or other production improvements  and any dispositions, well shut-ins and other reductions of, or decreases to, production).
2.2    Amendment to Section 9.04(b).  The last sentence in Section 9.04(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Group Member to, call, make or offer to make any mandatory Redemption of any Specified Permitted Second Lien Debt unless (1) when the Revolving Credit Exposures of the Borrower exceed $0.00 (provided that no LC Exposure which has been Cash Collateralized in a manner consistent with Section 2.09(j) (or which is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank) shall count as Revolving Credit Exposure for purposes of such calculation) as determined after giving effect to any prepayments or repayments being made in respect of the Loans and/or Cash Collateralization of the Letters of Credit occurring substantially concurrently with such Redemption, no Default, Event of Default or Borrowing Base Deficiency has occurred and is continuing or would result as a result such Redemption and (2) the Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage as of the date of such Redemption is less than eighty percent (80%) after giving effect to such Redemption. 
2.3    Amendments to Section 9.17.  
(a)    Section 9.17(a)(i).  The parenthetical “(when aggregated with other commodity Swap Agreements then in effect other than basis differential swaps on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements)” of Section 9.17(a)(i) of the Credit Agreement is hereby replaced with “(when aggregated with other commodity Swap Agreements then in effect other than Permitted Basis Differential Swaps)”. 
(b)    Section 9.17(a)(ii).  The parenthetical “(exclusive of puts, floors and basis differential swaps on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements for which the total amount of obligations thereunder are known and fixed at the time such transaction is entered into)” of Section 9.17(a)(ii)(A) is hereby replaced with “(exclusive of puts and floors on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements for which the total amount of obligations thereunder are known and fixed at the time such transaction is entered into and Permitted Basis Differential Swaps)”.
(c)    Section 9.17(e).  The parenthetical “(other than basis differential swaps on volumes hedged by other Swap Agreements)” of Section 9.17(e) of the Credit Agreement is hereby replaced with “(other than Permitted Basis Differential Swaps)”.
Section 3.    Borrowing Base.  Each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower agree that upon and as of the Third Amendment Effective Date (as defined below): (a) the May 1, 2018 Scheduled Redetermination shall be deemed to have taken place according to the procedures set forth in the Credit Agreement and (b) the amount of the Borrowing Base shall be maintained at $330.0 million (the “Current Scheduled Redetermination”).  After giving effect to the Current Scheduled Redetermination, the Borrowing Base shall remain in effect until otherwise redetermined or adjusted pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions in accordance with the Credit Agreement.  For avoidance of doubt, this provision does not limit the right of the parties to initiate Interim Redeterminations of the Borrowing Base in accordance 

        

with Section 2.07(c) of the Credit Agreement or any other Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions and the Current Scheduled Redetermination shall not constitute an Interim Redetermination. This Section 3 constitutes the New Borrowing Base Notice delivered in accordance with Section 2.07(d) of the Credit Agreement in connection with the Current Scheduled Redetermination.
Section 4.    Conditions Precedent.  This Amendment shall become effective on the date (such date, the “Third Amendment Effective Date”) when each of the following conditions is satisfied (or waived in accordance with Section 12.02(b) of the Credit Agreement): 
4.1    The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received all other fees and other amounts due and payable in connection with this Amendment or any other Loan Document on or prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, including, to the extent invoiced, reimbursement or payment of all out-of-pocket expenses required to be reimbursed or paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Amendment or any other Loan Document.
4.2    The Administrative Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Amendment signed by the Borrower, the Guarantors and each Lender.
4.3    The Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying as to the representations and warranties in Section 5.2(d) below.
The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to declare this Amendment to be effective (and the Third Amendment Effective Date shall occur) when it has received documents confirming or certifying, to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, compliance with the conditions set forth in this Section 4 (or the waiver of such conditions as permitted in Section 12.02(b) of the Credit Agreement).  Such declaration shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties to the Credit Agreement for all purposes.
Section 5.    Miscellaneous.
5.1    Confirmation.  All of the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, as amended and waived by this Amendment, are, and shall remain, in full force and effect following the effectiveness of this Amendment.  Neither the execution by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of this Amendment, nor any other act or omission by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or their officers in connection herewith, shall be deemed to be an agreement by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to agree to any future requests.
5.2    Ratification and Affirmation; Representations and Warranties.  Each Obligor hereby (a) acknowledges the terms of this Amendment; (b) ratifies and affirms (i) its obligations under, and acknowledges, renews and extends its continued liability under, each Loan Document and agrees that each Loan Document remains in full force and effect as expressly amended hereby and (ii) that the Liens created by the Loan Documents to which it is a party are valid and continuing and secure the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, after giving effect to this Amendment; (c) agrees that from and after the Third Amendment Effective Date (i) each reference to the Credit Agreement in the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment and (ii) this Amendment does not constitute a novation of the Credit Agreement; and (d) represents and warrants to the 

        

Lenders that as of the date hereof, and immediately after giving effect to the terms of this Amendment:  (i) all of the representations and warranties contained in each Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects (unless already qualified by materiality in which case such applicable representation and warranty shall be true and correct), except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, such representations and warranties shall continue to be true and correct in all material respects (unless already qualified by materiality in which case such applicable representation and warranty shall be true and correct) as of such specified earlier date, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (iii) no event, development or circumstance has occurred or exists that has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.  
5.3    Loan Document.  This Amendment is a Loan Document.
5.4    Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto in any number of separate counterparts, and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
