• Amount and Terms of Revolving Commitments (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, during the Revolving Commitment Period, each Lender severally agrees to make, Convert and Continue revolving credit loans (“Revolving Loans”) in Dollars or any Alternative Currency in such amounts as Borrower may from time to time request; provided, however, that (i) the Dollar Amount of the Outstanding Revolving Obligations of each Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment at any time, (ii) the Dollar Amount of the Outstanding Revolving Obligations of all Lenders plus the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Competitive Loans shall not exceed the combined Revolving Commitments at any time. The Revolving Facility is a revolving credit and, subject to the foregoing and the other terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, Convert, Continue, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans as set forth herein without premium or penalty. (b) At any time after the Effective Date, Borrower and any one or more Lenders (including any New Lender) may agree that such Lender or Lenders shall make or increase the amount of their Revolving Commitments by executing and delivering to Administrative Agent an Increased Revolving Commitment Activation Notice specifying the amount of such increase or new Revolving Commitment and the applicable Increased Revolving Commitment Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) at no time may the combined Revolving Commitments exceed $10,000,000,000, (ii) Revolving Commitments may not be made or increased after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default that is continuing, including after giving effect to the incremental Revolving Commitments in question, and (iii) any increase effected pursuant to this Section 2.01(b) shall be in a minimum amount of at least $25,000,000. No Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any increase described in this Section 2.01(b) unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion. (c) Any additional bank or financial institution (each, a “New Lender”) that, in the case of an institution that is not an Affiliate of a then-existing Lender, with the consent of Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender (which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld), elects to become a “Lender” under this Agreement in connection with an increase described in Section 2.01(b) shall execute a New Lender Supplement (each, a “New Lender Supplement”), substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1, whereupon such bank or financial institution shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. (d) On each Increased Revolving Commitment Closing Date on which there are Revolving Loans outstanding, each Lender (including any New Lender) that has made or increased its Revolving Commitment shall make a Revolving Loan, the proceeds of which will be used to prepay the Revolving Loans of other Lenders, so that, after giving effect thereto, the resulting Revolving Loans outstanding are allocated among the Lenders on a pro rata basis based on the respective Revolving Percentages of the Lenders after giving effect to the increase of Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.01(b) on such Increased Revolving Commitment Closing Date. (e) Borrower shall repay (i) all outstanding Revolving Loans made to it and all amounts funded by the Lenders as cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.03(d) on the Revolving Termination Date, the Extended Revolving Termination Date or the Second Extended Revolving Termination Date, as applicable, and (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan made to it on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan. Borrower may request that the Revolving Commitments and Letter of Credit Commitments be extended for additional one-year periods by providing written notice to Administrative Agent (“Notice Date”) not more than two times prior to the Revolving Termination Date or the Extended Revolving Termination Date, as applicable. If a Lender or a New Lender agrees, in its individual and sole discretion, to extend its Revolving Commitments and/or Letter of Credit Commitments (such Lender or New Lender, an “Extending Lender” or “New Extending Lender”, as the case may be), it will notify Administrative Agent in writing of its decision to do so and the maximum amount of Revolving Commitments and, if applicable, Letter of Credit Commitments it agrees to so extend no later than 30 days after the applicable Notice Date, which notice shall be irrevocable. Administrative Agent will notify Borrower, in writing, of the Lenders’ decisions no later than 35 days after the applicable Notice Date (“Extension Effectiveness Date”). As of the Extension Effectiveness Date, the Extending Lenders’ and the New Extending Lenders’ Revolving Commitments and Letter of Credit Commitments will be extended for an additional year from the Revolving Termination Date (the “Extended Revolving Termination Date”) or the Extended Revolving Termination Date (the “Second Extended Revolving Termination Date”), as applicable; provided that (i) more than 50% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments outstanding on the applicable Extension Effectiveness Date are extended or otherwise committed to by Extending Lenders and any New Extending Lenders (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Extension Effectiveness Date after giving effect to the requested extension and (iii) the remaining tenor of Revolving Commitments of any Extending Lender and any New Extending Lender shall not exceed five years from the applicable Extension Effectiveness Date after giving effect to the requested extension. No Lender shall be required to consent to any such extension request, and any Lender that declines or does not respond in writing to Borrower’s request for commitment renewal (a “Declining Lender”) will have its Revolving Commitments and Letter of Credit Commitment terminated on the then-existing Revolving Termination Date or Extended Revolving Termination Date, as applicable (without regard to any renewals by other Lenders). Borrower will have the right to remove or replace any Declining Lenders in accordance with Section 10.21.

