waiving the Event of Default. No notice to or demand
upon Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall entitle Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party to similar notices or demands in the future. 

Section 7.06    Application of Proceeds. 

(a)    Prior to an Event of Default, all payments made hereunder shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as directed
by the Borrower, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, including the application of prepayments according to Section 2.05 and Section 2.13. From and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any monies or Property actually
received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than as a result of the exercise of any rights or remedies under any Security Instrument or any other agreement with the Borrower, any Guarantor or any
of their respective Subsidiaries which secures any of the Secured Obligations), shall be applied as determined by the Administrative Agent, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, including the application of prepayments according to
Section 2.05 and Section 2.13. 
 (b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Obligations have
been accelerated pursuant to Section 7.02 or 7.03 or the Administrative Agent or any Lender has exercised any remedy set 

  
 -125- 

 
forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, all monies or Property actually received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of

 Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the Issuing Lender, to cash collateralize any Letters of Credit then outstanding; and

 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (a) payments and collections received by the Administrative Agent from any Loan Party that is not a Qualified ECP Guarantor (and any proceeds received in respect of such Loan Party’s Collateral) shall not be applied to Excluded
Swap Obligations with respect to any Loan Party, provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines is appropriate with respect to payments and collections received from the other Loan Parties (or proceeds
received in respect of such other Loan Parties’ Collateral) to preserve, as nearly as possible, the allocation to Secured Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section 7.06 (assuming that, solely for purposes of such adjustments,
Secured Obligations includes Excluded Swap Obligations), and (b) Banking Services Obligations and Lender Hedge Obligations may be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof,
together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Secured Party as the case may be. Each Secured Party not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding

 ARTICLE VIII 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE ISSUING LENDER 

Section 8.01    Appointment and Authority. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably
(a) appoints Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (b) authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are
delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Lender Parties, and neither
Holdings nor any Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions, other than the rights expressly provided to the Borrower under Section 8.06(a) and Section 8.11(b). It is
understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Document (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 Legal Requirement. 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. 

Section 8.02    Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the
same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or
unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities, act as the financial advisor
or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any other Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account
therefor to the Lenders. Wells Fargo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or
otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender. 

Section 8.03    Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this Section 8.03
shall include its Related Parties) shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless
of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action
or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders or Secured Parties as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or
the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirement, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay
under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; 

(c)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, nor
shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or
any of its Affiliates in any capacity; and

any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Base Rate”. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders or Secured Parties as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.03 and 7.01) or
(ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. 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 the Issuing Lender. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the
Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 9.03) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall reasonably be directed by the Majority Lenders; provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent
shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action) with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lender
Parties. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any recital, statement, warranty or
representation (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or
therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the value, validity, enforceability, effectiveness,
sufficiency or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the inspection of, or to inspect, the Property (including the books and records) of Holdings, any Loan Party or any
Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, or (vii) any
litigation or collection proceedings (or to initiate or conduct any such litigation or proceedings) under any Loan Document unless requested by the Majority Lenders in writing and its receives indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders.

 Section 8.04    Reliance by Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender. 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, writing or other communication (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 Credit Extension or any Conversion or continuance of an Advance that by its
terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to
the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Credit Extension or Conversion or continuance of an Advance. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by it, and the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

  
 -128- 

 Section 8.05    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 sub-agents appointed by it. The Administrative Agent and
any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any
such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents
except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of
such sub-agents. 
 Section 8.06    Resignation of Agent or Issuing
Lender. 
 (a)    The Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender may at any time give notice of its resignation to
the other Lender Parties and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, (i) the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent is not required if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint, as applicable, a successor Administrative Agent (which shall be a Lender or such other Person appointed by the Majority Lenders) or a successor
Issuing Lender (which shall be a Lender). If no such successor Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender
gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the applicable Majority Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, may on behalf
of the Lenders and Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing
Lender shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. 
 (b)    If the Person
serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Majority Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person

earlier day as shall be agreed by the applicable Majority Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 

(c)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring
or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as the Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that (v) in the case of

the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall instead be made by or to each applicable class of Lenders, until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or

provisions of this Article VIII and Sections 9.02(a) and (b), Section 8.09 and Section 2.14(d) shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender, as applicable, their respective sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, was acting
as Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable. 

