 Exhibit 10.1 

EXECUTION COPY 

RETIREMENT AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE 

Ray C. Dillon (“Executive”) and Deltic Timber Corporation (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, enter
into this Retirement Agreement and General Release (this “Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2016, and agree as follows: 

1.    Retirement. Executive and the Company mutually agree that Executive hereby retires from and ceases to be
employed by the Company on October 10, 2016 (“Retirement Date”). In this connection, Executive acknowledges that he resigns from, effective as of the Retirement Date, (a) his position as President and Chief Executive of the
Company, (b) his position as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), (c) any other position that he holds with or on behalf of the Company and its subsidiaries, divisions and affiliates (the “Company
Group”) and (d) any positions that he holds with any other entities and organizations, including business or trade organizations, state improvement districts, property owner associations and joint ventures (collectively, “Relevant
Organizations”), as a representative of or at the request of a member of the Company Group. Executive has set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto all Relevant Organizations. Executive agrees that, on and after the Retirement
Date, he will not represent himself as being an employee, officer, director, agent or representative of the Company for any purpose, except as expressly requested in writing by the Chairman of the Board or a duly selected delegate thereof. 

2.    Payment to Executive. In consideration of the releases, waivers, representations and obligations by
Executive contained in this Agreement, the Company will pay or provide to Executive: 
 (a)    a lump sum
in cash in the gross amount of Two Million Ninety Five Thousand Seven Hundred Sixty Five Dollars ($2,095,765) (“Retirement Payment”). The Retirement Payment will be payable within ten (10) business days of the Retirement Date
and, if the tenth (10th) business day following the Retirement Date is a weekend or holiday, the payment date may be extended to the first business day following such tenth (10th) business day following the Retirement Date; and 

(b)    the accelerated vesting of all of Executive’s outstanding time-based restricted stock and
Twenty One Thousand Two Hundred Seventy Nine (21,279) shares of his performance-based restricted stock (it being understood that the remainder of Executive’s performance-based restricted stock will be forfeited), as well as the
accelerated vesting of all of his outstanding unvested stock options, with all stock options being exercisable until the earlier of the second (2nd) anniversary of the Retirement Date and the expiration date of such option; and provided
further that any transaction(s) with respect to the stock of the Company that Executive holds on the Retirement Date (including any that is acquired in connection with this Section 2(b)) shall remain subject to the Company’s trading
policy to the extent required for Executive to comply with 

 
such policy and the applicable securities laws, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Executive shall remain subject to
the general prohibition against trading on any material non-public information that Executive may have. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, the
payments and benefits set forth in this Section 2 shall satisfy any severance, notice or similar obligation which either the Company or Executive may have under any agreement between the parties, including the Change-in-Control and Involuntary
Severance Agreement with CEO dated October 18, 2006 (the “Severance Agreement”). 
 3.    Other
Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided below, all other benefits ceased as of the Retirement Date: 

(a)    Accrued Obligations. The Company will pay Executive a lump sum amount, payable promptly
following the Retirement Date (and no later than within ten (10) business days of the Retirement Date), equal to Executive’s unpaid base salary, accrued but unpaid vacation pay and any unreimbursed business expenses, in each case through and
including the Retirement Date. 
 (b)    Retirement Plans; Retiree Medical. Executive’s
benefits under the Thrift Plan of Deltic Timber Corporation (the “Thrift Plan”), the Retirement Plan of Deltic Timber Corporation (the “Qualified Plan”) and the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan of Deltic
Timber Corporation (the “SERP”) will be governed by the terms of such plans (i.e., for purposes of the Qualified Plan and the SERP, Executive shall be eligible for “early pension” benefits). For the avoidance
of doubt, Executive may receive monies in accordance with the terms of those plans, but Executive will not be allowed to make any contributions or receive Company matching contributions under these plans with respect to any compensation otherwise
payable to Executive following the Retirement Date, including the Retirement Payment. If Executive has an outstanding loan under the Thrift Plan, then he will be responsible for repayment of such loan as required under such plan. In
addition, Executive’s benefits under the Retiree Health Plan of Deltic Timber Corporation will be governed by the terms of such plan (i.e., provided that Executive timely and duly elects to participate in such plan, he will be
able to participate as an “early retiree”). 
 4.    Consideration. Executive acknowledges, agrees
and understands that the payments described in Section 2: (a) constitute good, valuable and sufficient consideration for this Agreement, including the waiver and release of claims and (b) without limiting the generality of Section 2, are
in lieu of any severance or separation payment. Aside from the amounts to which Executive is specifically entitled under the terms of this Agreement, Executive acknowledges that Executive has been paid in full for all hours that Executive has
worked for the Company and received any and all compensation, benefits and remuneration of any kind and character earned by Executive as of the date Executive signs this Agreement, including wages, salary (other than salary earned since the last pay
day prior to the Retirement Date), benefits, bonuses, 

  
 2 

 
compensatory time off, commissions, vacation pay, personal leave, restricted stock, stock options, perquisites and pay due under the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) and
the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”), which Executive may be entitled to receive from the Company at any time now or in the future. 

5.    Executive Protections; Defend Trade Secrets Act. 

(a)    Nothing in this Agreement or otherwise limits Executive’s ability to communicate directly with
and provide information, including documents, not otherwise protected from disclosure by any applicable law or privilege to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), or any other federal, state or local governmental agency
or commission or self-regulatory organization (each such agency, commission or organization, a “Government Agency”) regarding possible legal violations, without disclosure to the Company. The Company may not retaliate against
Executive for any of these activities, and nothing in this Agreement requires Executive to waive any monetary award or other relief that Executive might become entitled to from the SEC or any other Government Agency. 

(b)    Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive and the Company acknowledge and agree
that Executive shall not have criminal or civil liability under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or
indirectly, or to an attorney and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under
seal. In addition and without limiting the preceding sentence, if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive’s attorney and may
use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Executive (X) files any document containing the trade secret under seal and (Y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. 

6.    General Release of Claims by Executive. 

(a)    Executive knowingly and voluntarily agrees to release, waive, settle and discharge the Company and
the other people and entities referred to in Section 6(b) as the Company Releasees from any and all claims, charges, demands, damages, suits, liens, debts, actions or causes of action, of whatever nature in law or in equity, known or unknown,

(a)    Subject to Sections 5(a) and 6(e), Executive agrees that he will not disparage the Company
Releasees in any way, or make or give any comments, statements, opinions or the like about the Company Releasees. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 11(a) or otherwise shall prohibit Executive from making truthful

 7 

 (b)    The Company agrees to direct its directors and
executive officers not to make or give any public disparaging comments, statements, opinions or the like about Executive. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 11(b) or otherwise shall prohibit any person from making truthful
disclosures to or having any discussions or communications with any Governmental Agency. 

12.    Confidentiality. Subject to Sections 5(a) and 6(e), Executive agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of all confidential or proprietary information received by Executive while an employee of any member of the Company Group, including all information which Executive knows or should know the Company Group treats as confidential and
all information not known to third parties engaged in the same or a similar business as the Company Group or that gives the Company Group a competitive advantage. All records, files, documents, software, laptop computer, equipment, plans,
policies and other like materials relating to the Company Group, or received by Executive in the course of Executive’s employment shall remain the sole property of the Company and shall not be copied or turned over to any third party and shall
be returned by Executive to the Company at the time specified by the Company, but in no event later than the Retirement Date. 

