ARTICLE II.

SCOPE OF LEASE

2.1 Leased Facilities. Effective as of the Lease Commencement Date, Meade hereby leases to Transco, and Transco hereby leases from Meade, Meade’s undivided joint ownership interest in the Central Penn Line (“Leased Facilities”).

2.2 Use of Leased Facilities. During the effective term of this Lease, Transco will have full possessory and operational rights to the Leased Facilities, including 100% of the pipeline capacity of the Central Penn Line.

2.3 Facilities Upon Termination. Upon termination of this Lease and receipt by Transco of the necessary authorizations from the FERC, the Leased Facilities shall revert to Meade. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Operation and Maintenance Agreement and the Construction and Ownership Agreement, Transco shall return the Leased Facilities to the condition existing as of the Lease Commencement Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

2.4 Meade’s Facilities Obligations. Meade shall preserve and maintain, throughout the effective term of this Lease, all of its ownership rights in and to the Central Penn Line to ensure the continued use by Transco of the Leased Facilities in the operation of Transco’s pipeline system. Provided that Transco performs its obligations hereunder, Meade hereby covenants that Transco shall have and enjoy the quiet and peaceable possession and use of the Leased Facilities during the effective term of this Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.4 is not intended to, and shall not, restrict any right of Meade under the Construction and Ownership Agreement to sell or assign its ownership rights in the Central Penn Line.

ARTICLE III.

ARTICLE IV.

TERM OF LEASE

4.1 Effective Date. This Lease shall be effective as of the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until terminated in accordance with the terms hereof. The effective term of this Lease shall be determined pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 below.

4.2 Term. This Lease shall remain in force and effect for a term of twenty (20) years beginning with the Lease Commencement Date unless terminated earlier in accordance with Section 4.3 (“Lease Term”). Subject to the receipt of any necessary authorizations from the FERC, this Lease shall terminate upon the expiration of the Lease Term.

4

4.3 Early Termination of Lease Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) if the primary term of the service agreement under Transco’s Rate Schedule FT providing for firm transportation service of 500,000 dt/day to be entered into between Transco and Cabot Oil & Gas Corporation (“Cabot”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Precedent Agreement (Atlantic Sunrise Project), dated February 5, 2014, between Transco and Cabot (such precedent agreement is referred to herein as the “Cabot Precedent Agreement” and such service agreement, as the same may be assigned or released to another Person, is referred to herein as the “River Road Service Agreement”) is not extended to remain in effect for twenty (20) years following the Lease Commencement Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of the River Road Service Agreement, then Transco shall have the right to terminate this Lease at the end of the fifteenth (15th) year following the Lease Commencement Date (“Early Termination Date”), subject to the receipt of any necessary authorizations from the FERC, provided that such termination right must be exercised, if at all, by Transco providing written notice thereof to Meade at least [*****] months prior to the Early Termination Date, or else such right shall be waived; (ii) Transco shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the termination of the River Road Service Agreement if such termination of the River Road Service Agreement is due to the shipper’s failure to pay reservation charges thereunder (after any applicable cure periods) or shipper’s failure to provide credit support in an amount not greater than three (3) months of reservation charges thereunder; (iii) Transco shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the termination of the Construction and Ownership Agreement; and (iv) Meade shall have the right to terminate this Lease in accordance with Section 5.4(a). If Transco terminates this Lease under (ii) above, then Transco shall use good faith efforts to collect any monies it is entitled to from the shipper and shall pay to Meade its proportionate share of all proceeds it receives under such agreement in order to mitigate Meade’s loss of revenue resulting from the Lease termination. Meade’s proportionate share for purposes of the foregoing sentence shall be equal to (1) the daily charge per dt equivalent of the Monthly Lease Charge, divided by (2) the daily reservation rate per dt being charged by Transco under the River Road Service Agreement as of the date of termination of such agreement.

4.4 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Lease, the Parties shall be discharged from any further obligations hereunder to the other Party, including any obligation to provide (in the case of Meade) or to pay for (in the case of Transco) the lease of facilities hereunder; provided, however, that termination of this Lease shall not relieve either Party from any obligation already accrued prior to the date of such termination nor shall such termination deprive a Party of any remedy otherwise available to it.

ARTICLE V.

