(successor by merger to Bank One, N.A. (Main Office Chicago)) (the “Administrative Agent”).

R E C I T A L S:

WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender have determined that, in connection with the regularly scheduled Fall 2008 redetermination of the Borrowing Base, the Borrowing Base should be reaffirmed at $479,000,000 (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is based on an evaluation of a Reserve Report that excludes the Xxxxx Properties); and

“ “Secured Obligations” means, collectively, all Obligations and all liabilities and obligations of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries arising under any Lender Party Rate Management Transaction now or hereafter existing between or among the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender, as applicable.”.

(d) The definition of “Eurodollar Base Rate” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting “the applicable British Bankers’ Association LIBOR rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars as reported by any generally recognized financial information service” and inserting in its place “the rate appearing on the Reuters BBA Libor Rates Page 3750 (or on any successor substitute page of such page)”.

(e) The definition of “Loan Documents” in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting “any documents evidencing a Lender Party Rate Management Transaction,” and inserting immediately preceding the period “provided that “Loan Documents” shall not include any agreements or documents evidencing a Lender Party Rate Management Transaction”.

Page 3

(f) Section 2.19 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following Section 2.19.13:

“Section 2.19.13 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) if any LC Obligations exist at the time a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Obligations in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.19.11 for so long as such LC Obligations are outstanding; and

(ii) the LC Issuer shall not be required to issue or Modify any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.19.11.”.

(g) Article 2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new Section 2.22:

“Section 2.22 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requested compensation under Section 3.1 or 3.2 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 3.5, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, 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 Article XII), all of 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 (and if a Commitment is being assigned, the LC Issuer), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participation in Reimbursement Obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.1 or 3.2, or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.5, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.”.
