The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that: (x) except to the extent otherwise expressly set forth in this Second Amendment, the Second Amendment Corporate HQ Waiver remains subject to all of the other applicable terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (y) the Second Amendment Corporate HQ Waiver is not (and shall not be deemed to be) applicable to any other Disposition of the Corporate Headquarters or to any other or future Disposition of any other Excluded Property, excepting only such sale and un-Affiliated leaseback of the Corporate Headquarters, as to the extent expressly set forth herein; and

(C) Without limitation of any of the foregoing, neither the aforesaid granting of the Second Amendment Waivers by the Administrative Agent and the applicable threshold of Lenders required in accordance with Section 10.02(b) of the Credit Agreement, nor any other fact or circumstance, is intended to, and shall not: (i) operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies now or hereafter available to Administrative Agent and the Lenders (whether pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, at law, in equity, and/or otherwise), with respect to any Default or Event of Default; or (ii) indicate agreement on the part of Administrative Agent and the Lenders to forbear from exercising any of its or their respective rights or remedies (with respect to any Default or Event of Default), except to the extent (if any) otherwise hereafter expressly agreed upon by Administrative Agent and the applicable threshold of Lenders required in accordance with Section 10.02(b) of the Credit Agreement for such purposes in a subsequent written instrument.

(v)the signing and delivery of this Second Amendment or any other Loan Document by the Credit Parties and such obligors’ performance of their respective obligations thereunder require no authorizations, approvals, or consents, or registrations or filings with, or further actions by, any Governmental Authority, except for those that have been obtained or made and are in effect; and

(vi) neither the signing and delivery of this Second Amendment or any other Loan Document, nor compliance with the terms or thereof, will contravene, or result in a breach of, the charter, by-laws, operating agreement, or other constituent Organizational Documents of any of the Credit Parties, any requirement of law, any agreement or instrument to which any such obligor is a party or by which it is bound or to which it or its Property or assets are subject, or constitute a default under any such agreement or instrument.

Each Lender at its option may, subject to Section 2.18(a), make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $500,000, or such other amount as is required to comply with the provisions of Section 2.01(b). At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $100,000, or such other amount as is required to comply with the provisions of Section 2.01(b). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of four Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

SECTION 2.03. Borrowing Base.

(a) Borrowing Base. The Borrowing Base in effect as of Second Amendment Effective Date (as was theretofore set by the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders, and as the same still now remains in effect), as acknowledged by the Borrowers, is $140,000,000. Such Borrowing Base shall continue to remain in effect until the next redetermination of the Borrowing Base made pursuant to this Section 2.03. The Borrowing Base shall be determined in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 2.03(e) and is subject to periodic redetermination pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below, and mandatory reductions pursuant to clause (d) below. No Borrowing Base redetermination was made in connection with either the First Amendment or the Second Amendment, respectively.

(b) Calculation of Borrowing Base.

(i) The Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders on or before each March 1st, beginning March 1, 2021, an Independent Reserve Report dated effective as of the immediately preceding December 31st, and such other information as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties included or to be included in the Borrowing Base. In the normal course of business (but in any event within 30 days after the Administrative Agent’s and the Revolving Lenders’ receipt of such Independent Reserve Report (and such additional Reserve Report, if any, required under the last sentence of subsection (iv) below) and other information), (A) the Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Revolving Lender the Administrative Agent’s recommendation for the redetermined Borrowing Base, (B) the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders shall redetermine the Borrowing Base in accordance with clause (e) below, and (C) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the amount of the Borrowing Base as so redetermined.

(ii) The Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on or before each September 1st, beginning September 1, 2020, an Internal Reserve Report or an Independent Reserve Report dated effective as of the immediately preceding June 30th and, in each instance, such other information as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties included or to be included in the Borrowing Base. In the normal course of business (but in any event within 30 days after the Administrative Agent’s and the Revolving Lenders’ receipt of such Internal Reserve Report or Internal Reserve Report (and such additional Reserve Report, if any, required under the last sentence of subsection (iv) below) and other information), (A) the Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Revolving Lender the Administrative Agent’s recommendation for the redetermined Borrowing Base, (B) the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders shall redetermine the Borrowing Base in accordance with clause (e) below, and (C) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the amount of the Borrowing Base as so redetermined; provided that no redetermination of the Borrowing Base (other than reductions pursuant to clause (d)) shall occur prior to the First Scheduled Borrowing Base Redetermination (absent the occurrence of any Event of Default).

(iii) In the event that the Company does not furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders the Independent Reserve Report, Internal Reserve Report or other information specified in clauses (i) and (ii) above by the date specified therein (or such additional Reserve Report, if any, required under the last sentence of subsection (iv) below), the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders may nonetheless redetermine the Borrowing Base and redesignate the Borrowing Base from time to time thereafter in their sole discretion (but subject to clause (e) below) until the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders receive the relevant Independent Reserve Report, Internal Reserve Report, or other information, as applicable, at which time the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders shall redetermine the Borrowing Base as otherwise specified in this Section.

(iv) Each delivery of a Reserve Report by the Company to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Company to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders that (A) the Borrowers and the Guarantors, as applicable, own the Oil and Gas Properties specified therein subject to an Acceptable Security Interest to the extent required hereunder (other than any thereof that have been Disposed of since the date of such Reserve Report in a Disposition permitted by this Agreement and noted to the Administrative Agent under the certificate required under Section 5.11(c)) and free and clear of any Liens (except Permitted Liens) and (B) to the knowledge of the Borrowers and the Guarantors on and as of the date of such Reserve Report, each material Oil and Gas Property identified as “proved, developed, producing” was developed for oil and gas, and the material xxxxx pertaining to such Oil and Gas Properties that are described therein as producing xxxxx (“Xxxxx”), were each producing oil and/or gas in paying quantities, except for Xxxxx that were utilized as water or gas injection xxxxx, carbon dioxide xxxxx or as water disposal xxxxx (each as noted in such Reserve Report) or xxxxx that were shut in for maintenance, repair or offset drilling activity (each as noted in such Reserve Report).

(c) Interim Redeterminations. In addition to the scheduled Borrowing Base redeterminations provided for in clause (b) above, commencing after the First Scheduled Borrowing Base Redetermination, the Borrowing Base may be further redetermined by the Revolving Lenders or the Borrowers as follows, in each case, based on such information as the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders deem relevant (but in accordance with clause (e) below):

(i) the Administrative Agent may, and shall at the request of the Majority Revolving Lenders, make one redetermination of the Borrowing Base during any six-month period between scheduled redeterminations; and

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrowers, make one redetermination of the Borrowing Base during any six-month period between scheduled redeterminations.

For the avoidance of doubt, such additional redeterminations of the Borrowing Base shall not constitute nor be construed as a consent to any transaction or proposed transaction that would not be permitted under the terms of this Agreement. The party requesting the redetermination under this clause (c) shall give the other party at least 5 days’ prior written notice that a redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this clause (c) is to be performed (or such shorter period as each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may agree to in their respective sole discretion); provided that, no such prior written notice shall be required for any redetermination made by the Revolving Lenders during the existence of a Default. In connection with any redetermination of the Borrowing Base under this clause (c), the Borrowers shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders with such information regarding the Borrowers’ and the Guarantors’ business (including, without limitation, its Oil and Gas Properties, the Proved Hydrocarbon Interests, and production relating thereto) as the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender may reasonably request; provided that, in the case of requests for an increase to the Borrowing Base of an amount in excess of 7.5% of the Borrowing Base then in effect, the request of an updated Independent Reserve Report shall be deemed to be reasonable. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company in writing of each redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this clause (c) and the amount of the Borrowing Base as so redetermined.

