and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow the Loans.

and Borrowings.

 

(a)       Borrowings; Several

other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch

of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

    	-23-

    	 

    

 

(c)       Minimum Amounts;
Limitation on Number of Borrowings. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000. At the time that each ABR
Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000;
provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments
or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.08(e). Borrowings
of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total
of ten (10) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be
entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would
end after the Maturity Date.

 

(d)       Notes. Any
Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a single promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute
and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit A,
dated, in the case of (i) any Lender party hereto as of the Effective Date, as of the Effective Date, (ii) any Lender that becomes
a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, as of the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption, payable to

2.06, ‎Section 12.04(b) or otherwise), the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered on the effective date
of such increase or decrease, a new Note payable to the order of any Lender who requested a Note hereunder in a principal amount
equal to its Maximum Credit Amount after giving effect to such increase or decrease, and otherwise duly completed, and such Lender
agrees to promptly thereafter return the previously issued Note held by such Lender marked canceled or otherwise similarly defaced.
The date, amount, Type, interest rate and, if applicable, Interest Period of each Loan made by each Lender that receives a Note,
and all payments made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books for its Note, and, prior
to any transfer, may be endorsed by such Lender on a schedule attached to such Note or any continuation thereof or on any separate
record maintained by such Lender. Failure to make any such notation or to attach a schedule shall not affect any Lender’s
or the Borrower’s rights or obligations in respect of such Loans or affect the validity of such transfer by any Lender of
its Note.

 

Section 2.03    Requests
for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent

duration. Each Borrowing Request shall constitute a representation that the amount of the requested Borrowing shall not cause the
total Credit Exposures to exceed the total Commitments (i.e., the lesser of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts and the then effective
Borrowing Base). Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this ‎Section 2.03, the Administrative

Borrowing.

 

Section 2.04    Interest

(a)       Conversion and
Continuance. Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of

Interest Election Request shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent.

 

    	-25-

    	 

    

 

(c)       Information in
Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in
compliance with ‎Section 2.02:

 

   (i)      the Borrowing
to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions
thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant
to Section 2.04(c)(iii) and (iv) shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

 

   (ii)      the effective

   (iv)      if the
resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election,
which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest
Period of one month’s duration.

 

(d)       Notice to Lenders
by the Administrative Agent. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise
each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

 

(e)       Effect of Failure
to Deliver Timely Interest Election Request and Events of Default on Interest Election. If the Borrower fails to deliver a
timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto,
then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted
to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i)
no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing (and any Interest Election Request that requests
the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective) and (ii)
unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

 

Section 2.05    Funding
of Borrowings.

 

(a)       Funding by Lenders.
Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available

York and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement
of an LC Disbursement as provided in ‎Section 2.08(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing
Bank that made such LC Disbursement.

 

    	-26-

    	 

    

 

(b)       Presumption of
Funding by the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time such Lender
is required to fund its share of a Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s
share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance
with paragraph (a) above and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such
event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable
Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment
to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined
by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower,
the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

and Reduction of Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts.

may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts; provided that (1) each reduction
of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000
and (2) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts if, after giving effect to any concurrent
prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.04(c)‎, the total Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.

 

   (ii)      The Borrower
shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts under ‎Section
2.06(b)(i) at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election
and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of
the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this ‎Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be irrevocable.
Any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be permanent and may not be reinstated. Each reduction
of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable
Percentage.

Section 2.07    Borrowing
Base.

 

(a)       Borrowing Base.
For the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the first Redetermination Date, the Borrowing Base shall
be equal to $265,000,000. Upon the issuance of any Senior Notes after the Effective Date, the Borrowing Base shall be automatically
reduced by $0.25 for each $1.00 of the aggregate principal amount of such Senior Notes. In addition, the Borrowing Base may be
subject to further adjustments from time to time pursuant to ‎Section 8.13(c) or ‎Section 9.11.

 

(b)       Scheduled and
Interim Redeterminations.

 

   (i)      The Borrowing
Base shall be redetermined semi-annually on or around November 1st and May 1st in accordance with this Section 2.07
(a “Scheduled Redetermination”) with the first Scheduled Redetermination to take place May 1, 2014, and, subject
to Section 2.07(d), such redetermined Borrowing Base shall become effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders on or around November 1st and May 1st of each year.

 

   (ii)      The Administrative
Agent may or shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders, by notifying the Borrower thereof, one time during any six-month
period, elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined between Scheduled Redeterminations in accordance with this ‎Section
2.07.

 

   (iii)      The Borrower
may elect to redetermine the Borrowing Base, by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof, one time during any six-month period,
that it elects to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined between Scheduled Redeterminations in accordance with this Section
2.07.

 

(c)       Scheduled and
Interim Redetermination Procedure.

 

   (i)      Each Scheduled
Redetermination and each Interim Redetermination shall be effectuated as follows: upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of (1)
the Reserve Report and the certificate required to be delivered by the Borrower, in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination, pursuant
to Section 8.12(a) and ‎(c), and, in the case of an Interim Redetermination, pursuant to Section 8.12(b)
and ‎(c), and (2) such other reports, data and supplemental information, including, without limitation, the information
provided pursuant to ‎Section 8.12(c), as may, from time to time, be reasonably requested by the Required Lenders (the
Reserve Report, such certificate and such other reports, data and supplemental information being the “Engineering Reports”),
the Administrative Agent shall evaluate the information contained in the Engineering Reports and shall, in good faith, propose
a new Borrowing Base (such amount being the “Proposed Borrowing Base”) based upon such information and such
other information (including, without limitation, the status of title information with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties as
described in the Engineering Reports and the existence of any other Debt) as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its
sole discretion and consistent with its normal oil and gas lending criteria as it exists at the particular time. In no event shall
the Proposed Borrowing Base exceed the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts.

 

    	-28-

    	 

    

 

   (ii)      The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the Proposed Borrowing Base (the “Proposed Borrowing Base Notice”):

 

   (1)      in the case
of a Scheduled Redetermination (A) if the Administrative Agent shall have received the Engineering Reports and other information
required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to ‎Section 8.12(a) and ‎(c) in a timely and complete manner,
then on or before October 15th and April 15th of such year following the date of delivery or (B) if the Administrative
Agent shall not have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to ‎Section 8.12(a)
and ‎‎(c) in a timely and complete manner, then promptly after the Administrative Agent has received complete Engineering
Reports and other information from the Borrower and has had a reasonable opportunity to determine the Proposed Borrowing Base in
accordance with Section 2.07(c)(i), and in any event, within fifteen (15) days after the Administrative Agent has received
the required Engineering Reports; and

 

   (2)      in the case
of an Interim Redetermination, promptly, and in any event, within fifteen (15) days after the Administrative Agent has received
the required Engineering Reports.

 

   (iii)      Any Proposed
Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved or deemed to have been approved by all of
the Lenders as provided in this ‎Section 2.07(c)(iii) and any Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain
the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved or be deemed to have been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in this
‎Section 2.07(c)(iii). Upon receipt of the Proposed Borrowing Base Notice, each Lender shall have fifteen (15) days
to agree with the Proposed Borrowing Base or disagree with the Proposed Borrowing Base by proposing an alternate Borrowing Base.
If, at the end of such fifteen (15) days, any Lender has not communicated its approval or disapproval in writing to the Administrative
Agent, such silence shall be deemed to be an approval of the Proposed Borrowing Base. If, at the end of such 15-day period, all
of the Lenders, in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, or the Required
Lenders, in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect, have approved
or been deemed to have approved, as aforesaid, then the Proposed Borrowing Base shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective
on the date specified in ‎Section 2.07(d). If, however, at the end of such 15-day period, all of the Lenders or the
Required Lenders, as applicable, have not approved or been deemed to have approved, as aforesaid, then the Administrative Agent
shall (i) notify the Borrower of the Proposed Borrowing Base and which Lenders have not approved or been deemed to have approved
the Proposed Borrowing Base and (ii) poll the Lenders to ascertain the highest Borrowing Base then acceptable to a number of Lenders
sufficient to constitute the Required Lenders for purposes of this ‎Section 2.07 and, so long as such amount does not
increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in
‎Section 2.07(d).

 

    	-29-

    	 

    

 

(d)       Effectiveness
of a Redetermined Borrowing Base. After a redetermined Borrowing Base is approved or is deemed to have been approved by all
of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(iii), the Administrative Agent shall
notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the amount of the redetermined Borrowing Base (the “New Borrowing Base Notice”),
and such amount (or amounts, as applicable) shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective and applicable to the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders:

 

   (i)      in
the case of a Scheduled Redetermination, (1) if the Administrative Agent shall have received the Engineering Reports required to
be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to ‎‎Section 8.12(a) and ‎‎(c) in a timely and complete
manner, then on the November 1st or May 1st, as applicable, following such New Borrowing Base Notice, or
(2) if the Administrative Agent shall not have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant
to ‎Section 8.12(a) and ‎‎(c) in a timely and complete manner, then on the Business Day next succeeding
delivery of such New Borrowing Base Notice; and

 

   (ii)      in
the case of an Interim Redetermination, on the Business Day next succeeding delivery of such New Borrowing Base Notice.

 

Such amount shall then become the Borrowing
Base until the next Scheduled Redetermination Date, the next Interim Redetermination Date or the next adjustment to the Borrowing
Base under ‎Section 8.13(c) or Section 9.11, whichever occurs first. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Scheduled
Redetermination or Interim Redetermination shall become effective until the New Borrowing Base Notice related thereto is received
by the Borrower.

 

(e)       Reductions
of Borrowing Base Related to Swap Agreements. If any Swap Agreement to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party is Liquidated
and which was used by the Lenders to establish the Borrowing Base, and the total termination value payable by the Borrower in respect
of all such Liquidated Swap Agreements in any period between any two Scheduled Redetermination Dates exceeds five percent (5%)
of the then effective Borrowing Base, then, contemporaneously therewith, the Borrowing Base then in effect shall be reduced by
an amount equal to the value, if any, assigned to the Liquidated portion of all such Swap Agreements so terminated during such
period, as determined by the Required Lenders.

 

Section
2.08    Letters of Credit.

 

(a)       General.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit in dollars
for its own account or for the account of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency
between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall control.

 

    	-30-

    	 

    

 

(b)       Notice
of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment,
renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic
communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative
Agent (not less than three (3) Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice:
(i) requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit or identifying the outstanding Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank
to be amended, renewed or extended; (ii) specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business
Day); (iii) specifying the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.08(c)); (iv) specifying
the amount of such Letter of Credit; (v) specifying the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information
as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit; and (vi) specifying the amount of the then effective
Borrowing Base (without regard to the requested Letter of Credit or the requested amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding
Letter of Credit) and the pro forma total Credit Exposures (giving effect to the requested Letter of Credit or the requested
amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit). If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall submit
a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit.
A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and with respect to each notice provided by the Borrower
above and any issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and
warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (1) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC
Commitment and (2) the total Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Commitments (i.e. the lesser of the Aggregate Maximum
Credit Amounts and the then effective Borrowing Base).

 

(c)       Expiration
Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after
the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal
or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided, however, that any
Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event
extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above).

 

(d)       Participations.
By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to an existing Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without
any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank that issues such Letter of Credit or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank that issues
a Letter of Credit hereunder hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation
in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under
such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank that issues a Letter of Credit hereunder, such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided
in ‎Section 2.08(e), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.08(d)‎ in respect of
Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the
Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

 

    	-31-

    	 

    

 

(e)       Reimbursement.
If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall
reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00
noon, New York, New York time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such
LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York, New York time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower
prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York, New York time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower
receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York, New York time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the
Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such
time on the day of receipt; provided that if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, the Borrower shall, subject
to the conditions to Borrowing set forth herein, be deemed to have requested, and the Borrower does hereby request under such circumstances,
that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s
obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make
such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due
from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such
notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower,
in the same manner as provided in ‎Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall
apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to
the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by
the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this ‎Section 2.08(e), the Administrative Agent
shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments
pursuant to this ‎Section 2.08(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their
interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this ‎Section 2.08(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank for
any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve
the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

 

    	-32-

    	 

    

 

(f)       Obligations
Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in ‎Section 2.08(e) shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any
and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter
of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter
of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any
respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank against presentation of a draft
or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit Agreement, or (iv) any other
event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this ‎Section 2.08(f),
constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.
Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or
responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to
make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission,
interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter
of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any
consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse
the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims
in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that
are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under
a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank
shall be deemed to have exercised all requisite care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting
the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial
compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit may, in its sole reasonable
discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of
any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in
strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

 

(g)       Disbursement
Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a
demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or
will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve
the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

 

(h)       Interim
Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, until the Borrower shall have reimbursed the Issuing Bank
for such LC Disbursement (either with its own funds or a Borrowing under Section 2.08(e)), the unpaid amount thereof shall
bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower
reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section
2.08(h)‎ shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by
any Lender pursuant to ‎Section 2.08(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the
extent of such payment.

