B. The Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent wish to, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, increase the Borrowing Base (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and make certain amendments to the Credit Agreements as provided herein.
THEREFORE, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, each of the terms defined in the opening paragraph and the Recitals above shall have the meanings herein assigned. Each term defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement, unless expressly provided to the contrary.
Section 2. Other Definitional Provisions. Article, Section, Schedule, and Exhibit references are to Articles and Sections of and Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified. All references to instruments, documents, contracts, and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, contracts, and agreements as the same may be amended, supplemented, and otherwise modified from time to time, unless otherwise specified. The words “hereof”, “herein”, and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The term “including” means “including, without limitation”. Paragraph headings have been inserted in this Agreement as a matter of convenience for reference only and it is agreed that such paragraph headings are not a part of this Agreement and shall not be used in the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.
Section 3. Borrowing Base Increase.
(a) Borrowing Base. Effective as of the date hereof, the Borrowing Base is hereby redetermined to be $2,750,000,000 and such Borrowing Base shall remain in effect at that level until the Borrowing Base is next redetermined pursuant to Section 2.02(b) or Section 2.02(c) of the Credit Agreement.
(b) Present Value. Effective as of the date hereof, the Present Value is hereby redetermined to be $5,617,145,000 and such Present Value shall remain in effect at that level until the Present Value is next redetermined pursuant to Section 2.02(d) of the Credit Agreement.
Section 4. Amendments.
(a) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new defined terms:
“Collateral Coverage Date” shall have the meaning given such term in Section 5.08.
“Collateral Coverage Period” shall have the meaning given such term in Section 5.08.
“Collateral Coverage Ratio” means, as of any date of determination, the ratio of (a) the Mortgaged Present Value to (b) the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base then in effect on the date of determination and (ii) the Aggregate Commitments at such date of determination.
“Mortgaged Present Value” means, as of any date of determination, the calculation of the present value (using the average of the discount rates then customarily utilized by the Administrative Agent for reserve valuation purposes, which, on the Effective Date, is a 9% discount rate) of the projected future net revenues attributable to the Mortgaged Present Value Production utilizing the price assumptions used by the Administrative Agent in evaluating its oil and gas loans generally; provided that, the portion of Mortgaged Present Value attributed to Proven Reserves which are not then categorized as “producing” shall not exceed 25% of the resulting total Mortgaged Present Value. For purposes of calculating “Mortgaged Present Value”, the present value of any Proven Reserves attributable to the Mortgaged Present Value Production which are then categorized as “proved developed non-producing” shall be risk-weighted by 25% and the present value of any Proven Reserves attributable to the Mortgaged Present Value Production which are then categorized as “proved undeveloped” shall be risk-weighted by 50%.
“Mortgaged Present Value Production” means, at any time of determination, the projected production of Hydrocarbons (measured by volume unit or BTU equivalent, not sales price) from properties and interests owned by any Obligor which are subject to an Acceptable Security Interest, as such production is projected in the most recent Engineering Report delivered pursuant to Section 5.06(c), after deducting projected production from any properties or interests sold or under contract for sale that had been included in such report and after adding projected production from any properties or interests that had not been reflected in such report but that are reflected in a separate or supplemental report which is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
“Super-Majority Borrowing Base Lenders” means, as of the date of determination, Lenders holding at least 90% of the aggregate Commitments on such date of determination, or if the Commitments have been terminated or expired, at least 90% of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances, Letter of Credit Exposure and Swing Line Advances (with the aggregate amount of each Lender’s risk participation and funded participation in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Advances being deemed to be “held” by such Lender for purposes of this definition) on such date of determination.
2
(b) Section 2.02(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the last sentence of clause (iii) in its entirety with the following:
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, the Borrower may not elect to convert to an Additional Covenant Period from a BB Period without the prior written consent of the Super-Majority Lenders.
(c) Section 2.02(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing clauses (i) and (ii) therein in their entirety with the following:
(b) Semi-Annual Redetermination of Borrowing Base.
(i) The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders on or before each March 31st (or April 30th in the event the Borrower is not then a public company required to file reports with the SEC) beginning March 31, 2013 (or April 30, 2013, if applicable), an Independent Engineering Report dated effective as of the immediately preceding December 31, and such other information as may be reasonably requested by any Lender with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties included or to be included in the Borrowing Base. Upon receipt of such information, the Administrative Agent shall, in the normal course of business (but in any event within 45 days after receipt of such information), make a determination of the Borrowing Base, which shall become effective upon approval by the Required Lenders (or the Super-Majority Borrowing Base Lenders if the Borrowing Base is to be increased) and subsequent written notification from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, and which, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be the basis on which the Borrowing Base shall thereafter be calculated until the effective date of the next redetermination of the Borrowing Base as set forth in this Section 2.02.
(ii) The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and each Lender on or before each September 30th (or October 31st in the event the Borrower is not then a public company required to file reports with the SEC), beginning September 30, 2012 (or October 31, 2012, if applicable) an Internal Engineering Report dated effective as of the immediately preceding June 30 and such other information as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties included or to be included in the Borrowing Base. Upon receipt of such information, the Administrative Agent shall, in the normal course of business (but in any event with 45 days after receipt of such information), make a determination of the Borrowing Base, which shall become effective upon approval by the Required Lenders (or the Super-Majority Borrowing Base Lenders if the Borrowing Base is to be increased) and subsequent written notification from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, and which, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be the basis on which the Borrowing Base shall thereafter be calculated until the effective date of the next redetermination of the Borrowing Base as set forth in this Section 2.02.

