Commitment Letter

Ladies and Gentlemen:

BMO Harris Bank N.A. (“BMO Bank”) and BMO Capital Markets (“BMOCM” and, together with BMO Bank, the “Commitment Party”, “BMO”, “we” or “us”) understand that Halcón Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“you” or the “Borrower”), and certain of your subsidiaries (together with the Borrower, the “Debtors”) are considering filing voluntary petitions to commence cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) in order to implement a restructuring of the Debtors pursuant to a prepackaged plan of reorganization contemplated by the plan of reorganization substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Chapter 11 Plan” and the foregoing collectively, the “Transactions”).

In connection therewith, the Borrower has requested that (a) we structure, arrange and syndicate a $750.0 million senior secured reserve-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with an initial borrowing base of $275.0 million (the “Initial Borrowing Base”), (b) BMO Bank serve as sole administrative agent and (c) BMO Bank commit to provide a portion of the Credit Facility as set forth herein.

1. Commitments

BMO Bank is pleased to advise you of its commitment to provide 100% of the Initial Borrowing Base under the Credit Facility (BMO Bank, in such capacity, the “Initial Lender”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this letter and Exhibits B and C attached hereto (this letter, together with Exhibits A, B and C attached hereto, the “Commitment Letter”). Capitalized terms used in this letter but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Exhibits attached hereto.

2. Titles and Roles

It is agreed that (a) BMOCM will act as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner for the Credit Facility (acting in such capacities, the “Lead Arranger”) and (b) BMO Bank will act as sole administrative agent for the Credit Facility.

It is further agreed that BMO will have “left” and “highest” placement in any and all marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Credit Facility and shall hold the leading role and responsibilities conventionally associated with such placement, including maintaining the sole physical books for the Credit Facility. You agree that no other agents, co-agents, arrangers, co-arrangers, bookrunners, co-bookrunners, managers or co-managers will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than that expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters referred to below) will be paid in connection with the Credit Facility unless you and we shall so agree (it being understood and agreed that no other agent, co-agent, arranger, co-arranger, bookrunner, co-bookrunner, manager or co-manager shall be entitled to greater economics in respect of the Credit Facility than BMO). Notwithstanding the foregoing, BMO shall have the right, subject to your consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), to award titles to other financial institutions as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners (each, an “Additional Arranger” and, together with the Lead Arranger, the “Arrangers”) who are (or whose respective lending affiliates are, as applicable) Lenders (each, an “Additional Initial Lender”) that provide (or whose affiliates provide) commitments in respect of the Credit Facility (it being agreed that (a) each of the parties hereto shall, upon request of you or the Lead Arranger, execute an amendment (or amendment and restatement) or joinder to this Commitment Letter to reflect the commitments of any such financial institutions, pursuant to which each such Additional Initial Lender will assume a portion of the commitments with respect to the Initial Borrowing Base under the Credit Facility, and upon such execution the commitments of BMO Bank in respect to the Initial Borrowing Base under the Credit Facility will be permanently reduced on a dollar for dollar basis by the amount of the commitments to the Initial Borrowing Base of such Additional Initial Lender and (b) no such other Additional Arranger or Additional Initial Lender will have rights in respect of the management of the syndication of the Credit Facility (including, without limitation, in respect of “market flex” rights under the Arranger Fee Letter, over which BMO will have sole control)).

3. Syndication; Information

BMOCM, as Lead Arranger, intends to syndicate the Credit Facility (including, in our discretion, all or part of BMO Bank’s commitments hereunder) to a group of banks, financial institutions and other commercial bank lenders identified by us in consultation with you, and subject to your consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) (together with the Initial Lender and any Additional Initial Lender, the “Lenders”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter to the contrary, (a) the Initial Lender and any Additional Initial Lender shall not be relieved or novated from their respective obligations hereunder (including their respective obligations to fund the Credit Facility on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Credit Facility, including their respective commitments in respect thereof, until after the initial funding of the Credit Facility on the Closing Date, (b) no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of the Initial Lender’s or Additional Initial Lender’s commitments in respect of the Credit Facility until after the initial funding of the Credit Facility on the Closing Date (except in respect of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), upon execution and delivery of an amendment (or amendment and restatement) or joinder to this Commitment Letter to reflect the appointment of any financial institution as an Additional Agent or Additional Initial Lender as described in Section 2 above) and (c) unless you and we agree in writing, the Initial Lender and each Additional Initial Lender shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to their respective commitments in respect of the Credit

Facility, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred.

