ELEVENTH AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED

CREDIT AGREEMENT

THIS ELEVENTH AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) dated as of April 15, 2013, is by and among Concho Resources Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders party hereto (the “Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise expressly defined herein, capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement (as defined below).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders entered into that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 31, 2008 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders amend the Credit Agreement in certain respects.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and confessed, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Amendments to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver in writing of each condition precedent set forth in Section 3 of this Amendment, and in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Amendment, the Credit Agreement shall be amended effective as of the Eleventh Amendment Effective Date (defined below) in the manner provided in this Section 1.

1.1 Additional Definitions. Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended by inserting the following definitions in the appropriate alphabetical order:

“Commodity Exchange Act” means the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute.

“Eleventh Amendment Effective Date” means April 15, 2013.

“Eligible Contract Participant” means an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder.

ELEVENTH AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT–PAGE 1

such Swap Obligation (or any Guarantee thereof) is or becomes illegal under the Commodity Exchange Act or any rule, regulation or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof) by virtue of such Guarantor’s failure for any reason to constitute an Eligible Contract Participant at the time the Guarantee of such Guarantor or the grant of such security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation. If a Swap Obligation arises under a master agreement governing more than one swap, such exclusion shall apply only to the portion of such Swap Obligation that is attributable to swaps for which such Guarantee or security interest is or becomes illegal.

1.2 Amended Definitions. The following definitions set forth in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended and restated as follows:

“Borrowing Base” means, at any time, an amount equal to the amount determined pursuant to Section 3.01, as the same may be redetermined, adjusted or reduced from time to time pursuant to Section 3.02, 3.03 or as otherwise adjusted or reduced, pursuant to Section 7.05(c).

“Consolidated Net Income” means, for any period, for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, the net income of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (excluding extraordinary gains and extraordinary losses and the net income of any Person (other than the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary) for that period, except to the extent of the amount of dividends and distributions actually received by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary), provided that the calculation of Consolidated Net Income shall exclude any non-cash charges or losses and any non-cash income or gains, in each case, required to be included in net income of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as a result of the application of FASB Accounting Standards Codifications 718, 815, 410 and 360, but shall expressly include any cash charges or payments that have been incurred as a result of the termination of any Swap Contract.

“Obligations” means all advances to, and debts, liabilities, obligations, covenants and duties of, any Loan Party arising under any Loan Document or otherwise with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit, whether direct or indirect (including those acquired by assumption), or under any Swap Contract with any Lender Counterparty (including obligations under the Existing Swap Contracts and obligations arising under any transaction under any other Swap Contract

ELEVENTH AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT–PAGE 2

1.3 Mandatory Prepayments. Section 2.11(c) of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

(c) If the Borrower issues any Senior Notes permitted under Section 7.03(f) at any time a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans on the date the Borrower receives the net proceeds from the issuance of such Senior Notes in an amount sufficient to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency; provided that, in the event such Senior Notes are issued at any time Borrower is taking any action permitted pursuant to Section 2.11(a) to eliminate a Borrowing Base Deficiency arising for any reason other than any Disposition of Borrowing Base Properties, Borrower shall be deemed to have complied with this Section 2.11(c) with respect to the issuance of such Senior Notes if Borrower prepays the Loans with the net proceeds of such issuance of Senior Notes on the date it receives such net proceeds in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of such net proceeds and (ii) the amount required to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall be required to continue to comply with Section 2.11(a) with respect to any Borrowing Base Deficiency existing at the time of such issuance of Senior Notes for any reason other than any Disposition of Borrowing Base Properties.

(i) any such Swap Contract does not have a term greater than sixty (60) months from the date such Swap Contract is entered into;

(ii) at all times, on a net basis, (A) the aggregate notional volume for each of natural gas (including natural gas liquids) and crude oil, calculated separately, covered by market sensitive Swap Contracts for any month in the first year of the forthcoming five year period (other than Excluded Xxxxxx) shall not exceed 90% of the Projected Volume of natural gas (including natural gas liquids) and crude oil production, calculated separately, for each such month in such forthcoming period and (B) the aggregate notional volume for each of natural gas (including natural gas liquids) and crude oil, calculated separately, covered by market sensitive Swap Contracts for any month in each of the second through fifth years of the forthcoming five year period (other than Excluded Xxxxxx) shall not exceed 80% of the Projected Volume of natural gas (including natural gas liquids) and crude oil production, calculated separately, for each such month in such forthcoming period;

(iii) notwithstanding the limitations set forth in clause (ii) of this Section 7.12(a), in contemplation of an Acquisition, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may enter into additional market sensitive Swap Contracts such that the aggregate notional volumes for each of natural gas (including natural gas liquids) and crude oil, calculated separately, for each month in the forthcoming five year period covered by such additional market sensitive Swap Contracts do not exceed 70% of the Projected Volume of natural gas (including natural gas liquids) and crude oil production, calculated separately, from the estimated reserves to be acquired in such Acquisition for each month in such forthcoming period; provided such additional Swap Contracts are entered into (A) after the execution of a definitive agreement with respect to a proposed Acquisition, but in any event no earlier than 90 days prior to the proposed closing date of such Acquisition and (B) in the event such agreement is terminated or such Acquisition is otherwise not consummated within 90 days after such initial additional market sensitive Swap Contracts have been entered into (or such longer period as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent in the event the proposed closing of such Acquisition has been delayed beyond what the Borrower originally expected), then within 15 days after such termination or the end of such 90 day (or longer) period, as applicable, the Borrower shall and shall cause the Restricted Subsidiaries to novate, unwind or otherwise dispose of market sensitive Swap Contracts to the extent necessary to be in compliance with the limitations set forth in clause (ii) of this Section 7.12(a); and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from any Loan Party that is not an Eligible Contract Participant shall not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations owing to a Lender Counterparty (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Obligations other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this clause, the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to this Section 8.03 from amounts received from Eligible Contract Participants to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to Obligations described in above paragraphs of this Section 8.03 by Lender Counterparties that are the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other Obligations pursuant to the above paragraphs of this Section 8.03).

1.10 Amendments. Section 10.01(c) of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

(c) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement for any payment or mandatory prepayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to any Lender or any scheduled or mandatory reduction of the Commitment of any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

SECTION 2. Reaffirmation of Borrowing Base.
