Exposure (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) of the Swap Agreements of such Participating Partnership shall not be less than 2.50 to 1.0 as of each Calculation Date (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement). 

Section 2.6 Certain Notices; Consent to Disclosure. (a) Each Hedge Provider agrees that it shall deliver to the
Collateral Agent: (i) at the same time it makes delivery to the Master General Partner, a copy of any (x) Notice of Triggering Event and (y) Notice of Potential Event of Default, in each case, that it delivers to the Master General
Partner, and (ii) at the same time it makes delivery to any other Person, a copy of any notice of the commencement of any judicial proceeding and a copy of any other notice with respect to the exercise of any rights with respect to any of the
Hedge Obligations. No failure by a party hereto to furnish a copy under this Section 2.6(a) shall provide any rights or defenses to the relevant Participating Partnership or the Master General Partner with respect to any of the Hedge
Obligations or the Secured Obligations, limit or affect any obligation of the relevant Participating Partnership or the Master General Partner with respect to any of the Approved Master Agreements or the Secured Obligations, or otherwise limit or
affect the rights and obligations of the Hedge Providers under the Approved Master Agreements. 
 (b) Each Participating
Partnership hereby agrees to provide the Collateral Agent, promptly upon the execution thereof, a copy of each Approved Master Agreement entered into by such Participating Partnership and a Hedge Provider and (excluding any confirmations) written
notice of any amendment to any Approved Master Agreement (excluding amendments to any confirmations), including with such notice a copy of the amendment (provided that this Section 2.6(b) is not meant to permit any Hedge Provider
or any Participating Partnership to enter into any such amendments in contravention of the terms of this Agreement). 
 (c) The
Master General Partner and each Participating Partnership hereby consent to Hedge Providers’ disclosure to each other and to the Collateral Agent of any confidential information relating to the Master General Partner or any Participating
Partnership that has been provided to any Hedge Provider by or for the benefit of any Participating Partnership in connection with any Hedging Facility Documents, notwithstanding any confidentiality agreement between the Master General Partner or
any Participating Partnership and any Hedge Provider that might otherwise limit or prohibit such disclosure; provided that the recipient of such disclosure shall treat such disclosed information as confidential information subject to such
recipient’s confidentiality obligations to the Master General Partner or any Participating Partnership, or if such recipient has no confidentiality obligations to the Master General Partner or any Participating Partnership, such recipient shall
keep such information confidential to the same degree and in the same manner as it keeps its own confidential information.

 Article III 
 Collateral 
 Section 3.1 Acknowledgment of Participating
Partnership Liens. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, pursuant to the Security Documents, each Participating Partnership has severally granted to the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent has accepted and agreed to hold, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, all of each Participating Partnership’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral, to secure the payment and performance of such Participating Partnerships Obligations. Subject to
Section 10.18, the Participating Partnership Liens shall terminate on the Discharge Date. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Collateral Agent will hold and distribute the Collateral as set forth herein. 

Section 3.2 Separate Liens. The Security Documents create separate and distinct Liens over the Collateral of each
Participating Partnership. Each Participating Partnership Lien shall only secure the payment and performance of the Participating Partnership Obligations of the Participating Partnership granting such Liens. The Collateral of one Participating
Partnership shall not secure the Participating Partnership Obligations of another Participating Partnership. 
 Section 3.3
Additional Liens. Each Hedge Provider agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, it will not seek or accept credit support for any Hedge Obligation (other than the benefit of the security interest granted to the
Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Security Documents); provided, however, to the extent that any Hedge Provider hereafter obtains any Lien on any assets of any Participating Partnership (other than
the Liens granted to Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Security Documents) to secure all or any portion of the Hedge Obligations, such Lien (i) shall be subject to this Agreement in the same manner as the
Liens held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Security Documents, (ii) shall secure the Secured Obligations ratably in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) as between the
Collateral Agent and such Hedge Provider, shall be of equal priority with the Liens held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, notwithstanding (A) the date, manner or order of any grant, attachment or perfection of any such Lien, (B) any
provision of the UCC, other applicable law or the Hedging Facility Documents or (C) any manner of enforcement of any Lien or other rights, and upon request by Collateral Agent, such Liens shall be assigned to Collateral Agent to be held for the
ratable benefit of the Secured Parties. 
 Section 3.4 Proceeds Prior to Discharge Date. Each Hedge Provider hereby
agrees that if it obtains possession of any Collateral, realizes any proceeds or payment in respect of any such Collateral, or obtains any payment, proceeds or recovery from any Obligor whether pursuant to any Security Documents, by the exercise of
any rights available to it under applicable law, in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or through any other exercise of remedies (including any rights of setoff), at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, then it shall hold
such Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the other Secured Parties and promptly transfer such Collateral, proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Collateral Agent, to be distributed by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.9. 
 Section 3.5 Separate and Independent Obligations; Enforcement. The amounts
payable by the Master General Partner or any Participating Partnership to any Secured Party at any time under any of the Approved Master Agreements to which such Secured Party is a party shall be separate and independent obligations, and each
Secured Party shall be entitled to enforce any right arising out of the applicable Approved Master Agreement to which it is a party, subject to the terms thereof and of this Agreement. Each Hedge Provider hereby agrees that, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary that may be set forth in any Security Document, no Hedge Provider, other than the Collateral Agent, in its capacity 

  
 18 

 
as such and as the holder of the Liens for the benefit of the Secured Parties under the Security Documents, shall have any right individually to realize upon any Liens granted under the Security
Documents or take action against the Collateral, it being understood and agreed that such remedies may be exercised only by the Collateral Agent under the Security Documents for the benefit of the Secured Parties. 

Section 3.6 Contesting Liens. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or
support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any insolvency or liquidation proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in all
or any part of the Collateral; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of Collateral Agent or any Hedge Provider to enforce this Agreement. 

Section 3.7 Enforceability of Hedge Obligations. Each Hedge Provider agrees that (i) it will not challenge or question
in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any of the Secured Obligations or any Security Document or the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien under any Security Document or the validity or enforceability of the
priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement, (ii) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or intent of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by
judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents, (iii) it will not institute any suit nor will
it assert in any suit, bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding any claim against the Collateral Agent seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with respect to any Collateral, and the
Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent with respect to any Collateral so long as such action is or was taken or omitted to be taken in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
and the Security Documents, (iv) it will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have any Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of such Collateral and (v) it will not attempt, directly or
indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Collateral Agent
or any Hedge Provider to enforce this Agreement. 
 Section 3.8 No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Collateral
Agent or any Hedge Provider to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, power or privilege, under any of the
Hedging Facility Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any of the Hedging Facility Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Hedging Facility Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any Security Document or consent to any departure therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 10.1, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, entering into transactions under any Approved Master Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any Triggering Event or Potential Event of
Default, regardless of whether Collateral Agent or any Hedge Provider may have had notice or knowledge of such Triggering Event or Potential Event of Default at the time. 

  
 19 

 Section 3.9 Application of Proceeds. (a) The Collateral Agent will apply
and any payment, proceeds or recovery from any Obligor, including the proceeds of any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral, in the following order of application: 

FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection
with such sale, collection or realization or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or any of the Secured Obligations, and to any other Collateral Agent obligations, including all court costs and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents
and legal counsel, the repayment of all and any other reasonable and documented costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder; 

SECOND, (i) with respect to proceeds from Collateral of a Participating Partnership or a recovery from a
Participating Partnership, ratably to the Hedge Providers that have Approved Master Agreements with such Participating Partnership, to pay all Hedge Obligations then owing to such Hedge Providers in respect of the Hedge Transactions pursuant to such
Approved Master Agreements as determined pursuant to Section 3.9(b) and (ii) with respect to any recovery from the Master General Partner to the extent not constituting Collateral or the Property of any Participating Partnership,
ratably to all Hedge Providers, to pay all Hedge Obligations then owing to the Hedge Providers as determined pursuant to Section 3.9(b); and 
 THIRD, any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the Master General Partner, the Participating Partnerships or their successors or assigns or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same
or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 
 For purposes of this Section 3.9(a), “proceeds” of
Collateral includes any and all cash, securities and other property realized from collection, foreclosure or enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s Liens upon the Collateral (including distributions of Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured
Obligations). 
 (b) Upon receipt of any proceeds from enforcement to be distributed pursuant to the preceding
subsection (a), the Collateral Agent shall give Hedge Providers notice thereof, and each Hedge Provider shall within three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof notify the Collateral Agent of the amount of Hedge Obligations owing to it
as of the date of such notice from the Collateral Agent. Such notification shall state the amount of its Hedge Obligations and how much is then due and owing. If requested by the Collateral Agent, each Hedge Provider shall demonstrate that the
amounts set forth in its notice are actually owing to such Hedge Provider to the reasonable satisfaction of the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on information in such notices without
investigation. Collateral Agent shall use such amounts to determine each Hedge Provider’s ratable share. 
 (c) Except as
provided in Section 3.4, nothing in this Agreement shall impair the right of any Hedge Provider to exercise its rights of set-off, offset or netting, if any, under the Approved Master Agreements with respect to payment obligations owing
to and by any Participating Partnership, provided that no Hedge Provider shall have any obligation to set-off, offset or net any payment obligations owing to and by any other Hedge Provider. 

Article IV 

Master General Partner 
 Section 4.1 Master General Partner Liability. 
 (a) The Master General
Partner shall be responsible for all Participating Partnerships Obligations and shall be liable in respect of all Hedge Transactions entered into by any Participating Partnership with any Hedge Provider. The liability of the Master General Partner
for each Hedge Transaction shall be, primary and not secondary, and joint and several with respect to each Participating Partnership that is a party to such Hedge Transaction. 

  
 20 

 (b) The Master General Partner acknowledges and agrees that the obligations undertaken by it
under this Agreement involve the guarantee for obligations of Persons other than the Master General Partner and that such guarantee is absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances. In full recognition and furtherance of
the foregoing, the Master General Partner understands and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, that it shall remain obligated hereunder and the enforceability and effectiveness of this Agreement and the liability of the
Master General Partner, and the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties under this Agreement and the other Hedging Facility Documents shall not be affected, limited, reduced, discharged or
terminated in any way as a result of: (i) the Secured Obligations, the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, being from time to time,
in whole or in part, renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by, or any indulgence or forbearance in respect thereof granted by, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party; (ii) this
Agreement and any other Hedging Facility Documents being amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, (iii) any Obligor or any other Person from time to time accepting or entering into new or additional agreements,
security documents, guarantees or other instruments in addition to, in exchange for or relative to, any Hedging Facility Document, all or any part of the Secured Obligations or any collateral now or in the future serving as security for the Secured
Obligations, (iv) any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Secured Obligations being sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released, or
(v) any other event shall occur which constitutes a defense or release of sureties generally, except for indefeasible payment in full of the Secured Obligations. 
 (c) The Master General Partner hereby expressly waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any defense now or in the future arising by reason of, (i) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability
of this Agreement, any other Hedging Facility Document, any of the Secured Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Collateral Agent or
any other Secured Party, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Obligor or any other Person against the Collateral Agent or any
other Secured Party, (iii) the insolvency, bankruptcy arrangement, reorganization, adjustment, composition, liquidation, disability, dissolution or lack of power of any Obligor or any other Person at any time liable for the payment of all or
part of the Secured Obligations or the failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to file or enforce a claim in bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person; (iv) any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the
assets of any Obligor, (v) the fact that any Collateral or Lien contemplated or intended to be given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the Secured Obligations shall not be properly perfected or created, or shall prove to be
unenforceable or subordinate to any other Lien, (vi) any failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to marshal assets in favor of any Obligor or any other Person, to exhaust any collateral for all or any part of the Secured
Obligations, to pursue or exhaust any right, remedy, power or privilege it may have against any Obligor or any other Person or to take any action whatsoever to mitigate or reduce the Master General Partner’s liability under this Agreement or
any other Hedging Facility Agreement, (vii) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s
or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation, or which might be available to a surety or guarantor, in bankruptcy or in any other instance, (viii) diligence and demand of payment, presentment, protest, dishonor and
notice of dishonor, and (ix) any statute of limitations affecting the Master General Partner’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. 
 (d) When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Master General Partner, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party

  
 21 

 
may, but shall be under no obligation to, join or make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue or exhaust such rights and remedies as it may have against any other Obligor or any other Person or
against any collateral security or guarantee for the Secured Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies
or to collect any payments from such Obligor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of such Obligor or any other Person or any such collateral
security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Master General Partner of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against the Master General Partner. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 

Section 4.2 Subordination of Operator’s Lien. 
 (a) Any and all Liens on any Collateral now existing or hereafter created or arising in favor of the Master General Partner in its capacity as operator of record of the Oil and Gas Properties and the
Hydrocarbon Interests of the Participating Partnerships (the “Operator”) or otherwise (including, without limitation, any operator’s liens, mineral contractors liens, mechanics and materialmen’s liens or any other similar
liens) securing any obligations of any Participating Partnership owing or to be owing to the Master General Partner, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising (the
“Subordinate Obligations”), regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, are expressly junior in priority, operation and effect to any and all Liens on any Collateral now
existing or hereafter created or arising in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, securing any of the Secured Obligations, notwithstanding (i) anything to the contrary contained in any agreement or filing to
which the Master General Partner may now or hereafter be a party, and regardless of the time, order or method of grant, attachment, recording or perfection of any financing statements or other security interests, assignments, pledges, deeds,
mortgages and other liens, charges or encumbrances or any defect or deficiency or alleged defect or deficiency in any of the foregoing, (ii) any provision of the UCC or any applicable law or any mortgage or other security instrument or any
other document or agreement pursuant to which a Lien is granted in favor of the Master General Partner or any other circumstance whatsoever and (iii) the fact that any such Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent securing any of the Secured
Obligations are (x) subordinated to any Lien securing any Subordinate Obligations or (y) otherwise subordinated, voided, avoided, invalidated or lapsed. 
 (b) Until the Discharge Date has occurred, whether or not an insolvency proceeding has been commenced by or against the Master General Partner or any Participating Partnership, the Collateral Agent shall
have the exclusive right to take and continue any enforcement action with respect to the Collateral (including, without limitation, the enforcement or foreclosure of any Lien on the Collateral), without any consultation with or consent of the
Operator or any other Person. 
 (c) The Master General Partner shall not object to or contest, or support any other Person in
contesting or objecting to, in any proceeding (including without limitation, any insolvency proceeding), the validity, extent, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Lien in the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent to secure any of the
Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding any failure by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to perfect its Liens in any Collateral or any avoidance, invalidation or subordination by any third party or court of competent jurisdiction of the
security interests in any Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, the priority and rights as between the Collateral Agent and the Master General Partner with respect to the Collateral shall be as set forth herein. In the
event that the Master General Partner becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of the Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all
purposes to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Subordinate Obligations are subject to the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 22 

 (d) The Master General Partner acknowledges that a portion of the Secured Obligations
represents Hedge Obligations and that the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced, and that the terms of the Secured Obligations may be modified, extended or amended from time to time, and
that the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations may be increased, or replaced, in each event, without notice to or consent by the Master General Partner and without affecting the provisions hereof. The lien priorities provided in this
Section 4.2 shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension, repayment, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement of either the Secured Obligations or the Subordinate Obligations,
or any portion thereof. 
 (e) Should the Master General Partner, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to or
threaten to take any action with respect to the Collateral, or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, the Collateral Agent (in its own name or otherwise) may obtain relief against the Master General Partner by injunction, specific
performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Master General Partner that (i) the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to
ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) the Master General Partner waives any defense that the Collateral Agent and or any Secured Party cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages. If the Master General Partner
realizes any proceeds or payment in respect of any such Collateral, whether by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any insolvency or liquidation proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies, at any time
prior to the Discharge Date, then it shall hold such Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the Collateral Agent and promptly transfer such Collateral, proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Collateral Agent, to be distributed by the
Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.9. 
 Section 4.3 Application of
Collateral. Upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Master General Partner shall, at the instruction of the Collateral Agent, promptly transfer to the Collateral Agent any Collateral (including proceeds thereof) in the
possession or control of the Master General Partner to be applied and distributed by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.9. 
 Section 4.4 Subrogation. The Master General Partner will be subrogated to all rights of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against any Participating Partnership in respect of
amounts paid by the Master General Partner, but it shall not enforce or be entitled to receive any payments arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation until the earlier to occur of (a) the Discharge Date or (b) the withdrawal
of such Participating Partnership in accordance with Section 10.18. If any amount is paid to the Master General Partner by such Participating Partnership on account of subrogation rights prior to such date, the Master General Partner
shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties and shall promptly pay such amount to the Collateral Agent. 
 Article V 
 Representations and Warranties 

Section 5.1 Representations and Warranties of each Obligor. To induce the Collateral Agent and the Hedge Providers to enter
into this Agreement and to enter into Hedge Transactions, each Obligor represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and each Hedge Provider that, as of the date hereof, the Effective Date, each date that a Hedge Transaction is executed by it, and
each date Collateral is delivered or granted to the Collateral Agent: 
 (a) Organization; Powers. Such Obligor 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
Properties 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. 

