PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

A. The Borrower, the banks, financial institutions and other lending institutions from time to time parties thereto (each, a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) for the Lenders and as an Issuing Bank, CITIBANK, N.A., as an Issuing Bank and each other Issuing Bank from time to time party thereto, are parties to that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of March 1, 2017 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”).

B. The Borrower has requested that certain amendments and modifications be made to the Credit Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have agreed to enter into this Amendment with the Borrower in order to effectuate such amendments and modifications to the Credit Agreement and to increase the Borrowing Base, all as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined in this Amendment, each capitalized term used in this Amendment has the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement.

Section 2. Amendments to Credit Agreement. Each of the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby acknowledge that on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the terms of the Credit Agreement shall be amended as follows:

(a) The definition of “ABR” is hereby amended by inserting the following at the end thereof:

“ If ABR is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.10, then ABR shall be the greater of clause (a) and (b) and shall be determined without reference to clause (c). For the avoidance of doubt, if ABR shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.”

(b) The definition of “Applicable Margin” is hereby amended and restated as follows:

““Applicable Margin” shall mean, for any day, with respect to any ABR Loan or LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, or the Commitment Fee Rate, the rate per annum set forth in the grid below based upon the Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage in effect on such day:

Borrowing Base Utilization Grid

Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage	< 25%		>25% and < 50%		>50% and < 75%		>75% and < 90%		>90%
LIBOR Loans	2.00	%	2.25	%	2.50	%	2.75	%	3.00	%
ABR Loans	1.00	%	1.25	%	1.50	%	1.75	%	2.00	%
Commitment Fee Rate	0.50	%	0.50	%	0.50	%	0.50	%	0.50	%

Each change in the Commitment Fee Rate or Applicable Margin shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change.”

(c) The definition of “Collateral Coverage Minimum” is hereby amended by replacing the phrase “90%” with the phrase “85%”.

(d) Section 2.10(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

“(a) In the event that (x) in the case of Section 2.10(a)(i) below, the Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of Section 2.10(a)(ii) below, the Administrative Agent upon the advice of the Required Lenders and (z) in the case of Section 2.10(a)(iii) below, any Lender, shall have reasonably determined (in each case, which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):”

(e) Section 2.10(a)(i) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following parenthetical immediately after the last word thereof:

“(including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate or because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis)”

(f) Section 2.10(a)(ii) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the phrase “any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto),”.

(g) Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new Section 2.10(d) after Section 2.10(c) thereof:

“(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, if at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (i) the circumstances set forth

in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.1, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (d) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.10(d), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Notice of Conversion or Continuation that requests a conversion of any Borrowing to or the continuation of any Borrowing as a LIBOR Borrowing shall be ineffective and (y) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a LIBOR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purpose of this Agreement.”

(h) Section 10.5(i)(iii) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the phrase “2.75:1.00” with the phrase “3.00:1.00”.

(i) Section 10.6(e)(iii) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the phrase “2.75:1.00” with the phrase “3.00:1.00”.

(k) Section 10.10(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

“(a) Hedge Agreements with Approved Counterparties in respect of commodities entered into not for speculative purposes the notional volumes for which (when aggregated with other commodity Hedge Agreements then in effect), other than (i) puts, (ii) floors and (iii) basis differential swaps on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Hedge Agreements permitted under this Section 10.10(a), do not exceed, as of the date the latest hedging transaction is entered into under a Hedge Agreement (and for each month during the period during which such hedge

