PRODUCER COMMITMENTS

Section 2.1 Producer’s Dedication. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 2.2, Section 2.3, Section 2.5, Section 3.8 and Section 3.9), and except for the Excluded Interests, commencing on the Effective Date and continuing through the term of this Agreement, (a) Producer hereby exclusively makes the following “Dedication” to Gatherer and the Gathering System: (i) dedicates and commits all of Producer Group’s current and future Interests, and Gas from such Interests, whether in place or produced and severed therefrom, in the Dedication Area, (ii) dedicates and commits to deliver all Gas produced from ▇▇▇▇▇ operated by Producer Group and/or produced from non-operated ▇▇▇▇▇ that are owned by Producer Group for gathering under this Agreement, and (iii) commits to deliver all Gas from ▇▇▇▇▇ located within the Dedication Area that is not owned by Producer Group to the extent that Producer Group controls or has the right to market such Gas for the term of this Agreement (the Gas described in the foregoing subparts (i), (ii) and (iii) being “Dedicated Gas”), and (b) Producer agrees not to deliver any such Dedicated Gas to any other gatherer, purchaser, or marketer or other Person prior to delivery to Gatherer at the Receipt Point(s). The Parties agree and acknowledge that, subject to Section 2.5, to the extent that a Transferee acquires any portion of the Interests (including the ▇▇▇▇▇ located in the Dedication Area), such Transferee shall only receive rights and obligations hereunder as to such Interests, and this Agreement shall not apply to any other Interests that may be owned by the Transferee or its Affiliates at the time of such Transfer or subsequently acquired by such Transferee or its Affiliates within the Dedication Area. Additionally, if there is a Change of Control with respect to Producer (or any member of Producer Group which owns Dedicated Interests at the time of such Change of Control), then, following such Change of Control, the dedication provisions contained in this Agreement shall only apply to the Interests owned by Producer (or such member of Producer Group) at the time of such Change of Control, and this Agreement shall not apply to (x) any other Interests subsequently acquired by Producer (or such member of Producer Group) following such Change of Control or (y) any other Interests owned at the time of such Change of Control, or subsequently acquired, by any Persons who become Affiliates of Producer (or such member of Producer Group) following such Change of Control.

Section 2.2 Conflicting Dedications. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.1 to the contrary, Producer Group shall have the right to comply with each of the Conflicting Dedications set forth in Exhibit D hereto and any other Conflicting Dedication entered into by a non-Affiliated predecessor-in-interest to Producer Group that is applicable as of the date of acquisition thereof to any Dedicated Interest acquired after the Effective Date (but not any entered into in connection with such acquisition); provided, however, that Producer Group shall each have the right to comply with Conflicting Dedications only until the last Day of the Month of the later of (a) the date in which the termination of such Conflicting Dedication occurs and (b) the date on which Gatherer is ready, willing and able to accept and provide services to Gas previously subject to the Conflicting Dedication pursuant to the terms set forth in this Agreement, and following such date, Producer Group shall no longer have the right to comply with such Conflicting Dedication. Producer Group shall not take any voluntary action or inaction (including the exercise of any right) to extend the term of such Conflicting Dedication. Not later than [***] Months prior to the expiration or potential expiration (taking into consideration Producer’s obligations set forth in the preceding sentence) of any Conflicting Dedication, Producer shall deliver notice to Gatherer of such upcoming expiration or potential expiration and, at Gatherer’s request, shall provide Gatherer with the information that Gatherer reasonably requests in order for Gatherer to assess the economic viability of providing Services to the Conflicting Dedication after termination of such Conflicting Dedication. [***]. Producer represents that, except as set forth in Exhibit D, Dedicated Gas is not as of the Effective Date subject to any Conflicting Dedication. If Dedicated Gas produced from a Well on a Well Pad is subject to a Conflicting Dedication that Producer Group has the right to comply with under this Section 2.2, Producer Group has the right, in complying with such Conflicting Dedication, to deliver all Dedicated Gas from such Well Pad in accordance with the Conflicting Dedication, even if all ▇▇▇▇▇ on such Well Pad are not subject to such Conflicting Dedication, provided that such ▇▇▇▇▇ are not in the process of, nor have been connected to the Gathering System (whether producing, shut-in, temporarily abandoned or which has been spud or as to which drilling, completion, reworking or other well operations have commenced) nor has a Connection Notice been previously delivered by Producer for any such Well.

Section 2.3 Producer’s Reservations. Producer reserves the following rights with respect to Dedicated Gas for itself and for the operator of the relevant Dedicated Interests: (a) to operate ▇▇▇▇▇ producing Dedicated Gas as a reasonably prudent operator in its sole discretion, including the right, but never the obligation, to drill new ▇▇▇▇▇, to repair and rework old ▇▇▇▇▇, to renew or extend, in whole or in part, any Interest covering any of the Dedicated Interests, and to cease production from or to plug and abandon any Well or surrender, release, amend or modify, or terminate any of the Interests, other than for the sole purpose of circumventing Producer’s commitments under this Agreement; (b) to use Dedicated Gas for operations (including reservoir pressure maintenance and drilling or hydraulic fracturing fuel); (c) to deliver or furnish to lessors and holders of other existing similar burdens on production such Gas as is required to satisfy the terms of the applicable leases or other applicable instruments; (d) to acquire Interests subject to Conflicting Dedications and to continue to deliver to such gathering systems Gas produced from such ▇▇▇▇▇ subject to the restrictions on Conflicting Dedications set forth in Section 2.2; (e) to pool, communitize, or unitize the Dedicated Interests, provided that the Dedicated Gas produced from such Dedicated Interests shall be committed and dedicated to, and subject to the terms of, this Agreement; (f) to use Dedicated Gas to comply with any terms or conditions set forth in any of the applicable leases or other applicable instruments related to a third party’s right to take delivery of such Dedicated Gas “in-kind” but only for the period that Producer has such obligation; (g) to flare or vent any Dedicated Gas, acting as a reasonably prudent operator; (h) to install any wellhead compression; (i) to retain for its sole ownership and unrestricted use any and all wellhead condensate produced from the Dedicated Interests; (j) to deliver Dedicated Gas that has been temporarily released from Dedication hereunder as it may determine; and (k) all lessor royalty

interests and fee mineral reversionary interests (including any royalty interests or reversionary interests resulting from Producer leasing any dedicated fee minerals to an Affiliate of Producer after the Effective Date); provided, however, that Producer shall not enter into any lease back or sale transaction (or series of related transactions) with the intent of circumventing the Dedication.

Section 2.4 Covenant Running with the Land. In furtherance of, and as an inseparable part of, the foregoing Dedication, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Producer Group GRANTS, COMMITS, DEDICATES, TRANSFERS AND CONVEYS to Gatherer, from and out of Producer Group’s Interests, an interest in the Gas in and under the Dedication Area, represented by the exclusive right to gather, and transport Producer Group’s Dedicated Gas for the term of this Agreement (collectively, “Gathering Rights”), which Gathering Rights shall burden the Interests and the Dedicated Gas in place under the Dedication Area and constitute real property interests that run with the land. Producer acknowledges and agrees that the Dedication, the Dedicated Interests and the Gathering Rights are intended to (i) be covenants running with the lands, including the Interests and the Dedicated Gas, located within the Dedication Area, (ii) be binding on all successors and assigns of Producer Group, (iii) be for the benefit of Gatherer and, without which, Gatherer would be unwilling to acquire rights-of-way or easements or undertake the obligations under this Agreement (which, in each case, touch and concern the acreage and the Interests within the Dedication Area), and (iv) survive any bankruptcy or insolvency of any entity in the Producer Group. Producer represents and warrants to Gatherer that Producer has the authority to make the Dedication and the conveyance of the Gathering Rights subject to, and in accordance with, this Agreement from and out of Producer Group’s Interests, and that, except as provided in this Agreement, Gatherer will be the exclusive provider of gathering services for the Dedicated Interests. It is the intention of the Parties that such grant, commitment, dedication, transfer, and conveyance under this Section 2.4 and all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall constitute a conveyance of a real property interest to Gatherer and that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, such grant, commitment, dedication, transfer, and conveyance and all of the terms and provision of this Agreement shall not be subject to rejection under Section 365 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”).

Section 2.5 Acreage Swaps; Transfers Free from the Dedication.

(a)Producer Group shall be permitted to Transfer net acres of the Dedicated Interests free of the Dedication hereunder up to the Unrestricted Amount; provided, however, that Producer Group may not Transfer any Dedicated Interests free from the Dedication without Gatherer’s consent if Dedicated Gas is produced from any Well that is located on a Well Pad on which other ▇▇▇▇▇ are, are in the process of, or have been connected to the Gathering System (whether producing, shut-in, temporarily abandoned or which has been spud or as to which drilling, completion, reworking or other well operations have commenced) or for which a Connection Notice has previously been delivered by Producer for any Well on such Well Pad. Producer shall provide quarterly informational notices to Gatherer setting forth the total net acreage of Dedicated Interests Transferred pursuant to this Section 2.5(a).