  
 23 

 (b) Authority; Enforceability. The performance under the Hedging Facility Documents
to which such Obligor is a party are within such Obligor’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary partnership, corporate and, if required, member action. Each Hedging Facility Document to which such Obligor is a party
has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor, as applicable, 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 
 (c) Approvals; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of any Hedging Facility Document by such Obligor (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing
with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority or any other Person, nor is any such consent, approval, registration, filing or other action necessary for the validity or enforceability of any Hedging Facility 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 any Security Documents, including any financing statements, contemplated thereunder,
and (ii) those third party approvals or consents which, if not made or obtained, would not cause a Default hereunder and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate any Law or the Organizational
Documents of any Obligor, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon such Obligor or its Properties, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by such
Obligor and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Property of such Obligor (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents. 
 (d) Compliance with Laws; No Default. 
 (i) Such Obligor
(A) is in compliance with all Laws, including all Environmental Laws, applicable to it or its Property and all agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its Property, and (B) 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 in each case where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (ii) Such Obligor is not in default and no event or
circumstance has 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 such Obligor 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 such Obligor or any of its Properties is bound. 
 Section 5.2 Representations and Warranties of each Participating Partnership. To induce the Collateral Agent and the Hedge Providers to enter into this Agreement and to enter into Hedge

  
 24 

 
Transactions, each Participating Partnership represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and each Hedge Provider that, as of the date hereof, the Effective Date, each date that a Hedge
Transaction is executed by it, and each date Collateral is delivered or granted to the Collateral Agent: 
 (a) Properties;
Titles, Etc. 
 (i) Subject to Immaterial Title Deficiencies, such Participating Partnership specified as an owner of
Hydrocarbon Interests in the most recently delivered Reserve Report had, as of the date evaluated in such Reserve Report, direct, good and defensible title as such owner of a fee or leasehold interest to the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such
Reserve Report free and clear of Liens except Excepted Liens and Liens securing the Participating Partnership Obligations of such Participating Partnership. Such Participating Partnership has good title to all personal Properties owned, or purported
to be owned, by it free and clear of all Liens except Liens permitted by Section 7.2. After giving full effect to the Excepted Liens, such Participating Partnership specified as an owner of Hydrocarbon Interests in the most recently
delivered Reserve Report owned, as of the date evaluated in such Reserve Report, the net interests in production attributable to the Hydrocarbon Interests reflected in such Reserve Report, and the ownership (whether in fee or by leasehold) of such
Properties shall not in any material respect obligate such Participating Partnership 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 such Reserve Report that is not offset by a corresponding proportionate increase in such Participating Partnership’s net revenue interest in such Property other than as reflected in such Reserve Report. All information
contained in the most recently delivered Reserve Report with respect to such Participating Partnership is true and correct in all material respects as of the date to which such Reserve Report relates. 

(ii) All material leases and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of the such Participating Partnership 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, except as in each case could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (iii) The rights and Properties presently owned, leased or
licensed by such Participating Partnership including, without limitation, all easements and rights of way, include all rights and Properties necessary to permit such Participating Partnership to conduct its business in all material respects in the
same manner as its business has been conducted prior to the date hereof. 
 (iv) All of the Properties of such Participating
Partnership which are reasonably necessary for the material operation of its business are in good working condition and are maintained in accordance with prudent business standards. Such Participating Partnership owns or has 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. 
 (b) 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) of such Participating Partnership have been maintained, operated and developed in a good and workmanlike manner and in conformity with all Laws and in
conformity with the provisions of all leases, subleases or other contracts comprising a part of the Hydrocarbon Interests and other contracts 

  
 25 

 
and agreements forming a part of such 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, (a) no Oil and Gas Property owned (whether in fee or by leasehold) by such Participating Partnership 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 (b) none of the wells comprising a part of the Oil and Gas Properties owned (whether in fee or by leasehold) by such Participating Partnership (or
Properties unitized therewith) is deviated from the vertical more than the maximum permitted by Law, and such wells are, in fact, bottomed under and are producing from, and the well bores are wholly within, such 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 such Participating
Partnership 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 which are operated by such Participating Partnership, in a manner consistent
with such Participating Partnership’s past practices (other than those the failure of which to maintain in accordance with this Section 5.2(b) could not reasonably be expect to have a Material Adverse Effect). 

(c) Gas Imbalances. As of the date hereof, on a net basis there are no gas imbalances or other prepayments made to such
Participating Partnership with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties of such Participating Partnership evaluated in the Initial Reserve Report that would require such Participating Partnership to deliver and transfer ownership of at some future time
volumes of Hydrocarbons produced from such Oil and Gas Properties having a value (based on current prices) of more than $5,000,000 without receiving full payment therefor at the time of delivery of those Hydrocarbons. 

(d) Marketing of Production. Except as disclosed in writing to the Collateral Agent, no agreements exist which are not cancelable
by such Participating Partnership on 60 days’ notice or less without penalty to such Participating Partnership or detriment for the sale of production from such Participating Partnership’s 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 months from the

or at law and in equity with respect to the Master General Partner and any applicable Participating Partnership for which a Triggering Event has occurred. 
 Article IX 
 Collateral Agent 

Section 9.1 Appointment and Authorization of Collateral Agent. Each Hedge Provider hereby irrevocably (subject to
Section 9.9) appoints, designates and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Hedging Facility Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties
as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any Hedging Facility Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any
other Hedging Facility Document, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Hedge
Provider, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Hedging Facility Document or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Hedging Facility Document with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations
arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 

  
 38 

 Section 9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may execute any of its
duties under this Agreement or any other Hedging Facility Document by or through agents, sub-agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such
duties. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

Section 9.3 Default; Collateral. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action (without incurring any liability to any Person for so
refraining) unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received instructions from a Notifying Hedge Provider pursuant to Section 8.2. All rights of action under the Hedging Facility Documents and all right to the Mortgaged
Properties hereunder may be enforced by the Collateral Agent and any suit or proceeding instituted by the Collateral Agent in furtherance of such enforcement shall be brought in its name as the Collateral Agent without the necessity of joining as
plaintiffs or defendants any Hedge Provider, and the recovery of any judgment shall be for the benefit of the Hedge Providers subject to the expenses of the Collateral Agent. In actions with respect to any Property of any Obligor, the Collateral
Agent is acting for the ratable benefit of each Hedge Provider. 
 (b) Each Hedge Provider authorizes and directs the Collateral
Agent to enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of and for the benefit of the Hedge Providers (or if previously entered into, hereby ratifies the Collateral Agent’s previously entering into such agreements
and Security Documents). 
 (c) Except to the extent unanimity is required hereunder, each Hedge Provider agrees that any action
taken by a Hedge Provider Majority in accordance with the provisions of the Hedging Facility Documents, and the exercise by a Hedge Provider Majority of the power set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Hedge Providers. 
 (d) The Collateral Agent is hereby
authorized on behalf of the Hedge Providers, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Hedge Provider, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Mortgaged Property or Security Document which may be necessary
to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Mortgaged Properties granted pursuant to the Security Document. 
 (e) The
Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation whatsoever to any Hedge Provider or to any other Person to assure that the Mortgaged Property exists or is owned (whether in fee or by leasehold) by the Person purporting to own it or is cared for,
protected, or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent (or any predecessor collateral agent) herein or pursuant thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or
enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights granted or available to the Collateral Agent in
this Section 9.3 or in any Security Document; IT BEING UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT IN RESPECT OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTIES, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION, OR EVENT RELATED THERETO, THE COLLATERAL AGENT MAY ACT IN ANY MANNER IT MAY DEEM APPROPRIATE,
IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, GIVEN THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S OWN INTEREST IN THE MORTGAGED PROPERTIES AS ONE OF THE HEDGE PROVIDERS AND THAT THE COLLATERAL AGENT SHALL HAVE NO DUTY OR LIABILITY WHATSOEVER TO ANY HEDGE PROVIDER, OTHER THAN TO ACT
WITHOUT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. 

  
 39 

 (f) The Hedge Providers hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and
in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Mortgaged Property: (i) constituting property in which no Participating Partnership owned an interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time
thereafter; (ii) constituting property leased to a Participating Partnership under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by
such Participating Partnership to be, renewed; or (iii) consisting of an instrument or other possessory collateral evidencing Debt or other obligations pledged to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), if the Debt or
obligations evidenced thereby has been paid in full or otherwise superseded. In addition, Hedge Providers irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent to release Liens upon Mortgaged Property as contemplated herein, in the Intercreditor Agreement and
in the other Hedging Facility Documents, or if approved, authorized, or ratified in writing by a Hedge Provider Majority. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Hedge Providers will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s
authority to release particular types or items of Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Section 9.3. 
 (g) In
furtherance of the authorizations set forth in this Section 9.3, each Hedge Provider hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, for and on behalf of and in the name of each
such Hedge Provider (i) to enter into Security Documents (including, without limitation, any appointments of substitute trustees under any Security Documents), (ii) to take action with respect to the Mortgaged Properties and Security
Documents to perfect, maintain, and preserve the Hedge Providers’ Liens, and (iii) to execute instruments of release or to take other action necessary to release Liens upon any Mortgaged Property to the extent authorized herein or in the
other Hedging Facility Documents. This power of attorney shall be liberally, not restrictively, construed so as to give the greatest latitude to the Collateral Agent’s power, as attorney, relative to the Mortgaged Property matters described in
this Section 9.3. The powers and authorities herein conferred on the Collateral Agent may be exercised by the Collateral Agent through any Person who, at the time of the execution of a particular instrument, is an officer of the
Collateral Agent (or any Person acting on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant to a valid power of attorney). The power of attorney conferred by this Section 9.3(g) to the Collateral Agent is granted for valuable consideration and is
coupled with an interest and is irrevocable so long as the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, shall remain unpaid. 

Section 9.4 Limitation of Liability. The Collateral Agent will not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Hedging Facility Document, except for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a final, non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction.

 Section 9.5 Entitled to Rely. The Collateral Agent may seek and rely upon, and shall be fully protected in
relying upon, any judicial order or judgment, upon any advice, opinion or statement of legal counsel, independent consultants and other experts selected by it in good faith and upon any certification, instruction, notice or other writing delivered
to it by an Obligor in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement or delivered to it by any Hedge Provider for whom it acts, without being required to determine the authenticity thereof or the correctness of any fact stated therein or the
propriety or validity of service thereof. The Collateral Agent may act in reliance upon any instrument comporting with the provisions of this Agreement or any signature reasonably believed by it to be genuine and may assume that any Person
purporting to give notice or receipt or advice or make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof or the other Hedging Facility Documents has been duly authorized to do so. To the extent an Officer’s
Certificate or opinion of counsel is required or permitted under this 

  
 40 

 
Agreement to be delivered to the Collateral Agent in respect of any matter, the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on Officer’s Certificate or opinion of counsel as to such matter and
such Officer’s Certificate or opinion of counsel shall be full warranty and protection to the Collateral Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Hedging Facility Documents, in
each case absent manifest error. 
 Section 9.6 Default; Triggering Event. The Collateral Agent will not be required
to inquire as to the occurrence or absence of any Default, Event of Default, Senior Credit Agreement Default or Triggering Event and will not be affected by or required to act upon any notice or knowledge as to the occurrence of any such event
unless and until it is directed by a Notifying Hedge Provider pursuant to Section 8.2. 
 Section 9.7
Indemnity in favor of the Collateral Agent. Each Hedge Provider shall reimburse the Collateral Agent upon demand for its Applicable Hedge Provider Percentage share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by
the Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Hedging Facility Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Collateral Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Obligors. The
undertaking in this Section 9.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 9.8 Limitations on Duty of Collateral Agent in Respect of Collateral. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the
Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the NY UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither the Collateral Agent, any
other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or
otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Obligor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The
Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
responsible to any Obligor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct (in each case as determined by a final, non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction).

 Section 9.9 Successor Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may resign at any time upon 30 days’
notice to the Hedge Providers with a copy of such notice to the Master General Partner. If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Agreement, a Hedge Provider Majority shall appoint from among the Hedge Providers a successor collateral agent for the
Hedge Providers which successor collateral agent shall be consented to by the Master General Partner at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent of the Master General Partner shall not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned). If no successor collateral agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Hedge Providers and, so long as no Event of
Default has occurred which is continuing, upon written approval of 

  
 41 

 
the Master General Partner (which approval of the Master General Partner shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), a successor collateral agent from among the Hedge Providers.
Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor collateral agent hereunder, such successor collateral agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent and the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean
such successor collateral agent and the retiring Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of
this Article IX and Section 10.6 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent under this Agreement. If no successor collateral agent has accepted appointment as
Collateral Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Hedge Providers shall
perform all of the duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as a Hedge Provider Majority appoint a successor agent as provided for above. 
 Section 9.10 Collateral Agent May File Proof of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to any Obligor, the Collateral Agent (irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent shall have made any demand on such Obligor) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Secured Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Hedge Providers and the Collateral Agent and their
respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Hedge Providers and the Collateral Agent under Section 10.6) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Hedge Provider to make such payments to the
Collateral Agent and, in the event that the Collateral Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Hedge Providers, to pay to the Collateral Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Collateral Agent under Section 10.6. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Hedge Provider any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
or composition affecting the Secured Obligations or the rights of any Hedge Provider or to authorize the Collateral Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Hedge Provider in any such proceeding. 

Section 9.11 Collateral Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Collateral Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, engage
in hedging transactions with, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Obligors as though it were not the Collateral Agent
hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Hedge Providers. The Hedge Providers acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Collateral Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Obligors or their Affiliates
(including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Obligor or Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such

  
 42 

 
information to them. With respect to the Hedge Transaction to which it may be a party, the Collateral Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Hedge Provider
and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Collateral Agent, and the terms “Hedge Provider” and “Hedge Providers” include the Collateral Agent in its individual capacity. 

Article X 

Miscellaneous Provisions 
 Section 10.1 Amendment. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor any other Hedging Facility Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to
an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Master General Partner, the Collateral Agent and Hedge Providers constituting a Hedge Provider Majority; provided, however, (a) any amendment, modification, consent or
waiver that affects disproportionately the rights, obligations or duties of a Hedge Provider under this Agreement or any other Hedge Facility document shall require the approval of such Hedge Provider and (b) any amendment or modification to
(i) the definition of “Hedge Provider Majority” contained in Section 1.1 hereof or (ii) Section 3.9 hereof shall require the approval of all Hedge Providers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, amendments,
consents and waivers with respect to any Approved Master Agreement are permitted in accordance with the terms thereof to the extent not in conflict with the terms of this Agreement or any Security Document.

Document, each Hedge Provider will provide a written confirmation to the Collateral Agent at the time each such approval is required certifying as to such Hedge Provider’s notional volume of Hydrocarbons under all outstanding Approved Master
Agreements, as more particularly described in the definition of “Hedge Provider Majority”. In making all determinations of approvals hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the notional volume of Hydrocarbons, as
determined and reported to it by each Hedge Provider, and shall have no duty to independently ascertain such volumes. 