(d) Mandatory Reductions. Subject only to those certain exceptions from the following that are expressly provided for as part of the Second Amendment BB Reduction Waiver respecting such Disposition of those certain Second Amendment Release Oil and Gas Properties as have been duly approved by the Majority Lenders (as more particularly set forth within the Second Amendment), if any other Trigger Event has the effect of causing the sum of (i) the BB Value of all Dispositions of Oil and Gas Properties made since the date of the most recent Borrowing Base redetermination (including such Trigger Event), (ii) the BB Value of XX Xxxxxx which have been novated, assigned, unwound, terminated, expired or amended since the date of the most recent Borrowing Base redetermination less the BB Value of any new XX Xxxxxx concurrently put in place with the termination of such XX Xxxxxx since the most recent Borrowing Base redetermination (including such Trigger Event), and (iii) the BB Value attributed to Oil and Gas Properties subject to title defects not cured to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 5.12 within the 45-day period permitted under Section 5.12 (including such Trigger Event), to exceed 5% of the Borrowing Base then in effect, then effective as of the applicable Trigger Event Date, the Borrowing Base shall be automatically reduced by the BB Value of Oil and Gas Properties and/or XX Xxxxxx, as applicable, that are covered by such Trigger Event as determined by the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the mandatory reduction in the Borrowing Base required under this clause (d) shall not constitute nor be construed as a consent to any transaction or proposed transaction that would not be permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Standards for Redetermination. The Borrowing Base will be redetermined in accordance with this Section 2.03 on a semi-annual basis on each April 1st and October 1st, commencing with April 1, 2021. Each redetermination of the Borrowing Base by the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this Section shall be made (i) in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders (but in accordance with the other provisions of this clause (e)), (ii) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s and the Revolving Lenders’ usual and customary internal standards and practices for valuing and redetermining the value of Oil and Gas Properties in connection with reserve based oil and gas loan transactions, (iii) in conjunction with the most recent Independent Reserve Report or Internal Reserve Report, as applicable, or other information received by the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders relating to the Proved Hydrocarbon Interests of the Borrowers and the Guarantors, and (iv) based upon the estimated value of the Proved Hydrocarbon Interests owned by the Borrowers and the Guarantors as determined by the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders. In valuing and redetermining the Borrowing Base, the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders may also consider the business, financial condition, and Indebtedness obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors and such other factors as the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders customarily deem appropriate as part of their oil and gas lending criteria, including without limitation, commodity price assumptions, projections of production, operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, capital costs, working capital requirements, liquidity evaluations, dividend payments, environmental costs, and legal costs. In that regard, the Borrowers acknowledge that the determination of the Borrowing Base contains a value cushion (market value in excess of loan value), which is essential for the adequate protection of the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders. Subject to the last sentence of Section 5.18(a), to the extent a Proved Hydrocarbon Interest is not encumbered by an Acceptable Security Interest, such Proved Hydrocarbon Interest shall not be included or considered for inclusion in the Borrowing Base to the extent an Acceptable Security Interest thereon would be necessary to cause the Administrative Agent to have an Acceptable Security Interest in at least 90% (by value) of the Proved Hydrocarbon Interests and the Oil and Gas Properties relating thereto (i.e., the positive difference, if any, between 90% (by value) of the Proved Hydrocarbon Interests and the Oil and Gas Properties relating thereto and the percentage (by value) of such Proved Hydrocarbon Interests that are or will be substantially contemporaneously with such redetermination of the Borrowing Base encumbered by an Acceptable Security Interest).

At all times after the Administrative Agent has given the Borrowers notification of a redetermination of the Borrowing Base under this Section, the Borrowing Base shall be equal to the redetermined amount or such lesser amount irrevocably designated by the Borrowers in their sole discretion and disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders until the Borrowing Base is subsequently redetermined in accordance with this Section; provided that the Borrowers shall not request that the Borrowing Base be reduced to a level that would result in a Borrowing Base Deficiency (without giving effect to the proviso in the definition thereof). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) to the extent the redetermined Borrowing Base is less than or equal to the Borrowing Base in effect prior to such redetermination, such redetermined Borrowing Base must be approved by the Administrative Agent and the Supermajority Revolving Lenders, and (y) to the extent the redetermined Borrowing Base is greater than the Borrowing Base in effect prior to such redetermination, such redetermined Borrowing Base must be approved by the Administrative Agent and all of the Revolving Lenders.

SECTION 2.04. Method of Borrowing.

(a) Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Company, as the designated borrowing agent on behalf of all of the Borrowers, shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Tulsa time three business Days (or such shorter time period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Tulsa time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Company. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(A) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

(B) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(D) remittance instructions, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.06.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

(b) Conversions and Continuations. In order to elect to convert or continue a Revolving Loan under this paragraph, the Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election no later than (i) in the case of a proposed conversion to or continuation of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Tulsa time three Business Days (or such shorter time period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) before the date of the proposed conversion or continuation or (ii) in the case of a conversion to an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, Tulsa time, on the date of the proposed conversion. Each such telephonic Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Notice of Conversion or Continuation in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Company and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(A) the requested conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day),

(B) the amount and Type of the Loan to be converted or continued,

(D) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Loan, the requested Interest Period.

Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation under this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall provide each applicable Lender with a copy thereof and, in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of a Eurodollar Loan, notify each applicable Lender of the applicable interest rate. The portion of Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing that are converted to Loans of another Type shall constitute a new Borrowing.

SECTION 2.05. Letters of Credit.

(a) The Issuer, the Revolving Lenders, and the Borrowers each agrees that effective as of the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.05, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date, to issue, increase, extend, amend, renew, replace, or refinance the Expiration Date of Letters of Credit for the account of any Credit Party, provided that no Letter of Credit will be issued, increased, amended, renewed, replaced, refinanced or extended:

(i) if such issuance, increase, amendment, renewal, replacement, refinancing or extension would cause the Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the lesser of (A) the lesser of (1) $14,000,000 and (2) 10% of the Borrowing Base then in effect and (B) an amount equal to (1) the Revolving Commitments in effect at such time minus (2) the sum of the aggregate outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations;

(ii) if a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists at such time or would result therefrom;

(iii) unless such Letter of Credit has an Expiration Date not later than the earlier of (A) 18 months after its issuance or extension and (B) five Business Days prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date; provided that (1) if the Revolving Commitments are terminated in whole pursuant to Section 2.08, the Borrowers shall either (A) deposit into the Cash Collateral Account cash in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure for the Letters of Credit which have an expiry date beyond the date the Commitments are terminated or (B) provide a replacement letter of credit (or other security) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuer in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure for such Letters of Credit which have an expiry date beyond the date the Revolving Commitments are terminated, and (2) any such Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may expressly provide for an automatic extension of one additional year so long as such Letter of Credit expressly allows the Issuer, at its sole discretion, to elect not to provide such extension within the time periods agreed to in the applicable Letter of Credit; provided that, in any event, such automatic extension may not result in an Expiration Date that occurs after the fifth Business Day prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date;

(iv) unless such Letter of Credit is a standby letter of credit not supporting the repayment of indebtedness for borrowed money of any Person;

