Terms defined in the Credit Agreement between the Administrative Agent, such lenders and such borrower dated August 29, 2011 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), are used herein as therein defined, unless otherwise defined herein or the context otherwise requires.

R E C I T A L S:

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders amend the Credit Agreement and increase the Borrowing Base; and

WHEREAS, the Lenders are willing to amend the Credit Agreement under the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree as follows:

1. The following definitions are hereby added to Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement as follows:

“Eleventh Amendment to Credit Agreement” means the Eleventh Amendment to Credit Agreement dated November 25, 2014 between Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, amending the Credit Agreement.

“GAAP” means those generally accepted accounting principles and practices that are recognized as such by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants acting through its Accounting Principles Board or by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or through other appropriate boards or committees thereof. Any accounting principle or practice required to be changed by the Accounting Principles Board or Financial Accounting Standards Board (or other appropriate board or committee of such Boards) in order to continue as a generally accepted accounting principle or practice may be so changed.

2. The following definition located in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Borrowing Base” means the amount most recently determined and designated by the Administrative Agent as the Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 2.8.1, but in no event in excess of the Aggregate Commitment, as such Borrowing Base is reduced in accordance with Section 2.8.2 or other provisions hereof. The Borrowing Base under Section 2.8.1 is deemed to be $40,000,000 as of the date of the Eleventh Amendment to Credit Agreement.

3. For time periods after September 30, 2014, and for purposes of all financial statements required to be delivered under the Credit Agreement for fiscal quarters or years ending on or after December 31, 2014, all references to “IFRS” in the Credit Agreement (other than the definition of such term and except for references contained in Section 1.2) are hereby amended to instead refer to GAAP.

4. Section 1.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“1.2. Accounting Terms and Determinations; Changes in Accounting.

1.2.1. Unless otherwise specified herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted, all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made, and all financial statements required to be delivered hereunder shall be prepared in accordance with IFRS, with respect to periods and for financial statements covering periods ending on or before September 30, 2014, or in accordance with GAAP, with respect to periods and for financial statements covering periods ending on or after December 31, 2014, applied on a basis consistent (except for changes concurred in by the independent public accountants and with respect to which the Borrower shall have promptly notified the Administrative Agent on becoming aware thereof, and except for inconsistencies in the accounting methods used in the financial statements for periods ending on or prior to September 30, 2014 compared to the financial statements for periods ending on or after December 31, 2014 due to the Parent’s change from use of IFRS to GAAP) with the most recent financial statements of the Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent. All other provisions in this Agreement which require financial reporting on a consistent basis shall be subject to the exceptions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. Accounting principles are applied on a “consistent basis” when the accounting principles applied in a current period are comparable in all material respects to those accounting principles applied in a preceding period. Changes in the application of accounting principles which do not have a material impact on calculating the financial covenants herein shall be deemed comparable in all material respects to accounting principles applied in a preceding period.

1.2.2. The Borrower will not change its method of accounting, other than immaterial changes in methods, changes from use of IFRS to GAAP commencing with the financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending on December 31, 2014, changes thereafter permitted by GAAP in which the Borrower’s independent public accountants concur and changes required by a change in GAAP, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. To enable the ready and consistent determination of compliance by the Borrower with its obligations under this Agreement, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries will change the manner in which either the last day of its fiscal year or the last day of the first three fiscal quarters of its fiscal years is calculated without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.”

(ii) Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Amendment, the Borrower shall execute and deliver or cause the appropriate Person to execute and deliver such certificates, mortgages, amendments to mortgages and other security instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to ensure that the Administrative Agent has a first and prior Lien on Oil and Gas Properties that represent at least 80% of the PW9 Value of the Oil and Gas Properties utilized in determining the Borrowing Base.
