2.3 Amendment to Article I of the Credit Agreement. Article I of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to insert a new Section 1.06 and Section 1.07 immediately after Section 1.05 therein to each read in full as follows:
Section 1.06 Interest Rates; LIBOR Notifications. The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each
other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section 3.03(b) of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower in advance of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based and, to the extent any such change will result in the implementation of the Replacement Rate, the Replacement Rate will be established and implemented in accordance with Section 3.03(b) of this Agreement. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any Replacement Rate, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such Replacement Rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.
Section 1.07 Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.
2.4 Amendment to Section 8.01(o) of the Credit Agreement. Section 8.01(o) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete “Promptly” therein and insert the following immediately before “following any request therefor”:
“Know Your Customer” and Beneficial Ownership Information. Promptly
2.5 Amendment to Section 12.02(b) of the Credit Agreement. Section 12.02(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the introductory phrase “Notwithstanding Section 3.03” in the first sentence thereto and replacing it with “Subject to Section 3.03(b)”.
2.6 Amendment to Article XII of the Credit Agreement. Article XII of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to insert a new Section 12.21 immediately after Section 12.20 therein to read in full as follows:
Section 12.21 Certain ERISA Matters.
(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, the Other Agents and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:
(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Elected Commitments;
(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Elected Commitments and this Agreement;
(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Elected Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Elected Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Elected Commitments and this Agreement; or
(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.
(b) In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, the Other Agents and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Administrative Agent, the Other Agents nor any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, or administration and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Elected Commitments, and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).
2.7 Replacement of Annex I. Annex I to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety by replacing it with Annex I as attached to this First Amendment. After giving effect to this First Amendment and any Borrowings made on the First Amendment Effective Date, (i) each Lender (including the New Lender) who holds Loans in an aggregate amount less than its Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to this First Amendment) of all Loans shall advance new Loans which shall be disbursed to the Administrative Agent and used to repay Loans outstanding to each Lender who holds Loans in an aggregate amount greater than its Applicable Percentage of all Loans, (ii) each Lender’s participation in each Letter of Credit (after giving effect to this First Amendment), if any, shall be automatically adjusted to equal its Applicable Percentage, (iii) such other adjustments shall be made as the Administrative Agent shall specify so that the Revolving Credit Exposure applicable to each Lender equals its Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to this First Amendment) of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders, and (iv) upon request by each applicable Lender, the Borrower shall be required to make any break funding payments owing to such Lender that are required under Section 5.02 of the Credit Agreement as a result of the Loans and adjustments described in this Section 2.7.
2.8 Amendment to Schedule 7.14. Schedule 7.14 is hereby amended by deleting such Schedule in its entirety and replacing it with Schedule 7.14 attached hereto.
Section 3. Borrowing Base Redetermination and Aggregate Elected Commitment Amount. The Lenders (including the New Lender) hereby agree that (a) for the period from and including the First Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the next Redetermination Date, the amount of the Borrowing Base shall be increased from $1,500,000,000.00 to $1,600,000,000.00 and (b) the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall be increased from $1,000,000,000.00 to $1,200,000,000.00 effective as of the First Amendment Effective Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrowing Base may be subject to further adjustments from time to time pursuant to Section 2.07, Section 8.13(c), Section 9.02(i), or Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower and the Lenders hereby agree that the redetermination of the Borrowing Base in this Section 3 shall constitute the April 1, 2019 Scheduled Redetermination of the Borrowing Base. This Section 3 constitutes the New Borrowing Base Notice pursuant to Section 2.07(d) of the Credit Agreement for the April 1, 2019 Scheduled Redetermination of the Borrowing Base.
Section 4. Conditions Precedent. This First Amendment shall be effective upon the date of the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the following documents and satisfaction of the other conditions provided in this Section 4, each of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in form and substance:

Section 7. Miscellaneous.
7.1 Confirmation. The provisions of the Credit Agreement (as amended by this First Amendment) shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms following the effectiveness of this First Amendment. This First Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document.
7.2 No Waiver. Neither the execution by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders party hereto of this First Amendment, nor any other act or omission by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or their officers in connection herewith, shall be deemed a waiver by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any Defaults or Events of Default which may exist on or after the First Amendment Effective Date, which may have occurred prior to the date of the effectiveness of this First Amendment or which may occur in the future under the Credit Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents. Similarly, nothing contained in this First Amendment shall directly or indirectly in any way whatsoever either: (a) impair, prejudice or otherwise adversely affect the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ right at any time to exercise any right, privilege or remedy in connection with the Loan Documents with respect to any Default or Event of Default, (b) except as provided herein, amend or alter any provision of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any other contract or instrument, or (c) constitute any course of dealing or other basis for altering any obligation of the Borrower or any right, privilege or remedy of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any other contract or instrument. Nothing in this First Amendment shall be construed to be a consent by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any Default or Event of Default. Each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or any other word or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, and each reference in any other Loan Document to the Credit Agreement or any word or words of similar import shall be and mean a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.
7.3 Counterparts. This First Amendment 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 signature page to this First Amendment by facsimile transmission or other electronic transmission (including .pdf) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this First Amendment.
7.4 Expenses. As provided in Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement and subject to the limitations included therein, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, and execution of this First Amendment and all related documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges, and disbursements of outside counsel.
7.5 Successors and Assigns. This First Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
7.6 Severability. Any provision of this First Amendment 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 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.
7.7 No Oral Agreement. This First Amendment, the Credit Agreement and 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 hereto 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 First Amendment, the Credit 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.