The Lead Arranger intends to commence syndication efforts promptly upon the execution of this Commitment Letter, and you agree actively to assist the Lead Arranger in completing a syndication satisfactory to us and you. Such assistance shall include, but not be limited to, until the earlier to occur of (i) a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Upfront Fee Letter) and (ii) forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date (such earlier date, the “Syndication Date”), (a) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit from your and your affiliates’ existing lending relationships, (b) direct contact between your senior management and advisors and the proposed Lenders at times and locations to be mutually agreed upon, (c) your preparing and providing to the Lead Arranger a customary confidential information memoranda and other customary marketing materials (including, without limitation, lender slides and/or other marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication) with respect to you and your properties, including financial information and Projections (as defined below), as the Lead Arranger may reasonably request in connection with the arrangement and syndication of the Credit Facility (all such information, memoranda and material, “Information Materials”) and (d) your hosting, with the Lead Arranger, of one or more meetings with prospective Lenders at such times and locations to be mutually agreed upon. You hereby authorize the Lead Arranger to download copies of the Borrower’s trademark logos from its website and post copies thereof on the SyndTrak site or similar workspace established by the Lead Arranger to syndicate the Credit Facility and use the logos on any confidential information memoranda, presentations and other marketing materials prepared in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facility or in any advertisements (to which you consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) that we may place after the closing of the Credit Facility in financial and other newspapers, journals, the World Wide Web, home page or otherwise, at our own expense describing our services to the Borrower hereunder. You also understand and acknowledge that we may provide to market data collectors, such as league table or other service providers to the lending industry, information regarding the closing date, size, type, purpose of, and parties to, the Credit Facility.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or any Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions, without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth above, none of the commencement or completion of syndication of the Credit Facility, the completion of a confidential information memorandum or other marketing materials, or compliance with any other provision set forth in this Commitment Letter (other than the conditions described in Section 5 of this Commitment Letter) shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or to the funding of the Credit Facility on the Closing Date.

The Lead Arranger will manage all aspects of the syndication in consultation with you, including decisions as to (a) the selection of institutions to be approached (subject to your consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and when they will be approached, (b) when commitments will be accepted, (c) which institutions will participate (subject to your consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (d) the allocation of the commitments among the Lenders and (e) the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the Lead Arranger will have no responsibility other than to arrange the syndication of the commitments as set forth herein and to perform the other obligations to be performed by the Lead Arranger as set forth herein, and the Lead Arranger is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to you with respect to the arrangement of the Credit Facility (including in connection with determining the terms of the Credit Facility) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Borrower or any other person. In consideration of the Commitment Party’s commitments and other agreements hereunder, effective upon your acceptance of this Commitment Letter

and continuing until the earlier of the Syndication Date and the termination of this Commitment Letter, you will ensure that there will be no competing arrangement, offering, placement, or syndication of any other debt financing similar to, or as a replacement of, all or any portion of the Credit Facility, excluding with respect to amendments, waivers and other similar agreements to the Existing Credit Agreement (as defined in Exhibit B) prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases or with respect to the DIP Facility (as defined in Exhibit B) (it being agreed that deferred purchase obligations, intercompany debt, capital leases, purchase money financings and equipment financings are not restricted by the foregoing).

You hereby represent and warrant that (a) all written information (including all Information Materials), other than financial projections and other forward-looking information (collectively, the “Projections”), information of a general economic or general industry nature (such non-excluded items, the “Information”), that has been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, when taken as a whole, does not or will not, when furnished to us, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (giving effect to all supplements thereto) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time furnished to us (it being recognized by the Commitment Party that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ from the projected results, and such differences may be material). You agree that if, at any time prior to the Closing Date, you become aware that any of the representations and warranties in the preceding sentence would be incorrect if such Information or Projections were furnished at such time and such representations were remade, in any material respect, then you will promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that such representations when remade would be correct, in all material respects, under those circumstances. You understand that in arranging and syndicating the Credit Facility, the Commitment Party may use and rely on the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof.