 

    	-33-

    	 

    

 

(i)       Replacement
of an Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced or resign at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, such resigning or replaced Issuing Bank and, in the case of a replacement, the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such resignation or replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation or
replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the resigning or replaced
Issuing Bank pursuant to ‎Section 3.05(b). In the case of the replacement of an Issuing Bank, from and after the effective
date of such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank
under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing
Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous
Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the resigning or
replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank
under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be
required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

 

(j)       Cash Collateralization.
If (i) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the
Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this ‎Section 2.08(j), or (ii) the Borrower is
required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to an LC Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant
to Section 3.04(c)‎, then the Borrower shall deposit, in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to, in the case of an Event of Default, the LC
Exposure, and in the case of a payment required by ‎Section 3.04(c)‎, the amount of such excess as provided in ‎Section 3.04(c)‎,
as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall
become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any
kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary described in ‎Section 10.01(h)
or ‎Section 10.01(i). The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank and
the Lenders, an exclusive first priority and continuing perfected security interest in and Lien on such account and all cash, checks,
drafts, certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time deposited or held in such account, all deposits or wire transfers
made thereto, any and all investments purchased with funds deposited in such account, all interest, dividends, cash, instruments,
financial assets and other Property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise payable in respect of, or in exchange for,
any or all of the foregoing, and all proceeds, products, accessions, rents, profits, income and benefits therefrom, and any substitutions
and replacements therefor. The Borrower’s obligation to deposit amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08(j)‎ shall
be absolute and unconditional, without regard to whether any beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit has attempted to draw down
all or a portion of such amount under the terms of a Letter of Credit, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
shall not be subject to any defense or be affected by a right of set-off, counterclaim or recoupment which the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries may now or hereafter have against any such beneficiary, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders
or any other Person for any reason whatsoever. Such deposit shall be held as collateral securing the payment and performance of
the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in a “securities account” (within
the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC) over which the Administrative Agent shall have “control” (within the meaning
of the UCC). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may direct the Administrative Agent and the “securities intermediary”
(within the meaning of the UCC) to invest amounts credited to the securities account, at the Borrower’s risk and expense,
in Investments described in Section 9.05(c)‎ through (f)‎. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments
shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse, on a pro
rata basis, the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall
be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity
of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event
of Default, and the Borrower is not otherwise required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to an LC Exposure
in connection with any prepayment pursuant to ‎Section 3.04(c), then such amount (to the extent not applied as
aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

ARTICLE III

 

Payments of Principal
and Interest; Prepayments; Fees

 

Section
3.01    Repayment of Loans. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Termination Date.

 

Section
3.02    Interest.

 

(a)       ABR Loans.
The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, but in no event
to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.

 

(b)       Eurodollar
Loans. The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period
in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.

 

(c)       Post-Default
Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the
Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise,
such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) plus the
rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in ‎Section 3.02(a), but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.

 

(d)       Interest
Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and on
the Termination Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to ‎Section 3.02(c) shall be payable on
demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than an optional prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to
the Termination Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment
or prepayment, and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period
therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

 

    	-35-

    	 

    

 

(e)       Interest
Rate Computations. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, unless such computation would
exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap
year), except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on
the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate,
Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error, and be binding upon the parties hereto.

 

Section
3.03    Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest
Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

 

(a)      the Administrative
Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist
for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or

 

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

 

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

 

Section
3.04    Prepayments.

 

(a)       Optional
Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part,

Type as provided in ‎Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included
in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by ‎Section 3.02.

Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue
at the applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the unused Commitment of such Lender during the period from
and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on
the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Termination Date, commencing on the first such date
to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, unless such computation
would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case such fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days
in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

 

(b)       Letter
of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee
with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the
interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion
thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding
the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC
Exposure, (ii) to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee, of 0.375% face amount of each Letter of Credit upon its

June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the Effective Date and fronting fees with respect to any Letter of Credit shall be payable at the
time of issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the Termination Date and any
such fees accruing after the Termination Date shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to

Payments; Pro Rata Treatment;
Sharing of Set-offs.

 

Section
4.01    Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

 

(a)       Payments
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest,
fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under ‎Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section
5.03 or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York, New York time, on the date when due, in dollars that constitute immediately
available funds, without defense, deduction, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Fees, once paid, shall not be refundable under
any circumstances absent manifest error (e.g., as a result of a clerical mistake). Any amounts received after such time on any
date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for
purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices located at
3 Times Square, 27th Floor, New York, New York 10036, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank as expressly
provided herein and except that payments pursuant to ‎Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and
‎Section 12.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any
such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.
If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.
All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

 

(b)       Application
of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay
fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied
(i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with
the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements
then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC
Disbursements then due to such parties.

 

    	-39-

    	 

    

 

(c)       Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving
payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest
thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for
cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary
so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal
of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall
be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this
‎Section 4.01(c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with
the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation
in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary
or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 4.01(c)‎ shall apply). The Borrower consents to
the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 

Section
4.02    Presumption of Payment by the Borrower. 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 Bank 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 Bank, 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 Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the
date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal
Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

 

Section
4.03    Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail
to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(a), 2.08(d) or (e), 4.02
or 12.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i)
apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations
are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future
funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections; in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by
the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

Section
4.04    Disposition of Proceeds. The Security Instruments contain an assignment
by the Borrower to and in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Persons named therein
of all of the Borrower’s interest in and to production and all proceeds attributable thereto that may be produced from or
allocated to the Mortgaged Property. The Security Instruments further provide in general for the application of such proceeds to
the satisfaction of the Obligations and other obligations described therein and secured thereby. Notwithstanding the assignment
contained in such Security Instruments, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, (a) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
agree that they will neither notify the purchaser or purchasers of such production nor take any other action to cause such proceeds
to be remitted to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, but the Lenders will instead permit such proceeds to be paid to the
Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and (b) the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to take such actions as
may be necessary to cause such proceeds to be paid to the Borrower and/or such Restricted Subsidiaries.

Increased Costs; Break
Funding Payments; Taxes; Illegality; Defaulting Lenders

 

Section
5.01    Increased Costs.

 

(a)       Eurodollar
Changes in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

 

   (i)      impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or

 

   (ii)      impose
on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender;

 

and the result of any of the foregoing
shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to
make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or
otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

 

(b)       Capital
Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements
has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the
capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans
made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a
level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could
have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and
the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time
to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction
suffered.

 

    	-41-

    	 

    

 

(c)       Certificates.
A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing
Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in ‎Section 5.01(a) or (b) and reasonably detailed
calculations therefor shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay
such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt
thereof.

 

(d)       Effect
of Failure or Delay in Requesting Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this ‎Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right
to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank
pursuant to this ‎‎Section 5.01 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 90 days prior to the date
that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided
further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 

Section
5.02    Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal
of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of
Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered
pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto
as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to ‎Section 5.04(b), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall
compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss,
cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the
amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO
Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current
Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the
Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at
the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable
amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that
such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this ‎‎Section 5.02 and reasonably detailed calculations therefor
shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount
shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section
5.03    Taxes.

 

(a)       Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made
free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be
required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary
so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
5.03(a)‎), the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall
pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

(b)       Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law.

 

(c)       Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 days after
written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender
or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this ‎Section
5.03) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate of the
Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank as to the amount of such payment or liability under this ‎Section 5.03
shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(d)       Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental
Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such
Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 

(e)       Foreign
Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction
in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed
by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the
Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

 

(f)       Tax Refunds.
If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or
Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts
pursuant to this ‎Section 5.03, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments
made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this ‎Section 5.03 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes
giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower,
upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties,
interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event
the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This ‎Section 5.03
shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

 

    	-43-

    	 

    

 

(g)       FATCA.
If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such
Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b)
or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times
prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation
prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations
under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date.

 

Section
5.04    Mitigation Obligations.

 

(a)       Designation
of Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under ‎Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section
5.03, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans
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 5.01
or Section 5.03, 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
of Lenders. If (i) any Lender requests compensation under ‎Section 5.01, (ii) the Borrower is required
to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to ‎Section
5.03, (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (iv) any Lender has not approved (or is not deemed to have approved)
an increase in the Borrowing Base proposed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to ‎Section 2.07(c)(iii), then
the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (A) require such Lender
to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in ‎Section 12.04(b)),
all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee
may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) or (B) require such Lender to be removed as a Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents with a corresponding reduction in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amount equal to the Maximum
Credit Amount of such Lender; provided that, (1) in the case of a required assignment of interest, the Borrower shall have
received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (2) such Lender
shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements,
accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such
outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (3) in the case of
any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.01 or payments required to be made pursuant
to ‎Section 5.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be
required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

 

    	-44-

    	 

    

 

Section
5.05    Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the
event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its applicable lending office to honor its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar
Loans either generally or having a particular Interest Period hereunder, then (a) such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent thereof and such Lender’s obligation to make such Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended (the “Affected
Loans”) until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain such Eurodollar Loans and (b) all Affected Loans which
would otherwise be made by such Lender shall be made instead as ABR Loans (and, if such Lender so requests by notice to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent, all Affected Loans of such Lender then outstanding shall be automatically converted into ABR Loans
on the date specified by such Lender in such notice) and, to the extent that Affected Loans are so made as (or converted into)
ABR Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be applied instead
to its ABR Loans.

 

Section
5.06    Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting
Lender:

 

(a)      fees shall
cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.05;

 

(b)      the Maximum
Credit Amount and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required
Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 12.02),
provided that (x) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender
which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders and (y) any amendment referenced in clauses (i),
(iii) and (iv) of Section 12.02(b) which affects such Defaulting Lender shall, in each case, require the consent of such
Defaulting Lender;

 

(c)      if any LC
Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

 

  (i)      all
or any part of such LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Credit Exposures does not exceed the total
of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Maximum Credit Amounts and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 are satisfied
at such time; and

 

    	-45-

    	 

    

 

  (ii)      if
the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business
Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect
to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.08(j)
for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

 

  (iii)      if
the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower
shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.05(b) with respect to such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

 

  (iv)      if
the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders
pursuant to Section 3.05 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages;
or

 

  (v)      if
any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 5.06(c),
then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise
would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment
that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.05(b) with respect to such
Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or
reallocated; and

 

(d)      so long as
any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless
it is satisfied that the related LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash
collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 5.06(c), and participating interests in any such
newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 5.06(c)(i)
(and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

 

(e)      In the event
that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all
matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the
inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders
as the Administrative shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable
Percentage.

The Borrower represents
and warrants to the Lenders that:

 

Section
7.01    Organization; Powers. Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power
and authority, and has all material governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary, to own its assets
and to carry on its business as now conducted, and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction
where such qualification is required, except where failure to have such power, authority, licenses, authorizations, consents, approvals
and qualifications could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Effective Date, Schedule 7.01
is an accurate corporate organizational chart of Borrower and its Subsidiaries showing the ownership of all Equity Interests in
such Persons.

 

Section
7.02    Authority; Enforceability. The Transactions to be entered into by each
Loan Party are within such Loan Party’s corporate, limited liability company or limited partnership powers and have been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or partnership and, if required, stockholder action (including,
without limitation, any action required to be taken by any class of directors of such Loan Party or any other Person, whether interested
or disinterested, in order to ensure the due authorization of the Transactions). Each Loan Document to which any Loan Party is
a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan
Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law.

 

Section
7.03    Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent
or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any other third Person (including
shareholders or any class of directors, whether interested or disinterested, of any Loan Party or any other Person), nor is any
such consent, approval, registration, filing or other action necessary for the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document
or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and
effect other than (i) the recording and filing of the Security Instruments as required by this Agreement and (ii) those third party
approvals or consents which, if not made or obtained, would not cause a Default hereunder, could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect or do not have an adverse effect on the enforceability of the Loan Documents, (b) will not violate
any applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or
any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument
binding upon the Borrower or any Subsidiary or its Properties, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be
made by the Borrower or such Subsidiary and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Property of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than the Liens created by the Loan Documents).

Section
7.04    Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change.

 

(a)      The Borrower
has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its audited consolidated balance sheet and statement of income, stockholders equity and
cash flows as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, all reported on by a firm of independent public accountants acceptable
to the Administrative Agent. Such audited financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
and results of operations and cash flows of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods
in accordance with GAAP.