(b)Producer may enter into an acreage trade or swap without Gatherer’s consent incorporating the Dedicated Interests, provided (A) that the acreage to be Transferred to a third party must not include any Dedicated Interests associated with any Well that is located on a Well Pad on which other ▇▇▇▇▇ are, are in the process of, or have been connected to the Gathering System (whether producing, shut-in, temporarily abandoned or which has been spud or as to which drilling, completion, reworking or other well operations have commenced) or for which a Connection Notice has previously been delivered by Producer for any Well on such Well Pad and (B) the acquired acreage must (i) be similar in quantity on a net acres basis, (ii) be undeveloped, and (iii) present economic prospects to Gatherer for the construction and operation of facilities required to provide Services which are not materially less favorable in the aggregate to Gatherer, in each case, as mutually agreed by Gatherer and Producer, provided, that if the Parties are unable to reach a mutual agreement, then, at Producer’s sole cost and expense (unless the expert ultimately determines in writing that Gatherer unreasonably withheld consent), the criteria set forth above shall be subject to the determination of a mutually agreed, nationally-recognized oil and gas auditor or other technical expert experienced in the oil and gas industry. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the proposed acreage swap or trade does not meet the requirements of this Section 2.5(b), then Producer may nonetheless complete such acreage swap or trade (or noncompliant portion of such acreage swap or trade) in accordance with Section 2.5(b) and any such acquired acreage not meeting the requirements hereunder shall count towards the acreage cap in Section 2.5(a). Producer shall provide written Notice to Gatherer of each proposed acreage swap, along with information reasonably necessary to enable Gatherer to determine whether the proposed acreage swap complies with the provisions of this Section 2.5(b) and shall further promptly provide Gatherer with any and all information Gatherer reasonably requests; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 18.6 shall apply to any such information that Producer provides to Gatherer. Gatherer shall affirmatively elect to provide or withhold its consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld) within [***] Days of receipt of such proposal. In the event Gatherer does not provide timely consent, Gatherer shall be deemed to have given its consent to the proposed acreage swap or trade.

(c)Except as set forth in this Section 2.5, any transfer of Dedicated Interests shall be governed by Section 18.4.

Section 2.6 Covenant to Provide Dedicated Interests.

(a)The Parties acknowledge and agree that Exhibit A sets forth a map of Producer’s Interests that are dedicated hereunder as of the Effective Date. The map set forth on Exhibit A shall be sufficient to be recorded in all counties required to give effect to the Dedication. If for any reason such map is found to be insufficient, then Producer shall promptly, but in any event within 5 Business Days, provide an updated map to replace Exhibit A and all necessary information that will be sufficient to effect recording in the applicable county records.

(b)Notwithstanding the forgoing, not later than [***] for the portion of the Dedicated Area within West Virginia and [***] for the portion of the Dedicated Area within Pennsylvania, Producer shall provide Gatherer with a list of each of Producer’s Interests that are Dedicated hereunder. [***]. Subject to the exceptions set forth in this Section 2.6(b), the provisions of Section 18.6 shall apply to any such list that Producer provides to Gatherer pursuant to this Section 2.6(b).

Section 2.7 Priority of Dedicated Gas. Producer shall receive Firm Service for all Gas delivered at the Receipt Points on any Day up to the MDQ. Gas delivered by or for the account of Producer at the Receipt Points on any Day in excess of the MDQ applicable on such Day shall receive Interruptible Service.

All Development Plans made available to the Parties under this Section 3.2 will remain confidential in accordance with Section 18.6.

Section 3.3 Expansion of Gathering System; Connection of ▇▇▇▇▇; Delivery Points.

(a)New Receipt Points within the Applicable Area. If, at any time following the Effective Date and during the term hereof, Producer desires Gatherer to construct pipelines and facilities to establish any additional new Receipt Point(s) within the Applicable Area that was not subject to a Conflicting Dedication (“Additional Receipt Points”), Producer will deliver to Gatherer written notice (“Additional Connection Notice”) not less than 24 Months prior to the Anticipated Production Date.

(i) The Additional Connection Notice will include the name and planned location of the new Receipt Point, the Anticipated Production Date, the required delivery pressure, the required Delivery Point(s), Producer’s applicable working interest in the planned ▇▇▇▇▇, the operator, target formation and depth, minimum lateral length, and depth of the planned ▇▇▇▇▇, the numbers of ▇▇▇▇▇ to be connected (if connecting to a Well Pad), the number of existing ▇▇▇▇▇, Producer’s twenty-four (24) Month rolling production forecast for the new Receipt Point, the availability of space on the Well Pad for the installation of the applicable Receipt Point and dehydration facilities, and any other information that Gatherer reasonably requests in association with such Additional Receipt Point (collectively, “Connection Notice Information”), provided Gatherer acknowledges that the Connection Notice Information shall be based upon Producer’s reasonable and good faith forecast, which forecast is subject to change in Producer’s sole discretion for which Producer shall have no liability except as expressly set forth hereunder. The Parties shall coordinate and reasonably cooperate with respect to the design, route and size of the facilities (including pipe diameter and dehydration equipment) taking into account Producer’s volume forecasts and required delivery pressure.

(ii) If the Connection Notice Information provided with respect to any Connection Notice meets the Additional Connection Criteria for the ▇▇▇▇▇ to be connected to the proposed Receipt Point, Gatherer will complete construction of all facilities for and establish the Additional Receipt Point(s), at Gatherer’s sole cost and expense, provided however, Gatherer may elect to complete any Additional Receipt Point regardless of whether the Connection Notice Information provided with respect to any Connection Notice meets the Additional Connection Criteria in its sole discretion.

(iii) With respect to Additional Receipt Points that Gatherer elects to connect to or is required to connect to hereunder, not later than 270 Days prior to the Anticipated Production Date set forth in each Additional Connection Notice (the “Additional Confirmation Date”), Producer will deliver a notice to Gatherer either confirming the Additional Connection Notice or cancelling the Additional Connection Notice (a “Additional Confirmation Notice”). Each Additional Confirmation Notice confirming an Additional Connection Notice will contain Producer’s good faith update, if any, to the applicable Connection Notice Information, including (subject to Section 3.3(a)(iv)) the Anticipated Production Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 3.3(a)(iii), in the event Producer fails to deliver the Additional Confirmation Notice on or before 270 Days prior to the Anticipated Production Date set forth in an Additional Connection Notice, the Anticipated Production Date for such Additional Receipt Point will be extended on a day-for-day basis until Producer issues the Additional Confirmation Notice to Gatherer.

(iv) Additionally, in the event Producer modifies any of the information provided in the Connection Notice Information such that the Additional Connection Notice would not meet the Additional Connection Criteria or, following delivery of an Additional Connection Notice, changes to the location of the Additional Receipt Point such that it is no longer located within the LOD, then Gatherer shall have no further obligation to construct such Additional Receipt Point, subject to Section 3.3(d), and if Producer then elects not to make the connection as provided in Section 3.3(d)(iii)(B), Producer shall reimburse Gatherer in accordance with Section 3.3(f).

(b)Extended Receipt Points Outside the Applicable Area. If, at any time following the Effective Date and during the term hereof, Producer desires Gatherer to construct pipelines and facilities to establish any additional new Receipt Point(s) within the Dedicated Area but outside the Applicable Area and that was not subject to a Conflicting Dedication (“Extended Receipt Points”), Producer will deliver to Gatherer written notice (“Extended Connection Notice”) not less than 30 Months prior to the Anticipated Production Date.

(i) [***].

(ii) [***].

(iii) [***].

(c)Modified New Receipt Points. If, at any time following the Effective Date and during the term hereof, Producer desires Gatherer to construct pipelines and facilities to establish any additional new Receipt Point(s) within the Dedicated Area but outside the Applicable Area, then in the event that the Connection Notice Information provided with respect to any Connection Notice meets the Additional Well Criteria, but does not meet the Extended Connection Criteria (each such instance, a “Modified Connection Notice”, and the applicable Receipt Point a “Modified Receipt Point”), the following shall apply:

(i) The Modified Connection Notice will include the Connection Notice Information; provided Gatherer acknowledges that the Connection Notice Information shall be based upon Producer’s reasonable and good faith forecast.

(ii) [***].

(iii) [***].

(iv) [***].

(v) [***].

(vi) If Producer elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to make the connection as provided in Section 3.3(c)(iv)(B) above, the affected ▇▇▇▇▇ (and the portions of the Interests located within the geographic confines of the producing unit(s) ascribed to such ▇▇▇▇▇) will be permanently released from the Dedication.

(vii) For the avoidance of doubt, any connection made pursuant to Section 3.3(c) shall, upon the Completion Deadline for the applicable Modified Receipt Point, be considered part of the Gathering System for all purposes hereunder; provided that the Anticipated Production Date for any Modified Receipt Point shall not be earlier than 30 months following the later of the date that Gatherer receives notice from Producer that Producer either (A) elects to have Gatherer make the requested connection to the Gathering System as provided in Section 3.3(c)(iii) above or (B) accepts Gatherer’s proposal made pursuant to Section 3.3(c)(i).

(d)Optional New Receipt Points. In the event that the Connection Notice Information provided with respect to any Connection Notice for a Receipt Point (provided such Receipt Point is located within the Dedication Area) does not meet the Additional Connection Criteria or the Extended Connection Criteria, as applicable, or in the event that Producer modifies any of the information provided in a Connection Notice Information pursuant to an Extended Confirmation Notice or Additional Confirmation Notice such that the Connection Notice would not meet the Additional Connection Criteria or the Extended Connection Criteria, as applicable (excluding in all circumstances changes to the location of the applicable Receipt Point such that it is no longer located within the LOD) (each such instance, an “Optional Connection Notice”, and the applicable Receipt Point, an “Optional Receipt Point”), the following shall apply:

(i) Within thirty (30) Days from receipt of an Optional Connection Notice, Gatherer may provide Producer with written notice of the terms and conditions, including fees, increases to Minimum Volume Commitments, Anticipated Production Date, compression requirements, or capital costs required to construct the Extended Receipt Point. If Gatherer does not respond to an Optional Connection Notice within the applicable thirty (30)-Day period under this Section 3.3(d), then Gatherer will be deemed to have elected not to make the requested connection.