Section 10.3 Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby except that (i) other than in
connection with a novation occurring under Section 3.2 of the Intercreditor Agreement, no Obligor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or with respect to any Hedge Transaction without the prior written
consent of the Collateral Agent, a Hedge Provider Majority, and with respect to any Participating Partnership, each Hedge Provider party to a Hedge Transaction with such Participating Partnership (and any attempted assignment or transfer by an
Obligor without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Hedge Provider may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or with respect to any Hedge Transaction except in accordance with Section 10.3(b).
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason
of this Agreement. 
 (b) A Hedge Provider may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations

(ii) the assignment of any Hedge Transaction is permitted under the Approved Master Agreement governing such Hedge Transaction, and (iii) the assignee, if not currently a Hedge Provider, shall become a Hedge Provider in accordance with
Section 10.16. Any such assignment shall be effected by means of an assignment and assumption agreement acceptable to the 

  
 43 

 
Collateral Agent, and conforming to the requirements of any Approved Master Agreement. The assignment shall become effective as of the date specified in the assignment and assumption agreement
upon its due execution by the parties thereto and delivery to the Collateral Agent.

respect thereto) of this Agreement and the other Hedging Facility Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of or consents related to the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall

of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, defend and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities and related expenses, including the
reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other

(vii) the breach or non-compliance by any Obligor with any Environmental Law applicable to any Obligor, (viii) the past ownership by any Obligor of any of their Properties or past activity on any of their Properties which, though lawful
and fully permissible at the time, could result in present liability, (ix) the presence, use, release, storage, treatment, disposal, generation, threatened release, transport, arrangement for transport or arrangement for disposal of oil, oil

 45 

 
an omission, including without limitation, all types of negligent conduct identified in the restatement (second) of torts of one or more of the Indemnitees or by reason of strict liability
imposed without fault on any one or more of the Indemnitees; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (c) To the extent that the Obligors fail to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Collateral Agent under Section 10.6(a) or Section 10.6(b), each Hedge Provider severally
agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent such Hedge Provider’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed

 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Obligor shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or

(e) All amounts due under this Section 10.6 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Hedging Facility Document, no Participating
Partnership shall be obligated to make any indemnification or expense reimbursement payment if such indemnification or expense reimbursement obligation arises from an underlying event or occurrence that (i) is directly traceable and
attributable solely to Participating Partnership(s) other than such Participating Partnership and (ii) does not directly or indirectly involve, benefit, burden or relate in any way to such Participating Partnership (any such obligation, a
“Traceable Obligation”, and any such Participating Partnership or group of Participating Partnerships to which such Traceable Obligation is attributable, the “Responsible Partnerships”). The Master General Partner
and the Responsible Partnerships shall be, and any other Participating Partnerships shall not be, jointly and severally liable for Traceable Obligations. Any determination as to whether a Participating Partnership is obligated to make any
indemnification or expense reimbursement payment pursuant to this Section 10.6(f) shall be made by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion and any such determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Participating Partnerships

Collateral Agent and (ii) such Approved Master Agreement by such Designated Partnership and the applicable Hedge Provider, such Designated Partnership shall be deemed a 

  
 48 

 
Participating Partnership hereunder as if an original signatory hereto. The Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver any Participating Partnership Joinder Supplement that is executed by the
Participating Partnership and the relevant Hedge Provider. Participating Partnership Joinder Supplements executed pursuant to this Section 10.17 do not require the signatures or consents of all Hedge Providers party to this Agreement.
Promptly after execution of any such Participating Partnership Joinder Supplement, the Collateral Agent will send a copy thereof to each other Hedge Provider, but failure or delay in doing so will not make such Participating Partnership Joinder
Supplement void or voidable or otherwise affect the rights and duties of the parties hereto.

 PART 5 

OTHER PROVISIONS 
  

	(a)	 Definitions. This Agreement and each Transaction are subject to the 2006 ISDA Definitions published by the International Swaps and
Derivatives Association, Inc. (the “2006 ISDA 

  
 A-9

	 	
Definitions”) and will be governed by the provisions of the 2006 ISDA Definitions. The provisions of the 2006 ISDA Definitions are incorporated by reference in, and shall form part of, this
Agreement and each Confirmation. Any reference to a “Swap Transaction” in the 2006 ISDA Definitions is deemed to be a reference to a “Transaction” for purposes of this Agreement or any Confirmation, and any reference to a
“Transaction” in this Agreement or any Confirmation is deemed to be a reference to a “Swap Transaction” for purposes of the 2006 ISDA Definitions. 

 

	(b)	Inconsistency. In the event of any inconsistency between any of the following documents, the relevant document first listed below shall govern: (i) a
Confirmation; (ii) the Schedule; (iii) Commodity Definitions (as defined below), (iv) the 2006 ISDA Definitions; and (v) the printed form of ISDA Master Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between provisions contained in
the 2006 Definitions and the Commodity Definitions, the Commodity Definitions shall prevail. 

  

	(c)	Scope of Agreement. Any transaction (other than a repurchase transaction, reverse repurchase transaction, buy/sellback transaction or securities lending
transaction) now existing or hereafter entered into between the parties (whether or not evidenced by a Confirmation) which may otherwise constitute a “Specified Transaction” (without regard to the phrase “which is not a Transaction
under this Agreement but” in the definition of Specified Transaction) shall constitute a “Transaction” under this Agreement and shall be subject to, governed by, and construed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, unless the
confirming document(s) exchanged or otherwise effective between the parties for that transaction expressly provide(s) otherwise. For any Transaction not evidenced by a Confirmation, Section 2(a)(i) of this Agreement is amended to read as
follows: “(i) Each party will make each payment or delivery to be made by it under each Transaction, as specified in each Confirmation (or otherwise in accordance with the terms of that Transaction if not evidenced by a Confirmation), subject
to the other provisions of this Agreement.” 

  

	(d)	Change of Account. Any account designated by a party pursuant to Section 2(b) shall be in the same legal and tax jurisdiction as the original
account. 

  

	(e)	Set-off. For purposes of this Agreement, Section 6 is hereby amended to insert the following Section 6(f): 

 

	 	“(f)	Set-off. Any amount (the “Early Termination Amount”) payable to one party (the Payee) by the other party (the Payer) under Section 6(e), in
circumstances where there is a Defaulting Party or one Affected Party, will, at the option of the party (“X”) other than the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party (and without prior notice to the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party),
be reduced by its set-off against any amount(s) (the “Other Agreement Amount”) payable (whether at such time or in the future or upon the occurrence of a contingency) by the Payee to the Payer (irrespective of the currency, place of
payment or booking office of the obligation) under any other agreement(s) issued or executed by one party to or in favour of, the other party (and the Other Agreement Amount will be discharged promptly and in all respects to the extent it is so
set-off). X will give notice to the other party of any set-off effected under this Section 6(f). 

 For this
purpose, either the Early Termination Amount or the Other Agreement Amount (or the relevant portion of such amounts) may be converted by X into the currency in which the other is denominated at the rate of exchange at which such party would be able,
acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith, to purchase the relevant amount of such currency. 

  
 A-10

 If an obligation is unascertained, X may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off
in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other when the obligation is ascertained. 
 Nothing
in this Section 6(f) shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This Section shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, lien or other right to which any party is at any
time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).” 
  

	(f)	Confirmation Procedures. The parties hereby amend Section 9(e)(ii) of the Agreement with respect to all commodity Transactions where an energy commodity is
the relevant Commodity by adding the following sentences at the end thereof: “On or promptly following the Trade Date of a Transaction conducted over the telephone, Party A will send to Party B a Confirmation. Party B will promptly thereafter
in writing confirm the accuracy of, or request the correction of, such Confirmation. If any dispute shall arise as to whether an error exists in a Confirmation, the parties shall in good faith make reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute. If Party
B fails to accept or dispute the Confirmation in the manner set forth above within three Local Business Days after it was effectively sent to Party B, the Confirmation shall be deemed to correctly reflect the parties’ agreement on the terms of
the Transaction referred to therein, absent manifest error. The requirement of this Section and elsewhere in this Agreement that the parties exchange Confirmations shall for all purposes be deemed satisfied by a Confirmation sent and an
acknowledgment deemed given as provided herein.” 

  

	(g)	Application of Hedging Facility Agreement. For the purpose of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge the existence of the Hedging Facility Agreement and the
Intercreditor Agreement and further acknowledge that (i) their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the Hedging Facility Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) Party A
is a Hedge Provider and (iii) this Agreement constitutes an Approved Master Agreement. In case of conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Hedging Facility Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement, the
provisions of the Hedging Facility Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement will prevail. 

  

	(h)	Accounts. If a Confirmation does not state the account to which United States Dollars payments are to be made, they shall be made as follows, unless otherwise
notified: 

  

					
	 Party A:
	  		  	
	 Pay:

 A-11

	(i)	Additional Covenants. Party B covenants and agrees, for the benefit of Party A, not to enter into, or otherwise agree to, any amendment, waiver,
supplement or other modification of this Agreement, including the Schedule thereto, unless such amendment, waiver, supplement or modification is permitted by the terms of the Hedging Facility Agreement. 

 

	(j)	Hedging Facility Agreement. 

  

	 	(i)	Party B hereby acknowledges that Party A is a secured party under the Hedging Facility Agreement and the Security Documents with respect to this Agreement and a direct
or third-party beneficiary, as applicable, under the Security Documents, and Party B agrees for the benefit of Party A that neither it nor any other Person will take any action (whether in the form of an amendment, a modification, supplement,
waiver, approval, consent or otherwise) which could have a disproportionately adverse effect on the rights, interest or benefits granted to Party A under the Hedging Facility Agreement and other related documents with respect to this Agreement
(relative to the other Hedge Providers), whether or not this Agreement is specifically referred to or identified therein. 

  

	 	(ii)	On the date Party B executes and delivers this Agreement and on each date on which a Transaction is entered into, Party B hereby represents and warrants to Party A: the
Hedging Facility Agreement is in full force and effect; that Party B is not party to any separate agreement with any of the parties to the Hedging Facility Agreement that would have the effect of diminishing or impairing the rights, interests or
benefits that have been granted to Party A under, and which are expressly set forth in, the Hedging Facility Agreement; that this Agreement constitutes an “Approved Master Agreement” under the Hedging Facility Agreement; and that Party A
constitutes a “Hedge Provider” under the Hedging Facility Agreement. In addition, on each date on which a Transaction is entered into, Party B hereby represents and warrants to Party A: that the Transaction meets all of the requirements of
the Hedging Facility Agreement as a “Hedge Transaction”; Party B’s obligations under this Agreement are secured under the Hedging Facility Agreement; and that under the terms of the Hedging Facility Agreement, neither the consent of
Collateral Agent nor any of the Hedge Providers (other than Party A) under the Hedging Facility Agreement is required for Party B to enter into that Transaction or for Party A to be entitled with respect to that Transaction to the rights, interests
and benefits granted to Party A under the Hedging Facility Agreement. 

  

	(k)	Consent to Notice and Communications. Party B hereby consents to Party A at any time providing the Collateral Agent (who may disclose to the other Hedge
Providers) with copies of this Agreement, excluding Confirmations, but including information contained in such Confirmations but only to the extent required to be disclosed under the Hedging Facility Agreement. Party A hereby consents to Party B
providing the Collateral Agent (who may disclose to the other Hedge Providers) with copies of this Agreement, excluding Confirmations, but including information contained in such Confirmations but only to the extent required to be disclosed under
the Hedging Facility Agreement. In addition, Party A shall not be precluded from communicating with the Collateral Agent or any party to, or any third party beneficiary under, the Hedging Facility Agreement for the purpose of exercising, enforcing
or protecting any of Party A’s rights or remedies under this Agreement or any rights, interests or benefits granted to Party A under the Hedging Facility Agreement. 

 

	(l)	 2005 ISDA Commodity Definitions. The 2005 ISDA Commodity Definitions (as published by the International Swap and Derivatives Association,
Inc.) as in effect as of the date of the 

  
 A-12

	 	
Hedging Facility Agreement (the “Commodity Definitions”), are incorporated by reference in this Agreement and the relevant Confirmations with respect to “Transactions,” as

 ARTICLE I. 

OBLIGATIONS SECURED 
 1.1. The foregoing conveyance is made in trust to secure and enforce payment and performance of each of the following (herein collectively called the “Secured Obligations”):

 (a) Any and all present or future indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of (i) Mortgagor incurred
under, arising out of or in connection with the Hedging Facility Documents and (ii) the Master General Partner, solely to the extent of Mortgagor’s Participating Partnership Obligations as a result of the Master General Partner being
liable therefor under Section 4.1(a) of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement, as the same may be modified, renewed and extended from time to time, including, without limitation, the “Secured Obligations” as defined in the Secured

reasonable attorneys’ fees in the event of a default under the terms thereof; 
 (b) Any and all renewals
and extensions, in whole or in part, amendments, modifications (including increases, if any) and rearrangements of the obligations described in the foregoing clause (a); and 

(c) Any and all other present or future indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of Mortgagor incurred under, arising out
of or in connection with the Hedging Facility Documents (including, without limitation, all amounts payable in respect of a liquidation of, or an early termination of, any Hedge Transaction, and any unpaid amounts owing in respect thereof) or other
obligations by Mortgagor to Mortgagee or any other Secured Party, whether direct or indirect, primary or secondary, fixed or contingent, arising under any Hedging Facility Document it being expressly contemplated that Mortgagor may from time to time
hereafter otherwise become further obligated or indebted to Mortgagee or any other Secured Party. 

  
 4 

 1.2. The amount of future liabilities or total obligations that may be outstanding at any
time and subject to mortgage protection shall be [                    ] Dollars ($[        ]). This Mortgage
is intended to be an “Open-End Mortgage” as defined in 42Pa. C.S. § 8143 and Mortgagor and Mortgagee intend and agree that this Mortgage shall secure, to the extent set forth in Section 1.1, unpaid balances
of any obligations or other amounts owing under the Hedging Facility Documents to any Secured Party, and made before and after this Mortgage is delivered to the recorder or other public officer for recordation among the official public records of
the county or counties wherein the Mortgaged Properties are located to the extent that the total unpaid Secured Obligations so secured, exclusive of interest thereon and advances for taxes, assessments, maintenance charges, insurance premiums, costs
incurred for the protection of the Mortgaged Properties or the encumbrance of this Mortgage and the expenses incurred by Mortgagee by reason of default by Mortgagor under this Mortgage which may be outstanding at any one time does not exceed
[                    ] DOLLARS ($[        ]). A reduction in the amount of Secured Obligations to zero shall
not affect the existence of the Lien of this Mortgage. 
 1.3. Mortgagor specifically waives presentment, protest, notices of
dishonor, intention to accelerate and acceleration. 
 ARTICLE II. 

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS 
 2.1. Mortgagor represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, Mortgagee, the other Secured Parties, and with each of them, so long as the Secured Obligations or any part thereof remain unpaid,
as follows: 
 (a) Mortgagor has properly and timely performed whatever may be required by the provisions of each
of the Leases (or by any contract, assignment or conveyance under which Mortgagor holds title to any of the Mortgaged Properties) to perpetuate the Leases and to perfect or maintain Mortgagor’s title, including, without limitation, Mortgagor
has duly paid or provided for all rentals and royalties due and payable in accordance with the terms of any leases or subleases comprising a part of the Mortgages Properties; 

(b) Mortgagor has good and defensible title to and is possessed of the Mortgaged Properties, free of any and all adverse
claims, rights of others, Liens, encumbrances, security interests, contracts, agreements, preferential purchase rights or other restrictions or limitations of any nature or kind except Excepted Liens, Immaterial Title Deficiencies and Liens created
pursuant to the Security Documents. The Mortgaged Properties consist of all of the Leases and the indicated oil and gas wells located (or to be located) within the boundaries of the applicable Leases. The description of the Leases set forth on
Exhibit A is complete and legally sufficient for all purposes relevant to the filing of, and perfection of Liens and security interests in the Mortgaged Properties to secure 

  
 5 

 
payment of the Secured Obligations pursuant to, this Mortgage. Mortgagor owns an undivided working interest and a net revenue interest as those terms are defined in Exhibit A, of not less
than the amount set forth in the applicable subparts of Exhibit A for the indicated Leases. No operating agreement, contract or other agreement affecting any part of the Mortgaged Properties to which Mortgagor is a party or to which Mortgagor
is bound requires Mortgagor to bear any of the costs relating to the Mortgaged Properties greater than the working interest of Mortgagor in any such portion of the Mortgaged Properties, except (i) in the event that Mortgagor is obligated under
an operating agreement to assume a portion of a non-consenting party’s share of costs and expenses and, as a result thereof shall own and be entitled to receive an equivalent portion of such non-consenting party’s interests in the well and
share of Hydrocarbons produced therefrom or (ii) as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report. All proceeds from the sale of Mortgagor’s share of the Hydrocarbons being produced from the Mortgaged Properties are currently
being paid in full to Mortgagor by the purchasers thereof on a timely basis and none of such proceeds are currently being held in suspense by such purchaser or any other party. Mortgagor will at all times use its commercially reasonable efforts to
protect and defend the title to all of the Mortgaged Properties, paying all expenses incurred or to be incurred in defending the title to the same against all claims or charges other than Excepted Liens, Immaterial Title Deficiencies and Liens
created pursuant to the Security Documents, and will indemnify and hold the Secured Parties, and each of them, harmless against any such claim or charge. 
 (c) Mortgagor shall promptly, upon knowledge thereof, notify Mortgagee in the event of institution of any suit for the cancellation of or in any manner materially and adversely affecting any of the Leases
or any land covered or purported to be covered thereby or the land or the title of Mortgagor thereto. 
 (d)
Mortgagor shall promptly cure any defects in the execution and delivery of this instrument. Mortgagor at Mortgagor’s expense will promptly execute and deliver to Mortgagee upon reasonable request by Mortgagee all such other and further
documents, agreements and instruments in compliance with or accomplishment of the covenants and agreements of Mortgagor herein or to further evidence and describe more fully the Mortgaged Properties, or to correct any material omissions in this
instrument, or to state more fully the security obligations set out herein, or to perfect, protect and/or preserve any Lien or security interest created hereby, or to make any recordings, or to file any notices, or obtain any consents, all as may be
necessary or appropriate in connection with any thereof. Mortgagor shall pay for all reasonable costs of preparing, recording and releasing any of the above. 
 (e) Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee, in their entirety, all judgments, decrees, and awards for injury or damage to the Mortgaged Properties which have named Mortgagor as a party or to which
Mortgagor is entitled. Upon an Event of Default and for so long as same is continuing, Mortgagor authorizes Mortgagee, at its reasonable election, to apply any such judgment, decree and/or award, or the proceeds thereof, to the Secured Obligations
hereby secured as Mortgagee may elect, and Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee, in the name of Mortgagor, to execute and deliver valid acquittance for, and to appeal from, any such judgment, decree or award. 