 

(b)      Since December 31,
2012, (i) there has been no event, development or circumstance that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect and (ii) the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has been conducted only in the ordinary course
consistent with past business practices.

 

(c)      Except as
set forth on Schedule 9.02 or in a certificate delivered pursuant to ‎Section 8.01(c), neither the Borrower
nor any Restricted Subsidiary has on the Effective Date any material Debt (including Disqualified Capital Stock) or any material
contingent liabilities, off-balance sheet liabilities or partnerships, material liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term
commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments.

 

Section
7.05    Litigation.

 

(a)      As of the
Effective Date, except as set forth on Schedule 7.05, there are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings by or before
any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing against or
affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination that, if
adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or
(ii) that involve any Loan Document or the Transactions.

 

(b)      Since the
Effective Date, there has been no change in the status of the matters disclosed in Schedule 7.05 that, individually or in
the aggregate, has resulted in, or materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section
7.06    Environmental Matters. Except as could not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect (or with respect to (c), (d) and (e) below, where the failure to take such actions could not be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), to the knowledge of Borrower:

 

(a)      neither any
Property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary nor the operations conducted thereon violate any order or requirement of any court or
Governmental Authority or any Environmental Laws;

 

    	-51-

    	 

    

 

(b)      no Property
of the Borrower or any Subsidiary nor the operations currently conducted thereon or by any prior owner or operator of such Property
or operation, are in violation of or subject to any existing, pending or threatened action, suit, investigation, inquiry or proceeding
by or before any court or Governmental Authority or to any remedial obligations under Environmental Laws;

 

(c)      all notices,
permits, licenses, exemptions, approvals or similar authorizations, if any, required to be obtained or filed in connection with
the operation or use of any and all Property of the Borrower and each Subsidiary, including, without limitation, past or present
treatment, storage, disposal or release of a hazardous substance, oil and gas waste or solid waste into the environment, have been
duly obtained or filed, and the Borrower and each Subsidiary are in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such notices,
permits, licenses and similar authorizations;

 

(d)      all hazardous
substances, solid waste and oil and gas waste, if any, generated at any and all Property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary have
in the past been transported, treated and disposed of in accordance with Environmental Laws and so as not to pose an imminent and
substantial endangerment to public health or welfare or the environment, and all such transport carriers and treatment and disposal
facilities have been and are operating in compliance with Environmental Laws and so as not to pose an imminent and substantial
endangerment to public health or welfare or the environment, and are not the subject of any existing, pending or threatened action,
investigation or inquiry by any Governmental Authority in connection with any Environmental Laws;

 

(e)      the Borrower
has taken all steps reasonably necessary to determine and has determined that no oil, hazardous substances, solid waste or oil
and gas waste, have been disposed of or otherwise released and there has been no threatened release of any oil, hazardous substances,
solid waste or oil and gas waste on or to any Property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary except in compliance with Environmental
Laws and so as not to pose an imminent and substantial endangerment to public health or welfare or the environment;

 

(f)      to the extent
applicable, all Property of the Borrower and each Subsidiary currently satisfies all design, operation, and equipment requirements
imposed by the OPA, and the Borrower does not have any reason to believe that such Property, to the extent subject to the OPA,
will not be able to maintain compliance with the OPA requirements during the term of this Agreement; and

 

(g)      neither the
Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any known contingent liability or Remedial Work in connection with any release or threatened release
of any oil, hazardous substance, solid waste or oil and gas waste into the environment.

 

Section
7.07    Compliance with the Laws and Agreements; No Defaults. Except as could not
be reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

 

(a)      each of the
Borrower and each Subsidiary is in compliance with all Governmental Requirements applicable to it or its Property and all agreements
and other instruments binding upon it or its Property, and possesses all licenses, permits, franchises, exemptions, approvals and
other governmental authorizations necessary for the ownership of its Property and the conduct of its business, except where the
failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

 

    	-52-

    	 

    

 

(b)      neither the
Borrower nor any Subsidiary is in default nor has any event or circumstance occurred which, but for the expiration of any applicable
grace period or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default or would require the Borrower or a Subsidiary to Redeem
or make any offer to Redeem under any indenture, note, credit agreement or instrument pursuant to which any Material Indebtedness
is outstanding or by which the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their Properties is bound; and

 

(c)      no Default
has occurred and is continuing.

 

Section
7.08    Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment
company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of, or subject
to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

 

Section
7.09    Taxes. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused
to be filed all Tax returns and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have
been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the Borrower
or such Subsidiary, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that
the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves
on the books of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in respect of Taxes and other governmental charges are, in the reasonable opinion
of the Borrower, adequate. No Tax Lien relating to Taxes described in the first sentence of this Section 7.09 has been filed
and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being asserted with respect to any such Tax or other such governmental charge.

 

Section
7.10    ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that,
when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the
assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent
financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $250,000 the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and
the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting
such amounts, exceed by more than $250,000 the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans.

 

    	-53-

    	 

    

 

Section
7.11    Disclosure; No Material Misstatements. The Borrower has disclosed to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which it or any of its
Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of Borrower, taken as a whole, none of the other reports, financial statements,
certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender or any of their Affiliates in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or delivered
hereunder or under any other Loan Document (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material
misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, prospect information,
geological and geophysical data and engineering projections, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in
good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. To the knowledge of Borrower there is no fact peculiar
to the Borrower or any Subsidiary which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or in the future is reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and which has not been set forth in this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the other
documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by or on behalf of the Borrower or
any Subsidiary prior to, or on, the Effective Date in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. There are no statements
or conclusions known to the Borrower in any Reserve Report which are based upon or include misleading information or fail to take
into account material information regarding the matters reported therein, it being understood that projections concerning volumes
attributable to the Oil and Gas Properties and production and cost estimates contained in each Reserve Report are necessarily based
upon professional opinions, estimates and projections and that the Borrower and the Subsidiaries do not warrant that such opinions,
estimates and projections will ultimately prove to have been accurate.

 

Section
7.12    Insurance. The Borrower has, and has caused all its Restricted Subsidiaries
to have, (a) all insurance policies sufficient for the compliance by each of them with all material Governmental Requirements and
all material agreements and (b) insurance coverage in at least amounts and against such risk (including, without limitation, public
liability) that are usually insured against by companies similarly situated and engaged in the same or a similar business for the
assets and operations of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders have been named
as additional insureds in respect of such liability insurance policies and the Administrative Agent has been named as loss payee
with respect to Property loss insurance.

 

Section
7.13    [RESERVED]. 

 

Section
7.14    Subsidiaries. Schedule 7.14 sets forth the name of, and the ownership
interest of the Borrower in, each Subsidiary of the Borrower (as such Schedule may be updated from time to time, including pursuant
to a notice delivered in accordance with Section 8.01(l)). As of the Effective Date there are no Unrestricted Subsidiaries
other than the Subsidiaries set forth on Schedule 1.01.

 

Section
7.15    Location of Business and Offices. The Borrower’s jurisdiction of
organization is Delaware; the name of the Borrower as listed in the public records of Delaware is Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation;
and the organizational identification number of the Borrower in Delaware is 2758331 (or, in each case, as set forth in a notice
delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to ‎Section 8.01(l) in accordance with ‎Section 12.01). Each
Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of organization, name as listed in the public records of its jurisdiction of organization and organizational
identification number in its jurisdiction of organization is stated on Schedule 7.14 (as such Schedule may be updated from
time to time, including pursuant to a notice delivered in accordance with Section 8.01(l)).

Section
7.16    Properties; Titles, Etc.

 

(a)      Except as
disclosed in Schedule 7.16, each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries has good and defensible title to the proved
Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (excluding, to the extent this representation and
warranty is deemed to be made after the Effective Date, any such Oil and Gas Properties sold or transferred in compliance with
‎Section 9.11) and good title to all its personal Properties, in each case, free and clear of all Liens except Liens
permitted by Section 9.03. After giving full effect to the Excepted Liens, the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiary specified
as the owner owns the net interests in production attributable to the Hydrocarbon Interests as reflected in the most recently delivered
Reserve Report, and the ownership of such Properties shall not in any material respect obligate the Borrower or such Restricted
Subsidiary to bear the costs and expenses relating to the maintenance, development and operations of each such Property in an amount
in excess of the working interest of each Property set forth in the most recently delivered Reserve Report that is not offset by
a corresponding proportionate increase in the Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s net revenue interest in such
Property.

 

(b)      All material
leases and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries are valid and subsisting,
in full force and effect, and there exists no default or event or circumstance which with the giving of notice or the passage of
time or both would give rise to a default under any such lease or leases, which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

(c)      The rights
and Properties presently owned, leased or licensed by the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries including, without limitation,
all easements and rights of way, include all rights and Properties necessary to permit the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries
to conduct their business in all material respects in the same manner as its business has been conducted prior to the Effective
Date.

 

(d)      All of the
material Properties of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries which are reasonably necessary for the operation of their businesses
are in good working condition and are maintained in accordance with prudent business standards.

 

(e)      The Borrower
and each Subsidiary owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual Property
material to its business, and the use thereof by the Borrower and such Subsidiary does not infringe upon the rights of any other
Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in
a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries either own or have valid licenses or other rights to use all databases,
geological data, geophysical data, engineering data, seismic data, maps, interpretations and other technical information used in
their businesses as presently conducted, subject to the limitations contained in the agreements governing the use of the same,
which limitations are customary for companies engaged in the business of the exploration and production of Hydrocarbons, with such
exceptions as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    	-55-

    	 

    

 

Section
7.17    Maintenance of Properties. Except for such acts or failures to act as could
not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Oil and Gas Properties (and Properties unitized therewith) have
been maintained, operated and developed in a good and workmanlike manner and in conformity with all Government Requirements and
in conformity with the provisions of all leases, subleases or other contracts comprising a part of the Hydrocarbon Interests and
other contracts and agreements forming a part of the Oil and Gas Properties. Specifically in connection with the foregoing, except
for those as could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) no Oil and Gas Property is subject to having
allowable production reduced below the full and regular allowable (including the maximum permissible tolerance) because of any
overproduction (whether or not the same was permissible at the time) and (ii) to the knowledge of Borrower, none of the wells comprising
a part of the Oil and Gas Properties (or Properties unitized therewith) is deviated from the vertical more than the maximum permitted
by Government Requirements, and such wells are, in fact, bottomed under and are producing from, and the well bores are wholly within,
the Oil and Gas Properties (or in the case of wells located on Properties unitized therewith, such unitized Properties). All pipelines,
wells, gas processing plants, platforms and other material improvements, fixtures and equipment owned in whole or in part by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that are necessary to conduct normal operations are being maintained in a state adequate to
conduct normal operations, and with respect to such of the foregoing that are operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
in a manner consistent with the Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ past practices (other than those the failure of which
to maintain in accordance with this ‎Section 7.17 could not reasonably be expect to have a Material Adverse Effect).

 

Section
7.18    Gas Imbalances, Prepayments. As of the Effective Date, except as set forth
on Schedule 7.18 or on the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to ‎Section 8.12(c), on a net basis
there are no gas imbalances, take or pay or other prepayments which would require the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries
to deliver Hydrocarbons produced from the Oil and Gas Properties at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full
payment therefor exceeding 500 mmcf equivalent in the aggregate.

 

Section
7.19    Marketing of Production. Except for contracts listed and in effect on the
Effective Date on Schedule 7.19, and thereafter either disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent or included in the
most recently delivered Reserve Report (with respect to all of which contracts the Borrower represents that it or its Subsidiaries
are receiving a price for all production sold thereunder which is computed substantially in 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 which are not cancelable on 60 days’ notice or less without penalty or detriment for the sale of production
from the Borrower’s or the Restricted Subsidiaries’ Hydrocarbons (including, without limitation, calls on or other
rights to purchase, production, whether or not the same are currently being exercised) 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 Effective Date.

 

Section
7.20    Swap Agreements. Schedule 7.20, as of the Effective Date, and after
the Effective Date, each report required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.01(d), sets forth, a true
and complete list of all Swap Agreements of the Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary, the material terms thereof (including
the type, term, effective date, termination date and notional amounts or volumes), the net mark to market value thereof, all credit
support agreements relating thereto (including any margin required or supplied) and the counterparty to each such agreement.

Section
7.21    Use of Loans and Letters of Credit. The proceeds of the Loans and the Letters
of Credit shall be used (i) to provide working capital for exploration and production, midstream trading and marketing operations
and (ii) for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including the acquisition of exploration and
production and midstream properties. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries are not engaged principally, or as one of its or their important
activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying
margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Board). No part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit
will be used for any purpose which violates the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board.

