subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers,
consolidations, and disposed operations (and the change in any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such
period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger,
consolidation or disposed operation that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment,

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger,
consolidation, or disposed operation and the amount of income or earnings relating thereto, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer (and may include, for the
avoidance of doubt, cost savings, operating expense reductions, and synergies resulting from such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, or disposed operation which is being given pro forma effect that have been
or are expected to be realized). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably
determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computations discussed in this definition,
interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period except as set forth in the first
paragraph of this definition. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based
upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuer may designate. 
 With respect to any
four-quarter period beginning prior to the Effective Date for which the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is being calculated, the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be made on a pro forma basis to give effect to the Transactions as if
they had occurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

GAAP shall thereafter be construed to mean IFRS (except as otherwise provided in this Indenture), including as to the ability of the Issuer to make an election pursuant to the previous sentence; provided that any such election, once made,
shall be irrevocable; provided, further, that any calculation or determination in this Indenture that requires the application of GAAP for periods that include fiscal quarters ended prior to the Issuer’s election to apply IFRS
shall remain as previously calculated or determined in accordance with GAAP; provided, further, that the Issuer may only make such election if it also elects to report any subsequent financial reports required to be made by the Issuer,
including pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, in IFRS. The Issuer shall give notice of any such election made in accordance with this definition to the Trustee and the Holders. If there occurs a change in IFRS or
GAAP, as the case may be, and such change would cause a change in the method of calculation of any standards, terms or measures (including all computations of amounts and ratios) used in this Indenture (an “Accounting Change”), then
the Issuer may elect that such standards, terms or measures shall be calculated as if such Accounting Change had not occurred. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, for purposes of Section 4.03 herein, GAAP shall mean the GAAP (or IFRS, if the

Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuers. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person
of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuers, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.04.

first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation. 
 (f)
Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which
may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or action taken by a Holder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this Section 1.04(f)
shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part. 
 (g) Without limiting the generality of

 Section 1.05 Measuring Compliance. 

(a) With respect to any (x) Investment or acquisition, in each case, for which the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer may not
terminate its obligations (or may not do so without incurring significant expense) due to a lack of financing for such Investment or acquisition (whether by merger, consolidation or other business combination or the acquisition of Capital Stock or
otherwise), as applicable, and (y) repayment, repurchase, or refinancing of Indebtedness with respect to which an irrevocable notice of repayment (or similar irrevocable notice), which may be conditional, has been delivered, in each case, for
purposes of determining: 
 (i) whether any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is being incurred in
connection with such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness is permitted to be incurred in compliance with Section 4.09 hereof; 

  
 46 













 (ii) whether any Lien being incurred in connection with such Investment,
acquisition or repayment, repurchase, or refinancing of Indebtedness or to secure any such Indebtedness is permitted to be incurred in accordance with Section 4.12 hereof or the definition of “Permitted Liens”; 

(iii) whether any other transaction undertaken or proposed to be undertaken in connection with such Investment, acquisition or
repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or the Notes; and 

(iv) any calculation of the ratios, including Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, Consolidated Secured
Debt Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, EBITDA or Total Assets and, whether a Default or Event of Default exists in connection with the foregoing, 
 at the
option of the Issuer, the date the definitive agreement for such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness is entered into or irrevocable notice, which may be conditional, of such repayment, repurchase, or
refinancing of Indebtedness is given to the holders of such Indebtedness (each, a “Transaction Agreement Date”) may be used as the applicable date of determination, as the case may be, in each case with such pro forma
adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of “EBITDA”. 

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, if the Issuer elects to use the Transaction Agreement Date as the applicable date of determination in
accordance with the foregoing, (1) any fluctuation or change in the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, EBITDA, or Total Assets of the Issuer from the Transaction
Agreement Date to the date of consummation of such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase, or refinancing of Indebtedness, will not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether (x) any Indebtedness or Lien that is being
incurred in connection with such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase, or refinancing of Indebtedness is permitted to be incurred or (y) any other transaction undertaken in connection with such Investment, acquisition or repayment,
repurchase, or refinancing of Indebtedness complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or the Notes, and (2) until such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase, or refinancing of Indebtedness is consummated or
such definitive agreement is terminated, such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase, or refinancing of Indebtedness and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection therewith (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and
Liens) will be given pro forma effect when determining compliance of other transactions (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens unrelated to such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness)
that are consummated after the Transaction Agreement Date and on or prior to the date of such consummation or termination. 
 (c) The
compliance with any requirement relating to the absence of a Default or Event of Default may be determined as of the Transaction Agreement Date and not as of any later date as would otherwise be required under this Indenture. 

  
 47 













 (d) For purposes of covenant compliance, the amount of any Investment shall be the amount
actually invested, without adjustment for subsequent increases or decreases in the value of such Investment but giving effect to any returns or distributions of capital or repayment of principal actually received in cash by such Person with respect
thereto. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
(or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on a ratio basket based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, such
ratio(s) shall be calculated solely for purposes of Sections 4.09 and 4.12 hereof, with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other basket (other than a ratio basket
based on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is incurred or issued, each Lien incurred and each
other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or Consolidated Total Debt Ratio test. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless the Issuer elects otherwise, all obligations of any Person that are or would have
been treated as operating leases for purposes of GAAP prior to adoption by the Issuer of Accounting Standards Codification topic 482, Leases (“ASC 842”) shall continue to be accounted for as operating leases (and not be treated as
financing or capital lease obligations or Indebtedness) for purposes of all financial definitions, calculations and deliverables herein (including the calculation of Consolidated Net Income and EBITDA) (whether or not such operating lease
obligations were in effect on such date) notwithstanding the fact that such obligations are required in accordance with the ASC 842 or any other change in accounting treatment or otherwise (on a prospective or retroactive basis or otherwise) to be
treated as or to be re-characterized as financing or capital lease obligations or otherwise accounted for as liabilities in financial statements. Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably
determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. 

ARTICLE II 
 THE NOTES 

Section 2.01 Form and Dating; Terms. 

(a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A
hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of $200,000 and any integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

  
 48 













 (b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as
shall be specified in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto and each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount of Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and
that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase
or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Registrar or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by
Section 2.06 hereof. 
 The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of such Note for all purposes and only registered
Holders shall have rights under this Indenture and the Notes. Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) and Persons who hold beneficial interests in a Global Note through an Agent Member shall have no rights
under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary. The Depositary may be treated by the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any agent of the foregoing as the absolute owner of the
Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuers, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any agent of the foregoing from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or
other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of such Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of a beneficial interest in any
Global Note. 
 (c) Temporary Global Notes. Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form
of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Depositary and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary for the accounts of
the designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear and Clearstream, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent as hereinafter provided. 

Following the termination of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Note may be exchanged for
beneficial interests in the Regulation S Permanent Global Note upon certification in a form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer that those interests are owned by (i) non-U.S. Persons or (ii) U.S. Persons who acquired those interests
pursuant to another exemption from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from
time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Registrar and the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided. 

(d) Terms. The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and
the Issuers, the Guarantors from time to time party hereto, and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note
conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 

  
 49 













 The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this
Indenture is unlimited. Subject to compliance with Section 4.09 hereof, the Issuers may issue Additional Notes from time to time ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes without notice to or consent of the Holders, and such Additional
Notes shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Initial Notes, except that interest may accrue on the Additional Notes from their date of
issuance (or such other date specified by the Issuer); provided that, if any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP and/or ISIN, as
applicable. Any Additional Notes may be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture. 
 (e) DTC, Euroclear and
Clearstream Applicable Procedures. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.06, the Applicable Procedures of DTC shall be applicable to and shall control transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes for so long as DTC is the
Depositary. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer
Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes that are held by Agent Members through Euroclear or Clearstream. 