If requested, you also will assist us in preparing an additional version of the Information Materials (the “Public-Side Version”) to be used by prospective Lenders’ public-side employees and representatives (“Public-Siders”) who do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of United States federal securities laws) with respect to the Borrower, its affiliates and any of their respective securities (“MNPI”) and who may be engaged in investment and other market related activities with respect to the Borrower’s or its affiliates’ securities or loans. Before distribution of any Information Materials, you agree to execute and deliver to us (a) a customary letter in which you authorize distribution of the Information Materials to a prospective Lender’s employees willing to receive MNPI (“Private-Siders”) and (b) a separate customary letter in which you authorize distribution of the Public-Side Version to Public-Siders and represent that either (i) no MNPI is contained therein or (ii) neither the Borrower, nor any of its controlling or controlled entities has any debt or equity securities issued pursuant to a public offering or Rule 144A private placement and agree that if the Borrower, or any of its controlling or controlled entities is the issuer of any debt or equity securities issued pursuant to a public offering or Rule 144A private placement thereafter, you will publicly disclose any information contained in the Information Materials delivered to Public-Siders that constitutes MNPI at such time and, in the case of both clauses (a) and (b), exculpating us and our affiliates and the Borrower and its affiliates from any liability related to the use of the contents of the Information Materials by the recipients thereof. You also acknowledge that the Lead Arranger Public-Siders consisting of publishing debt analysts may participate in any meetings or telephone conference calls held pursuant to clause (d) of the second preceding paragraph; provided that such analysts shall not publish any information obtained from such meetings or calls (A) until the syndication of the Credit Facility has been completed upon the making of

allocations by BMOCM freeing the Credit Facility to trade or (B) in violation of any confidentiality agreement between you and the BMO.

The Borrower agrees that the following documents may be distributed to both Private-Siders and Public-Siders, unless the Borrower advises BMO in writing (including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distribution that such materials should only be distributed to Private-Siders: (a) administrative materials prepared by BMO for prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, bank allocation, if any, and funding and closing memoranda), (b) notification of changes in the Credit Facility’s terms and (c) drafts and final versions of the Loan Documents and administrative materials prepared by the Commitment Party for prospective Lenders (such as lender meeting invitations, allocations and funding and closing memoranda). If you advise us that any of the foregoing should be distributed only to Private-Siders, then Public-Siders will not receive such materials without further discussions with you.

I. Parties

Borrower:		Halcón Resources Corporation (“Halcón”), a Delaware corporation.

On the Closing Date (as defined below) the following subsidiaries will be Guarantors: Halcón Resources Operating, Inc., Halcón Holdings, Inc., Halcón Energy Properties, Inc., Halcón Permian, LLC, Halcón Field Services, LLC and Halcón Operating Co., Inc.

Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner:		BMO Capital Markets (“BMOCM”) will act as sole lead arranger and bookrunner (in such capacity, the “Lead Arranger”) for the Credit Facility (as defined below), and will perform the duties customarily associated with such role.

Administrative Agent:		BMO Harris Bank N.A. (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

LC Issuer:		BMO Harris Bank N.A. (acting through itself or such of its affiliates as it deems appropriate under the circumstances), each named agent under the Credit Facility and any other Lender reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (in such capacity, an “LC Issuer”).

Lenders:		A syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other commercial bank lenders, including BMO Bank (acting through itself or such of its affiliates as it deems appropriate under the circumstances), arranged by the Lead Arranger and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (the “Lenders”).

Majority Lenders:		Lenders holding more than 50.0% of the aggregate amount of the Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and unused Commitments under the Credit Facility (each as defined below) (the “Majority Lenders”).

Required Lenders:		Lenders holding not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate amount of the Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and unused Commitments under the Credit Facility (the “Required Lenders”).

II. Credit Facility

Type and Amount of Credit Facility:		A senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”; the commitments thereunder the “Commitments”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $750,000,000 (the loans thereunder, the “Loans”), subject to the Borrowing Base (as defined below) then in effect.

Availability:		Subject to the Borrowing Base then in effect, the Credit Facility shall be available on a revolving basis during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Maturity Date”) in accordance with the terms hereof and subject to satisfaction of applicable conditions precedent. Availability under the Credit Facility shall be equal to the lesser of (a) the then-effective aggregate Commitments and (b) the then-effective Borrowing Base.