(d) Section 2.02(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing clause (iv)(A) in its entirety with the following:

(e) Section 2.02(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and replaced in its entirety with the following:

At all times during a BB Period, in addition to the Borrowing Base redeterminations provided for in Section 2.02(b), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may, either in their sole discretion or at the request of the Borrower and based on such information as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders deem relevant (but in accordance with Section 2.02(e)), make additional redeterminations of the Borrowing Base during any six-month period between scheduled redeterminations; provided that, neither the Administrative Agent and the Lenders nor the Borrower shall be permitted to request more than one such unscheduled redetermination during any six-month period between scheduled redeterminations, unless the redetermination is requested in connection with or as a result of an Acquisition or the acquisition of Oil and Gas Properties having a value in excess of 5% of the Present Value then in effect. Additionally, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may request an additional redetermination in connection with any sale or proposed sale of Oil and Gas Properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, which together with all such sales made since the most recent redetermination of the Borrowing Base, have a market value of equal to or greater than 5% of the Present Value then in effect to the extent any such sale is otherwise permitted by this Agreement. The party requesting the redetermination shall give the other party at least 10 days’ prior written notice that a redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this paragraph (c) is to be performed; provided that, no such prior written notice shall be required for any redetermination made by the Lenders during the existence of an Event of Default. In connection with any redetermination of the Borrowing Base under this Section 2.02(c), the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with such information regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries’ business (including its Oil and Gas Properties, the Proven Reserves, and production relating thereto) as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may request, including an updated Independent Engineering Report. Upon receipt of such information, the Administrative Agent shall, in the normal course of business (but in any event within 45 days after receipt of such information), make a determination of the Borrowing Base, which shall become effective upon approval by the Required Lenders (or the Super-Majority Borrowing Base Lenders if the Borrowing Base is to be increased). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of each redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to this Section 2.02(c) and the amount of the Borrowing Base as so redetermined.
4

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, any time that the Collateral Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.75 to 1.00, the provisions of this Section 5.08(a) shall not apply (any such period when this Section 5.08(a) does not apply being the “Collateral Coverage Period”).
(b) Further, if at any time during a Collateral Coverage Period the Collateral Coverage Ratio becomes less than 1.75 to 1.00 (the date of such occurrence being the “Collateral Coverage Date”), the Borrower shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to, no later than 120 days after the Collateral Coverage Date, either (i) grant to the Administrative Agent an Acceptable Security Interest in at least 80% (by value) of all of the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ Proven Reserves and associated Oil and Gas Properties, as determined by the most recently delivered Engineering Report, or (ii) grant to the Administrative Agent an Acceptable Security Interest in certain of the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ Proven Reserves and associated Oil and Gas Properties, as determined by the most recently delivered Engineering Report, such that the Collateral Coverage Ratio is at least 1.75 to 1.00; provided that, this requirement shall not apply during the Release Period.