(ii) If Gatherer delivers the notice referred to in Section 3.3(d)(i), Producer may, within 15 Days of receiving such proposal, by notice to Gatherer, either accept Gatherer’s proposed terms or reject Gatherer’s proposed terms and the Parties shall amend this Agreement to give effect to such proposal. In the event Producer does not respond within such 15-Day period, Producer will be deemed to have rejected such proposal.

(iii) [***].

(iv) [***].

(v) [***].

(vi) For the avoidance of doubt, any connection made pursuant to Section 3.3(d) shall, upon the Completion Deadline for the applicable Optional Receipt Point, be considered part of the Gathering System for all purposes hereunder.

(vii) The Anticipated Production Date for any Optional Receipt Point that is an Extended Receipt Point shall not be earlier than 12 months following the later of the date that Gatherer receives notice from Producer that Producer either (A) elects to have Gatherer make the requested connection to the Gathering System as provided in subpart Section 3.3(d)(iii)(A) above or (B) accepts Gatherer’s proposal made pursuant to Section 3.3(d)(i).

(viii) The Anticipated Production Date for any Optional Receipt Point that is an Additional Receipt Point shall not be earlier than 270 Days following the later of the date that Gatherer receives notice from Producer that Producer either (A) elects to have Gatherer make the requested connection to the Gathering System as provided in section Section 3.3(d)(iii)(A) above or (B) accepts Gatherer’s proposal made pursuant to Section 3.3(d)(i).

(e)Gatherer’s Failure to Meet Completion Deadline. If Gatherer is not ready and able to provide service at an (i) Additional Receipt Point or (ii) Extended Receipt Point on or before the later of (A) the Anticipated Production Date as extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (B) the actual completion date of the applicable Well(s) that in the aggregate deliver volumes substantially similar to those forecast in the applicable Additional Confirmation Notice or Extended Connection Notice (the “Completion Deadline”) then, except to the extent such delay is caused or contributed to by an event of Force Majeure or the actions or inactions of Producer Group, Producer shall be entitled to the applicable remedies set forth on Exhibit Q and, during each Month (or partial Month) in which the connection is delayed, the Minimum Volume Commitment will be reduced on a Dth for Dth basis by the Monthly average of Producer’s good faith forecast volumes of Dedicated Gas produced from the ▇▇▇▇▇ intended to be serviced by the delayed Additional Receipt Point or Extended Receipt Point, provided that such reduction to the Minimum Volume Commitment shall be subject to a Monthly true-up whereby, if the actual volumes delivered for such Month are less than the forecast volumes for such Month, the difference between (i) the reduction in the Minimum Volume Commitment that was applied based on the forecast volumes and (ii) the reduction that would have been applied had the forecast been accurate, shall be added to the Minimum Volume Commitment.

(f)Producer Reimbursement Obligations. In the event that a Receipt Point that is the subject of an Additional Confirmation Notice or an Extended Confirmation Notice fails to meet, by [***] Months following the Anticipated Production Date, the Additional Connection Criteria or Extended Connection Criteria, as applicable, then Producer shall reimburse Gatherer for all actual, documented costs and expenses associated with the applicable Receipt Point plus an additional [***]%. In the event that, prior to the expiration of the [***] Month-period following the Anticipated Production Date, the applicable Receipt Point subsequently meets the Additional Connection Criteria or Extended Connection Criteria, as applicable, then Producer shall be entitled to a [***]% reduction in the Reservation Fee (or, if applicable, the Overrun Fee) with respect to all volumes of Dedicated Gas received at such Receipt Point until the total amount of such reduction in the Reservation Fee (or, if applicable, the Overrun Fee) equals the total amount of such reimbursed costs and expenses (including the additional [***]% amount).

(g)Producer Facilities. Producer, at its own expense, shall complete or direct the completion of the design, construction, installation, operation and maintenance of all necessary facilities upstream of the Receipt Points needed to effectuate delivery of Producer’s Dedicated Gas into the Gathering System in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 3.4 Determination of MDQ and MRDO. The MDQ for each System AMI and MRDO for each corresponding Delivery Point from the Effective Date until December 31, 2020 shall be as set forth in Exhibit C, and with respect to each Year thereafter shall be adjusted in accordance with the following process:

(a)The MDQ for each System AMI shall be adjusted each January 1 commencing January 1, 2022 (each such January 1, a “MDQ Determination Date”), based on the summation of: (i) [***]% of all the average daily quantities of Dedicated Gas received from Producer from High Pressure Receipt Points and Low Pressure Receipt Points in the prior 6 Month period in such System AMI and (ii) the good faith forecasted peak quantity of new Dedicated Gas anticipated in the following [***] Months based upon Additional and Extended Connection Notices and the latest Development Plan which in each case shall utilize the best available information in such System AMI; provided, however, that any adjustment to the Low Pressure MDQ shall be limited by the corresponding System Compressor Station(s) and the Max MDQ for each System AMI and provided further that nothing herein shall obligate Gatherer to add compression capacity except as set forth in Section 3.5. Gatherer reserves the right in its sole discretion to increase the Max MDQ and/or Low Pressure MDQ for any System AMI. The summation of all System AMI MDQs shall never be less than an amount equal to [***]% of the Minimum Volume Commitment. Gatherer shall provide written notice of the revised MDQ for each System AMI within [***] Days of the MDQ Determination Date.

(b)Adjustments in each System AMI MDQ calculated above shall result in equal adjustments to the MRDO for each corresponding Delivery Point in the System AMI as desired by Producer up to the Max MRDO for each Delivery Point. Producer shall be entitled to allocate the incremental adjusted capacity of the MDQ for each System AMI among such System AMI’s Delivery Points up to the MRDO for each such Delivery Point. In addition Producer shall not be entitled to reduce any Delivery Point MRDO below the minimum flow rates specified by the Downstream Pipeline related to each Delivery Point. Producer shall make such MRDO allocation selections by no later than [***] Days following receipt of written notice from Gatherer with respect to the adjusted System AMI MDQs. In the event Gatherer requires expansion of any Delivery Point to accommodate an increase in MRDO, Gatherer shall work in good faith to expand such capacity quickly and Producer shall not be entitled to such increase in MRDO until such expansion is complete.

(c)Gatherer shall revise Exhibit C to reflect any adjustments pursuant to this Section 3.4, and shall provide the same to Producer within [***] Days following the final determination of any such adjustments, including the final as-built capacity of a Delivery Point that has been expanded to accommodate a revised MRDO.

Section 3.5 Incremental Compression.

(a)Exhibit C describes the centralized compression and dehydration facilities in place or contemplated as of the Effective Date to compress and dehydrate Dedicated Gas upstream of any suction facility to permit Dedicated Gas to enter such Downstream Pipelines or High Pressure gathering pipelines (“System Compressor Stations”). Gatherer shall operate and maintain each System Compressor Station to provide capacity for Dedicated Gas up to the Low Pressure MDQ of each System Compressor Station and, with respect to each System AMI, not less than the total compression capacity set forth on Exhibit C as of the Effective Date for such System AMI. For the avoidance of doubt, Gatherer shall have the right (at its sole cost and without additional charge to Producer) at any time to add additional compression to a Gathering System as it deems necessary or appropriate to provide services in respect of Third Party Gas in addition to the capacity reflected in Exhibit C. Producer shall be entitled to the full capacity reflected at various suction pressures as detailed in Exhibit C at each System Compressor Station. Gatherer has no obligation to incur material expense if a System AMI, as of the Effective Date, is not designed and capable of transitioning High Pressure Receipt Points to Low Pressure.

(b)In the event Producer desires to increase the Low Pressure MDQ for any System AMI or System Compressor Station, Gatherer shall install incremental compression in the amounts and in the locations set forth on Exhibit P (“Incremental Compression”). If Producer desires additional Low Pressure MDQ via connection of a new Low Pressure Delivery Point, Parties shall utilize the process detailed in Exhibit P, which shall include a corresponding increase to the Fuel Cap.

Section 3.6 Dehydration Service. Except for High Pressure Receipt Points and those certain Receipt Points set forth on Exhibit L, Gatherer shall have the obligation at Gatherer’s sole cost and expense to install dehydration at all other Receipt Points at a location determined by Gatherer, which may include at Gatherer’s receipt facilities on Producer’s Well Pad. Producer shall be responsible for providing conforming Gas for all Receipt Points identified in Exhibit L until Gatherer may transition such High Pressure Receipt Point to Low Pressure.

Section 3.7 Minimum Volume Commitment.

(a)During each Contract Year Producer commits to deliver to the Receipt Points a minimum daily volume of Producer Group’s Dedicated Gas averaged over each Month equal to the minimum volume commitment set forth in Exhibit H and subject to adjustment (as applicable) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Minimum Volume Commitment”); provided that volumes of Gas delivered into the Gathering System by Producer Group from the area outside the Dedication Area but described on Exhibit I shall also be counted towards the Minimum Volume Commitment.

