Notwithstanding any other provision of this Fourth Amendment, the Borrowing Base may be subject to further adjustments from time to time pursuant to Section 2.07(e), Section 8.13(c), Section 9.12(d), Section 9.12(f) or Section 9.12(g) of the Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) the redeterminations set forth in clauses (i)-(iii) above shall be in lieu of the April 1, 2020 Scheduled Redetermination and shall not constitute Interim Redeterminations and (y) the next Scheduled Redetermination shall be the October 1, 2020 Scheduled Redetermination.
Section 6.Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto hereby agree that the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts shall (i) be reduced from $1,100,000,000.00 to $625,000,000 effective as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, (ii) be reduced from $625,000,000 to $612,500,000 effective as of June 1, 2020 and (iii) be reduced from $612,500,000 to $600,000,000 effective as of July 1, 2020. In connection with the foregoing reductions of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts and the redetermination of the Borrowing Base provided in Section 5 above, upon each such reduction of the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts, each Lender’s Elected Commitment Amount shall be reduced ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage so that they equal the reduced Aggregate Elected Commitment Amount at such time and Annex I to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed amended at such time to reflect such reduction to each Lender’s Elected Commitment and the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts.
Section 7.Conditions Precedent. This Fourth Amendment shall become effective as of the date when each of the following conditions is satisfied (or waived in accordance with Section 12.02 of the Credit Agreement) (the “Fourth Amendment Effective Date”):
7.1.Executed Counterparts of Fourth Amendment. The Administrative Agent shall have received from the Borrower, each Guarantor and the Lenders constituting the Required Lenders (in such number as may be requested by the Administrative Agent) executed counterparts of this Fourth Amendment signed on behalf of such Person.
12



7.2.No Default. After giving effect to the limited waiver in Section 2 and the amendments in Section 4, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred which is continuing.
7.3.Further Assurances. The Administrative Agent shall have received such other documents as the Administrative Agent or its special counsel may reasonably require.
The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to declare this Fourth Amendment to be effective when it has received documents confirming or certifying, to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, compliance with the conditions set forth in this Section 7 or the waiver of such conditions as permitted hereby. Such declaration shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties to the Credit Agreement for all purposes.
Section 8.Post-Closing Covenant.
8.1.Title. On or before May 12, 2020 (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), the Administrative Agent shall have received title information satisfactory to the Administrative Agent setting forth the status of title to at least 80% of the total value of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report.
8.2.Mortgages. On or before May 12, 2020 (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), the Administrative Agent shall have received from the Borrower duly executed and notarized mortgages and/or mortgage supplements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent so that, after giving effect to the recording of such mortgages and/or mortgage supplements, the Administrative Agent shall be reasonably satisfied that it has first priority, perfected Liens (subject only to Excepted Liens identified in clauses (a) to (d) and (f) of the definition thereof, but subject to the provisos at the end of such definition) on at least 90% of the total value of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the Reserve Report most recently delivered pursuant to Section 8.12(a) of the Credit Agreement.
The Borrower's failure to satisfy the obligations set forth in this Section 8 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.
Section 9.Miscellaneous.
9.1.Confirmation and Effect. The provisions of the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Fourth Amendment, shall remain in full force and effect following the effectiveness of this Fourth Amendment, and, except as set forth in Section 2 and Section 3 of this Fourth Amendment, this Fourth Amendment shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. Each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or any other word or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, and each reference in any other Loan Document to the Credit Agreement or any word or words of similar import shall be and mean a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.
13



9.2.No Waiver. Neither the execution by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of this Fourth Amendment, nor any other act or omission by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or their officers in connection herewith, shall be deemed a waiver by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any Defaults or Events of Default which may exist, which may have occurred prior to the date of the effectiveness of this Fourth Amendment or which may occur in the future under the Credit Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents, except as set forth in Section 2 and Section 3 of this Fourth Amendment. Similarly, nothing contained in this Fourth Amendment shall directly or indirectly in any way whatsoever either: (a) impair, prejudice or otherwise adversely affect the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ right at any time to exercise any right, privilege or remedy in connection with the Loan Documents with respect to any Default or Event of Default except as expressly provided for in Section 2 and Section 3 of this Fourth Amendment, (b) except as expressly provided herein, amend or alter any provision of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any other contract or instrument, or (c) constitute any course of dealing or other basis for altering any obligation of the Borrower or any right, privilege or remedy of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any other contract or instrument.
9.3.Ratification and Affirmation; Representations and Warranties. Each Credit Party hereby (a) acknowledges the terms of this Fourth Amendment; (b) ratifies and affirms its obligations under, and acknowledges its continued liability under, the Guaranty and Security Agreement, the Mortgages and each other Loan Document to which it is a party and agrees that each Loan Document to which it is a party remains in full force and effect as expressly amended hereby and (c) represents and warrants to the Lenders that as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the limited waiver set forth in Section 2, the limited forbearance in Section 3 and the amendments herein: (i) all of the representations and warranties contained in each Loan Document to which it is a party are true and correct in all material respects (or, if already qualified by materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar qualification, true and correct in all respects), except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, such representations and warranties shall continue to be true and correct in all material respects (or, if already qualified by materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar qualification, true and correct in all respects) as of such specified earlier date, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (iii) no event or events have occurred which individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
9.4.Release of Claims. The Borrower and the other Credit Parties on their own behalf and on behalf of their predecessors, successors, heirs, legal representatives and assigns (collectively, the “Releasing Parties”), hereby acknowledge and stipulate that as of the date hereof, none of the Releasing Parties has any claims or causes of action of any kind whatsoever against Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys or representatives, or against any of their respective predecessors, successors or assigns (each of the foregoing, collectively, the “Released Parties”). Each of the Releasing Parties hereby forever releases, remises, discharges and holds harmless the Released Parties from any and all claims, causes of action, demands and liabilities of any kind whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, liquidated or nonliquidated, disputed
14



or undisputed, known or unknown, which any of the Releasing Parties has relating in any way to any event, circumstance, action or failure to act by the Released Parties on account of or in any way touching, concerning, arising out of or founded upon the Credit Agreement (without giving effect to the Fourth Amendment), the other Loan Documents (to the extent in effect prior to the date hereof) and/or the transactions contemplated or otherwise evidenced thereby, in each case, to the extent arising on or prior to the date hereof. Each Credit Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.
9.5.Counterparts. This Fourth Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto in any number of separate counterparts, and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of this Fourth Amendment by facsimile or email transmission (including via DocuSign or other similar electronic signature technology) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.
9.6.No Oral Agreement. This Fourth Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed in connection herewith and therewith represent the final agreement between the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or unwritten oral agreements of the parties. There are no subsequent oral agreements between the parties.
9.7.GOVERNING LAW. THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
9.8.Payment of Expenses. In accordance with Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses incurred in connection with this Fourth Amendment, any other documents prepared in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent.
9.9.Severability. Any provision of this Fourth Amendment which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
9.10.Successors and Assigns. This Fourth Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
9.11.Loan Document. This Fourth Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document” under and as defined in Section 1.02 of the Credit Agreement.
15



9.12.No Novation. The parties hereto agree that this Fourth Amendment does not in any way constitute a novation of the existing Credit Agreement, but is an amendment of the Credit Agreement.