CHARGES AND PAYMENT

5.1 Monthly Lease Charge. Beginning with the Lease Commencement Date and continuing through the Lease Term, Transco shall pay to Meade a monthly lease charge of $[*****] (“Monthly Lease Charge”) subject to renegotiation under Section 5.5 hereof and reduction under Section 3.2(b) of the Construction and Ownership Agreement, as appropriate. If the first day of the Lease Term occurs after the first day of a month, then the Monthly Lease Charge for such month shall be the Monthly Lease Charge multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such month that the Lease was in effect divided by the total number of days in such month. If the last day of the Lease Term occurs other than on the last day of a month, then the Monthly Lease Charge for the final month of the term of this Lease shall be likewise pro-rated for the number of days in the month that this Lease was in effect.

5

5.2 Terms of Payment. Meade shall submit an invoice to Transco on or before the tenth (10th) day of each month for the Monthly Lease Charge due hereunder for the preceding month. Transco shall pay Meade the amount of such invoice within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. Such payment shall be by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by Meade.

5.3 Non-Payment under River Road Service Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Transco’s obligation hereunder to pay the Monthly Lease Charge shall be suspended for any period of time that the shipper under the River Road Service Agreement fails to pay to Transco the applicable reservation charges thereunder, provided that (i) during such period Transco uses good faith efforts to collect the amounts owed by the shipper under the River Road Service Agreement, and (ii) upon payment by the shipper of the amounts owed under the River Road Service Agreement, Transco shall likewise make payments of amounts owed for Monthly Lease Charges due hereunder (such payments by Transco shall be in the same proportion to the amounts owed for the Monthly Lease Charges as the shipper’s payments are to the amounts owed for the reservation charges under the River Road Service Agreement). If despite Transco’s good faith efforts to collect the amounts owed under the River Road Service Agreement the shipper’s failure to pay continues beyond all waiting periods set forth in the applicable provisions of Transco’s Tariff governing a shipper’s failure to pay, Transco shall either (y) exercise its right to terminate the River Road Service Agreement in accordance with Section 4.3, or (z) promptly commence good faith negotiations with Meade to determine a mutually agreeable course of action.

5.4 Late Payment.

(a) If Transco fails to make timely payment of the amount of an invoice under this Lease, then Meade shall be entitled to collect the amount of such invoice together with interest thereon calculated at a rate (which in no event shall be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law) equal to two percent (2%) per annum over the prime rate as published by the Wall Street Journal from time to time and in effect during the applicable period. Interest shall accrue on unpaid amounts, including unpaid interest compounded daily, beginning on the payment due date of the invoice and shall terminate when such invoice is paid. If such failure to pay continues for thirty (30) days after payment is due, Meade, in addition to any other remedy it may have at law (except for termination of this Lease, which shall be subject to the following), may notify Transco in writing of its nonpayment, allowing Transco sixty (60) days to make payment of any unpaid amount and to provide assurances satisfactory to Meade that such non-payment will not recur. If Transco fails to make payment of any unpaid amount within such sixty (60) day period, then Meade may terminate this Lease upon ten (10) days written notice to Transco and the FERC, provided that if Transco makes payment in full within such 10-day period, such termination shall not be effected and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect pursuant to the terms hereof. If Meade terminates this Lease in accordance with the foregoing and Transco does not make payment within such 10-day period, then Transco agrees that Meade may seek relief at law and/or in equity, including without limitation injunctive relief and/or specific performance (and in that regard, injunctive relief and/or specific performance may be sought by Meade without proof of any actual or special damages).

6

(b) If Transco fails to make timely payments more than two (2) times in any six (6) consecutive month period, then, until Transco thereafter makes timely payments for twelve (12) consecutive months, Meade may require Transco to pay the Monthly Lease Charge for the upcoming three (3) months quarterly in advance.

5.5 Renegotiation of Monthly Lease Charge. If the Project Costs (either estimated or actual) for the Central Penn Line exceed the CPL Original Capital Estimate (“Cost Overrun”) and in connection with the Cost Overrun Transco and Cabot execute an amendment to the Cabot Precedent Agreement and/or the River Road Service Agreement to set forth a higher negotiated daily reservation rate than originally set forth in such agreement(s), then Transco shall promptly notify Meade thereof. Such notification shall include the amount of the increase in the negotiated daily reservation rate attributable to the Cost Overrun. Promptly following Meade’s receipt of such notification, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Lease to increase the Monthly Lease Charge to reflect the same percentage increase in the negotiated daily reservation rate under the Cabot Precedent Agreement and/or the River Road Service Agreement attributable to the Cost Overrun. The effective date of such increase in the Monthly Lease Charge shall be the same as the effective date of the above-described amendment to the Cabot Precedent Agreement and/or the River Road Service Agreement.