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. At least one Officer of the Issuer (or Issuers, when applicable) shall execute the
Notes on behalf of such Issuer by manual, facsimile or electronic (including “PDF”) signature (except as otherwise required by the Applicable Procedures). 

If an Officer of any Issuer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent
authenticates the Note, the Note shall nevertheless be valid. 
 A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, as the case may be, by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent. The
signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture. 
 On the Issue Date,
the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes. In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee or its Authenticating
Agent shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes. 
 The Trustee may appoint one or more
authenticating agents (each an “Authenticating Agent”) acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication
by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands. 

  
 50 













 Section 2.03 Registrar, Transfer Agent and Paying Agent. The Issuers shall maintain
(i) an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”), (ii) an office or agency where Notes may be transferred or exchanged (the “Transfer Agent”), and
(iii) an office or agency where the Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar and Transfer Agent shall keep a register of the Notes (the “Note Register”) and of their transfer and
exchange and will facilitate transfers of the Notes on behalf of the Issuer. The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars, one or more additional paying agents and one or more transfer agents. The term “Registrar” includes any
co-registrar, the term “Transfer Agent” includes any additional transfer agent and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. For avoidance of doubt, there shall be only one Note Register. 

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the
Global Notes. 
 The Issuers initially appoint U.S. Bank National Association, as Registrar, Transfer Agent and Paying Agent with respect to
the Notes. The rights, powers, duties, obligations and actions of each Agent under this Indenture are several and not joint or joint and several, and the Agents shall only be obliged to perform those duties expressly set out in this Indenture and
shall have no implied duties. 
 The Issuers may change the Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent without prior notice to any Holder.
The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying
Agent, the Trustee shall, to the extent that it is capable, act as such. An Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent. 

If, and to the extent that, the Notes are listed on an exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the Issuers shall satisfy any
requirement of such exchange as to paying agents, registrars and transfer agents and will comply with any notice requirements required under such exchange in connection with any change of paying agent, registrar or transfer agent. 

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on each due date of the principal of and
interest on any Note, the Issuers shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Issuer or a Subsidiary is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal and
interest when so becoming due. The Issuers shall no later than two Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is due, send to the Paying Agent an irrevocable payment instruction. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it
shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. The Issuers shall require each Paying Agent that is not a party to this Indenture to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall
hold for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any 

  
 51 













 
default by the Issuers in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers at any time may
require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee under this Section 2.04, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. Upon any
bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to any Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, a Paying Agent and the Trustee shall be held harmless and have no liability with respect to payments
or disbursements (including to the Holders) (i) for which payment instructions are not made or that are not otherwise deposited by the respective times set forth in this Section 2.04 and (ii) until they have confirmed receipt of funds
sufficient to make the relevant payment. No money held by an Agent needs to be segregated except as is required by law. The Agents will hold all funds as banker subject to the terms of this Indenture and as a result, such money will not be held in
accordance with the rules established by the Financial Conduct Authority in the Financial Conduct Authority’s Handbook of rules and guidance from time to time in relation to client money. 

Section 2.05 Holder Lists. The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list

hereof, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal
amount. 
 (viii) At the option of the Holder, subject to Section 2.06(a) hereof, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes
of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuers
shall execute, and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and mail, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to in accordance
with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof. 
 (ix) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to
be submitted pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by electronic delivery. 

(x) Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine, or inquire as to compliance with
any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfer between or among Agent Members in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of
such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express
requirements hereof. 
 Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Registrar, or
the Issuers and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and destruction, loss, or theft of any Note, the Issuers shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order and satisfaction of any other requirement of the
Trustee, the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall authenticate a replacement Note. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuers to
protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent, and any Authenticating Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuers and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note. 

  
 65 













 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07, in case any mutilated,
destroyed, lost, or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuers in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. 

Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuers and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. The provisions of this Section 2.07 shall be exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost, or stolen Notes. 
 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes. The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes
authenticated by the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent except for those cancelled by the Registrar, those delivered to the Registrar for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Registrar in accordance with
the provisions hereof and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuers, a Guarantor, or an Affiliate of the Issuers or a
Guarantor holds the Note. 
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee
receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code). 

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases
to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuers, a Guarantor or an Affiliate of the Issuers or a Guarantor) holds, on a Redemption
Date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes (or portions thereof) payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding (including for accounting purposes) and shall
cease to accrue interest. 
 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have
concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuers, a Guarantor or by any Affiliate of the Issuers or a Guarantor, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be
disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuers, a Guarantor or any Affiliate of
the Issuers or a Guarantor. 
 Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the
Issuers may prepare and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the
Issuers considers appropriate for temporary 
 Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 

  
 66 













 Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to
all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture. 
 Section 2.11
Cancellation. The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee
and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures. Certification of the disposition of all
cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuers upon request. The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest. If the Issuers defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted
interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01
hereof. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money
equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date
shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers of any such special record date. At least 15 days before any such special record date, the Issuers (or, upon the
written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers) shall send electronically, mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or otherwise deliver in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, to each
Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon
registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note. 

Section 2.13 CUSIPs and ISINs. The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use CUSIPs and ISINs (in each case, if then generally in use)
and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIPs and ISINs in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as
printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of
such numbers. The Issuers will as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIPs and ISINs. 

  
 67 













 Section 2.14 Additional Amounts. 

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor (a “Payor”) under or with respect to the
Notes or the Guarantees will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatsoever nature imposed, levied, collected,
withheld or assessed (collectively, “Taxes” by the United States, the Netherlands, any other jurisdiction in which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or any Guarantor is then incorporated, organized, engaged in business for tax purposes, or
resident for tax purposes, any jurisdiction from or through which any such payment is made by or on behalf of any Payor or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (each, a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”)),
unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. 
 (b) In the event such deduction or withholding of Taxes is required with respect
to payments under or with respect to the Notes by law of any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (other than the United States), subject to the limitations described below, the Payors will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”)
as may be necessary in order that every net payment received by the beneficial owner of such Note of principal of or interest or any other amount payable on the Notes (including upon redemption), after deduction or withholding for or on account of
such Taxes, will not be less than the amount that would have been received in respect of such payments in the absence of such deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes. Payment of Additional Amounts shall be made in accordance with
the procedures of any applicable securities depositary. However, the Payors’ obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to: 

(i) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed but for: 

(A) the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor,
beneficiary, member, partner or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a nominee, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership,
a corporation or other entity) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, including such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, partner or shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or
having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or having or having had a permanent establishment in the
Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction; 
 (B) the failure of such Holder or beneficial owner to comply with a request to provide any
certification, information or other reporting requirement, if compliance is required under tax laws and regulations of Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction to establish entitlement to a partial or complete exemption from such Taxes (including, but not
limited to, the requirement to provide an applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (with any required attachment), or any subsequent version thereof or successor thereto); 

(ii) any Taxes imposed by reason of the Holder or beneficial owner: 

(A) owning or having owned, directly or indirectly, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the total combined voting power
of all classes of the Issuer’s stock, as described in section 871(h)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, 
 (B) being
a bank receiving interest as described in section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, or 
 (C) being a
controlled foreign corporation that is related to the Issuer or any Guarantor by stock ownership for U.S. federal income tax purposes; 

(iii) any Taxes that would not have been so imposed but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note for
payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to such Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that such
Holder or beneficial owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period; 

(iv) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property, capital gains, wealth or similar Taxes; 

(v) any Taxes payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from a payment on such Note or with respect to any note
Guarantee; 
 (vi) any Taxes payable by a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the Note, or that is a fiduciary,
partnership, limited liability company or other similar entity, but, in each case, only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member or partner of such partnership, limited liability
company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had such beneficial owner, beneficiary, settlor, member or partner received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment; 

(vii) any Taxes required to be withheld by any paying agent from any payment on any Note, if such payment can be made without
such withholding by at least one other paying agent; 
 (viii) any Taxes imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the
Internal Revenue Code (or any amended or successor provision that is substantively comparable), any current or future regulations or official interpretation thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Internal Revenue
Code or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rule or practice adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement, treaty or convention entered into in connection with the implementation of the foregoing; 

  
 68 













 (ix) any Taxes imposed under or in connection with the 2021 Dutch
Withholding Tax Act (Wet bronbelasting 2021) with respect to a Holder, or, where applicable, a beneficiary of the Notes that is an entity that is related (gelieerd) to the Issuer within the meaning of the 2021 Dutch Withholding Tax Act; or 

(x) any combination of items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix). 