  
 6 

 (f) Mortgagor has full power and lawful authority to grant, bargain, sell,
assign, transfer, mortgage and convey a security interest in all of the Mortgaged Properties in the manner and form herein provided. No authorization, approval, consent or waiver of any lessor, sublessor, Governmental Authority or other party or
parties whomsoever is required in connection with the execution and delivery by Mortgagor of this Mortgage other than (i) the recording and filing of the Mortgage and (ii) those third party approvals or consent which, if not made or
obtained, would not cause a Default under the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or do not have an adverse effect on the enforceability of the Mortgage. 

2.2. All or portions of the Mortgaged Properties may be comprised of interests in the Leases or Mortgaged Properties which are other than
working interests or which may be operated by a party other than Mortgagor and with respect to all or any thereof, the warranties, representations, covenants and agreements made in Section 2.1 with respect to operations of the Mortgaged
Properties are modified to require Mortgagor to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain compliance with such warranties, representations, covenants and agreements by the working interest owners or the operator or operators of such Leases
or Mortgaged Properties. 
 2.3. If Mortgagor fails to perform any act which hereunder it is required to perform or to pay any
money which hereunder it is required to pay, Mortgagee, following an occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, may perform or cause to be performed such act or to pay such money. Mortgagor will, upon request by Mortgagee,
promptly reimburse Mortgagee for all amounts reasonably expended, advanced or incurred by Mortgagee to satisfy any obligation of Mortgagor under this instrument or to protect the Mortgaged Properties or to enforce the rights of Mortgagee under this
instrument, which amounts will include all court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, fees of auditors and accountants, and investigation expenses reasonably incurred by Mortgagee in connection with any such matters, together with interest on
each such amount from the date that the same is expended, advanced or incurred by Mortgagee until the date of written demand or request by Mortgagee for the reimbursement of same, at the Post-Default Rate (as defined in Section 3.6).

 ARTICLE III. 
 ASSIGNMENT OF RUNS; ASSIGNMENT OF AS-EXTRACTED COLLATERAL 
 3.1. For the purpose
of additionally securing the payment of the Secured Obligations and to facilitate the discharge of any of the Secured Obligations and as cumulative of any and all rights and remedies herein provided for, effective as of the Effective Date, Mortgagor
hereby bargains, sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and conveys unto Mortgagee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in and to: 
 (a) all of its As-Extracted Collateral as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code presently in effect in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Properties is situated or which otherwise is applicable to
the creation or perfection of the Liens described herein or the rights and remedies of Mortgagee under this Mortgage (the “Applicable UCC”) located in or deriving from the Mortgaged Properties located in the county where this
Mortgage is filed, including without limitation, the Hydrocarbons and all products obtained or processed therefrom; and 

  
 7 

 (b) its interest in the Hydrocarbons, together with its share of the
proceeds derived from the sale thereof (such proceeds being hereinafter called “proceeds of runs”). 

3.2. Mortgagor directs and instructs each purchaser of the Hydrocarbons to pay to Mortgagee all of the proceeds of runs until such time
as such purchaser has been furnished evidence that all Secured Obligations have been paid and that the Lien evidenced hereby has been released. Mortgagor authorizes Mortgagee to receive and collect all sums of money derived from the proceeds of
runs, and no purchaser of the Hydrocarbons shall have the responsibility for the application of any funds paid to Mortgagee. 

3.3. Independent of the foregoing provisions and authorities herein granted, Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver any and all transfer
orders, division orders and other instruments that may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee or that may be required by the purchaser of the Hydrocarbons for the purpose of effectuating payment for the proceeds of runs to Mortgagee. 

3.4. The monthly proceeds of runs received by Mortgagee may be held by Mortgagee and applied to the payment of any Secured Obligations
owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee in accordance with Section 3.9 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement. In its sole discretion, Mortgagee may elect to return any part of said funds to Mortgagor or to deposit the same to Mortgagor’s
account without applying it to the Secured Obligations. 
 3.5. The receipt by Mortgagee of any monies, including but not
limited to money received as proceeds of the As-Extracted Collateral or the proceeds of runs, shall not in any manner change or alter in any respect the obligations of Mortgagor upon the Secured Obligations, and nothing herein contained shall be
construed as limiting Mortgagee to the collection of any of the Secured Obligations out of the proceeds of the As-Extracted Collateral or the proceeds of runs. The Secured Obligations shall continue as the absolute and unconditional obligation of
Mortgagor to pay, as provided in the instruments evidencing the Secured Obligations, the amounts therein specified at their respective maturity dates, whether by acceleration or otherwise. Nothing in this Article III is intended to be an
acceptance of collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. 
 3.6. Mortgagee is hereby absolved from all liability for
failure to enforce collection of the proceeds of runs and from all other responsibility in connection therewith except the responsibility to account to Mortgagor for funds actually received. Mortgagor agrees to indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless
against any and all liabilities, actions, claims, judgments, costs, charges and reasonable attorneys’ fees by reason of the assertion that Mortgagee has received, either before or after the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, funds from
the sale of Hydrocarbons claimed by third persons, except for third parties who have valid claims, Mortgagee shall have the right to defend against any such claims or actions, employing attorneys of its own selection. If not furnished with indemnity
satisfactory to Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall have the right to compromise and adjust any such claims, actions and judgments, and, in addition to the rights to be indemnified as herein provided, all reasonable

  
 8 

 
amounts paid by Mortgagee in compromise, satisfaction or discharge of any such claim, action or judgment and all court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses of every character
incurred by Mortgagee shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor, shall be secured by the Lien and security interest evidenced by this instrument and shall bear interest on each such amount from the date that the same is expended, advanced or
incurred by Mortgagee until the date of written demand or request by Mortgagee for the reimbursement of same, at a rate of interest equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) or (b) any
rate of interest that may accrue after an Event of Default pursuant to the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement or any other Hedging Facility Document (“Post-Default Rate”). Any provision to the contrary herein contained
notwithstanding, the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by Mortgagee hereunder shall never exceed the Maximum Rate. 
 3.7. Each of the provisions of this Article III shall be deemed a covenant running with the land and shall be binding upon Mortgagor, its successors and assigns, and inure to the benefit of
Mortgagee, its successors and assigns. 
 3.8. For purposes of more fully effecting the assignment made under this Article
III and continuing the rights of Mortgagee thereunder, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact for it, with full authority in the place
and stead of Mortgagor and in the name of Mortgagor from time to time in the discretion of Mortgagee, to pursue any and all rights, remedies and payments (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest). In addition to the other rights
granted to Mortgagee in this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby further transfers and assigns to Mortgagee any and all such Liens, security interests, financing statements or similar interests of Mortgagor attributable to its interests in the Hydrocarbons
and proceeds of runs therefrom arising under or created by said statutory provision, judicial decision or otherwise. The power of attorney granted to Mortgagee in this Section 3.8, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable
(until such Event of Default has been cured, remedied or waived) so long as the Secured Obligations or any part thereof remain unpaid. 
 3.9. In addition to the rights, titles and interests hereby conveyed pursuant to this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby grants, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to Mortgagee those Liens, if any,
granted to the Mortgagor by law under the Applicable UCC to secure the sale of Hydrocarbons at the wellhead. 
 ARTICLE IV.

 DEFEASANCE 
 4.1. Upon the Discharge Date or date of the withdrawal of the Mortgagor pursuant to Section 10.18 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement (the “Withdrawal Date”), then and
in that case only, this document shall have no force and effect, this conveyance shall become null and void, the Mortgaged Properties hereby conveyed shall become wholly clear of the Liens, conveyances, assignments and security interests evidenced
hereby, and all such Liens, conveyances, assignments and security interests shall be automatically released at Mortgagor’s cost. 

  
 9 

 ARTICLE V. 
 REMEDIES IN EVENT OF DEFAULT 
 5.1. The term “Event of
Default” as used in this instrument shall mean the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement. 
 5.2. This Mortgage shall also constitute and may be enforced from time to time as a mortgage, assignment, chattel mortgage, contract, mortgage, financing statement and security agreement, and from time to
time as any one or more thereof as appropriate under applicable law. Mortgagee shall be entitled to all of the rights, remedies and benefits of a secured party, mortgagee and a beneficiary granted under applicable law; and, to the fullest extent of
such law, shall be entitled to enforce such rights, remedies and benefits. Mortgagor intends and hereby grants to Mortgagee all rights, powers and remedies accorded a secured party, mortgagee, and a beneficiary under applicable law whether or not
such rights, powers and remedies are expressly granted or reserved herein. 
 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, Mortgagee may, without notice, demand or declaration of default, which are hereby waived by Mortgagor, proceed by one or more actions in equity or at law for the seizure and sale of the Mortgaged Properties or any portion
thereof, for the foreclosure or sale of the Mortgaged Properties or any portion thereof by judicial foreclosure by appropriate proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, by a trustee’s sale, or in any other manner then permitted by
law, for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement of Mortgagor herein contained or in aid of the execution of any right, power or remedy herein granted, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate equitable or legal remedy and to
recover judgment against Mortgagor. In the event a sale of the Mortgaged Properties under the power of sale shall be commenced by Mortgagee, Mortgagee may at any time before the sale of the Mortgaged Properties elect to abandon the sale, and
Mortgagee may then institute a suit for the collection of the Secured Obligations and for the foreclosure of this Mortgage by judicial action. It is agreed that if Mortgagee should institute a suit for the foreclosure of this Mortgage by judicial
action, Mortgagee may at any time before the entry of a final judgment dismiss such suit and then cause the Mortgaged Properties to be sold under the power of sale herein granted in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage. 

Any sale of the Mortgaged Properties under this Article V shall take place at such place or places and otherwise in such manner
and upon such notice as may be required by law, or, in the absence of any such requirement, as Mortgagee may reasonably deem appropriate. Mortgagor expressly agrees that, except as required by applicable law, Mortgagee may offer the Mortgaged
Properties as a whole or in such parcels or lots as Mortgagee elects, regardless of the manner in which the Mortgaged Properties may be described. Mortgagee may appoint or delegate any one or more persons as agent to perform any act or acts
necessary or incident to any sale held by Mortgagee, including the posting of notices and the conduct of sale, but in the name and on behalf of Mortgagee. If Mortgagee shall have given notice of sale hereunder, any successor or substitute mortgagee
agent thereafter appointed may complete the sale and the conveyance of the property pursuant thereto as if such notice had been given by the successor or substitute mortgagee agent conducting the sale. 

  
 10 

 Any sale of the Mortgaged Properties conducted under this Article V may be postponed
from time to time as provided by applicable law; or, in the absence of any such provisions, Mortgagee may postpone the sale of the Mortgaged Properties or any part thereof by public announcement at the time and place of such sale, and from time to
time thereafter may further postpone such sale by public announcement made at the time of sale fixed by the preceding postponement. Sale of a part of the Mortgaged Properties will not exhaust the power of sale, and sales may be made from time to
time until all Mortgaged Properties are sold or the Secured Obligations are paid in full. 
 Mortgagee shall have the right to
bid or to become the purchaser at any sale made pursuant to the provisions of this Article V, and shall have the right to credit upon the amount of the bid made therefor the amount payable to it out of the net proceeds of such sale.

 Any deed, bill of sale or other conveyance executed by or on behalf of Mortgagee, the sheriff or other official or party
responsible for conducting the sale shall be prima facie evidence of the compliance with all statutory requirements for the sale and execution of such deed, bill of sale or other conveyance and will conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of
the recitals and other matters stated therein, including, without limitation, nonpayment or nonperformance of the Secured Obligations, violation of the terms and covenants contained herein, and the advertisement and conduct of such sale in the
manner provided herein or as provided by applicable law. Mortgagor does hereby ratify and confirm all legal acts that Mortgagee may reasonably do in carrying out the provisions of this Mortgage. Any sale of the Mortgaged Properties or any portion
thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article V will operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand of Mortgagor in and to the property sold and will be a perpetual bar against Mortgagor and shall, subject to applicable
law, vest title in the purchaser free and clear of all Liens, security interests and encumbrances, including without limitation, Liens, security interests and encumbrances junior or subordinate to the Liens, security interests and encumbrances
created by this Mortgage. Upon any sale of the Mortgaged Properties or any portion thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article V, the receipt by Mortgagee, the sheriff or other official or party responsible for conducting the sale,
shall be sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale for the purchase money, and such purchaser or purchasers and the heirs, devisees, personal representatives, successors and assigns thereof shall not, after paying such purchase
money and receiving such receipt of Mortgagee, the sheriff or such other official or party, be obliged to see to the application thereof or be in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof. Any purchaser at a sale
will, subject to mandatory redemption periods, if any, receive immediate possession of the Mortgaged Properties purchased, and Mortgagor agrees that if Mortgagor retains possession of the Mortgaged Properties or any part thereof subsequent to such
sale, Mortgagor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and will, if Mortgagor remains in possession after demand to remove, be guilty of forcible detainer and will be subject to eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with
or without process of law and all damages to Mortgagor by reason thereof are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor. 
 Upon a
sale conducted pursuant to this Article V of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Properties consisting of interests in leases, easements, rights-of-way, agreements or other documents and instruments covering, affecting or otherwise relating
to federal or tribal lands (the “Federal Interests”) (including, without limitation, leases, easements and rights-of-way issued 

  
 11 

 
by the Bureau of Land Management), Mortgagor agrees to take all action and execute all instruments necessary or advisable to transfer the Federal Interests to the purchaser at such sale,
including without limitation, to execute, acknowledge and deliver assignments of the Federal Interests on officially approved forms in sufficient counterparts to satisfy applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, to seek and request approval
thereof and to take all other action necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as Mortgagor’s attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power and authority in the place and stead of Mortgagor,
in the name of Mortgagor or otherwise, to take any such action and to execute any such instruments on behalf of Mortgagor that Mortgagee may deem necessary or advisable to so transfer the Federal Interests, including without limitation, the power
and authority to execute, acknowledge and deliver such assignments, to seek and request approval thereof and to take all other action deemed necessary or advisable by Mortgagee in connection therewith; and Mortgagor hereby adopts, ratifies and
confirms all such actions and instruments. Such power of attorney and proxy is coupled with an interest, shall survive the dissolution, termination, reorganization or other incapacity of Mortgagor and shall be irrevocable. No such action by
Mortgagee shall constitute acknowledgment of, or assumption of liabilities relating to, the Federal Interests, and neither Mortgagor nor any other party may claim that Mortgagee is bound, directly or indirectly, by any such action. 

