     Agent and the Lenders to enforce the
obligations of Parent, Trico Cayman and/or Trico Holdco under their Guarantees are expressly
reserved.”

not relating to the Credit Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have the right
to exercise all of their rights and remedies under the Credit Documents and applicable law against
the Credit Parties.

Article VI.

Credit Agreement, and any representation or warranty which has been rendered untrue as a result of
the Specified Events of Default) are true and correct in all material respects on the Second
Amendment Effective Date both before and after giving effect to this Second Amendment, with the
same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of the Second
Amendment Effective Date (it being understood that any representation or warranty made as of a
specific date shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such specific date).

          Section 7.02. This Second Amendment is limited as specified and shall not constitute a
modification, acceptance, consent to deviation from or waiver of any other provision of the Credit
Agreement or any other Credit Document.

          Section 7.03. This Second Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the
different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts when executed and
delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same
instrument. A complete set of counterparts shall be lodged with the U.S. Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Second Amendment by facsimile

SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

such date). The Consent Fee shall not be subject to counterclaim or set-off, or be
otherwise affected by, any claim or dispute relating to any other matter.

          Unless the Administrative Agent has received actual notice from any Lender that the conditions
contained above have not been met, upon the satisfaction of the condition described in clause (iii)
of the immediately preceding sentence and upon the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination
that the other conditions described above have been met, the Second Amendment Effective Date shall
be deemed to have occurred, regardless of any subsequent determination that one or more of the

applicable conditions specified above).

day following the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent

otherwise affected by, any claim or dispute relating to any other matter.

          Section 7.07. By executing and delivering a copy hereof, each Credit Party hereby agrees that
all Loans shall each be guaranteed pursuant to the applicable Guaranty in accordance with the terms
and provisions thereof and shall be fully secured pursuant to the Security Documents in accordance
with the terms and provisions thereof.

          The Borrower and its Subsidiaries agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative
Agent and its affiliates and each director, officer, employee, representative and agent thereof
(each, an “indemnified person”) from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings
(including any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or expenses of
any kind or nature whatsoever which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve the
Administrative Agent or any other such indemnified person as a result of or arising out of or in
any way related to or resulting from the matters described in the foregoing paragraph and, upon
demand, to pay and reimburse the Administrative Agent and each other indemnified person for any
reasonable legal or other out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred in connection with investigating,
defending or preparing to defend any such action, suit, proceeding (including any inquiry or
investigation) or claim (whether or not the Administrative Agent or any other such indemnified
person is a party to any action or proceeding out of which any such expenses arise).

Agreement and each of the other Credit Documents to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be

GENERAL RELEASE; INDEMNITY

          Section 8.01. In consideration of, among other things, the execution and delivery of this

discharges to the fullest extent permitted by law, and hereby agrees to hold each Releasee (as
defined below) harmless from, any and all claims (including, without limitation, crossclaims,

and “controlling persons” (within the meaning of the federal securities laws), and their respective
successors and assigns and each and all of the officers, directors, employees, consultants, agents,
attorneys and other representatives of each of the foregoing (collectively, the
“Releasees”), based in whole or in part on facts, whether or not now known, existing on or
before the Second Amendment Effective Date. The receipt by Borrower or any other Credit Party of
any Loans or other financial accommodations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender after
the date hereof shall constitute a ratification, adoption, and confirmation by Borrower and the
other Credit Parties of the foregoing general releases of all Claims against any Releasee which are based in whole or in part on facts, whether or not
now known or unknown, existing on or prior to the date of receipt of any such Loans or other
financial accommodations. In entering into this Agreement, Borrower and the other Credit

Parties
have consulted with, and been represented by, legal counsel and expressly disclaim any reliance on
any representations, acts or omissions by any of the Releasees and hereby agree and acknowledge
that the validity and effectiveness of the releases set forth above do not depend in any way on any
such representations, acts and/or omissions or the accuracy, completeness or validity hereof. The
provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents and payment in full of the Obligations.