(b)In the event of a Temporary Release (excluding (i) events of Force Majeure in connection with a failure of a Third Party Downstream Pipeline and (ii) failure of any Affiliated Downstream Pipeline that is caused or contributed to by a Third Party Downstream Pipeline), the Minimum Volume Commitment shall be reduced on an Dth-for-Dth basis by the volumes of Dedicated Gas that would have been received into the Gathering System (as calculated based on the daily average volumes produced from Producer’s Well during the 30 Day period prior to the event triggering the Temporary Release (excluding (i) events of Force Majeure in connection with a failure of a Third Party Downstream Pipeline and (ii) failure of any Affiliated Downstream Pipeline that is caused or contributed to by a Third Party Downstream Pipeline) but for such Temporary Release.

(c)In the event of any permanent release pursuant to Section 3.9, the Minimum Volume Commitment for each Month thereafter shall be permanently reduced on an Dth-for-Dth basis by the volumes of Dedicated Gas that Producer produces at the affected ▇▇▇▇▇ and that would have been received into the Gathering System (as calculated based on the daily average volumes produced from Producer’s Well during the 3 Month period prior to the event triggering the permanent release) but for such permanent release.

Section 3.8 Temporary Release. [***].

Section 3.9 Permanent Release.

(a)[***].

(b)If any failure of Gatherer to receive all Dedicated Gas up to the MDQ lasts beyond the time periods required to accrue as set forth in subsection (a) but Gatherer is nonetheless able to resume accepting the affected volumes prior to Producer requesting a permanent release, Producer shall not be entitled to any permanent release pursuant to this Section 3.9.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the right to specifically enforce Gatherer’s obligation to provide Firm Services in accordance with Section 2.7 and Section 7.3, (ii) the releases described in Section 3.8 and this Section 3.9, (iii) the applicable Producer remedies described on Exhibit Q, (iv) reductions to the Minimum Volume Commitment described in Section 3.3 and Section 3.7, shall, as applicable, be the sole and exclusive remedy provided to Producer for (a) any inability or failure of Gatherer to accept any volumes of Dedicated Gas, (b) Maintenance, (c) Gatherer’s failure to meet the Completion Deadline, and (d) Overpressure Events.

Section 3.10 Gas Buyback. Gatherer shall accommodate, at Producer’s sole cost and expense (except to the extent facilities and costs are to be the sole responsibility of Gatherer in connection with the construction of an Additional Receipt Point or an Extended Receipt Point pursuant to an Additional Connection Notice or Extended Connection Notice under Section 3.3), any written request by Producer contained in a Connection Notice to redeliver to Producer at a new Delivery Point (each, a “Redelivery Point”) any Gas that has been delivered into the Gathering System by Producer Group that Producer desires to use in lease operations, including for drilling and hydraulic fracturing of ▇▇▇▇▇ located within the Dedication Area (such Gas, the “Buyback Gas”). Producer shall be responsible for the construction, ownership and operation, and all costs and expenses associated therewith, of the Measurement Facilities necessary to receive such Gas at any such Redelivery Point and to measure the quantity and composition of such Gas, and for transporting such Gas from such Redelivery Point to the locations where such Gas will be used. Gatherer shall be ready, willing and able to commence service at and to such Redelivery Point as soon as reasonably practicable following its receipt of a Redelivery Request. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, Gatherer shall not be obligated to use any portion of the Gathering System for the redelivery of Buyback Gas to the extent use of the Gathering System for such purpose would impede or prevent Gatherer from using the Gathering System to provide water related services on any portion of the Gathering System.

Section 3.11 Right of Way and Access.

(a)Gatherer is responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for the acquisition of all rights of way, crossing permits, licenses, use agreements, access agreements, leases, fee parcels, and other rights in land right necessary to construct, own, and operate each Gathering System, and all such rights in land shall be solely for use by Gatherer and shall not be shared with Producer, except as otherwise agreed by Gatherer. If after using its reasonable best efforts to acquire its own surface rights, Gatherer has been unable to do so with respect to any portion of the lands covered by the Dedicated Interests, then upon written request from Gatherer, Producer shall GRANT, TRANSFER, AND CONVEY and/or to cause each Affiliate to GRANT, TRANSFER, AND CONVEY, without warranty of title, either express or implied, to the extent that it may contractually and lawfully do so without the incurrence of out-of-pocket expense that Gatherer does not agree to reimburse, an easement and right of way in a recordable form mutually agreed by the Parties upon such portions of the lands covered by the Dedicated Interests, for the purpose of installing, using, maintaining, servicing, inspecting, repairing, operating, replacing, disconnecting, and removing all or any portion of the Gathering System, including all pipelines, meters, and other equipment necessary for the performance of this Agreement; provided, that the exercise of these rights by Gatherer will be limited to any surface use agreements, rights-of-way, easements, fee interests or other surface interests (excluding rights granted pursuant to oil, gas or mineral lease) procured or held by Producer or its Affiliates, shall not unreasonably interfere with Producer’s or such Affiliate’s lease operations or with the rights of owners in fee, and will be subject to Producer’s safety and other access requirements applicable to Producer’s personnel, its contractors and subcontractors and any and all applicable law and the contractual terms of Producer’s agreements with the applicable land and surface owners. Neither Producer nor such Affiliate shall have a duty to maintain the underlying agreements (such as leases, easements, and surface use agreements) that such grant, transfer, and conveyance of easement or right of way to Gatherer is based upon, and such grants, transfers, and conveyances of easement or right of way will terminate if Producer or such Affiliate, as applicable, loses its rights to the property, regardless of the reason for such loss of rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Producer will assist Gatherer to secure replacements for such terminated grants, transfers, and conveyances of easement or right of way, in a manner consistent with the cooperation requirements of Section 3.13, (ii) to the extent that Producer agrees that Gatherer’s Measurement Facilities may be located on Producer’s Well Pad sites, Producer shall be responsible for obtaining any necessary rights to locate such Measurement Facilities on such Well Pad sites, and (iii) Producer shall use reasonable efforts to involve Gatherer in Producer’s negotiations with the owners of lands covered by the Dedicated Interests so that Producer’s surface use agreements and Gatherer’s rights of way with respect to such lands can be concurrently negotiated and obtained. Producer shall provide Gatherer with copies of all such real property documents and accompanying survey plats and shall make all conveyances or assignments to Gatherer and take all further actions reasonably necessary, at Gatherer’s request, to determine, evidence and give effect to the rights granted, transferred, and conveyed to Gatherer by Producer under this Section 3.11.

(b)Gatherer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Producer from and against any and all third party claims attributable to, arising out of or relating to such rights granted pursuant to this Section 3.11, provided, however, that Gatherer shall only be liable hereunder to the extent such claims are caused in whole or in part by the negligence, gross negligence, or willful misconduct or any breach of any applicable surface use agreement, right-of-way, easement or other applicable instrument, in each case, by Gatherer or its Affiliates or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, representatives, and invitees. Any property of Gatherer placed on any such real property interests of Producer or other Persons referenced in this Section 3.11 will remain the personal property of Gatherer, may be disconnected and removed by Gatherer at any time for any reason subject to this Agreement, and will be disconnected and removed by Gatherer, at its expense, upon the requirement of any such other Persons or upon termination of this Agreement unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Producer.

(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all rights granted by Producer to Gatherer under this Section 3.11 shall automatically terminate upon the removal of the Gathering System and be of no further force and effect. Upon such termination, Gatherer shall, or shall cause, at its sole cost and expense and without any cost or expense to Producer or any of its Affiliates (i) within 180 Days of termination of this Agreement, to be extended Day-for-Day by any event of Force Majeure or the fault of Producer Group, restore the applicable properties to the approximate same condition as, or better condition than, they were prior to Gatherer’s exercising of the rights granted under this Section 3.11, and (ii), if applicable, remove or abandon the Gathering System in accordance with applicable law.

Section 3.12 Space on Well Pad. To the extent available without interfering with Producer’s facilities or operations, which shall be determined in the reasonable discretion of Producer, Producer shall provide Gatherer with reasonably sufficient space on each Well Pad to install applicable Receipt Point and dehydration facilities, and the Parties shall coordinate construction efforts to locate the Receipt Point on the applicable Well Pad.

Section 3.13 Cooperation. Because of the interrelated nature of the actions of Producer and Gatherer required to obtain the necessary permits and authorizations from the appropriate Governmental Authorities and the necessary consents, rights of way and other authorizations from other Persons necessary to drill and complete each Well and construct the required extensions of the Gathering System to each Receipt Point, Producer and Gatherer agree to work together in good faith to obtain such permits, authorizations, consents and rights of way as expeditiously as reasonably practicable, all as provided herein. Producer and Gatherer further agree to cooperate with each other and to communicate regularly regarding their efforts to obtain such permits, authorizations, consents and rights of way.

Section 3.14 Cost-In-Aid. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Producer’s payments to Gatherer pursuant to Section 3.3 and any payments related to construction, maintenance or repair of the Gathering System shall, in each case, constitute cost-in-aid of construction payments and that Producer shall have no ownership of, or other interest in, any of the facilities for which Producer is providing that payment.