Mortgagor understands and agrees that the obligations secured by this Mortgage also are secured by security interests in personal
property. Mortgagor agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default which would allow Mortgagee to proceed against real or personal property security, or both, it shall not be necessary for Mortgagee first to
proceed against real property under any “one Form of Action” statute or legal theory. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee need not proceed against all properties, or
against real or personal property in any particular order, and need not reduce any claim against any property to judgment, sale or conclusion before proceeding against other properties. Mortgagee or any Secured Party may resort to any security given
by this instrument or to any other security now existing or hereafter given to secure the payment of the Secured Obligations, in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order as may seem best to such Mortgagee in its sole and uncontrolled
discretion. Any such action shall not in any way be considered as a waiver of any of the rights, benefits or Liens evidenced by this instrument. 
 5.3. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to all other rights, powers and remedies herein conferred or conferred by operation of law, Mortgagee shall have
all of the rights and remedies of an assignee and secured party granted by applicable law, including without limitation, the Applicable UCC as then in effect, and shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, have the right and power, but not
the obligation, to take possession of the personal property included in the Mortgaged Properties and any proceeds thereof wherever located, and for that purpose Mortgagee may enter upon any premises on which any or all of such personal property is
located and take possession of and operate such personal property or remove the same therefrom. Mortgagee may require Mortgagor to assemble such personal property and make it available to Mortgagee at a place to be designated by Mortgagee that is
reasonably convenient to both parties. The following presumptions shall exist and shall be deemed conclusive with regard to the exercise by Mortgagee of any of its remedies with respect to personal property: 

(a) If notice is required by applicable law, Mortgagor agrees that ten (10) days prior written notice of the time and
place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be made shall be deemed reasonable notice to Mortgagor. No such notice is necessary if such property is perishable, threatens to
decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. 

  
 12 

 (b) If Mortgagee in good faith believes that the Securities Act of 1933 or
any other state or federal law prohibits or restricts the customary manner of sale or distribution of any of such property, Mortgagee may sell such property privately or in any other manner deemed advisable by Mortgagee at such price or prices as
Mortgagee determines in its reasonable discretion. Mortgagor recognizes that such prohibition or restriction may cause such property to have less value than it otherwise would have and that, consequently, such sale or disposition by Mortgagee may
result in a lower sales price than if the sale were otherwise held. 
 5.4. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, in addition to all other rights, powers and remedies herein conferred or conferred by operation of law, Mortgagee shall, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, have the right and power, but not the obligation, to enter
upon and take immediate possession of the Mortgaged Properties or any portion thereof to exclude Mortgagor therefrom, to hold, use, operate, manage, enjoy and control such Mortgaged Properties, to make all such repairs, replacements, alterations,
additions and improvements to the same as Mortgagee may reasonably deem proper or expedient, to sell all of the As-Extracted Collateral included in the same subject to the provisions of Article III hereof, to demand, collect and retain all
other earnings, rents, issues, profits, proceeds and other sums due or to become due with respect to such Mortgaged Properties accounting for and applying to the payment of the Secured Obligations only the net earnings arising therefrom after
charging against the receipts therefrom all fees, costs, expenses, charges, damages and losses incurred by reason thereof plus interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate without any liability to Mortgagor in connection therewith. Such possession
shall at once be delivered to Mortgagee upon request, and on refusal or failure to so deliver possession, the delivery of such possession may be enforced by Mortgagee by any appropriate civil suit or proceeding. 

5.5. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to all other rights, powers and remedies herein
conferred or conferred by operation of law, Mortgagee shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Properties without the necessity of the posting of a bond or notice; and shall, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law,
be entitled to such receiver as a matter of right, without regard to the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor, the value or adequacy of the Mortgaged Properties or the Mortgaged Properties being in danger of being materially injured or reduced in
value as security by removal, destruction, deterioration, accumulation of prior Liens or otherwise; and such receiver may be appointed by any court of competent jurisdiction upon ex parte application, and without notice, notice being expressly
waived. Mortgagor hereby consents to the appointment of such receiver or receivers in the circumstances described in the immediately preceding sentence, waives any and all defenses to such appointment, agrees not to oppose any application therefor
by Mortgagee, and agrees that such appointment shall in no manner impair, prejudice or otherwise affect the rights of Mortgagee under this Article V. Nothing herein is to be construed to deprive

Mortgagee of any other right, remedy or privilege it may now or hereafter have under law to have a receiver appointed. Any money advanced by Mortgagee in connection with any such receivership
shall be a demand obligation owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee and shall bear interest, from the date of making such advancement until paid, at the Post-Default Rate. Any such receiver shall have all powers conferred by the court appointing such
receiver, which powers shall, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law include, without limitation, the right to enter upon and take immediate possession of the Mortgaged Properties or any part thereof, to exclude Mortgagor therefrom, to hold,
use, operate, manage and control such Mortgaged Properties, to make all such repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to the same as such receiver or Mortgagee may reasonably deem proper or expedient, to sell all of the
As-Extracted Collateral included in the same subject to the provisions of Article III hereof to demand and collect all of the other earnings, rents, issues, profits, proceeds and other sums due or to become due with respect to such Mortgaged
Properties, accounting for only the net earnings arising therefrom after charging against the receipts therefrom all fees, costs, expenses, charges, damages and losses incurred by reason thereof plus interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate without
any liability to Mortgagor in connection therewith which net earnings shall be turned over by such receiver to Mortgagee to be applied by Mortgagee to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 5.10.

 5.6. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagor shall not at any time have, invoke,
utilize or assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshaling of assets or Liens, the sale of property in the inverse order of alienation, the exemption of homesteads, the administration of estates of decedents, appraisement, moratorium,
valuation, stay, extension or redemption now or hereafter in force, and Mortgagor hereby waives the benefit of all such laws to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law. 

5.7. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagee shall also have the option to proceed with
foreclosure in satisfaction of any installments of the Secured Obligations which have not been paid when due either through the courts or by proceeding with foreclosure in satisfaction of the matured but unpaid portion of the Secured Obligations as
if under a full foreclosure, conducting the sale as herein provided and without declaring the entire principal balance and accrued interest and other Secured Obligations then due; such sale may be made subject to the unmatured portion of the Secured
Obligations, and any such sale shall not in any manner affect the unmatured portion of the Secured Obligations, but as to such unmatured portion of the Secured Obligations this Mortgage shall remain in full force and effect just as though no sale
had been made hereunder. It is further agreed that several sales may be made hereunder without exhausting the right of sale for any unmatured part of the Secured Obligations, it being the purpose hereof to provide for a foreclosure and sale of the
security for any matured portion of the Secured Obligations without exhausting the power to foreclose and sell the Mortgaged Properties for any subsequently maturing portion of the Secured Obligations. 

5.8. All rights, powers and remedies herein conferred are cumulative, and not exclusive, of (a) any and all other rights and
remedies herein conferred, (b) any and all rights, powers and remedies existing at law or in equity, and (c) any and all other rights, powers and remedies provided for in any other documents or instruments evidencing, securing or relating
to the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagee shall, in addition to the rights, powers and remedies 

  
 14 

 
herein conferred, be entitled after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to avail itself of all such other rights, powers and remedies as may now or hereafter exist at
law or in equity for the collection of and enforcement of the Secured Obligations and the enforcement of the warranties, representations, covenants, indemnities and other agreements contained in this Mortgage and the other documents and instruments
evidencing, securing or relating to the Secured Obligations and the foreclosure of the Liens and security interests created by this Mortgage. Each and every such right, power and remedy may be exercised from time to time after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by Mortgagee and the exercise of any such right, power or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise, at the same time or
thereafter, any other right, power or remedy. No delay or omission by Mortgagee, the sheriff or other official or person in the exercise of any right, power or remedy will impair any such right, power or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof or of
any other right, power or remedy then or thereafter existing. 
 5.9. All fees, costs and expenses (including without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, court costs, filing fees, and mortgage, transfer, stamp and other excise taxes, inspection fees, appraisers’ fees, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographers’
charges, publication, notice and advertising costs, postage, photocopies, telephone charges and costs of procuring all abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, title opinions, title insurance policies and similar title data and
assurances as Mortgagee may reasonably deem appropriate either to prosecute such suit or to evidence to bidders at the sales that may be had pursuant to such proceeding the condition of the title to or the value of the Mortgaged Properties,
trustee’s fees and expenses, sheriff’s fees and expenses, receiver’s fees and expenses, and fees and expenses of agents of Mortgagee, reasonable costs and expenses of defending, protecting and maintaining the Mortgaged Properties and
Mortgagee’s interest therein including reasonable repair and maintenance costs and expenses and reasonable costs and expenses of protecting and securing the Mortgaged Properties including insurance costs and all other fees, costs and expenses
provided for or authorized by applicable law), incurred by or on behalf of Mortgagee in protecting and enforcing its rights hereunder or incident to the enforcement of this Mortgage and the Liens and security interests created thereby, shall be an
obligation owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee payable upon demand by Mortgagee and shall bear interest at the Post-Default Rate until paid, and shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations and be obligations secured and evidenced by this
Mortgage. 
 5.10. The proceeds of any sale of the Mortgaged Properties or any part thereof made pursuant to this Article
V shall be applied as may be required by applicable law, or in the absence of any such requirements, as follows: 
 (a) First, to the payment of all fees, costs and expenses incident to the enforcement of this Mortgage and the Liens and security interests created hereby, as permitted by the terms of this Mortgage,
including without limitation, the fees, costs and expenses described in Section 5.9 hereof; 
 (b)
Second, to the payment or prepayment of the Secured Obligations as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement; and 

  
 15 

 (c) Third, the remainder, if any, shall be paid to Mortgagor or such other
person or persons as may be legally entitled thereto. 
 5.11. Neither Mortgagor, the Master General Partner, nor any other
person hereafter obligated for payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations shall be relieved of such obligation by reason of: (a) the failure of Mortgagee to comply with any request of Mortgagor, the Master General Partner or any
other Person so obligated to foreclose the Lien of this Mortgage or to enforce any provision hereunder or under the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement; (b) the release, regardless of consideration, of the Mortgaged Properties or any portion
thereof or interest therein or the addition of any other property to the Mortgaged Properties; (c) any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent owner of the Mortgaged Properties and Mortgagee extending, renewing, rearranging or in any
other way modifying the terms of this Mortgage without first having obtained the consent of, given notice to or paid any consideration to Mortgagor, the Master General Partner or such other Person, and in such event Mortgagor, the Master General
Partner and all such other Persons shall continue to be liable to make payment according to the terms of any such extension or modification agreement unless expressly released and discharged in writing by Mortgagee; or (d) by any other act or
occurrence prior to the Discharge Date or the Withdrawal Date. 
 5.12. Mortgagee may release, regardless of consideration, any
part of the Mortgaged Properties without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the Lien created in or evidenced by this Mortgage or its stature as a first and prior Lien in and to the Mortgaged Properties,
and without in any way releasing or diminishing the liability of any Person liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations. For payment of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee may resort to any other security therefor held by Mortgagee in such
order and manner as Mortgagee may elect and in accordance with the provisions of the Hedging Facility Documents. 
 5.13. In
addition to all rights and remedies under this Mortgage, at law and in equity, if any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and Mortgagee shall exercise any remedies under this Mortgage with respect to any portion of the Mortgaged
Properties (or Mortgagor shall transfer any Mortgaged Property “in lieu of” foreclosure) whereupon Mortgagor is divested of its title to any of the Mortgaged Properties, Mortgagee shall have the right to request that any operator of any
Mortgaged Property which is either Mortgagor or any Affiliate of Mortgagor to resign as operator under the joint operating agreement applicable thereto, and no later than 60 days after receipt by Mortgagor of any such request, Mortgagor shall resign
(or cause such other Person to resign) as operator of such Mortgaged Property. 
 5.14. THE
INDEMNITEES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION TAKEN,
FOR ANY LOSS SUSTAINED BY MORTGAGOR RESULTING FROM AN ASSERTION THAT
MORTGAGEE HAS RECEIVED FUNDS FROM THE PRODUCTION OF HYDROCARBONS CLAIMED BY
THIRD PERSONS OR ANY ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY INDEMNITEE IN
ADMINISTERING, MANAGING, OPERATING OR CONTROLLING THE MORTGAGED PROPERTIES INCLUDING SUCH LOSS WHICH MAY RESULT FROM THE
ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE UNLESS SUCH LOSS IS CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR
GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE SEEKING INDEMNITY (AS DETERMINED BY A
FINAL, NON APPEALABLE JUDGMENT OF A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION), A
MATERIAL BREACH OF THE 

  
 16 

 
MATERIAL OBLIGATIONS OF SUCH INDEMNITEE UNDER THIS MORTGAGE
OR ANY PROCEEDING THAT IS SOLELY AMONG INDEMNITEES. NO INDEMNITEE SHALL
BE OBLIGATED TO PERFORM OR DISCHARGE ANY OBLIGATION, DUTY OR LIABILITY
OF MORTGAGOR. MORTGAGOR SHALL AND DOES HEREBY AGREE TO INDEMNIFY EACH
INDEMNITEE FOR, AND TO HOLD EACH INDEMNITEE HARMLESS FROM, ANY AND
ALL LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE WHICH MAY OR MIGHT BE INCURRED BY
ANY INDEMNITEE BY REASON OF THIS MORTGAGE OR THE EXERCISE OF RIGHTS
OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER UNLESS SUCH LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE RESULTED FROM
THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE SEEKING INDEMNITY
(AS DETERMINED BY A FINAL, NON APPEALABLE JUDGMENT OF A COURT OF
COMPETENT JURISDICTION), A MATERIAL BREACH OF THE MATERIAL OBLIGATIONS OF SUCH
INDEMNITEE UNDER THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY PROCEEDING THAT IS SOLELY AMONG
INDEMNITEES. IF ANY INDEMNITEE SHALL MAKE ANY EXPENDITURE ON ACCOUNT OF
ANY SUCH LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE, THE AMOUNT THEREOF, INCLUDING COSTS,
EXPENSES AND REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES, SHALL BE A DEMAND OBLIGATION (WHICH
OBLIGATION MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY PROMISES TO PAY) OWING BY MORTGAGOR TO

PAID AT THE POST-DEFAULT RATE. MORTGAGOR HEREBY ASSENTS TO, RATIFIES
AND CONFIRMS ANY AND ALL ACTIONS OF EACH INDEMNITEE WITH RESPECT TO
THE MORTGAGED PROPERTIES TAKEN UNDER AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS
OF THIS MORTGAGE. THE LIABILITIES OF MORTGAGOR AS SET FORTH IN THIS
SECTION 5.14 SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS MORTGAGE. 

5.15. All rights, powers and remedies herein conferred shall be exercisable by Mortgagee to the extent not prohibited by applicable law,
and all waivers and relinquishments of rights and similar matters shall only be effective to the extent such waivers or relinquishments are not prohibited by applicable law. 
 5.16. Mortgagee will provide notice to Mortgagor of its exercise of remedies under Law or under the Hedging Facility Documents to the extent, and at the times, required by Law. In any case, Mortgagee will
provide prompt written notice to Mortgagor of its exercise of remedies; provided that the failure to provide such notice will not constitute a breach by Mortgagee of any of the Hedging Facility Documents and shall not in any way impair or affect the
validity or availability of the remedy being exercised. 
 ARTICLE VI. 