(v) unless such Letter of Credit is in form and substance acceptable to the applicable Issuer in its sole discretion;

(vi) unless the applicable Borrower has delivered to the applicable Issuer a completed and executed Letter of Credit Application and/or other documentation required in connection with such issuance, increase, amendment, renewal, replacement, refinancing or extension;

(vii) unless such Letter of Credit is governed by (A) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, or (B) the International Standby Practices (ISP98), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590, in either case, including any subsequent revisions thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce and adhered to by the applicable Issuer;

(viii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the applicable Issuer from issuing, increasing, amending, renewing, replacing, refinancing or extending such Letter of Credit, or any legal requirement applicable to the applicable Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such Issuer refrain from, the issuance, increase, amendment, renewal, replacement, refinancing or extension of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the date hereof, or shall impose upon such Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the date hereof and which such Issuer deems material to it;

(ix) if issuance, increase, amendment, renewal, replacement, refinancing or extension of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the applicable Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally;

(x) if such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars;

(xi) if such Letter of Credit supports the obligations of any Person in respect of (x) a lease of real property, or (y) an employment contract if the Issuer reasonably determines that the applicable Borrower’s obligation to reimburse any draws under such Letter of Credit may be limited;

(xii) any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless such Defaulting Lender’s Fronting Exposure as to Letters of Credit has been fully reallocated or Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 2.20 below or the applicable Issuer has entered into other satisfactory arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender to eliminate such Issuer’s risk with respect to such Lender; or

(xiii) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are not satisfied.

(b) Upon the date of the issuance, increase, amendment, renewal, replacement, refinancing or extension of a Letter of Credit or the deemed issuance of the Existing Letters of Credit under Section 2.05(a), the Issuer shall be deemed to have sold to each other Revolving Lender and each other Revolving Lender shall have been deemed to have purchased from the Issuer a participation in the related Letter of Credit Obligations equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage at such date and such sale and purchase shall otherwise be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Issuer shall promptly notify each such participant Revolving Lender by facsimile, telephone, or electronic mail (PDF) of each Letter of Credit issued or increased and the actual dollar amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit; provided that failure of the Issuer to notify the Revolving Lenders in accordance with this clause (b) shall in no way release, discharge, or otherwise extinguish any Revolving Lender’s obligation

from funding its participation to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer in accordance with this Section.

(c) A Letter of Credit (other than the issuance of Existing Letters of Credit which are deemed issued hereunder) shall be issued, increased, amended, renewed, replaced, refinanced or extended pursuant to a Letter of Credit Application given by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuer by facsimile, electronic mail or other writing not later than 11:00 a.m. (Tulsa time) at least one Business Day before the proposed date of issuance, increase, or extension for the Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be fully completed and shall specify the information required therein. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be irrevocable and binding on the applicable Borrower.

(d) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Issuer in respect of any Letter of Credit in Dollars on the date that the Borrowers receive notice from such Issuer (or if such notice is not received prior to 1:00 p.m. Tulsa time on any Business Day, then no later than the next succeeding Business Day) that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit, irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Borrower may have at any time against such Issuer or any other Person.

(e) If any Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and a Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuer pursuant to the foregoing clause (d) or any such payment in respect thereof is rescinded or set aside for any reason, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be immediately due and payable with interest thereon computed at the rate of interest per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable during such period to Loans that are Eurodollar Loans plus 3.00%, and such Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of such failure, and each Revolving Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage in Dollars and in immediately available funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Revolving Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. Tulsa time on any Business Day, such Revolving Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Applicable Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence (or, if such notice is not received prior to 1:00 p.m. Tulsa time on any Business Day, then no later than the next succeeding Business Day). Whenever the Issuer receives from a Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuer any payment from a Revolving Lender pursuant to this clause (e), such Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Revolving Lender in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts the Revolving Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation.

(f) Each Borrower’s obligation to pay each Reimbursement Obligation and the obligations of the applicable Revolving Lenders to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, the existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency, and irrespective of any of the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, any Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or

(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuer, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to a Borrower or any Lender. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever. Any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in any case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this clause (f) shall be deemed to release any Issuer from liability with respect to its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(g) If and to the extent any Revolving Lender shall not have so made its Applicable Percentage of the amount of the payment required by clause (e) above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuer, such Revolving Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer forthwith on demand any amount so unpaid together with interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due at the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter until such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, at the rate per annum applicable to Eurodollar Loans. The failure of any Revolving Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuer its Applicable Percentage of any such payment shall not relieve any other Revolving Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Applicable Percentage of any payment on the date such payment is to be made, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer such other Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any such payment.

(h) The Borrowers shall furnish the Administrative Agent with (i) a copy of each Letter of Credit promptly upon the issuance, increase, amendment, renewal, replacement, refinancing or extension of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a copy of any amendment to such Letter of Credit promptly upon the effectiveness of such amendment.

(i) The rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of Issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

(j) If (i) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Company receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Majority Revolving Lenders demanding the deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to this clause (j), (ii) the Borrowers are required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to the Letter of Credit Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(a), or (iii) the Borrowers are required to Cash Collateralize a Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to Section 2.19(a), then the Borrowers shall pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent (as a first priority, perfected security interest), for the benefit of the Issuer, at a location and pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, an amount in cash in dollars equal to such Letter of Credit Exposure or excess attributable to such Letter of Credit Exposure, as the case may be, as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuer and the Lenders, an exclusive first priority and continuing perfected security interest in and Lien on such account and all cash, checks, drafts, certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time deposited or held in such account, all deposits or wire transfers made thereto, any and all investments purchased with funds deposited in such account, all interest, dividends, cash, instruments, financial assets and other Property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise payable in respect of, or in exchange for, any or all of the foregoing, and all proceeds, products, accessions, rents, profits, income and benefits therefrom, and any substitutions and replacements therefor. The Borrowers’ obligations to deposit amounts pursuant to this clause (j) shall be absolute and unconditional, without regard to whether any beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit has attempted to draw down all or a portion of such amount under the terms of a Letter of Credit, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be subject to any defense or be affected by a right of set-off, counterclaim or recoupment which any Credit Party may now or hereafter have against any such beneficiary, any Issuer, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person for any reason whatsoever. Such deposit shall be held as collateral securing the payment and performance of any Borrower’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account; provided that investments of funds in such account in investments permitted by clause (a) or (c) under “Permitted Investments” may be made at the option of the Borrowers at their direction, risk and expense. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse, on a pro rata basis, the Issuer for Reimbursement Obligations and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the Letter of Credit Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors, if any, under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of Cash Collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or pursuant to Section 2.20 as a result of a Defaulting Lender, and the Borrowers are not otherwise required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to a Letter of Credit Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(a), then such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived or the events giving rise to such Cash Collateralization pursuant to Section 2.20 have been satisfied or resolved.

SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., Tulsa time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrowers maintained with the Administrative Agent designated by the Borrowers in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Eurodollar Borrowing or prior to 1:00 p.m., Tulsa time, on the date any proposed ABR Borrowing, as applicable, that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith within two Business Days after demand therefor such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, 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 or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrowers may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as provided in this Section. The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Company, as the designated borrowing agent on behalf of all of the Borrowers, shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.04 if the Borrowers were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Company.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; and

(iii) with respect to any Borrowing, whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Company fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default or Borrowing Base Deficiency has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of Default or a Borrowing Base Deficiency is continuing (A) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (B) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts.

(a) RESERVED.

(b) Revolving Commitments.