 

Section
7.22    Solvency. Before and after giving effect to the Transactions, (a) the aggregate
assets, at a fair valuation, of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will exceed the aggregate Debt
of the Borrower on a consolidated basis, as the Debt becomes absolute and matures, (b) none of the Borrower nor any Restricted
Subsidiary will have incurred or intended to incur, and will not believe that it will incur, Debt beyond its ability to pay such
Debt as such Debt becomes absolute and matures and (c) none of the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary will have (nor will have
any reason to believe that it will have thereafter) unreasonably small capital for the conduct of its business.

    	-63-

    	 

    

 

(b)      In the event
of an Interim Redetermination, except in connection with the first redetermination, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative

Agent as soon as possible, but in any event no later than forty-five (45) days following the receipt of such request.

 

(c)      With the delivery
of each Reserve Report, the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a certificate from a Responsible
Officer certifying that to his knowledge, after reasonable investigation, in all material respects: (i) the information contained
in the Reserve Report and any other information delivered in connection therewith is based on information that was prepared in
good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time, (ii) the Borrower or its Subsidiaries owns good and defensible
title to the proved Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report and such Properties are free of all Liens except for
Liens permitted by ‎Section 9.03, (iii) except as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate, on a net basis there are
no gas imbalances, take or pay or other prepayments in excess of the volume specified in ‎Section 7.18 with respect
to its Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report which would require the Borrower or any Subsidiary to deliver Hydrocarbons
either generally or produced from such Oil and Gas Properties at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full payment
therefor, (iv) none of the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ proved Oil and Gas Properties have been sold since the
date of the last Borrowing Base determination except as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate, which certificate shall list
all of its proved Oil and Gas Properties sold and in such detail as reasonably required by the Administrative Agent and (v) attached
thereto is a schedule of the proved Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report that are Mortgaged Properties and demonstrating
the percentage of the Borrowing Base that the value of such Mortgaged Properties represent. Upon the request of the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower shall attach to such certificate a list of all marketing agreements entered into subsequent to the later of

to list on Schedule 7.19 had such agreement been in effect on the Effective Date

 

Section
8.13    Title Information.

 

(a)      On or before
the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of each Reserve Report required by Section 8.12(a)‎, the Borrower
will deliver title information in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent covering enough of the proved Oil and
Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report that were not included in the immediately preceding Reserve Report, so that the
Administrative Agent shall have received together with title information previously delivered, satisfactory title information on
at least 80% of the total value of the proved Oil and Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report.

 

    	-64-

    	 

    

 

(b)      If the Borrower
has provided title information for additional Properties under ‎Section 8.13(a), the Borrower shall, within 60
days of notice from the Administrative Agent that title defects or exceptions exist with respect to such additional Properties,
either (i) cure any such title defects or exceptions (including defects or exceptions as to priority) which are not permitted by
‎Section 9.03 raised by such information, (ii) substitute acceptable Mortgaged Properties with no title defects or exceptions
except for Excepted Liens (other than Excepted Liens described in clauses (e), (g) and (h) of such definition) having an equivalent
value or (iii) deliver title information in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent so that they shall have received,
together with title information previously delivered, satisfactory title information on at least 80% of the value of the Oil and
Gas Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report.

 

(c)      If the Borrower
is unable to cure any title defect requested to be cured within the 60-day period or the Borrower does not comply with the requirement
to provide acceptable title information covering 80% of the value of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the most recent Reserve
Report, such default shall not be a Default, but instead the Administrative Agent and/or the Required Lenders shall have the right
to exercise the following remedy in their sole discretion from time to time, and any failure to so exercise this remedy at any
time shall not be a waiver as to future exercise of the remedy by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. To the extent that the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders are not satisfied with title to any Mortgaged Property after the 60-day period has
elapsed, such unacceptable Mortgaged Property shall not count towards the 80% requirement and the Administrative Agent may send
a notice to the Borrower and the Lenders that the then outstanding Borrowing Base shall be reduced by an amount as determined by
the Required Lenders to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the requirement to provide acceptable title information on
80% of the total value of the Oil and Gas Properties. This new Borrowing Base shall become effective immediately after receipt
of such notice.

 

Section
8.14    Additional Collateral. In connection with each redetermination of the Borrowing
Base, the Borrower shall review the Reserve Report and the list of current Mortgaged Properties (as described in ‎Section
8.12(c)) to ascertain whether the Mortgaged Properties represent at least 80% of the total value of the proved Oil and Gas
Properties owned by Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries and evaluated in the most recently completed Reserve Report after
giving effect to exploration and production activities, acquisitions, dispositions and production. In the event that the Mortgaged
Properties do not represent at least 80% of such total value evaluated in the most recently completed Reserve Report, then the
Borrower shall, and shall cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, grant to the Administrative Agent as security for the Obligations

with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. In no event, however, shall the Administrative
Agent be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this
Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable law. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, the Arranger shall not have any obligation
to perform any act in respect thereof. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with
the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or the Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall
be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02), and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall not
be liable for any action taken or not taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument
referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith including its own ordinary negligence, except
for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section
11.04    Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument,
document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent 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 be made by the proper Person, and
shall not incur any liability for relying thereon and each of the Borrower, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby waives the
right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of such statement, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct
by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with
the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the
holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof permitted hereunder

Section
11.05    Subagents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties

sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of the preceding Sections of this ‎ARTICLE XI shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties

Section
11.06    Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment

at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have
the right, in consultation with and upon the approval of the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing),
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of
its resignation or removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders
and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an
Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and
the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower
to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower
and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this ‎ARTICLE XI
and ‎Section 12.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents
and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting
as Administrative Agent.

Section
11.07    Administrative Agent as Lender. Each bank 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 such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally
engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative
Agent hereunder.

 

Section
11.08    No Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges that 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 each other Loan Document to which it is a party. Each
Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and
based on such documents and information as it shall 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, any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance
by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided
for herein or to inspect the Properties or books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents
and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, neither the Administrative
Agent nor the Arranger shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning
the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates. In this regard, each Lender acknowledges that Andrews Kurth LLP is acting in this
transaction as special counsel to the Administrative Agent only, except to the extent otherwise expressly stated in any legal opinion
or any Loan Document. Each other party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in
connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein.

Section
11.11    Filing of Proofs of Claim. In case of any Default or Event of Default
under ‎Section 10.01(h), Section 10.01(i) or Section 10.01(j), the Administrative Agent (regardless

Agent has made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Exposure and
all other Obligations that is owing and unpaid and (ii) file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to

and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.

receiver, assignee, trustee, conservator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding: (i) to make such
payments to the Administrative Agent; and (ii) if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly
to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under‎
‎Section 3.03 and ‎Section 12.03. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative
Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect
of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. Each Lender retains its right to file and prove a claim separately.

(b)      (i)      Subject
to the conditions set forth in ‎Section 12.04(b)(ii), any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing
to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: (1) the Borrower, provided
that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender, an Affiliate of
a Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other
assignee, provided further that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall

Lender remaining a party hereto after giving effect to the assignment shall be at least $10,000,000, unless, in each case, each

Maximum Credit Amount of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof
from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof
as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available
for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice. In connection with any changes to the Register, if necessary, the Administrative Agent will reflect the revisions on Annex

completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation
fee referred to in ‎Section 12.04(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by ‎Section 12.04(b),
the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register.

banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (1) such Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (2) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto
for the performance of such obligations and (3) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders

In addition such agreement must provide that the Participant be bound by the provisions of ‎Section 12.03. Subject to
Section 12.04(c)(ii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01,
Section 5.02 and ‎Section 5.03 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest
by assignment pursuant to ‎Section 12.04(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled
to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to ‎Section
4.01(c) as though it were a Lender.

 

  (i)      A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.01 or ‎Section 5.03
than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would
be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of ‎Section 5.03 unless the Borrower is
notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply
with Section 5.03(e) as though it were a Lender.

 

(d)      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, and this ‎Section 12.04(d)
shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security
interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender
as a party hereto.

 

(e)      Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Section 12.04, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender or any
grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower to file a registration
statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state.

Section
12.05    Survival; Revival; Reinstatement.

 

(a)      All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in
connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other
parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters
of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at
the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued
interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit
is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 5.01, Section
5.02, ‎Section 5.03 and ‎Section 12.03 and ‎ARTICLE XI shall survive and remain in full force
and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or
termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision
hereof or thereof.

 

(b)      To the extent
that any payments on the Obligations or proceeds of any collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy law, common
law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Obligations so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds
had not been received and the Administrative Agent’s, and the Lenders’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and
remedies under this Agreement and each Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Loan Document
shall be automatically reinstated and the Borrower shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders to effect such reinstatement.

 

Section
12.06    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

 

(a)      This Agreement
may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an
original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.

 

(b)      This Agreement,
the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Arranger and the Administrative
Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and
all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement
and the other Loan Documents represent the final agreement among the parties hereto and thereto and may not be contradicted by
evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between
the parties.

 

(c)      Except as
provided in ‎Section 6.01(a), this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative
Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures
of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section
12.07    Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision
in any other jurisdiction.

 

Section
12.08    Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and
other obligations (of whatsoever kind, including, without limitation, Swap Agreements with the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary)
at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary
against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary owed to such Lender now or hereafter existing
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this ‎Section 12.08
are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or its Affiliates may have.

 

Section
12.09    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

 

(a)      This Agreement
and the Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard
to any choice-of-law provisions that would require the application of the law of another jurisdiction; provided, to the extent
any of the Security Instruments recite that they are governed by the law of another jurisdiction, or any action or event taken
thereunder (such as foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property) requires application of or compliance with the law of another jurisdiction,
such provisions and concepts shall apply.

 

(b)      Any legal
action or proceeding with respect to the Loan Documents shall be brought in the courts of the Supreme Court 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, by execution
and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereby accepts for itself and (to the extent permitted by law) in respect of its property,
generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each party hereby irrevocably waives any objection, including,
without limitation, any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter
have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such respective jurisdictions. This submission to jurisdiction is non-exclusive
and does not preclude a party from obtaining jurisdiction over another party in any court otherwise having jurisdiction.

 

(c)      Each party
irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing
of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to it at the address specified in ‎Section 12.01
or such other address as is specified pursuant to Section 12.01 (or its assignment and assumption), such service to become
effective thirty (30) days after such mailing. Nothing herein shall affect the right of a party or any holder of a note to serve
process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against another party in any
other jurisdiction.

 

    	-97-

    	 

    

 

(d)      Each party
hereby (i) irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, trial by jury in any legal action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and for any counterclaim therein; (ii) irrevocably waives, to
the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any such litigation any special, exemplary,
punitive or consequential damages, or damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages; (iii) certifies that no party hereto
nor any representative or agent of counsel for any party hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, or implied that such party
would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers, and (iv) acknowledges that it has been induced to
enter into this Agreement, the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by, among other things, the
mutual waivers and certifications contained in this ‎Section 12.09.

 

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

 

Section
12.11    Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and
the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed
(a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (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 any regulatory authority
or self-regulatory body, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process;
provided Borrower has been given reasonable advance notice thereof, to the extent permitted by law, and been afforded an opportunity
to limit or protest the disclosure, (d) to any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (e) in connection with
the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section 12.11, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee
of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or
its advisors) to any Swap Agreement relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to
the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 12.11
or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source
other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section 12.11, “Information” means all information
received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and their businesses, other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure
by the Borrower or a Subsidiary;. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 12.11
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
herein to the contrary, any party hereto (and each employee, representative or other agent of such party) may disclose without
limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each
case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of
any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to that party relating to such tax treatment or tax structure;
provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment
or tax structure of the transactions, as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document
or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section
12.12    Exculpation Provisions. Each of the parties hereto specifically agrees
that it has a duty to read this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and agrees that it is charged with notice and knowledge
of the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; that it has in fact read this Agreement and is fully informed and
has full notice and knowledge of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; that it has been represented by independent legal
counsel of its choice throughout the negotiations preceding its execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and has
received the advice of its attorney in entering into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and that it recognizes that certain
of the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may result, subject to the terms hereof and thereof and applicable
law, in one party assuming the liability inherent in some aspects of the transaction and relieving the other party of its responsibility
for such liability. Each party hereto agrees and covenants that it will not contest the validity or enforceability of any exculpatory
provision of this Agreement and the other loan documents on the basis that the party had no notice or knowledge of such provision
or that the provision is not “conspicuous.”

 

Section
12.13    No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents,
and the agreement of the Lenders to make Loans and the Issuing Bank to issue, amend, renew or extend Letters of Credit hereunder
are solely for the benefit of the Borrower, and no other Person (including, without limitation, any Subsidiary of the Borrower,
any obligor, contractor, subcontractor, supplier or materialmen) shall have any rights, claims, remedies or privileges hereunder
or under any other Loan Document against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender for any reason whatsoever. There
are no third party beneficiaries.