Such adjustment shall be made effective upon the first Day of each Contract Year commencing in the Contract Year beginning in 2021, and shall reflect the percentage change in the CPI as it existed for June of the preceding Contract Year from the CPI for the second immediately preceding June; provided, however, that the Reservation Fee, Overrun Fee, Pipeline Drip Handling Fee and the Incremental Compression Fee shall never be increased or decreased by more than [***]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, The Reservation Fee, Overrun Fee, Pipeline Drip Handling Fee, and the Incremental Compression Fee shall not be adjusted pursuant to any downwards change in the CPI below each such fee as of the Effective Date.

Section 5.3 Fee Credit. Producer shall be entitled to a fee credit for each Dth of Dedicated Gas for which Services are provided under this Agreement and which is delivered for transportation under the FTS Agreements. For each FTS Credit Delivery Point set forth on Exhibit C, Producer shall receive a credit, to be set forth on the invoice delivered pursuant to Section 13.1, equal to the amount of fees actually paid (including any reservation fees, overrun fees or other amounts paid) under the FTS Agreements for transportation services afforded to the Dedicated Gas (as defined herein), and only the Dedicated Gas delivered to such FTS Credit Delivery Point pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 5.4 Credit Support. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the Effective Date, Producer meets the Minimum Credit Standard. For so long as Producer satisfies the Minimum Credit Standard during the term hereof, Producer shall not be obligated to post or issue, or cause to be posted or issued, any Credit Support. If, at any time after the Effective Date, Producer fails to satisfy the Minimum Credit Standard (the “Downgrade”) Producer shall promptly notify Gatherer in writing of the occurrence of the Downgrade and shall deliver Credit Support in an amount equal to the Credit Support Amount within [***] Business Days of the Downgrade. Any such Credit Support provided by Producer shall be maintained in full force and effect through a period ending as of the earlier of (a) the date that Producer satisfies the Minimum Credit Standard and (b) [***] Days after the expiration of the term hereof. Prior to the Effective Date and at such other times as Gatherer may reasonably request, Producer shall provide Gatherer with documentation demonstrating its creditworthiness to the reasonable satisfaction of Gatherer. For purposes of this Section 5.4, “Credit Support” means one or more irrevocable, transferable standby letter of credit in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Gatherer, issued by a commercial bank or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, with (i) a credit rating of at least (A) “A-” by S&P or (B) “A3” by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ and (ii) having a net worth of at least $2,500,000,000 at the time of issuance of a letter of credit, the costs of which shall be borne by Producer.

ARTICLE 6

ALLOCATIONS

Section 6.1 Allocation of Lost and Unaccounted For Gas. Lost and Unaccounted For Gas shall be allocated, on a Monthly basis, among all Receipt Points on each System AMI pro rata based upon the Thermal Content of all Gas received at all Receipt Points on such System AMI during such Month. Total Lost and Unaccounted For Gas with respect to each System AMI shall be determined by subtracting from the sum of the total Thermal Content of Gas received at all Receipt Points on such System AMI during such Month the sum of (a) the Thermal Content of Gas actually delivered to all Delivery Points on such System AMI during such Month, (b) the Thermal Content of Pipeline Drip recovered from such System AMI during such Month (other than Pipeline Drip vaporized and reinjected into the Gas stream), and (c) the Thermal Content of Gas used for Fuel on such System AMI, if any, during such Month, provided, however, that the Monthly total of Lost and Unaccounted For Gas with respect to each System AMI shall not exceed the amounts set forth in Exhibit C, as may be updated annually by mutual agreement of the Parties (each acting reasonably and in good faith) in order to account for new compression facilities, in each case on such System AMI during such Month. Lost and Unaccounted For Gas shall be allocated, on a Monthly basis, to each Receipt Point based upon a fraction, the numerator of which is the total Thermal Content of Gas measured at such Receipt Point during such Month, and the denominator of which is the total Thermal Content of Gas measured at all Receipt Points on the System AMI on which such Receipt Point is located during such Month.

Section 6.2 Allocation of Fuel and Electric Power.

(a)Fuel, on a Monthly basis, for each System AMI, shall be allocated to Producer pro rata based on the total volume of all Gas received at Producer’s applicable Receipt Points during such Month and the total volume of Gas measured at all Receipt Points on each System AMI; provided, however, that the total amount of Fuel charged or allocated to Producer shall be determined on a System AMI-by-System AMI basis (which shall be determined based on actual measurements of Fuel consumption) in accordance with the target allocations set forth on Exhibit C (such target allocations, the “Fuel Cap”). The Fuel Cap shall be adjusted each January 1, commencing January 1, 2021 based on [***]% of the anticipated requirements of the Gathering System operations, including the operations of System Compressor Stations and any Incremental Compression, for the following Contract Year (however, it shall never be less than the preceding Contract Year).

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Producer does not deliver sufficient Gas such that any System Compressor Station or Incremental Compression is unable to be operated with standard efficiency, the Fuel Cap shall not apply to the affected System Compressor Station and Incremental Compression.

(c)Electric Power, on a Monthly basis, for each System AMI, shall be allocated to Producer pro rata based on the total volume of all Gas received at Producer’s applicable Receipt Points during such Month and will not be subject to a cap.

Section 6.3 Line Fill. To the extent that it is necessary in order for Gatherer to commence operations of new segments of the Gathering System or due to Maintenance or repairs, Producer shall provide its proportionate share of such line purge and fill Gas to Gatherer in an amount determined by Gatherer in Gatherer’s reasonable discretion and at Producer’s sole cost and expense.

Section 6.4 Allocation of Pipeline Drip Recovered From Each Rich Gas Gathering System. Gatherer will recover Pipeline Drip from each Rich Gas Gathering System as defined in Exhibit C and Gatherer shall be responsible for marketing and/or disposing of Producer’s Pipeline Drip recovered from each Rich Gas Gathering System under arms-length sales transactions. Gatherer shall remit to Producer for such Pipeline Drip 100% of the product recovered of the Net Sales Price multiplied by the volume of Producer’s Pipeline Drip sold by Gatherer, or if the cost of marketing and/or disposing of Producer’s Pipeline Drip exceeds the amount received therefor, then Producer shall pay Gatherer the difference between the cost of marketing and/or disposing of the Pipeline Drip and the Net Sales Price of the Pipeline Drip. Gatherer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to market and sell the Pipeline Drip under the most favorable terms (including price) that Gatherer can reasonably obtain, and Gatherer is obligated to accept the bid for Pipeline Drip that results in the highest net price for its shippers. As used herein, the “Net Sales Price” of Pipeline Drip attributable to Producer’s Gas shall be the weighted average of the net price per Gallon received by Gatherer, excluding any sales to Affiliates of Gatherer not transacted on an arms-length basis, for the total volume of Pipeline Drip sold at or from each Rich Gas Gathering System during the applicable Month. For purposes of this calculation, the net price per Gallon received by Gatherer for Pipeline Drip shall be determined by deducting from the actual gross sales revenue of Pipeline Drip sold at or from the Gathering System during the Month the Pipeline Drip Handling Fee, the direct costs of transportation, tank car rentals, taxes (including gross receipts taxes), offsite storage, water disposal, marketing and any other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Gatherer or its Affiliates from third parties who are not Affiliates of Gatherer (unless such Affiliate expenses are approved by Producer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) prior to or in direct connection with the sale of such Pipeline Drip, and dividing by the volume of Pipeline Drip sold to determine a net price per Gallon (FOB or netted back to the Gathering System). Pipeline Drip shall be allocated to each Receipt Point upstream of the applicable Pipeline Drip recovery point by multiplying the volume (expressed in Gallons) of Pipeline Drip recovered at the applicable Pipeline Drip recovery point by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Theoretical Volume of Pipeline Drip attributable to such Receipt Point and the denominator of which is the Theoretical Volume of Pipeline Drip for all Receipt Points upstream of the applicable Pipeline Drip recovery point. “Theoretical Volume of Pipeline Drip” shall be the product of (i) the total volume of Gas (in Mcf) received at each Receipt Point upstream of the applicable Pipeline Drip recovery point during the applicable Month and (ii) the Gallons per minute of pentanes and heavier components in such Gas, determined at the relevant Receipt Point. The Gallons per minute shall be determined by the Gatherer using the sampling requirements in Article 11 from each Receipt Point. Gatherer shall provide to Producer such allocated volumes in converted Dth for each Month for balancing. Any Pipeline Drip delivered to a Pipeline Drip Delivery Point by Producer shall not be assessed the Pipeline Drip Handling Fee. Producer shall be solely responsible for all arrangements permitting Gatherer to deliver Pipeline Drip to each such Pipeline Drip Delivery Point.

ARTICLE 7

CERTAIN RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF PARTIES

Section 7.1 Operational Control of Gatherer’s Facilities. Gatherer shall design, construct, own, operate, and maintain each Gathering System at its sole cost and risk. Subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Gatherer shall be entitled to full and complete operational control of its facilities and shall be entitled to schedule deliveries and to operate and reconfigure and remove its facilities in a manner consistent with its obligations under this Agreement. Following termination of this Agreement, at Producer’s request, Gatherer shall disconnect each Gathering System from Producer’s facilities at Gatherer’s sole cost, risk, and expense.

