NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants, representations and warranties contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

AGREEMENT

 

Section 1.           Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein (including in the Recitals hereto) but not defined herein shall have the meanings as given them in the First Lien Credit Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires.

 

Section 2.            Certain Amendments.

 

(a)          Section 1.1 of the First Lien Credit Agreement is hereby amended by:

 

(i)          amending and restating the definition of “Fiscal Year” in its entirety to the following:

 

Fiscal Year” means any period of twelve consecutive calendar months ending on December 31; references to a Fiscal Year with a number corresponding to any calendar year (e.g., the “2017 Fiscal Year”) refer to the Fiscal Year ending on December 31 of such calendar year.

 

 

 

 

(ii)         amending the second sentence of the definition “PV9% Value” by replacing the phrase “Secured Parties” with the word “Lenders”;

 

(iii)        by amending the definition of “Reserve Report” by changing “December 31st” to “January 1st” and changing “June 30th” to “July 1st”.

 

(b)          Section 2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating Sections 2.8.2 and 2.8.3 of the First Lien Credit Agreement in their entirety to the following:

 

Section 2.8.2       Annual Scheduled Determinations of the Borrowing Base.

 

(a)          Promptly after January 1 of each calendar year, (whether before or after the Borrowing Base Initiation Date) commencing January 1, 2017, and in any event prior to March 1 (or, in the case of the January 1, 2017 Reserve Report only, prior to May 31, 2017), the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a Reserve Report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, prepared by an Approved Engineer, which Reserve Report shall be dated as of January 1 of such calendar year and shall set forth the proven and producing oil and gas reserves attributable to the Oil and Gas Properties owned directly by the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors and a projection of the rate of production and future net income, taxes, operating expenses and capital expenditures with respect thereto as of such date, based on pricing assumptions consistent with SEC reporting requirements at the time, together with additional data concerning pricing, hedging, quantities and purchasers of production, and other information and engineering and geological data as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may reasonably request.

 

(b)          If such January 1 of any calendar year is on or after the Borrowing Base Initiation Date, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Reserve Report and all such information, the Administrative Agent shall make an initial determination of a Borrowing Base, and upon such initial determination shall promptly notify the Lenders in writing of its initial determination of the proposed Borrowing Base. Such initial determination made by the Administrative Agent shall be so made by the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its sole discretion in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary practices and standards for oil and gas lending as they exist at the particular time. In no event shall the Proposed Borrowing Base exceed the sum of (x) the aggregate of the Revolving Loan Commitments of the Lenders plus (y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans. After having received notice of such proposal by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall have fifteen (15) days to approve or disapprove such proposal. If, at the end of such fifteen (15) days, any Lender has not communicated to the Administrative Agent its approval or disapproval, such failure to respond shall be deemed to be an approval of the new or reaffirmed Borrowing Base proposed by the Administrative Agent. If the Required Borrowing Base Lenders fail to approve on any such determination of the proposed Borrowing Base made by the Administrative Agent hereunder in such fifteen (15) day period, then the Administrative Agent shall poll the Lenders to ascertain the highest Borrowing Base then acceptable to the Required Borrowing Base Lenders for purposes of this Section 2.8.2 (it being understood that each Lender is deemed to have agreed to any and all Borrowing Base amounts that are lower than the amount actually approved to by such Lender) and, subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.8.2, such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base effective on the date specified in this Section 2.8. Upon agreement by the Administrative Agent and the Required Borrowing Base Lenders of the Borrowing Base, the Administrative Agent shall, by written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, designate the Borrowing Base available to the Borrower. Such designation shall be effective as of the Business Day specified in such written notice (or, if no effective date is specified in such written notice, the next Business Day following delivery of such written notice) and such Borrowing Base shall remain in effect until the next determination or redetermination or adjustment of the Borrowing Base in accordance with this Agreement. Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, any determination or redetermination of the Borrowing Base resulting in any increase of the Borrowing Base in effect immediately prior to such determination or redetermination shall require the approval of the Required Borrowing Base Lenders in their sole discretion in accordance with their respective customary practices and standards for oil and gas lending as they exist at the particular time.

 

 -2-- EXXI Amendment-

 

 

Section 2.8.3         Semi-Annual Scheduled Determination of the Borrowing Base.

 

(a)          Promptly after July 1 of each calendar year, commencing July 1, 2017, and in any event prior to September 1 of each calendar year, (whether before or after the Borrowing Base Initiation Date) the Borrower will make available for review by the Administrative Agent a Reserve Report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, prepared by the Borrower’s petroleum engineers, which report shall be dated as of July 1 of such calendar year and shall set forth the proven and producing oil and gas reserves attributable to the Oil and Gas Properties owned directly by the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors and a projection of the rate of production and future net income, taxes, operating expenses and capital expenditures with respect thereto as of such date, based on pricing assumptions consistent with SEC reporting requirements at the time, together with additional data concerning pricing, hedging, quantities and purchasers of production, and other information and engineering and geological data as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may reasonably request.

 

(b)          If such July 1 of any calendar year is on or after the Borrowing Base Initiation Date, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Reserve Report and all such information the Administrative Agent shall make an initial determination of a Proposed Borrowing Base, and upon such initial determination shall promptly notify the Lenders in writing of initial determination of the proposed Borrowing Base. Such initial determination shall be made in the same manner and be subject to the same approvals as prescribed above with respect to the annual review, and likewise the Administrative Agent shall communicate the results of such initial determination to the Lenders. After having received notice of such proposal by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall have fifteen (15) days to approve or disapprove such proposal. If, at the end of such fifteen (15) days, any Lender has not communicated to the Administrative Agent its approval or disapproval, such failure to respond shall be deemed to be an approval of the new or reaffirmed Borrowing Base proposed by the Administrative Agent. If the Required Borrowing Base Lenders fail to approve any such determination of the proposed Borrowing Base made by the Administrative Agent hereunder in such fifteen (15) day period, then the Administrative Agent shall poll the Lenders to ascertain the highest proposed Borrowing Base then acceptable to the Required Borrowing Base Lenders for purposes of this Section 2.8.3 (it being understood that each Lender is deemed to have agreed to any and all Borrowing Base amounts that are lower than the amount actually approved to by such Lender) and, subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.8.3, such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in this Section 2.8. Upon agreement by the Administrative Agent and the Required Borrowing Base Lenders of the amount of credit to be made available to the Borrower hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall, by written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, designate the new Borrowing Base available to the Borrower. Such designation shall be effective as of the Business Day specified in such written notice (or, if no effective date is specified in such written notice, the next Business Day following delivery of such written notice) and such new Borrowing Base shall remain in effect until the next determination or redetermination or adjustment of the Borrowing Base in accordance with this Agreement. Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, any determination or redetermination of the Borrowing Base resulting in any increase of the Borrowing Base in effect immediately prior to such determination or redetermination shall require the approval of the Required Borrowing Base Lenders in their sole discretion in accordance with their respective customary practices and standards for oil and gas lending as they exist at the particular time.