(i) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. If at any time the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts or the Borrowing Base is terminated or reduced to zero, then the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the effective date of such termination or reduction.

(ii) The Borrowers may at any time terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts; provided that (i) each reduction of the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Outstandings would exceed the total aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts, as so reduced.

(iii) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts under paragraph (b) of this Section at least one (1) Business Day 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 Revolving Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (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 aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts shall be permanent. Each reduction of the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts shall be made ratably among the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentage of aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts.

SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Revolving Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans on the Maturity Date.

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) The Indebtedness of the Borrowers to each Revolving Lender resulting (i) from Revolving Loans owing to such Revolving Lender shall be evidenced by a Revolving Note, if requested by such Revolving Lender.

Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if requested by such payee, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) Borrowing Base Deficiency.

(A) Other than as provided in clause (B) below, if a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the Company shall take any of the following actions (and the failure of the Company to take such actions to remedy such Borrowing Base Deficiency shall constitute an election of clause (3) below):

(1) prepay the Revolving Loans or, if the Revolving Loans have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure, such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within 30 days after the date of such deficiency;

(2) (a) deliver, within 10 days after the date such deficiency notice is received by the Company from the Administrative Agent, written notice to the Administrative Agent indicating the Company’s election to pledge as Collateral for the Obligations additional Oil and Gas Properties reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Supermajority Revolving Lenders such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within 30 days after the date of such deficiency and (b) provide such pledge of additional Oil and Gas Properties within such time period (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent);

(3) (a) deliver, within 10 days after the date such deficiency notice is received by the Company from the Administrative Agent, written notice to the Administrative Agent indicating the Company’s election to first, repay the Revolving Loans, and second, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure, each in six monthly installments equal to one-sixth of such Borrowing Base Deficiency with the first such installment due 30 days after the date of such deficiency, and each following installment due 30 days after the preceding installment is due (or if earlier, made) and (b) make such payments and deposits within such time periods; or

(4) (a) deliver, within 10 days after the date such deficiency notice is received by the Company from the Administrative Agent, written notice to the Administrative Agent indicating the Company’s election to combine the options provided in clauses (2) and (3) above, and also indicating the amount to be prepaid in installments and the amount to be provided as additional Collateral, and (b) make such six equal consecutive monthly installments and deliver such additional Collateral within the time required under clauses (2) and (3) above.

For the avoidance of doubt, (x) unless the Company delivers the requisite written notice to the Administrative Agent of its election under clause (2), (3) or (4) above, the Company is deemed to have elected to cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency as provided in clause (3) above, (y) if a scheduled Borrowing Base redetermination, a Borrowing Base redetermination allowed under Section 2.03(c), or a Borrowing Base redetermination on account of title defects in connection with the Oil and Gas Properties given BB Value (each, an “Additional Trigger”) occurs during the existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency and an incremental Borrowing Base Deficiency amount results as a result of such Additional Trigger, then the Borrowers shall remedy such incremental Borrowing Base Deficiency pursuant to the terms of this clause (a)(i), including, if selected by the Borrowers, with additional six monthly installments as to such incremental amount, and (z) in any event, all outstanding Revolving Loans shall be paid in full on the Maturity Date and all Letter of Credit Exposure shall be Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to 105% of all Letter of Credit Exposure on the Maturity Date.

(B) If the Borrowing Base is reduced under Section 2.03(d) and such reduction results in a Borrowing Base Deficiency, then the Company shall (1) with respect to a Disposition, prepay the Revolving Loans or, if the Revolving Loans have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral for all Letter of Credit Exposure, such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within one Business Day after the date the proceeds of such Disposition are received and (2) with respect to a Hedge Event, prepay Revolving Loans or, if the Revolving Loans have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure, such that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured on the Business Day the proceeds of such Hedge Event are received.

(C) Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.10(a) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.15 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date. Each prepayment under this Section 2.10(a) shall be applied to the Revolving Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent and agreed to by the Revolving Lenders in their sole discretion.

(ii) RESERVED.

(iii) Excess Cash. If, at any time when Exposure is greater than zero, the Consolidated Cash Balance exceeds $15,000,000 (the amount of such excess being referred to as the “Excess Cash”) as of the end of the last Business Day of any calendar month, then, on the immediately following Excess Cash Sweep Date, the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of all such Excess Cash, applied as follows: first, to the Revolving Loans until no Revolving Loans are outstanding, second to the Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, such prepayment under this Section 2.10(a)(iii) shall be without duplication, and shall take into account in the determination of any Excess Cash, the amounts required to be applied to one or more mandatory prepayment requirements in this Section 2.10(a). Concurrently with the making of such prepayment the Borrowers shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a report in reasonable detail (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent) setting forth the computation of Excess Cash on such Business Day.

(iv) Reduction of Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts. On the date of each reduction of the aggregate Maximum Revolving Credit Amounts pursuant to Section 2.08(b), the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans, and if the Revolving Loans have been repaid in full, make deposits into the Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral for the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure, such that, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans plus the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure that has not been Cash Collateralized does not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, as so reduced. Each prepayment pursuant to this clause (iv) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.15 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date. Each prepayment under this clause (iv) shall be applied first to ABR Loans and then to Eurodollar Loans.

Amounts required to be Cash-Collateralized under this Section 2.10(a) are in addition to any other Cash-Collateral requirement hereunder, and no such other obligation shall be satisfied by deposits made pursuant to this Section 2.10(a).

(b) Optional Prepayments.

Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of the Borrowings or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08(b)(iii). Promptly following receipt of any such notice of prepayment, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowings 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 interest to the extent required by Section 2.12 and any amount payable under Section 2.15.

Accrued interest on the amount of all other Obligations shall be payable on demand from time to time as such Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(g) 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 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).

(a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(i) 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, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

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

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company, as designated borrowing agent on behalf of all Borrowers, and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company 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.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend this Agreement to replace LIBO Rate with a Replacement Rate. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrowers so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Majority Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBO Rate with a Replacement Rate pursuant to this clause (b) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Replacement Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this clause (b), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this clause (b).

SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profit Taxes) on its loan, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liability or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or 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 main¬taining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) 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, 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 could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers 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) 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 paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers 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 2.15. 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, but excluding payments made pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii)), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.08(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) 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 Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Borrowers 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 that 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 shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Taxes.

(a) General. Any and all payments by or on account of any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction and withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by any Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrowers 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.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts paid or payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this clause (d) shall be paid within 10 days after a certificate as to the

amount of such payment or liability is delivered to the Company by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are paid or payable 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. The indemnity under this clause (e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent or the applicable Credit Party (as applicable) delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers (as applicable). Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(f) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to any payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences and except as otherwise required by applicable law, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.16(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) of this Section) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.16(f). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify such Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower and the Administrative Agent), duly completed and executed copies 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 such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of any 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 copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form 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, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form 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) in the case of a Foreign Lender for whom payments under this Agreement constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, 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, both (x) an IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and (y) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the Beneficial Owner of payments made under this Agreement (including a partnership or a participating Lender) executed copies of (x) an IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its direct or indirect partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of such direct and indirect partners; or

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such 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 party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers and 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.15(f)(ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender and the Administrative Agent 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or such Other Taxes paid under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid to such indemnified party pursuant to this clause (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary in this clause (g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (g) to the extent that such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This clause (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the Discharge of Obligations.

SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 p.m. noon, Tulsa time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. 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 as set forth in Section 10.01(a), except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 and 9.03 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.