13.    Non-Solicitation; Non-Interference. Until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Retirement Date,
Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, either alone or jointly with or on behalf of any third party and whether on his own account or as principal, partner, shareholder, member, director, employee, consultant or in any other capacity
whatsoever, in any manner (a) contact or solicit any client or customer to receive services or to purchase any good or services in competition with those provided by any member of the Company Group or (b) interfere or attempt to interfere in any
material respect with the relationship between any member of the Company Group and any client, customer, supplier, investor, financing source or capital market intermediary. 

14.    Cooperation. Subject to Sections 5(a) and 6(e), Executive further agrees that Executive will fully
cooperate and consult with the Company Group (or a Relevant Organization on behalf the Company Group), answer questions for the Company Group (or a Relevant Organization on behalf the Company Group) and provide information as needed by the Company
Group (or a Relevant Organization on behalf the Company Group) from time to time on a reasonable basis, including cooperation in connection with litigation, audits, investigations, claims, SEC filings or personnel matters that arise or have arisen
over actions or matters that occurred or failed to occur during Executive’s employment with the Company. Executive agrees to assist the Company Group (or a Relevant Organization on behalf the Company Group) as a witness or during any
audit, investigation or litigation (including depositions, affidavits and trial) if requested by the Company, and also to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire to facilitate the Company’s preparation and filing of its
proxy statement and periodic reports with the SEC. It is expected that at all times Executive will testify truthfully. Executive agrees to meet at reasonable times and places with the representatives, agents or attorneys of the

  
 8 

 
Company Group (or a Relevant Organization on behalf the Company Group) for purposes of preparing for such activities. To the extent practicable and within the control of the Company Group (or a
Relevant Organization on behalf the Company Group), the Company will use reasonable efforts to schedule the timing of Executive’s participation in any such activities in a reasonable manner to take into account Executive’s then-current
employment or other provision of individual service, and will pay the reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses that the Company pre-approves and that Executive incurs for travel required by the Company with respect to those activities. 

15.    Remedies for Executive’s Breach. Executive acknowledges that his obligations set forth in Sections
9 through 14 are reasonable and necessary to protect the business, interests and property of the Company and are material to this Agreement. Therefore, the parties agree that, in the event of any breach of any such section of this Agreement and in
light of the difficulty of accurately determining actual damages, the Company shall be entitled to pursue any other relief legally available, including by way of example, a temporary restraining order and temporary and permanent injunctions, and
shall also be entitled to cease paying or providing any compensation or benefits provided for in Section 2. 

16.    Non-Admission. This Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by the Company that it has
acted wrongfully with respect to Executive or any other person or that Executive has any rights whatsoever against the Company or any other party. The Company specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts against Executive or any
other person on the part of itself, its employees or its agents. 
 17.    Taxes; Section 409A; Reimbursements.

 (a)    All payments required to be made to Executive by the Company under this Agreement shall be
subject to withholding of such amounts relating to taxes as the Company may reasonably determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. 

(b)    It is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement and the Company’s and
Executive’s exercise of authority or discretion hereunder shall comply with the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the treasury regulations and guidance thereunder (“Section 409A”) so as not to subject
Executive to the payment of additional tax, interest and or penalty which may be imposed under Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if, at Executive’s separation from service, (a) Executive is a
specified employee as defined in Section 409A and (b) any of the payments or benefits provided under this Agreement constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A, then, and only to the extent required by Section 409A, the date of payment of
such payments or benefits otherwise provided shall be delayed for a period of six (6) months following the separation from service, and any amounts so delayed shall be paid during the seventh (7th) month following separation from service. In
addition, if the period during which Executive may execute this Agreement and the Company may make the 

  
 9 

 
Retirement Payment begins in one calendar year and ends in the next calendar year, then, and only to the extent required by Section 409A, any such payment that otherwise would be paid in such
first calendar year shall instead be paid during the first five (5) business days of such next calendar year, to the extent required by Section 409A. 

(c)    Any reimbursement amounts payable under this Agreement shall be paid promptly after receipt of a
properly documented request for reimbursement from Executive; provided that no amount shall be paid later than December 31 of the year following the year during which the reimbursable amounts were incurred by Executive. 

18.    Attorney’s Fees. The parties to this Agreement will bear their own attorney’s fees in
connection with the negotiation, drafting and making of this Agreement. Executive also has released in Section 6 any claim Executive might have to attorney’s fees. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the prevailing
party shall be entitled to an award of costs and attorneys’ fees, including any costs and attorneys’ fees on appeal, in any action to enforce the terms of this Agreement (including by seeking injunctive relief or rescission) or to defend a
claim, lawsuit or other type of action which has been waived or released in this Agreement. 
 19.    Entire
Agreement; Amendments; Successors. This Agreement supersedes all other promises, agreements, representations or understandings between Executive and the Company, and it is the intent of this Agreement that it embodies any and all promises,
agreements and understandings between Executive and the Company (including the Severance Agreement), except that the plan documents and agreements referenced in Sections 2(b) and 3(b) shall remain in full force and effect. No changes or

corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender 

  
 -33-

delivery of a written agreement evidencing the extension among the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties and such other documents, instruments, certificates, opinions of counsel as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in connection
with such extension.

Payments of Principal and Interest; Prepayments; Fees 

Section 3.01 Repayment of Loans. On the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable
account of the Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding on such date. 
 Section 3.02 Interest. 

(a) ABR Loans. The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Cash
Margin. 
 (b) Eurodollar Loans. The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate
for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Cash Margin. 
 (c) Post-Default Rate. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, while an Event of Default set forth in paragraphs (a), (b), (g), (h), or (i) of Section 10.01 is outstanding, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by
the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate
per annum equal to (i) 2.0% plus the cash interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans as provided in Section 3.02(b) plus (ii) the Applicable PIK Rate. 

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

(e) Interest Rate Computations. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate and the Applicable PIK Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap
year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day of the relevant computation period). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be

 (f) PIK Interest. In addition to the interest provided for in Section 3.02(a), (b)
and (c), the Loans shall bear additional interest at a per annum rate equal the Applicable PIK Rate which shall be paid in kind, by being added to the principal balance of the outstanding Loans on the last day of each calendar quarter, beginning on
June 30, 2016. On the Termination Date, the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders the aggregate amount of interest accrued with respect to the Loans that has been paid-in-kind by being added to
the balance thereof in accordance with this clause (f).
 Section 3.03 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement
of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive
absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 

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

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

Section 3.04 Prepayments. 

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing made to it
in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 3.04(b), but each prepayment must be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000 (or if less, the entire

Day prior to the date of prepayment (or such shorter period agreed by each Lender of such ABR Borrowing and the Administrative Agent). Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each
Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment

  
 -36- 

 
of any Borrowing (other than pursuant to Section 3.04(c)) shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as
provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued cash interest to the extent required by
Section 3.02.

Disposition of any property or assets permitted by Section 9.11(a)), (y) any Casualty Event occurs, which in the aggregate results in the realization or receipt by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds in an
amount in excess of $10,000,000, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds realized or received shall be applied as a mandatory repayment of the Loans in accordance with the requirements of Sections 3.04(c)(v) and (vi) or
the Second Lien Loans (as elected by the Borrower in its sole discretion); 
 (iii) If the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary issues or
incurs any Debt (other than Debt permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 9.02 as in effect on the Third Amendment Effective Date), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of the respective incurrence or issuance of Debt shall be
applied on such date as a mandatory repayment of the Loans in accordance with the requirements of Sections 3.04(c)(v) and (vi) or the Second Lien Loans (as elected by the Borrower in its sole discretion). 

