Section 2.05Amendments to Section 9.19. Section 9.19 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Section 9.19Hedging Agreements.  Each Loan Party will not enter into any Hedging Agreements with any Person other than:

(a)Hedging Agreements in respect of commodities (i) with an Approved Counterparty and (ii) which, when aggregated with all other commodity Hedging Agreements of the Loan Parties then in effect (but excluding all basis differential swaps on volumes already hedged pursuant to other Hedging Agreements), do not have the net effect of constituting a call (whether under physical or derivative Hedging Agreements) on more than:

(A) for the first year during the period during which such Hedging Agreements are in effect, the greater of (1) 85% of the reasonably anticipated projected production from proved Oil and Gas Properties of the Loan Parties and (2) 75% of the reasonably anticipated projected production from Oil and Gas Properties of the Loan Parties as contemplated by the production forecast of the Loan Parties most recently delivered to the Administrative Agent (provided that to the extent such forecast does not cover the entire hedging period, the projected production rate applicable to the remaining portion of such hedging period shall be based on the projected production rate for the last quarter of such forecast), in each case for each of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, calculated separately;

4

 


 

(B) for the second year during the period during which such Hedging Agreements are in effect, 85% of the reasonably anticipated projected production from proved Oil and Gas Properties of the Loan Parties for each of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, calculated separately; and

(C) for the period after such two year period during which such Hedging Agreements are in effect, the greater of (1) 75% of the reasonably anticipated projected production from proved Oil and Gas Properties of the Loan Parties and (2) 85% of the reasonably anticipated projected production from proved, developed, producing Oil and Gas Properties of the Loan Parties, in each case for each of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, calculated separately.  

In no event shall any Hedging Agreement (1) be entered into for speculative or investment purposes or (2) be for a term of longer than 60 months; provided however, a Hedging Agreement which was entered into as a hedge but is deemed to be “speculative” for accounting purposes shall not be considered “speculative” under this Section 9.19(a) merely by virtue of such accounting treatment.

(b)Hedging Agreements in respect of interest rates with an Approved Counterparty, as follows: (i) Hedging Agreements effectively converting interest rates from fixed to floating, the notional amounts of which (when aggregated and netted with all other Hedging Agreements of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries then in effect) do not exceed the then outstanding principal amount of the Borrower’s Debt for borrowed money which bears interest at a fixed rate and (ii) Hedging Agreements effectively converting interest rates from floating to fixed, the notional amounts of which (when aggregated and netted with all other Hedging Agreements of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries then in effect) do not exceed (A) for revolving loans, seventy-five (75%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Borrower’s Debt for revolving loans which bear interest at a floating rate and (B) for term loans, one hundred percent (100%) of the then outstanding principal amount of the Borrower’s Debt for term loans which bear interest at a floating rate.

In no event shall any Hedging Agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party contain any requirement, agreement or covenant for the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary to post cash or other collateral or margin (except for Letters of Credit not exceeding $2,500,000 in the aggregate at any time and collateral subject to Liens allowed under Section 9.03(d)), other than pursuant to the Security Instruments for the benefit of the Secured Hedging Providers, to secure their obligations under such Hedging Agreement or to cover market exposures. The Loan Parties will not unwind, sell, terminate, restructure, modify or otherwise affect (“Unwind”) any Hedging Agreement in respect of commodities that was in effect at the time of the most recent Borrowing Base determination (the “Borrowing Base Hedging Contracts”) where the net marked to market economic effect of such Hedging Agreement Restructuring is negative (which, if such Hedging Agreement Restructuring is settled for cash only, shall equal the net amount of cash such Loan Parties receive), unless (a) such net marked to market economic effect of such Hedging Agreement Restructuring, when combined with the net marked to market economic effect of all other Hedging Agreement Restructurings

consummated during the period since the last Redetermination Date, is less than or equal to five percent (5%) of the value of the Borrowing Base then in effect, or (b) if such net marked to market economic effect of such Hedging Agreement Restructuring, when combined with the net marked to market economic effect of all other Hedging Agreement Restructurings consummated during the period since the last Redetermination Date, is greater than five percent (5%) of the Borrowing Base then in effect, the Borrowing Base shall be reduced effective immediately upon such Hedging Agreement Restructuring by an amount equal to the portion of the Borrowing Base attributable to such net economic effect of the Hedging Agreement Restructuring (based on the economic assumptions consistent with the Administrative Agent’s lending requirements at that time), and any mandatory prepayments required by Section 3.04(c)(iii) shall be made no later than one Business Day after the later of (x) the date notice of such Unwind is required to be given by the Borrower under Section 8.01(k) and (y) the date the Borrower receives written notice from the Administrative Agent of the amount of such Borrowing Base reduction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Loan Parties may Unwind the Hedging Agreements set forth on Schedule 9.19(a) (collectively, the “Aneth Hedging Agreements”) as part of the Aneth Sale as contemplated by the Aneth Purchase Agreement and novate or otherwise Unwind the Hedging Agreements set forth on Schedule 9.19(b) (collectively, the “Retained Hedging Agreements”) in connection with the Aneth Sale, (ii) the adjustment to the Borrowing Base associated with such Unwind of the Aneth Hedging Agreements and the Retained Hedging Agreements shall occur, without duplication, as described in Section 9.12(c)(iii) automatically upon the consummation of the Aneth Sale, and (iii) such Unwind of the Aneth Hedging Agreements and the Retained Hedging Agreements shall not count towards the five percent (5%) threshold described above for purposes of determining whether other Hedging Agreement Restructurings occurring during the period during which such Unwind of the Aneth Hedging Agreements and the Retained Hedging Agreements occurs exceed such five percent (5%) threshold for such period.”

Section 2.06Amendment to Credit Agreement Schedules. Schedule 9.19(a) attached hereto is hereby added to the Credit Agreement as a new Schedule 9.19(a) thereto, and Schedule 9.19(b) attached hereto is hereby added to the Credit Agreement as a new Schedule 9.19(b) thereto.  

ARTICLE III

Additional Agreements and Acknowledgments

6