(c) For purposes of this Section 2.14, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement, or holding of or the receipt of any
payment with respect to a Note will not constitute a connection (x) between the Holder or beneficial owner and the United States or (y) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, partner or shareholder or other equity owner of, or
a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and the United States. 

(d) Any reference in this Indenture or in the Notes to principal or interest or other payment on the Notes shall be deemed to
refer also to Additional Amounts that may be payable under the provisions of this Section 2.14. 
 (e) Except as
specifically provided under this Section 2.14, the Issuer will not be required to make any payment with respect to any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority
of or in the United States. The foregoing obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized or otherwise considered
to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.

rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent shall deem fair and appropriate and otherwise in such manner as complies with the Applicable Procedures. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be liable for any selection made
by it in accordance with this paragraph (including the procedures of the relevant depositaries). 

  
 69 













 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes selected for
redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $200,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; no Note

Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. 

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. Subject to Sections 3.07(f), 3.09 and 3.11 hereof, the Issuer shall send electronically,
mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, notices of redemption at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures, except that redemption notices may be delivered more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a conditional redemption or Article VIII or Article XI hereof. For
Notes held by DTC or a nominee of DTC, notices of redemption shall be delivered in accordance with DTC’s Applicable Procedures. 
 The

of the original Note representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note; 

(d) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

condition to such redemption. 

  
 70 













 At the Issuers’ request, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall give the notice of
redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense; provided that the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent, at least five Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be delivered electronically,
mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee or the Paying Agent ), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee or Paying Agent give such notice
and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph and setting forth the form of such notice. 

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes
called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price (except as provided for in Section 3.07(f) hereof). The notice, if given in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have
been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice as provided herein or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity
of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07(f) hereof, on and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption. 

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption Price. 

(a) Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Redemption Date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money

on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date shall be paid to the
Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption is not paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuers to comply with the preceding paragraph,
interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest accrued to the Redemption Date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case, at the rate provided in
the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
 Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in
part, the Issuers shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuers a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the
Note surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $200,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an
Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note. 

  
 71

 (d) The Issuers or their Affiliates may, at any time and from time to time, acquire Notes by means other than a redemption,
whether by tender offer, exchange offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions, or otherwise, upon such terms and at such prices as the Issuers or their Affiliates may determine, which may be more or less than the consideration for which
the Initial Notes or any Additional Notes are initially sold and could be for cash or other consideration. 

  
 72 













 (e) In connection with any tender offer for the Notes (including any Change of Control Offer
or Asset Sale Offer), if Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Issuers, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of
the Issuers, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice (provided that such notice is not given
more than 30 days following such purchase date) to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender
offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record of the Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
Payment Date. 
 (f) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through
3.06 hereof. Notice of any redemption or purchase, whether in connection with an Equity Offering, other transaction or otherwise, may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such notice may, unless otherwise provided herein, at the
Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. If a redemption or purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state
that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the Redemption Date or purchase date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice was sent) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in
their sole discretion) or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date or purchase date, or by the Redemption Date or
purchase date as so delayed; provided that if a Redemption Date or purchase date is delayed, the setting of any new Redemption Date or purchase date shall be subject to the Applicable Procedures. In addition, the Issuers may provide in such notice
that payment of the redemption price or purchase price and performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption or purchase may be performed by another Person. 

Section 3.08 Mandatory Redemption. The Issuers shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payment with
respect to the Notes, other than a Special Mandatory Redemption pursuant to Section 3.11.

denomination), or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the
same manner as interest payments are made. 
 (c) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest

each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and, if
required by the terms of any other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment, to the holders of such other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer,

specified in the notice at least two Business Days before the Purchase Date; 

  
 74 













 (vii) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the
Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the close of business on the fourth Business Day prior to the expiration date of the Offer Period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of

such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to
rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).

the first fiscal year ending after the Issue Date), a certificate from any Officer stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the

or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuers and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that they shall not, by resort to any such
law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09: 

(1) in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the
criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, or Preferred Stock described in clauses (1) through (25) of Section 4.09(b) hereof or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to

that complies with this Section 4.09; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding (or deemed outstanding) under the Senior Credit Facilities on the Effective Date will be treated as incurred on the Effective Date under clause (1) of
Section 4.09(b) hereof and shall not be reclassified; 
 (2) the Issuer will be entitled to divide and/or classify, or
at any later time re-divide and/or reclassify, any item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.09(a) and Section 4.09(b) hereof without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock, or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(b) when calculating the amount of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) that may be incurred pursuant to
Section 4.09(a); 
 (3) any guarantee of, or obligation in respect of any letter of credit relating to, Indebtedness
that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee
or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 4.09; and 

  
 98 













 (4) in connection with the incurrence or issuance, as applicable, of
(x) revolving loan Indebtedness under this Section 4.09 or (y) any commitment relating to the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock under this Section 4.09 and the granting of any Lien to
secure such Indebtedness, the Issuer or applicable Restricted Subsidiary may designate such incurrence or issuance and the granting of any Lien therefor as having occurred on the date of first incurrence of such revolving loan Indebtedness or
commitment (such date, the “Deemed Date”), and any related subsequent actual incurrence or issuance and granting of such Lien therefor will be deemed for all purposes under this Indenture to have been incurred or issued and granted
on such Deemed Date, including for purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, usage of any baskets under this Indenture (if applicable), the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio, the Consolidated Total Debt Ratio and EBITDA (and all such
calculations on and after the Deemed Date until the termination or funding of such commitment shall be made on a pro forma basis giving effect to the deemed incurrence or issuance, the granting of any Lien therefor and related transactions in
connection therewith). 
 (d) Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or
amortization of original issue discount, and the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, of the same class, and accretion or amortization of liquidation
preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies, will each not be deemed to be an incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, or Preferred
Stock, as the case may be, for purposes of this Section 4.09. 
 (e) For purposes of determining compliance with any
U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the
date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or incurred, in the case of revolving credit debt (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent); provided that, if such Indebtedness is incurred to
refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such
refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (x) the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus
(y) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums (including tender premiums) and other costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees, or similar fees) incurred in connection with such refinancing. 

(f) The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from
the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 

  
 99 













 (g) For the purposes of this Indenture, Indebtedness that is unsecured is not deemed to be
subordinated or junior to secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, and Senior Indebtedness is not deemed to be subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same
collateral. 
 Section 4.10 Asset Sales. 