Section 8.07    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other
Lenders. Each Lender Party acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender Party also acknowledges and agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party or
any of their Related Parties, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document
or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except for notices, reports, and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender by the Administrative Agent
hereunder and for other information in the Administrative Agent’s possession which has been requested by a Lender and for which such Lender pays the Administrative Agent’s expenses in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent shall

Section 8.10    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to Holdings or any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 Section 8.11    Collateral and Guaranty Matters. 

(a)    The Administrative Agent is authorized on behalf of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or
further consent from such Secured Parties, from time to time, to take any actions with respect to any Collateral or Security Instruments which may be necessary to perfect and maintain the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security
Instruments. The Administrative Agent is further authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Secured Parties, from time to time, to take any action in exigent
circumstances as may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents or applicable Legal Requirements. By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Instruments,
each Secured Party hereby agrees to the terms of this paragraph (a). 
 (b)    The Lenders hereby, and any other Secured
Party by accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Instruments, irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to (i) release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (a) upon
termination of this Agreement, termination of all Hedge Contracts with such Persons (other than Hedge Contracts as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable counterparty in its sole discretion have been made), termination of all Letters
of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to 

  
 -132- 

 
which arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its sole discretion have been made), and the payment in full of all outstanding Advances, Letter of Credit Obligations and all other
Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations for which no claims have been made); (b) constituting Property sold or to be sold or Disposed of as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document; (c) constituting Property in which no Loan Party owned an interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter other than as a result of a transaction prohibited hereunder; or (d) constituting
Property leased to any Loan Party under a lease which has expired or has been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by such Loan Party to be, renewed or extended;

release particular types or items of Collateral or Guarantors pursuant to this Section 8.11. At the written request and sole expense of the Borrower, which written request shall also include a certification from a Responsible Officer certifying
to the Administrative Agent that such release is permitted under this Section 8.11 and that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (which certification the Administrative Agent may, but is not
obligated to, rely on), the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide the releases of Collateral or Guarantors permitted to be released under this Section 8.11 subject to evidence of such transaction and release documentation reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent except that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated, to provide such releases for such Property to be sold but not yet sold or such Property subject to a lease that is about to expire but not
yet expired. Upon any of the Collateral constituting personal property being Disposed of as permitted under this Agreement, then such Collateral shall be automatically released from the Liens created under the applicable Security Instrument and the
Administrative Agent. 
 (c)    Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, the
Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and each Secured Party hereby agree that no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers,
rights and remedies hereunder, under the Guaranty and under the Security Instruments may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, as applicable, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan
Documents. By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Instruments, each Secured Party not party hereto hereby agrees to the terms of this paragraph (c).

 Section
8.14    Erroneous Payments.  
 (a)    Each Lender, each Issuing Lender, each other
Secured Party and any other party hereto hereby severally agrees that if (i) the Administrative Agent notifies (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error) such Lender or Issuing Lender or any other Secured Party (or the
Lender Affiliate of a Secured Party) or any other Person that has received funds from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, either for its own account or on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Lender or other Secured Party (each such recipient,
a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such
Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (ii) any Payment Recipient receives any payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different
date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied
by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was
transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 8.14(a), whether received
as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such
error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section shall require the Administrative Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above. Each Payment Recipient agrees
that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by
the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. 

(b)    Without limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Payment Recipient agrees that, in the case of clause
(a)(ii) above, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such occurrence. 
 (c)    In the case of
either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and upon
demand from the Administrative Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the
Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds and in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the
date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. 

(d)    In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any
reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a 

  
 -135- 

 
Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and upon the
Administrative Agent’s written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Advances (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous
Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Advances”) to the Administrative Agent or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s applicable lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the
Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Advances, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Administrative Agent or its applicable lending affiliate as the assignee of
such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. Without limitation of its rights hereunder, the Administrative Agent may cancel any Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment at any time by written notice to the applicable assigning Lender and upon such
revocation all of the Advances assigned pursuant to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be reassigned to such Lender without any requirement for payment or other consideration. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
(1) any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this clause
(d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 9.03, and (3) the Administrative Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action by any other Person. 