(b) Subject to Section 7.03, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) 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 of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion 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;

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 paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers 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 any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against any Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of any Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers 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 Borrowers have 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.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(e), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 10.03, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account over which the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections; in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, 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 (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender fails to execute an amendment or waiver with respect to the Loan Documents that is executed by the Supermajority Lenders, then the Borrowers 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 10.04), 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 Borrowers 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, 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 Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, 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 Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.19. Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. At any time that there shall exist a Revolving Lender that is a Defaulting Lender, promptly (but in any event within five Business Days) after the request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuer, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.20(b) and any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked deposit or securities accounts at the Administrative Agent. To the extent provided by the Borrowers, the Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Revolving Lender, such Revolving Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuer and the Revolving Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit and securities accounts and all balances therein, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, and to maintain such security interest as a first-priority security interest, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (c) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrowers or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly (but in any event within five Business Days) after demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided hereunder in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which such Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the Revolving Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.04(b)) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, that (x) Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Credit Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.19 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 7.03) and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the relevant Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

SECTION 2.20. 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:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11;

(b) for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Lender that is a non-Defaulting Lender to fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.05, the “Applicable Percentage” of each Lender that is a non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of a non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Letter of Credit Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations of that Lender;

(c) if the reallocation described in clause (b) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, then the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent Cash Collateralize for the benefit of the Issuer only the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (b)) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05 for so long as such Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding and the relevant Defaulting Lender remains a Defaulting Lender;

(d) (i) if the Borrowers Cash Collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to clause (c), then the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is Cash Collateralized; (ii) if the Letter of Credit Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (b), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and (b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; or (iii) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to clause (b) or (c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuer or any Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such Letter of Credit Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuer until such Letter of Credit Exposure is Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated;

(e) the Commitment and Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, the Majority Lenders, the Majority Revolving Lenders, the Supermajority Lenders, or the Supermajority Revolving Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.02); provided that (i) such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment may not be increased or extended without its consent and (ii) the principal amount of, or interest or fees payable on, Loans may not be reduced or excused or the scheduled date of payment may not be postponed as to such Defaulting Lender without such Defaulting Lender’s consent; and

(f) no Issuer shall be required to issue, increase, amend, renew, replace, refinance or extend any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

(a) The Company has heretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet, and the related consolidated or condensed consolidated, as applicable, statements of income, cash flows and shareholders’ equity of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers, independent certified public accountants, certified by an Authorized Officer that such financial statements present fairly in all material respects, the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods.

In the event that the Oil and Gas Properties subject to an Acceptable Security Interest do not represent at least 90% of the Proved Hydrocarbon Interests and the Oil and Gas Properties relating thereto and 100% of the Original Mortgaged Properties (other than any Original Mortgaged Properties which are Disposed of as permitted under Section 6.13), then each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries that is a Credit Party to, grant to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days of the date the Reserve Report for such redetermination is required to be delivered (subject to the last sentence of this clause (a)), as security for the Obligations an Acceptable Security Interest on such Oil and Gas Properties not already subject to an Acceptable Security Interest such that after giving effect thereto, the Oil and Gas Properties subject to an Acceptable Security Interest will constitute at least 90% of the Proved Hydrocarbon Interests and the Oil and Gas Properties relating thereto and 100% of the Original Mortgaged Properties (other than such Original Mortgaged Properties which are Disposed of as permitted under Section 6.13). All such Liens will be created and perfected by and in accordance with the provisions of deeds of trust, security agreements and financing statements or other Collateral Documents, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in sufficient executed (and acknowledged where necessary or appropriate) counterparts for recording purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may agree to a later date for the Credit Parties to comply with this clause (a) so long as such later date is no later than 60 days after the otherwise required date, and (ii) in any event, if the Borrowing Base is to be redetermined on the date of an acquisition, the requirements on this clause (a) shall be satisfied on the date of such acquisition.

(b) Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each such Subsidiary to, grant to the Administrative Agent an Acceptable Security Interest in any Material Real Property (other than the Corporate Headquarters) acquired after the Closing Date by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries within thirty (30) days of such acquisition (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion), together with all items with respect to such Material Real Property (other than the Corporate Headquarters) as described in Section 4.01(g) and (h) and any other items as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Material Real Property.

(c) Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to, grant to the Administrative Agent an Acceptable Security Interest in all Property (other than Oil and Gas Properties, all real property, and Excluded Collateral) of any Credit Party or Subsidiary now owned or hereafter acquired, but as to any Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Closing Date, within the time frames required in Section 6.09.

SECTION 5.19. Accounts.

(a) Each of the Credit Parties shall maintain the following accounts with the Administrative Agent: (i) all primary operating, collection and deposit accounts (including, but not limited to, all such Deposit Accounts, Commodity Accounts and Securities Accounts) that are not Excluded Accounts, regardless of the balances thereof;

and (ii) all other accounts that are not Excluded Accounts with a balance of at least $250,000 individually and balances in the aggregate of at least $500,000 (including, but not limited to, all such Deposit Accounts, Commodity Accounts and Securities Accounts that are not Excluded Accounts). Except for those accounts more particularly described within the immediately preceding sentence, each other account that is not an Excluded Account that is maintained by any Credit Party shall be maintained with either the Administrative Agent or with a Permitted Third Party Bank.

(b) As of the Closing Date, each Credit Party shall cause each of its deposit, commodity and securities accounts (other than Excluded Accounts) to be subject to an Account Control Agreement. In the event any Credit Party creates or acquires any deposit account, commodity account, or securities account (in each case, other than an Excluded Account) after the Closing Date, such Credit Party shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such creation or acquisition (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) to deliver to the Administrative Agent an Account Control Agreement therefor.

The Borrowers shall (i) no later than five (5) Business Days after the First Amendment Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), enter into and at all times thereafter maintain, Swap Agreements at prices reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed that Swap Agreements in respect of (1) crude oil at prices no less per barrel than a minimum of ten percent (10%) below the prevailing West Texas Intermediate settlement price as published by the New York Mercantile Exchange at the time such trade is entered into, and (2) natural gas at prices no less per Million Metric British Thermal Unit than a minimum of ten percent (10%) below the prevailing Xxxxx Hub settlement price as published by the New York Mercantile Exchange at the time such trade is entered into (the minimum pricing set forth in preceding clauses (1) and (2) are herein referred to, together, as the “Minimum Swap Agreement Prices”) are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) in respect of crude oil and natural gas in notional volumes no less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the anticipated production from Proved Hydrocarbon Interests of the Credit Parties comprised of crude oil and natural gas classified as “proved developed producing” reserves as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report for a period through at least 12 months immediately following the First Amendment Effective Date, and (ii) no later than 15 calendar days after the First Amendment Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), enter into and at all times thereafter maintain, Swap Agreements at prices reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed that Swap Agreements in respect of crude oil and natural gas at prices of no less than the respective Minimum Swap Agreement Price are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) in respect of crude oil and natural gas in notional volumes no less than fifty percent (50%) of the anticipated production from Proved Hydrocarbon Interests of the Credit Parties comprised of crude oil and natural gas classified as “proved developed producing” reserves as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report for the period from 13 months immediately following the First Amendment Effective Date through at least 24 months immediately following the First Amendment Effective Date, in each case so long as an Approved Counterparty is available (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrowers) to enter into such Swap Agreements.