Letters of Credit:		A portion of the Credit Facility not in excess of $50,000,000 shall be available for the issuance of letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) by the LC Issuers. The commitment to provide Letters of Credit shall be ratable among each LC Issuer. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date after the earlier of (a) twelve (12) months after the date of issuance and (b) five business days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for the automatic renewal thereof; provided further that any Letter of Credit may expire after the date referred to in clause (b) above if (i) the LC Issuer consents to such expiration date and (ii) such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized or backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the LC Issuer and the Borrower. Drawings under any Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrower (whether with its own funds or with the proceeds of Loans) on the same business day. To the extent that the Borrower does not so reimburse the LC Issuer, the Lenders shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the LC Issuer on a pro rata basis.

Use of Proceeds:		The proceeds of the Loans will be used by the Borrower (a) on the Closing Date, to refinance in full the indebtedness under that certain Junior Secured Debtor-In-Possession Credit Agreement, dated on or about August 7, 2019, among the Borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Borrower, as guarantors thereunder, the lenders party thereto and Wilmington Trust, N.A., as administrative agent (the “DIP Facility”), (b) for working capital and other general corporate purposes, (c) to issue Letters of Credit, (d) for transactions fees and expenses and (e) for fees and expenses related to the Borrower’s emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases. The Borrower will not use any proceeds for (a) the purpose of purchasing or carrying directly or indirectly any margin stock or for any other purpose which would cause this transaction to constitute a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U or (b) in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws or applicable Sanctions (in each case to be defined in the Loan Documents).

Security and Priority:		The Loans and other obligations under (a) the Credit Facility, (b) cash management products between the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent or an affiliate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender and (c) each hedging agreement between the Borrower or any of its

subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent or an affiliate of the Administrative Agent or a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender shall be jointly and severally guaranteed by the Guarantors and the Borrower (with respect to secured hedge obligations and secured cash management obligations for which a Guarantor is the primary obligor) and ratably secured by first priority, perfected liens and security interests on (subject to customary exceptions and other exceptions to be agreed), whether now or hereafter acquired, (i) substantially all personal property (including a pledge of 100% of the stock of each of the Borrower’s subsidiaries (limited to 65% of all the voting equity of any foreign subsidiaries)), subject to exceptions to be agreed, (ii) oil and gas properties of the Credit Parties comprising not less than 85% of the total value of the PV-9 from the Borrowing Base Properties (as defined below) and (iii) all deposit accounts, securities accounts and commodity accounts of the Credit Parties which accounts shall be subject to control agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date (or such later date as may be reasonably agreed by the Administrative Agent); provided that the Loan Documents shall contain limited exceptions to the requirement to enter into such control agreements with respect to (A) deposit accounts that have a balance of no greater than $1.0 million, individually, and $3.0 million in the aggregate for all such accounts and (B) certain types of other accounts to be agreed (collectively, and together with all proceeds thereof, the “Collateral”).

On the Closing Date, the Borrower will also deliver acceptable evidence of title on not less than 85% of the total value of the PV-9 from the Borrowing Base Properties (as defined below) evaluated in the Initial Reserve Report.

All the above-described pledges and security interests shall be created on terms and pursuant to documentation consistent with the Documentation Principles (as defined below).

Borrowing Base:

The “Borrowing Base” shall be the loan value assigned to the proved reserves attributable to the Borrower’s and its subsidiaries’ oil and gas properties located within the geographic boundaries of the United States as set forth in the reserve report most recently delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement (the “Borrowing Base Properties”).

As of the Closing Date, the Borrowing Base will be set initially at an amount equal to $275.0 million (the “Initial Borrowing Base”) until the next scheduled redetermination of the Borrowing Base or the Borrowing Base is otherwise adjusted or redetermined as described herein (it being understood that the first scheduled redetermination of the Borrowing Base shall occur on or about May 1, 2020 (such date, the “Initial Borrowing Base Redetermination Date”)).

The Borrowing Base will be redetermined on a semi-annual basis, with the parties having the right to interim unscheduled redeterminations as described below. The Borrowing Base will also be subject to interim adjustments in connection with (a) liquidations or unwinds of hedging agreements, (b) dispositions of Borrowing Base Properties, (c) the Credit Parties’ failure to provide the minimum required satisfactory title information, (d) the incurrence of Specified Additional Debt and (e) to the extent applicable, failure to satisfy the Post-Closing Hedging Covenant, in each case as described below.