Section 7.2 Maintenance. Subject to the right of Producer to receive temporary and/or permanent release under Section 3.8 or Section 3.9, Gatherer shall be entitled to interrupt its performance hereunder to perform necessary or desirable inspections, pigging, maintenance, testing, alterations, modifications, expansions, connections, repairs or replacements to its facilities as Gatherer deems necessary (“Maintenance”), with reasonable notice provided to Producer, except in cases of emergency where such notice is impracticable or in cases where the operations of Producer will not be affected. Before the beginning of each calendar year, Gatherer shall provide Producer in writing with its good faith projected schedule of the Maintenance to be performed during the year and the anticipated date of such Maintenance. On or before the 10^th Day before the end of each Month, Gatherer shall provide Producer with its good faith projected maintenance schedule for the following Month, provided that the Parties acknowledge such yearly and monthly projected schedules shall be subject to change at Gatherer’s reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, beginning on January 1, 2021, and every Six Months thereafter, the Parties shall calculate the total Dedicated Gas tendered and not accepted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement during the prior six Month period on the Gathering System due to Maintenance, provided however, that there shall be no downtime calculated unless such downtime resulted in a failure of Gatherer to accept volumes of Dedicated Gas delivered and subject to a Nomination up to the MDQ. If any such calculation determines that the run time during the previous six Months on the Gathering System, excluding any downtime caused or contributed to by the actions or inactions of Producer Group or Force Majeure, was less than [***]% during the entirety of such period (a “Maintenance Deficiency”), then Producer shall be entitled to the applicable remedies set forth on Exhibit Q.

Section 7.3 Firm Service; Capacity Allocations On Each Gathering System. Subject to the capacity allocations set forth in this Section 7.3, Gatherer has the right to contract with other Persons for the delivery of Third Party Gas to each Gathering System, including the delivery of Firm Service. If the quantity of Gas available for delivery into any System AMI exceeds the capacity of such System AMI at any point relevant to Gatherer’s service to Producer Group hereunder, then Gatherer shall interrupt or curtail receipts of Gas in accordance with the following:

(a)First, Gatherer shall curtail all Interruptible Service prior to curtailing Firm Service.

(b)Second, if additional curtailments are required beyond Section 7.3(a) above, Gatherer shall curtail Firm Service. In the event Gatherer curtails some, but not all, Firm Service on a particular Day, Gatherer shall allocate the capacity of the applicable point on the relevant System AMI available to such shippers of Firm Service, including Dedicated Gas, on a pro rata basis based upon the location of such curtailment and shipper’s Firm Service rights upstream of the suction location of curtailment or at/through the affected point; provided, however, if Gatherer can identify

the location of the constraint, Gatherer will only impose allocation upon those shippers whose Gas is affected by the constraint.

Section 7.4 Arrangements After Redelivery. It shall be Producer’s obligation to make any required arrangements with other parties for delivery of Dedicated Gas to the Receipt Points and Delivery Point Gas following delivery by Gatherer at the Delivery Points and all delivered Pipeline Drip to each Pipeline Drip Delivery Point.

ARTICLE 8

PRESSURES AT RECEIPT POINTS AND DELIVERY POINTS

Section 8.1 Pressures at Receipt Points. For each Six Month Period following the Effective Date, Gatherer will maintain an average operating pressure across each System AMI at or below the pressures specified on Exhibit C, as may be updated annually by mutual agreement of the Parties (each acting reasonably and in good faith) (the “Average Allowable Operating Pressure”). The actual average Six Month Period operating pressure across each System AMI will be determined by dividing (a) the sum of the daily average pressures on such System AMI, as continuously measured during such Six Month period, excluding any Days of Force Majeure affecting such System AMI and any Days where the Nomination is in excess of the System AMI LP MDQ, by (b) the number of Days in the subject Six Month Period, excluding Days of Force Majeure affecting such System AMI and any Days where the Nomination is in excess of the System AMI LP MDQ. If the actual average Six Month Period operating pressure across a System AMI exceeds the applicable Average Allowable Operating Pressure in such Six Month Period for any reason other than Force Majeure or the action or inaction of any member of the Producer Group (an “Overpressure Event”), then Producer may so notify Gatherer (an “Overpressure Notice”) and the following provisions will apply:

(a)If an Overpressure Event occurs, then Producer shall be entitled to the remedies set forth on Exhibit Q.

(b)Gatherer acknowledges and agrees that any Overpressure Event will not constitute, nor be asserted by Gatherer as, a Force Majeure under this Agreement, except to the extent such Overpressure Event was caused or contributed to by an event of Force Majeure.

Section 8.2 Pressures at Receipt Points. Producer shall deliver or cause to be delivered Gas to each Receipt Point at sufficient pressure to enter each Gathering System against its operating pressure, except that Producer shall not be obligated to deliver Gas at pressures in excess of the MAOP of each System AMI at such Receipt Point.

Section 8.3 Pressures at Delivery Points. Each Gathering System shall be designed for and shall be operated at a pressure sufficient to effect delivery to the relevant Downstream Pipeline.

Section 8.4 Producer Facilities. Producer, at its own expense, shall construct, equip, maintain, and operate all facilities (including separation, well lines, line heaters, dehydration and/or compression equipment) necessary to deliver Dedicated Gas to Gatherer at the Receipt Points, including all facilities in the Producer Gathered Areas. Producer shall install and maintain sufficient pressure regulating equipment upstream of the Receipt Points in order to keep the pressure of the Gas delivered to Gatherer at the Receipt Points from exceeding the MAOP at the applicable Receipt Point, as determined by Gatherer in its sole discretion.

ARTICLE 9

NOMINATION AND BALANCING

Section 9.1 Nominations.

(a)No later than 15 Business Days prior to the end of each Month during the term of this Agreement, Producer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Gatherer a written file containing the following information: (i) Producer’s estimate of the average Daily quantity of total expected flowing Gas, with Dedicated Gas specifically identified, in both Mcf and Dth, to be made available hereunder at each Receipt Point corresponding to each System AMI for the next succeeding Month and (ii) Producer’s estimate of the average Daily quantity of Gas, in Dth, that Producer desires Gatherer to deliver at each Delivery Point on each Day of the next succeeding Month (a “Monthly Estimate”). Producer shall have the right to change its estimates set forth in any Monthly Estimate (the Monthly Estimate as modified by each change thereto, if any, a “Nomination”) at any time and Gatherer shall accept and confirm Producer’s revised nominated quantities in each Nomination to the extent (1) with respect to each Receipt Point in any portion of the Gathering System described in such Nomination, Producer’s nominations do not result in a quantity of Dedicated Gas in excess of the MDQ or Low Pressure MDQ applicable to such portion of the System AMI across all such Receipt Points, (2) with respect to each Delivery Point in any portion of each Gathering System described in such Nomination, Producer’s nominations do not result in a quantity of Dedicated Gas in excess of the MRDO to Delivery Point(s), (3) such Nomination is consistent, in all material respects, with the nomination cycles and methodology of Gatherer and/or the applicable Downstream Pipeline(s), and (4) such Nomination is confirmed by Gatherer with the operator of the applicable Downstream Pipeline(s) to which the Gas has been nominated for delivery. In all cases and consistent with Gatherer’s Nomination cycles, Gatherer shall provide Producer with access to the confirmed and scheduled quantities.

(b)Gatherer may require receipt side Nomination for any Gas it receives from Producer Group on other Gatherer gathering assets. Should Gatherer require specific receipt side Nomination, Gatherer will communicate confirmed and scheduled quantities to Producer consistent with Gatherer’s Nomination cycles.

(c)With respect to volumes nominated in any Nomination in excess of the volumes described in clauses (1) and (2) of (a), such excess volumes will be confirmed by Gatherer if the Nomination complies with clauses (3) and (4) of (a) on an Interruptible Service basis.

Section 9.2 Downstream Arrangements. Producer will make, or cause to be made, all necessary arrangements at and downstream of each Delivery Point, in each case, which interconnects with a Downstream Pipeline in order to effectuate Gatherers’ delivery of Gas.

Section 9.3 Balancing. The Parties recognize that from time to time there may be differences between the volume of Gas delivered at any Delivery Point and the volume of Gas received at any Receipt Point in each System AMI (less any Lost and Unaccounted For Gas and Fuel, such a difference, the “Imbalance”). Notwithstanding the preceding, both Producer and Gatherer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to manage all Imbalances to limit the incurrence of Imbalances and Imbalance Penalties, costs, or fees. Both Producer and Gatherer are responsible for actively monitoring Imbalances on a Daily basis and communicating to rectify the existence of any Imbalance attributable to Producer (a “Producer Imbalance”). Gatherer will make available Daily and/or real-time measurement and Imbalance data (an “Imbalance Notice”) so that Producer and Gatherer can attempt to eliminate or remedy such Producer Imbalance in a timely manner. Gatherer may assist Producer in managing the Producer Imbalance and may request that Producer change its Nomination at a Delivery Point(s) or, with advance notice to Producer, restrict, interrupt, or reduce its receipts or deliveries of Producer’s Dedicated Gas at the Receipt Point(s) or Delivery Point(s) in order to remedy the Producer Imbalance. If the existence of a Producer Imbalance causes any Downstream Pipeline or other entity to adjust flows, reduce capacity or assess any penalties, costs or fees (“Imbalance Penalties”) against Gatherer, provided Producer has received the applicable Imbalance Notice, Producer shall make immediate physical adjustments or reimburse Gatherer for Producer’s proportionate share of any cost, penalty, or fee except to the extent such Imbalance Penalty was caused by the negligence of Gatherer or other shippers on the Gathering System. Gatherer will provide supporting documentation to Producer to support a claim for reimbursement of Producer’s proportionate share of such Imbalance Penalties incurred. If the Parties are unable to agree on the appropriate allocation of Imbalance Penalties pursuant to this Section 9.3 within 30 Days of the date Gatherer provides Producer the supporting documentation in support of a claim for reimbursement from Producer, such dispute shall be handled in accordance with Section 13.4. If any Imbalance Penalty disputed by Producer is determined to be owed by Producer, Producer shall promptly pay such disputed amount to Gatherer, together with interest on such disputed amount at an annual rate as set forth in Section 13.5 from the date such disputed amount would have originally been due if not disputed until the date such disputed amount is paid.