(a) On and following the Effective Date, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate,
directly or indirectly, an Asset Sale, unless: 
 (1) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives
consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (at the time of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(2) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75.0% of the consideration for such Asset Sale, together with all
other Asset Sales since the Issue Date (on a cumulative basis), received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of: 

(A) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the
footnotes thereto, or if incurred or accrued subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto if such
incurrence or increase had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined by the Issuer) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes, that are
extinguished in connection with the transactions relating to such Asset Sale, or that are assumed by the transferee (or any third party on behalf of such transferee) of any such assets or Equity Interests, in each case, pursuant to a written
agreement that releases the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such liabilities, 
 (B) any securities, notes or other
obligations or assets received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into Cash Equivalents, or by their terms are required to be satisfied for Cash Equivalents
(to the extent of the Cash Equivalents received), in each case, within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale, and 

(C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an
aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at the time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $500.0 million and 18% of EBITDA at the time of the
receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value, 

  
 100 













 shall, in each case, be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for purposes of this Section 4.10 and for no
other purpose. 
 (b) Within 450 days after the receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale consummated on and following the Effective
Date, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale, 
 (1)
to reduce: 
 (A) Obligations under Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor that is secured by a Lien (and, if such
Indebtedness is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly and permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto); 

(B) Obligations under the Notes and/or other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment (and, if such
Indebtedness is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly and permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto); provided that if the Issuer or any Guarantor shall so reduce Obligations under such Indebtedness, and if such
reduction did not consist of a reduction in Obligations under the Notes on an equal and ratable basis (or an offer to repurchase the Notes on an equal and ratable basis in accordance with Section 4.10(c) hereof), then the Issuer shall equally
and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes by (i) redeeming the Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof, (ii) purchasing the Notes through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the
principal amount thereof) or (iii) making an offer to all Holders of Notes to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Notes that would otherwise be prepaid, which
offer shall be made in accordance with Section 4.10(c) hereof (including the provisions requiring an offer to be made to holders of other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment); or 

(C) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor (and, if such Indebtedness is revolving credit
Indebtedness, to correspondingly and permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto); 
 (2) to make (A) an
Investment in any one or more businesses (provided that such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount
of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes or continues to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary), (B) an Investment in properties, (C) capital expenditures or (D) acquisitions of other assets; or 

  
 101 













 (3) any combination of the foregoing; 

provided that, in the case of clause (2) above, a binding commitment entered into within 450 days after the Asset Sale shall be treated as a
permitted application of the Net Cash Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good-faith expectation that such Net Cash Proceeds will be applied to satisfy
such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Cash Proceeds are applied in connection
therewith, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within 180 days of such cancellation or termination; provided further that, if any Second Commitment
is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Cash Proceeds are applied, then such Net Cash Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that (i) any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sales by a Foreign Subsidiary (a
“Foreign Disposition”) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States or (ii) the Issuer, in its sole discretion, has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all of
the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition would result in material adverse tax consequences, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 4.10; provided that,
within 450 days of the receipt of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit repatriation of such proceeds that would otherwise be subject to this Section 4.10 without
violating applicable local law or incurring material adverse tax consequences, and, if such proceeds may be repatriated, within such 450 day period, such proceeds shall be applied in compliance with this Section 4.10. 

(c) Any Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in
Section 4.10(b) hereof (it being understood that any portion of such net proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Notes, as described in Section 4.10(b)(1) hereof, shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is
accepted) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, the Issuers shall make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of the Notes and,
if required by the terms of any other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment, to the holders of such other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment, to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the
Notes and such other debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or in the event such other debt
that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment was issued with original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture and the agreements governing any such debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment. The Issuers will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within 10
Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $200.0 million by delivering the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee and Paying Agent. The Issuers may satisfy the foregoing obligations with
respect to any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds prior to the expiration of the relevant 450 days (or such longer period provided above) or with respect to Excess Proceeds of
$200.0 million or less. 

  
 102 













 To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and, if applicable, other debt that is pari
passu with the Notes in right of payment, tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuers may use any remaining Excess Proceeds (“Declined Proceeds”) for any purpose not otherwise prohibited
under this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Issuers shall select the
Notes and such debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment tendered
with adjustments as necessary so that no Notes or such debt that is pari passu with the Notes in right of payment will be purchased in part in an unauthorized denomination. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds
that resulted in the Asset Sale Offer shall be reset to zero (regardless of whether there are any remaining Excess Proceeds upon such completion). Upon consummation or expiration of any Asset Sale Offer, any remaining Net Cash Proceeds shall not be
deemed Excess Proceeds and the Issuers may use such Net Cash Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture. An Asset Sale Offer may be made at the same time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement
or waiver of this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees (but the Asset Sale Offer may not condition tenders on the delivery of such consents). 

(d) Pending the final application of any Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.10, the holder of such Net Cash Proceeds may apply
such Net Cash Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Cash Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture. 

(e) The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations
thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of
this Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall be deemed not to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof. 

Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates. (a) On and following the Effective Date, the Issuer will not, and will not permit
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $50.0
million, unless: 
 (1) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its
relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; and 

  
 103 













 (2) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate
Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $100.0 million, a resolution adopted by the majority of the board of directors of the Issuer approving such Affiliate Transaction and
set forth in an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section 4.11(a). 

(b) The provisions of Section 4.11(a) will not apply to the following: 

(1) transactions between or among the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(2) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.07 hereof (including any payments that are exceptions to the definition of
Restricted Payments set forth in clauses (I) through (IV) of Section 4.07(a)) and the definition of “Permitted Investments”; 

(3) the payment of reasonable and customary fees and compensation paid to, and indemnities and reimbursements and employment
and severance arrangements provided on behalf of or for the benefit of, current or former officers, directors, employees, members of management or consultants of the Issuer, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent
companies; 
 (4) transactions in which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the
Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its
relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; 

(5) any agreement or arrangement as in effect as of the Issue Date, and any transaction pursuant thereto or contemplated
thereby, or any amendment, modification or supplement thereto or replacement thereof (so long as any such amendment, modification, supplement or replacement is not disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect when taken as a whole as
compared to the applicable agreement or arrangement as in effect on the Issue Date as reasonably determined by the Issuer in good faith); 

(6) (a) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services that are Affiliates,
in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the Issuer, or are on terms at least as
favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party or (b) payments to or from, and transactions with, any joint venture partner or joint venture or Unrestricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary
course of business or consistent with past practice; 

  
 104 













 (7) the sale or issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock)
of the Issuer to any director, officer, employee or consultant of the Issuer, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent companies; 

(8) sales of accounts receivable, or participations therein, or Securitization Assets or related assets in connection with any
Qualified Securitization Facility; 
 (9) (a) loans or advances or guarantees in respect thereof (or cancellation of
loans, advances or guarantees) to any future, present, or former director, officer, employee, member of management, or consultant (or the estate, heirs, family members, spouse, former spouse, domestic partner, or former domestic partner of any of
the foregoing) of the Issuer, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent companies or otherwise made on behalf of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are, in each case, approved by the Issuer in good
faith, and (b) payments to, and transactions with, any future, present, or former director, officer, employee, member of management or consultant of the Issuer, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent
companies pursuant to any management equity plan or stock option plan or any other management or employee benefit plan or agreement or any stock subscription or shareholder agreement that is, in each case, approved by the Issuer in good faith; and
any employment agreement, stock option plan and other compensatory arrangement (and any successor plan thereto) and any supplemental executive retirement benefit plan or arrangement with any such director, officer, employee, member of management, or
consultant that is, in each case, approved by the Issuer in good faith;

indirect parent company of the Issuer) and its Subsidiaries pursuant to tax sharing agreements among the Issuer (and any such direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer) and its Subsidiaries; 

(11) any guarantee by any direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor that

 (12) any transaction with a Person that would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely
because the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries directly or indirectly owns an Equity Interest in or otherwise controls such Person;

 (15) any contribution to the Capital Stock of the Issuer; 

(16) transactions between the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person that is an Affiliate of the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary solely because a director of such Person, any of its Subsidiaries or any direct or indirect parent company of such Person is also a director of the Issuer, any of its Subsidiaries, or any direct or direct parent company of the
Issuer; provided that, such director abstains from voting as a director of the Issuer, such Restricted Subsidiary, or such parent company of the Issuer, as the case may be, on any such transaction; 

  
 105 













 (17) transactions with Affiliates solely in their capacity as holders of
Indebtedness or Equity Interests of the Issuer, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent companies, so long as such transaction is with all holders of such class (and there are non-Affiliate holders) and such Affiliates are
treated no more favorably than all other holders of such Indebtedness or Equity Interests generally; 
 (18) pledges of
Equity Interests of any Unrestricted Subsidiary; 
 (19) the Transactions, all transactions in connection therewith
(including the financing thereof and the entry into and performance of the Transaction Agreements), and the payment of Transaction Expenses. 