Scheduled Borrowing Base redeterminations will occur on a semi-annual basis each May 1st and November 1st, commencing on or about May 1, 2020, based upon a reserve report prepared as of the immediately preceding December 31st and June 30th, respectively, and delivered to the Administrative Agent on or before April 1st and October 1st, respectively. Each December 31st reserve report will be prepared by an independent petroleum engineering firm reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and each June 30th reserve report will be prepared by an independent petroleum engineering firm reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent or internally by the Borrower consistent with the procedures used in the immediately preceding reserve report prepared by an independent petroleum engineer. In the case of the June 30th reserve report, if such reserve report is prepared internally by or under the supervision of the Borrower’s chief engineer as set forth above, the Borrower shall certify that such reserve report is true and accurate in all material respects (with appropriate exceptions for projections and cost estimates) and, except as otherwise specified therein, has been prepared in all material respects in accordance with the procedures used in the immediately preceding December 31st reserve report. In addition, the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, and the Borrower, each may request one additional unscheduled Borrowing Base redetermination during each period between scheduled Borrowing Base redeterminations; provided, that no request for an unscheduled Borrowing Base redetermination may be made by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders prior to the Initial Borrowing Base Redetermination Date.

Decisions regarding the amount of the Borrowing Base will be made at the sole credit discretion of the Lenders based upon the value of the Borrowing Base Properties as set forth in the most recent reserve report and in accordance with each Lender’s normal and customary standards and practices for determining the value of oil and gas properties based upon its usual and customary criteria for reserve based lending as they exist at such time. Increases in the amount of the Borrowing Base will require approval of all Lenders, and decreases or maintenance of the amount of the Borrowing Base will require approval of the Required Lenders.

If the Borrower or any subsidiary (a) liquidates or unwinds any hedging agreement upon which the Lenders relied in determining the Borrowing Base or (b) disposes of Borrowing Base Properties, and the Borrowing Base value attributable to such liquidated or unwound hedging agreement and/or the Borrowing Base value of such disposed Borrowing Base Properties, since the last scheduled redetermination exceeds, individually or in the aggregate, when combined with all such other liquidated or unwound hedging agreements and disposed Borrowing Base Properties since the last scheduled redetermination, ten percent (10%) of the then-effective Borrowing Base, then the Borrowing Base shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Borrowing Base value assigned to the such liquidated hedging agreement or disposed Borrowing Base Properties in the then-effective Borrowing Base.

The Borrowing Base shall be adjusted as a result of the Credit Parties’ failure to deliver acceptable evidence of title on not less than 85% of the total value of the PV-9 from the Borrowing Base Properties unless cured or otherwise rendered moot by the delivery of additional title information.

		The Borrowing Base shall be adjusted in connection with the issuance of any permitted unsecured senior or senior subordinated indebtedness after the Closing Date (such additional unsecured senior or senior subordinated loans or notes, “Specified Additional Debt”), by an amount equal to $0.25 for every $1.00 of Specified Additional Debt incurred, other than any Specified Additional Debt incurred to refinance any Specified Additional Debt (only to the extent that the aggregate principal amount of such refinancing indebtedness does not result in an increase in the principal amount thereof); provided, that, in the event a Borrowing Base Deficiency (as defined below) exists at the time of incurrence of Specified Additional Debt (after giving effect to the adjustment required hereby), then the Borrower shall be required to prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of the net cash proceeds of such Specified Additional Debt or such Borrowing Base Deficiency. If the Credit Parties fail to satisfy the Post-Closing Hedging Covenant (as defined below) on or before the Post-Closing Hedging Date (as defined below), the Administrative Agent shall have the right to reduce the Borrowing Base then in effect, on the Post-Closing Hedging Date, by an amount determined by the Administrative Agent acting in its sole discretion and consistent with its normal oil and gas lending criteria as it exists at the particular time (but in any event in an amount not more than the Borrowing Base value attributable to the commodity hedging agreements not entered into in connection with the Post-Closing Hedging Covenant).

III. Certain Payment Provisions

Fees and Interest Rates:		As set forth in Annex I.

Maturity:		The fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Maturity Date”).

Optional Prepayments:		Loans may be prepaid at any time on three (3) business day’s prior notice for Eurodollar Loans (as defined in Annex I) and one (1) business day’s prior notice for ABR Loans (as defined in Annex I), in writing, without premium or penalty in minimum amounts to be agreed upon, subject to reimbursement of the Lenders’ “breakage costs” in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans prior to the last day of the relevant interest period. Amounts repaid under the Credit Facility may be reborrowed.

