Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all computations and determinations as to accounting or financial matters and all financial statements to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP (including principles of consolidation where appropriate), and all accounting or financial terms shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms by GAAP; provided, however, that all accounting terms used in Section 8.2 [Negative Covenants] (and all defined terms used in the definition of any accounting term used in Section 8.2 [Negative Covenants] shall have the meaning given to such terms (and defined terms) under GAAP as in effect on the date hereof applied on a basis consistent with those used in preparing the Historical Statements referred to in Section 6.9(a) [Historical Statements]). If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided until so amended, (i) such

-47-

ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

1.4 Valuations.

Whenever this Agreement requires the determination of the monetary value of “other consideration,” a Guaranty, “other obligations” or an Investment and the computation method to determine such monetary value is not already addressed by GAAP, (i) the monetary value of “other consideration” or an Investment of tangible property shall be calculated as the Fair Market Value of such consideration or tangible property, (ii) the monetary value of any Guaranty at any time of a fixed monetary obligation shall be the amount of such fixed monetary obligation at such time, (iii) the monetary value of any Guaranty of a fixed stream of monetary obligations at any time shall be the present value of the remaining amounts of such stream of monetary obligations at such time discounted at a rate equal to the Borrower’s cost of funds at such time, (iv) the monetary value of a Guaranty of performance or of contingent liabilities at any time shall be the amount which, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing at the time, represent the amount which would reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured monetary obligation or liability of the Person making such Guaranty determined by such Person in good faith, or (v) the monetary value of “other obligations,” contingent or otherwise, at any time shall be the amount which, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing at the time, represent the amount which would reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured monetary obligation or liability of the Person who is obligated for such “other obligations.”

1.5 Letter of Credit Amounts.

Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such times.

1.6 Interest Rates.

The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” or with respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate therefor.

2. REVOLVING CREDIT AND SWING LOAN FACILITIES

2.1 Commitments.

2.1.1 Revolving Credit Loans.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof to, but not including, the Expiration Date; provided that after giving effect to each such Loan, (i) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure shall not exceed

-48-

such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) the Revolving Facility Usage shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments and (iii) the aggregate amount of Indebtedness under this Agreement shall not exceed the Applicable Notes Indenture Cap; provided, further, that (x) at the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with calculations and supporting information reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing compliance with clause (iii) and (y) notwithstanding the foregoing clause (x), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request such calculation or information or to determine compliance with clause (iii), and shall be fully entitled to assume (without any further investigation) that each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans complies with clause (iii) if the Borrower makes a Loan Request for such borrowing. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.1 [Revolving Credit Loans].

2.1.2 Swing Loans.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, and in order to facilitate loans and repayments between Settlement Dates, the Swingline Lender may, at its option, cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make swing loans (the “Swing Loans”) to the Borrower at any time or from time to time after the date hereof to, but not including, the Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of the Swingline Cap; provided that, after giving effect to each such Loan, (i) the Revolving Facility Usage shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the aggregate amount of Indebtedness under this Agreement shall not exceed the Applicable Notes Indenture Cap; provided, further, that (x) at the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent calculations and supporting information reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing compliance with clause (ii) and (y) notwithstanding the foregoing clause (x), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request such calculation or information or to determine compliance with clause (ii), and shall be fully entitled to assume (without any further investigation) that each borrowing of Swing Loans complies with clause (ii) if the Borrower borrows Swing Loans. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loans].

2.2 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans.

Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable Share. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date.

2.3 Commitment Fees.

Accruing from the date hereof until the Expiration Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, as consideration for such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) on the average daily difference between the amount of (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment as the same may be constituted from time to time and (b) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure (for purposes of this computation, Swing Loans shall not be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Revolving Credit Commitment); provided, however, that any Commitment Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the

-49-

time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no Commitment Fee shall accrue with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Subject to the proviso in the directly preceding sentence, all Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date.

2.4 Commitment Reduction.

2.4.1 Voluntary.

The Borrower shall have the right any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty, upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent to permanently reduce, in whole multiples of $5,000,000, or terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced pursuant to this Section 2.4.1 below the Revolving Facility Usage. All notices to reduce Revolving Credit Commitments shall be irrevocable, except that any such notice may state that it is conditional upon the consummation of a financing transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked or delayed by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of reduction) if such condition is not satisfied.

2.4.2 Mandatory.

The Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Expiration Date.

2.4.3 Effect of Commitment Reduction.

Each reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall ratably reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders. Any reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be accompanied by (a) the payment in full of any Commitment Fee then accrued on the amount of such reduction or termination and (b) to the extent that the Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment as so reduced or terminated, first, the prepayment of Swing Loans, second, the prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans and third, the Cash Collateralization for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders (ratably among the Issuing Lenders) of the Borrower’s obligation under Letter of Credit Obligations (in an aggregate amount under the foregoing first, second and third clauses, equal to such excess), together with the full amount of interest accrued on the principal sum of Revolving Credit Loans to be prepaid (and all amounts referred to in Section 5.9 [Indemnity] hereof). From the effective date of any such reduction or termination, so long as any and all payments, prepayments and Cash Collateralizations required by either of the immediately preceding clauses (a) or (b) shall have been made in full, the Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.3 [Commitment Fees] shall correspondingly be reduced or cease to accrue.

2.5 Loan Requests.

2.5.1 Revolving Credit Loan Requests.

Except as otherwise provided herein, subject to the notice requirements set forth in this Section 2.5.1 and the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans, or renew or convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], by delivering to the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans to which the LIBOR

-50-

Rate Option applies or the conversion to or the renewal of the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans; and (ii) the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies or the last day of the preceding Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan, of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5.1 or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing in such form and delivered by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format) (each, a “Loan Request”); it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify or certify, as applicable (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche, which amount shall be in (x) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche under the LIBOR Rate Option and (y) an integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than the lesser of $500,000 or the maximum amount available for Borrowing Tranches to which the Base Rate Option applies; (iii) whether the LIBOR Rate Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the applicable Borrowing Tranche; and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing Tranche to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche.

2.5.2 Swing Loan Requests.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Swingline Lender to make Swing Loans by delivery to the Swingline Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed Borrowing Date of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.5.2 hereto or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing in such form and delivered by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format) (each, a “Swing Loan Request”); it being understood that the Swingline Lender may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Swing Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed Borrowing Date and the principal amount of such Swing Loan, which shall be in integral multiples of $50,000 and shall be not less than $100,000.

2.6 Making and Repayment of Loans.

2.6.1 Making Revolving Credit Loans.

The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information provided by the Borrower and the apportionment among the Lenders of the requested Revolving Credit Loans as determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 2.6.2 [Presumptions by the Administrative Agent]. Each Lender may, at its option, make any 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 in any manner the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

-51-

2.6.2 Presumptions by the Administrative Agent.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. on the proposed date of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.6.1 [Making Revolving Credit Loans] and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by 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 and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

2.6.3 Making Swing Loans.

So long as the Swingline Lender elects to make Swing Loans, the Swingline Lender shall, after receipt by it of a Swing Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5.2 [Swing Loan Requests], fund such Swing Loan to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 3:00 p.m. on the Borrowing Date.

2.6.4 Repayment of Loans.

The Borrower shall repay all Loans together with all outstanding interest thereon on the Expiration Date.

2.7 Notes.

2.7.1 Revolving Credit Notes.

If requested by any Lender, the obligation of the Borrower to repay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to it by such Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of such Lender in a face amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender. The Revolving Credit Loans shall mature, and the Borrower unconditionally agrees to pay in full the unpaid principal amount and all amounts outstanding and unpaid in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, on the Expiration Date.

2.7.2 Swing Loan Note.

The obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Swing Loans made to it by the Swingline Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a Swing Loan Note payable to the order of the Swingline Lender in a face amount equal to the Swingline Cap.

-52-

2.8 Use of Proceeds.

The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans will be used in accordance with Section 8.1.11 [Use of Proceeds].

2.9 [Reserved].

2.10 Letters of Credit.

2.10.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(a) The Borrower may at any time prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date request the issuance of a letter of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”), for its own account or the account of any Restricted Subsidiary, or the amendment or extension of an existing Letter of Credit, by delivering or transmitting by facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format), to an Issuing Lender selected by the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a completed application for letter of credit, or request for such amendment or extension, as applicable, signed by the Borrower (or the Midstream GP Entity, on behalf of the Borrower) (and, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary, also signed by such Restricted Subsidiary) and otherwise in such form as such Issuing Lender may specify from time to time by no later than 10:00 a.m. at least five (5) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The Borrower shall authorize and direct each Issuing Lender to name the Borrower as the “Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit and, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary, to name such Restricted Subsidiary as the “Co-Applicant” of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after receipt of any letter of credit application, such Issuing Lender shall confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit application and if not, such Issuing Lender will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Letters of Credit may be issued in the form of a Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit; provided that in no event shall Credit Suisse AG or Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA be required to issue any Commercial Letter of Credit. Letters of Credit shall be issued only in U.S. Dollars. For the avoidance of doubt, the Loan Parties acknowledge that each Letter of Credit issued for the account of Persons other than the Loan Parties shall constitute an Investment and Guaranty in an amount equal to the face amount of such Letter of Credit, without duplication, and shall be subject to the limitations set forth herein.

(b) Unless an Issuing Lender has received notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] are not satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on (among other things) the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.10 [Letters of Credit], such Issuing Lender or any of such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates will issue the proposed Letter of Credit or agree to such amendment or extension; provided that after giving effect thereto:

(i) no Letter of Credit shall expire later than the earlier of (x) subject to Section 2.10.1(c) [Issuance of Letters of Credit], twelve (12) months from the date of issuance or extension, unless the applicable Issuing Lender agrees, and (y) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless the applicable Issuing Lender agrees and the Borrower complies with the requirements of Section 2.10.10 [Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date]; and

-53-

(ii) in no event shall (x) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations exceed the Letter of Credit Aggregate Sublimit at any one time outstanding, (y) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding by any Issuing Lender exceed its Letter of Credit Issuing Lender Sublimit at any one time (unless otherwise agreed to by such Issuing Lender) or (z) the Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments.

Each request for the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that it shall be in compliance with the preceding sentence and with Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(c) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable request for a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender may, in its discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] are not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Lender not to permit such extension.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 2.10.1(a) [Issuance of Letters of Credit], no Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Official Body or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Official Body with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it, or (ii) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally.

(e) On the Closing Date, the outstanding letters of credit previously issued under the Existing Credit Agreement by a Lender (or an Affiliate thereof) hereunder as of the Closing Date and that are set forth on Schedule 2.10.1 (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) will automatically, without any action

-54-

on the part of any Person, be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the outstanding letters of credit previously issued by an “L/C Issuer” under the Existing Credit Agreement by a Person that is not a Lender (or an Affiliate thereof) hereunder as of the Closing Date will not be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder.

2.10.2 Letter of Credit Fees.

The Borrower shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate on the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit, and (ii) to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum on the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender. All Letter of Credit Fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed and shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date following issuance of each Letter of Credit; provided, however, that fronting fees on Commercial Letters of Credit shall be payable at the time of issuance. The Borrower shall also pay to each Issuing Lender for such Issuing Lender’s sole account such Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender as such Issuing Lender may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, extension, renewal, amendment (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.

2.10.3 Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement.