MATTER OF CONTRACT ONLY 
 6.1. Mortgagee and Mortgagor agree that this Mortgage and the other Hedging Facility Documents, prepared in connection with the Secured Obligations have been entered into by both parties with the
justifiable expectation that only matters of contract are involved between them, arrived at after arm’s length negotiations between parties of equal bargaining power and each of whom has been represented by counsel of its own choosing.
Mortgagee and Mortgagor agree that their dealings and matters relating to this Mortgage and the other Hedging Facility Documents will remain matters of contract only, and that any claim that either may have against the other arising out of such
dealings, this Mortgage or the other Hedging Facility Documents shall be a contract claim only for those damages allowed for breach of contract, such as possible deficiency after foreclosure, and not including any claim of breach of any so-called
covenant of 

  
 17 

 
good faith and fair dealing. Mortgagee and Mortgagor agree that their dealings and matters arising out of this Mortgage and the other Hedging Facility Documents shall not give rise to any tort
claim of “bad faith”, whether under statute, decision or as an alleged common law tort, and shall not give rise to any other tort claim of fiduciary obligation, or mental or emotional distress, and shall not give rise to any claim for
punitive damages.

hereby after its due date, Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived the right either to require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to regard as an Event of Default the failure to pay any other sums due which are secured
hereby. No exercise of the 

  
 19 

 
rights and powers herein granted and no delay or omission in the exercise of such rights and powers shall be held to exhaust the same or be construed as a waiver thereof, and every such right and

 (b) deliver to the Collateral Agent certificates evidencing the certificated Pledged Interests together with undated stock powers (or the equivalent documents for Issuers that are not corporations)
executed in blank in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 
 Additionally, the Grantor hereby authorizes the
Collateral Agent, its counsel or its representative to execute, deliver, file and/or record any financing statement, continuation statement or other document necessary or desirable (in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent) (i) to
create, preserve, perfect, or maintain the priority of the Security Interests; or (ii) to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights under this Agreement or any other Hedging Facility Document with respect to the Security

 (b) if the aggregate value of all Instruments and Chattel Paper held by the

(c) if requested by the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent any certificate of title, application for title or similar
evidence of ownership of any titled Equipment with an aggregate fair market value in excess of $100,000 and shall cause the Collateral Agent to be named as lienholder on that certificate of title, application for title or other evidence of
ownership; 

  
  

7 

 (d) if necessary or desirable in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent to perfect
or establish the priority of the Security Interests, stamp or otherwise mark the Records as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require in order to reflect the Security Interests; 

(e) for each Investment Account that (i) in the case of any Deposit Account (other than any Excluded Deposit Account) has a closing
balance as of any date on or after the Effective Date exceeding $250,000 or (ii) in the case of any other Investment Account, has a closing market value as of any date on or after the Effective Date exceeding $250,000, the Grantor shall cause
the institution with which the Investment Account is maintained to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent within 30 days of the date on which the closing balance or closing market value, as applicable, of the respective Investment Account first
exceeds $250,000, a “control agreement” in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, except that in no event shall the Grantor permit the sum of (x) the closing balance of all Deposit Accounts of the Grantor
(other than Excluded Deposit Accounts) not covered by such a “control agreement” and (y) the closing market value of all other Investment Accounts of the Grantor not covered by such a “control agreement” to exceed $1,000,000
in the aggregate as of any date. If any institution with which an Investment Account is maintained refuses to, or does not, enter into such a “control agreement” for an Investment Account for which a “control agreement” is
required by the terms of the preceding sentence of this Section 3.2(e), then the Grantor shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days of the date on which the closing balance or closing market value, as applicable, of the respective
Investment Account first exceeds $250,000) close such Investment Account and transfer all balances therein to another Investment Account meeting the requirements of this Section 3.2(e); and 

(f) furnish to the Collateral Agent within 30 Business Days after the Grantor becomes aware of any Commercial Tort Claim of the Grantor
not previously described on Schedule 4.12, a description in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent of that Commercial Tort Claim (other than Commercial Tort Claims the aggregate amount of which for the Grantor
does not exceed $500,000) and upon the delivery of that description to the Collateral Agent, Schedule 4.12 will be deemed amended to include that Commercial Tort Claim. 

3.3 Further Assurances. The Grantor shall, from time to time, at its sole expense, promptly execute, deliver, file and record all
further agreements, assignments, instruments, documents and certificates, obtain any and all governmental approvals and consents that it can obtain using commercially reasonable efforts, and take all further action that may be necessary, or that the
Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to create, preserve, perfect, confirm, maintain the priority of or validate the Security Interests or to enable the Collateral Agent to obtain the full benefits of the Security Documents, or to
enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies thereunder with respect to any of such Collateral.

“control” (within the meaning of Sections 9-104 or 9-106 of the UCC, as applicable) over, or any other interest in or claim against, any such Investment Account. 
 4.12 Commercial Tort Claims. Schedule 4.12 lists and describes all Commercial Tort Claims (with specific case caption or descriptions per Official Code Comment 5 to Section 9-108
of the UCC) of the Grantor in existence on the Effective Date. Failure to list a Commercial Tort Claim on Schedule 4.12 is not intended to and will not (i) impair the rights of the Grantor with respect to any third Person or
(ii) limit the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to that claim. 
 4.13 Equity Interests. Schedule
4.13 sets forth, as of the Effective Date, with respect to each Person that is an Issuer, (i) the name of that Person, (ii) the type of entity of that Person, (iii) its jurisdiction of organization, (iv) a description of the
Pledged Interests issued by such Person, including the number issued, (v) if such Pledged Interests are represented by certificates, the number(s) of such certificates issued to the owner thereof, and (vi) the percentage of those Pledged
Interests that are owned by the Grantor. All of the Pledged Interests identified on Schedule 4.13 have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable; and the Grantor is the beneficial and, except as set forth in
Schedule 4.13, record owner of, and has good title to, such Pledged Interests that are pledged by it hereunder, free of any and all Liens except the Security Interests and Permitted Liens. Schedule 4.13 also sets forth the information
in clauses (i) through (vi) of this Section 4.13 with respect to all Equity Interests held by the Grantor that constitutes Excluded Property. 

  
  

10 

 4.14 Instruments and Chattel Paper. The Grantor has delivered to the
Collateral Agent all Collateral constituting Instruments and Chattel Paper to the extent required by Sections 3.1 and 3.2. No Collateral constituting Chattel Paper or Instruments contains any statement therein to the effect that such
Collateral has been assigned to an identified party other than the Collateral Agent, and the grant of a security interest in such Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent hereunder does not violate the rights of any other Person as a secured
party. 
 4.15 Patents and Trademarks. Schedule 4.15 sets forth, as of the Effective Date,
(a) each patent and trademark owned by the Grantor that is registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, (b) each application filed by the Grantor for registration with the United States Patent and Trademark Office of any
patent or trademark that has not been so registered, and (c) each patent license and trademark license owned by the Grantor. 
 4.16 Governmental Obligors. As of the Effective Date, none of the Account Debtors on the Grantor’s Accounts, Chattel Paper or Payment Intangibles is a Governmental Authority. 

ARTICLE V 

COVENANTS 

In furtherance of the grant of the Security Interest pursuant to Article II, the Grantor agrees with the Collateral Agent that,
from and after the Effective Date until the Discharge Date or the Withdrawal Date: 
 5.1 Covenants in the Secured Hedging
Facility Agreement. The Grantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, each action that is required to be taken or not taken by the Grantor, as the case may be, pursuant to the covenants in the Secured Hedging Facility
Agreement and giving effect to the applicable grace periods and cure periods provided for in the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement. 
 5.2 Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation. 

(a) Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, the Grantor shall not file (or authorize or permit the filing of or suffer
to be on file) in any jurisdiction any financing statement or similar document with respect to the Collateral in which the Collateral Agent is not named as the sole secured party except for financing statements evidencing Permitted Liens.

 (b) The Grantor shall maintain the Security Interest created by this Agreement (subject to any limitations with respect to
perfection as set forth in the Hedging Facility Documents) as a perfected security interest, subject to the qualifications, and, as applicable, having at least the priority described in Section 4.6 and shall defend such Security Interest
against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever except for Permitted Liens and subject to the rights of the Grantor under the Hedging Facility Documents to dispose of Collateral. 

  
  

11 

 5.3 Pledged Interests. 

(a) If the Grantor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any stock certificate or other instrument (including, without
limitation, any certificate or instrument representing a dividend or a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate or instrument issued in connection with any reorganization), option or
rights in respect of the Pledged Interests of any Issuer which would constitute Collateral, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares (or such other interests) of the Pledged Interests, or
otherwise in respect thereof, the Grantor shall accept the same as the agent of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, hold the same in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and deliver the same forthwith to the
Collateral Agent in the exact form received, duly indorsed by the Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required, together with an undated stock power or other equivalent instrument of transfer acceptable to the Collateral Agent covering such
certificate or instrument duly executed in blank by the Grantor, to be held by the Collateral Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as additional collateral security for the Secured Obligations. 

(b) In the event the Grantor acquires any Equity Interests not constituting Excluded Property, the Grantor shall deliver to the
Collateral Agent a duly executed amendment to this Agreement, in the form of Annex 1 hereto (a “Security Agreement Supplement”) pursuant to which the Grantor will pledge such additional Equity Interests as Collateral. The
Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to attach each Security Agreement Supplement delivered hereunder to this Agreement and agrees that all additional Equity Interests owned by it set forth in such Security Agreement Supplements shall be
considered to be part of the Collateral. 
 (c) Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, the Grantor will not,
except as expressly permitted by the Hedging Facility Documents, (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any Issuer to issue any Equity Interests of any nature or to issue any other securities or interests convertible into or
granting the right to purchase or exchange for any Equity Interests of any nature of any Issuer, except as could not reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties under the Hedging Facility Documents, (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Pledged Interests or Proceeds thereof, (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien
except for Permitted Liens or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Pledged Interests or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for the Security Interests or (iv) enter into any agreement or
undertaking restricting the right or ability of the Grantor or the Collateral Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged Interests or Proceeds thereof. 
 (d) Except as expressly permitted in the Hedging Facility Documents, (i) the Pledged Interests will at all times constitute not less than 100% of the Equity Interests of the Issuer thereof owned by
the Grantor and (ii) the Grantor will not permit any Issuer of any of the Pledged Interests to issue any new shares (or other interests) of any class of Equity Interests of such Issuer without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent
unless such additional Equity Interests become Pledged Equity Interests in accordance with this Agreement. 

  
  

12 

 5.4 Special Provisions Relating to Certain Collateral. 

(a) Assigned Agreements. The Grantor acknowledges that the Secured Parties have no responsibility to perform obligations under any
contract or other agreement constituting part of the Collateral. The exercise by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any of the rights and remedies under this Agreement or any of the Hedging Facility Documents will not release The
Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under those agreements. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any duty, obligation or liability under those agreements, any Governmental Approvals included in the Collateral or
otherwise in respect of the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or is obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of The Grantor under agreements 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. 
 (b) Intellectual Property. 

(i) Solely to the extent necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under
Section 7.1 at any time the Collateral Agent is lawfully entitled to do so and is permitted to do so under Section 7.1, and for no other purpose, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Grantor hereby
grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent the Grantor has the right to do so, an irrevocable (until the Discharge Date or the Withdrawal Date), nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantor) to
use, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by that the Grantor, wherever 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, but this grant will not apply to the extent it would cause the termination, invalidation, voiding, cancellation, degradation or abandonment of the Grantor’s rights in
such Intellectual Property. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the
provisions of Section 7.6 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement that limit the rights of the Grantor to dispose of their property, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Grantor may exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license,
sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the
request of the Grantor and at the Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form reasonably requested by the Grantor, 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 the Discharge Date or the Withdrawal Date and the Grantor’s request, the Collateral Agent shall grant back to the
Grantor the license granted pursuant to clause (i) immediately above and such license, and all sublicenses granted by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant thereto, shall be terminated as of the Discharge Date or the Withdrawal Date.
The exercise of rights and remedies under Section 6.1 by the Collateral Agent will not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Grantor in accordance with the first sentence of this
clause (ii). 

  
  

13 

 5.5 Prohibition of Certain Changes. The Grantor shall not (a) change its name as
it appears in official filings in the state of its incorporation or organization, (b) change its chief executive office, principal place of business, mailing address, corporate offices or warehouses or locations at which Collateral is held or
stored (other than locations where the Grantor is a lessee with respect to any oil and gas lease), or the location of its records concerning the Collateral as set forth herein, (c) change the type of entity that it is, (d) change its
organization identification number, if any, issued by its state of incorporation or other organization, or (e) change its state of incorporation or organization, in each case, unless the Collateral Agent shall have received at least five
Business Days prior written notice of such change and any reasonable action requested by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith has been, or will be contemporaneously therewith, completed or taken (including any action to continue the
perfection of any Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in any Collateral), provided that, any new location shall be in the United States or Canada. The Grantor shall not change its fiscal year. Grantor shall not
change the location of any Collateral with an aggregate value in excess of $100,000 for such change in location if such change would cause the Security Interest in that Collateral to lapse or cease to be perfected. 

5.6 Collateral in Possession of Bailee. If any Collateral of the Grantor with an aggregate value greater than $100,000 is in the
possession or control of any single warehouseman, bailee or agent, the Grantor shall notify the Collateral Agent of that circumstance and, if requested by the Collateral Agent, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain an
acknowledgment from that warehouseman, bailee or agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, that the warehouseman, bailee or agent holds such Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall act upon
the instructions of the Collateral Agent without the further consent of the Grantor. 
 5.7 [Reserved.]. 

5.8 Notice of Governmental Obligors. In the event any Account Debtor on the Grantor’s Accounts, Chattel Paper or Payment
Intangibles is a Governmental Authority, the Grantor will deliver prompt written notice thereof to the Collateral Agent. 

ARTICLE VI 

VOTING RIGHTS AND DIVIDENDS 
 6.1 Voting Rights. 
 (a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, and until notice is provided pursuant to Section 6.1(b), the Grantor may vote any and all of the Equity Interests owned by it and give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect of those Equity Interests, but the Grantor
shall not vote or give any consent, waiver or ratification or take any other action that would violate any of the terms of any Hedging Facility Document, or materially impair the rights of the Collateral Agent in respect of such Equity Interests.

  
  

14 

 (b) Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and
(ii) delivery of written notice by the Collateral Agent to the Grantor of its intent to exercise any rights pertaining to the Pledged Interests, all rights of the Grantor in its capacity as the holder of such Equity Interests to vote and to
give consents, waivers and ratifications will cease in favor of, and be exercisable by, the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may thereafter exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges
or options pertaining to such Pledged Interests as if it were the absolute owner thereof, all without liability except to account for Property actually received by it, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to the Grantor to exercise any such
right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. In order to effect this transfer of rights to the Collateral Agent, the Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a proxy in a
form reasonably approved by the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of the circumstances described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, date and present
the proxy to the issuer of such Equity Interests. Without limiting the effect of the previous sentence, the Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote all or any part of the Pledged Interests owned by the Grantor and
to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged Interests would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, calling special
meetings of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged Interests on the record
books of the Issuer thereof) by any other Person (including the Issuer of such Pledged Securities or any officer or agent thereof) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Such proxy shall automatically terminate if
such Event of Default has been cured, remedied, or waived by the Hedge Providers or on the Discharge Date or the Withdrawal Date, whichever occurs first. 
 (c) The Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Interests (and each Issuer party hereto hereby agrees) to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral
Agent in writing that (A) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from the Grantor, and the Grantor
agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Interests directly to the Collateral Agent. Such instruction
shall automatically terminate if such Event of Default has been cured, remedied, or waived by the Hedge Providers or on the Discharge Date or the Withdrawal Date, whichever occurs first. 

(d) After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if the Issuer of any Pledged Interests is the subject of
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, custodianship or other proceedings under the supervision of any Governmental Authority, then, until such Event of Default has been cured, remedied, or waived by the Hedge Providers or on the Discharge Date or
the Withdrawal Date, whichever occurs first, all rights of the Grantor in respect thereof to exercise the voting and other consensual rights that the Grantor would otherwise be entitled to exercise with respect to the Pledged Interests issued by
such Issuer shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent who shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to exercise
any such voting or other consensual rights and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. 