ARTICLE 10

QUALITY

Section 10.1 Receipt Point Gas Quality Specifications. Gas delivered by or for the account of Producer to each Receipt Point shall meet the specifications set forth on Exhibit G (collectively, the “Gas Quality Specifications”).

Section 10.2 Wellhead Condensate. Producer shall not deliver wellhead condensate to any Receipt Point.

Section 10.3 Non-Conforming Gas. If any Gas delivered by or for the account of Producer fails at any time to conform to the Gas Quality Specifications, then Gatherer will have the right to immediately discontinue receipt of such non-conforming Gas so long as such Gas continues to be non-conforming. Producer agrees to undertake commercially reasonable measures to eliminate the cause of such non-conformance. Producer agrees to be responsible for, and to defend, indemnify, release, and hold Gatherer and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, representatives, and invitees harmless from and against, all claims and losses of whatever kind and nature resulting from non-conforming Gas delivered for or on account of Producer Group to the Gathering System or for a breach of Section 10.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Gatherer has accepted receipts of such non-conforming Gas having actual Knowledge of such nonconformity, Producer will not be required to indemnify Gatherer for damages to the Gathering System and Gatherer’s facilities arising out of such delivery of non-conforming Gas.

Section 10.4 Delivery Point Gas Quality Specifications. If Producer delivers Gas to Gatherer at the Receipt Points that meets the Gas Quality Specifications, Gatherer shall redeliver Delivery Point Gas to or for the account of Producer that meets the Gas Quality Specifications.

Section 10.5 Damp Gas. Within the Damp Gas Area, if Producer delivers Gas that conforms to all Gas Quality Specifications other than Hydrocarbon Dew Point, certain hydrocarbon maximum percentage limits, ▇▇▇▇▇ Index, and/or Gross Heating Value and Producer delivers sufficient Dry Gas to such System AMI, Gatherer agrees to blend such Damp Gas with the Dry Gas on the applicable System AMI so that it meets the applicable Gas Quality Specifications for such Delivery Point. Such blending shall be solely dependent on the presence of sufficient Dry Gas to such System AMI to ensure sufficient blending at no more than 90% of any such certain hydrocarbon maximum % limits, ▇▇▇▇▇ Index, Hydrocarbon Dew Point, and/or Gross Heating Value specified in the most stringent Downstream Pipeline of each Delivery Point connected to such System AMI.

Section 10.6 Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event there is an enactment of, or change in, any law after the Effective Date of this Agreement which, in Gatherer’s reasonable determination, results in (a) a Governmental Authority requiring Gatherer to hold or acquire emission allowances or their equivalent related to (i) the carbon dioxide content or emissions or (ii) the greenhouse gas content or emissions attributable to Dedicated Gas and/or the gathering, or transportation of such Gas (collectively, “Producer’s GHG Emissions”) or (b) Gatherer incurring any costs or expenses attributable to Dedicated Gas for disposal or treating of Producer’s GHG Emissions, or any other additional economic burden being placed on Gatherer in connection with or related to Producer’s GHG Emissions, including any tax, assessment, or other cost or expense (collectively, “Emissions Charges”), then (y) Producer will use reasonable efforts to provide any required emissions allowances or their equivalent to Gatherer in a timely manner (and Producer shall indemnify and hold harmless Gatherer from against any losses, including any expenses incurred by Gatherer in acquiring such allowances in the marketplace, arising out of the failure to so provide such allowances) and (z) Producer shall be fully responsible for such Emissions Charges by way of an increase in the Reservation Fee. Such increase in the Reservation Fee shall be calculated each Contract Year by amortizing the aggregate amount of the Emissions Charges based on the aggregate Minimum Volume Commitment for such Contract Year; provided, however, that in the event that any increase to the Reservation Fee for a Contract Year is insufficient to reimburse Gatherer for the Emissions Charges, the Parties agree to include the shortfall amount on the next Month’s invoice pursuant to Section 13.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event this Section 10.6 results in an increase to the Reservation Fee in excess of [***]%, Producer may elect to terminate the Agreement within [***] Days of receipt of Gatherer’s request for payment of Emissions Charges or provision of allowances, which termination shall be effective on the last date set forth in Producer’s written notice.

MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT AND PROCEDURES

Section 11.1 Equipment. Excluding Producer owned Measurement Facilities identified in Exhibit M, Gatherer shall install, own, operate, and maintain Measurement Facilities to measure Gas at all other Receipt Points and shall ensure that the relevant Downstream Pipeline installs, owns, operates, and maintains Measurement Facilities at the Delivery Points (but downstream of any slug catcher) for Gas. Measurement Facilities at the Receipt Points shall meet current industry standards for custody transfer measurement. Gatherer shall operate and maintain at Gatherer’s cost all Measurement Facilities, including those identified in Exhibit N. Producer shall have the right to install check Measurement Facilities at each Receipt Point, including the right to install check measurement equipment on Gatherer’s meter assembly, provided such Measurement Facilities do not interfere with Gatherer’s Measurement Facilities.

Section 11.2 Gas Measurement Standards. The following standards shall apply to the measurement of Gas hereunder:

(a)Where measurement is by orifice meter, all fundamental constants, observations, records, and procedures involved in the determination and/or verification of the quantity and other characteristics of the Gas delivered hereunder shall be in accordance with the standards prescribed in the latest edition of A.G.A. Report No. 3 (ANSI/API 2530) “Orifice Metering of Natural Gas” with any revisions, amendments or supplements as may be mutually acceptable to Producer and Gatherer.

(b)Where measurement is by ultrasonic meter, all fundamental constants, observations, records, and procedures involved in the determination and/or verification of the quantity and other characteristics of the Gas delivered hereunder shall be in accordance with the standards prescribed in the latest edition of A.G.A. Report No. 9 “Measurement of Gas by Multi Path Ultrasonic Meters” with any revisions, amendments or supplements as may be mutually acceptable to Producer and Gatherer.

(c)The changing and integration of the charts (if utilized for measurement purposes hereunder) and calibrating and adjusting of meters shall be performed by Gatherer.

Section 11.3 Gas Measurement.

(a)The unit of volume for measurement of Gas delivered hereunder shall be one Mcf at a base temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit and at a pressure base of 14.73 psia without adjustment for water vapor content. It is agreed that for the purposes of measurement and computations hereunder, (i) the absolute atmospheric (barometric) pressure shall be assumed to be 14.40 psia regardless of the actual elevation or location of the Receipt Point above sea level or of a variation of barometric pressure from time to time and (ii) all measurements and testing performed hereunder shall be made by Gatherer in accordance with applicable rules, regulations, and orders, the terms of this Agreement, and prudent industry standards.

(b)The heating value and specific gravity of the Gas shall be determined using chromatographic methods as often as required, using representative spot samples or continuous samplers as determined by Gatherer in accordance with standard industry practice, to reasonably assure accurate determinations, but in any event, at least once per calendar year, unless Producer notifies Gatherer of a change in supply source. The tests shall determine the heating value and specific gravity to be used in computations in the measurement of Gas received by Gatherer until the next regular test, or until changed by special test. In the Month in which the sample is collected, the new Gas quality will be applied to the start of the current measurement contract Month. Gatherer shall procure or cause to be procured a sample of Gas at each Delivery Point and analyze the samples by chromatographic analysis to determine the component content (mole percent), specific gravity, and the Gross Heating Value thereof. These determinations shall be made utilizing the following standards: (i) Gas Processors Association Obtaining Natural Gas Samples for Analysis by Gas, Publication No. 2166 as amended or supplemented from time to time, (ii) Gas Processors Association Analysis for Natural Gas and Similar Gaseous Mixtures by Gas Chromatography, Publication No. 2161 as amended or supplemented from time to time, or (iii) any other tests that are mutually agreed by Producer and Gatherer.

(c)The temperature of Gas shall be determined by means of a recording thermometer recording the temperature of such Gas flowing through each measurement meter. The average temperature to the nearest 0.01º Fahrenheit, obtained while Gas is being delivered, will be the applicable flowing Gas temperature for the period under consideration.

(d)The deviation of the Gas from Ideal Gas Laws shall be determined in accordance with the A.G.A. Par Research Project NX-19 Report “Manual for the Determination of Supercompressibilty Factors for Natural Gas”, Reprinted 1976, if the composition of the Gas is such to render this procedure applicable. Orifice measurement will utilize the A.G.A. Report No. 8 gross characterization method II compressibility calculation.

(e)Physical constants required for making calculations hereunder shall be taken from the Gas Processors Association Table of Physical Properties for Hydrocarbons and Other Compounds of Interest to the Natural Gas Industry, Publication No. 2145 as amended or supplemented from time to time. Physical constants for the hexanes and heavier hydrocarbons portion of hydrocarbon mixtures shall be assumed to be the same as the physical constants for hexane.