 

Section
12.14    Collateral Matters; Swap Agreements. The benefit of the Security Instruments
and of the provisions of this Agreement relating to any collateral securing the Obligations shall also extend to and be available
to those Lenders or their Affiliates which are counterparties to any Swap Agreement with the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries on a pro rata basis in respect of any obligations of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries which arise
under any such Swap Agreement so long as such Person or its Affiliate was a Lender under the Prior Agreement or this Agreement
at the time of entering into such Swap Agreement. No Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender shall have any voting rights under any
Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under any such Swap Agreements.

 

Section
12.15    USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that
pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot
Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes
the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with
the Patriot Act.

Section
12.16    Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or reimbursement obligation, together with all fees, charges and other
amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan or reimbursement obligation under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”),
shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such
Loan or reimbursement obligation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or reimbursement
obligation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate and, to
the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or reimbursement obligation but
were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender
in respect of other Loans, reimbursement obligations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Highest Lawful Rate therefor)
until such cumulated amount shall have been received by such Lender and in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, under
any circumstances the aggregate amounts taken, reserved, charged, received or paid on the Loans include amounts which by applicable
law are deemed interest which would exceed the Highest Lawful 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 Loans (or if such Loans shall have been paid in full, refund said
excess to the Borrower). In the event that the maturity of the Obligations 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 Highest Lawful 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 Obligations (or, if the applicable Loans shall have been paid in full, refunded
to the Borrower of such interest). 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
12.17    Amendment and Restatement.

 

(a)      On the Effective
Date, the Prior Agreement shall be amended, restated and superseded in its entirety hereby. The parties hereto acknowledge and
agree that (i) this Agreement, any promissory notes delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(f) and the other Loan Documents
executed and delivered in connection herewith do not constitute a novation or termination of the “Obligations” (as
defined in the Prior Agreement) under the Prior Agreement as in effect prior to the Effective Date and (ii) such “Obligations”
are in all respects continuing with only the terms thereof being modified as provided in this Agreement.

 

(b)      Notwithstanding
the modifications effected by this Agreement of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Borrower contained in the
Prior Agreement, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any causes of action or other rights created in favor of the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in each case, party to or its successors arising out of the representations and warranties
of the Borrower contained in or delivered in connection with the Prior Agreement shall survive the execution, delivery and effectiveness
of this Agreement to the extent provided in the Prior Agreement prior to the termination thereof.

 

    	-100-

    	 

    

 

(c)      All indemnification
obligations of the Borrower arising under the Prior Agreement (including any arising from a breach of the representations thereunder)
shall survive to the extent provided in the Prior Agreement prior to the termination thereof.

 

Section
12.18    Exiting Lender. UBS Loan Finance LLC, as a “Lender” under
the Prior Agreement (the “Exiting Lender”), hereby sells, assigns, transfers and conveys to UBS AG, Stamford
Branch (the “New Lender”), and the New Lender hereby purchases and accepts, all of the commitments and loans
of the Exiting Lender under the Prior Agreement such that, after giving effect to this Agreement, (a) the Exiting Lender shall
(i) be paid in full for all amounts owing to the Exiting Lender under the Prior Agreement, (ii) cease to be a “Lender”
under the Prior Agreement and the “Loan Documents” as defined therein and (iii) relinquish its rights (provided
that it shall still be entitled to any rights of indemnification in respect of any circumstance, event or condition arising prior
to the Effective Date) and be released from its obligations under the Prior Agreement and the “Loan Documents” as defined
therein and (b) the Maximum Credit Amount of the New Lender shall be as set forth on Annex I hereto. The foregoing
assignment, transfer and conveyance are without recourse to the Exiting Lender and without any warranties whatsoever by the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Exiting Lender as to title, enforceability, collectability, documentation or freedom from liens
or encumbrances, in whole or in part, other than the warranty of the Exiting Lender that it has not previously sold, transferred,
conveyed or encumbered such interests. The New Lender and the Administrative Agent shall make all appropriate adjustments in payments
under the Prior Agreement for periods prior to the adjustment date among themselves. The Exiting Lender is executing this Agreement
for the sole purpose of evidencing its agreement to this Section 12.18 only and for no other purpose.

FORM OF NOTE

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED NOTE

  

	$[_________]	 	_____________, 201_

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MAGNUM
HUNTER RESOURCES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay [_________________]
(the “Lender”), the lesser of (i) [_______________] DOLLARS ($[____________]) and (ii) the aggregate unpaid
Loans made by the Lender pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as hereinafter defined), in lawful money of the United States of America
and in immediately available funds, on the dates and in the principal amounts provided in the Credit Agreement referred to below,
on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Credit Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
that are defined in the Credit Agreement have the meanings as defined in the Credit Agreement.

 

The Borrower promises to

Parties a security interest in all of such Debtor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following property, whether

(n)      all Proceeds
of the collateral described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (m).

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
Debtors do not grant a security interest in, and the Collateral shall not include the rights or interests of any Debtor in (x) any
Collateral including, without limitation, any Governmental Approval or Contract to which such Debtor is a party or any of its rights
or interests thereunder, or any Equipment or Intellectual Property, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such a grant is
prohibited by reason of (A) an applicable law or regulation to which such Debtor is subject or (B) an existing and enforceable
negative pledge or anti-assignment provision (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant
to the UCC or any other applicable law or principles of equity), provided, that immediately upon the ineffectiveness, lapse
or termination of any such provision, the Collateral shall include, and such Debtor shall be deemed to have granted a security
interest in, all such rights and interests as if such provision had never been in effect, (y) any Excluded Account; or (z) Equity
Interests of Eureka Hunter or any Unrestricted Subsidiary that owns such Equity Interests.

 

2.02       Termination of
Security Interests. This Agreement and the Security Interests shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert
to the Debtors when (i) all outstanding Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full, (ii) all Commitments under

warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of the
applicable Debtor and to be released and cancelled all licenses and rights referred to in Section 5.12(b)(i). The Administrative

and release of the Security Interests on the Collateral.

of the Liens on such Collateral.

 

2.04       Security Interest
Absolute. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder,
the Liens created hereby, and the obligations of the Debtors under this Agreement are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and
will remain in full force and effect without regard to, and will not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise
affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever (other than termination pursuant to Section 2.02 or partial release
pursuant to Section 2.03), including:

 

Exhibit F-1-7

    	 

    	 

    

  

(a)      any renewal,
extension, amendment, or modification of, or addition or supplement to or deletion from, any of the Loan Documents or any other
instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof;

 

(b)      any waiver
of, consent to or departure from, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any of the Secured Obligations,
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or other instrument or agreement relating thereto, or any exercise or non-exercise of any
right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of the Secured Obligations, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
such other instrument or agreement relating thereto;

 

(c)      any furnishing
of any additional security for the Secured Obligations or any part thereof to the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any
acceptance thereof by the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any substitution, sale, exchange, release, surrender or realization
of or upon any such security by the Administrative Agent or any other Person or the failure to create, preserve, validate, perfect
or protect any other Lien granted to, or purported to be granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured
Party;

 

(d)      any invalidity,
irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument
relating thereto or any security therefor;

 

(e)      the acceleration
of the maturity of any of the Secured Obligations or any other modification of the time of payment thereof; or

 

(f)      any other
event or circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor, it
being the intent of this Section 2.04 that the obligations of the Debtors hereunder shall be absolute, irrevocable
and unconditional under any and all circumstances.

 

2.05       Joinder of Additional
Guarantors. Upon the execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement by any Subsidiary that is required to be a Guarantor pursuant
to Section 8.16 of the Credit Agreement, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Debtor” for all purposes hereunder with
the same force and effect as if originally named as a Debtor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall
not require the consent of any Debtor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Debtor shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding the addition of any new Debtor as a party to this Agreement.

 

2.06       Limit of Liability.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest granted by each Debtor hereunder shall be limited to the extent necessary
so that its obligations hereunder would not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any
comparable provisions of any applicable state law.

 

Exhibit F-1-8

    	 

    	 

    

 

2.07       Reinstatement.
This Agreement and the Liens created hereunder shall automatically be reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment
by or on behalf of any Debtor in respect of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any holder of
the Secured Obligations, whether as a result of any fraudulent conveyance, proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.
EACH DEBTOR SHALL DEFEND AND INDEMNIFY EACH SECURED PARTY FROM AND AGAINST ANY claim, damage,
loss, liability, cost, or expense UNDER THIS SECTION 2.07 (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES)
IN THE DEFENSE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT, INCLUDING such claim, damage, loss, liability,
cost, or expense arising as a result of the INDEMNIFIED SECURED PARTY’s OWN NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY but excluding
such claim, damage, loss, liability, cost, or expense that is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified SECURED PARTY’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

Each Debtor represents and
warrants to the Secured Parties as follows:

 

4.01     Security Instruments.

 

(a)      This Agreement
is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a legal, valid and enforceable
Lien on the Collateral and, (i) when UCC financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Annex 5
and (ii) upon the taking of possession or Control by the Administrative Agent of the Collateral with respect to which a security
interest may be perfected only by possession or Control (which possession or Control shall be given to the Administrative Agent
to the extent possession or Control by the Administrative Agent is required by this Agreement), the Lien created by this Agreement
shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on all right, title and interest of the Debtors in the Collateral, to the extent such Lien
can be created and perfected under the UCC, in each case subject to no Liens other than Permitted Liens.

 

(b)      When an
Intellectual Property Security Agreement is filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the Lien created by this Agreement
shall constitute a perfected Lien on all right, title and interest of the applicable Debtor thereunder in the Intellectual Property
owned by it at such time which is registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, subject to no Liens other than
Permitted Liens.

 

(c)      Each Security
Document delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 or 6.02, as applicable, of the Credit Agreement will, upon execution and delivery thereof,
be effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable
Lien on all of the Debtors’ right, title and interest in and to the Collateral thereunder, and when all appropriate filings
or recordings are made in the appropriate offices as may be required under applicable law, or upon the taking of possession or
Control by the Administrative Agent of Collateral with respect to which a security interest may be perfected only by possession
or Control, the Lien created by such Security Document will constitute a fully perfected Lien on all right, title and interest

and such Collateral is free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens. To the extent the Security Interest can be created
and perfected under the UCC, the Security Interests have attached and upon the filing of the financing statements and delivery
of Collateral which may be perfected only by possession or Control, will constitute, under the UCC, perfected security interests
in all such Collateral prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Liens). No currently effective financing statement or other
instrument similar in effect is on file in any recording office covering all or any part of the Collateral, except such as may
have been filed evidencing Permitted Liens or except as will be released concurrently with the closing of the transactions contemplated
in the Credit Agreement. No Person other than the Administrative Agent has Control or possession of all or any part of the Collateral

thereto.

Statements and Liens. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Debtor shall not file or suffer to
be on file, or authorize or permit to be filed or to be on file, in any jurisdiction, any financing statement or like instrument
with respect to the Collateral in which the Administrative Agent is not named as the sole secured party for the benefit of the
Secured Parties except to the extent such filing or like instrument pertains to any Permitted Lien or filings for notice purposes
only.

Exhibit F-1-15

    	 

    	 

    

 

5.03       Reports.
Each Debtor shall furnish to the Administrative Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing
the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all
in reasonable detail; provided, however, absent the existence of an Event of Default, the Debtors shall not be required to deliver
such information more frequently than quarterly. Promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent, following receipt by the Administrative
Agent of any reports pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent revised Annexes 2
and 4 to include Trademarks and Patents that become part of the Collateral under this Agreement.

 

5.04       Adverse Claims.
Each Debtor shall defend, all at its own expense, such Debtor’s title and the existence, perfection and first priority of
the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral against all adverse claims (other than Permitted Liens).

 

5.05       Prohibition of
Certain Changes. Except to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement, no Debtor shall change its (i) name, identity,
corporate structure or the jurisdiction under which it is organized, (ii) chief executive office or chief place of business
or (iii) the locations where it keeps or holds any Collateral (except Inventory in transit from one such location to another)
or any records relating thereto from the applicable locations described in Annexes 8 and 9 hereof, unless such
Debtor shall have given the Administrative Agent 30 days’ prior notice thereof and, if reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent upon the direction of the Required Lenders, delivered an opinion of counsel with respect thereto. It will not in any event
change the location of any Collateral owned by it if such change would cause the Security Interest in such Collateral to lapse
or cease to be perfected.