(iv) If any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent receives Net Cash Proceeds from any capital contributions or any Net Cash Proceeds from any sale
or issuance of its Equity Interests (other than Net Cash Proceeds of any Excluded Issuance), then, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of any such issuance, sale or advancement will be applied on such date as a mandatory repayment in

so prepaid to the extent required by Section 3.02. 
 (vi) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any
mandatory prepayment of Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) 

  
 -37- 

 
and (v) of this Section 3.04(c) at least five (5) Business Days prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment
and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the
prepayment.
 (d) On the Effective Date (immediately after the incurrence of Loans), the Commitments of each Lender in effect at such time
shall terminate in its entirety.

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

(a) Payments by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal,
interest, fees or of amounts payable under Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York, New York time, on the date when due,
in immediately available funds, without defense, deduction, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Fees, once paid, shall be fully earned and shall not be refundable under any circumstances. Any amounts received after such time on any date
may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices
specified in Section 12.01, except that payments pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and Section 12.03
shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any
payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of
such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. 

  
 -38- 

 (b) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time prior the Termination Date,
insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied in the order set forth in clauses (i) through
(iv), inclusive, of Section 10.02(c). 
 (c) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising
any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder), then
such Lender shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of
principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans (or in other proportion as required hereunder); provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered,
such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to a Loan
Party or an Affiliate thereof not constituting an Affiliate Lender (as to which the provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law and under this Agreement, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 Section 4.02 Presumption of Payment by the
Borrower. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment,
the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact
made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed
to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

Section 4.03 Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by
it pursuant hereto then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s
obligations hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. After acceleration or maturity of the Loans, all principal will be paid as provided in Section 10.02(c). 

  
 -39- 

 Section 4.04 Disposition of Proceeds. The Security Instruments contain an assignment
by the Borrower and/or the other Loan Parties unto and in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders of all of the Borrower’s or each other Loan Party’s interest in and to production and all proceeds attributable
thereto which may be produced from or allocated to the Collateral. The Security Instruments further provide in general for the application of such proceeds to the satisfaction of the Indebtedness and other obligations described therein and
secured thereby. Notwithstanding the assignment contained in such Security Instruments, until the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that they will neither notify the purchaser or purchasers of
such production nor take any other action to cause such proceeds to be remitted to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, but the Lenders will instead permit such proceeds to be paid to the Borrower or any other applicable Loan Party and the
Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to take such actions as may be necessary to cause such proceeds to be paid to the Borrower and/or such Loan Parties. 

ARTICLE V 
 Increased
Costs; Break Funding Payments; Taxes 
 Section 5.01 Increased Costs. 

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

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or 
 (ii) impose on any
Lender or the London interbank market any other condition (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any increase in Taxes other than Excluded Taxes or Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered under Section 5.03) affecting
this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), in each case by an amount deemed by such
Lender to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, in each case by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, as a consequence of this Agreement or the
Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company would have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into 

  
 -40- 

 
consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to
such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c) Certificates. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding
company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 5.01(a) or (b) and reasonably detailed calculations therefor shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender
the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Effect of Failure or Delay in Requesting
Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower
shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 5.01 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred
to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 Section 5.02 Break Funding Payments. In the
event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.05, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for
the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of
interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then
current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount
for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. 

A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section 5.02 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt
thereof. 

  
 -41- 

 Section 5.03 Taxes. 

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

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent or each Lender, within 10 days after
written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder
or with respect to any Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.03) and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender as to the amount of such payment or liability under this
Section 5.03) shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Evidence of
Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower or a Guarantor to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) Status of Lenders. (a) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to
payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to
backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

  
 -42- 

 (i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date
on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from
U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon
the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) in the
case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable,
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS
Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the
Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals
of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-2 or Exhibit I-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each
beneficial owner, as applicable; 

  
 -43- 

 
provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender
may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner. 

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as
may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such
additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has
complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after
the date of this Agreement. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or
inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(f) Indemnification by Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after
demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the
Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the 

  
 -44- 

 
provisions of Section 12.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that
are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to
set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
Section 5.03(f). 
 (g) Tax Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion,
that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or any Guarantor or with respect to which the Borrower or any Guarantor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section
5.03, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 5.03 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise
to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);
provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to
the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 5.03 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or
any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

(h) Survival. The agreements in this Section 5.03 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 Section 5.04 Designation of Different Lending Office. If
any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.01, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 5.03, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices,
branches or affiliates, if in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.03, as the case
may be, in the future and (b) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any

from the affected Lenders but which has been approved by the Majority Lenders (or, in the case of a consent, waiver or amendment involving all Lenders with respect to a certain Class, the
Majority Facility Lenders with respect to such Class), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with
and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.04(b)), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans subject to the assignment, as if the payment of the Loans on such date were an optional or mandatory prepayment, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents with respect to the Loans being assigned, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and accrued fees) or the Borrower, (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 5.01 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, and (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender
becoming a non-consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have agreed to, and shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders) to cause the adoption of, the applicable waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents. 

Section 5.06 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any
Lender or its applicable lending office to honor its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans either generally or having a particular Interest Period hereunder, then (a) such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent thereof and such Lender’s obligation to make such Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended (the “Affected Loans”) until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain such Eurodollar Loans and (b) all
Affected Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender shall be made instead as ABR Loans (and, if such Lender so requests by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, all Affected Loans of such Lender then outstanding shall be
automatically converted into ABR Loans on the date specified by such Lender in such notice) and, to the extent that Affected Loans are so made as (or converted into) ABR Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such
Lender’s Affected Loans shall be applied instead to its ABR Loans; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to make any payments pursuant to Section 5.02 as a result of the conversion of any Affected
Loans under this Section 5.06.

enforceability of any Loan Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect other than (i) the recording and filing of the Security Instruments as
required by this Agreement and (ii) those third party approvals or consents which, if not made or obtained,

Subsidiaries, all transport carriers and treatment and disposal facilities used for such transportation, treatment or disposal have been and are operating in compliance with Environmental Laws and so as not to pose an imminent and substantial
endangerment to public health or welfare or the environment, and are not the subject of any Environmental Claims.