SECTION 5.22. Post-Closing Covenant. With respect to any Lender that did not receive its pro rata share of the Equity Exit Fee on the Closing Date in accordance with Section 4.01(x), the Borrowers shall cause the issuance of such Lender’s pro rata share of the Equity Exit Fee no later than five Business Days (or such later date as such Lender agrees in its discretion) after the date that such Lender returns the Distribution Registration Form to Prime Clerk.

(iii) any Credit Party or any Subsidiary may declare and pay dividends with respect to its Equity Interests payable solely in additional shares of its Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity Interests);

(iv) Subsidiaries of the Company may declare and pay dividends and distributions ratably with respect to their Equity Interests; and

(v) the Company may offer to redeem from each Lender that acquired any Equity Interests in the Company (as such Lender’s pro rata share of the Equity Exit Fee on the Closing Date in accordance with Section 4.01(x) and Section 5.22, respectively), all such Equity Interests issued to the Lenders (comprising 600,000 aggregate shares); provided, however, that (1) no Lender shall be required to accept such offer, and each such Lender shall make its own decision with respect thereto, in its sole discretion, (2) the maximum per share amount that the Company may offer any such Lender with respect to the redemption of such Equity Interests is $15.00/share, (3) the maximum aggregate amount that the Company may offer all such Lenders with respect to the redemption of such Equity Interests is $9,000,000, and (4) each Lender presently-holding any portion of the Equity Exit Fee shall be afforded the opportunity to participate in any such redemption offer on a ratable basis.

SECTION 6.11. Proceeds of Loans. No Borrower will permit the proceeds of the Loans to be used for any purpose other than as permitted under Section 5.08. No Credit Party and no Person acting on behalf of any Credit Party has taken or will take any action which might cause any of the Loan Documents to violate Regulation T, U or X or any other regulation of the Board or to violate Section 7 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any rule or regulation thereunder, in each case as now in effect or as the same may hereinafter be in effect.

Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, or the Issuer, as applicable, promptly upon demand for its Applicable Percentage (determined at the time such reimbursement is made) of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Administrative Agent, or the Issuer, as applicable, 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 its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Administrative Agent, or the Issuer, as applicable, is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers or another Credit Party.

ARTICLE IX

GUARANTY

SECTION 9.01. The Guaranty. Subject to Section 9.08 hereof, each Borrower and each Subsidiary thereof party hereto hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not as surety, jointly and severally, the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration, early termination, demand, declaration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter), and performance of, the Obligations, including but not limited to, any and all obligations owed to any Lender Swap Counterparty under each Lender Swap Agreement or any Bank Product Provider with respect to any Bank Product Obligations now or hereafter existing or and all renewals, rearrangements, increases, extensions for any period, substitutions, modifications, amendments or supplements in whole or in part of any of the Obligations, including, without limitation, any such Obligations incurred or accrued during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, whether or not allowed or allowable in such proceeding (including all such amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §362(a), and the operation of Sections 502(b) and 506(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §502(b) and §506(b)) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Upon failure by any Credit Party to pay when due any such amount, each of the Guarantors agrees that it shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and, if applicable, their Affiliates, the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Lender Swap Agreement, as the case may be. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each of the Guarantors waives any right to require the Secured Parties to xxx any Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 9.02. Guaranty Unconditional. Subject to Section 9.08 hereof, the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be unconditional, absolute and irrevocable and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise, or any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any Lender Swap Agreement;

(c) any addition, release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any obligation of the Borrowers under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Lender Swap Agreement, any document evidencing Bank Product Obligations, or any obligations of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender with respect to any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Borrower, or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Borrower, or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(e) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the Guarantors may have at any time against any Borrower, any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions;

(f) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Borrower, or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, for any reason related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Lender Swap Agreement, any Bank Product Obligations, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Borrower, or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Lender Swap Agreement, or any document evidencing Bank Product Obligations; or

(g) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder other than the Discharge of Obligations.

SECTION 9.03. Discharge Only Upon Payment In Full; Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances. Each of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until the Discharge of Obligations has occurred. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable by any Borrower or any other party under this Agreement, any Lender Swap Agreement, any document evidencing Bank Product Obligations, or any other Loan Document is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

SECTION 9.04. Waivers. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, diligence, promptness, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Borrower, any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other Person.

SECTION 9.05. Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby agrees not to assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim for subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or otherwise, against any other Guarantor arising out of or by reason of this Guaranty or the obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the payment or securing or purchasing of any of the Guaranteed Obligations by any of the Guarantors unless and until the Discharge of Obligations has occurred. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Discharge of Obligations has not occurred, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured; otherwise it shall be returned to remitter. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement, any other Loan Documents, each Lender Swap Agreement and that the waiver set forth in this Section 9.05 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

SECTION 9.06. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Lender Swap Agreement, and any documents evidencing the Bank Product Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by each of the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the written request of the Majority Lenders.

SECTION 9.07. Subordination of Indebtedness of any Guarantor to any other Guarantor to the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor agrees that:

(a) Any indebtedness of any Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter owed to any Guarantor or any other Guarantor, respectively, is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.07.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if the Administrative Agent so requests, any such indebtedness of any Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter owed to any Guarantor or any other Guarantor, respectively, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor as trustee for the Secured Parties and shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in kind on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the obligations of any Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “indebtedness” as used in this Section 9.07 shall not include amounts owed by any Borrower or any Guarantor to any Guarantor or any other Guarantor, respectively, for payments made by a Guarantor for taxes, payroll obligations, third-party royalty obligations and operating expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, should any Guarantor fail to collect or enforce any such indebtedness of any Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter owed to such Guarantor or any other Guarantor and pay the proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent as each Guarantor’s attorney-in-fact may do such acts and sign such documents in such Guarantor’s name as the Administrative Agent considers necessary or desirable to effect such collection, enforcement and/or payment.

SECTION 9.08. Limitation on Obligations.

(a) The provisions of this Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section 9.08(a) with respect to the Maximum Liability of the Guarantors is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Guarantor or any other person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section 9.08(a) with respect to the Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law.

(b) Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor, and may exceed the aggregate Maximum Liability of all other Guarantors, without impairing this Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder. Nothing in this Section 9.08(b) shall be construed to increase any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

100

(c) In the event any Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Guaranty, each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Pro Rata Share” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For the purposes hereof, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Pro Rata Share” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from any Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantors, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Guarantors from any Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this Section 9.08(c) shall affect any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all the Guaranteed Obligations. The provisions of this Section 9.08(c) are for the benefit of both the Secured Parties and the Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

SECTION 9.09. Application of Payments. All payments held by the Administrative Agent or received by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party hereunder shall be applied by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party to payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in the order set forth in Section 7.03.

SECTION 9.10. No Waivers. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Guaranty, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Lender Swap Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

SECTION 9.11. No Duty to Advise. Each of the Guarantors assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each other Guarantor’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each of the Guarantors assumes and incurs under this Guaranty, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party has any duty to advise any of the Guarantors of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, 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) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Majority Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) (A) increase the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon (provided that the Majority Lenders can waive the increased 3.00% of the Default Rate) or reduce any Reimbursement Obligation payable to any Revolving Lender, or reduce any fees payable to any Lender hereunder, or (C) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Revolving Commitment (it being understood that waiver of any payment required by Section 2.10(a)(iii) will only require consent of the Majority Lenders), in each case without the written consent of such Lender or Issuer directly affected thereby (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of each such Lender or Issuer thereof);

(ii) (A) change Section 2.17(b) or (c) or Section 7.03 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, (B) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Applicable Percentage”, “Majority Lenders” or “Supermajority Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder (other than as expressly set forth in clause (iii)(B), (iv)(B), or (v) below), or (C) release any Credit Party from its obligations under the Loan Documents or release all or substantially all of the Collateral for the Obligations arising under this Agreement, except in connection with any sales, transfers, leases, dispositions or other transactions permitted by Section 6.03 or Section 6.13, in each case without the written consent of each Lender;

(iv) (A) decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base or (B) amend, waive or consent to depart from any other provision in this Agreement which expressly requires the consent of, or action or waiver by, the Supermajority Revolving Lenders, in each case without the written consent of the Supermajority Revolving Lenders;

(v) RESERVED.