Mandatory Prepayments:		If, as a result of (a) a scheduled redetermination of the Borrowing Base or (b) any adjustment of the Borrowing Base as a result of the failure to deliver satisfactory title information, the sum of outstanding Loans and the Lender’s exposure in respect of Letters of Credit exceeds the lesser of (x) the aggregate Commitments and (y) the Borrowing Base, a deficiency (a “Borrowing Base Deficiency”) shall exist, and the Borrower will be required to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency notifying the Administrative Agent with 10 days that it intends to take one or more of the following actions (provided that if the Borrower fails to elect any of the following actions within 10 days it shall be deemed to have elected option (i) hereof):

		(i) within 30 days, prepay the Loans (and cash collateralize any such deficiency attributable to Letter of Credit exposure) in an amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency, (ii) prepay the Loans (and cash collateralize any such deficiency attributable to Letter of Credit exposure) in not more than six equal monthly installments, in an aggregate amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency (with the first such payment to be made within 30 days), (iii) within 30 days, provide additional collateral not evaluated in the most recently delivered reserve report and/or evaluated but not mortgaged in the form of proved oil and gas properties having a Borrowing Base value determined by the Required Lenders sufficient to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency or (iv) a combination of the foregoing options (i), (ii) and (iii) sufficient to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency. If a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists as a result of a Borrowing Base adjustment for an asset disposition, an unwind or termination of a hedging agreement, the failure of the Borrower to satisfy the Post-Closing Hedging Covenant on or before the Post-Closing Hedging Date or an incurrence of Specified Additional Debt, within one business day of such asset disposition, unwind or termination of a hedging agreement, Post-Closing Hedging Date or incurrence of Specified Additional Debt, as applicable, the Borrower will be required to prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency, and if any Borrowing Base Deficiency remains after prepaying all of the Loans as a result of outstanding Letters of Credit, cash collateralize such excess. Any mandatory prepayment made by the Borrower shall not require or trigger a reduction of the Commitments under the Credit Facility.

Optional Commitment Reductions:		Upon prior written notice to be agreed, the Commitments may be reduced by the Borrower in minimum amounts to be agreed upon or terminated in whole, subject to reimbursement of the Lenders’ “breakage costs” in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans prior to the last day of the relevant interest period. If, as a result of any termination or reduction of the Commitments, a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the Borrower will be required to prepay the Loans on the date of such reduction or termination in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and if any remains after prepaying all of the Loans as a result of outstanding Letters of Credit, cash collateralize such excess.

IV. Certain Conditions

Initial Conditions:		The availability of the initial borrowing under the Credit Facility on the Closing Date shall be conditioned only upon satisfaction or waiver of (a) the delivery of a customary borrowing notice, (b) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5 of the Commitment Letter and (c) the conditions set forth in Exhibit C (such requirements, the “Initial Conditions”). For purposes of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters, “Closing Date” shall mean the date of the satisfaction or waiver of the Initial Conditions and the initial funding of the Credit Facility.

In the case of partial assignments (other than to another Lender, to an affiliate of a Lender or an approved fund), the minimum assignment amount shall be $5.0 million, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. The Lenders shall also be permitted to sell participations in their Loans. Participants shall have the same benefits as the Lenders with respect to yield protection and increased cost provisions.

Pledges of Loans in accordance with applicable law shall be permitted without restriction. Promissory notes shall be issued under the Credit Facility upon request. No assignments or participations shall be permitted to be made to the Borrower or any of its affiliates or to natural persons.

Annex I

Interest and Certain Fees

Pricing Grid:

The applicable margin and applicable commitment fee will be determined in accordance with the following table:

Level	Borrowing Base Usage	Eurodollar Loans	ABR Loans	Commitment Fee
V	> 90%	300.0 bps	200.0 bps	50.0 bps
IV	> 75% < 90%	275.0 bps	175.0 bps	50.0 bps
III	> 50% < 75%	250.0 bps	150.0 bps	50.0 bps
II	> 25% < 50%	225.0 bps	125.0 bps	37.5 bps
I	< 25%	200.0 bps	100.0 bps	37.5 bps

		Borrowing Base Usage at any time is based on total outstanding Loans, Letters of Credit and reimbursement obligations under the Credit Facility as a percentage of the Borrowing Base.