(a) Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

(b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. The Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) such Issuing Lender prior to 12:00 noon on the next Business Day following the date that the Borrower has received such notice from such Issuing Lender (each such date, a “Reimbursement Date”) by paying to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender an amount equal to the amount so paid by such Issuing Lender plus interest at the interest rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option from the date on which the amount was paid by such Issuing Lender to the date such Issuing Lender is reimbursed, unless otherwise required by the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse such Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent) for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon on the Reimbursement Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and each such Lender’s Ratable Share of the amount of such drawing. Any notice given by the Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10.3(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(c) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.10.3(b) [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement] make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the amount of the drawing,

-55-

whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Reimbursement Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Reimbursement Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days following the Reimbursement Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Reimbursement Date. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.10.3, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this Section 2.10.3(c) to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Lender and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10.3(c) to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. The Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender will promptly give notice (as described in Section 2.10.3(b) [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement] above) of the occurrence of the Reimbursement Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender to give any such notice on the Reimbursement Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 2.10.3(c) [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement].

(d) If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full as set forth in Section 2.10.3(b), the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the first Business Day after receipt of notice to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 2.10.3(b), then Section 4.3(b) [Interest After Default] shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.10.3(b) to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

2.10.4 Repayment of Participation Advances.

(a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Lender of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10.4 (each such payment by a Lender, a “Participation Advance”) to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by such Issuing Lender under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Issuing Lender will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by such Issuing Lender.

(b) If an Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of any payment made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section in reimbursement of a payment made under any Letter of Credit or interest or fees thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent or such

-56-

Issuing Lender, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.

2.10.5 Documentation.

Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of each Issuing Lender’s Issuer Documents and written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between an Issuer Document and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, no Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

2.10.6 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests.

In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

(h) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

(i) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto;

This Section 2.10.8 [Indemnity] shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

-58-

2.10.9 Liability for Acts and Omissions.

(a) As between any Loan Party and an Issuing Lender, or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, no Issuing Lender shall be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document (including all sight drafts, certificates and all other instruments) submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, as applicable, including any acts of any Official Body, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of such Issuing Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Issuing Lender from liability for such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. In no event shall any Issuing Lender or any Issuing Lender’s Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Issuing Lender and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by such Issuing Lender or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit or any beneficiary, transferee, or assignee of proceeds thereof; (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by such Issuing Lender or its Affiliate; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on such Issuing Lender or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each, an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any

-59-

Letter of Credit that is the subject to such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it, the Issuer Documents or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender, unless such action taken or omitted is found in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct.

2.10.10 Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date.

If the Borrower or any other Loan Party requests the issuance, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit and such Letter of Credit would have an expiration date which is after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend or renew such Letter of Credit, but may elect to do so if the requirements of this Section 2.10.10 [Cash Collateral Prior to the Expiration Date] are satisfied. The Borrower shall, on or before the issuance, extension or renewal of such Letter of Credit, deposit and pledge Cash Collateral for each such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of the face value of such outstanding Letter of Credit plus the amount of fees that would be due under such Letter of Credit through the expiry date of such Letter of Credit. Such Cash Collateral shall be deposited pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender and the Borrower and shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts at such Issuing Lender. The Borrower hereby grants to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Issuing Lender, a security interest in all Cash Collateral pledged to such Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section or otherwise under this Agreement. The Cash Collateral related to a particular Letter of Credit shall be released by the applicable Issuing Lender upon termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit and the reimbursement by the Loan Parties of all amounts drawn thereon and the payment in full of all fees accrued thereon through the date of such expiration or termination. After the Expiration Date, the Borrower shall pay any and all fees associated with any such Letter of Credit with an expiration date that extends beyond the Expiration Date directly to the applicable Issuing Lender.

2.10.11 Issuing Lender Reporting Requirements.

Each Issuing Lender shall, on the first Business Day of each month, provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, the account party, the original face amount (if any), and the expiration date of any Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during the preceding month, and any other information relating to such Letter of Credit that the Administrative Agent may request.

2.11 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans.

The Swingline Lender may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if the Swingline Lender so requests, accrued interest thereon; provided that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of the amount that would cause its Revolving Exposure to exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] without regard to any of the requirements of that provision. The Administrative Agent on behalf of the Swingline Lender

-60-

shall provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or email (in “pdf,” “tif” or similar format)) no later than 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.11 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans] and of the apportionment among the Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] or Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] are then satisfied) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Swingline Lender, no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date.

2.12 Increase in Revolving Credit Commitments.

(a) Increasing Lenders and New Lenders. The Borrower may, prior to the Expiration Date, request that (1) the current Lenders (each, a “Current Lender”) increase their Revolving Credit Commitments (any Current Lender which elects to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment shall be referred to as an “Increasing Lender”) and/or (2) one or more new lenders (each, a “New Lender”) join this Agreement and provide a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) No Obligation to Increase. No Current Lender shall be obligated to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment, and any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Current Lender shall be in the sole discretion of such Current Lender;

(ii) No Consent. No consent of any Lender, other than a Lender providing such Revolving Credit Commitment, shall be required to implement such increase;

(iii) Defaults. There shall exist no Event of Default or Potential Default on the effective date of such increase and after giving effect to such increase;

(iv) Increase in and Aggregate Amount of Revolving Credit Commitments. The amount of each individual increase in Revolving Credit Commitments is at least $50,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) and all such increases in the aggregate shall not exceed $250,000,000;

(v) Resolutions; Opinion; Mortgage Amendments. The Loan Parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent on or before the effective date of such increase the following documents in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent: (1) certifications of their corporate secretaries with attached resolutions certifying that the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments has been approved by the Loan Parties, (2) opinions of counsel, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders addressing the authorization, execution and enforceability of the Loan Documents executed in connection with such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, and (3) if requested by the Collateral Agent, amendments to the Mortgages executed and delivered by the applicable Loan Parties to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to reflect the increase in Revolving Credit Commitments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, together with local counsel opinions regarding the due authorization, execution, delivery, and enforceability of such amendments to the Mortgages. The Loan Parties shall cause the amendments described in clause (3) above to be properly recorded and/or filed in the applicable filing or recording offices. Prior to the effectiveness of any such increase, the Loan Parties shall deliver the Required Flood Materials, and the effectiveness of any such increase shall be subject to the Required Flood Materials having been made available to the Lenders not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of such increase;

-61-

(vi) Notes. The Borrower shall execute and deliver (1) to each Increasing Lender that requests a Revolving Credit Note a replacement Revolving Credit Note reflecting the new amount of such Increasing Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect to the increase (and the prior Note issued to such Increasing Lender shall be deemed to be canceled and shall be returned to the Borrower as soon as practicable), and (2) to each New Lender that requests a Revolving Credit Note, a Revolving Credit Note reflecting the amount of such New Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment;

(vii) Approval of New Lenders. Any New Lender shall be subject to the consents specified in Section 11.8.2(c) [Required Consents] as if the increase in Revolving Commitments were an assignment;

(viii) Increasing Lenders. Each Increasing Lender shall confirm its agreement to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to an acknowledgement in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent, signed by it and the Borrower (or the Midstream GP Entity, on behalf of the Borrower) and delivered to the Administrative Agent before the effective date of such increase;

(ix) New Lender Joinder. Each New Lender shall execute a New Lender Joinder pursuant to which such New Lender shall join and become a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with a Revolving Credit Commitment in the amount set forth in such New Lender Joinder; and

(x) Financial Covenant Compliance. After giving effect to such increase in Revolving Credit Commitments and assuming the full amount of such increase in Revolving Credit Commitments were fully drawn as Loans, the Borrower shall be in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the Financial Covenants, and the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent prior to the effectiveness of such increase to the Revolving Credit Commitments an Officer’s Certificate certifying compliance with the requirements of this clause (x) and setting forth calculations in reasonable detail showing such compliance.

(b) Syndication. In the event that the Borrower elects to request an increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to mutually develop a syndication strategy, including timelines for commitments, to the extent the Administrative Agent agrees to assist in such syndication.

(c) Treatment of Outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit.

(i) Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans. On the effective date of such increase, the Borrower shall (x) repay the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding to each of the Current Lenders to the extent necessary so that after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments each Current Lender will have its Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, subject to the Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] and (y) borrow Revolving Credit Loans from Increasing Lenders and New Lenders to the extent necessary so that after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, each such Lender will have its Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. To facilitate the foregoing, the Borrower may, subject to its compliance with the other terms of this Agreement, borrow new Loans on the effective date of such increase. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to update Schedule 1.1(B) to reflect the increase in Revolving Credit Commitments.

-62-

(ii) Outstanding Letters of Credit; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans. On the effective date of such increase, (a) each Current Lender shall be deemed to have sold its existing participation in each then outstanding Letter of Credit and purchased a participation in each then outstanding Letter of Credit equal to its Ratable Share of such Letters of Credit, and (b) each New Lender will be deemed to have purchased a participation in each then outstanding Letter of Credit equal to its Ratable Share of such Letter of Credit. All fees shall accrue and be paid on the Letters of Credit based upon each Lender’s participation therein over the relevant period of time. To the extent necessary to enable each of the Current Lenders and the New Lenders to own a Ratable Share of the Participation Advances after any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, (a) the Current Lenders will sell a portion of its Participation Advances, and (b) the New Lenders and the Increasing Lenders will acquire Participation Advances (and will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each selling Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount) equal to its Ratable Share of all outstanding Participation Advances. All fees and interest on Participation Advances shall be allocated based upon each Lender’s ownership therein from time to time.

(iii) Equal and Ratable Benefit. The Revolving Credit Commitments established pursuant to this paragraph shall constitute Revolving Credit Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guaranties under the Guaranty Agreement and security interests created by the Security Documents. The Loan Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the Collateral Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by the Security Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such new Revolving Credit Commitments.

2.13 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.3 [Commitment Fees];

(ii) the Commitment and outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in any vote of Lenders except as required by Section 11.1.5 [Defaulting Lenders];

(iii) if any Swing Loans are outstanding or any Letter of Credit Obligations exist at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

(A) all or any part of the outstanding Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares but only to the extent that (x) the Revolving Facility Usage does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments, and (y) no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time;

-63-

(B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Loans, and (y) second, Cash Collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders (ratably among the Issuing Lenders) the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) in a deposit account held at the Administrative Agent for so long as such Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding;

(C) if the Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to clause (B) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations are cash collateralized;

(D) if the Letter of Credit Obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (A) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Ratable Share; and

(E) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations are neither reallocated nor Cash Collateralized pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit Fees payable under Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders ((ratably among them) and not to such Defaulting Lender) until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Obligations are reallocated and/or Cash Collateralized; and

(iv) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (x) no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Lender is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.13(a)(iii)(B) [Defaulting Lenders], and (y) participating interests in any newly made Swing Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.13(a)(iii)(A) [Defaulting Lenders] (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

(b) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, and the Ratable Share of the Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Ratable Share.

3. [RESERVED]

4. INTEREST RATES

4.1 Interest Rate Options.

The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or LIBOR Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that (i) there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans and (ii) if an Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans and the Required Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any indemnity under Section 5.9 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.

4.1.1 Interest Rate Options; Swing Line Interest Rate.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans:

(i) Revolving Credit Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

(ii) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the LIBOR Rate as determined for each applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Subject to Section 4.3 [Interest After Default], only the Base Rate Option applicable to Revolving Credit Loans shall apply to Swing Loans.

4.1.2 Rate Quotations.

The Borrower may call the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made.

4.2 Interest Periods.

At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such LIBOR Rate Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a LIBOR Rate Option:

-65-

(a) each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be in integral multiples and not less than the respective amounts set forth in Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] for Borrowings;

(b) in the case of the renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day; and

(c) Section 4.5 [Selection of Interest Rate Options] shall apply to any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option as to which an interest election has not been made prior to the deadline for delivery of a notice set forth above.

