As used herein, “Material Project” means the construction or expansion of any capital project of any Group Member, the aggregate capital cost of which (inclusive of capital costs expended prior to the acquisition thereof) is reasonably expected by Parent to exceed, or exceeds $10,000,000 (a “Material Project”); provided that Parent may elect that one or more “phases” of the construction or expansion of a capital project be treated as an independent Material Project if (A) the aggregate capital cost of such “phase” is reasonably expected by Parent to exceed $5,000,000 and (B) the aggregate capital cost of such “phase”, together with all other “phases” of such construction or expansion of such capital project is reasonably expected by Parent to exceed $10,000,000. As used herein, “Material Project EBITDA Adjustments” means, with respect to each Material Project:
(A) prior to the date on which a Material Project has achieved commercial operation (the “Commercial Operation Date”) (but including the fiscal quarter in which such Commercial Operation Date occurs), a percentage (based on the then-current completion percentage of such Material Project as of the date of determination) of an amount to be approved by Administrative Agent as the projected Consolidated EBITDA attributable to such Material Project for the first 12-month period following the scheduled Commercial Operation Date of such Material Project (such amount to be determined based upon projected revenues from customer contracts, projected revenues that are determined by the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, to otherwise be highly probable, the creditworthiness and applicable projected production of the prospective customers, capital and other costs, operating and administrative expenses, scheduled Commercial Operation Date, commodity price assumptions and other factors deemed appropriate by Administrative Agent), which may, at Parent’s option, be added to actual Consolidated EBITDA for the fiscal quarter in which construction or expansion of such Material Project commences and for each fiscal quarter thereafter until the Commercial Operation Date of such Material Project (including the fiscal quarter in which such Commercial Operation Date occurs, but net of any actual Consolidated EBITDA attributable to such Material Project following such Commercial Operation Date); provided that if the actual Commercial Operation Date does not occur by the scheduled Commercial Operation Date, then the foregoing amount shall be reduced, for quarters ending after the scheduled Commercial Operation Date to (but excluding) the first full quarter after its Commercial Operation Date, by the following percentage
3
amounts depending on the period of delay (based on the period of actual delay or then-estimated delay, whichever is longer): (i) 90 days or less, 0%, (ii) longer than 90 days, but not more than 180 days, 25%, (iii) longer than 180 days but not more than 270 days, 50%, (iv) longer than 270 days but not more than 365 days, 75%, and (v) longer than 365 days, 100%; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing:
(1) no such Material Project EBITDA Adjustment shall be allowed with respect to a Material Project unless:
(x) at least 30 days (or such lesser period as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior to the last day of the fiscal quarter for which Parent desires to commence inclusion of such Material Project EBITDA Adjustment in Consolidated EBITDA (the “Initial Quarter”), Parent shall have delivered to Administrative Agent written pro forma projections of Consolidated EBITDA attributable to such Material Project EBITDA Adjustments, and
(y) prior to the last day of the Initial Quarter, Administrative Agent shall have approved (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) such projections and shall have received such other information (including updated status reports summarizing each Material Project currently under construction and covering original anticipated and current projected cost, capital expenditures (completed and remaining), the anticipated Commercial Operation Date, total Material Project EBITDA Adjustments and the portion thereof to be added to Consolidated EBITDA and other information regarding projected revenues, customers and contracts supporting such pro forma projections and the anticipated Commercial Operation Date) and documentation as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, and
(2) the aggregate amount of all Material Project EBITDA Adjustments, plus any MVC Adjustment as set forth in the following paragraph, during any period shall be limited to 20% of the total actual Consolidated EBITDA for such period (which total actual Consolidated EBITDA shall be determined without including any Material Project EBITDA Adjustments or MVC Adjustment).
4
In addition, for each fiscal quarter ending prior to December 31, 2013, Consolidated EBITDA may include, at Parent’s option, an adjustment (the “MVC Adjustment”) for an estimated quarterly recognition of earnings in respect of the Xxxxxxx Annual Minimum Volume under the Gathering Agreement for the period from January 1, 2013 through the end of such fiscal quarter, which adjustment shall be made in a manner, and subject to documentation, acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that the MVC Adjustment plus all Material Project EBITDA Adjustments shall be limited as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph (2).
(d) The definition of “Gathering Documents” in Section 1.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the word “material” before “gas gathering agreement” in line three thereof.
(e) The definition of “General Partner” in Section 1.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

(f) The definition of “Transaction Documents” in Section 1.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

(b) At any time that Parent has an Investment Grade Rating, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as at end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter was not greater than 5.00 to 1.00 (or 5.50 to 1.00 if such fiscal quarter ended during the period from and after a Specified Acquisition to and including the last day of the second full fiscal quarter following the fiscal quarter in which the Specified Acquisition occurred), the Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, elect for the Liens under the Security Instruments securing the Secured Obligations to be released (the date of such notice, “Collateral Release Date”), whereupon (A) Section 6.9(a) shall have no further force or effect and (B) the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to promptly release all of the Mortgaged Properties from the Liens of the Security Instruments.
Section 2.7. Financial Condition Covenants. Section 7.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:
(a) Consolidated Leverage Ratio.

(c) All determinations of Consolidated EBITDA (other than Section 7.1(b)) in respect of the periods ending as of March 31, 2013, June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013, shall use the annualized amount of Consolidated EBITDA (as otherwise determined pursuant to the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA”) for the period beginning January 1, 2013 and ending on such date (i.e., the one quarter ended March 31, 2013 times 4, the two quarters ended June 30, 2013 times 2, and the three quarters ended September 30, 2013 times 4/3rds).