Section 4.12 Liens. On and following the Effective Date, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur or assume any Lien that secures obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee of Indebtedness, on any asset, property or right of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, unless either (a) in
the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and related Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens; or (b) in the case of Liens securing Indebtedness other
than Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and related Guarantees are equally and ratably secured, except that nothing in this paragraph shall apply to or restrict Permitted Liens. 

Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall provide by its terms that such Lien
shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (a) the release by the holders of the Indebtedness described in the preceding paragraph of their Lien on the property or assets of the Issuer or any Subsidiary
Guarantor (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under such Indebtedness (except upon foreclosure or default of such Indebtedness)), (b) any sale, exchange or transfer to any Person other than the Issuer or any
Guarantor of the property or assets secured by such Lien, or of all of the Capital Stock held by the Issuer or any Guarantor in, or all or substantially all the assets of, any Subsidiary Guarantor creating such Lien, in each case, in accordance with
the terms of this Indenture, (c) payment in full of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes, or (d) a defeasance or discharge of the Notes in accordance with Article VIII or Article XI hereof. 

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such
Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of
interest, the accretion of accreted value, amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, accretion or amortization of original issue discount of liquidation preference, and increases in the
amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness. 

  
 106 













 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.12, (x) a Lien need not
be incurred solely by reference to one category of Permitted Liens but may be incurred under any combination of such categories (including in part under one such category and in part under any one or more of such other such categories) and
(y) in the event that a Lien (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of such categories, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may divide and/or classify, or at any later time re-divide and/or reclassify, such Lien (or any
portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.12 and the definition of “Permitted Liens.” 

Section 4.13 Company Existence. Subject to Article V hereof, and except in connection with the Merger, the Issuer shall do or
cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its company existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational
documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries (other than the Co-Issuer), if the Issuer in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to change their respective organizational forms. 

Section 4.14 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. (a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuer has previously
sent a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Sections 3.07 and 3.10 hereof, the Issuers shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (a “Change of
Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase, subject
to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, except to the extent that the Issuer has exercised its rights to redeem all
the outstanding Notes pursuant to Sections 3.07 and 3.10 hereof, the Issuers shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee and Paying Agent, to each Holder at the address of
such Holder appearing in the Note Register or otherwise in accordance with the Applicable Procedures with the following information: 

(1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that all Notes properly tendered
pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment by the Issuers; 
 (2) the purchase price and the
purchase date, which will be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), except in the case of a conditional Change of Control Offer made in advance of a
Change of Control in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 4.14; 
 (3) that any Note not properly tendered
will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest; 

  
 107 













 (4) that, unless the Issuers default in the payment of the Change of Control
Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such
Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the paying agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third
Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered
Notes and their election to require the Issuer to purchase such Notes; provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the fourth Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, an electronic
transmission, or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased; 

(7) that Holders (other than Holders of a Global Note) whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes
and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of any Note must be equal to at least $200,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; 

(8) if such notice is sent prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, a statement that the Change of Control Offer is
conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control and, if applicable, a statement that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until such time as the Change of Control shall have occurred, or that
such purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event the Change of Control shall not have occurred by the Change of Control Payment Date, or by the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed; and 

(9) the other instructions, as determined by the Issuers, consistent with this Section 4.14 described hereunder, that a
Holder must follow. 
 The notice, if delivered electronically, mailed or caused to be mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be
conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice as provided herein or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for purchase shall not affect the
validity of the proceedings for the purchase of any other Note. 
 The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the
Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any
securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall be deemed not to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue
thereof. 

  
 108 













 (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent permitted by law,

 (1) accept for payment all Notes issued by it or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control
Offer; 
 (2) have deposited with the Paying Agent by 11:00 a.m. (New York Time) an amount equal to the aggregate Change of
Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered; and 
 (3) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the
Registrar for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuers. 

(c) The Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the
Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn
under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) in connection with or in contemplation of any such Change of Control, the Issuers (or any Affiliate thereof) have made an offer to purchase (an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Notes
validly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and have purchased all Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Alternate Offer. Additionally, the Issuers will not be required to make a
Change of Control Offer if the Issuers have previously issued a notice of redemption for all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.07 or 3.10 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may
be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer, and the Change of Control
Payment Date may be extended automatically until such Change of Control occurs. A Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may be made at the same time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture,
the Notes and/or Guarantees (but the Change of Control Offer may not condition tenders on the delivery of such consents). 
 (d) Other than
as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof, and references therein to “redeem,”
“redemption” and similar words shall be deemed to refer to “purchase,” “repurchase” and similar words, as applicable. 

Section 4.15 Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries. On and following the Effective Date, the Issuer
shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, other than a Guarantor or the Co-Issuer, to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities unless such Restricted Subsidiary within 45 days of such guarantee executes and
delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit E hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary. 

  
 109 













 The Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise
required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor. In addition, the Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer to guarantee the Notes, and, for the avoidance of doubt, any direct or indirect
parent company of the Issuer that may guarantee the Notes in the future shall not be subject to any of the covenants or restrictions of this Indenture. Any guarantee of the Notes provided by any direct or indirect parent company of the Issuer may be
released at any time in the Issuer’s sole discretion. 
 Section 4.16 Suspension of Covenants. 

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both of the Rating Agencies and (ii) no
Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”) then, beginning on
that day (the “Suspension Date”) and continuing until the Reversion Date, hereof, Section 4.08 hereof, Section 4.09 hereof, Section 4.10 hereof, Section 4.11 hereof, Section 4.15 hereof and clause
(4) of Section 5.01(a) hereof shall not be applicable to the Notes (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”). 

(b) During any period that the Suspended Covenants have been suspended, the Issuers may not designate any of their Subsidiaries as Unrestricted
Subsidiaries pursuant to the second sentence of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” 
 (c) In the event that the Issuer
and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) the Notes do not carry an Investment
Grade Rating from at least one Rating Agency, then the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture with respect to events occurring on or after the Reversion Date unless and
until there shall be a new Suspension Date. The period between a Suspension Date and a Reversion Date is referred to in this Section 4.16 as a “Suspension Period.” The Guarantees of the Guarantors will be suspended during the
Suspension Period. Additionally, upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event, the amount of Excess Proceeds from Net Cash Proceeds shall be reset to zero. 