  
  

15 

 6.2 Dividends. 

(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, until the Collateral Agent elects to exercise its rights under
Section 6.2(b), (i) the Grantor may retain any cash dividends and other cash distributions paid to it and (ii) the Grantor shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, segregated from the other property or funds
of the Grantor, to the extent each is Collateral, any Instruments, securities, Chattel Paper, property or proceeds and products received, receivable or otherwise distributed to it in respect of, or in exchange for, any Collateral and shall promptly
deliver the property received by it (except electronic chattel paper, documents or letters of credit and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.2(a)) in the same form as received (with any necessary endorsement) to the
Collateral Agent to be held as Collateral. 
 (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (that
has not been waived by the Hedge Provider Majority), the Collateral Agent may elect to receive and hold as Collateral cash dividends, payments, distributions or other proceeds with respect to any of the Collateral (and upon that election the right
of the Grantor to receive and hold cash dividends and distributions will terminate) and shall thereupon have the sole right to receive any cash dividends, payments, distributions and other proceeds (and may apply them to payment of the Secured
Obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and Section 3.9 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement) until all Events of Default have been cured, remedied, or waived by the Hedge Providers. If Grantor receives any
dividends or distributions in violation of the provisions of this Section 6.2(b), it shall hold those dividends and distributions, to the extent allowable under applicable Law, in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, segregated
from other funds of the Grantor, and shall forthwith pay them over to the Collateral Agent as Collateral in the same form as received (with any necessary endorsement). 
 ARTICLE VII 
 REMEDIES 

7.1 Events of Default, Etc. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing: 

(a) the Collateral Agent may exercise the rights and remedies with respect to this Agreement as more particularly provided herein or in
the other Hedging Facility Documents; 
 (b) The Grantor shall, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, assemble
Collateral owned by it (and not otherwise in the possession of the Collateral Agent) at such place or places, reasonably convenient to the Collateral Agent and the Grantor, designated in such request, including the premises of the Grantor;

 (c) the Collateral Agent may (but will not be obligated to), without notice to the Grantor and at such times as the
Collateral Agent in its sole discretion may determine, exercise any or all of the rights of the Grantor in, to and under, or in any way connected to the Collateral; 

  
  

16 

 (d) the Collateral Agent may (but will not be obligated to) make any reasonable compromise
or settlement it deems desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may (but will 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 Collateral Agent may (but will not be obligated to), in its name or in the name of the Grantor 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; 
 (f) the Collateral Agent may (but will not be obligated to), upon 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Grantor of the time and place, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any
part of the Collateral owned by that the Grantor, at such place or places as the Collateral Agent deems best, and for cash or for credit or for credit bid of Secured Obligations (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 above or by applicable Law and cannot be waived). If Collateral Agent is directed to credit bid
the Secured Obligations at any such sale or other disposition as set forth in Section 8.2 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement, then all Hedge Providers will be bound by that direction. If the Collateral Agent is not so directed to credit
bid the Secured Obligations, then any Secured Party may credit bid the Secured Obligations owing to it at that sale or other disposition. The Collateral 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 the Grantor, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law. The Collateral 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 Collateral Agent, at the Collateral 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 Collateral Agent deems appropriate. The Collateral Agent may, in its sole 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 Collateral Agent may 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 Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale pursuant to any such notice. In case of any sale of
all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the full selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party
will 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; provided that if the Event of
Default has been cured, remedied or waived during that time period such Collateral will not be sold. All cash proceeds of any such sale, and any other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral

  
  

17 

 
Agent, be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for or applied then or at any time thereafter, in whole or in part, by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to the
payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 7.6; 
 (g) upon request of the Collateral
Agent, the Grantor shall promptly notify (and the Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to so notify) each Account Debtor in respect of any Accounts or Instruments of that the Grantor that such Collateral has been assigned to the Collateral
Agent hereunder, and that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral are to be made directly to the Collateral Agent; 
 (h) the Collateral Agent may, but will not be obligated to, render unusable any of the Collateral; 
 (i) the Collateral Agent may (but will not be obligated to) deliver a notice of exclusive control to a Bank, Commodity Intermediary or Securities Intermediary pursuant to any control agreement then in
effect; and 
 (j) the Collateral Agent will have, and in its discretion may exercise, all of the rights, remedies, powers and
privileges with respect to the Collateral of a secured creditor under the UCC (whether or not the UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights, remedies, powers and privileges are asserted) and such additional rights, remedies, powers and
privileges to which a secured creditor is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights, remedies, powers or privileges under this Agreement or the Collateral may be asserted, including the right, to the maximum extent
permitted by Law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were the sole and absolute owner of the Collateral (and the Grantor shall take all such action as reasonably
requested by the Collateral Agent to give effect to that right). 
 The Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of each
collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 7.1, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any
way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, in accordance with Section 7.6, and only
after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of Law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615 of the UCC, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to
the Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. Each and
every method of disposition of the Collateral described in this Agreement shall constitute disposition in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent may appoint any Person as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any
sale or transfer of the Collateral. 
 The Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the
Securities Act, as amended, and applicable state securities Laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, subject to the notice provision as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section 7.1, with respect to any sale of all or any part
of the Collateral constituting a security (as such term is defined in the 

  
  

18 

 
Securities Act), 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. The Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree
that any such private sale will not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner by reason of such less favorable terms and that the Collateral Agent will 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 the Grantor or the Issuer thereof to register it for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities Laws, even if such grantor or issuer would agree to
do so. The Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may reasonably be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Interests pursuant to this Section 7.1 valid
and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Laws. The Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7.1 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 7.1 shall be specifically
enforceable against the Grantor, and the Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants. 
 7.2 Collections on Accounts, Etc. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Grantor shall notify the Account
Debtors that the applicable Accounts, Chattel Paper and Payment Intangibles have been assigned to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Collateral
Agent. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may in its own name or in the name of others communicate with the Account Debtors to verify with them to its satisfaction the existence,
amount and terms of any Accounts, Chattel Paper or Payment Intangibles. 
 7.3 Proceeds. If required by the Collateral
Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper and Payment Intangibles, when collected or received by the Grantor, and any other cash or non-cash
Proceeds received by the Grantor upon the sale or other disposition of any Collateral, shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by the Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by the Grantor to the
Collateral Agent if required, in a special collateral account maintained by the Collateral Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties only, as hereinafter provided, and, until so turned over,
shall be held by the Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of any the Grantor. Each deposit of any such Proceeds shall be accompanied by a report identifying in
reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. All Proceeds (including, without limitation, Proceeds constituting collections of Accounts, Chattel Paper, Instruments) while held by the Collateral Agent (or by the
Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties) shall continue to be collateral security for all of the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in this
Article VII. At such intervals as may 

  
  

19 

 
be agreed upon by the Grantor and the Collateral Agent, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Collateral Agent’s election, the Collateral Agent
shall apply all or any part of the funds on deposit in said special collateral account on account of the Secured Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent may elect, and any part of such funds that the Collateral Agent elects not so to apply
and deems not required as collateral security for the Secured Obligations shall be paid over from time to time by the Collateral Agent to the Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. 

7.4 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral by virtue of the exercise of
remedies under this Article VII are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such exercise and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent will retain all rights and remedies under the Hedging Facility
Documents and the Grantor will remain liable with respect to any deficiency and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency. 

7.5 Private Sale. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties will not incur any 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 7.1 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Subject to and without limitation of the preceding sentence, the Grantor hereby waives
any claims against the Collateral 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 Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree. The Grantor further acknowledges that any offer to sell any
Collateral consisting of Equity Interests that has been (a) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such an offer
may be so advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act), or (b) made privately in the manner described above to not less than 15 bona fide offerees will be deemed to involve a “public disposition” for the purposes of
Section 9-610(c) of the UCC (or any successor or similar, applicable statutory provision) as then in effect in the State of New York, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act, and
that the Collateral Agent or one or more of the other Secured Parties may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such Equity Interests. 
 7.6 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 to this
Article VII, and any other cash at the time held by the Collateral Agent under this Article VII, shall be applied by the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 3.9 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement. 

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

  
  

20 

 7.8 Preservation of Rights. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party is
required to take any steps to preserve any rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral. 
 7.9 Rights of Secured
Parties. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may (but is not obligated to) pay or secure payment of any overdue tax or other overdue claim (except for taxes or claims (a) being contested in good faith by the Grantor and with
respect to which any reserves required by GAAP are established by the Grantor on its books and (b) of which the failure to pay or perform could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect) that may be secured by or result
in a Lien on any Collateral. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may (but is not obligated to) do any other thing that it reasonably believes is necessary or desirable (i) to preserve, protect or maintain the Collateral if the
Grantor is failing to do so in breach of this or any other Hedging Facility Document or (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to enhance the value of the Collateral. The Grantor shall promptly reimburse the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any reasonable payment or documented expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and documented expenses) that the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party incurs pursuant to this
Section 7.9. 
 7.10 Registration of Equity Interests. If the Collateral Agent shall determine to exercise
the right to sell any or all of the Pledged Interests under this Article VII, and if in the opinion of the Collateral Agent it is necessary or advisable to have the Pledged Interests, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the
provisions of the Securities Act, as amended, the Grantor will (a) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the relevant Issuer to execute and deliver, and to cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to execute and deliver, all
such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, necessary or advisable to register the Pledged Interests, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of
the Securities Act, and (b) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public offering of the
Pledged Interests, or that portion thereof to be sold, and make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus that, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto. The Grantor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the relevant Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” Laws of any
and all jurisdictions that the Collateral Agent designates and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act. 
 7.11 Notice of Remedies. The Collateral Agent will provide notice to the Grantor of its exercise of
remedies under Law or under the Hedging Facility Documents to the extent, and at the times, required by Law. In any case, the Collateral Agent will provide prompt written notice to the Grantor of its exercise of remedies; provided that the failure
to provide such notice will not constitute a breach by the Collateral Agent of any of the Hedging Facility Documents and shall not in any way impair or affect the validity or availability of the remedy being exercised.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 THE COLLATERAL AGENT 
 8.1 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as
Attorney-in-Fact, Etc. 
 (a) The Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or
agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Grantor and in the name of the Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying
out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all reasonably appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of the Grantor, without notice to or assent by the Grantor, to do any or all of the following: 

(i) unless being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on
or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof; 

(ii) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Article VII, any endorsements, assignments or other
instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and 
 (iii) (A) direct any party liable
for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (B) take possession of and indorse and collect any
checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Account, Instrument, General Intangible, Chattel Paper or Payment Intangible or with respect to any other Collateral, and to file any claim or to take
any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any all such moneys due under any Account, Instrument or General Intangible or with respect to any
other Collateral whenever payable; (C) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral;
(D) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral;
(E) receive, change the address for delivery, open and dispose of mail addressed to Grantor, and to execute, assign and indorse negotiable and other instruments for the payment of money, documents of title or other evidences of payment,
shipment or storage for any form of Collateral on behalf of and in the name of Grantor; (F) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any
portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (G) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (H) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or
proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or 

  
  

22 

 
releases as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (I) assign any patent or trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such trademark pertains), throughout the world
for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (J) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the
Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and the Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things
that the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and
effectively as the Grantor might do. 
 Anything in this Section 8.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 8.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

(b) After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its
agreements contained herein within the applicable grace periods, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement. 

(c) The expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 8.1,
together with interest thereon at a rate of interest equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum lawful rate or (ii) any rate of interest that may accrue after an Event of Default pursuant to the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement or any other
Hedging Facility Document. 
 (d) The Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by
virtue and in compliance hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

 8.2 Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account and shall be deemed to
have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which comparable secured parties accord comparable collateral. Neither the
Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any
obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of the Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof (except as provided herein). The powers conferred
on the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any other
Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be 

  
  

23 

 
accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible
to the Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Collateral Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to make or give any
presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other notice or demand in connection with any Collateral or the Secured Obligations, or to take
any steps necessary to preserve any rights against the Grantor or other Person or ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not it has or
is deemed to have knowledge of such matters. The Grantor, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waives any right of marshaling in respect of any and all Collateral, and waives any right to require the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party
to proceed against the Grantor or other Person, exhaust any Collateral or enforce any other remedy which the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party now has or may hereafter have against the Grantor or other Person. 

8.3 Authority of Collateral Agent. The Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under
this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out
of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as
between the Collateral Agent and the Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and the Grantor shall not be under any
obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority. 
 ARTICLE IX 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 9.1 Waivers of Rights Inhibiting Enforcement. The Grantor waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law: 
 (a) any rights or privileges that it may acquire under the UCC or any other applicable law (and further agrees not to assert any such rights); 

(b) any claim that, as to any part of the Collateral, a public sale, should the Collateral Agent elect so to proceed, is, in and of
itself, not a commercially reasonable method of sale for the Collateral; 
 (c) except as otherwise provided in this Agreement
or the other Hedging Facility Documents, ALL LEGAL RIGHTS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE REQUIRE THE COLLATERAL AGENT TO ENFORCE ITS RIGHTS BY JUDICIAL PROCESS OR JUDICIAL HEARING, NOTICE OF JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE COLLATERAL 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 GRANTOR 

  
  

24 

 
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 COLLATERAL AGENT’S RIGHTS HEREUNDER; 
 (d) all rights of redemption, appraisement,
valuation, stay, extension and moratorium; 
 (e) 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 Collateral 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; 

(f) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by any Secured Party, even though that election of remedies, such as a
nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Grantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement; 
 (g) all rights and defenses that the Grantor may have because the Secured Obligations are secured by real property. This means, among other things: 

(i) The Secured Parties may collect from the Grantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral
pledged by the Grantor; and 
 (ii) If any Collateral Agent forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by
the Grantor, the amount of the Secured Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and 

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Grantor may have because the Secured Obligations are
secured by real property. 
 9.2 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure on the part of any Secured Party or any of
its agents to exercise, no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or remedy hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise by any Secured Party or any of its agents of any right,
power or remedy hereunder will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies in this Agreement or in any other Hedging Facility Document expressly provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies that any Secured Party would otherwise have, including, without limitation, any rights of set-off. No notice to or demand on the Grantor in any case will entitle the Grantor to any other
or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Secured Party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand, except as required by this Agreement. 

  
  

25 

 9.3 Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices, requests, demands or
other communications to or upon the respective parties hereto must be sent or delivered by mail, e-mail, telecopy or courier service and all such notices and communications will be effective when received. All notices and other communications must
be in writing and addressed to such party as follows: 
 (a) in the case of the Grantor or the Collateral Agent, the address
provided in the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement; and 
 (b) in the case of any other Secured Party, the address specified by
such Secured Party in writing to the Collateral Agent and the Grantor; 
 or in any case at such other address as any of the Persons listed
above may hereafter notify the others in writing. 
 9.4 Payment of Expenses, Indemnities, Etc. To the extent and at such
times the Grantor would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.6 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement: 
 (a) The
Grantor agrees to pay or promptly reimburse the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party for all advances, charges, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, all costs and expenses of holding, preparing for sale and selling, collecting
or otherwise realizing upon the Collateral and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, documented legal expenses and court costs) incurred by any Secured Party in connection with the exercise of its respective rights and remedies hereunder, including,
without limitation, any advances, charges, costs and expenses that may be incurred in any effort to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or any obligation of the Grantor in respect of the Collateral or in connection with (i) the
preservation of the Lien of, or the rights of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or attempted sale, lease, disposition, exchange, collection, compromise, settlement or other realization in
respect of, or care of, the Collateral, including all such costs and expenses incurred in any bankruptcy, reorganization, workout or other similar proceeding, or (iii) enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement. 

(b) Without duplication of Section 9.4(a), the Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable
attorneys’ fees, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes that may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in
connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) incurred because of, incident to, or with respect to, the Collateral (including, without limitation, any exercise of rights or remedies in connection therewith) or the
execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements have resulted from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party (as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), (ii) a material
breach of the material obligations of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party under this Agreement or (iii) any proceeding that is solely among Secured Parties. 

  
  

26 

 9.5 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor
consent to any departure by the Grantor therefrom, will in any event be effective unless the same is in writing and signed by the Grantor and the Collateral Agent acting with the written consent of a Hedge Provider Majority (or such other percentage
of Hedge Providers as required by Section 10.1 of the Secured Hedging Facility Agreement). Any such waiver or consent will be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 

9.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted
assigns of the Grantor and the Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties, and each holder of any of the Secured Obligations, but the Grantor shall not assign or transfer its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral
Agent. 
 9.7 Survival, Etc. The obligations of the parties under Section 9.4 shall survive the Discharge
Date or the Withdrawal Date. The representations and warranties of the Grantor set out in this Agreement or contained in any documents delivered to any Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement will survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement. 
 9.8 Limitation of Liability. NO SECURED PARTY WILL HAVE LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO, AND THE GRANTOR HEREBY
WAIVES TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, RELEASES AND AGREES NOT TO SUE FOR: 
 (a) ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE SUSTAINED BY THE GRANTOR,
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 LAWFUL EXERCISE OF ANY LAWFUL RIGHT OR REMEDY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT EXCEPT
FOR ANY SUCH LOSS, DAMAGE, DEPRECIATION OR DIMINUTION TO THE EXTENT RESULTING FROM ACTS OR OMISSIONS ON THE PART OF SUCH SECURED PARTY CONSTITUTING WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR MATERIAL BREACH OF ANY OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT (AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION); OR 
 (b) ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES SUFFERED BY THE GRANTOR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIM RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. 