(e)    Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not
recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and
(2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source,
against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.14 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this
Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Secured Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect
to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making for a payment on the Secured Obligations and (z) to the extent that an
Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Secured Obligations, the Secured Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be,
shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received. 

(f)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the
Administrative Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

 (g)    Nothing in this Section 8.14 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment.

 Section 9.05    Survival of Representations and Obligations.

 (a)    All representations and warranties set forth in Article IV and all representations and warranties
contained in any certificate, or any of the Loan Documents (including, but not limited to, any such representation or warranty made in or in connection with any amendment thereto) shall constitute representations and warranties made under this
Agreement. All representations and warranties made under this Agreement shall be made or deemed to be made at and as of the Closing Date (except those that are expressly made as of a specific date), shall survive the Closing Date and shall not be
waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Lenders or any borrowing hereunder. 

(b)    Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the indemnities to which the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders are entitled under the provisions of Article VIII or Article IX and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders against events arising after such termination as well as before. Without limiting the foregoing, all obligations of Holdings and the Loan Parties provided for in Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.14(d), 9.01 and 9.02 and all of the obligations of
the Lenders in Section 8.09 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and repayment in full of the Obligations. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the rights and obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such
termination or in respect of any provision of this Agreement which survives such termination. 

Section 9.06    Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by
Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and when the Administrative Agent shall have, as to each Lender, either received a counterpart hereof executed by such Lender or been notified by such Lender that such Lender has executed it and
thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that neither Holdings nor the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall
have the right to assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any interest in this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of each Lender, except as otherwise permitted
by Section 6.04. Holdings and each Loan Party agrees that no Affiliate, equityholder or creditor of Holdings or such Loan Party is intended to be, and none of such Persons shall be, third party beneficiaries of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, and therefore no Indemnitee will have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort, or otherwise) to any Affiliate of Holdings or any Loan Party that is not a party hereto or to any equityholder or creditor of Holdings or
any Loan Party arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

Section 9.07    Successors and Assigns. 

(a)    Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither Holdings, nor the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph
(b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph
(e) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in 

  
 -141- 

 
this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the
extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement. 
 (b)    Assignment by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i)    Minimum Amounts. The aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances
outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless (A) such assignment is to a
Lender, and Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund or (B) each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). 
 (ii)    Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of
a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advance or the Commitment assigned. 

(iii)    Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by
paragraph (b)(i) of this Section and, in addition: 
 (A)    the consent of the Borrower (such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;
provided that (1) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof, and
(2) notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to the foregoing clause (1), unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower is required if such assignment is to a
Non-Commercial Bank regardless of whether such Non-Commercial Bank is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; 

(B)    the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
shall be required for assignments to a Person that is not a Lender and for assignments to any Lender that is a Non-Commercial Bank; and 

(C)    the consent of the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be
required for any such assignment to a Person that is not a Lender and for assignments to any Lender that is a Non-Commercial Bank. 

(iv)    Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $5,000; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any
assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

  
 -142- 

 (v)    Limitations on 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) 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 (B). 
 (vi)    No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment
shall be made to a natural Person (or any temporary investment vehicle or revocable trust owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person). 

(vii)    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 Advances 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, the Issuing Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued and unpaid thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share
of all Advances and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under
applicable Legal Requirement 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. 

(viii)    Elected Commitments. Each assignment by any Lender of all or a portion of its Commitments and the
Advances at the time owing to it hereunder shall include a proportionate assignment of such Lender’s Elected Commitments so that each such Lender’s percentage of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts represented by such Lender’s
Elected Commitment equals such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (expressed as a percentage) of the aggregate Commitments after giving effect to such assignment. 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) 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 Sections 2.12, 2.14, 9.01, 9.02 and 9.03 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 (d) of this Section. 

  
 -143- 

 (c)    Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this
purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.09 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments (including the Elected Commitments) of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
“Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
The Borrower hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent acting as its agent solely for the purpose set forth above in this clause (c), shall not subject the Administrative Agent to any fiduciary or other implied duties, all of which are hereby
waived by the Borrower. 
 (d)    Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice
to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, or the Issuing Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person (or any temporary investment vehicle or revocable trust owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person)
or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment
and/or the Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the
avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 9.02(a) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s). 