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 Loan
Party’s net revenue interest in such Property 

  
 -56- 

 
other than as reflected in such Reserve Report. All information contained in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (if any) is true and correct in all material respects as of the date
to which such Reserve Report relates. 
 (b) All material leases and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of the Parent and
the Restricted Subsidiaries are valid and subsisting, in full force and effect, and there exists no default or event or circumstance which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would give rise to a default under any such lease or
leases, except as in each case could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

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

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

 Section 7.18 Maintenance of Properties. Except
for such acts or failures to act as could not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Oil and Gas Properties (and Properties unitized therewith) of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries
have been and are 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 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, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect, (a) no Oil and Gas Property owned (whether in fee or by leasehold) by any Loan Party 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 any 

  
 -57- 

 
Loan Party (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 any Loan Party 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
any Loan Party, in a manner consistent with such Loan Party’s past practices (other than those the failure of which to maintain in accordance with this Section 7.18 could not reasonably be expect to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect). 
 Section 7.19 Gas Imbalances. With respect to the Oil and Gas Properties
evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report after the date hereof (if any), except as thereafter disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, on a net basis there are no gas imbalances or other prepayments made to
the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Oil and Gas Properties that would require the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary to deliver and transfer at some time in the future ownership of volumes of Hydrocarbons produced from

included in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (with respect to all of which contracts each of the Parent and the Borrower represents that it or the Restricted Subsidiaries are receiving a price for all production sold thereunder which is
computed substantially in accordance with the terms of the relevant contract and are not having deliveries curtailed substantially below the subject Property’s delivery capacity except as disclosed in Schedule 7.20 or the most recently
delivered Reserve Report), no agreements exist which are not cancelable by the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary on 60 days’ notice or less without penalty to the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary or detriment for the sale of
production from the Parent’s or the Restricted Subsidiaries’ Hydrocarbons (including, without limitation, calls on or other rights to purchase production, whether or not the same are currently being exercised) that (a) pertain to the

or the Borrower, any director, officer, agent, employee or Affiliate of any of the foregoing is currently subject to any material United States sanctions administered by OFAC, and the Borrower will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds from
the Loans or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, for the purpose of financing the activities of any Person known to the Parent or the Borrower to be currently subject

(b) In connection with the delivery of each Reserve Report required by Section 8.11(a), the Parent and the Borrower
shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Administrative Agent shall have received or have been provided reasonable access to, on or prior to the date such Reserve Report is required to be delivered pursuant to
Section 8.11(a), title information (reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require with respect to any Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report so that

 -67- 

 (c) If the Parent and the Borrower has provided or made reasonably available title information
for Properties under Section 8.13 (a) or Section 8.13(b), the Parent and the Borrower shall, within 90 days of notice from the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent has
reasonably determined that title defects, exceptions or omissions (other than Excepted Liens (subject to the provisos at the end of such definition) and Immaterial Title Deficiencies) exist with respect to such Properties, either (i) cure any
such title defects, exceptions or omissions (including defects or exceptions as to priority), (ii) substitute any Mortgaged Properties determined by the Administrative Agent as suffering from title defects, exceptions or omissions (other than

the provisos at the end of such definition) having at least an equivalent value to the substituted Properties as determined in the most recent Reserve Report, and subject such Properties to properly valid and perfected first priority Mortgages, or
(iii) deliver title information in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with respect to other Oil and Gas Properties so that the Administrative Agent shall have received, together with title information
previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Minimum Title Information with respect to Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (and other Oil and Gas Properties constituting new Mortgaged Properties
pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii)) free from such title defects, exceptions or omissions (other than Excepted Liens (subject to the provisos at the end of such definition) and Immaterial Title Deficiencies). 

Section 8.14 Additional Collateral; Additional Guarantors. 

(a) In connection with each delivery of a Reserve Report hereunder, the Borrower shall review such Reserve Report and the Oil and Gas
Properties subject to a Mortgage as of the date of such Reserve Report. If the aggregate Present Value of the Loan Parties’ Proved Reserves subject to a valid, perfected and first-priority Mortgage is less than the Required Mortgage Value, then
the Parent and the Borrower shall, and shall cause the Restricted Subsidiaries to, grant within 30 days of the delivery of the most recent Reserve Report to the Administrative Agent as security for the Indebtedness a valid, perfected and
first-priority Lien on additional Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Reserves to the extent necessary to cause the aggregate Present Value of the Oil and Gas Properties subject to a valid, perfected and Mortgage (subject in priority only to
certain customary exceptions) to equal or exceed the Required Mortgage Value (provided that Excepted Liens of the type described in clauses (a) to (d), (f) and (l) of the definition thereof may exist on such Mortgage Properties, but subject
to the provisos at the end of such definition). All such Liens will be created and perfected by and in accordance with the provisions of Mortgages or other Security Instruments, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent. Any Restricted Subsidiary that creates a Lien on its Oil and Gas Properties shall become a Guarantor in accordance with Section 8.14(b). 

(b) The Parent and the Borrower shall promptly cause each Material Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Effective Date (and each Restricted
Subsidiary that subjects an Oil 

  
 -68- 

 
and Gas Property to a Mortgage pursuant to Section 8.14(a)) to guarantee the Indebtedness pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement. In connection with any such guaranty, the Parent and the
Borrower shall (i) cause such Subsidiary to (A) execute and deliver a Joinder Agreement pursuant to which such Subsidiary becomes a party to the Guaranty Agreement and becomes a Guarantor, and (B) execute and deliver a Joinder
Agreement pursuant to which such Subsidiary becomes a party to the Security Agreement and grants a valid, perfected first-priority security interest (provided that Excepted Liens of the type described in clause (l) of the definition thereof
may exist) in substantially all of its personal Property to the extent required by the Security Agreement and each other applicable Security Instrument (including the filing of financing statements), and (ii) execute and deliver (or, if the
direct parent of such Subsidiary is not the Parent or the Borrower, cause such Subsidiary’s direct parent to execute and deliver) a Security Agreement Supplement pursuant to which the applicable Loan Party will grant a valid, perfected and
first-priority security interest (provided that Excepted Liens of the type described in clause (l) of the definition thereof may exist) in all of the Equity Interests in such Subsidiary (and will, without limitation, deliver original
certificates (if any) evidencing the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary, together with undated stock powers (or the equivalent for any such Subsidiary that is not a corporation) for each certificate duly executed in blank by the registered owner
thereof) to the Administrative Agent (provided that, in the event that the direct parent of such Subsidiary is not a Guarantor, the requirements in this Section 8.14(b) shall also apply to (and with respect to the Equity Interests in)
such Subsidiary’s parent). 
 (c) In the event that any Loan Party acquires any material Property (other than any Oil and Gas Property
and any Property in which a security interest is automatically created under the Security Agreement or other pre-existing Security Instrument) after the Effective Date, the Parent and the Borrower shall, or shall cause such other Loan Party to, give
the Administrative Agent prompt written notice thereof and execute and deliver any Security Instruments reasonably required by the Administrative Agent in order to create a valid, perfected and first-priority security interest and Lien therein to
the extent required by the applicable Security Instruments (provided that Excepted Liens of the type described in clause (l) of the definition thereof may exist). 

(d) In furtherance of the foregoing in this Section 8.14, each Loan Party (including any newly created or acquired
Material Subsidiary and any other Restricted Subsidiary referred to in Section 8.14(a)) shall execute and deliver (or otherwise provide, as applicable) to the Administrative Agent such other additional Security Instruments, documents,
certificates, legal opinions, title insurance policies, surveys, abstracts, appraisals, environmental assessments, flood information and/or flood insurance policies, in each case as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and as
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Documents, the
SPV Subsidiaries shall not be required to guarantee the Indebtedness pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall not be required to become Guarantors hereunder. 