transaction is in effect), (x) eighty-five percent (85%) of the Credit Parties’ reasonably anticipated projected Hydrocarbon production, for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (which may be hedged with Hedge Agreements for crude oil, natural gas, and/or direct and/or basket product components of natural gas liquids) calculated separately on a monthly basis (as forecast based upon the Borrower’s reasonable and justifiable internal projections (assuming no curtailment or interruption of transportation for such projected production)) for the period remaining in the then current calendar year plus the next three (3) calendar years from the date of creation of such hedging transaction and (y) eighty-five percent (85%) of the Credit Parties’ total Proved Reserves for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (which may be hedged with Hedge Agreements for crude oil, natural gas, and/or direct and/or basket product components of natural gas liquids) calculated separately on a monthly basis (as such volumes are reflected in the Initial Reserve Report or the most recent Reserve Report delivered pursuant to Section 9.12(a), as applicable) for the period commencing with the end of the period specified in clause (x) above to the end of the sixty (60) month period after the date of creation of such hedging transaction (the “Ongoing Hedges”). Ongoing Hedges shall not, in any case, have a tenor greater than sixty (60) months. In addition to the Ongoing Hedges, in connection with a proposed or pending acquisition of Oil and Gas Properties (a “Proposed Acquisition”), the Credit Parties may also enter into incremental hedging transactions with respect to the Credit Parties’ reasonably anticipated projected Hydrocarbon production from the total Proved Reserves of the Credit Parties to be acquired pursuant to the Proposed Acquisition with notional amounts (when aggregated with other commodity Hedge Agreements then in effect), other than (i) puts, (ii) floors and (iii) basis differential swaps on volumes hedged pursuant to other Hedge Agreements permitted under this Section 10.10(a), that do not exceed, as of the date the latest any such hedging transaction is entered into under a Hedge Agreement (and for each month during the period during which such hedge transaction is in effect) 15% of the reasonably anticipated Hydrocarbon production, for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (which may be hedged with Hedge Agreements for crude oil, natural gas, and/or direct and/or basket product components of natural gas liquids) calculated separately on a monthly basis, from the Credit Parties’ total Proved Reserves (as forecast based upon the Initial Reserve Report or the most recent Reserve Report delivered pursuant to Section 9.12(a), as applicable) prior to such Proposed Acquisition (such that the aggregate shall not be more than 100% of such reasonably anticipated Hydrocarbon production prior to the consummation of such Proposed Acquisition) for a period not exceeding 36 months from the date of creation of such hedging transaction during the period between (i) the date on which such Credit Party signs a definitive acquisition agreement in connection with a Proposed Acquisition and (ii) the earliest of (A) the date of consummation of such Proposed Acquisition, (B) the date of termination of such Proposed Acquisition and (C) 90 days after the date of execution of such definitive acquisition agreement. However, all such incremental hedging contracts entered into with respect to a Proposed Acquisition

must be terminated or unwound within 90 days following the date of termination of such Proposed Acquisition;”

(l) Section 10.10 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new Section 10.10(e) after Section 10.10(d) thereof:

“(e) If, after the end of any calendar month, the aggregate volume of all Hedge Agreements in respect of commodities for which settlement payments were calculated in such calendar month and the preceding calendar month (other than (i) puts, (ii) floors and (iii) basis differential swaps on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Hedge Agreements permitted under Section 10.10(a)) exceeded, or will exceed, 100% of actual production of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (which may be hedged with Hedge Agreements for crude oil, natural gas, and/or direct and/or basket product components of natural gas liquids), calculated separately, in such calendar months, then the Borrower shall terminate, create off-setting positions, allocate volumes to other production the Borrower or any Subsidiary is marketing, or otherwise unwind existing Hedge Agreements, in each case within five (5) Business Days of the end of such calendar month (or such later time to which the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) such that, at such time, future hedging volumes will not exceed 100% of reasonably anticipated projected production from total Proved Reserves for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (which may be hedged with Hedge Agreements for crude oil, natural gas, and/or direct and/or basket product components of natural gas liquids), calculated separately, for the then-current and any succeeding calendar months.”

(m) Section 13.1(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the phrase “and subject to Section 2.10(d)” immediately after the first instance of the word “Agreement” therein.

Section 3. Scheduled Redetermination. Subject to the occurrence of the First Amendment Effective Date, the Administrative Agent hereby notifies the Borrower of the new Borrowing Base of $380,000,000 and the Lenders and the Borrower hereby agree that, from and after the First Amendment Effective Date until the next Scheduled Redetermination Date, the next Interim Redetermination Date or the next adjustment to the Borrowing Base pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions, whichever occurs first, the amount of the Borrowing Base shall be $380,000,000. The parties hereto hereby agree that the foregoing redetermination constitutes the Scheduled Redetermination with respect to April 1, 2018 and this Amendment constitutes the New Borrowing Base Notice with respect thereto.

Section 4. Ratification. The Borrower hereby ratifies and confirms all of its obligations under the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) and the other Credit Documents, and, in particular, affirms that, after giving effect to this Amendment, the terms of the Collateral Agreement and Mortgages secure, and will continue to secure, the Obligations.