(d) During any Suspension Period, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be entitled to incur Liens to the extent provided for in
Section 4.12 hereof (including Permitted Liens) and any Permitted Liens that refer to one or more Suspended Covenants shall be interpreted as though such applicable Suspended Covenant(s) continued to be applicable during the Suspension Period
(but solely for Section 4.12 hereof). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any reinstatement of the Suspended Covenants,
no action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries prior to such reinstatement will give rise to a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture with respect to the Notes; provided that (1) with
respect to Restricted Payments made after such reinstatement, the amount of Restricted Payments made will be calculated as though Section 4.07 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period; (2) all Indebtedness
incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension 

  
 110 













 
Period will be classified to have been incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.09(b)(3); (3) all Liens incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been incurred
under clause (7) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”; (4) any Affiliate Transaction entered into after such reinstatement pursuant to all agreements and arrangements entered into during any Suspension Period shall be
deemed to be permitted pursuant to Section 4.11(b)(5) hereof; (5) any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to take any action described in clauses (1) through (3) of
Section 4.08(a) hereof that becomes effective during any Suspension Period shall be deemed to be permitted pursuant to Section 4.08(b)(1) hereof; and (6) no Subsidiary of the Issuer shall be required to comply with Section 4.15
hereof after such reinstatement with respect to any guarantee entered into by such Subsidiary during any Suspension Period. 
 In addition,
for purposes of clause (3) of Section 4.07(a) hereof, all events set forth in such clause (3) occurring during a Suspension Period shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the amount of Restricted Payments the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary is permitted to make pursuant to such clause (3). 
 On and after each Reversion Date, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries
will be permitted to consummate the transactions contemplated by any contract entered into during the Suspension Period, so long as such contract and such consummation would have been permitted during such Suspension Period. 

(e) The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of the occurrence of any Covenant Suspension Event and any Reversion Date; provided
that such notification shall not be a condition for the suspension of the Suspended Covenants to be effective; provided further that the Trustee shall be under no obligation to inform Holders of the occurrence of any Covenant Suspension Event
or Reversion Date.

(b) The Successor Company, if not the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as applicable, will succeed to, and be substituted for, the Issuer or the
Co-Issuer, as applicable, under this Indenture and the Notes and in such event the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as applicable, will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes.

whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or is created after the issuance of the Notes, if both: 

  
 115 













 (A) such default either results from the failure to pay any principal of
such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods) or relates to an obligation other than the obligation to pay principal of any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the
holder or holders of such Indebtedness causing such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; and 
 (B) the
principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), or the maturity of which

 (ii) that appoints
a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of such Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that taken together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), or for all or

 and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive
days; 
 (8) the Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary shall for any reason cease to be in full force and effect or be
declared null and void or any responsible officer of any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, as the case may be, denies that it has any further liability under its Guarantee or gives notice to such effect, other than by reason of the
termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture; 
 (9) [reserved]; 

(10) [reserved]; or 

(11) failure by the Issuer (a) to comply with any material term of the Escrow Agreement that is not cured within 10 days
after receipt of written notice from the Escrow Agent, the Trustee or holders representing 30% or more of the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding (with a copy to the Trustee), (b) to consummate the Special Mandatory Redemption as
described in Section 3.11 or (c) to comply in any material respect with Section 4.18 (it being understood that this clause (11) shall be of no further force or effect after the Effective Date). 

Section 6.02 Acceleration. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (6) or (7) of
Section 6.01 hereof) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee may, by notice to the Issuers, or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, in
each case, declare the principal, premium, if any, interest, and any other monetary obligations on all the then-outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately; provided that, so long as any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under
this Indenture as part of the Senior Credit Facilities shall be outstanding, no such acceleration shall be effective until the earlier of: 

  
 117 













 (1) acceleration of any such Indebtedness under the Senior Credit
Facilities; or 
 (2) five Business Days after the giving of written notice of such acceleration by the Trustee or any Holder
to the Issuers and the administrative agent with respect to the Senior Credit Facilities. 
 Upon the effectiveness of any declaration of
acceleration, the principal and interest on the Notes shall be due and payable immediately. The Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if in the best judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the interests of the Holders of
the Notes. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (6) or (7) of
Section 6.01 hereof, all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without further action or notice. 
 In the event of
any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of Section 6.01 hereof, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled,
waived, and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose: 

(1) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; 

(2) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such
Event of Default; or 
 (3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured. 

Section 6.03 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to
collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay
or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. 

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by written
notice to the Trustee (with a copy to the Issuers; provided that any waiver or rescission under this Section 6.04 shall be valid and binding notwithstanding the failure to provide a copy of such notice to the Issuers) may on behalf of
the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture (except a continuing Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note held by a
non-consenting Holder) (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or Change of Control Offer) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences (except if such rescission would conflict with any judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 

  
 118 













 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the then-outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any
direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such
directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 6.06
Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 6.07 hereof, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 

(1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 

(2) Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

 (3) such Holder has offered the Trustee indemnity, security, and/or prefunding reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee
against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the
receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
then-outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 
 Notwithstanding
anything in this Indenture to the contrary, a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default or notice of acceleration with respect to the Notes may not be given by the Trustee or the holders
of the Notes (or any other action taken on the assertion of any Default) with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to holders of the Notes, more than two years prior to such notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction
to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default or notice of acceleration (or other action). 
 A Holder may not use this Indenture to
prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any action is unduly prejudicial to such Holders).


  
 119 













 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Note, or to bring suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, no amendment to, deletion of, or waiver with respect to any of the covenants or
provisions of Article III or Article IV hereof shall be deemed to impair or affect any rights of Holders to receive payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes (provided such amendment, deletion or waiver is made or given
in accordance with Article IX hereof). 
 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and
interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
 Section 6.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.
If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder,
then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the Issuers, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the
Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted. 
 Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies
Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07 hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders
is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article VI or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders
may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any
judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors
appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any 

  
 120 













 
custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof.
To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding,
shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding
whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 

Section 6.13 Priorities. If the Trustee or any Agent collects any money pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the
money in the following order: 
 (i) to the Trustee or any Agent (other than the Issuer or its Subsidiaries), their agents
and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee or any Agent and the costs and expenses of collection; 

(ii) to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and 

(iii) to the Issuers or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct including a Guarantor, if applicable.
The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.13. 

Section 6.14 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess
reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a suit
by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes. 

  
 121 













 ARTICLE VII 

TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01
Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

(i) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need
perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 

(ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are
specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of
mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (i) this paragraph does not limit
the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01; 
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment
made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved in a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a
direction received by it pursuant to Article VI hereof. 
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this
Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01. 
 (e) The
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of the Notes unless the Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity, security and/or prefunding,
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, against any loss, liability, claim, or expense. 

  
 122 













 (f) Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the Trustee or Paying Agent may agree in writing with the Issuer. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. 

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person.
The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make
such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuers and the Restricted Subsidiaries, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuers and shall incur no liability or
additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may
require an Officer’s Certificate of an Issuer or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The
Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in reliance thereon. 
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the
misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or
omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
 (e)
Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from an Issuer shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of such Issuer. 

(f) None of the provisions of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability,
financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or
liability is not assured to it. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any matter (including any Default or Event of
Default) unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice thereof is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee from an Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes, or from any
Holder, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 
 (h) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special,
indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

(i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to,
and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each Agent (other than the Issuer or any Subsidiary acting as Agent), custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

  
 123 













 (j) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the
performance of its powers and duties hereunder. 
 (k) The permissive right of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture
shall not be construed as an obligation or a duty to so, unless so specified herein. 
 (l) The Trustee will not be liable to the Holders if
prevented or delayed in performing any of its obligations or discretionary functions under this Indenture by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or regulatory authority or by any circumstances beyond its
control. 
 (m) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to do anything which, in its opinion, may be illegal or contrary to
applicable law or regulation. 
 (n) The Trustee may retain counsel at the expense of the Issuers to assist it in performing its duties under
this Indenture. The Trustee may consult with such counsel, and the advice or opinion of such counsel relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken,
omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 
 (o) The Issuers and the
Agents acknowledge and agree that in the event of a Default or Event of Default, the Trustee may, by notice in writing to the Issuers and the Agents, require that the Agents (other than to the extent the Issuer or a Subsidiary is acting as an agent)
act as agents of, and take instructions exclusively from, the Trustee. Prior to receiving such written notice from the Trustee, the Agents shall be agents of the Issuers and need have no concern for the interests of the Holders. 