Interest Rate Options:		The Borrower may elect that the Loans comprising each borrowing bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

		As used herein:

		“Alternate Base Rate” means the highest of (i) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal in the U.S. as the prime rate in effect (the “Prime Rate”), (ii) the NYFRB Rate from time to time plus 0.5% and (iii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for a one month interest period plus 1%. If the ABR as determined pursuant to the foregoing would be less than 1.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1.00%. “Adjusted LIBO Rate” means the LIBO Rate, as adjusted for statutory reserve requirements for eurocurrency liabilities. “Applicable Margin” means a percentage determined in accordance with the pricing grid. “Commitment Fee Rate” means a percentage determined in accordance with the pricing grid. “Federal Funds Effective Rate” means, for any day, the rate calculated by the NYFRB based on such day’s federal funds transactions by depositary institutions, as determined in such manner as the NYFRB shall set forth on its

		public website from time to time, and published on the next succeeding Business Day by the NYFRB as the federal funds effective rate, provided that if the Federal Funds Effective Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to zero for the purposes of calculating such rate. “Interest Period” means a period of one, two, three or six months (as selected by the Borrower).

		“Interpolated Rate” means, at any time, for any interest period, the rate per annum (rounded to the same number of decimal places as the LIBO Screen Rate) determined by the Administrative Agent (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) to be equal to the rate that results from interpolating on a linear basis between: (a) the LIBO Screen Rate for the longest period for which the LIBO Screen Rate is available) that is shorter than the Impacted Interest Period; and (b) the LIBO Screen Rate for the shortest period (for which that LIBO Screen Rate is available) that exceeds the Impacted Interest Period, in each case, at such time. “LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing for any interest period, the LIBO Screen Rate at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such interest period; provided that if the LIBO Screen Rate shall not be available at such time for such interest period (an “Impacted Interest Period”) then the LIBO Rate shall be the Interpolated Rate.

		“LIBO Screen Rate” means, for any day and time, with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing for any interest period, the London interbank offered rate as administered by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any other Person that takes over the administration of such rate for a period equal in length to such interest period as displayed on pages LIBOR01 or LIBOR02 of the Reuters screen that displays such rate (or, in the event such rate does not appear on a Reuters page or screen, on any successor or substitute page on such screen that displays such rate, or on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion); provided that if the LIBO Screen Rate as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to zero for the purposes of calculating such rate. “NYFRB Rate” means, for any day, the greater of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day and (b) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate in effect on such day; provided, that if any of the aforesaid rates shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to zero for the purposes of calculating such rate. “Overnight Bank Funding Rate” means, for any day, the rate comprised of both overnight federal funds and overnight Eurodollar Borrowings by U.S.-managed banking offices of depository institutions, as such composite rate shall be determined by the NYFRB as set forth on its public website from time to time, and published on the next succeeding Business Day by the NYFRB as an overnight bank funding rate (from and after such date as the NYFRB shall commence to publish such composite rate).

Interest Payment Dates:		In the case of Loans bearing interest based upon the Alternate Base Rate (“ABR Loans”), quarterly in arrears. In the case of Loans bearing interest based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate (“Eurodollar Loans”), on the last day of each relevant Interest Period and, in the case of any Interest Period longer than three months, on each successive date three months after the first day of such Interest Period.

Commitment Fees:		The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the unused amount of the commitment of such Lender. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears and on the date that is the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date of termination of the Commitments.

Letter of Credit Fees:		The Borrower shall pay a participation fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans on the face amount of each such Letter of Credit. Such participation fee shall be shared ratably among the Lenders and shall be payable quarterly in arrears.

		A fronting fee equal to the greater of (i) $500 or (ii) 0.25% per annum on the face amount of each Letter of Credit, shall be payable quarterly in arrears to the applicable LC Issuer for its own account. In addition, customary administrative, issuance, amendment, payment and negotiation charges shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank for its own account.

Default Rate:		During the continuation of a payment or bankruptcy event of default, and during the continuation of any other event of default after the Administrative Agent has delivered notice to the Borrower, all outstanding principal, fees and other obligations shall bear interest at 2.00% above the rate applicable to ABR Loans.

Rate and Fee Basis:		All commitment fees and all per annum rates shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days (or 365/366 days, in the case of ABR Loans the interest rate payable on which is then based on the Prime Rate) for actual days elapsed.
