WAIVER, AGREEMENT AND AMENDMENT NO. 7 TO SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT

This WAIVER, AGREEMENT, AND AMENDMENT NO. 7 TO SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of June 12, 2013 (the “Effective Date”) is by and among ▇▇▇▇▇ Energy Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), the undersigned subsidiaries of the Borrower as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), the Lenders (as defined below), and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Energy Capital, Inc., in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

RECITALS

A.                                    The Borrower is party to that certain Second Lien Credit Agreement dated as of December 31, 2009 among the Borrower, the financial institutions party thereto from time to time, as lenders (the “Lenders”), and the Administrative Agent as heretofore amended (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”).

B.                                    The Borrower has requested that the Lenders (i) waive the Hedged Volume limitations until the next redetermination of the Borrowing Base under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement and (ii) amend the Credit Agreement as provided herein.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants, representations and warranties contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Section 1.                                           Defined Terms.  As used in this Agreement, each of the terms defined in the opening paragraph and the Recitals above shall have the meanings assigned to such terms therein.  Unless otherwise specifically defined herein, each term defined in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.

Section 2.                                           Other Definitional Provisions.  Article, Section, Schedule, and Exhibit references are to Articles and Sections of and Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified.  The words “hereof”, “herein”, and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  The term “including” means “including, without limitation,”.  Paragraph headings have been inserted in this Agreement as a matter of convenience for reference only and it is agreed that such paragraph headings are not a part of this Agreement and shall not be used in the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 3.                                           Waiver.  The Borrower has informed the Administrative Agent that the Borrower may not be in compliance with the Hedged Volume limitations set forth in Section 9.18(a)(ii) of the Credit Agreement until the Borrowing Base is next redetermined under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement (as amended by the First Lien Amendment (as defined below)) (the Event of Default that would result from such non-compliance as it may continue through and including the effective date of such Borrowing Base redetermination under the Senior

Revolving Credit Agreement, the “Subject Default”).  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders hereby waive the Subject Default.  The waiver by the Lenders described in this Section 3 is limited to the Subject Default and shall not be construed to be a consent to, or a permanent waiver of, Section 9.18(a)(ii) of the Credit Agreement, or any other terms, provisions, covenants, warranties or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents.  Except as expressly set forth herein with respect to the Subject Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressly reserve all their rights, remedies and claims with respect to the Loan Documents, including (a) the right to exercise any rights and remedies available to them in connection with any other present or future defaults with respect to the Credit Agreement or any other provision of any Loan Document and (b) the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to collect the full amounts owing to them under the Loan Documents.  The description herein of the Subject Default is based upon the information provided to the Lenders on or prior to the date hereof and shall not be deemed to exclude the existence of any other Defaults or Events of Default.  The failure of the Lenders to give notice to the Borrower of any such other Defaults or Events of Default is not intended to be nor shall be a waiver thereof.  The Borrower hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Lenders require and will require strict performance by the Borrower of all of its obligations, agreements and covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and no inaction or action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender regarding any Default or Event of Default (including but not limited to the Subject Default) is intended to be or shall be a waiver thereof other than the waiver of the Subject Default expressly provided for in this Section 3.  Other than the waiver of the Subject Default expressly provided for in this Section 3, the Borrower hereby also agrees and acknowledges that no course of dealing and no delay in exercising any right, power, or remedy conferred to any Lender in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, by statute, or otherwise shall operate as a waiver of or otherwise prejudice any such right, power, or remedy.

Section 4.                                           Amendment to Credit Agreement.  Section 9.18(a) (Commodity Swap Agreement) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the last sentence of clause (i) in its entirety with the following:

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including any provision of this clause (i), during the period commencing on the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date and ending on the date the Borrowing Base is redetermined under the Senior Revolving Credit Agreement after June 13, 2013, the Borrower will not, and will not permit any of the Guarantors to, enter into any Swap Agreement in respect of commodities.

Section 5.                                           Credit Parties Representations and Warranties.  Each Credit Party represents and warrants that: (a) after giving effect to this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and the representations and warranties contained in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any such representation or warranty that already is qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) on and as of the Effective Date as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that any such representation or warranty expressly relates solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty is true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representation or warranty that already is qualified or modified by materiality

in the text thereof) as of such earlier date; (b) after giving effect to this Agreement, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement are within the limited liability company power and authority of such Credit Party and have been duly authorized by appropriate limited liability company action and proceedings; (d) this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of such Credit Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and general principles of equity; (e) there are no governmental or other third party consents, licenses and approvals required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity and enforceability of this Agreement; and (f) the Liens under the Security Instruments are valid and subsisting and secure the Indebtedness (as such Indebtedness may be increased as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby).