(p) The Trustee may request that the Issuers deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of
officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture or the Notes. 
 Section 7.03 Individual
Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or any Affiliate of the Issuers with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.10 hereof. 

  
 124 













 Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for
and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers’ direction
under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in
the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 

Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, the Trustee shall electronically deliver or mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default within 90 days after it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been waived or cured. Except in the case
of a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default if and so long as it determines in good faith that withholding the notice is in
the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 
 Section 7.06 May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Agent, or any other agent of
the Issuers or of the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not
the Trustee, Agent, or such other agent; provided, however, that, if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. 

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuers shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its
acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. In the event of being
requested by the Issuers to undertake duties which the Trustee reasonably determines to be of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the normal duties of the Trustee, or in the event the Trustee is obligated to take actions under
Article VI hereof, the Issuers shall pay to the Trustee additional reasonable remuneration. The Issuers shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all disbursements, advances and expenses properly incurred or made by it in addition to the
compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the properly incurred compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees, agents and any
predecessor trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents for, and hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including properly incurred attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it
in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder (including the properly incurred costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (including this
Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuers or any Guarantor, or liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee
shall notify the Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek 

  
 125 













 
indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers shall not relieve the Issuers or the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers shall defend the claim and the Trustee may
have separate counsel and the Issuers shall pay the properly incurred fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuers nor any Guarantor need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability, claim, or expense incurred by the
Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without
its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 The obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under this
Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.12 hereof, to secure the payment obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors in this
Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that money or property held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(6) or (7) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee in this Section 7.07,
including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and by each agent (including the Agents), custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee or Agents. A resignation or removal of the Trustee or an Agent and appointment of a successor
Trustee or successor Agent, as the case may be, shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s or successor Agent’s, as the case may be, acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. The Trustee or an Agent may
resign in writing at any time by so notifying the Issuers. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee or an Agent by so notifying the Trustee, such Agent and the Issuers, as the case may be, in
writing. The Issuers may remove the Trustee and any Agent, as the case may be, if: 
 (A) the Trustee fails to comply with
Section 7.10 hereof; 
 (B) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with
respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
 (C) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee, an Agent
or their respective property; 
 (D) the Trustee or an Agent becomes incapable of acting; or 

  
 126 













 (E) the Trustee is not in compliance with TIA Section 310(b);
provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuers
are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met. 
 If the Trustee or an Agent
resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee or an Agent for any reason, the Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be. Within one year after the successor Trustee or Agent, as the case
may be, takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, to replace the successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, appointed by the Issuers.

 If a successor Trustee or Agent does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee or Agent resigns or is removed,
(i) the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, the Issuers or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or
Agent, at the expense of the Issuers or (ii) the retiring Trustee or Agent may appoint a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, at any time prior to the date on which a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, takes office;
provided that such appointment shall be satisfactory to the Issuers. 
 If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has
been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee, and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

A successor Trustee or Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, and
to the Issuers. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or Agent shall become effective, and the successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee or Agent, as the case
may be, under this Indenture. The successor Trustee or Agent shall electronically deliver or mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee or Agent shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee or Agent to the
successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee or Agent pursuant to
this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee or Agent. 

Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. If the Trustee or an Agent consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all
or substantially all of its corporate trust, paying agent, transfer agent or registrar business, as the case may be, to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may
be. 

  
 127 













 Any corporation into which the Trustee or an Agent for the time being may be merged or
converted shall, on the date when such merger, conversion, consolidation, sale or transfer becomes effective and to the extent permitted by applicable law, be a successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be, under this Indenture without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Indenture. After the effective date all references in this Indenture to that Trustee or Agent shall be deemed to be references to that corporation. 

Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of England and Wales, Luxembourg, or the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power and which is recognized as a corporation which customarily
performs such corporate trustee roles and provides such corporate trustee services in transactions similar in nature to the offering of the Notes as described in the Offering Memorandum. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND
COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuers may, at their option
and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof applied to all outstanding Notes and all obligations of the Guarantors with respect to the Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article VIII.

 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding
Notes and Guarantees and all Events of Default cured on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers shall be deemed to have paid and
discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in
(a) and (b) of this Section 8.02 (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes), and to have satisfied all its other obligations under the Notes and this Indenture including that of the
Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same) and to have cured all then-existing Events of Default, except for the following provisions which shall survive
until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a) the rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04 hereof; 

(b) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of such Notes, mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; 

  
 128 













 (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the Agents, and the
Issuers’ obligations in connection therewith; and 
 (d) this Section 8.02. 

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the
prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
 Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Issuers’
exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations
under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15 and 4.17 hereof, clauses (4) and (5) of Section 5.01(a), Sections 5.01(c) and 5.01(d) hereof with respect to
the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any
direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that
the Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to all outstanding Notes and the related Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall
have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to
any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified in this Section 8.03, the remainder of this Indenture
and such Notes and Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) (solely with respect to the covenants that are released upon a Covenant Defeasance), 6.01(4), 6.01(5), 6.01(6) (solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer but not with respect to
the Issuers), 6.01(7) (solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer but not with respect to the Issuer) and 6.01(8) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default. 

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be conditions to the application of either
Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Notes: 
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with
respect to the Notes: 
 (1) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or an agent of the Trustee, in trust, for
the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in United States dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, a nationally recognized investment bank or a nationally recognized appraisal or valuation firm, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the Notes to the stated
maturity date or 

  
 129 













 
to the Redemption Date, as the case may be, of such principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a
particular Redemption Date; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the
Trustee or an agent of the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit as of the date of redemption (any such amount, the “Applicable Premium Deficit”) only
required to be deposited with the Trustee or an agent of the Trustee on or prior to the redemption date; provided further that any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee
simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption; 

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that,
subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, 
 (A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the
United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or 
 (B) since the original issuance of the Notes, there has been a change
in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for
U.S. federal income tax purposes, as applicable, as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance
had not occurred; 
 (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax
on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(4) no Event of Default (other than that resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any
similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; 

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under,
the Senior Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from any borrowing of
funds to be applied to make such deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 

  
 130 













 (6) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditor of the Issuer, any Guarantor or others; and 

(7) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which may be
subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Opinion of Counsel required by clause (2) of this Section 8.04 with respect to Legal Defeasance
need not be delivered if all of the Notes theretofore delivered to the Registrar for cancellation (x) have become due and payable or (y) will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer. 

Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to
Section 8.06 hereof, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including any Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of
such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Issuers shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes and the related
Guarantees. 
 Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time
to time upon the request of the Issuers any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, a nationally recognized
investment bank or a nationally recognized appraisal or valuation firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof
that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

  
 131 













 Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuers. Subject to any applicable abandoned property
law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by any Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and
premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to such Issuer on its request or pursuant to applicable law or (if then held by such Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look
only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the applicable Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. 