(vi) (A) if there is any unused portion of the Revolving Commitments, any amendment, waiver or consent that has the effect of curing or waiving any Default shall require the consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders in addition to all other consents required hereunder, or (B) without limiting the generality of clause (ii) above, waive any condition set forth in Section 4.02 as to a Revolving Borrowing or a Letter of Credit, in each case without the written consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders;

(vii) RESERVED; or

(viii) change Section 7.03, this clause (viii), Section 10.14, the definition of “Discharge of Obligations” or any definition referenced therein in any manner adverse to a Lender, in each case without the written consent of such Lender;

provided, further, that no such agreement shall (x) amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, (y) release any of the Collateral, except in connection with any sales, transfers, leases, dispositions or other transactions permitted by Section 6.03 or Section 6.13, without the written consent of the Administrative Agent (it being acknowledged by the Credit Parties that the Administrative Agent may condition such consent on the Credit Parties having assigned, novated, terminated, unwound or otherwise obtained a release from any obligations or liabilities under Swap Agreements (or with respect to projected production of Hydrocarbons hedged thereunder) attributable to the Collateral to be released), or (z) amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Issuer hereunder without the prior written consent of the Issuer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except (a) that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (b) no amendment, waiver or consent may affect a Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders without the consent of such Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) any supplement to Schedule 3.24 (Accounts) 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, (B) the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of the Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Loan Document, and (C) the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (or other applicable Credit Party) may enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or enter into any agreement or instrument to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Property subject to or to become subject to Mortgages to secure the Obligations for the benefit of the Lenders or as required by any Governmental Requirement to give effect to, protect or otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under the Loan Documents without the consent of any Lender.

SECTION 10.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) Each Credit Party shall pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender (in the case of legal or consultancy fees, disbursements, charges and expenses, limited to: (i) all reasonable fees, disbursements, charges and expenses of Xxxxxxxxx LLP, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Lawyers PLLC, and one local counsel in each necessary jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuers, the Lender Swap Counterparties, and the Bank Product Providers taken as a whole, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to the affected parties similarly situated taken as a whole, and other reasonable legal or consultancy fees, expenses and disbursements of the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, the fees, disbursements, charges, and expenses of the Administrative Agent’s financial advisor, Huron Consulting Group, and other auditors, accountants, printers, insurance and environmental advisors, and consultants and agents, including any third party consultant engaged by the Administrative Agent to evaluate the Company and its

Subsidiaries) in its sole discretion, and (ii) all reasonable fees, disbursements, charges and expenses of each Lender and each Issuer in connection with the discussion, negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any documents in connection with any proposed financing of the Borrowers, including the Loan Documents and the funding of all Loans under this Agreement, such costs and expenses including due diligence, syndication of this Agreement (including printing, distribution and bank meeting) transportation, duplication, messenger, audit, insurance, appraisal and consultant costs and expenses, and all search, filing and recording fees, incurred or sustained by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, or the Issuers in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the administration of this Agreement and any amendments, modifications or waivers of any provision of the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby shall be consummated), or in connection with the interpretation, enforcement or protection of any of their rights and remedies under the Loan Documents including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans).

(b) EACH CREDIT PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH LENDER, EACH LENDER SWAP COUNTERPARTY, EACH BANK PRODUCT PROVIDER, THE ISSUER, AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING PERSONS (EACH SUCH PERSON BEING CALLED AN “INDEMNITEE”), AGAINST, AND HOLD EACH INDEMNITEE HARMLESS FROM, ANY AND ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES AND RELATED EXPENSES, INCLUDING THE REASONABLE FEES, CHARGES AND DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY FINANCIAL ADVISOR OR COUNSEL FOR ANY INDEMNITEE, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR AS A RESULT OF (I) THE EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (INCLUDING THE LENDER SWAP AGREEMENTS AND THE AGREEMENTS IN RESPECT OF THE BANK PRODUCT OBLIGATIONS), THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES HERETO OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, (II) ANY LOAN, LETTER OF CREDIT, OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREFROM , (III) ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED PRESENCE OR RELEASE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR FROM ANY PROPERTY OWNED OR OPERATED BY ANY OF THE CREDIT PARTIES, OR ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THE CREDIT PARTIES, OR (IV) 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; PROVIDED THAT SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT, AS TO ANY INDEMNITEE, BE AVAILABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES OR RELATED EXPENSES (I) ARE DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT TO HAVE RESULTED FROM THE FRAUD, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE (IT BEING ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED THAT IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT THE INDEMNITEES BE INDEMNIFIED IN THE CASE OF THEIR OWN NEGLIGENCE (OTHER THAN FRAUD, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT), REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH NEGLIGENCE IS SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, IMPUTED, JOINT OR TECHNICAL) OR (II) ARISE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY ONE INDEMNITEE AGAINST ANOTHER INDEMNITEE WHICH DOES NOT INVOLVE ANY ACT OR OMISSION BY ANY BORROWER ANY SUBSIDIARY OF ANY BORROWER (OTHER THAN ANY CLAIMS AGAINST BOKF IN ITS CAPACITY AS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR AN ARRANGER). IN THE CASE OF AN INVESTIGATION, LITIGATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING TO WHICH THE INDEMNITY IN THIS PARAGRAPH APPLIES, SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL BE EFFECTIVE WHETHER OR NOT SUCH INVESTIGATION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT BY ANY BORROWER, ANY OF ITS RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, SECURITY-HOLDERS OR CREDITORS, AN INDEMNITEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON, OR AN INDEMNITEE IS OTHERWISE A PARTY THERETO AND WHETHER OR NOT THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY ARE CONSUMMATED. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL ANY BORROWER BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY ANY INDEMNITEE.

105

To the extent that any Credit Party fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent 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 in its capacity as such. Paragraph (b) of this Section shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee or any party hereto, 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that a claim for indemnity under Section 10.03(b), to the extent covered thereby, is a claim of direct or actual damages and nothing contained in the foregoing sentence shall limit the Credit Parties’ indemnification obligations to the extent such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder.

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

SECTION 10.04. 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) no Credit Party may 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 a Credit Party 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. 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 paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuer 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 assignees 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 (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) the Borrowers, provided that no consent of the Borrowers shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided further that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) with respect to assignments of Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, the Issuer; and

(C) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans to an assignee that is a Revolving Lender, an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender, or an Approved Fund with respect to a Revolving Lender;

provided, however, that no Lender may assign 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) to any Borrower or any Affiliate thereof or any natural person (or any company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof), in each case, without the consent of all of the Lenders.