4.3 Interest After Default.

To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, and upon written demand by the Required Lenders:

(a) the Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] or Section 4.1 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall be increased by 2.0% per annum; and

(b) each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full.

The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 4.3 [Interest After Default] reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon demand by Administrative Agent.

4.4 LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

4.4.1 Unascertainable.

If on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:

(a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such LIBOR Rate, or

(b) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the Relevant Interbank Market relating to the LIBOR Rate,

the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

-66-

4.4.2 Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

If at any time any Lender shall have determined that:

(a) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or

(b) such LIBOR Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

(c) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

4.4.3 Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights.

In the case of any event specified in Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 4.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a LIBOR Rate Option shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 4.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 5.9 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 5.6 [Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.

-67-

4.5 Selection of Interest Rate Options.

If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

4.6 Successor LIBOR Rate Index.

(a) If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error), or the Borrower or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or the Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that either (x) (i) the circumstances set forth in Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] have arisen and are unlikely to be temporary, or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] have not arisen but the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the LIBOR Rate or an Official Body having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying the specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans (either such date under this clause (x), a “LIBOR Termination Date”), or (y) a rate other than the LIBOR Rate has become a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in Dollars in the U.S. market, then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice (as applicable), the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement (such amendment, the “Replacement Index Amendment”) to replace LIBOR with an alternate index (the “Replacement Index”).

(b) The Replacement Index Amendment may include such related amendments as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, for the implementation and administration of the Replacement Index-based rate, including any conforming changes to the definition of Base Rate, Interest Period, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 11.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers]), the Replacement Index Amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date a draft of the Replacement Index Amendment is provided to the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent receives, on or before such time, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Lenders object to the Replacement Index Amendment.

(c) Selection of the Replacement Index, adjustments to the applicable margins and related amendments to this Agreement (i) will be determined with due consideration to the then-current market practices for determining and implementing a rate of interest for newly originated loans in the United States and loans converted from a LIBOR Rate-based rate to a replacement index-based rate, and (ii) may also reflect adjustments to account for (x) the effects of the transition from the LIBOR Rate to the Replacement Index and (y) yield- or risk-based differences between the LIBOR Rate and the Replacement Index.

(d) Until the Replacement Index Amendment reflecting the Replacement Index in accordance with this Section 4.6 [Successor LIBOR Rate Index] is effective, each advance, conversion and renewal of a Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option will continue to bear interest with reference to the LIBOR Rate; provided, however, that if a LIBOR Termination Date has occurred, then the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (i) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option or Interest Periods) and (ii) the LIBOR component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for the making of Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies or the conversion to or the renewal of the LIBOR Rate Option for any Loans (to the extent of the affected Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for the making of Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies (subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) in the amount specified therein.

-68-

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the definition of Replacement Index shall provide that the Replacement Index shall in no event be deemed to be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

5. PAYMENTS

5.1 Payments.

All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Administrative Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of the Swingline Lender with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds; provided that in the event payments are received by 1:00 p.m. by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Lenders interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the Administrative Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an “account stated.”

5.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders.

Each Borrowing Tranche shall be allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other fees (except for the Administrative Agent’s Fee and the fees payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees]) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Loans, shall (except as otherwise may be provided with respect to a Defaulting Lender and except as provided in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or Section 5.7 [Increased Costs]) be payable ratably among the Lenders entitled to such payment in accordance with the amount of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, and other fees or amounts then due to such Lender as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to the Swingline Lender according to Section 2.11 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans].

-69-

5.3 Sharing of Payments by Lenders.

If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than the pro rata share of the amount such Lender is entitled thereto, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, 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 and other amounts owing them, 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, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section 5.3 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 5.3 [Sharing of Payments by Lenders] shall apply).

Each Loan Party 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 each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

5.4 Presumptions by Administrative Agent.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing 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.

5.5 Interest Payment Dates.

Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date. Interest on Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than

-70-

three (3) Months, also on each date that falls every three (3) Months after the beginning of such Interest Period. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated Expiration Date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

5.6 Prepayments.

5.6.1 Right to Prepay.

So long as the Borrower has repaid any unreimbursed LC Disbursements, the Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part, without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] below, in Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] and Section 5.9 [Indemnity]). Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies or no later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans and Revolving Credit Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, setting forth the following information:

(a) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made;

(b) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans;

(c) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies and Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies; and

(d) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than the lesser of (x) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans or (y) $100,000 for any Swing Loan or $1,000,000 for any Revolving Credit Loan and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable, except that any notice of voluntary prepayment may state that such notice is conditional upon the consummation of a financing transaction, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked or delayed by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Except as provided in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied (i) first to Swing Loans and then to Revolving Credit Loans; and (ii) after giving effect to the allocations in clause (i) above first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the LIBOR Rate Option applies. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 5.9 [Indemnity].

5.6.2 Replacement of a Lender.

In the event any Lender (a) gives notice under Section 4.4 [LIBOR Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], (b) requests compensation under Section 5.7 [Increased Costs], or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.8

-71-

[Taxes], (c) is a Defaulting Lender, or (d) is a Non-Consenting Lender referred to in Section 11.1.4 [Non-Consenting Lenders], then in any such event the Borrower may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, either:

(a) prepay the Loans and Participation Advances of such Lender in whole, together with all interest accrued thereon and any accrued fees and all other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 5.9 [Indemnity]), and terminate such Lender’s Commitment; or

(b) at its sole expense, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.8 [Successors and Assigns]), all of its interests, rights (other than existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 5.7 [Increased Costs] or 5.8 [Taxes]) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.8.2(d) [Assignment and Assumption Agreement];

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 5.9 [Indemnity]) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.7.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes], such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Lender agrees that, if the Borrower elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender], it shall promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Note (if Notes have been issued in respect of such Lender’s Loans) subject to such Assignment and Assumption Agreement; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall not render such assignment invalid, and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register if all other requirements of such assignments have been satisfied.

5.6.3 Designation of a Different Lending Office.

If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.7 [Increased Costs], or the Borrower is or will be required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.8 [Taxes], then such Lender shall (at the request

-72-

of the Borrower) 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 reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] or Section 5.8 [Taxes], as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

5.6.4 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Revolving Credit Commitments. If at any time the Revolving Facility Usage is in excess of the Revolving Credit Commitments (as used in this Section 5.6.4(a), a “deficiency”), the Borrower shall immediately make a principal payment on the Loans sufficient to cause the principal balance of the Loans then outstanding to be equal to or less than the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect. If a deficiency cannot be eliminated pursuant to this Section 5.6.4(a) by prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans as a result of outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, the Borrower shall also deposit cash collateral with the Administrative Agent, to be held by the Administrative Agent to secure such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations.

(b) Issuance of Debt. Within one Business Day following the incurrence of any Indebtedness within the meaning of clause (1)(a) of the definition thereof by the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (except if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 8.2.1 [Indebtedness]), the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Indebtedness toward the prepayment of Loans as set forth in Section 5.6.4(e) [Application of Payments] below.

(c) Dispositions and Casualty Events. In the event of any Disposition pursuant to Section 8.2.7(j), (l) or (m) [Dispositions] or any Casualty Event which results in the receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower shall within five (5) Business Days following the receipt by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of such Net Cash Proceeds apply an amount equal to (x) 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds of any Disposition by or Casualty Event of a Loan Party or (y) 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds of any Disposition by or Casualty Event of any Specified DevCo or any other non-wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary multiplied by the percentage of outstanding Equity Interests of such Specified DevCo or such other non-wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary then held by the Loan Parties, in each case to the prepayment of Revolving Loans; provided that, as long as no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time, with respect to any such Net Cash Proceeds, at the election of the Borrower, the applicable Loan Party, Specified DevCo or other non-wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds within twelve (12) months of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets (other than cash, Temporary Cash Investments and current assets (except for current assets acquired as part of a business)) held and to be used in the Permitted Business of the Loan Parties (or, in the case of clause (y) above, held and to be used in the Permitted Business by the Loan Parties or the applicable Specified DevCos or non-wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary that made such Disposition or was the subject of such Casualty Event); provided further that if any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds are not so used prior to the expiration of such 12-month period, such portion shall thereupon be immediately applied to the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 5.6.4(e) [Application of Payments] below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the requirements of this Section 5.6.4(c) shall not apply with respect to an aggregate of $10,000,000 of Net Cash Proceeds from Dispositions pursuant to Section 8.2.7(j), (l) or (m) [Dispositions] and Casualty Events occurring in the same fiscal year.

-73-

(d) No Commitment Reductions. The Borrower shall not be required to permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments in connection with any mandatory prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.6.4.

(e) Application of Payments. All prepayments pursuant to this Section 5.6.4 shall be applied (x) first, to any outstanding Swing Loans and (y) second, ratably to all outstanding Revolving Loans. All prepayments required pursuant to this Section 5.6.4 [Mandatory Prepayments] shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Loans subject to a LIBOR Rate Option. In accordance with Section 5.9 [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject to a LIBOR Rate Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period.

5.7 Increased Costs.

5.7.1 Increased Costs Generally.

If any Change in Law shall:

(a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Lender;

(b) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by it, or its other obligations, deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or change the basis of Taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes and any Excluded Taxes); or

(c) impose on any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Relevant Interbank Market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein,

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan under the LIBOR Rate Option (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Recipient such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Recipient for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

5.7.2 Capital Requirements.

If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such

-74-

Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

5.7.3 Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans.

A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 5.7.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or Section 5.7.2 [Capital Requirements] and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.

5.7.4 Delay in Requests.

Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

5.8 Taxes.

5.8.1 Payments Free of Taxes.

All payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes; provided that if any Loan Party or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.8 [Taxes]) each Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made (provided that, if the applicable withholding agent in respect of an Indemnified Tax is a Person other than a Loan Party or the Administrative Agent (e.g., a Lender), the additional amounts required to be paid by a Loan Party under this clause (i) in respect of such Tax shall not be greater than the additional amounts such Loan Party would have been obligated to pay had such Loan Party made payment of such sum directly to the applicable beneficial owner of such payment, provided further, that such Tax would not have been an Excluded Tax had such beneficial owner been a Lender hereunder and had complied with Section 5.8.5 [Status of Lenders]), (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.

-75-

5.8.2 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.

Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.8.1 [Payments Free of Taxes] above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.

5.8.3 Indemnification by the Borrower.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.8 [Taxes]) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower 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, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

5.8.4 Evidence of Payments.

As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

5.8.5 Status of Lenders.

(a) Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to any payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such documentation (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 5.8.5 [Status of Lenders] obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

5.8.7 Definition of Lender.

For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 5.8 [Taxes], include any Issuing Lender and any Swingline Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.8.8, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver any documentation that the Administrative Agent is not legally eligible to deliver as a result of any Change in Law after the date hereof.

-78-

5.9 Indemnity.

In addition to the compensation or payments required by Section 5.7 [Increased Costs] or Section 5.8 [Taxes], the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against all liabilities, losses, claims, damages or expenses (including loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of any:

(a) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a LIBOR Rate Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due),

(b) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] or Section 4.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 5.6 [Prepayments],

(c) default by the Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder, or

(d) the assignment of any Revolving Credit Loans under the LIBOR Rate Option other than on the last day of the Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender]; provided, however, that with respect to this clause (d), the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Defaulting Lender whose Revolving Credit Loans are being replaced as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender].