Section 11.4 Notice of Measurement Facilities Inspection and Calibration. Each of Producer and Gatherer shall give reasonable notice to the other in order that the other may, at its option, have representatives present to observe any reading, inspecting, testing, calibrating or adjusting of Measurement Facilities used in measuring or checking the measurement of receipts or deliveries of Gas under this Agreement. The official electronic data from such Measurement Facilities shall remain the property of the Measurement Facilities’ owner, but copies of such records shall, upon written request, be submitted, together with calculations and flow computer configurations therefrom, to the requesting Party for inspection and verification.

Section 11.5 Measurement Accuracy Verification.

(a)Gatherer shall calibrate meters as often as required, as determined by Gatherer in accordance with standard industry practices to reasonably assure accurate measurement in accordance with ETRN OMP-102. Calibrations of meters will be made in the presence of representatives of Producer, if Producer chooses to be represented. Orifice plate and tube inspection will be made at each meter calibration unless a facility shut-down is required, in which case the approval of both Parties shall be required.

(b)If, during any test of the Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate through each meter run in excess of 2% of the adjusted flow rate (whether positive or negative and using the adjusted flow rate as the percent error equation denominator), then any previous recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period during which the error existed (and which is either known definitely or agreed to by Producer and Gatherer) and the total flow for the period redetermined in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.7. If the period of error condition cannot be determined or agreed upon between Producer and Gatherer, such correction shall be made over a period extending over the last one half of the time elapsed since the date of the prior test revealing the 2% error.

(c)If, during any test of any Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated hourly flow rate which does not exceed 2% of the adjusted flow rate, all prior recordings and electronic flow computer data shall be considered to be accurate for quantity determination purposes.

Section 11.6 Special Tests. If Producer or Gatherer desires a special test (a test not scheduled by a Party under the provisions of Section 11.5) of any Measurement Facilities, 72 hours advance notice shall be given to the other and both Producer and Gatherer shall cooperate to secure a prompt test of the accuracy of such equipment. If the Measurement Facilities tested are found to be within the range of accuracy set forth in Section 11.5(b), then the Party that requested the test shall pay the costs of such special test including any labor and transportation costs pertaining thereto. If the Measurement Facilities tested are found to be outside the range of accuracy set forth in Section 11.5(b), then the Party that owns such Measurement Facilities shall pay such costs and perform the corrections according to Section 11.7.

Section 11.7 Metered Flow Rates in Error. If, for any reason, any Measurement Facilities are (i) out of adjustment, (ii) out of service, or (iii) out of repair and the total calculated flow rate through each meter run is found to be in error by an amount of the magnitude described in Section 11.5(b), the total quantity of Gas delivered shall be determined in accordance with the first of the following methods which is feasible:

(a)By using the registration of any mutually agreeable check metering facility, if installed and accurately registering (subject to testing as provided for in Section 11.5);

(b)Where multiple meter runs exist in series, by calculation using the registration of such meter run equipment; provided that they are measuring Gas from upstream and downstream headers in common with the faulty metering equipment, are not controlled by separate regulators, and are accurately registering;

(c)By correcting the error by re-reading of the official charts, or by straightforward application of a correcting factor to the quantities recorded for the period (if the net percentage of error is ascertainable by calibration, tests or mathematical calculation); or

(d)By estimating the quantity, based upon deliveries made during periods of similar conditions when the meter was registering accurately.

Section 11.8 Record Retention. The Party owning the Measurement Facilities shall retain and preserve all test data, charts, and similar records for any calendar year for a period of at least 24 Months following the end of such calendar year unless applicable law or regulation requires a longer time period or the Party has received written notification of a dispute involving such records, in which case records shall be retained until the related issue is resolved.

Section 11.9 Measurement Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute regarding the subject matter of this Article 11, management representatives of the Parties with direct authority to enter into a settlement agreement shall meet and make a good faith effort to resolve such dispute. In the event the management representatives are unable to resolve any such dispute, within thirty (30) Days after commencement of the meetings to resolve such dispute, then following that period, either Party may submit all remaining disputes to a mutually agreed expert (the “Expert”). If the Parties have not agreed upon a Person to serve as Expert for a particular dispute within ten (10) Days, either Party may, within five (5) Days after the end of such initial ten (10) Day period, formally apply to the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania office of the American Arbitration Association to choose the Expert. The Expert shall not have worked as an employee or outside consultant for any Party or its Affiliates during the ten (10) year period preceding the arbitration or have any financial interest in the dispute other than the payment of the Expert’s fees and expenses incurred as Expert.

The Expert’s determination shall be made within forty-five (45) Days after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding upon the Parties, without right of appeal. In making its determination, the Expert shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, and may consider such other matters as, in the opinion of the Expert are necessary or helpful to make a proper determination. The Expert may consult with and engage disinterested third parties to advise the Expert. The Expert shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific dispute submitted by any Party and may not award damages, interest, or penalties to any Party with respect to any matter. The Parties shall each bear their own legal fees and other costs of presenting their respective cases to any Expert pursuant to this Section 11.9. Gatherer shall bear one half of the costs and expenses of the Expert, and Producer shall be responsible for the remaining one half of such costs and expenses.

Section 11.10 Access.

(a)Gatherer shall contract with a provider of monitoring services (the “Monitoring Services Provider”) for remote monitoring of Gas Measurement Facilities, including monitoring of measurement data on an hourly (or more frequent) basis for flow rate, meter pressures, meter temperature, Gross Heating Value, and composition for importation into production software reasonably satisfactory to Producer.

(b)Gatherer shall provide Producer 120 Days’ notice of any termination by Gatherer of its contract with any Monitoring Services Provider.

Upon the MVP In-Service Date, provided that Producer has not made the Election described in Section 1.2 of this Exhibit S below, the Parties hereby agree that within 10 Days following the MVP In-Service Date (the “Amendment Deadline”), the Parties shall execute the amendment to this Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit S-1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the MVP In-Service Date occurs after January 1, 2024, then the rate schedules set forth in such amendment shall be revised in accordance with Section 1.4 of this Exhibit S.

Section 1.2 Cash Payment Option Election and Rate Relief.

(a)If the MVP In-Service Date has not occurred on or prior to January 1, 2022, EQT Corp. may, at any time following January 1, 2022 until the earlier of (i) the Business Day immediately preceding the MVP In-Service Date or (ii) December 31, 2022 (the “Election Period”), by delivery of written notice to Gatherer (such notice, the “Election Notice”), elect to receive a payment in cash in the amount of $[●]1 from Gatherer (such election, the “Election” and such payment, the “Election Payment”). Upon EQT Corp.’s delivery of the Election Notice, the Election shall be irrevocable. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that EQT Corp. does not exercise the Election during the Election Period, EQT Corp. shall no longer have any right to exercise the Election, and the Parties shall execute the amendment to this Agreement in the form of Exhibit S-1 as provided in Section 1.1 of this Exhibit S.

(b)In the event that EQT Corp. exercises the Election pursuant to Section 1.2(a) of this Exhibit S, the Parties hereby agree that Gatherer shall deliver to EQT Corp. the Election Payment no more than 90 Days following Gatherer’s receipt of the Election Notice by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by EQT Corp. in the Election Notice.

(c)The right to make the Election and to receive the Election Payment are personal to EQT Corp. and may not be assigned or transferred to a Person without Gatherer’s written consent, which may be withheld in Gatherer’s sole discretion.

S-1

Section 1.4 MVP In-Service Date Following January 1, 2024. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the MVP In-Service Date occurs after January 1, 2024, then the Parties shall, following the MVP In-Service Date, prepare the appropriate rate schedules to be attached to Exhibit S-1 and Exhibit S-2, as applicable, to give effect to the rate relief contemplated in this Exhibit W in accordance with the methodology utilized to prepare the rate schedules attached hereto as Exhibit S-1 and Exhibit S-2.

Section 1.5 Setoff. In the event Gatherer fails to timely make the Election Payment when due under Section 1.2 of this Exhibit S, EQT Corp. shall have the right to set off any other amounts owed by EQT Corp. (or, at its election, Producer) to Gatherer under this Agreement against such amount owed by Gatherer to EQT Corp.

Section 1.6 Credit Support. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the Effective Date, Gatherer meets the Minimum Credit Standard. For so long as Gatherer satisfies the Minimum Credit Standard during the term hereof, Gatherer shall not be obligated to post or issue, or cause to be posted or issued, any Credit Support to support Gatherer’s Election Payment obligations hereunder. If, at any time after the Effective Date, Gatherer is subject to a Downgrade, Gatherer shall promptly notify Producer in writing of the occurrence of the Downgrade and shall deliver Credit Support in an amount equal to the Election Payment Amount within five (5) Business Days of the Downgrade. Any such Credit Support provided by Gatherer shall be maintained in full force and effect through a period ending as of the earlier of (a) the date that Gatherer satisfies the Minimum Credit Standard, (b) the date on which Producer elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to exercise the Election and (c) the date on which the Election Payment has been made in full. Prior to the Effective Date and at such other times as Producer may reasonably request, Gatherer shall provide Producer with documentation demonstrating its creditworthiness to the reasonable satisfaction of Gatherer. For purposes of this Section 1.6 of Exhibit S, “Credit Support” has the meaning set forth in Section 5.4 of the Agreement.

Section 1.7 Share Purchase Agreement. The effectiveness of this Exhibit S is conditioned upon the occurrence of the “Closing” (as such term is defined in the Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 26, 2020, by and between EQT Corp. and Equitrans Midstream Corporation).