ARTICLE VI.

FORCE MAJEURE

6.1 Effect of Force Majeure. If by reason of Force Majeure either Party hereto is rendered unable, wholly or in part, to carry out its obligations under this Lease, and if such Party gives notice and reasonably full particulars of such event of Force Majeure in writing, by electronic mail or by facsimile, to the other within a reasonable period of time (which shall not exceed, in any event, two (2) Business Days) after the occurrence of the event of Force Majeure, the Party giving such notice, so far as and to the extent that it is affected by such Force Majeure shall, subject to Section 6.3, be relieved of its obligations under this Lease affected by such event of Force Majeure and shall not be liable in damages during the continuance of any inability so caused so long as the affected Party is using its reasonable efforts to remedy or otherwise to alleviate such event of Force Majeure as quickly as reasonably possible.

6.2 Definition of Force Majeure. As used in this Lease, the term “Force Majeure” shall mean acts of God, strikes, lockouts, industrial disturbances, acts of the public enemy or terrorists, wars, blockades, insurrections, riots, epidemics, landslides, lightning, earthquakes, fires, droughts, tornados, hurricanes, storms, crevasses, floods, washouts, arrests, the order of any Governmental Authority, quarantines, expropriation or confiscation, vandalism, sabotage, civil disturbances, relocation of facilities, explosions, breakage or accidents to machinery or lines of pipe, freezing of or damage to wells or delivery facilities, National Weather Service warnings or advisories, whether official or unofficial, that result in the evacuation of facilities, well blowouts, failure of surface equipment or pipelines, accidents, breakdowns, inability to obtain or unavoidable delay in obtaining material, equipment, supplies, permits, rights-of-way or labor to perform or to comply with any obligation or condition of this Agreement, or any other causes,

7

whether of the kind enumerated in this Agreement or otherwise, that are not reasonably within the control of the Party claiming Force Majeure. Nothing herein shall be construed to require a Party to settle any strikes, lockouts, industrial disturbance or disagreements with landowners by acceding to the demands of any opposing party when such course is inadvisable in the discretion of the Party having difficulty.

6.3 Negligence or Willful Misconduct. An event of Force Majeure shall not relieve the affected Party of its obligations hereunder to the extent that its negligence or willful misconduct created such event of Force Majeure nor shall an event of Force Majeure relieve a Party from its obligations to make payments due hereunder, nor shall an event of Force Majeure relieve a Party from its obligations to remedy or alleviate the event of Force Majeure.

6.4 Monthly Lease Charge Credits. If by reason of Force Majeure pursuant to Section 6.1 herein, Meade is rendered unable, wholly or in part, to carry out its obligations under this Lease and as a result Transco is unable to redeliver the quantities of gas tendered for delivery through the Central Penn Line under the Cabot Service Agreement (“Article VI Interruption”), and, due to such Article VI Interruption Transco is required pursuant to Transco’s Tariff or FERC order to provide reservation charge credits, then (i) Transco shall promptly provide written notice to Meade of Transco’s requirement to provide reservation charge credits (including the sum of such reservation charge credits and reasonable supporting data), and (ii) the Monthly Lease Charge for the month in which such suspension occurs shall be reduced by an amount equal to (A) the Monthly Lease Charge multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such month that this Lease was suspended and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such month; provided, however, that in no event shall such credit exceed the sum of the reservation charge credits that Transco provides under the Cabot Service Agreement in connection with such Article VI Interruption.

ARTICLE VII.

APPLICATIONS FOR GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS

7.1 Applications for Governmental Approvals. After the Effective Date, Transco shall proceed with due diligence to obtain from any Governmental Authority having competent jurisdiction over the matters covered by this Lease the authorizations necessary to implement the terms of this Lease, including the necessary authorizations from the FERC (“FERC Authorizations”), all as further described in the Construction and Ownership Agreement.