 

5.06       Reserved.

 

5.07       Collateral Held
by Others. If any of its Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee or agent, each
Debtor shall notify such warehouseman, bailee or agent of the Security Interests and instruct it to hold all such Collateral for
the Administrative Agent’s account subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions (which shall permit such Collateral
to be removed by such Debtor in the ordinary course of business until the Administrative Agent notifies such warehouseman, bailee
or agent that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon request by Administrative Agent, each Debtor shall use
its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as soon as practicable after the date hereof with respect to each location set forth
in Annex 16, where such Debtor maintains Collateral, a waiver of bailee’s and/or landlord’s lien, as applicable,
and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a bailee letter and/or landlord lien waiver, as applicable, from all such bailees
and landlords, as applicable, who from time to time have possession of Collateral in the ordinary course of such Debtor’s
business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors shall not be required to take any action under this Section 5.07 with
respect to any Inventory in-transit to the applicable purchaser thereof.

 

5.08       Records.
Each Debtor shall (i) keep accurate Records and shall stamp or otherwise mark such Records in such manner as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request in order to reflect the Security Interests and (ii) give the Administrative Agent at least 30 days’
notice before it changes the location of any office where such Debtor keeps the Records.

 

Exhibit F-1-16

    	 

    	 

    

 

5.09       Collection of
Accounts. Each Debtor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be collected from its account debtors, as and when
due, any and all amounts owing under or on account of each of its Accounts (including Accounts that are delinquent, such Accounts
to be collected in accordance with lawful collection procedures) and shall apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts
as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such Accounts. The costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) of collection,
whether incurred by a Debtor or the Administrative Agent, shall be borne by such Debtor.

 

5.10       Disposition of
Collateral. No Debtor shall sell, lease, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any
of its Collateral except as permitted by the Credit Agreement.

 

5.11       Protection of
Intellectual Property. Each Debtor shall timely pay all fees (including maintenance fees), file all documents or declarations
(including applications, applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability) and take all other action
necessary to obtain, maintain and renew each material Patent and material Trademark included in the Collateral. Each Debtor shall
notify the Administrative Agent at the end of each fiscal year if it knows that any application or registration relating to any
material Intellectual Property owned or licensed by it may become abandoned or dedicated, or of any adverse determination or development
(including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark
Office or any court) regarding such Debtor’s ownership of such Intellectual Property, its right to register or patent the
same, or its right to keep and maintain the same. If any Debtor’s rights to any Intellectual Property are infringed, misappropriated
or diluted by a third party, such Debtor shall notify the Administrative Agent at the end of the fiscal year in which Debtor learned
of such infringement, misappropriation or dilution and shall take all actions as such Debtor shall reasonably deem appropriate
under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.

 

5.12       Special Provisions
Relating to Certain Collateral.

 

(a)         Contracts.

 

(i)        Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Debtor shall remain liable to perform all of its duties and obligations under each
of the Contracts included in the Collateral to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed. The exercise by the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of any of the rights and remedies hereunder shall not release any Debtor from any
of its duties or obligations under the Contracts. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any duty,
obligation or liability under such Contracts included in the Collateral or otherwise in respect of the Collateral by reason of
this Agreement or be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Debtor under the Contracts or otherwise in respect
of the Collateral or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment or any other right assigned hereunder.

 

(ii)        During
the existence of an Event of Default, if Debtor fails to perform any agreement contained herein or in any of the Contracts, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) itself perform, or cause the performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable
fees, costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by or on behalf of Debtors
and shall be Secured Obligations to the Administrative Agent.

 

Exhibit F-1-17

    	 

    	 

    

 

(b)       Intellectual
Property.

 

(i)        For the
purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Article VI at such time as the Administrative
Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Debtor hereby grants to the
Administrative Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or
other compensation to any Debtor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter
acquired by such Debtor, wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any
of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; provided,
however, such license shall only be effective during the existence of an Event of Default.

 

(ii)        Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement, so long
as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Debtor will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license,
sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of
the business of such Debtor. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, upon the request of any Debtor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates
or other documents, in the form so requested, that such Debtor shall have certified are appropriate (in its judgment) to allow
it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to clause (i) immediately
above as to any specific Intellectual Property). Further, upon satisfaction of the conditions to termination of this Agreement
described in Section 2.02 or the release of any Intellectual Property pursuant to Section 2.03, the Administrative
Agent shall grant back to Debtor the license granted pursuant to clause (i) immediately above. The exercise of rights and
remedies under Article VI by the Administrative Agent shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses
theretofore granted by any Debtor in accordance with the first sentence of this clause (ii).

 

(c)        Deposit
Accounts. No Debtor shall grant Control of any Deposit Account to any Person other than the Administrative Agent. Subject to
the time period set forth in Section 3.02(e), the Debtors shall not permit the aggregate amount held in Deposit Accounts
(other than Excluded Accounts) and owned by the Debtors over which the Administrative Agent does not have Control to exceed $250,000
at any time.

 

(d)        Letters
of Credit. If any Debtor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit in an amount in excess of $100,000 now or hereafter
issued in favor of such Debtor, such Debtor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and such Debtor shall, at the
request of the Administrative Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Administrative
Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Administrative Agent to become the
transferee beneficiary of such letter of credit, with the Administrative Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any
drawing under the letter of credit are to be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement.

 

Exhibit F-1-18

    	 

    	 

    

 

(e)        Commercial
Tort Claims. If any Debtor shall at any time hold or acquire a commercial tort claim, such Debtor shall immediately notify
the Administrative Agent in writing signed by such Debtor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Administrative Agent in
such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to
be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 

(f)        Securities
Collateral.

 

(i)        No Debtor
shall take any action that would result in (A) the revocation of any election to treat any Securities Collateral as certificated
securities, and (B) an election to treat as certificated securities any Securities Collateral that constitute uncertificated
securities.

 

(ii)        So long
as Administrative Agent has not exercised remedies with respect to the Collateral under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Debtors reserve the right to exercise all voting and other
rights, title and interest with respect to the Collateral (except as limited by the Loan Documents) and to receive all income,
gains, profits, dividends and other distributions from the Collateral whether non-cash dividends, cash, options, warrants, stock
splits, reclassifications, rights, instruments or other investment property or other property or proceeds from time to time received,
receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such rights and interests (except as limited
by the Loan Documents); provided that no vote shall be cast, right exercised or other action taken which could reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(iii)        In furtherance
of the right of the Administrative Agent to exercise voting rights following an Event of Default, each Debtor shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent a proxy in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent with respect to each item of Securities
Collateral owned by it. No Debtor shall grant a proxy that would conflict with any proxy granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant
to the preceding sentence so long as the Security Interests remain in effect.

REMEDIES

 

6.01       Events of Default;
Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

 

(a)        the Administrative
Agent shall have, and in its discretion may exercise, the rights and remedies with respect to this Agreement as more particularly
provided herein or in the Credit Agreement;

 

(b)        each Debtor
shall, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, assemble Collateral owned by it (and not otherwise in the possession
of the Administrative Agent) at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Administrative Agent and such Debtor, designated
in such request;

 

(c)        the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), without notice to any Debtor and at such times as the Administrative Agent in its sole
discretion may determine, exercise any or all of Debtors’ rights in, to and under, or in any way connected to, the Collateral
and the Administrative Agent shall otherwise have and may (but shall not be obligated to) exercise all of the rights, powers, privileges
and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not said UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction
where the rights, powers, privileges and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights, powers, privileges and remedies to
which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights, powers, privileges and remedies
hereunder may be asserted, including the right, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to exercise all voting, consensual
and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Administrative Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof
(and the Debtors agree to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);

 

(d)        the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) make any reasonable compromise or settlement it deems desirable with respect to any of
the Collateral and may (but shall not be obligated to) extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise
modify the terms, of all or any part of the Collateral;

 

(e)        the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in its name or in the name of any Debtor or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive
any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral;

 

Exhibit F-1-20

    	 

    	 

    

 

(f)        the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) sell, lease, assign or dispose of all or any part of the Collateral which shall then
be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party or any
of their respective agents at such place or places as the Administrative Agent deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future
delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention
to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof except such notice as is required by applicable law and cannot be
waived. If, pursuant to applicable law, prior notice of sale of the Collateral under this Section is required to be given to any
Debtor, each Debtor hereby acknowledges that the minimum time required by such applicable law, or if no minimum time is specified,
10 days, shall be deemed a reasonable notice period. The Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party or anyone else may be
the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the maximum
extent permitted by applicable law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right
of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of Debtors, any such demand, notice and
right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The Administrative
Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time
by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may
be so adjourned. The Collateral may be sold in one or more sales, at public or private sale, conducted by any officer or agent
of, or auctioneer or attorney for, the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s place of business or elsewhere,
for cash, upon credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery, and at such price or prices and on such terms as
the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate in its reasonable discretion. The Administrative Agent may, in its reasonable discretion,
at any such sale restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment intention
to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law. Upon any public or private sale the Administrative Agent shall have the
right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold
in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale pursuant to
any such notice. In case of any sale of all of any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold
may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the full selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but neither the Administrative
Agent nor any Secured Party shall incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral
so sold, and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold pursuant to the provisions hereof. All cash proceeds
of any such sale, and any other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative
Agent, be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for or applied then or at any time thereafter, in whole or in part, by
the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to the payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations in accordance
with Section 6.04;

 

(g)        upon request
of the Administrative Agent, each Debtor shall promptly notify (and each Debtor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent so to
notify) each account debtor in respect of any Accounts or Instruments that such Collateral has been assigned to the Administrative
Agent hereunder, and that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral are to be made directly to the Administrative
Agent;

 

Exhibit F-1-21

    	 

    	 

    

 

(h)        the Administrative
Agent shall have the right to endorse, assign or otherwise transfer to or to register in the name of the Administrative Agent or
any of its nominees or endorse for negotiation any or all of the Securities Collateral, without any indication that such Securities
Collateral is subject to the Security Interests hereunder. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time
to exchange certificates representing or evidencing Securities Collateral for certificates of smaller or larger denominations;

 

(i)        the Administrative
Agent may vote or exercise any and all of the Debtors’ rights or powers incident to their ownership of the Securities Collateral,
including any rights or powers to manage or control the Guarantors;

 

(j)        the Administrative
Agent may cause any action at law or suit in equity or other proceeding to be instituted and prosecuted to enforce any rights vested
in it by this Agreement or by law or included in the Collateral, subject to the provisions and requirements hereof and thereof,
or to aid in the exercise of any power herein or therein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder and sale under a judgment or
decree in any judicial proceeding;

 

(k)        in connection
with any acceleration and foreclosure, the Administrative Agent may lawfully and peacefully take possession of the Collateral and
lawfully and peacefully render it usable and repair and renovate the same, without, however, any obligation to do so, and lawfully
and peacefully enter upon any location where the Collateral may be located for that purpose, control, manage, operate, rent and
lease the Collateral, collect all rents and income from the Collateral and apply the same to reimburse the Secured Parties for
any cost or expenses incurred hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents and to the payment or performance of any Debtor’s
obligations hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, and apply the balance to the other Secured Obligations and any remaining
excess balance to whomsoever is legally entitled thereto;

 

(l)        the Administrative
Agent may secure the appointment of a receiver for the Collateral or any part thereof;

 

(m)        the Administrative
Agent may lawfully and peacefully occupy any premises owned or leased by any Debtor where the Collateral or any part thereof is
assembled for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to
any Debtor in respect of such occupation;

 

(n)        the Administrative
Agent may give instructions to the issuer of any Securities Collateral that is an uncertificated security with respect to such
uncertificated security.

 

Exhibit F-1-22

    	 

    	 

    

 

Each Debtor recognizes that,
by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the
Administrative Agent may be compelled, subject to the notice provision provided for in paragraph (f) of this Section 6.01,
with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral constituting a security (as such term is defined in the Securities
Act of 1933), to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account,
for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Debtor acknowledges that any such private sale may
be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions,
and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially
reasonable manner and that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay
the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Debtor or the issuer thereof to register it for public
sale.

 

6.02       Deficiency.
If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral by virtue of the exercise of remedies under
Section 6.01 are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such exercise and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations,
the Administrative Agent shall retain all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, and each Debtor shall remain liable, with
respect to any deficiency.

 

6.03       Private Sale.
The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall incur no liability as a result of the sale, lease or other disposition
of all or any part of the Collateral, at any private sale pursuant to Section 6.01 conducted in a commercially reasonable
manner. Subject to and without limitation of the preceding sentence, Debtors hereby waive any claims against the Administrative
Agent or any other Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such
a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of
the Secured Obligations, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to
more than one offeree.

 

6.04       Application of
Proceeds. Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or
any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by the Administrative Agent under this Article VI,
shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 10.02(c) of the Credit Agreement.