If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

5.10 Settlement Date Procedures.

In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans and the Swingline Lender may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loans] hereof during the period between Settlement Dates. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of its Ratable Share of the total of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). On such Settlement Date, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount equal to the difference between its Required Share and its Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans and on dates on which mandatory prepayments are due under Section 5.6.4 [Mandatory Prepayments] and may at its option effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience,

-79-

and nothing contained in this Section 5.10 [Settlement Date Procedures] shall relieve the Lenders of their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loans]. The Administrative Agent may at any time at its option for any reason whatsoever require each Lender to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Lender may at any time require the Administrative Agent to pay immediately to such Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans.

The Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary has the lawful power to own or lease its properties and to conduct its business in which it is currently engaged, except where the failure to have such power would not reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Change. The Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction listed on Schedule 6.1 and in all other jurisdictions where the property owned or leased by it or the nature of the business transacted by it or both makes such licensing or qualification necessary except to the extent that the failure to be so duly licensed or qualified or in good standing would not reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Change.

6.2 EEA Financial Institutions.

No Loan Party is an EEA Financial Institution.

6.3 Subsidiaries.

As of the Closing Date, Schedule 6.3 states the name of each Subsidiary of the Borrower, its jurisdiction of incorporation, the issued and outstanding shares (referred to herein as the “Subsidiary Shares”) and the owners thereof if it is a corporation, its outstanding partnership interests (the “Partnership Interests”) if it is a partnership, its outstanding limited liability company interests, interests assigned to managers thereof and the voting rights associated therewith (the “LLC Interests”) if it is a limited liability company, identifies each Subsidiary as either a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary and for each Restricted Subsidiary whether or not it is a Guarantor and, if it is not a Guarantor, the clause in the definition of “Excluded Subsidiaries” applicable to such Restricted Subsidiary.

6.5 Validity and Binding Effect.

This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each Loan Party, and each other Loan Document which any Loan Party is required to execute and deliver has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party. This Agreement and each other Loan Document constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of each Loan Party which is a party thereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability of any of such Loan Document may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally or limiting the right of specific performance.

6.6 No Conflict; Borrower and Subsidiaries’ Status Under CNX Debt Documents.

(a) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to which it is a party by any Loan Party nor the consummation of the transactions herein or therein contemplated or compliance with the terms and provisions hereof or thereof by any of them will conflict with, constitute a default under or result in any breach of (i) the terms and conditions of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws, certificate of limited partnership, partnership agreement, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or other organizational documents of any Loan Party, (ii) any material Law, instrument, order, writ, judgment, injunction or decree to which any Loan Party is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or result in the creation or enforcement of any Lien, charge or encumbrance whatsoever upon any property (now or hereafter acquired) of any Loan Party (other than Liens granted under the Loan Documents) or (iii) the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien upon any material property or assets of such Loan Party or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Liens created under the Loan Documents and Liens permitted hereunder) pursuant to the terms of any material indenture, loan agreement, lease agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement or other instrument to which such Loan Party or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound (any such term, covenant, condition or provision, a “Contractual Requirement”), except that certain consents may be required under various contracts and agreements in connection with any attempt to assign such various contracts and agreements pursuant to the assertion of remedies under the Loan Documents.

(b) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries constitute “unrestricted subsidiaries” under each indenture, loan agreement or other debt facility or agreement governing any Indebtedness for borrowed money (to the extent such indenture, loan agreement or other debt facility or agreement governing any Indebtedness provides for such distinction) of CNX or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries).

6.7 Litigation.

There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Borrower, threatened against the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary at law or equity before any Official Body (including the FERC or any equivalent state regulatory agency) or arbitrator that individually or in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Change. To the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Borrower, none of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is in violation of any order, writ, injunction or any decree of any Official Body that would reasonably be expected to result in any Material Adverse Change.

-81-

6.8 Properties.

(a) The Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary has good and marketable title to or valid leasehold or easement interest in all properties, assets and other rights, which it purports to own, lease or otherwise hold or which are reflected as owned, leased or otherwise held on its books and records, free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances except Permitted Liens, and subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable leases or conveyance instrument; provided that a Loan Party shall not be in breach of the foregoing (i) in the event that it fails to own a valid fee, leasehold or easement interest which, either considered alone or together with all other such valid fee, leaseholds or easements that it fails to own, is not material, and (ii) as a result of certain title defects and exceptions, if the Loan Parties are working to cure such title defects and exceptions as provided for in Section 8.1.18 [Title] until such time as such title defects and exceptions are cured by the Loan Parties or waived by the Administrative Agent (or Lenders) as provided by such Section, except to the extent that the failure to hold such title or interest, either alone or together with all other title defects, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

(b) The Gathering Systems are covered by valid and subsisting recorded fee deeds, leases, easements, rights of way, servitudes, permits, licenses and other instruments and agreements (collectively, “Rights of Way”) in favor of the Borrower or any other applicable Restricted Subsidiary (or their respective predecessors in interest), except where the failure of the Gathering Systems to be so covered, individually or in the aggregate, (i) does not interfere with the ordinary conduct of business of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) does not materially detract from the value or the use of the portion of the Gathering Systems which are not covered and (iii) would not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Change.

(c) The Rights of Way establish contiguous and continuous rights of way for the Gathering Systems and grant the Borrower or any applicable Restricted Subsidiary (or their respective predecessors in interest) the right to construct, operate, and maintain the Gathering Systems in, over, under, or across the land covered thereby in the same way that a prudent owner and operator would inspect, operate, repair, and maintain similar assets and in the same way as the Borrower and applicable Restricted Subsidiary have inspected, operated, repaired, and maintained the Gathering Systems prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, (i) some of the Rights of Way granted to the Borrower or applicable Restricted Subsidiary (or their respective predecessors in interest) by private parties and Official Bodies are revocable at the right of the applicable grantor, (ii) some of the Rights of Way cross properties that are subject to liens in favor of third parties that have not been subordinated to the Rights of Way, and (iii) some of the Rights of Way are subject to certain defects, limitations and restrictions; provided, further, none of the limitations, defects, and restrictions described in subclauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, individually or in the aggregate, (A) interfere with the ordinary conduct of business of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, (B) materially detract from the value or the use of the portion of the Gathering Systems which are covered or (C) would reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Change.

(d) Each Processing Plant is or will be located on lands covered by fee deeds, real property leases, or other instruments (collectively, “Deeds”) in favor of the Borrower or any applicable Restricted Subsidiary (or their respective predecessors in interest) and their respective successors and assigns. The Deeds grant the Borrower or any applicable Restricted Subsidiary (or their respective predecessors in interest) the right to construct, operate, and maintain such Processing Plant on the land covered thereby in the same way that a prudent owner and operator would inspect, operate, repair, and maintain similar assets.

-82-

(e) All Rights of Way and all Deeds necessary for the conduct of the business of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries are valid and subsisting, in full force and effect, and there exists no breach, default or event or circumstance that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would give rise to a default under any such Rights of Way or Deeds that would reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Change. All rental and other payments due under any Rights of Way or Deeds by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (and their respective predecessors in interest) have been duly paid in accordance with the terms thereof, except to the extent that a failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Change.

(f) The rights and properties presently owned, leased, licensed or otherwise held by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, including all Rights of Way and Deeds, include all rights and assets and properties necessary to permit the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries to conduct their businesses in all material respects in the same manner as such businesses have been conducted prior to the Closing Date.

(g) The Gathering Systems are located within the confines of the Rights of Way and the other real property held or leased by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and do not encroach outside of the Rights of Way and real property held or leased by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries upon any adjoining property in any way that, individually or in the aggregate, (i) materially detracts from the value or the use of any Gathering System and (ii) would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

6.9 Financial Statements.

(a) Historical Statements. The Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent copies of its audited consolidated year-end financial statements as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 and for the fiscal years then ended (the “Historical Statements”).

(b) Financial Projections. The Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent financial projections (including balance sheets and statements of operation and cash flows) for the period from the Closing Date through the Expiration Date (broken out on a quarterly basis for the first two years after the Closing Date and annually thereafter) derived from various assumptions of the Borrower’s management (the “Financial Projections”). The Financial Projections have been prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions; it being understood that such Financial Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Borrower’s control, and that no assurance can be given that the Financial Projections will be realized.

(c) Accuracy of Financial Statements. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has any material liabilities, contingent or otherwise, or forward or long-term commitments that are not disclosed in the Historical Statements or in the notes thereto, and except as disclosed therein there are no unrealized or anticipated losses from any commitments of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.

All Equity Interests included in the Pledged Securities to be pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement are or will be upon issuance validly issued and nonassessable and owned beneficially and of record by the pledgor free and clear of any Lien or restriction on transfer, except for nonconsensual Permitted Liens and inchoate Permitted Liens that do not have priority over the Liens granted under the Loan Documents and as otherwise provided by the Security Agreement and except as the right of the Lenders to dispose of such Equity Interests may be limited by the Securities Act and the regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder and by applicable state securities laws. There are no shareholder or other agreements or understandings other than partnership agreements, limited liability

-84-

company agreements or operating agreements, with respect to the Equity Interests included in the Pledged Securities, except as described on Schedule 6.11.

6.12 Full Disclosure.

Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any certificate, statement, agreement or other documents furnished to any Agent or any Lender in connection herewith or therewith, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein and therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

If an Event of Default (other than under Section 9.1.12 [Involuntary Proceedings] or 9.1.13 [Voluntary Proceedings]) shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders, shall, (i) terminate all obligations on the part of the Lenders to make Loans or any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, as the case may be, (ii) by written notice to the Borrower, declare the unpaid principal amount of the Loans then outstanding and all interest accrued thereon, any unpaid fees and all other Obligations (other than Obligations under Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products) to be forthwith due and payable, and the same shall thereupon become and be immediately due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, and (iii) require the Borrower to, and the Borrower shall thereupon, Cash Collateralize all Letter of Credit Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit (to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement). Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent (x) first, to reimburse each of the Issuing Lenders for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and (y) second, after the Letter of Credit Obligations have been paid in full and otherwise terminated or expired, to satisfy other outstanding Obligations. Upon the curing of all existing Events of Default to the satisfaction of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall return the cash collateral to the Borrower.

9.2.2 Bankruptcy, Insolvency or Reorganization Proceedings.

If an Event of Default specified under Section 9.1.12 [Involuntary Proceedings] or Section 9.1.13 [Voluntary Proceedings] shall occur, no further obligation shall exist on the Lenders to make any Loans or any Issuing Lender to issue any Letters of Credit hereunder, and the unpaid principal amount of the Loans then outstanding and all interest accrued thereon, any unpaid fees and all other Obligations (other than Obligations under Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products) shall be immediately due and payable, and the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize all Letter of Credit Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit (to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement), in each case, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.

9.2.3 Set-off.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any Secured Party to whom any Obligation is owed by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any participant of any Lender which has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 5.3 [Sharing of Payments

-122-

by Lenders] and any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Secured Party anywhere in the world shall have the right (to the extent permitted by applicable Law), in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, without notice to such Loan Party, to set-off against and apply to the then unpaid balance of all the Loans and all other Obligations of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document any debt owing to, and any other funds held in any manner for the account of, the Borrower or such other Loan Party by such Secured Party or participant or by such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate, including all funds in all deposit accounts (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, or otherwise) now or hereafter maintained by the Borrower or such other Loan Party for its own account (but not including funds held in custodian or trust accounts or funds not otherwise beneficially owned by the Borrower or such other Loan Party) with such Secured Party or participant or such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13 [Defaulting Lenders] and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Such right shall exist whether or not any Secured Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether or not such debt owing to or funds held for the account of the Borrower or such other Loan Party is or are matured or unmatured and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any Collateral, Guaranty or any other security, right or remedy available to any Secured Party.