(1) RESERVED;

(2) the amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose shall include Revolving Loans outstanding) 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 $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrowers shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more individuals to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Credit Parties and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, 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 Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 (with respect to amounts accruing during the period such Lender was a party hereto and for which such Lender was entitled to reimbursement or indemnity) and Section 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 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 paragraph (c) of this Section. If the consent of the Borrowers to an assignment is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment that does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified in this Section), the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given its consent ten days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrowers prior to such tenth day.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, 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 (and stated interest) 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 Borrowers, 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 Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

107

(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 paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.05(f), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 10.03, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than any Borrower or any Affiliate thereof or any natural person (or any company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof), 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 and (C) the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuer, 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 or instrument 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 or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.17 and 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) 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 Borrowers, 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 this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, or its other obligations under any this Agreement or any other Loan Document) 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.

(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 without limitation 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.

108

SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement 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 making of any Loans, regardless of any 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 Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 and Article VIII 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 or any provision hereof.

SECTION 10.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 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. 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 supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when 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 thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement 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; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, 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 at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against any of and all the obligations of any Credit Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA.

(b) EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR OKLAHOMA STATE COURT SITTING IN TULSA, OKLAHOMA, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY NOT BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

109

Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 10.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 10.11. 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 10.12. Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that (A) 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 and (B) in any event, any subsequent disclosure by its or its Affiliates’ directors, officers or employees shall be deemed to be, and treated as if it were, a disclosure by, as applicable, the Administrative Agent or such Lender), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory or self-regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (x) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (y) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Credit Party and its obligations, (vii) with the consent of the Borrowers or (viii) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Credit Parties. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower relating to any Credit Party or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Credit Party. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

(b) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 10.12(a) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWERS 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.

110

(c) ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY ANY CREDIT PARTY OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWERS, THE CREDIT PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWERS 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.

SECTION 10.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Each Credit Party, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders intend to strictly comply with all applicable laws, including applicable usury laws. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section 10.13 shall govern and control over every other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that conflicts or is inconsistent with this Section 10.13, even if such provision declares that it controls. As used in this Section 10.13, the term “interest” includes the aggregate of all charges, fees, benefits or other compensation which constitute interest under applicable law, provided that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense or as compensation for something other than the use, forbearance or detention of money and not as interest, and (b) all interest at any time contracted for, reserved, charged or received shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread, in equal parts during the full term of the Obligations. In no event shall any Credit Party or any other Person be obligated to pay, or any Lender have any right or privilege to reserve, receive or retain, (i) any interest in excess of the maximum amount of nonusurious interest permitted under the applicable laws (if any) of the United States or of any other applicable state or (ii) total interest in excess of the amount which such Lender could lawfully have contracted for, reserved, received, retained or charged had the interest been calculated for the full term of the Obligations at the Highest Lawful Rate. On each day, if any, that the interest rate (the “Stated Rate”) called for under this Agreement or any other Loan Document exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate at which interest shall accrue shall automatically be fixed by operation of this sentence at the Highest Lawful Rate for that day, and shall remain fixed at the Highest Lawful Rate for each day thereafter until the total amount of interest accrued equals the total amount of interest which would have accrued if there were no such ceiling rate as is imposed by this sentence. Thereafter, interest shall accrue at the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate when the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall again automatically operate to limit the interest accrual rate. The daily interest rates to be used in calculating interest at the Highest Lawful Rate shall be determined by dividing the applicable Highest Lawful Rate per annum by the number of days in the calendar year for which such calculation is being made. None of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document that directly or indirectly relate to interest shall ever be construed without reference to this Section 10.13, or be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money at an interest rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. If the term of any Obligation is shortened by reason of acceleration of maturity as a result of any Event of Default or by any other cause, or by reason of any required or permitted prepayment, and if for that (or any other) reason any Lender at any time, including but not limited to, the stated maturity, is owed or receives (and/or has received) interest in excess of interest calculated at the Highest Lawful Rate, then and in any such event all of any such excess interest shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration, prepayment or other event which produces the excess, and, if such excess interest has been paid to such Lender, it shall be credited pro tanto against the then-outstanding principal balance of the Borrower’s obligations to such Lender, effective as of the date or dates when the event occurs which causes it to be excess interest, until such excess is exhausted or all of such principal has been fully paid and satisfied, whichever occurs first, and any remaining balance of such excess shall be promptly refunded to its payor.

111

SECTION 10.14. Collateral Matters; Lender Swap Agreements. The benefit of the Collateral Documents and of the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Collateral shall also extend to, secure and be available on a pro rata basis to each Lender Swap Counterparty with respect to any obligations of any Credit Party arising under such Lender Swap Agreement but only to the extent such obligations arise from transactions entered into prior to the date such Lender Swap Counterparty ceases to be a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, without giving effect to any extension, increases, or modifications (including blending) thereof which are made after such Lender Swap Counterparty ceases to be a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender under this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any Lender Swap Agreement that remains secured after the counterparty thereto is no longer a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or the Discharge of Obligations has occurred, the provisions of Article VIII shall also continue to apply to such counterparty in consideration of its benefits hereunder and each such counterparty shall, if requested by the Administrative Agent, promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all such other documents, agreements and instruments reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence the continued applicability of the provisions of Article VIII. Notwithstanding the foregoing and other than as expressly provided herein, no Lender or Affiliate of a Lender (or former Lender or Affiliate of a former Lender) shall have any voting or consent right under this Agreement or any Collateral Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under a Lender Swap Agreement that is secured by any Collateral Document.

SECTION 10.15. 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 Borrowers, and no other Person (including, without limitation, any Subsidiary of any Borrower, 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, any other Agent, or any Lender for any reason whatsoever. There are no third party beneficiaries.

SECTION 10.16. Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

SECTION 10.17. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”) hereby notifies the Borrowers and the Guarantors that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers and the Guarantors, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and the Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers and the Guarantors in accordance with the Patriot Act.

112

SECTION 10.18. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 10.18, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

SECTION 10.19. NO ORAL AGREEMENTS. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

113

SECTION 10.20. Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends and restates the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety. Each Borrower hereby agrees that (a) the Indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement; together with the Existing Credit Agreement, the “Existing Credit Documents”) and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and (b) all accrued and unpaid fees under the Existing Credit Documents, shall be deemed to be outstanding under and governed by this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges, warrants, represents and agrees that this Agreement is not intended to be, and shall not be deemed or construed to be, a novation or release of the Existing Credit Documents. Each Lender which is a Lender under the Existing Credit Documents hereby waives any requirements for notice of prepayment, minimum amounts of prepayments of the loans thereunder, ratable reductions of the commitments of Lenders under the Existing Credit Documents and ratable payments on account of the principal or interest of any loan under the Existing Credit Documents to the extent that any such prepayment, reductions or payments are required to ensure that, upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the loans of the Lenders shall be outstanding on a ratable basis in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentage. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers to request Borrowings from Lenders, to make prepayment of the loans under the Existing Credit Documents and to reduce the commitments under the Existing Credit Documents among Lenders in order to ensure that, upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the loans of Lenders shall be outstanding on a ratable basis in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentage. The parties hereto confirm, ratify and reaffirm each of the Existing Credit Documents entered into prior to the Effective Date (but excluding the Existing Credit Agreement) and agree that such Existing Credit Documents continue to be legal, valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their terms (except to the extent, amended, restated and superseded in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby). The Borrowers, jointly and severally, represent and warrant that, as of the Effective Date, there are no claims or offsets against, or defenses or counterclaims to, their obligations (or the obligations of any Guarantor) under the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Existing Credit Documents.