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d) of Section 9.03 (that adversely affects such Participant). The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11,
2.12 and 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(g) shall be delivered to the participating
Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.15
as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12 or 2.14, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have
been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the
Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.15 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled
to the benefits of Section 7.04 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13(e) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely
for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant
Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to 

  
 -144- 

 
a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary
to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant
Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. The Borrower hereby agrees that each Lender acting as its agent solely for
the purpose set forth above in this clause (d), shall not subject such Lender to any fiduciary or other implied duties, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower. 

(e)    Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(f)    Cashless Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may
exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Advances in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender. 
 Section 9.08    Confidentiality. Each Lender
Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure
is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any regulatory or similar authority purporting
to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) as to the extent required by Legal Requirements or regulations or in any legal,
judicial, administrative or other compulsory proceeding, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement, under any other Loan Document or under any agreement related to any Secured
Obligation, or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement related to any Secured Obligation, or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or prospective
party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to any Loan Party and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) to an investor or prospective
investor in an Approved Fund that also agrees that Information shall be used solely for the purpose of evaluating an investment in such Approved Fund, (iv) to a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, backup servicer, noteholder or secured party
in an Approved Fund in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for an Approved Fund, or (v) to a nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information regarding Holdings
and its Subsidiaries, the Advances and the Loan Documents in connection with ratings issued with respect to an Approved Fund, (g) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and
monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facility, (h) with the consent of the Borrower, (i) to Gold Sheets, Thomson Reuters, and other similar bank trade publications or bank market data collectors, such information to
consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications, (j) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a 

  
 -145- 

 
breach of this Section by the disclosing party or (ii) becomes available to any Secured Party or affiliate thereof from a third party that is not, to such Person’s actual knowledge,
subject to confidentiality obligations to Holdings or the Borrower, (k) to governmental regulatory authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of any Lender Party or, if such Lender Party deems necessary for the mitigation of
claims by those authorities against such Lender Party or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, in accordance with such Lender Party’s regulatory compliance policy, (l) to the extent that such information is independently developed by such
Lender Party, or (m) for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Loan Party
or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party or any
Subsidiary thereof; provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as
such Person would accord to its own confidential information. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, nothing in this Agreement shall (a) restrict any Lender Party from providing information to any bank or
other regulatory or governmental authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board and its supervisory staff; (b) require or permit any Lender Party to disclose to any Loan Party that any information will be or was provided to the
Federal Reserve Board or any of its supervisory staff; or (c) require or permit any Lender Party to inform any Loan Party of a current or upcoming Federal Reserve Board examination or any nonpublic Federal Reserve Board
supervisory initiative or action. 
 Section 9.09    Notices, Etc. 

(a)    All notices and other communications (other than Notices of Borrowing and Notices of Conversion or Continuation,
which are governed by Article II of this Agreement) shall be in writing and hand delivered with written receipt, telecopied, sent by facsimile, sent by electronic mail as permitted under paragraph (b) below (with, in the case of electronic
mail, a hard copy sent as otherwise permitted in this Section 9.09), sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier, or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested as follows: if to Holdings or a Loan Party, as specified on Schedule
II, if to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, at its credit contact specified under its name on Schedule II, and if to any Lender at its credit contact specified in its Administrative Questionnaire. Each party may change its
notice address by written notification to the other parties. All such notices and communications shall be effective when delivered, except that (i) notices and communications to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender
pursuant to Article II shall not be effective until received and, in the case of facsimile delivered under Article II, such receipt is confirmed by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, verbally or in writing
and (ii) notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b). 

(b)    Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereunder
may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing
shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic
communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of
such 

  
 -146- 

 
procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses
(i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice, email or other communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next
business day for the recipient. 
 (c)    Platform. 