 

6.05       Attorney-in-Fact.
Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Administrative Agent while no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Debtor hereby appoints the Administrative
Agent as the attorney-in-fact of such Debtor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Article VI and
taking any action and executing any instruments that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable to accomplish the
purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, so long as the Administrative Agent shall be entitled under this Article VI to make collections in
respect of the Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall have the right and power

 

(a)        to receive,
endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of any Debtor representing any dividend, payment or other distribution
in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same;

 

Exhibit F-1-23

    	 

    	 

    

 

(b)        to file
any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings in connection therewith which the Secured Party may deem to be necessary
or advisable;

 

(c)        to pay,
settle or compromise all bills and claims which may be or become liens or security interests against any or all of the Collateral,
or any part thereof, unless a bond or other security satisfactory to the Secured Party has been provided; and

 

(d)        upon foreclosure,
to do any and every act which any Debtor may do on its behalf with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and to exercise
any or all of such Debtor’s rights and remedies under any or all of the Collateral;

 

provided, however, that the Secured
Party shall not exercise any such rights except upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default. This power of attorney
is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

 

6.06       Expenses.

 

(a)        Subject
to Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent may incur, and Debtors shall pay to the Administrative
Agent, all reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses for legal services) of, or incident
to, the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Article VI, or exercise by experts, agents or attorneys selected
by the Administrative Agent in good faith of any rights or privileges of Debtors in respect of the Collateral, or any actual or
attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral, and for
the care of the Collateral and defending or asserting rights and claims of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties
in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, and all such fees and expenses and, to the extent such amounts are not timely paid,
together with interest thereon at the applicable rate provided for in Section 3.02 of the Credit Agreement, shall be Secured
Obligations of the Administrative Agent secured under Article II. All amounts payable by the Debtors under this Section 6.06(a)
shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days of demand thereof.

 

(b)        The terms,
conditions, covenants and agreements to be observed or performed by each Debtor under this Agreement shall be observed or performed
by it at its sole cost and expense.

 

6.07       Administrative
Agent’s Right to Perform on Debtor’s Behalf. If any Debtor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement,
the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), upon reasonable notice to such Debtor, unless such Debtor is diligently
pursuing a cure for such failure that cannot be obtained more quickly by the Administrative Agent’s performance as specified
herein, itself perform or cause to be performed such obligations at the expense of such Debtor, either in its name or in the name
and on behalf of such Debtor.

 

6.08       Custody and Preservation.
The Administrative Agent’s obligation to use reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral shall be satisfied
if it uses the same care as it uses in the custody and preservation of its own property.

 

Exhibit F-1-24

    	 

    	 

    

 

6.09       Preservation
of Rights. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party shall be required to take any steps to preserve any rights
against prior parties to any of the Collateral.

 

6.10       Rights of Secured
Parties. The Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to) pay or secure payment of any
Tax or other claim that may be secured by or result in a Lien on any Collateral. The Administrative Agent or any other Secured
Party may (but shall not be obligated to) do any other thing that it in good faith believes is necessary or desirable to preserve,
protect or maintain the Collateral or, after an Event of Default, to enhance its value. Debtors shall immediately reimburse the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for any reasonable payment or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees
and expenses) that the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party may incur pursuant to this Section 6.10.

 

6.11       No Marshalling.
Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security
(including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort
to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order.

 

6.12       Remedies Cumulative.
No right, power or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party is intended to be
exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, and every such right, power and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
cumulative and in addition to every other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity
or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder or otherwise shall not prevent the concurrent assertion
or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. Resort to any or all security now or hereafter held by the Administrative
Agent may be taken concurrently or successively and in one or several consolidated or independent judicial actions or lawfully
taken nonjudicial proceedings, or both.

MISCELLANEOUS

 

7.01       Waivers of Rights
Inhibiting Enforcement. Each Debtor waives, for itself and all who may claim under it, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law:

 

(a)        any claim
that, as to any part of the Collateral, a public sale, should the Administrative Agent elect so to proceed, is, in and of itself,
not a commercially reasonable method of sale for the Collateral;

 

(b)        the right
to assert in any action or proceeding between it and the Administrative Agent any offsets or counterclaims that it may have;

 

(c)        except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, NOTICE OR JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TAKING POSSESSION
OR DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL INCLUDING ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR REMEDIES AND
ANY SUCH RIGHT THAT ANY DEBTOR WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OR ANY STATUTE OF THE UNITED STATES OR OF ANY STATE,
AND ALL OTHER REQUIREMENTS AS TO THE TIME, PLACE AND TERMS OF SALE OR OTHER REQUIREMENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S RIGHTS HEREUNDER;

 

(d)        all rights
of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium; and

 

Exhibit F-1-25

    	 

    	 

    

 

(e)        the right
to invoke any law requiring marshalling of collateral and all other rights the exercise of which would, directly or indirectly,
prevent, delay or inhibit the enforcement of any of the rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties
under this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral, now or hereafter in force under any applicable law.

The Administrative Agent or any Debtor shall give any notice, request, demand or other communication (a “Notice”)
pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.01 of the Credit Agreement. Any Notice to the Debtor shall be sent to
the address of the Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement or to such other address provided by such Debtor to the Administrative
Agent in writing. Any Notice sent as hereinabove provided shall be deemed delivered upon receipt or refusal of delivery.

by merger, consolidation, dissolution, operation of law or any other manner) except with the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent, which consent may be withheld in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. Any purported assignment without such
consent is void. When any Lender assigns or otherwise transfers any interest held by it under the Credit Agreement or other Loan
Document to any other Person pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement or such other Loan Document, that other Person shall
thereupon become vested with all the benefits held by such Lender under this Agreement.

Waiver. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor consent to any departure by any Debtor therefrom, shall
in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the
other Debtors; provided that any amendment, waiver, or consent shall be signed by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders
to the extent required by Section 12.02 of the Credit Agreement. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

7.06       No Implied Waiver.
No failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege or requiring the satisfaction of any condition hereunder, and no
course of dealing between the Debtors and the Administrative Agent operates as a waiver or estoppel of any right, remedy or condition.
No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement precludes any simultaneous or subsequent exercise of
any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement are not exclusive of, but are cumulative
to, any rights or remedies now or subsequently existing at law, in equity or by statute.

 

7.07       Severability.

impaired thereby.

 

7.08       Entire Agreement.

of dealing. In entering into this Agreement, the Debtors have not relied upon any statement, representation, warranty or agreement
of the Administrative Agent except as set forth in the Loan Documents.

 

7.09       Execution in
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.

 

7.10       Governing Law.
The laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to its conflicts of law principles) govern all matters arising out of
or relating to this Agreement and all of the transactions it contemplates, including without limitation its validity, interpretation,
construction, performance (including the details of performance) and enforcement, except to the extent that the validity or perfection
of the security interests hereunder, or remedies hereunder, in respect of any particular Collateral are governed by the laws of
a jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

 

7.11       Headings.

Liability. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OTHER SECURED PARTY SHALL HAVE LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO, AND DEBTORS HEREBY
WAIVE, RELEASE AND AGREE NOT TO SUE FOR:

 

(a)        ANY LOSS
OR DAMAGE SUSTAINED BY ANY DEBTOR, OR ANY LOSS, DAMAGE, DEPRECIATION OR OTHER DIMINUTION IN THE VALUE OF ANY COLLATERAL, THAT MAY
OCCUR AS A RESULT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR THAT IS IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, ANY EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
EXCEPT FOR ANY SUCH LOSS, DAMAGE, DEPRECIATION OR DIMINUTION TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SAME IS THE RESULT OF ACTS OR OMISSIONS ON
THE PART OF SUCH SECURED PARTY CONSTITUTING WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE (AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT
JURISDICTION); OR

 

(b)        ANY SPECIAL,
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES SUFFERED BY ANY DEBTOR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIM RELATED
TO THIS AGREEMENT.

 

7.17       Subrogation.
Each Debtor shall not exercise, and hereby irrevocably waives, any claim, right or remedy that it may now have or may hereafter
acquire against any other Debtor arising under or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any claim,
right or remedy of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification or participation arising under contract,
by applicable law or otherwise in any claim, right or remedy of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties against such
Debtor or any other Person or any Collateral which the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may now have or may hereafter
acquire, until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all Secured Obligations and the expiration and termination
of the Commitments. If, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any amount shall be paid to any Debtor on account of such subrogation
rights at any time when any of the Secured Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Debtor
in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Debtor and be turned over
to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Debtor (duly endorsed by such Debtor to the Administrative
Agent, if required), to be applied against the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the Loan Documents.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors shall be expressly permitted hereunder to make payments to each other to the extent
not prohibited by the Credit Agreement.

any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any power, right
or remedy provided for or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the Secured
Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among
them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and Debtors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting
as the Administrative Agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and Debtors
shall be under no obligation or entitlement to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

 

7.19       Inconsistencies
with Credit Agreement. To the extent there are any conflicts or inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Credit Agreement,
the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall control.

Agreement and supersedes the Prior Security Agreement in its entirety. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that all liens,
security interests and assignments created and granted under the Prior Agreement and encumbering the Collateral shall continue
to exist, remain valid and subsisting, shall not be impaired, extinguished or released hereby, shall remain in full force and effect
and are hereby ratified, renewed, brought forward, extended and rearranged as security for the Secured Obligations.

FORM OF GUARANTY

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED GUARANTY AGREEMENT

 

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED
GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Guaranty”) dated as of December 13, 2013, made by each of the undersigned Subsidiaries
of the Borrower (as defined below) (each, a “Guarantor,” and collectively, the “Guarantors”),
in favor of Bank of Montreal as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”) for the benefit of the Lenders and the other
Secured Parties (as such terms are hereinafter defined) pursuant to that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated
as of even date herewith (as amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”),
by and among Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Agent and the
lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”).

 

W I T N E
S S E T H

 

WHEREAS,
pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to make loans to and other extensions of credit on behalf
of the Borrower in a manner and upon the terms and conditions set forth therein;

 

WHEREAS, in accordance
with the Credit Agreement, the Agent requires that the Guarantors execute a guaranty agreement guaranteeing the Obligations of
the Borrower under the Credit Agreement;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and agreements herein and in order to induce the Lenders and the Agent to enter into the Credit Agreement
and to induce the Secured Parties to make loans and/or extend other credit to the Borrower, the Guarantors hereby agree as follows:

 

Section 1.       Definitions.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement.
As used herein, the capitalized term “Secured Parties” shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the Security Agreement.

 

Exhibit F-2-1

    	 

    	 

    

  

Section 2.       Guaranty
of Payment. Each Guarantor (not merely as a surety or guarantor of collection) hereby jointly, severally, unconditionally
and irrevocably, guarantees the punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, as an installment, by prepayment
or by demand, acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrower heretofore or hereafter existing. If any or all of
the Obligations become due and payable under the Credit Agreement, the Guarantors jointly and severally and unconditionally promise
to pay such Obligations, on demand, together with any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), which
may be incurred by the Agent in collecting any of the Obligations and in connection with the protection, defense and enforcement
of any rights under the Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Document (the “Expenses”). The Guarantors guarantee
that the Obligations shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The Obligations include, without
limitation, interest accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws of any jurisdiction
at the rate or rates provided in the Credit Agreement. The Agent shall not be required to exhaust any right or remedy or take any
action against the Borrower or any other person or entity or any collateral prior to any demand or other action hereunder against
the Guarantors. The Guarantors agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Agent, the Obligations may be declared to be due and
payable for the purposes of this Guaranty notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or
vitiate any declaration as regards the Borrower and that in the event of a declaration or attempted declaration, the Obligations
shall immediately become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this Guaranty and each
Guarantor shall forthwith pay the Obligations specified by the Agent to be paid as provided in the Credit Agreement without further
notice or demand. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in the Credit Agreement, any Loan
Document or any other document or any other agreement, security document or instrument relating hereto or thereto to the contrary,
the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall never exceed the maximum amount that said Guarantor could pay without having
such payment set aside as a fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance or similar action under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or applicable
state or foreign law. 

 

Section 3.       Guaranty
Absolute. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty is absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (a) any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, the Credit Agreement or the Obligations, or any other
amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any of the terms of the Credit Agreement or the Obligations, including
any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon; (b) any release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure
from, any other guarantee or support document, or any exchange, release or non-perfection of
any collateral, for the Credit Agreement or the Obligations; (c) any present or future law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction
or of any agency thereof purporting to reduce, amend, restructure or otherwise affect any term of the Credit Agreement or the Obligations;
(d) without being limited by the foregoing, any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or the Obligations;
(e) any other setoff, defense or counterclaim whatsoever (in any case, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory)
with respect to the Credit Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby which might constitute a legal or equitable defense
available to, or discharge of, the Borrower or other Guarantors and (f) any claim or assertion that any payment by any Guarantor
hereunder should be set aside pursuant to Section 2 in connection with any stay, injunction or other prohibition or event,
in which case each Guarantor shall be unconditionally required to pay all amounts demanded of it hereunder
prior to any determination of the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder in accordance with Section 2 and the recipient
of such payment, if so required by a final non-appealable court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment,
shall then be liable for the refund of any excess amounts. If any such rebate or refund is ever required, all other Guarantors
shall be fully liable for the repayment thereof to the maximum extent allowed by applicable law.

