     2.2 Amended Definitions. The following definitions set forth in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement shall be and they hereby are amended in their respective entireties to read as follows:
     ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. For the avoidance of doubt, any Loan or Borrowing that accrues interest at a rate determined by reference to clause (c) of the definition of Alternate Base Rate shall constitute an ABR Loan or an ABR Borrowing, as the case may be, notwithstanding the fact that the interest rate is based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate.
     Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, (a) with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to (i) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (ii) the Statutory Reserve Rate and (b) with respect to any ABR Borrowing for any day, an interest rate per annum equal to (i) the LIBO Rate for a one month Interest Period on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) multiplied by (ii) the Statutory Reserve Rate.
     Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1%; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be based on the rate appearing on the Reuters BBA Libor Rates Page 3750 (or on any successor or substitute page of such page) at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time on such day. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively.
     Applicable Rate” means, for any day, with respect to any ABR Loan or Eurodollar Loan, or with respect to the Unused Commitment Fees payable hereunder, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “ABR Spread”, “Eurodollar Spread” or “Unused Commitment Fee Rate”, as the case may be, based upon the Borrowing Base Usage applicable on such date:
             
            Unused
Borrowing           Commitment
Base Usage   Eurodollar Spread   ABR Spread   Fee Rate
≥ 90%
  250 b.p.   162.5 b.p.   50 b.p.

     Each change in the Applicable Rate 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 change. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, for purposes of determining the Applicable Rate hereunder, the calculation of the Borrowing Base Usage shall be made after subtracting from the Aggregate Credit Exposure the aggregate amount of cash on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account as a result of the existence of any Defaulting Lender.
     Defaulting Lender” means any Lender, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (and in the case such Lender is also the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders), that has (a) failed to fund any portion of the Loans or participations in LC Disbursements required to be funded by it hereunder within three Business Days of the date required to be funded by it hereunder, (b) notified the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in writing that it does not intend to comply with any of its funding obligations under this Agreement or has made a public statement to the effect that it does not intend to comply with its funding obligations under this Agreement, (c) otherwise failed to pay over to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender any other amount required to be paid by it hereunder within three Business Days of the date when due, unless the subject of a good faith dispute, or (d) (i) become or is insolvent or has a parent company that has become or is insolvent or (ii) become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee or custodian appointed for it, or has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or appointment or has a parent company that has become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee or custodian appointed for it, or has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or appointment.

In the event that such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the “LIBO Rate” with respect to such Eurodollar Borrowing for such Interest Period shall be the rate at which dollar deposits of $5,000,000 and for a maturity comparable to such Interest Period are offered by the principal London office of the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period.
     Secured Parties” means the holders from time to time of the Obligations and “Secured Party” means any of them.
     2.3 Letters of Credit. Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
     (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $50,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment.

4


 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuing Bank shall not at any time be obligated to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless (x) the Borrower cash collateralizes such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the total LC Exposure (calculated after giving effect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.07(j) or (y) the Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the total LC Exposure.
     2.4 Letters of Credit. Section 2.07(j) of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
     (j) Cash Collateralization.
          (i) If at any time the Borrower elects to cash collateralize the LC Exposure of any Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.07(b), the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders (the “Cash Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the total LC Exposure at such time as calculated pursuant to clause (x) of Section 2.07(b) (less any amounts already on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account representing cash collateral for any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the total LC Exposure).
          (ii) If any Letter of Credit is outstanding at the time any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, upon the written request of the Issuing Bank demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days after receipt of such written request, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the total LC Exposure at such time by depositing in the Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the total LC Exposure at such time (less any amounts already on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account representing cash collateral for any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the total LC Exposure).
          (iii) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 66-2/3% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower

5


 

shall deposit in the Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to the total LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of ARTICLE IX.
          (iv) Deposits in the Cash Collateral Account made pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as Collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. So long as such Defaulting Lender remains a Defaulting Lender or such Event of Default is continuing, as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Cash Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits and interest at the rate per annum in effect for accounts of the same type maintained with the Administrative Agent at such time, which investments shall be of the type described in clause (b) of the definition of Permitted Investments and shall be made by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case, such investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent) and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing 66-2/3% or more of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.
          (v) If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral pursuant to paragraphs (i), (ii) or (iii) above, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after (x) in the case of cash collateral provided pursuant to paragraphs (i) or (ii) above, the applicable Defaulting Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender and (y) in the case of cash collateral provided pursuant to paragraph (iii) above, all Events of Default have been cured or waived. The Borrower may at any time request confirmation from the Administrative Agent that a Defaulting Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm such request or provide written confirmation to the

6


 

Borrower that such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender and the basis for such determination.
     2.5 Fees. Section 2.13(c) of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
     (c) Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, (i) fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger pursuant to the Fee Letter and (ii) fees payable upon any increase in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to Section 2.03.
     2.6 Indebtedness. Section 7.01(e) of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
     (e) Indebtedness of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries incurred to finance the acquisition, construction or improvement of any fixed or capital assets, including Capital Lease Obligations and any Indebtedness assumed in connection with the acquisition of any such assets or secured by a Lien on any such assets prior to the acquisition thereof, and extensions, renewals and replacements of any such Indebtedness that do not increase the outstanding principal amount thereof; provided that (i) in the case of any acquisition, construction or improvement of any fixed or capital asset, such Indebtedness (other than Capital Lease Obligations) is incurred prior to or within 90 days after such acquisition or the completion of such construction or improvement and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness permitted by this clause (e) shall not exceed $100,000,000 at any time outstanding;
     2.7 Financial Covenants. Section 7.11 of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
     (a) Consolidated Current Ratio. The Borrower will not permit the Consolidated Current Ratio as of the end of any fiscal quarter to be less than 1.00 to 1.00. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, for purposes of determining the Consolidated Current Ratio as of any date of determination, the calculation of Consolidated Current Assets shall include the aggregate amount of cash on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account as of such date as a result of the existence of any Defaulting Lender.
     (b) Leverage Ratio. The Borrower will not permit the ratio (the “Leverage Ratio”), determined as of the end of any fiscal quarter, of (A) Consolidated Funded Indebtedness as of the end of such fiscal quarter, to (B) Consolidated EBITDAX for the trailing four (4) fiscal quarter period ending on such date to be greater than 4.0 to 1.0. Unless an Event

7


 

of Default has occurred and is continuing, for purposes of determining the Leverage Ratio as of any date of determination, the calculation of Consolidated Funded Indebtedness shall be made by subtracting therefrom the aggregate amount of cash on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account as of such date as a result of the existence of any Defaulting Lender.
     2.8 Notices. Clause (i) of Section 11.01(a) of the Credit Agreement shall be and it hereby is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