• Termination and Reduction of Revolving Commitments (a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the sum of the Aggregate Total Exposure would exceed the total Commitments. (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be applied to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages. (d) If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Commitments, such Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

• The Revolving Credit Notes The Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes. A Revolving Credit Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment. The Borrowers irrevocably authorize each Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such Lender's Revolving Credit Notes, an appropriate notation on such Lender's Revolving Credit Note Record reflecting the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on such Lender's Revolving Credit Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender's Revolving Credit Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under any Revolving Credit Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Revolving Credit Note when due. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of any Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Revolving Credit Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Revolving Credit Note or other security document, the Borrowers will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Revolving Credit Note or other security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

• Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments If the maturity date shall have occurred in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments at a time when another tranche or tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments is or are in effect with a longer maturity date, then on the earliest occurring maturity date all then outstanding Swing Line Loans shall be repaid in full on such date (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swing Line Loans as a result of the occurrence of such maturity date); provided, however, that if on the occurrence of such earliest maturity date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Credit Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 2.03(l)), there shall exist sufficient unutilized Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so that the respective outstanding Swing Line Loans could be incurred pursuant the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments which will remain in effect after the occurrence of such maturity date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the participations in such Swing Line Loans and the same shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, and such Swing Line Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such earliest maturity date.

• The Revolving Credit (i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Loans to the Borrowers (each such Loan, a “Revolving Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Restatement Effective Date through the Final Availability Date, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(a) under the heading “Revolving Loan Commitments” (such amount as the same may be reduced or increased from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, being referred to herein as such Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment”); provided, however, that, after giving effect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, (x) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Maximum Borrowing Availability and (y) the Revolving Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment. Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, amounts borrowed under this subsection 1.1(a) may be repaid and reborrowed from time to time. (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Borrower Representative requests that Lenders make, or permit to remain outstanding Revolving Loans that, when aggregated with the outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans, would be in excess of the Borrowing Base minus the Availability Block at such time (any such excess Revolving Loan is herein referred to as an “Overadvance”), Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to make, or permit to remain outstanding such Overadvance so long as Agent deems, in its sole discretion, such Overadvance necessary or desirable to preserve or protect any Collateral, or to enhance the collectibility or repayment of Obligations, or to pay any other amounts chargeable to Credit Parties under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses; provided, however, that (A) no Overadvance shall remain outstanding for more than sixty (60) consecutive days during any one hundred eighty (180) consecutive day period (provided that no Overadvance may be funded to fully refinance an existing Overadvance) and (B) Agent may not cause Lenders to make, or permit to remain outstanding, (1) aggregate Revolving Loans in excess of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment less the sum of outstanding Swing Loans plus the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations or (2) an Overadvance in an aggregate amount in excess of 10% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. If an Overadvance is made, or permitted to remain outstanding, pursuant to the preceding sentence, then all Lenders shall be bound to make, or permit to remain outstanding, such Overadvance based upon their Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, regardless of whether the conditions to lending set forth in Section 2.2 have been met. Furthermore, Required Lenders may prospectively revoke Agent’s ability to make or permit Overadvances by written notice to Agent. All Overadvances shall constitute Base Rate Loans, shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans and the default rate under subsection 1.3(c), and shall be due and payable upon demand of the Agent. (iii) Any Revolving Loan outstanding at the time of the Restatement Effective Date under the Existing Credit Agreement shall, for the avoidance of doubt, continue as a Revolving Loan under this Agreement, at the applicable rates and on such other terms as set forth herein.

• Additional Public Interest Commitments Registry Operator shall comply with the public interest commitments set forth in Specification 11 attached hereto (“Specification 11”).

• The Revolving Credit Facility On the terms and conditions set forth in the MLA and this Supplement, CoBank agrees to make loans to the Company during the period set forth below in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, at any one time outstanding, the lesser of $25,000,000.00 (the “Commitment”), or the “Borrowing Base” (as calculated pursuant to the Borrowing Base Report attached hereto as Exhibit A). Within the limits of the Commitment, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow.

• Extension of Revolving Credit Commitments The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Class (each, an “Existing Revolver Tranche”) be amended to extend the Maturity Date with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so amended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In order to establish any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Revolver Tranche) (each, a “Revolver Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche and (y) be identical to the Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche from which such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are to be amended, except that: (i) the Maturity Date of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to a later date than the Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the Effective Yield with respect to extensions of credit under the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, commitment fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for extensions of credit under the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments); and (iv) all borrowings under the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments (i.e., the Existing Revolver Tranche and the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Revolver Extension Series) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (I) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings) and (II) repayments required upon the Maturity Date of the non-extending Revolving Credit Commitments); provided, further, that (A) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time a Revolver Extension Request is delivered to Lenders, (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Revolver Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of any other Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder, (C) any such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and the Liens securing the same) shall be permitted by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements (to the extent any Intercreditor Agreement is then in effect) and (D) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing. Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended pursuant to any Revolver Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Revolver Extension Series”) of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended from an Existing Revolver Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Revolver Extension Series with respect to such Existing Revolver Tranche. Each Revolver Extension Series of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000.