9.2.4 [Reserved].

9.2.5 Application of Proceeds.

From and after the date on which the Administrative Agent has taken any action pursuant to this Section 9.2 [Consequences of Event of Default] and until all Obligations of the Loan Parties have been Paid in Full, any and all proceeds received by the Administrative Agent from any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, or the exercise of any other remedy by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, shall be applied as follows:

(a) First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, out-of-pocket expenses and other amounts (including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent) payable to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in their respective capacities as such;

(b) Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the Issuing Lenders) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (b) payable to them;

(c) Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fees and interest on the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (c) payable to them;

(d) Fourth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lenders, to Cash Collateralize that portion of Letter of Credit Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement;

-123-

(e) Fifth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and Obligations then owing under Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, ratably among the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the providers of Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (e) held by them; and

(f) Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly Paid in Full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) amounts received from the Borrower or any Guarantor that is not a Qualified ECP Loan Party shall not be applied to the Obligations that are Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Obligations other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this clause (a), the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to clause Fifth above from amounts received from Qualified ECP Loan Party to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to Obligations described in clause Fifth above by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other Obligations pursuant to clause Fifth above) and (b) Obligations arising under Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the counterparty to such Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, as the case may be. Each counterparty to a Specified Swap Agreements and Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Section 10 [The Agents] hereof for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

9.2.6 Collateral Agent.

All Liens granted as security for the Obligations under the Security Documents and any other Loan Document shall secure the Obligations on a pari passu basis in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. No Indemnitee or provider of a Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product (except in its capacity as a Lender hereunder (to the extent that this Agreement or any other Loan Document empowers the Lenders to direct the Administrative Agent)) shall be entitled or have the power to direct or instruct the Collateral Agent on any such matters or to control or direct in any manner the maintenance or disposition of the Collateral.

9.2.7 Other Rights and Remedies.

In addition to all of the rights and remedies contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents (including each Mortgage), the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable Law, all of which rights and remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive to the extent permitted by Law. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, exercise all post-default rights granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable Law.

-124-

9.3 Notice of Sale.

Any notice required to be given by the Collateral Agent of a sale, lease, or other disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action by the Collateral Agent, if given to the Borrower at least ten (10) days prior to such proposed action, shall constitute commercially reasonable and fair notice thereof to the Borrower.

10. THE AGENTS

10.1 Appointment and Authority.

Each Lender (including each in its capacity as a counterparty to a Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product or an Affiliate of such counterparty on behalf of such Affiliate) and Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes PNC to act as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for such Lender under the Loan Documents and to execute and deliver or accept on behalf of each of the Lenders the other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of a Note shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize, the Agents to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein, and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agents or any of them by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. PNC agrees to act as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the extent provided in the Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 10 are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions, except as set forth in Section 10.10 [Authorization to Release Collateral and Guarantors].

10.2 Rights as a Lender.

Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Persons serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Persons and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Persons were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

10.3 Exculpatory Provisions.

The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law;

-125-

(c) shall be entitled to seek the direction or confirmation from the Required Lenders (or other applicable group of Lenders) before taking any action under the Loan Documents; and

(d) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by any Person serving as an Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers] and 9.2 [Consequences of Event of Default]) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Potential Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Potential Default or Event of Default is given to such Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Lender.

No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Security Document have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, (v) the value or the sufficiency of the Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

10.4 Reliance by Agents.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

-126-

10.5 Delegation of Duties.

Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 10 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

10.6 Resignation of Agents.

Each Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the other Agents and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with approval from the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then such retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if such retiring Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that, in the case of resignation by the Collateral Agent, in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through a retiring Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lenders directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 10.6. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 10.6). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 10.6 and Section 11.3 [Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.

If PNC resigns as Administrative Agent under this Section 10.6, PNC shall also resign as Swingline Lender and as an Issuing Lender. If PNC resigns as an Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an Issuing Lender with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it that remain outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Participation Advances pursuant to Section 2.10.3 [Participations, Disbursements, Reimbursement]. If PNC resigns as Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall repay any outstanding Swing Loans on or prior to the effective date of such resignation and, to the extent any Swing Loans remain outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Swingline Lender, PNC shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of a Swingline Lender with respect to such Swing Loans, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.11 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans]. Upon the appointment of a successor

-127-

Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall (i) succeed to all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of PNC as a retiring Swingline Lender and Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent and PNC shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations as Swingline Lender and Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents, and (ii) issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by PNC, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to PNC to effectively assume the obligations of PNC with respect to such Letters of Credit.

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

10.7 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.

Each Lender and the Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

10.8 No Other Duties, Etc.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the “Joint Lead Arrangers,” “Joint Bookrunners,” “Syndication Agent,” “Co-Documentation Agents” or Lenders listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender, a Lender or an Issuing Lender hereunder.

10.9 Administrative Agent’s Fee.

The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent a nonrefundable fee (the “Administrative Agent’s Fee”) under the terms of a letter (the “Administrative Agent’s Letter”) between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, as amended from time to time.

10.10 Authorization to Release Collateral and Guarantors.

Each Secured Party expressly authorizes the Agents to:

(a) in the case of the Agents, execute such documents as are reasonably requested to evidence the termination of this Agreement and release the Guaranty and the Liens created by the Security Documents upon Payment in Full as contemplated by Section 11.7 [Duration; Survival];

(b) in the case of the Administrative Agent, execute a release in a form reasonably satisfactory to it of any Person from the Guaranty Agreement if such Person (x) ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower or (y) if such Person is or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, in either case, pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents; and

-128-

(c) in the case of the Collateral Agent, (i) execute any document in a form reasonably satisfactory to it, evidencing the release of any asset from the Lien of any Security Document upon (x) the Disposition (other than any lease) of such asset permitted by the Loan Documents (other than a Disposition to a Loan Party), (y) a Person being released from the Guaranty Agreement (A) if pursuant to clause (b)(x) above, with respect to any Lien on the assets of such Person and the Equity Interests of such Person and (B) if pursuant to clause (b)(y) above, the assets of such Person, and to the extent constituting Excluded Assets, the Equity Interests of such Person or (z) such assets becoming Excluded Assets, and (ii) enter into any subordination agreement, non-disturbance agreement or grant of an option with respect to assets, in each case, in a form reasonably satisfactory to it, in connection with (x) any easements, permits, licenses, rights of way, options, surface leases or other surface rights or interests permitted by the Loan Documents to be granted or a Disposition permitted by the Loan Documents or (y) Liens permitted under clause (10) of the definition of Permitted Liens.

The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent such certificates and other documentation as such Agent(s) may reasonably request to evidence compliance with the applicable provisions of the Loan Documents (including with respect to their authority hereunder), and the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may rely, without independent investigation, on such certificates and other documents.

10.11 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program.

Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv) customer notices or (v) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.

10.12 Withholding Tax.

To the extent required by any applicable Law (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under any Loan Document an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 5.8 [Taxes], each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, all Taxes and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Official Body as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes

-129-

the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.12 [Withholding Tax]. The agreements in this Section 10.12 [Withholding Tax] shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 10.12 [Withholding Tax], include any Issuing Lender and any Swingline Lender.

10.13 Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, each Agent and each Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

11.3.4 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.

No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such damages are found in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, nor shall any Indemnitee, Loan Party or any Subsidiary have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date); it being agreed that this sentence shall not limit the indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 11.3.2 [Indemnification by the Borrower].

-139-

participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] and Section 5.6.3 [Designation of a Different Lending Office] with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.2.3 [Set-off] as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.3 [Sharing of Payments by Lenders] as though it were a Lender.

Each Lender that sells participations to a Participant, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register of all such Participants on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrower and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary; provided that no Lender shall have the obligation to disclose all or a portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of the Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Loans or other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding to establish that any loans are in registered form for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

11.8.5 Certain Pledges; Successors and Assigns Generally.

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 any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

11.9 Confidentiality.

11.9.1 General.

Each of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that 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), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (iii) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party hereto, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 11.9, to (a) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (b) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement or derivative transaction or similar transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (vii) with the consent of the Borrower, (viii) to the extent such Information (a) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.9 or (b) becomes available to any Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential

-140-

basis from a source other than the Borrower, the other Loan Parties or any other Person that has obtained such confidential information pursuant to this Section 11.9 or (ix) on a confidential basis to (a) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder, (b) information regarding the credit facilities provided hereunder to (x) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder or (y) market data collectors and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration, settlement and management of this Agreement and the credit facilities provided hereunder. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.9 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.

11.9.2 Sharing Information With Affiliates of the Lenders.

Each Loan Party acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Affiliates (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more Subsidiaries or Affiliates of such Lender, and each of the Loan Parties hereby authorizes each Lender to share any information delivered to such Lender by such Loan Party and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement to any such Subsidiary or Affiliate subject to the provisions of Section 11.9.1 [General].

11.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to a Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender, 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 including any prior confidentiality agreements and commitments. Except as provided in Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit], 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 that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or e-mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

FORM OF

CONTINUING AGREEMENT OF GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP

This Continuing Agreement of Guaranty and Suretyship (this “Guaranty”), dated as of this March 8, 2018, is jointly and severally given by each of the UNDERSIGNED and each of the other Persons which become Guarantors hereunder from time to time (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”) in favor of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its capacity as the administrative agent for the Lenders and the collateral agent for the Secured Parties, as defined below (the “Administrative Agent”), in connection with that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among, CNX Midstream Partners LP (formerly known as CONE Midstream Partners LP), a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors now or hereafter party thereto, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders now or hereafter party thereto (as amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time hereafter, the “Credit Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them by the Credit Agreement and the rules of construction set forth in Section 1.2 [Construction] of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Guaranty; provided that herein the term “Guarantor” shall include the Borrower in its capacity as guarantor of the obligations of its Subsidiaries (x) under the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products or (y) as counterparties to any Specified Swap Agreements.

1. Guarantied Obligations. To induce the Secured Parties to make loans and grant other financial accommodations to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Specified Swap Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties to each Secured Party, and becomes surety as though it was a primary obligor for, the full, strict and indefeasible payment in cash and performance when due (whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and including any amounts which would become due but for the operation of an automatic stay under the federal bankruptcy code of the United States or any similar laws of any country or jurisdiction) of: (i) all Obligations, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness from time to time of the Borrower or any other Guarantor to any of the Secured Parties, under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, whether for principal, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses, or otherwise, and all Refinancings thereof, whether such obligations, liabilities, or indebtedness are direct or indirect, secured or unsecured, joint or several, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, whether for payment or performance, now existing or hereafter arising (and including obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising or accruing after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any of the Loan Parties or that would have arisen or accrued but for the commencement of such proceeding (including, without limitation, interest after default), even if the claim for such obligation, liability or indebtedness is not enforceable or allowable in such proceeding, and including all Obligations, liabilities, and indebtedness arising from any extensions of credit under or in connection with the Loan Documents or any Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, from time to time, regardless of whether any such extensions of credit are in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, any Specified Swap Agreement or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, or are made in circumstances in which any condition to extension of credit is not satisfied), (ii) any obligation or liability of any of the Loan Parties arising out of overdrafts on deposits or other accounts or out of electronic funds (whether by wire transfer or through automated clearing houses or otherwise) or out of the return unpaid of, or other failure of any Secured Party to receive final payment for, any check, item, instrument, payment order or other deposit or credit to a deposit or other account, or out of any Secured Party’s non-receipt of or inability to collect funds or otherwise not being made whole in connection with depository or other similar arrangements, and (iii) any amendments, extensions, renewals and increases

of or to any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing obligations, liabilities and indebtedness, subject to the proviso in this sentence, are referred to herein collectively as the “Guarantied Obligations” and each as a “Guarantied Obligation”); it being understood that the Guarantied Obligations of the Borrower shall include only the Guarantied Obligations of the other Loan Parties; provided that, with respect to each Guarantor that is not a Qualified ECP Loan Party, the Guarantied Obligations shall exclude any Excluded Swap Obligations. Without limitation of the foregoing, any of the Guarantied Obligations shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty if any of the Secured Parties (or any one or more assignees or transferees thereof) from time to time assigns or otherwise transfers all or any portion of their respective rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person as provided by the Loan Documents, by the Specified Swap Agreements or by the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees as follows:

2. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby promises to pay and perform all such Guarantied Obligations when due and payable, after the expiration of any applicable cure periods, immediately upon demand of the Secured Parties or any one or more of them. All payments made hereunder shall be made by each Guarantor in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars and shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, withholding, or other deduction of any nature. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Secured Party to any of the security held for payment of the Guarantied Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Secured Party in favor of any Borrower or any other Person.

3. Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by any Secured Party, or the Borrower or any other obligor on any of the Guarantied Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity, except for, and to the extent of, payment in cash and performance of the Guarantied Obligations. Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby consents to, at any time and from time to time, and the joint and several obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following:

(a) Any lack of genuineness, legality, validity, enforceability or allowability (in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise), or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Guarantied Obligations, any of the terms of the Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or any rights of the Secured Parties or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) Any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of, or any release, surrender, exchange, compromise or settlement of the Guarantied Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Guarantied Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, or waiver of any term of, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations;

-2-

(c) Any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Guarantor; or any application of collections (including, but not limited to, collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Guarantied Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, in preference to Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefits of this Guaranty, or if any collections are applied to Guarantied Obligations, any application to particular Guarantied Obligations;

(d) Any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination, subordination, compromise, release, surrender, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay or wrongful action by the Secured Parties, or any of them, or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or any other action or inaction by any of the Secured Parties, or any of them, or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations. As used in this Guaranty, “direct or indirect security” for the Guarantied Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Guarantied Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person;

(e) Any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of, the Borrower or any other Person; any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any other Person; or any action taken or election made by the Secured Parties, or any of them (including, but not limited to, any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code), the Borrower, or any other Person in connection with any such proceeding;

(f) Any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person with respect to any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations, other than, and to the extent of, payment in cash and performance of the Guarantied Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of the Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; and

(g) Any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of, any Guarantor, a guarantor or a surety, excepting only full, strict, and indefeasible Payment in Full and performance of the Guarantied Obligations.

-3-

Each Guarantor acknowledges, consents, and agrees that new Guarantors may join in this Guaranty pursuant to Section 8.1.9 [Additional Guarantors] of the Credit Agreement and each Guarantor affirms that its obligations shall continue hereunder undiminished.

4. Waivers, etc. Each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense to (other than, and to the extent of, the defense of prior payment in cash and performance of the Guarantied Obligations) or limitation on its obligations under this Guaranty arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in Section 3 [Obligations Absolute] hereof. Without limitation and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives each of the following:

(a) Except as may be expressly contemplated by the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, all notices, disclosures and demand of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to preserve intact any rights against any Guarantor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in Section 3 [Obligations Absolute] hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Guarantied Obligation; any notice of any default or any failure on the part of the Borrower or any other Person to comply with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; and any notice of any information pertaining to the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any other Person;

(b) Any right to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against the Borrower or any other Person in the event of any Insolvency Proceeding, or to the exercise against the Borrower or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Secured Parties, or any of them, or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Loan Document or any of the Guarantied Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Guarantied Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, and any requirement that any Guarantor receive notice of any such acceptance;

(c) Any defense or other right arising by reason of any law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including, but not limited to, anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Secured Parties, or any of them (including, but not limited to, commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Guarantied Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Secured Parties, or any of them, to seek a deficiency against the Borrower or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Guarantied Obligations; and

(d) Any and all defenses it may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like.

5. Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a continuing obligation of the Guarantors and shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that no Guarantied Obligations may be outstanding from time to time and notwithstanding any other event or circumstance. Upon Payment In Full, and provided

-4-

that none of the other obligations referred to in Section 1(ii) [Guarantied Obligations] hereof are then in default, this Guaranty shall immediately and automatically terminate; provided, however, that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, any time any payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations is rescinded, recouped, avoided, or must otherwise be returned or released by any Secured Party upon or during an Insolvency Proceeding affecting the Borrower or any other Loan Party or for any other reason whatsoever, all as though such payment had not been made and was due and owing. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 5 shall survive termination of this Guaranty.

6. Subrogation. Each Guarantor waives and agrees that it will not exercise any rights against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising in connection with, or any Collateral securing, the Guarantied Obligations (including rights of subrogation, contribution, and the like) until Payment In Full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Guarantor by virtue of any right of subrogation, contribution, or the like, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and shall be held in trust for the benefit of, the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

7. No Stay. Without limitation of any other provision of this Guaranty, if any declaration of default or acceleration or other exercise or condition to exercise of rights or remedies under or with respect to any Guarantied Obligation shall at any time be stayed, enjoined, or prevented for any reason (including, but not limited to, stay or injunction resulting from the pendency against the Borrower or any other Person of an Insolvency Proceeding), the Guarantors agree that, for the purposes of this Guaranty and their obligations hereunder, the Guarantied Obligations shall be deemed to have been declared in default or accelerated, and such other exercise or conditions to exercise shall be deemed to have been taken or met.

8. Intentionally Deleted.

9. Intentionally Deleted.

10. Notices. Each Guarantor agrees that all notices, statements, requests, demands and other communications under this Guaranty shall be given to such Guarantor at the address set forth on Schedule 11.5.1 to, or in a Guarantor Joinder given under, the Credit Agreement and in the manner provided in Section 11.5.1 [Notices Generally] of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may rely on any notice (whether or not made in a manner contemplated by this Guaranty) purportedly made by or on behalf of a Guarantor, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no duty to verify the identity or authority of the Person giving such notice.

11. Counterparts; Telecopy Signatures. This Guaranty may be executed by different parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page by telecopy or other electronic transmission delivery system (in either case in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed signature page to this Guaranty.

12. Default Payments by Borrower. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any default under any Guarantied Obligation, if any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor by or for the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of each Secured Party and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guarantied Obligations when due and payable.

-5-

13. Construction. The section and other headings contained in this Guaranty are for reference purposes only and shall not affect interpretation of this Guaranty in any respect. This Guaranty has been fully negotiated between the applicable parties, each party having the benefit of legal counsel, and accordingly neither any doctrine of construction of guaranties or suretyships in favor of the guarantor or surety, nor any doctrine of construction of ambiguities in agreements or instruments against the party controlling the drafting thereof, shall apply to this Guaranty.

14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Secured Parties, or any of them, and their successors and assigns except that no Guarantor may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein other than assignments and transfers permitted by the Credit Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Secured Parties, or any of them (and any successive assignee or transferee), from time to time may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (including all or any portion of any commitment to extend credit), or any other Guarantied Obligations, to any other Person as provided and permitted by the Credit Agreement and such Guarantied Obligations (including any Guarantied Obligations resulting from extension of credit by such other Person under or in connection with the Loan Documents, Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products) shall be and remain Guarantied Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty, and to the extent of its interest in such Guarantied Obligations such other Person shall be vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Secured Parties in this Guaranty or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any enforcement under this Guaranty shall be by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent only, and not by any Lender or other Secured Party in its individual capacity as such.

15. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Section 11.11 [Governing Law, Etc.] of the Credit Agreement is incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof.

16. Severability; Modification to Conform to Law.

(a) The provisions of this Guaranty are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Guaranty shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

(b) Without limitation of the preceding Subsection (a), to the extent that applicable law (including applicable laws pertaining to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent or preferential transfer) otherwise would render the full amount of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder invalid, voidable, or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s aggregate liability under this Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, the aggregate amount of such liability shall, without any further action by any of the Secured Parties or such Guarantor or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding, which (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) may be an amount which is equal to the greater of:

(i) the fair consideration actually received by such Guarantor under the terms and as a result of the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products and the value of the benefits described in Section 19(b) [Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents, Benefits] hereof, including (and to the extent not inconsistent with applicable federal and state laws affecting the enforceability of guaranties) distributions,

-6-

commitments, and advances made to or for the benefit of such Guarantor with the proceeds of any credit extended under the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements or Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, and

(ii) the excess of (x) the amount of the fair value of the assets of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty as determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof, over (y) the amount of all liabilities of such Guarantor as of the date of this Guaranty, also as determined on the basis of applicable federal and state laws governing the insolvency of debtors as in effect on the date hereof.

Nothing in this clause (b) shall be construed or interpreted to limit the obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section or elsewhere in this Guaranty, this Guaranty shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to its full extent in accordance with its terms, as if this Section (and references elsewhere in this Guaranty to enforceability to the fullest extent permitted by law) were not a part of this Guaranty, and in any related litigation the burden of proof shall be on the party asserting the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof or asserting any limitation on any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as to each element of such assertion.

17. Additional Guarantors. At any time after the initial execution and delivery of this Guaranty to the Administrative Agent, additional Persons may become parties to this Guaranty and thereby acquire the duties and rights of being Guarantors hereunder by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Guarantor Joinder pursuant to the Credit Agreement. No notice of the addition of any Guarantor shall be required to be given to any pre-existing Guarantor and each Guarantor hereby consents thereto.

18. Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations and additional liabilities of each and every Guarantor under this Guaranty are joint and several obligations of the Guarantors, and each Guarantor hereby waives to the full extent permitted by law any defense it may otherwise have to the payment in cash and performance of the Guarantied Obligations that its liability hereunder is limited and not joint and several. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers and those set forth below serve as a material inducement to the agreement of the Secured Parties to make loans and grant other financial accommodations under the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements and the Other Lender Provided Financial Service Products, and that the Secured Parties are relying on each specific waiver and all such waivers in entering into this Guaranty. The undertakings of each Guarantor hereunder secure the obligations of itself and the other Guarantors. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may, in their sole discretion, elect to enforce this Guaranty against any Guarantor without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Guarantor and such an election by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall not be a defense to any action the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, may elect to take against any Guarantor. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Secured Parties, hereby reserves all rights against each Guarantor.

19. Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents, Benefits.

(a) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any Specified Swap Agreement and any Other Lender Provided Financial Service Product, and each Guarantor certifies that the representations and warranties made therein with respect to such Guarantor are true and correct. Further, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees to perform, comply with, and be bound by all of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent applicable to such Guarantor.

-7-

(b) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges, represents, and warrants that it receives synergistic benefits by virtue of its affiliation with the Borrower and the other Guarantors and that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that such benefits, together with the rights of contribution and subrogation that may arise in connection herewith, are a reasonably equivalent exchange of value in return for providing this Guaranty.

20. Release of Guarantor. In the event that any Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents, such Guarantor shall, upon ceasing to be a Subsidiary, be released from this Guaranty automatically and without further action, and this Guaranty shall, as to such Guarantor, terminate and have no further force or effect. A Guarantor that is or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary may be released from this Guaranty in accordance with Section 10.10 [Authorization to Release Collateral and Guarantors] of the Credit Agreement. In connection with the merger of a Guarantor into another Loan Party, this Guaranty will be assumed (as a matter of law) by such other Loan Party and will, together with any guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations by such other Loan Party, constitute a single guaranty.