Section 8.15 ERISA Compliance. The Parent will promptly furnish and will cause the Restricted Subsidiaries and any ERISA Affiliate to
promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent (a) promptly after the filing thereof with the United States Secretary of Labor, the Internal Revenue Service or the PBGC, copies of each annual and other report with respect to each Plan

  
 -69- 

 
or any trust created thereunder, (b) promptly upon becoming aware of the occurrence of any ERISA Event or of any “prohibited transaction,” as described in section 406 of ERISA

specifying the nature thereof, what action the Parent, the Restricted Subsidiary or the ERISA Affiliate is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto, and, when known, any action taken or proposed by the Internal Revenue Service, the Department
of Labor or the PBGC with respect thereto, and (c) promptly upon receipt thereof, copies of any notice of the PBGC’s intention to terminate or to have a trustee appointed to administer any Plan. With respect to each Plan (other than a

Effect, (i) satisfy in full and in a timely manner, without incurring any late payment or underpayment charge or penalty and without giving rise to any lien, all of the contribution and funding requirements of section 412 of the Code and
of section 302 of ERISA, and (ii) pay, or cause to be paid, to the PBGC in a timely manner, without incurring any late payment or underpayment charge or penalty, all premiums required pursuant to sections 4006 and 4007 of ERISA.

(a) will cause the management, business and affairs of each of the Parent and its Subsidiaries to be conducted in such a manner (including,
without limitation, by keeping separate books of account) so that each Unrestricted Subsidiary that is a corporation will be treated as a corporate entity separate and distinct from the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that
the foregoing will not prohibit payments under expense sharing agreements with such Unrestricted Subsidiaries which are consistent with past practices and/or required by any applicable Governmental Authority.

that would violate any of the regulations of the Board, including Regulations T, U and X or (y) to finance the purchase or carry of margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Board). If requested by the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of Form FR U-1, Form FR G-3 or such other form referred to in Regulations T, U and X
of the Board, as the case may be.

ARTICLE XI 
 The
Administrative Agent 
 Section 11.01 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. 

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 11.10) appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative
Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein
and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent, any syndication agent or documentation 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. 

Section 11.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers under this Agreement or any other Loan 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 Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or 

  
 -88- 

 
attorney in fact that it selects except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross
negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such agent or attorney in fact. 
 Section 11.03 Default; Collateral. 

(a) Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, the Lenders agree to promptly confer in order that the Majority
Lenders or the Lenders, as the case may be, may agree upon a course of action for the enforcement of the rights of the Lenders; and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action (without incurring any liability to any
Person for so refraining) unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Majority Lenders or the Lenders, as the case may be. All rights of action under the Loan Documents and all right to the Collateral, if
any, hereunder may be enforced by the Administrative Agent and any suit or proceeding instituted by the Administrative Agent in furtherance of such enforcement shall be brought in its name as the Administrative Agent without the necessity of joining
as plaintiffs or defendants any other Lender, and the recovery of any judgment shall be for the benefit of the Lenders (and, with respect to the Secured Swap Agreements, the Administrative Agent and Affiliates of the Lender or of the Administrative
Agent, if applicable) subject to the expenses of the Administrative Agent. In actions with respect to any Property of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent is acting for the ratable benefit of each Lender. Any
and all agreements to subordinate (whether made heretofore or hereafter) other indebtedness or obligations of the Loan Parties to the Indebtedness shall be construed as being for the ratable benefit of each Lender (and, with respect to the Secured
Swap Agreements, the Administrative Agent and Affiliates of the Lender or of the Administrative Agent, if applicable). 
 (b) Each Lender
authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Security Instruments on behalf of and for the benefit of the Lenders (or if previously entered into, hereby ratifies the Administrative Agent’s (or any predecessor administrative
agent’s) previously entering into such agreements and Security Instruments). 
 (c) Except to the extent unanimity (or other percentage
set forth in Section 12.02) is required hereunder, each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Majority Lenders in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Majority Lenders of the
power set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all of the Lenders. 

(d) The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of the Lenders (and, with respect to the Secured Swap Agreements, the
Administrative Agent and Affiliates of the Lender or of the Administrative Agent, if applicable), without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or
Security Instruments which may be necessary to create, perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Instruments. 

(e) The Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral
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 

  
 -89- 

 
encumbered or that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent (or any predecessor administrative agent) herein or pursuant to the Security Instruments 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 Administrative Agent in this Section 11.03 or in any of the Security Instruments; IT BEING UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT IN RESPECT OF THE COLLATERAL, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION, OR EVENT RELATED THERETO,
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT MAY ACT IN ANY MANNER IT MAY DEEM APPROPRIATE, IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, AND THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL HAVE NO DUTY OR LIABILITY WHATSOEVER WITH RESPECT TO ANY COLLATERAL OR THE SECURITY INSTRUMENTS TO ANY LENDER
(AND, WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURED SWAP AGREEMENTS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND AFFILIATES OF THE LENDER OR OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, IF APPLICABLE), IN THE ABSENCE OF ITS OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF
COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN A FINAL AND NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT. 
 (f) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at
its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral: (i) upon the payment in full of the Indebtedness (other than inchoate or contingent or reimbursable obligations for
which no claim has been asserted); (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of to a Person that is not a Loan Party if any Loan Party certifies in a certificate of a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party to the Administrative Agent
that the sale or disposition is permitted under this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); (iii) constituting “Excluded Property” as defined in the Security
Agreement; (iv) constituting property in which neither the Parent nor any Restricted Subsidiary owned an interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; (v) constituting property leased to the Parent or a Restricted
Subsidiary under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary to be, renewed; or
(vi) consisting of an instrument or other possessory collateral evidencing Debt or other obligations pledged to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors), if the Debt or obligations evidenced thereby has been paid in
full or otherwise superseded. In addition, the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to release Liens upon Collateral as contemplated herein and in the other Loan Documents, or if approved, authorized, or ratified in writing by
the requisite Lenders. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this
Section 11.03. 
 (g) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option, and in its
sole discretion, to release any Guarantor (other than the Parent) from its obligations under this Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Material Subsidiary or becomes an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a result of a designation permitted pursuant to
Section 9.19. 
 (h) In furtherance of the authorizations set forth in this Section 11.03, each Lender (and, with respect to
the Secured Swap Agreements, the Administrative Agent and Affiliates of 

  
 -90- 

 
the Lender or of the Administrative Agent, if applicable) hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, for and on behalf of and
in the name of each such Lender (i) to enter into Security Instruments (including, without limitation, any appointments of substitute trustees under any Security Instruments), (ii) to take action with respect to the Collateral and Security
Instruments to create, perfect, maintain, and preserve the Lenders’ Liens therein, and (iii) to execute instruments of release or to take other action necessary to release Liens upon any Collateral or to release Guarantors to the extent
authorized herein or in the other Loan Documents. This power of attorney shall be liberally, not restrictively, construed so as to give the greatest latitude to the Administrative Agent’s power, as attorney, relative to the guarantee and
Collateral matters described in this Section 11.03. The powers and authorities herein conferred on the Administrative Agent may be exercised by the Administrative Agent through any Person who, at the time of the execution of a particular
instrument, is an officer of the Administrative Agent (or any Person acting on behalf of the Administrative Agent pursuant to a valid power of attorney). The power of attorney conferred by this Section 11.03(h) to the Administrative
Agent is granted for valuable consideration and is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable (subject to Section 11.01) so long as the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, shall remain unpaid or the Lenders are obligated to make any Loan
under the Loan Documents. 
 Section 11.04 Liability of Administrative Agent. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY RELATED
PARTY OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL (A) BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED TO BE TAKEN BY ANY OF THEM UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (EXCEPT FOR ITS OWN GROSS
NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT IN CONNECTION WITH ITS DUTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN A FINAL AND NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant
for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent or such Related Party under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, or for the creation, perfection or priority of any Liens purported to be created by any of the Loan Documents, or the validity, genuineness, enforceability, existence, value or sufficiency of any collateral security, or to
make any inquiry respecting the performance by the Borrower of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its
obligations hereunder or thereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Related Party thereof shall be under any obligation to any Lender or Participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the
agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary or any Affiliate thereof.