9.9 [Reserved.]. 
 9.10 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the
remaining provisions contained herein will not be affected or impaired thereby. 
 9.11 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of may be delivered in original, facsimile or other electronic (e.g., “.pdf”) form and all of which taken together are
deemed one and the same agreement. This Agreement will become effective at such time as the Collateral Agent receives counterparts hereof signed by all of the intended parties hereto. 

  
  

27

(b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER HEDGING FACILITY DOCUMENT MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW) IN RESPECT OF ITS

 Section 3.4
Offsetting Management Services 
 Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, the Company agrees that the
Manager may, at any time, enter into management services agreements with any one or more of the Subsidiaries of the Company (“Offsetting Management Services Agreement”), including by assignment thereof, relating to the
performance by the Manager of management services for such Subsidiaries of the Company that may or may not be similar to Services to be provided hereunder (“Offsetting Management Services”); provided, that such
Offsetting Management Services Agreement shall be designated as such therein; provided, further, that any Offsetting Management Services provided to a Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to an Offsetting Management Services Agreement shall not
be deemed to be Services provided hereunder. Any fee to be paid pursuant to such an Offsetting Management Services Agreement (“Offsetting Management Fee”) shall be paid directly by the relevant Subsidiary of the Company to
the Manager and shall not be deemed an obligation of the Company. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in any Offsetting Management Services Agreement, the Parties hereto agree that the aggregate amount of all Offsetting Management Fees to
be paid by all of the Subsidiaries of the Company with respect to any Fiscal Quarter shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Management Fee calculated with respect to such Fiscal Quarter; provided, that if the aggregate amount of all
Offsetting Management Fees to be paid by all of the Subsidiaries of the Company with respect to any Fiscal Quarter exceed the aggregate amount of Management Fee calculated with respect to such Fiscal Quarter, then the Manager agrees that it shall
reduce, on a pro rata basis, the Offsetting Management Fees to be paid by each of the Subsidiaries of the Company under each of the Offsetting Management Agreements, determined by reference to the Adjusted Net Assets of each of the
Subsidiaries of the Company, until the aggregate amount of all Offsetting Management Fees to be paid by all of the Subsidiaries of the Company with respect to any Fiscal Quarter does not exceed the aggregate amount of Management Fee calculated with
respect to such Fiscal Quarter, and provided further that beginning for the 2007 Fiscal Year if the aggregate amount of all Offsetting Management Fees to be paid by all of the Subsidiaries of the Company with respect to any Fiscal Year exceed
the Limitation Amount with respect to such Fiscal Year, then the Manager agrees that it shall reduce, on a pro rota basis, the Offsetting Management Fees to be paid by each of the Subsidiaries of the Company under each of the Offsetting
Management Agreements, determined by reference to the Adjusted Net Assets of each of the Subsidiaries of the Company, until the aggregate amount of all Offsetting Management Fees to be paid by all of the Subsidiaries of the Company with respect to
any Fiscal Year does not exceed the Limitation Amount with respect to such Fiscal Year. If following the close of any Fiscal Year it is determined that the amount of Offsetting Management Fees paid to the Manager with respect to such Fiscal Year
exceeded the Limitation Amount, such excess shall be promptly returned by the Manager to the Subsidiaries in the same proportion that the Offsetting Management Fees would have been reduced pursuant to the provisions of this Section. Each such

  
 10 

 
Offsetting Management Services Agreement shall be terminable, without penalty (including a termination fee), by the relevant Subsidiary of the Company upon 30 days prior written notice. Entry
into an Offsetting Management Services Agreement by any Subsidiary of the Company shall not be subject to authorization and approval of the Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee. 

Section 3.5 Change of Services 
 (a) The Company and the Manager shall have the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the Services provided by the Manager and such changes shall in no way otherwise affect the
rights or obligations of any Party hereunder. 
 (b) Any change in the Services shall be authorized in writing and evidenced by
an amendment to this Agreement, as provided in Section 13.9 hereof. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the provisions of this Agreement shall apply to all changes in the Services. 
 Section 3.6 Transaction Services 
 Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary
herein, the Company agrees that the Manager may, at any time, enter into transaction services agreements with one or more of its Subsidiaries (“Transaction Services Agreements”) relating to the performance by the Manager of
certain transaction-related services that are customarily performed by a third-party investment banking firm or similar financial advisor (other than an entity that would be required to be registered with a regulators such as a broker/dealer or
registered investment adviser), which may or may not be similar to Services to be provided hereunder, in connection with the acquisition of target businesses by the Company or the Company’s Subsidiaries or dispositions of Subsidiaries of the
Company or any property or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries (“Transaction Services”); provided, that such Transaction Services Agreement shall be designated as such therein; provided, further, that any
Transaction Services provided to the Company’s Subsidiaries pursuant to Transaction Services Agreements shall not be deemed to be Services provided hereunder; provided, further that the Manager shall not advise the Company or the
Company’s Subsidiaries as to whether or not such acquisitions or dispositions shall be structured as asset acquisitions/dispositions or the acquisition/disposition of securities or otherwise and all such determinations will be made by the
Company of the Company’s Subsidiaries, as the case may be, based on legal, tax and other considerations and the advice of the Company’s accounting, legal and other advisors. The Manager shall contract for the performance of such
Transaction Services on market terms and conditions. Entry into a Transaction Services Agreement shall be subject to the authorization and approval of the Company’s nominating and corporate governance committee, and the Company’s
nominating and corporate governance committee shall have the right to take whatever measures they deem prudent to confirm the market terms of any Transaction Services Agreement. Any fee to be paid pursuant to a Transaction Services Agreement (the
“Transaction Fee”) shall be paid by the relevant Subsidiary of the Company that is a party to the corresponding Transaction Services Agreement directly to the Manager. Transaction Fees are not Offsetting Management Fees and
shall not have the effect of Offsetting Management Fees as provided herein. Any Transaction Services Agreement may also provide for the reimbursement of costs and expenses of the Manager in the performance of any Transaction Services, including
costs and expenses referenced in Section 7.3(b)(iii) hereof.

 Section 7.2 Management Fee 
 (a) Obligation. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.2, for the term of this Agreement, (i) the MSA Administrator shall calculate the fee payable to the
Manager in accordance with this Section 7.2 (the “Management Fee”), and the components thereof, in accordance with Section 7.2(b) hereof and (ii) the Company shall pay the Management Fee to the Manager in
accordance with Section 7.2(d) hereof. 

  
 14 

 (b) Calculation of Management Fee. Subject to Section 7.2(e) hereof; as
payment to the Manager for performing Services hereunder during any Fiscal Quarter or any part thereof; the MSA Administrator, as of any Calculation Date with respect to such Fiscal Quarter. shall calculate, on or promptly following such Calculation
Date, the Management Fee with respect to such Fiscal Quarter, which shall be equal to, as of such Calculation Date, the product of (i) 0.5%, multiplied by (ii) Adjusted Net Assets as of such Calculation Date; provided,
however, that, with respect to the Fiscal Quarter in which the Commencement Date occurs, the Management Fee shall be equal to the product of (i)(x) 0.5%, multiplied by (y) the Adjusted Net Assets as of such Calculation Date,
multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from and including the Commencement Date to and including the last day of such Fiscal Quarter and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Fiscal
Quarter; provided, further, however, that, with respect to the Fiscal Quarter in which this Agreement is terminated, the Management Fee shall be equal to the product of (i)(x) 0.5%, multiplied by (y) the Adjusted Net
Assets as of such Calculation Date, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from and including the first day of such Fiscal Quarter to but excluding the date upon which this Agreement is terminated and
the denominator of which is the number of days in such Fiscal Quarter (such amount so calculated in accordance with this proviso, the “Final Management Fee”). 

(c) Adjustment of Management Fee. The amount of any Management Fee calculated in accordance with Section 7.2(b) hereof
as of any Calculation Date shall be adjusted, on a dollar-for-dollar basis (such Management Fee, as adjusted, the “Adjusted Management Fee”), by the MSA Administrator immediately prior to the Management Fee Payment Date with
respect to such Calculation Date (such date of adjustment, the “Adjustment Date”) as follows: 
 (i) reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the aggregate amount of all Offsetting Management Fees, if any, accrued by the Manager from any of the Subsidiaries of the Company with respect to such
Fiscal Quarter as of the date of such adjustment; provided, that the Company shall separately guarantee, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, the full, prompt and punctual payment of any unpaid Offsetting Management Fees, with full rights
of subrogation; 
 (ii) reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the aggregate amount of all Over-Paid
Management Fees, if any, existing as of such Calculation Date; 
 (iii) increased, on a dollar-for-dollar
basis, by the aggregate amount of all Under-Paid Management Fees, if any, existing as of such Calculation Date; and 
 (iv) increased, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the aggregate amount of all accrued and unpaid Management Fees, if any, as of such Calculation Date, without duplication of any of the foregoing.

 (d) Payment of Adjusted Management Fee. Subject to Section 7.2(f) hereof, the Company shall pay to the
Manager, on the Management Fee Payment Date with respect to any Calculation Date, the Adjusted Management Fee as of such Calculation Date. Any such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account
or accounts designated by the Manager from time to time. 

  
 15 

 (e) Basis for Calculation of Management Fee and Adjusted Management Fee. The
calculation of the Management Fee, including the components thereof, with respect to any Fiscal Quarter on any Calculation Date shall be based on (i) the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements to the extent available,
(ii) if audited consolidated financial statements are not available, then the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements to the extent available, and (iii) if neither audited nor unaudited consolidated financial statements
are available, then the Company’s books and records then available; provided, that, with respect to any calculation of the Management Fee based on the Company’s books and records, upon availability of the earlier of (x) the
Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and (y) the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements, in each case, relating to amounts previously calculated on such Calculation Date by reference to the Company’s
books and records, the MSA Administrator shall recalculate (A) any Management Fees, and any components thereof, that were previously calculated based on such books and records and (B) any Adjusted Management Fees that were calculated based
on such Management Fees, in each case, to determine if any Over-Paid Management Fee or Under-Paid Management Fee were outstanding as of such Calculation Date; provided, further, that the amount so recalculated shall be conclusive and binding
on the Parties hereto and no further recalculations shall be required or permitted except that a further recalculation shall be required and performed (A) upon a demonstration of clear error with respect to any prior calculation or
recalculation or (B) upon the restatement of the consolidated financial statements of the Company, or any amounts therein, underlying any prior calculation or recalculation, in each case, at any time. The calculation of Adjusted Management
Fees, including the components thereof, as of any Adjustment Date shall be made based on information that is available as of such Adjustment Date; provided, that if any events occur after such Adjustment Date that would affect the amount of
Adjusted Management Fees calculated as of such Adjustment Date, then the MSA Administrator shall recalculate Adjusted Management Fees as of such Adjustment Date to determine if any Over-Paid Management Fee or Under-Paid Management Fee were created
as of the Calculation Date immediately succeeding such Adjustment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the calculation of the Final Management Fee, including the components thereof, shall be made and based on the Company’s unaudited
consolidated financial statements for the applicable Fiscal Quarter when such unaudited consolidated financial statements are available; provided, that, once calculated, no further recalculation of Final Management Fee shall be required or
permitted. 
 (f) Sufficient Liquidity. If the Company does not have sufficient liquid assets to timely pay the
entire amount of the Management Fee due on any Management Fee Payment Date, the Company shall liquidate assets or Incur Indebtedness in order to pay such Management Fee in full on such Management Fee Payment Date; provided, that the Manager
may elect, in its sole discretion by delivery of written notice to the Company prior to such Management Fee Payment Date, to allow the Company to defer the payment of all or any portion of the Management Fee otherwise due and payable on such
Management Fee Payment Date until the next succeeding Management Fee Payment Date and, thereby, enable the Company to avoid such liquidation or Incurrence. For the avoidance of doubt, the Manager may make such election to allow the Company to defer
the payment of Management Fees more than once. 

  
 16 

 (g) Books and Records. The MSA Administrator shall maintain cumulative books
and records with respect to the details of any calculations made pursuant to this Section 7.2, which records shall be available for inspection and reproduction at any time upon request by the Board of Directors of the Company and, if the
Manager is not the MSA Administrator, the Manager.

incurred by the Manager in connection with the identification, evaluation, management, performance of due diligence on, negotiating and oversight of an acquisition by the Company if both (x) such acquisition is actually closed by the Company
and (y) the Subsidiary so acquired, by any manner whatsoever, in connection with such acquisition has entered into a Transaction Services Agreement with the Manager under which such costs and expenses are being reimbursed. 

(c) Any such reimbursement shall be made upon demand by the Manager in U.S. dollars by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an
account or accounts designated by the Manager from time to time.

or otherwise affect their construction or effect. 
 Section 13.7 Applicable Law 

This Agreement, the legal relations between and among the Parties and the adjudication and the enforcement thereof shall be governed by
and interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of another

 Section 13.8 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial 

Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably acknowledges and consents that any legal action or proceeding brought with respect to any of the
obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement may be brought in the courts of the State of New York, County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably
submits to and accepts with regard to any such action or proceeding, for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Party hereby further irrevocably waives any
claim that any such courts lack jurisdiction over such Party, and agrees not to plead or claim, in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby brought in any of the aforesaid courts, that any
such court lacks jurisdiction over such Party. Each Party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party, at its
address for notices set forth in Section 13.5 hereof; such service to become effective ten (10) days after such mailing. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives any objection to such service of process and further irrevocably waives and
agrees not to plead or claim in any action or proceeding 

  
 26 

 
commenced hereunder or under any other documents contemplated hereby that service of process was in any way invalid or ineffective. The foregoing shall not limit the rights of any Party to serve
process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The foregoing consents to jurisdiction shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of New York for any purpose except as provided above and shall not be deemed to
confer rights on any Person other than the respective Parties. 
 Each of the Parties hereby waives any right it may have under
the laws of any jurisdiction to commence by publication any legal action or proceeding with respect this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Parties hereby irrevocably waives the objection which it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any of the courts referred to in this Section 13.8 and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or
claim that any such court is not a convenient forum for any such suit, action or proceeding. 
 The Parties agree that any
judgment obtained by any Party or its successors or assigns in any action, suit or proceeding referred to above may, in the discretion of such Party (or its successors or assigns), be enforced in any jurisdiction, to the extent permitted by
applicable law. 
 The Parties agree that the remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement may be inadequate and that should
any dispute arise concerning any matter hereunder, this Agreement shall be enforceable in a court of equity by an injunction or a decree of specific performance. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and nonexclusive, and shall be in addition
to any other remedies which the Parties may have. 
 Each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation as between the Parties directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or disputes relating hereto.
Each Party (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and
(ii) acknowledges that it and the other Parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 13.8. 
 Section 13.9 Amendment; Waivers 
 No term or condition of this
Agreement may be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent of the Party against whom such amendment, modification or waiver will be enforced; provided, that any amendment of Article VII or Section 8.2 hereof shall not
be effective as to any Party hereto unless such amendment was authorized and approved by the Company’s compensation committee. Any waiver granted hereunder shall be deemed a specific waiver relating only to the specific event giving rise to
such waiver and not as a general waiver of any term or condition hereof. 

  
 27 

 Section 13.10 Remedies to Prevailing Party 

If any action at law or equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled. 

Section 13.11 Severability 
 Each provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable from the others so that if, any provision or term hereof is illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, such illegality,
invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect or impair the validity of the remaining provisions and terms hereof; provided, however, that the provisions governing payment of the Management Fee described in Article VII hereof are not
severable. 
 Section 13.12 Benefits Only to Parties 
 Nothing expressed by or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors or permitted assigns, any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained, this Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof being intended to be and being for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Parties and their
respective successors and permitted assigns, and for the benefit of no other Person. 
 Section 13.13 Further Assurances 

Each Party hereto shall take any and all such actions, and execute and deliver such further agreements, consents, instruments and any
other documents as may be necessary from time to time to give effect to the provisions and purposes of this Agreement. 
 Section 13.14
No Strict Construction 
 The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the
event any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by all Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the

or oral agreements, statements, promises, negotiations or representations not expressly set forth in this Agreement are of no force and effect.