 

Section 4.       Guaranty
Irrevocable. This Guaranty is a continuing guarantee of the payment of all Obligations now or hereafter existing under
the Credit Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all Obligations and other amounts payable
under this Guaranty and until all Commitments of the Lenders to make Loans under the Credit Agreement shall be terminated in accordance
with the terms thereof and all of the Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated and are no longer in effect.

 

Exhibit F-2-2

    	 

    	 

    

 

Section 5.       Reinstatement.
This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be automatically reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Agent on the insolvency,
bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any of the Borrower, any Guarantor, or any Person that is a party to
the Loan Documents, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers
with respect to any of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person that is a party to the Loan Documents, or otherwise, all
as though the payment had not been made.

 

Section 6.       Subrogation.
Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it shall not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation, by any payment made
under this Guaranty or otherwise, until all the Obligations have been paid in full and all of
the Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated and are no longer in effect. Any amounts paid to a Guarantor on
account of subrogation rights under this Guaranty at any time when all the Obligations have not been paid in full, shall be held
in trust for the benefit of the Agent and shall promptly be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether
matured or unmatured or absolute or contingent, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. If a Guarantor has made a
payment to the Agent hereunder of all or any part of the Obligations and all the Obligations are paid in full and all of the Commitments
under the Credit Agreement have been terminated and are no longer in effect, the Agent shall, at such Guarantor’s request,
execute and deliver to the Guarantor the appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary
to evidence the transfer by subrogation to the Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from the payment.

 

Section 7.       Subordination.
Any liabilities owed by the Borrower to the Guarantors in connection with any extension of credit or financial accommodation by
the Guarantors to or for the account of the Borrower, including but not limited to interest accruing at the agreed contract rate
after the commencement of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, are hereby subordinated to the
Obligations, and such liabilities of the Borrower to the Guarantors, if the Agent so requests, shall be collected, enforced and
received by the Guarantors as trustee for the Agent and shall be paid over to the Agent on account of the Obligations.

 

Section 8.       Certain
Taxes. The Guarantors further agree that all payments to be made hereunder shall be made without setoff or counterclaim
and free and clear of, and without deduction for Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the
Agent hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Agent shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Agent (after payment
of all Taxes) the amounts payable hereunder in the full amounts so to be paid. Whenever any Tax is paid by a Guarantor, as promptly
as possible thereafter, such Guarantor shall send the Agent evidence of payment thereof, together with such additional documentary
evidence as may be required from time to time by the Agent.

 

Section 9.       Representations
and Warranties. Each of the Guarantors represents and warrants that: (a) this Guaranty (i) has been authorized
by all necessary action; (ii) does not violate any agreement, instrument, law, regulation or order applicable to it; (iii) does
not require the consent or approval of any Person, or any filing or registration of any kind; and (iv) is the legal, valid
and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with
its terms, except to the extent that enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency

Exhibit F-2-3

    	 

    	 

    

  

Section 10.       Remedies
Generally. The remedies provided in this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

 

Section 11.      Setoff.
Each Guarantor agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim
the Agent or the Secured Parties may otherwise have, the Agent and each of the Secured Parties
shall be entitled, at their option, to offset balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by them
for the accounts of the Guarantors at any of the Agent’s or any Secured Party’s offices, in U.S. dollars or in any
other currency, against any amount payable by the Guarantors under this Guaranty which is not paid when due, in which case it shall
promptly notify the Guarantors thereof; provided that the Agent’s or any Secured Party’s failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

 

Section 12.      Formalities.
Each Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect
to any of the Obligations, the Credit Agreement and this Guaranty and any liability to which the Credit Agreement and this Guaranty
applies or may apply, and waives presentment, demand of payment, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice
of dishonor or nonpayment, and any requirement that the Agent institute suit, collection proceedings or take any other action to
collect the Obligations, including any requirement that the Agent protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien
against any Property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Borrower or any other Person (including
the other Guarantors) or any Collateral (it being the intention of the Agent and each Guarantor that the obligations of such Guarantor
under this Guaranty are to be a guarantee of payment and not of collection) or that the Borrower or any other Person (including
the other Guarantors) be joined in any action hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby waives marshaling
of assets and liabilities, notice by the Agent of the creation of any Indebtedness or liability to which it applies or may apply,
any amounts received by the Agent, notice of disposition or substitution of Collateral and of the creation, advancement, increase,
existence, extension, renewal, rearrangement and/or modification of the Obligations.

 

Section 13.       Amendments
and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor consent to any release by any Guarantor therefrom,
shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Agent and such Guarantor, and then the waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure
on the part of the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver or preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

 

Section 14.       Expenses.
The Guarantors shall reimburse the Agent on demand for all Expenses without duplication of any
reimbursements affected under the Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section shall survive the termination
of this Guaranty.

 

Exhibit F-2-4

    	 

    	 

    

 

Section 15.      Assignment.
This Guaranty shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of the Guarantors, the Agent
and their respective successors and assigns; provided that the Guarantors may not assign or transfer their respective rights
or obligations under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (a) the obligations of the Guarantors under
this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect and shall be binding on any successor partnership and on previous partners
and their respective estates if any of the Guarantors is a partnership, regardless of any change in the partnership as a result
of death, retirement or otherwise; and (b) the Agent may assign, or otherwise transfer its rights under the Credit Agreement to
any other person or entity in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and the other person or entity shall then become
vested with all the rights granted to the Agent in this Guaranty or otherwise. Guarantor may merge into the Borrower or another
Restricted Subsidiary as provided in the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 16.      Captions.
The headings and captions in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall not affect the
interpretation or construction of this Guaranty.

 

Section 17.     Governing
Law, Etc. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH
GUARANTOR CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF THE SUPREME COURT 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. SERVICE OF PROCESS BY THE AGENT IN CONNECTION
WITH ANY SUCH DISPUTE SHALL BE BINDING ON EACH GUARANTOR IF SENT TO SUCH GUARANTOR BY REGISTERED MAIL AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH
IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT FOR THE BORROWER OR AS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED BY SUCH GUARANTOR FROM TIME TO TIME. EACH GUARANTOR WAIVES ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION RELATED TO THIS GUARANTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. TO THE EXTENT THAT
ANY GUARANTOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER FROM
SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OF A JUDGMENT, EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE), EACH SUCH
GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS GUARANTY.

 

Section 18.      Integration;
Effectiveness. This Guaranty alone sets forth the entire understanding of the Guarantors and the Agent relating to the
guarantee of the Obligations and constitutes the entire contract between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Guaranty
shall become effective when it shall have been executed and delivered by the Guarantors to the Agent. Delivery of an executed signature
page of this Guaranty by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed signature page of this Guaranty.

 

Section 19.      Additional
Guarantors. Upon the execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement by any Subsidiary that is required to be a Guarantor
pursuant to Section 8.16 of the Credit Agreement, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Guarantor” for all purposes hereunder
with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement
shall not require the consent of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor shall remain
in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor as a party to this Guaranty.

 

Exhibit F-2-5

    	 

    	 

    

  

Section 20.     Keepwell.
Each Qualified ECP Guarantor (as hereinafter defined) 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 Guarantee in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only
be liable under this Section 20 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its
obligations under this Section, or otherwise under this Guarantee, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance
or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount).  The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section
20 shall remain in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with the terms hereof.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor
intends that this Section 20 constitute, and this Section 20 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.  As used in this Section 20, the term “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect
of any Swap Obligation, each Loan Party that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant Guarantee becomes
effective with respect to such Swap Obligation or such other Person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant”
under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an “eligible
contract participant” at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

 

Section 21.      Joinder
of Borrower. By its execution hereof, the Borrower hereby joins this Guaranty for the sole purpose of agreeing to Section
20 hereof.

 

Section 22.     Amendment
and Restatement. This Guaranty is an amendment and restatement of, and not a novation or extinguishment of, those certain
Amended and Restated Guaranty Agreements by certain of the Guarantors in favor of the Administrative Agent executed in connection
with the Prior Agreement (as amended, supplemented, and otherwise modified, collectively, the “Prior Guaranty”)
and supersedes the Prior Guaranty in its entirety. Each Guarantor hereby ratifies and confirms all of its obligations under the
Prior Guaranty and agrees that the Prior Guaranty, as amended and restated by this Guaranty, continues in full force and effect.

	F.
	The 1979 Lease and the 1989 Lease expire by their terms on March 1, 2015. Landlord and Tenant desire now to amend both leases to extend their terms, on the following terms and conditions.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals which by this reference are incorporated herein, the mutual covenants and conditions contained herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

AMENDMENT

		
	1.
	Term Extension.  The terms of the 1979 Lease and the 1989 Lease are hereby extended for a period of five (5) years (the “Extended Term”), commencing March, 1, 2015 and terminating February 28, 2020, unless sooner terminated in accordance with their respective terms. Throughout the Extended Term, the Leased Premises shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Mikron Lease, except as expressly modified by this Amendment.

		
	2.
	Extended Term Rent. The fixed monthly rental charge (the “Monthly Rent”) due under the 1979 Lease and the 1989 Lease respectively, during the Extended Term shall be as follows:

The 1979 Lease consisting of 97,706 square feet will be $41,803.14 for the entire five year term. The 1989 Lease consisting of 75,000 square feet will be $27,240.97 for the entire five year term.

3.    Renewal.
3.1   Provided there is no existing uncured material default of Tenant under any of the Mikron Leases, if Tenant desires to continue leasing all of the premises leased under the Mikron Leases (or all of the premises leased under those Mikron Leases which are then in effect) for a period beyond the Extended Term (such period being the “Renewal Term”), Tenant shall give Landlord written notice on or before February 28, 2019 of its desire to negotiate a Renewal Term.  In response to such notice, Landlord shall within twenty (20) days provide Tenant with notice of landlord’s desired term and Monthly Rent for the Renewal Term; provided that the Monthly Rent for Renewal Term (i) shall be the fair market rental value of the Leased Premises upon commencement of the Renewal Term, (ii) shall in no event be less than the Monthly Rent due during the month immediately prior to the commencement of the Renewal Term and (iii) shall in no event escalate more than fifteen percent (15%) during any five consecutive years of the Renewal Term.  In determining the fair market rental value of the Leased Premises, consideration shall be given to the then current market rate for similar properties in the general vicinity of the Leased Premises with similar lease provisions.
3.2   If the parties do not agree upon the monthly Rent for the Leased Premises during the Renewal Term by June 15, 2019 (the “Trigger Date”), either party may demand that the Monthly Rent be determined by arbitration. In such case, the parties shall endeavor to select a mutually agreeable arbitrator within ten (10) days after such demand. If the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within such 10-day period, either party may seek appointment of an arbitrator by the Chief Judge of the Superior Court of King County, Washington. Within fourteen (14) days after the arbitrator’s appointment, each party shall submit its estimate of the fair market rental value of the Leased Premises along with any documentary evidence that it may have to support its estimate. Within fourteen (14) days after the arbitrator’s receipt of each party’s estimate  and evidence (if any), the arbitrator shall select the estimate that he or she determines is closest to the actual fair market rental value of the Leased Premises. The arbitrator’s determination of the estimate that is closest to the actual fair market value of the Leased Premises shall be completed no later than September 15, 2019 and shall be final and binding. The cost of the arbitrator shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant.  In no event shall the fair market rent for the Leased Premises be less than the Monthly Rent due during the last month prior to the Renewal Term.
3.3   If the parties have not executed a fully integrated written agreement for lease of the Leased Premises during the Renewal Term on or before September 15, 2019, then Landlord shall be entitled to freely market the Leased Premises and show the Leased Premises to prospective tenants. Landlord agrees not to market the Leased Premises before this time unless Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant does not intend to pursue the Renewal Term.

4.    Improvements to the Leased Premises. Tenant accepts the Leased Premises in its present condition on an “as-is, where-is” basis.

5.    Miscellaneous.

5.1   This Amendment sets forth the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the matters set forth herein. There have been no additional oral or written representations or agreements.
5.2    Except as herein modified or amended, the provisions, conditions, and terms of the Mikron Leases shall remain in full force and effect.
5.3    In the case of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Mikron Leases and this Amendment, the provisions of the Amendment shall govern and control.
5.4    This Amendment shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington.

6.    Surrender.