 Section 11.05 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature,
resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, electronic mail, or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed,
sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to consult and seek advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary), independent accountants and other experts selected by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders, the Super Majority Lenders or
all the Lenders, as applicable, and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Majority Lenders or all the Lenders, if required
hereunder, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and Participants. Where this Agreement expressly permits or prohibits an action unless all the Lenders, the Majority Lenders or
Super Majority Lenders, as applicable, otherwise determine, the Administrative Agent shall, and in all other instances, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or a vote of the requisite
Lenders. 
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 6.01, each Lender
that has funded its Applicable Percentage of the Loans on the Effective Date shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted, or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the Administrative Agent to such Lender
(or otherwise made available for such Lender on SyndTrak Online, DXSyndicateTM or any similar website) for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required hereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a
Lender. 
 Section 11.06 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received written notice from a Lender, the Parent or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the
Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be directed by the Majority Lenders in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however,
that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it
shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders. 
 Section 11.07 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by
Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Related Party of the Administrative Agent has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the

  
 -92- 

 
Administrative Agent or any Related Party thereof hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary
or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Related Party thereof to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent or the Related Parties thereof
have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Related Party thereof and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, any Guarantor and their respective
Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Related Party thereof and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals
and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition
and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. In this regard, each Lender acknowledges that Latham & Watkins LLP is acting in this transaction as counsel to the Administrative Agent. Each other party hereto will
consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the
Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other
condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any Related Party of the Administrative Agent. 

Section 11.08 Indemnification of Agents. WHETHER OR NOT THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY ARE CONSUMMATED, THE LENDERS SHALL
INDEMNIFY UPON DEMAND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE BORROWER AND WITHOUT LIMITING THE OBLIGATION OF THE BORROWER TO DO SO), IN ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR
RESPECTIVE APPLICABLE TOTAL PERCENTAGES, AND HOLD HARMLESS THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES INCURRED BY IT (INCLUDING THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S OR
SUCH RELATED PARTY OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S OWN NEGLIGENCE); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NO LENDER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR THE PAYMENT TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY RELATED PARTY THEREOF OF ANY PORTION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED
LIABILITIES RESULTING FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN A FINAL AND NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT; 

  
 -93- 

 
provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Majority Lenders, the Super Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders under this Agreement, as applicable,
shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 11.08. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its
ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative 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 Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative
Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 11.08 shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment of all Indebtedness hereunder and the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 11.09 Administrative Agent in its Individual
Capacity. Riverstone and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Parent and its
Affiliates as though Riverstone were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Riverstone or its Affiliates may receive information
regarding the Parent or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Parent or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such
information to them. With respect to its Loans, Riverstone shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms
“Lender” and “Lenders” include Riverstone in its individual capacity. 
 Section 11.10 Successor Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders with a copy of such notice to the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Majority Lenders shall appoint
from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders which successor administrative agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent of the Borrower
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting
with the Lenders and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred which is continuing, upon written approval of the Borrower (which approval of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), a successor administrative
agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, the
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the Loan Documents and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring
Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI and
Sections 12.03 and 12.05 shall inure to the benefit of 

  
 -94- 

 
such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents or attorneys in fact and the Administrative Agent’s Related Parties as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the
retiring Administrative Agent was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice
of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders
appoint a successor agent as provided for above; provided that in the case of any security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such
security until such time as a successor administrative agent is appointed. 
 Section 11.11 Administrative 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 the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, the
Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower)
shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise. 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of
the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Indebtedness 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 Lenders and the
Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent under Section 12.03) 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 Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Section 12.03. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the
Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Indebtedness or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative
Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 Section 11.12 Secured Swap Agreements. To the
extent any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or of a Lender is a party to a Secured Swap Agreement with a Loan Party and thereby 

  
 -95- 

 
becomes a beneficiary of the Liens pursuant to any Security Instrument, such Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender shall be deemed to appoint the Administrative Agent its nominee and
agent to act for and on behalf of such Affiliate in connection with such Security Instruments and the Intercreditor Agreement, if applicable, and to be bound by the terms of this Article XI and the other provisions of this Agreement and the
Intercreditor Agreement, if any. 
 Section 11.13 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender (and each Person that becomes a Lender
hereunder pursuant to Section 12.04) hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into, join or otherwise become party to the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender as needed to effectuate the transactions
permitted by this Agreement and agrees that the Administrative Agent may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. Without limiting the provisions of Sections 11.01 and 12.03,
each Lender hereby consents to the Administrative Agent and any successor serving in such capacity and agrees not to assert any claim (including as a result of any conflict of interest) against the Administrative Agent, or any such successor,
arising from the role of the Administrative Agent or such successor under the Loan Documents or any such Intercreditor Agreement so long as it is either acting in accordance with the terms of such documents and otherwise has not engaged in gross
negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction). In addition, the Administrative Agent, or any such successor, shall be authorized, without the consent of any Lender,
to execute or to enter into amendments of, and amendments and restatements of, the Security Instruments, any such Intercreditor Agreement and any additional and replacement Intercreditor Agreements, in each case, in order to provide for Liens
permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be pari passu with the Loans.

 Section 12.02 Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with
respect to, any right, remedy, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, remedy, power or privilege, under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under any of the Loan Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers or privileges that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or consent to any 

  
 -97- 

 
departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 12.02(b), 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, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative
Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Subject to Section 12.04(b)(ii)(E)(5),
neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor any Security Instrument nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Loan Parties party thereto and the
Majority Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall 

(i) extend the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, 

(ii) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or reduce or forgive the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any fees
payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that the consent of an Affiliate Lender for any such reduction shall not be required if such reduction is proportionately
applicable to each Lender (including such Affiliate Lender), 
 (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any
Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone or extend the applicable Termination Date without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that the consent of an Affiliate
Lender for any such postponement, reduction, extension or waiver shall not be required if such postponement, reduction, extension or waiver is proportionately applicable to each Lender (including such Affiliate Lender), 

(iv) change Section 4.01 (b) or Section 4.01(c) in a manner that would alter the pro
rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby; provided that the consent of an Affiliate Lender for any such change shall not be required if such change is proportionately
applicable to each Lender (including such Affiliate Lender), 
 (v) release all or substantially all of the aggregate value of the
guarantees of the Guarantors under the Guaranty Agreement or release all or substantially all of the Collateral or reduce the percentage set forth in the definition of Required Mortgage Value to less than 80%, without the written consent of
each Lender (other than any Affiliate Lender), or 
 (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section 12.02(b)
or the definitions of “Super Majority Lenders” or “Majority Lenders”, or Section 9.11(g) or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive,
amend or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or any other Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; 

  
 -98- 

 provided further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of
the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any supplement to Schedule 7.15 (Subsidiaries) shall be
effective simply by delivering to the Administrative Agent a supplemental schedule clearly marked as such and, upon receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly deliver a copy thereof to the Lenders. 