(i)    Holdings and each Loan Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the
Communications (as defined below) available to the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

 (ii)    The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below)
do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no
event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Holdings, the Borrower or the other Loan Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of
any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, Holdings’, any Loan Party’s or the
Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of Holdings or any
Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through
the Platform. 
 Section 9.10    USURY NOT
INTENDED. IT IS THE INTENT OF EACH LOAN PARTY AND
EACH LENDER PARTY IN THE EXECUTION AND PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT
AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO CONTRACT IN STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH
APPLICABLE USURY LAWS, INCLUDING CONFLICTS OF LAW CONCEPTS, GOVERNING THE ADVANCES
OF EACH LENDER INCLUDING SUCH APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK, IF ANY, AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FROM
TIME TO TIME IN EFFECT, AND ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHOSE LAWS MAY
BE MANDATORILY APPLICABLE TO SUCH LENDER NOTWITHSTANDING THE OTHER PROVISIONS OF
THIS AGREEMENT. IN FURTHERANCE THEREOF, THE LENDER PARTIES AND THE LOAN
PARTIES STIPULATE AND AGREE THAT NONE OF THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS
CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL EVER BE
CONSTRUED TO CREATE A CONTRACT TO PAY, AS CONSIDERATION FOR THE USE,
FORBEARANCE OR DETENTION OF MONEY, INTEREST AT A RATE IN EXCESS OF
THE MAXIMUM RATE AND THAT FOR PURPOSES OF THIS AGREEMENT
“INTEREST” SHALL INCLUDE THE AGGREGATE OF ALL CHARGES
WHICH CONSTITUTE INTEREST UNDER SUCH LAWS THAT ARE CONTRACTED FOR, CHARGED
OR RECEIVED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT; AND IN THE EVENT THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING
THE FOREGOING, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES THE AGGREGATE AMOUNTS TAKEN, RESERVED,
CHARGED, RECEIVED OR PAID ON  

  
 -147- 

 
THE ADVANCES, INCLUDE AMOUNTS WHICH BY APPLICABLE LEGAL
REQUIREMENT ARE DEEMED INTEREST WHICH WOULD EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RATE, THEN
SUCH EXCESS SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A MISTAKE AND EACH LENDER
RECEIVING SAME SHALL CREDIT THE SAME ON THE PRINCIPAL OF ITS ADVANCES
(OR IF SUCH ADVANCES SHALL HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL, REFUND SAID
EXCESS TO THE BORROWER). IN THE EVENT THAT THE MATURITY OF THE
ADVANCES ARE ACCELERATED BY REASON OF ANY ELECTION OF THE HOLDER
THEREOF RESULTING FROM ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR
OTHERWISE, OR IN THE EVENT OF ANY REQUIRED OR PERMITTED PREPAYMENT,
THEN SUCH CONSIDERATION THAT CONSTITUTES INTEREST MAY NEVER INCLUDE MORE THAN
THE MAXIMUM RATE, AND EXCESS INTEREST, IF ANY, PROVIDED FOR IN THIS
AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE SHALL BE CANCELED AUTOMATICALLY AS OF THE DATE
OF SUCH ACCELERATION OR PREPAYMENT AND, IF THERETOFORE PAID, SHALL BE
CREDITED ON THE APPLICABLE ADVANCES (OR, IF THE APPLICABLE ADVANCES SHALL
HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL, REFUNDED TO THE BORROWER OF SUCH INTEREST).
IN DETERMINING WHETHER OR NOT THE INTEREST PAID OR PAYABLE UNDER ANY
SPECIFIC CONTINGENCIES EXCEEDS THE MAXIMUM RATE, THE LOAN PARTIES AND THE
LENDERS SHALL TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENT
AMORTIZE, PRORATE, ALLOCATE AND SPREAD IN EQUAL PARTS DURING THE PERIOD
OF THE FULL STATED TERM OF THE OBLIGATIONS ALL AMOUNTS CONSIDERED TO
BE INTEREST UNDER APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENT AT ANY TIME CONTRACTED FOR,
CHARGED, RECEIVED OR RESERVED IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBLIGATIONS. THE PROVISIONS
OF THIS SECTION SHALL CONTROL OVER ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WHICH MAY BE IN APPARENT
CONFLICT HEREWITH. 
 Section 9.11    Usury Recapture. In the event the
rate of interest chargeable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document at any time is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Advances shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or
accrued on the Advances equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Advances if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement or applicable Loan Document had at all times been in effect. In the event, upon
payment in full of the Advances, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Advances is less than the total amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of interest set forth in
this Agreement had, at all times, been in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an amount equal to the difference between (i) the
lesser of (A) the amount of interest which would have been charged on its Advances if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued on its Advances if the rates of interest set
forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid under this Agreement on its Advances. In the event the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum
Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Advances, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower.