21. [Reserved].

22. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Loan Party at the time the guarantee under this Guaranty by any Specified Guarantor (as defined below), or the grant by such Guarantor of a security interest to secure such guarantee, becomes effective with respect to any Swap Obligation, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Guarantor with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Guarantor from time to time to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Loan Party’s obligations and undertakings under this Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Loan Party under this Section 22 shall remain in full force and effect until Payment In Full. Each Qualified ECP Loan Party intends this Section 22 to constitute, and this Section 22 shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Specified Guarantor for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act. For purposes hereof, “Specified Guarantor” shall mean any Guarantor that is not an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act (determined prior to giving effect to this Section 22).

23. Miscellaneous.

(a) Generality of Certain Terms. As used in this Guaranty, the terms “hereof,” “herein” and terms of similar import refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not to any particular term or provision.

(b) Amendments, Waivers. No amendment to or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless in a writing signed by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No delay or failure of the Administrative Agent in exercising any right or remedy under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies available hereunder, under any other agreement or instrument, by law, or otherwise.

-8-

The obligations of each Loan Party as set forth in this paragraph are strictly for the benefit of the Secured Parties and any successors and assigns of the Secured Parties as holders of any portion of the Obligations and shall not in any way impair or affect the Secured Parties’ right to foreclose against any parcel comprising a portion of the Property.

-4-

7. The Secured Parties’ Rights Under This Agreement. The rights of the Secured Parties under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights of each and every one of the Secured Parties under the Mortgages, the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Documents. Any default by any Loan Party under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any breach (to the extent such breach has not been cured within five (5) Business Days following the occurrence of such breach) of any representation, warranty or covenant made by any Loan Party in this Agreement) shall, at the Collateral Agent’s option, constitute an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents.

8. The Secured Parties’ Right to Cure. In addition to the other remedies provided to the Secured Parties in the Credit Agreement, the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents, should any Loan Party fail to abide by the terms and covenants of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties may, should it elect to do so in order to protect its or their security interest, cause the removal, remediation of or other corrective action with respect to any Hazardous Materials on, at, under or emanating from or affecting the Property and repair and remedy any damage caused by the Hazardous Materials or any such removal, remediation or corrective action, as necessary to assure substantial compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws. In such event, all funds expended by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties for such purposes, including, but not limited to, all reasonable attorneys’ fees, engineering fees, consultant fees and similar charges, shall become a part of the obligations secured by the Mortgages and shall be due and payable by each of the Loan Parties on demand. Each disbursement made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this provision shall bear interest at the lower of (a) the rate of interest applicable under Section 4.3(b) [Interest After Default] of the Credit Agreement, or (b) the highest rate allowable under applicable laws from the date any Loan Party shall have received written notice that the funds have been advanced by the Secured Parties until paid in full. The Borrower and each of the other Loan Parties shall permit the Collateral Agent and its agents and employees access to their respective Property (or in the case of the Borrower, any and all Properties) for any purpose consistent with this provision.

9. The Collateral Agent’s Right to Conduct an Investigation. In the event the Collateral Agent shall have reasonable cause to suspect that any Loan Party has failed to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent may obtain one or more environmental assessments of the Property, at the sole expense of any of the Loan Parties. The nature and scope of the environmental assessments shall be determined by the Collateral Agent in its reasonable judgment. Each Loan Party shall permit the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and the Collateral Agent’s agents and employees access to the Property for the purpose of conducting the environmental assessment and shall otherwise cooperate and provide such additional information as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Agent’s agents and employees. In the event any Loan Party fails to pay in accordance with this Section 9 for the cost of any such environmental audit, a Secured Party may pay for same. Each such payment made by any Secured Party shall become a part of the obligations secured by the Mortgages, shall be due and payable upon demand and shall bear interest after demand at the lower of either (a) the rate of interest that would be applicable under Section 4.3(b) [Interest After Default] of the Credit Agreement, or (b) the highest rate allowable under applicable laws, until paid in full by any Loan Party.

10. Scope of Liability. The liability under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by (a) any extension of time for performance required by the Loan Documents, (b) any exculpatory provisions in any of the Loan Documents limiting the Collateral Agent’s and/or any other Secured Party’s recourse, (c) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party or any other obligor under the Loan Documents, (d) the release of any Loan Party or any

-5-

other Person from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents by operation of law, any Secured Party’s voluntary act or otherwise, (e) the release or substitution, in whole or in part, of any security for any Loan Party’s obligations or (f) the Collateral Agent’s failure to record or improper recording or filing of any of the Mortgages or any UCC financing statements, or failure to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for any Loan Party’s obligations; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to any Loan Party or other Person and with or without consideration. The indemnity provided in Section 5 above shall survive (i) any sale, assignment or foreclosure of any of the Mortgages or other Loan Documents, the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or trustee’s sale, or any sale or transfer of all or part of the possession of or title to the Property, or (ii) the discharge of any of the other Loan Documents and/or the reconveyance or release of any of the Mortgages.

11. Preservation of Rights. No delay on the Collateral Agent’s and/or the Secured Parties’ part in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right.

12. Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served for all purposes when sent by registered or certified mail to any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders as provided in Section 11.5.1 [Notices Generally] of the Credit Agreement.

FORM OF

INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

THIS INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of March 8, 2018 and is made by and among CNX MIDSTREAM PARTNERS LP (formerly known as CONE Midstream Partners LP), a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), each of its Subsidiaries party hereto (the Borrower and each such Subsidiary being individually referred to herein as a “Company” and collectively as the “Companies”), and PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), for the Lenders (as defined below).

WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, by and among the Borrower, the guarantors now or hereafter a party thereto, the lenders now or hereafter a party thereto (the “Lenders”) and PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (the “Credit Agreement”, each capitalized term used herein shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meaning specified in the Credit Agreement), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agreed to provide certain loans and other financial accommodations to the Borrower;

WHEREAS, the Companies have or, in the future, may have liabilities, obligations or indebtedness owed to each other (the liabilities, obligations and indebtedness of each of the Companies to any other Company, now existing or hereafter incurred (whether created directly or acquired by assignment or otherwise), and interest and premiums, if any, thereon and other amounts payable in respect thereof and all other obligations and other amounts payable by any Loan Party to any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Subordinated Indebtedness”);

WHEREAS, the obligations of the Lenders to maintain the Commitments and make Loans to, and issue Letters of Credit on behalf of, the Borrower from time to time are subject to the condition, among others, that the Companies subordinate the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Obligations (such Obligations, the “Senior Debt”) in the manner set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to maintain the Commitments and continue to make Loans to and issue Letters of Credit on behalf of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

1. Subordinated Indebtedness Subordinated to Senior Debt. The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated by reference. All Subordinated Indebtedness shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior Payment In Full.

2. Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of any Company in the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to any such Company or to its creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of any such Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of assets

and liabilities of any such Company (a Company distributing assets as set forth herein being referred to in such capacity as a “Distributing Company”), then and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties as their respective interests may appear, Payment In Full (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any Subordinated Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company is entitled to receive any payment or distribution on account of the principal of or interest on such Subordinated Indebtedness, and, to that end, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment of the Senior Debt, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up event.

3. No Commencement of Any Proceeding. Each Company agrees that, so long as the Senior Debt shall remain unpaid, it will not commence, or join with any creditor other than the Lenders or the Administrative Agent in commencing, any proceeding, including, but not limited to, those described in Section 2 hereof, or other enforcement action of any kind against any other Company which owes it any Subordinated Indebtedness.

4. Prior Payment in Full of Senior Debt Upon Acceleration of Subordinated Indebtedness. If any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness owed by any Company becomes or is declared due and payable before its stated maturity (such portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness, the “Subordinated Debt Prepayment”), then and in such event, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive Payment In Full (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any such Subordinated Indebtedness is entitled to receive any payment thereon, and, to that end, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive the Subordinated Debt Prepayment amount for application to the payment of the Senior Debt.

5. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default. With respect to Subordinated Indebtedness for borrowed money, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or such an Event of Default would result from or exist after giving effect to a payment with respect to any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness, unless the Required Lenders shall have consented to or waived the same, so long as any of the Senior Debt shall remain outstanding, no payment shall be made by any Company owing Subordinated Indebtedness on account of principal or interest on any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness for borrowed money. No payment shall be made by any Company owing any Subordinated Indebtedness other than for borrowed money of such Subordinated Indebtedness after the earlier of (i) any proceeding described in clause (a) or (c) of Section 2 hereof or (ii) the declaration of the Senior Debt as due and payable before its stated maturity.

6. Payment Permitted if No Default. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any of the Companies, at any time except during the pendency of any of the conditions described in Sections 2, 4 and 5, from making the regularly scheduled payments of principal of or interest on any portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness, or the retention thereof by any of the Companies of any money deposited with them for the payment of or on account of the principal of or interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness.

7. Receipt of Prohibited Payments. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 2, 4, 5 and 6, a Company which is owed Subordinated Indebtedness by a Distributing Company shall have received any payment or distribution of assets from the Distributing Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be

-2-

held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties as their respective interests may appear, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by such Company, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to or held as collateral (in the case of noncash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of the Senior Debt in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

8. Rights of Subrogation. Each Company agrees that no payment or distribution to the Administrative Agent (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Secured Parties) pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle it to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until Payment In Full.

9. Instruments Evidencing Subordinated Indebtedness. Each Company shall cause each instrument for borrowed money which now or hereafter evidences all or a portion of the Subordinated Indebtedness to be conspicuously marked as follows:

“This instrument is subject to the terms of an Intercompany Subordination Agreement dated as of March 8, 2018 in favor of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Administrative Agent, which Intercompany Subordination Agreement is incorporated herein by reference. Notwithstanding any contrary statement contained in the within instrument, no payment on account of the principal thereof or interest thereon shall become due or payable except in accordance with the express terms of said Intercompany Subordination Agreement.”

Each Company will further xxxx its books of account in such a manner as shall be effective to give proper notice of the effect of this Agreement.

10. Agreement Solely to Define Relative Rights. The purpose of this Agreement is solely to define the relative rights of the Companies, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair, as between any of the Companies and their creditors other than the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, the obligation of the Companies to each other to pay the principal of and interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights among the Companies and their creditors other than the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, nor shall anything herein prevent any of the Companies from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable Law upon default under any agreement pursuant to which the Subordinated Indebtedness is created, subject to the rights, if any, under this Agreement of the Administrative Agent (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Secured Parties) to receive cash, property or securities otherwise payable or deliverable with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness.

11. No Implied Waivers of Subordination. No right of the Administrative Agent to enforce subordination, as herein provided, shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Company or by any act or failure to act by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, or by any non-compliance by any Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of any agreement pursuant to which the Subordinated Indebtedness is created, regardless of any knowledge thereof with which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may have or be otherwise charged. Each Company by its acceptance hereof shall agree that, so long as Payment in Full shall not have occurred, such Company shall not agree to sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or agree to compromise, the obligations of the other Companies with respect to their Subordinated Indebtedness, other than in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.

-3-

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may, to the extent not prohibited by the Loan Documents, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to any of the Companies except as required by the Loan Documents, without incurring responsibility to any of the Companies and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Agreement or the obligations hereunder of the Companies to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment, or extend the time of payment, renew or alter the Senior Debt or otherwise amend or supplement the Senior Debt or the Loan Documents; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing the Senior Debt; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Senior Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any of the Companies and any other Person.

12. Additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower. The Companies covenant and agree that they shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower created or acquired after the date of this Agreement and any other Restricted Subsidiary, in each case, that is required to join this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1.12 of the Credit Agreement, to join in this Agreement and subordinate to the Senior Debt all Indebtedness, loans or advances owed by any Loan Party to any such Restricted Subsidiary.

13. Continuing Force and Effect. This Agreement shall continue in force until Payment In Full, it being contemplated that this Agreement be of a continuing nature.

14. Modification, Amendments or Waivers. Any and all agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties hereunder, and any and all waivers or consents to Events of Default or other departures from the due performance of any Company hereunder, shall be made only by written agreement, waiver or consent signed by the Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of all the Secured Parties, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent being effective to bind all the Secured Parties.

15. Expenses. The Companies, unconditionally and jointly and severally, agree upon demand to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements for which reimbursement is customarily obtained, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel as set forth in Section 11.3 [Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] of the Credit Agreement.

16. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

17. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, and the obligations of each Company shall be binding upon their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that no Company may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein other than assignments and transfers permitted by the Credit Agreement. Except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, the duties and obligations of the Companies may not be delegated or transferred by the Companies or any Company without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, and any such delegation or transfer without such consent shall be null and void. Except to the extent otherwise required by the context of this Agreement, the word “Lenders” or “Secured Party” when used herein shall include, without limitation, any Lender in its capacity as a holder of a Note or an assignment of rights therein originally issued to a Lender under the Credit Agreement, and each such holder of a Note or assignment shall have the benefits of this Agreement to the same extent as if such holder had originally been a Lender under the Credit Agreement.

-4-

18. Joint and Several Obligations. Each of the obligations of each and every Company under this Agreement is joint and several. The Administrative Agent (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Secured Parties), may, in its sole discretion, elect to enforce this Agreement against any Company without any duty or responsibility to pursue any other Company and such an election by the Administrative Agent shall not be a defense to any action the Administrative Agent may elect to take against any Company. The Administrative Agent (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Secured Parties) hereby reserves all right against each Company.

Except for the Permitted Liens, and the Lien of this Mortgage, the Mortgagor may not, without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee, permit to exist or grant any Lien on all or any part of the Mortgaged Property or suffer or allow any of the foregoing to occur by operation of law or otherwise. If any lien or security interest other than a Permitted Lien (and such title defects and exceptions disclosed and subject to cure by the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement) is asserted against the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor shall promptly, and at its expense, pay the underlying claim in full or take such other action so as to cause it to be released or contest the same in compliance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the requirement of providing a bond or other security satisfactory to Mortgagee).

LEASEHOLD MORTGAGE PROVISIONS

4.1 Representations and Warranties; Estoppels. Mortgagor hereby represents, warrants and covenants that, with respect to Mortgaged Leases, and as to Sections 4.4 and 4.5, with respect to Mortgaged Easements, that are material to Mortgagor’s continuing business operations:

(a) Representations of Mortgagor. To the knowledge of Mortgagor, (1) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.21 of the Credit Agreement as they relate to the Mortgaged Leases are true and correct, and (2) Mortgagor is not in material default under any of the terms of the Mortgaged Leases and there are no circumstances which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute a material event of default under the Mortgaged Leases;

(b) Estoppel. Mortgagor shall, within thirty (30) days after written request from Mortgagee but not more often than once in any twelve month period, use its reasonable efforts to obtain from the lessor and deliver to Mortgagee a certificate setting forth the name of the tenant under any Mortgaged Lease and stating that such Mortgaged Lease is in full force and effect, is unmodified or, if such Mortgaged Lease has been modified, the date of each modification (together with copies of each such modification), that no notice of termination thereof has been served on Mortgagor, stating that no default or event which with notice or lapse of time (or both) would become a default is existing under, such Mortgaged Lease (or if any such default or event is existing, specifying the nature of such default or event), and stating the date to which rent has been paid.

4.2 No Merger. So long as any of the Secured Debt remains unpaid or unperformed, the fee title to and the leasehold estate in the Premises subject to any Mortgaged Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct notwithstanding the union of such estates in the lessor or Mortgagor, or in a third party, by purchase or otherwise. If Mortgagor acquires the fee title or any other estate, title or interest in the Premises, or any part thereof, the lien of this Mortgage shall attach to, cover and be a lien upon such acquired estate, title or interest and the same shall thereupon be and become a part of the Mortgaged Property with the same force and effect as if specifically encumbered herein. Mortgagor agrees to execute all instruments and documents that Mortgagee may reasonably require to ratify, confirm and further evidence the

-5-

lien of this Mortgage on the acquired estate, title or interest. Furthermore, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver, following an Event of Default, all such instruments and documents in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor. This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable as long as any portion of the Secured Debt remains unpaid.

4.3 Mortgagee as Lessee. If any Mortgaged Lease, that is material to the continuing business operations of Mortgagor, shall be terminated prior to the natural expiration of its term due to default by Mortgagor or any tenant thereunder, and if, pursuant to the provisions of such Mortgaged Lease, Mortgagee or its designee shall acquire from the lessor a new lease of the Premises, Mortgagor shall have no right, title or interest in or to such new lease or the leasehold estate created thereby, or renewal privileges therein contained.

4.4 No Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Mortgage shall not constitute an assignment of any Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement within the meaning of any provision thereof prohibiting its assignment and Mortgagee shall have no liability or obligation thereunder by reason of its acceptance of this Mortgage. Mortgagee shall be liable for the obligations of the tenant or grantee arising out of any Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement for only that period of time for which Mortgagee is in possession of the Premises or has acquired, by foreclosure or otherwise, and is holding all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest therein.

4.5 Required Landlord or Grantor Consents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage, to the extent that the assignment, transfer or conveyance of, or granting of a Lien or security interest in, any part of the Mortgaged Property by Mortgagor to Mortgagee under this Mortgage is prohibited by the terms of the instrument, contract or agreement evidencing or creating the Mortgaged Property, or would result in a breach or default by Mortgagor thereunder, or the termination thereunder, in each case due to the granting of a lien or security interest therein, the Mortgaged Property shall not include, and shall exclude, such instrument, contract or agreement for so long as such prohibition remains in place or until lessor consents to the assignment, transfer or grant of a Lien or security interest, as applicable.

DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE

5.1 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any or all of the following rights, remedies and recourses may be exercised:

(a) Acceleration. Any holder of any portion of the Secured Debt may declare that portion of the Secured Debt, or any portion thereof, to be immediately due and payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever (each of which hereby is expressly waived by Mortgagor), whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable.

(b) Entry on Mortgaged Property. Subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement and applicable law, Mortgagee may enter the Mortgaged Property and take exclusive possession thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating

(c) Operation of Mortgaged Property. Subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement, Mortgagee may hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Mortgaged Property upon such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may deem reasonable under the circumstances (including, without limitation, making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as Mortgagee deems necessary or desirable, also including drilling for and producing oil and gas from the Mortgaged Property), and apply all Rents and other amounts collected by Mortgagee in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7 hereof.

(d) Foreclosure and Sale. Mortgagee may institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage by judicial action, in which case the Mortgaged Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels, subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement. With respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Mortgagor agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At any such sale by virtue of any judicial proceedings, or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor shall be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor, and against all other Persons claiming or to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Mortgagor. Mortgagee may be a purchaser at such sale. If Mortgagee is the highest bidder, Mortgagee may credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to the Secured Debt pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents. In the event this Mortgage is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement of the Mortgaged Property is waived.

(e) Receiver. Mortgagee may make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Mortgagor or regard to the adequacy of the Mortgaged Property for the repayment of the Secured Debt, the appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Property, and Mortgagor irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Mortgaged Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and in a manner consistent with the terms of any applicable Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7 hereof.

(f) Other Remedies. Subject to the provisions of any applicable Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement, Mortgagee may exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted to Mortgagee with respect to all or any portion of the Secured Debt pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or otherwise available at law or in equity.

-7-

5.2 Separate Sales. To the extent not prohibited under the terms of any applicable Mortgaged Lease or applicable law, and subject to Section 3.2(b) hereof, the Mortgaged Property may be sold in one or more parcels and in such manner and order as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may elect. The right of sale arising out of any Event of Default shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.

5.3 Remedies Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive. Mortgagee shall have all rights, remedies and recourses with respect to the enforcement of all or any portion of the Secured Debt granted pursuant to the Loan Documents, and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights, (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Mortgagor or others obligated for the payment or performance of the Secured Debt or against the Mortgaged Property, or against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee, as the case may be, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefore shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by Mortgagee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses relating to any portion of the Secured Debt, or otherwise at law or equity shall be deemed to cure any Event of Default.

5.4 Release of and Resort to Collateral. Mortgagee may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Mortgaged Property, any part of the Mortgaged Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien or security interest created in or evidenced by this Mortgage or its status as a first and prior lien and security interest in and to the Mortgaged Property. For payment of the Secured Debt, Mortgagee may resort to any other security in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect.

5.5 Waiver of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Mortgaged Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of any Event of Default or of Mortgagee’s election to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for under the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents, or this Mortgage, and (c) any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation.

5.6 Discontinuance of Proceedings. If Mortgagee shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under this Mortgage and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Mortgagee shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Secured Debt, the Loan Documents, the Mortgaged Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Mortgagee shall continue as if the right, remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right of Mortgagee thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the Credit Agreement, or this Mortgage for such Event of Default.

-8-

5.7 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Rents, and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or other use of the Mortgaged Property, shall be applied by Mortgagee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless otherwise required by applicable law:

(a) to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Mortgaged Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, and selling the same, including, without limitation (1) receiver’s fees and expenses, including the repayment of the amounts evidenced by any receiver’s certificates, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement and (5) the payment of all rent and other charges under any applicable Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement;

(b) to the payment and performance of the Secured Debt, in such manner and order of preference as set forth in the Credit Agreement; and

(c) the balance, if any, to the Persons legally entitled thereto.

5.8 Occupancy After Foreclosure. Any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in accordance with Section 5.1(d) hereof will divest all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to the property sold. Subject to applicable law and any applicable Mortgaged Lease or Mortgaged Easement, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of the property purchased. If Mortgagor retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such sale, Mortgagor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and will, if Mortgagor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject to eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law.

5.9 Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs of Enforcement.

1. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Mortgagee under this Section 5.9, this Mortgage, any of the Loan Documents, or applicable law, shall bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the highest rate at which interest is then computed on any portion of the Secured Debt, and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Mortgage.

2. To the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Mortgagor shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Mortgage, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Secured Debt or any claim under this Mortgage and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting the rights and claims of Mortgagee in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise.

5.10 No Mortgagee in Possession. Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 5, the assignment of the Rents and Leases under Article 6, the security interests under Article 7, nor any other remedies afforded to Mortgagee hereunder, or at law or in equity shall cause Mortgagee to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Mortgagee to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.

ARTICLE VI

ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES

6.1 Reserved.

6.2 Assignment. In furtherance of and in addition to the assignment made by Mortgagor in Section 2.1 of this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and conveys to Mortgagee all of its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether now existing or hereafter entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all Rents. This assignment is an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagor shall have a revocable license from Mortgagee to exercise all rights extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to receive and collect all Rents and to hold the Rents in trust for use in the payment and performance of the Secured Debt, and to otherwise use the same. The foregoing license is granted subject to the conditional limitation that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not legal proceedings have commenced, and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the Secured Debt or solvency of Mortgagor, the license herein granted shall automatically expire and terminate, without notice to Mortgagor by Mortgagee (any such notice being hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor to the extent permitted by applicable law).