(c) Without the consent of any other Person, the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent may (in its or their
respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Loan Document (including the Guaranty Agreement), or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting,
perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Creditors or additional Subsidiaries to become Guarantors, or as required by local
law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, in any property or so (i) that the security interests therein comply with applicable law or (ii) the guarantees provided under the Guaranty Agreement
comply with applicable law or (iii) such guarantees or security interests or other Loan Documents are consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 12.02(a), if at any time after the Effective Date, the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend
such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Majority Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt
of notice thereof. 
 Section 12.03 Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Borrower shall pay or reimburse (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and
its Affiliates, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel and other outside consultants for the Administrative Agent, the reasonable travel, photocopy, mailing, courier, telephone and other similar
expenses, and the cost of environmental audits and surveys and appraisals, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration (both before and after
the execution hereof and including advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent as to the rights and duties of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect thereto) of this Agreement and the other Loan 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 be consummated), provided, however, that in the case of legal fees and expenses,
such payment or reimbursement shall be limited to the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the Administrative Agent (and, if reasonably necessary, to one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to the Administrative Agent),
(ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred by the Administrative 

  
 -99- 

 
Agent or any Lender in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by this Agreement or any Security Instrument or any other document
referred to therein, and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to the Administrative Agent (and, if reasonably necessary, to one local
counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to the Administrative Agent), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights or remedies in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including its rights under this
Section 12.03, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including, without limitation, all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or similar negotiations in respect of such Loans. 

(b) THE BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER, AND EACH RELATED PARTY 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, DISBURSEMENTS AND OTHER CHARGES
OF OUTSIDE COUNSEL FOR ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE (REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH INDEMNITEE IS A PARTY THERETO) ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF (1) THE EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, THE PERFORMANCE, ENFORCEMENT OR ADMINISTRATION BY THE PARTIES HERETO OR THE PARTIES TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS
HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR BY ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, (2) THE FAILURE OF THE PARENT OR ANY RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY TO COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, INCLUDING THIS
AGREEMENT, OR WITH ANY LAW, (3) ANY INACCURACY OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR ANY BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR SET FORTH IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY INSTRUMENTS, DOCUMENTS OR CERTIFICATIONS DELIVERED IN
CONNECTION THEREWITH, (4) ANY LOAN OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREFROM, (5) ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, (6) THE OPERATIONS OF THE BUSINESS OF THE PARENT AND THE RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES, (7) ANY ASSERTION THAT THE
LENDERS WERE NOT ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE PROCEEDS RECEIVED PURSUANT TO THE SECURITY INSTRUMENTS, (8) ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW APPLICABLE TO THE PARENT OR ANY RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY OR ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE
PRESENCE, GENERATION, STORAGE, RELEASE, THREATENED RELEASE, USE, TRANSPORT, DISPOSAL, ARRANGEMENT OF DISPOSAL OR TREATMENT OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES, (9) THE BREACH OR NON-COMPLIANCE BY THE PARENT OR ANY RESTRICTED
SUBSIDIARY WITH ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW, (10) THE PAST

IN PRESENT LIABILITY, (11) THE PRESENCE, USE, RELEASE, STORAGE, TREATMENT, DISPOSAL, GENERATION, THREATENED RELEASE, TRANSPORT, ARRANGEMENT FOR TRANSPORT OR ARRANGEMENT FOR DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR AT ANY OF THE
PROPERTIES OWNED OR OPERATED BY THE PARENT OR ANY RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY OR ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED PRESENCE OR RELEASE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR FROM ANY PROPERTY OWNED OR OPERATED BY THE PARENT OR ANY OF THE RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES,
(12) ANY ENVIRONMENTAL CLAIM RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THE PARENT OR ANY OF THE RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES, (13) ANY OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH OR SAFETY CONDITION IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR
(14) ANY ACTUAL OR PROSPECTIVE CLAIM, LITIGATION, INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY INDEMNITEE IS A PARTY THERETO, AND
SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL EXTEND TO EACH INDEMNITEE NOTWITHSTANDING THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE OF EVERY KIND OR CHARACTER WHATSOEVER, WHETHER ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, WHETHER AN AFFIRMATIVE ACT OR 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 (X) THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE (AS
DETERMINED BY A FINAL, NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT OF A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION), OR (Y) ANY PROCEEDING NOT INVOLVING ANY ACT OR OMISSION BY THE PARENT OR ITS AFFILIATES THAT IS SOLELY AMONG INDEMNITEES (OTHER THAN ANY
PROCEEDING AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, IN ITS CAPACITY AS SUCH). 
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount
required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent or attorney in fact thereof) or any Related Party of the Administrative Agent under Section 12.03(a) or Section 12.03(b), each Lender severally agrees to pay to
the Administrative Agent (or such sub-agent or attorney in fact) or such Related Party, as applicable, such Lender’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 expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent or attorney in
fact thereof) in its capacity as such or against any Related Party of the Administrative Agent acting for the Administrative Agent in connection with such capacity. 

  
 -101- 

 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives,
any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of in connection with, or as a result of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section 12.03 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 

Section 12.04 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) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower
without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 12.04. 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, Participants (to the extent provided in Section 12.04(c)) and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees
(each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of: 

(A) the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that no consent of
the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; provided, further, that the
Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that no
consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund. 

  
 -102- 

 Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender of the same Class, an Affiliate of a Lender of the same Class or an
Approved Fund of the assigning Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of such Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of any Class of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 or, if smaller, the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s applicable outstanding Loans of such Class unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 

(B) the parties to each assignment (other than assignments to an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent; 

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; 

(D) the Assignor shall furnish to the Assignee a copy of the Form FR U-1 or Form FR G-3, as the case may be, originally
obtained with respect to the Commitment or Loans being assigned; and 
 (E) the assignment by any Lender of all or a portion
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate of the Borrower that is an Eligible Assignee (each, an “Affiliate Lender”), shall be subject to the following limitations: 

(1) each Affiliate Lender shall represent and warrant as of the date of any such purchase and assignment, that neither such
Affiliate Lender or any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors or officers has any material non-public information with respect to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or securities that has not been disclosed to the assigning
Lender (other than because such assigning Lender does not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Parent and its Subsidiaries or securities) prior to such date to the extent such information could reasonably be expected
to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material, to a Lender’s decision to assign rights and obligations hereunder to such Affiliate Lender; 

  
 -103- 

 (2) each Affiliate Lender will not be entitled to receive, and will not receive,
information provided solely to the Lenders that are not Affiliate Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender that is not an Affiliate Lender (other than the right to receive notices of prepayments in respect of its Loans or Commitment
required to be delivered to the Lenders hereunder), will not be permitted to attend or participate in, and will not attend or participate in, meetings or conference calls solely among the Lenders that are not Affiliate Lenders and the Administrative
Agent and will not receive advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; 
 (3) the aggregate percentage of
the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Loans held at any one time by all Affiliate Lenders may not exceed 25% of the applicable aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding at such time under this Agreement; 

(4) there will not be more than two (2) Affiliate Lenders at any time; 

(5) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Majority Lenders, the
applicable Majority Facility Lenders, the Super Majority Lenders or all Lenders under this Agreement or under a Facility have (x) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the
terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or, subject to Section 12.04(b)(vi), any plan of reorganization pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, (y) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or
(z) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Loans held by any Affiliate Lender shall be deemed to be not outstanding for
all purposes of calculating whether the Majority Lenders, the applicable Majority Facility Lenders, the Super Majority Lenders or all Lenders under this Agreement or under a Facility have taken any actions (unless the relevant consent or action
affects such Affiliate Lender in a disproportionately adverse manner than its effect on other Lenders under the same Facility or the Facilities, as applicable); and 

(6) borrowings of Loans shall not be made to directly or indirectly fund the purchase or assignment. 