 Section 9.12    Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is
made to any Lender Party, or any Lender Party exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including
pursuant to any settlement entered into by any Lender Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such
recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender Party severally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand

  
 -148- 

 
to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the
Lenders and the Issuing Lender under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 9.13    Performance of Duties. Each of Holdings’ and each Loan Party’s obligations under
this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be performed by such Person at its sole cost and expense. 

Section 9.14    All Powers Coupled with Interest. All powers of attorney and other authorizations granted to
the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and any Persons designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be
irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unsatisfied, any of the Commitments remain in effect or the credit facility evidenced hereby has not been terminated. 

Section 9.15    Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claim, controversy, dispute
or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York (including Section 5-1401 and
Section 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York), without reference to any other conflicts or choice of law principles thereof. Each Letter of Credit shall be governed by either
(i) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, or (ii) the International Standby Practices (ISP98), International Chamber of Commerce Publication
No. 590, in either case, including any subsequent revisions thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce and adhered to by the Issuing Lender. 

Section 9.16    Submission to Jurisdiction; Service of Process. Holdings, the Borrower
and each other Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Secured
Party or any Related Party of any Secured Party in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County,
and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees
that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Legal Requirement. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other
Loan Document shall affect any right that any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party or its Properties in the
courts of any jurisdiction. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.09. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in
any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirement. 
 Section 9.17    Waiver of Venue.
Holdings, the Borrower and each other Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, any 

  
 -149- 

 
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in
Section 9.16. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

Section 9.18    Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Execution. 

(a)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by
facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

(b)    Electronic Execution of Assignments. 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 Legal Requirement, 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 9.19    Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however,
that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.19 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.19, or otherwise under this
Agreement, voidable under applicable Legal Requirement relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and
effect until the termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other
arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender have been made). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.19 constitute, and this Section 9.19 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell,
support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 

Section 9.20    Independent Effect of Covenants. Holdings and the Borrower expressly acknowledge and agree
that each covenant contained in Articles V or VI hereof shall be given independent effect. Accordingly, neither Holdings nor the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in any transaction or
other act otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in Articles V or VI, before or after giving effect to such transaction or act, Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall or would be in breach of any other covenant contained in
Articles V or VI. 
 Section 9.21    USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and the
Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which
information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

 Section 9.22    Flood Insurance Regulations. Wells Fargo has
adopted internal policies and procedures that address requirements placed on federally regulated lenders under the Flood Insurance Regulations (defined below). If applicable, Wells Fargo, as administrative agent, will post on the applicable
electronic platform (or otherwise distribute to each Lender) documents that it receives in connection with the Flood Insurance Regulations; however, Wells Fargo reminds each Lender and Participant that, pursuant to the Flood Insurance Regulations,
each federally regulated lender (whether acting as a Lender or Participant) is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the Flood Insurance Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
in no event is any Building (as defined in the applicable Flood Insurance Regulation) or Manufactured (Mobile) Home (as defined in the applicable Flood Insurance Regulation) included in the definition of “Collateral” and no Building or
Manufactured (Mobile) Home is intended to be encumbered by any Mortgage. As used herein, “Flood Insurance Regulations” shall mean (a) the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 as now or hereafter in effect or any successor

 Section 9.31    [Reserved]. 

Section 9.32    Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide
support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Hedge Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge
and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the
regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC
may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): 

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

(b)    As used in this Section 9.32, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance
with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. 
 “Covered Entity” means any of the following: 

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); 

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or 

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). 

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§
252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. 
 “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial
contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). 

  
 -154- 

 Section 9.33    Joinder by Loan Parties. Each Loan Party
that becomes a “Guarantor” as required under Section 6.16 shall become a party hereto as a Loan Party with the same force and effect as if originally named herein as a party hereto without any further action or notice to the other
parties hereto.