  
 -104- 

 For the purposes of this Section 12.04, “Approved Fund” means an
Eligible Assignee that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) a Person or an Affiliate of a Person that administers or manages a Lender, and “Eligible Assignee” means a Person (other than a
natural person, the Parent or its Subsidiaries) being a commercial bank, an insurance company, a finance company, a financial institution, or any fund or “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulations D of the Securities Act) that is
engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of business; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, an Affiliate of the Borrower shall only be an
Eligible Assignee if Section 12.04(b)(ii)(E) is complied with. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) below and the receipt by the Assignee of the copy of the applicable form pursuant to paragraph (b)(ii)(D) above, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder
shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender
shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and
Section 12.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.04(b) shall be treated for purposes of this
Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.04(c). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the Borrower (at its
expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an
agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the
Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender,
at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and
Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
Section 12.04(b), and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 12.04(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained
therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 12.04(b) and the Assignee receives a copy of the
applicable form pursuant to Section 12.04(b)(ii)(D) above. 

  
 -105- 

 (vi) Additionally, the Loan Parties and Affiliate Lenders hereby agree that if a case under the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code is commenced against any Loan Party, such Loan Party shall seek (and the Affiliate Lenders shall consent) to provide that the vote of the Affiliate Lenders with respect to any plan of reorganization of such Loan Party shall be
counted in the same proportion as all other Lenders except that the Affiliate Lenders’ vote may be counted in the manner designated by such Affiliate Lender to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat the Indebtedness owed
to the Affiliate Lenders in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to the Affiliate Lenders than the proposed treatment of similar Indebtedness owed to Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Borrower or would deprive the Affiliate
Lenders of their pro rata share of any payments to which all Lenders are entitled. The Affiliate Lenders hereby irrevocably appoint the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as the Affiliate Lenders’
attorney in fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Affiliate Lenders and in the name of the Affiliate Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the
Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section 12.04(b)(vi) and the Term Loans held by the Affiliate Lenders (and any claim with respect thereto) shall be deemed assigned for all purposes to the
Administrative Agent to vote in accordance with this Section. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower (each a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible
to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) such Lender shall furnish to the Participant a copy of the Form FR U-1 or Form FR G-3, as the case may be, originally obtained with respect to the rights and obligations
hereunder subject to the relevant participation and (D) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby
pursuant to Section 12.02(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 5.01, Section 5.02, and Section 5.03 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
Section 12.04(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be
subject to Section 4.01 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name
and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no
Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the 

  
 -106- 

 
identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the
extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall
be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

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

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may grant to a Conduit Lender the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan
that a Lender would be required to make, and any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender, in each case, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without
regard to the limitations set forth in Section 12.04(b). Each of the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in
instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial
paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its
inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. 
 Section 12.05 Survival;
Revival; Reinstatement. 
 (a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Parent herein and by the Restricted
Subsidiaries in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of any Loans regardless of any 

  
 -107- 

 
investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect
representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is
outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and
Section 12.03 and Article XI shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or
termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof. 
 (b) To
the extent any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and such payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including
pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any bankruptcy or other laws for the relief of
debtors or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made. 

Section 12.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute
an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email (in.pdf or similar format) or telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 (b) This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with
respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the
subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the final agreement among the parties hereto and thereto and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of
the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. 
 (c) This Agreement shall become effective when (i) it shall
have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and (ii) the conditions precedent in
Section 6.01 have been satisfied or waived in accordance with Section 12.02, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 12.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the 

  
 -108- 

 
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision
in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 12.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default under Section 10.01(a) or Section
10.01(b) shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates (and the Administrative Agent, in respect of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses payable to it or its Related Parties hereunder) is hereby authorized at any
time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations (of
whatsoever kind, including, without limitations, obligations under the Secured Swap Agreements) at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate or the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent’s Related Party to or for the credit or the
account of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary against any of and all the obligations of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary owed to such Lender and its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent’s Related
Parties now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, its Related Party, such Lender or its Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The Administrative Agent or such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower after any such set off and application made by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, but the failure to
give such notice will not affect the validity of such set off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 12.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of
setoff) which such Lender or its Affiliates may have. 
 Section 12.09 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS.

 (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Parent and the Borrower hereby unconditionally waives any claim to assert that the law of any other jurisdiction governs this Agreement and the Notes, and this Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York pursuant to Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law, which the Borrower and the Lenders expressly intend to apply. 

(b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW
YORK COUNTY (BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN) OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HEREBY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW) IN RESPECT OF
ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF
FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE 

  
 -109- 

 
BRINGING OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS. THIS SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION DOES NOT PRECLUDE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE LENDERS FROM OBTAINING JURISDICTION
OVER THE PARENT OR THE BORROWER IN ANY COURT OTHERWISE HAVING JURISDICTION. 
 (c) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS
OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO IT AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 12.01 OR SUCH OTHER ADDRESS
AS IS SPECIFIED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.01 (OR ITS ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION), SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF A PARTY OR ANY HOLDER OF A
NOTE TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANOTHER PARTY IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 

(d) EACH PARTY HEREBY (i) IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL
ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN; (ii) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY SUCH LITIGATION

THAT NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR COUNSEL OF ANY PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, OR IMPLIED THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS, AND
(iv) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS
Section 12.09. 
 Section 12.10 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used
herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement, and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

Section 12.11 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to keep confidential all non-public
information provided to it by the Parent or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement that is designated by the provider thereof as confidential; provided that
nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any Affiliate thereof (subject, in the case of such disclosure to any Affiliate of the
Administrative Agent or a Lender, to the 

  
 -110- 

 
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, being responsible for compliance by such Affiliate with the provisions of this Section 12.11), (b) subject to an
agreement to comply with the provisions of this Section, to any actual or prospective Transferee or any direct or indirect counterparty to any Swap Agreement (or any professional advisor to such counterparty), (c) to its employees, directors,
agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its Affiliates (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to
keep such information confidential), (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory bodies that claim oversight over the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates or businesses, (e) in response to any order of
any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Law, (f) if requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (g) that has been publicly disclosed, (h) to the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to
such Lender, (i) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcements of its rights hereunder or
thereunder, or (j) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any non-public information). 

Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may include material non-public information
concerning the Parent and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material
non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 
 All information, including
requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material
non-public information about the Parent and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative
Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

Section 12.12 Interest Rate Limitation. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Lender shall conform strictly to usury
laws applicable to it. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law
(collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate
of interest payable in respect of such Loan, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but

  
 -111- 

 
were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but
not above the Maximum Rate therefor (after giving effect to such increase)) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received, to the maximum extent
possible by operation of this Section 12.12, by such Lender. 
 Section 12.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This
Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the agreement of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder are solely for the benefit of the Borrower, and no other Person (including, without limitation, any Restricted Subsidiary, any obligor, contractor,
subcontractor, supplier or materialman) shall have any rights, claims, remedies or privileges hereunder or under any other Loan Document against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any reason whatsoever. There are no third party
beneficiaries (other than the successors and assigns of the parties hereto permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 12.04(c) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees). 

Section 12.14 Collateral Matters; Swap Agreements. The benefit of the Security Instruments and of the provisions of this Agreement