Section 8.07 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or U.S. Government
Obligations in accordance with Section 8.05 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ and the
Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to
apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.05 hereof; provided that, if any Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, such Issuer shall be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of the Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE
IX 
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders. Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may
amend or supplement this Indenture, any Guarantee, and/or the Notes without the consent of any Holder: 
 (1) to cure any
ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency; 
 (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place
of certificated Notes; 
 (3) to comply with Section 5.01 hereof; 

(4) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders; 

(5) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that does not adversely affect
the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder in any material respect; 
 (6) to add covenants for the benefit of
the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor; 
 (7) to provide for the issuance
of Additional Notes in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 

  
 132 













 (8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under this
Indenture of a successor Trustee or a successor Paying Agent hereunder pursuant to the requirements hereof; 
 (9) to provide
for the issuance of exchange notes or private exchange notes, which are identical to exchange notes except that they are not freely transferable; 

(10) to add a Guarantor or co-obligor under this Indenture or to release a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture; 
 (11) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes to any provision of the
“Description of the Unsecured Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum; 
 (12) to amend the provisions of
this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including to facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes; provided that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not
result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes; 

(13) to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant any other Lien in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of Holders, as security
for the payment and performance of all or any portion of the Notes, in any property or assets; 
 (14) to provide for the
succession of any parties to this Indenture (and other amendments that are administrative or ministerial in nature); or 

(15) to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary. 

Upon the request of the Issuers, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.05 hereof (subject to the last
sentence of Section 9.05 hereof), the Trustee shall join with the Issuers and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate
agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall have the right, but not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor an Officer’s Certificate shall be required in connection with the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the
Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit E hereto. 
 Section 9.02
With Consent of Holders. Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes, and the Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least a
majority in principal amount of the Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and
6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of 

  
 133 













 
Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes).
Section 2.08 hereof and Section 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02. 

Upon the request of the Issuers, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders as
aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects any such parties’ own rights, duties or immunities
under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case any such party may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. 

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, waiver, or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, no amendment to, or deletion of, any of the covenants described under Article IV or Section 5.01 hereof
shall be deemed to impair or affect any rights of Holders to receive payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes. 

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders affected thereby
a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or
waiver. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of each Holder representing 90% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then outstanding, no amendment, supplement or consent may: 
 (1) reduce the principal amount of such Notes whose Holders
must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any
such Note or alter or waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes (other than provisions relating to (i) notice periods (to the extent consistent with applicable requirements of clearing and settlement systems) for
redemption and conditions to redemption and (ii) Section 4.10 and Section 4.14 hereof); 
 (3) reduce the rate
of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note; 
 (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of
principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and a waiver of the payment default that resulted
from such acceleration, or in respect of a covenant or provision contained in this Indenture or any Guarantee which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders; 

  
 134 













 (5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated therein; 

(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders to
receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; 
 (7) make any change in these amendment and
waiver provisions; 
 (8) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; 

(9) contractually subordinate the Notes to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor; or 

(10) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the Guarantees of any Significant Subsidiary in any manner adverse
to the Holders. 
 Section 9.03 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a
consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note.
However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver
becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a
record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or
their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No
such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been obtained. 

Section 9.04 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or
waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or
waiver. 
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment,
supplement or waiver. 

  
 135 













 Section 9.05 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any
amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of such party. In executing any amendment, supplement or
waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, upon request, and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.03 hereof, an Officer’s
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment or supplement is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the valid and binding obligation of the Issuers and any
Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor an Officer’s Certificate
will be required for the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture. 
 Section 9.06
Additional Voting Terms; Calculation of Principal Amount. All Notes issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters (as to which any Notes may vote) as one class. Determinations as to whether Holders of the
requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent shall be made in accordance with this Article IX. 

ARTICLE X 
 GUARANTEES 

Section 10.01 Guarantee. Upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, and from and after the Effective Date, the Escrow Issuer shall
cause each Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that guarantees the Senior Credit Facilities to execute and deliver a supplemental indenture to this Indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto pursuant to which each such Restricted
Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor. Subject to this Article X, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered
by the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent and to the Trustee, the Agents and their successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, or the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or
thereunder, that: (a) the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest
on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee, or any Agent hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case
of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same promptly. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of
collection. 

  
 136 













 The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional,
irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any
judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor (other than payment in full of all of the obligations of the Issuer under
this Indenture or under the Notes). Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuers, any right to require a proceeding first against the
Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by full payment of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture or by release in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture. 
 Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the
Trustee, any Agent, or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01. 
 If any Holder, any Agent, or the Trustee is
required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuers or the Guarantors, then any amount paid either to the Trustee, such
Agent, or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 Each Guarantor
agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between
the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI
hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as
the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantees. 
 Until released in accordance with
Section 10.06 hereof, each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuers for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuers become insolvent or make an
assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuers’ assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time payment of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,”
“fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be
reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 

  
 137 













 In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 The Guarantee
issued by any Guarantor shall be a general unsecured senior obligation of such Guarantor and shall be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor. 

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any
kind or nature. 
 Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder,
hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be
limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive
contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article X, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in
an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery. To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby
agrees that this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit E hereto) shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its authorized officers or other representatives. 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding
the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes. 
 If an officer whose signature is on this Indenture (or a
supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit E hereto) no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent authenticates the Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth
in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 
 If required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Issuers shall cause any Restricted Subsidiary
to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article X, to the extent applicable. 

  
 138 













 Section 10.04 Subrogation. Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of
Holders of Notes against the Issuers in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01 hereof; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled
to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Issuers under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full. 

Section 10.05 Benefits Acknowledged. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the
financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 

Section 10.06 Release of Guarantees. A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and
discharged, and shall thereupon terminate and be of no further force and effect, and no further action by such Guarantor, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee, upon: 

(1) any sale, exchange, disposition, or transfer (by merger, consolidation, dividend, distribution, or otherwise) of
(a) the Capital Stock of such Guarantor, after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary, or (b) all or substantially all the assets of such Guarantor, in each case, made in compliance with Section 4.10(a)(1)
and Section 4.10(a)(2) hereof; 
 (2) the release or discharge of the guarantee by such Guarantor of Indebtedness under
the Senior Credit Facilities, except a discharge or release by, or as a result of, payment under such guarantee; 
 (3) the
designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with Section 4.07 hereof and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”; 

(4) upon the merger or consolidation of any Guarantor with and into the Company, the Co-Issuer or another Guarantor that is the
surviving Person in such merger or consolidation, or upon the liquidation of such Guarantor following the transfer of all or substantially all of its assets to the Company, the Co-Issuer or another Guarantor; or 

(5) the exercise by the Issuers of the Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option in accordance with
Article VIII hereof or the discharge of the Issuers’ obligations under this Indenture in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. 

The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the release, discharge or termination of a Guarantee in accordance with this
Section 10.06; provided that no such notification shall be a condition for the release, discharge or termination of a Guarantee to be effective; provided further that the Trustee shall be under no obligation to inform Holders of
the occurrence of the release, discharge or termination of a Guarantee. Upon any event or circumstance giving rise to a release of a Guarantee as specified above, the Trustee shall, at the sole cost and written request of the Issuers, without
recourse, representation or warranty, execute any documents reasonably requested by the Issuers in order to evidence or effect such release. 

  
 139 













 ARTICLE XI 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect as to the
Notes when either: 
  

	 	(1)	 all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been
replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has heretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Registrar for cancellation; or 


  

	 	(2)	 (A) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Registrar for cancellation have become due and payable by
reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the
Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuers, and the Issuers or any Guarantor have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee or an agent of the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders,
cash in United States dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not
theretofore delivered to the Registrar for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; provided that, upon any redemption that requires the payment of the Applicable Premium, the
amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee or an agent of the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any
Applicable Premium Deficit only required to be deposited with the Trustee or an agent of the Trustee on or prior to the redemption date; provided further that any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate
delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption; 



(B) no Event of Default (other than that resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit or any
similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) with respect to this Indenture or the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall
occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer
or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each
case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 

  
 140 













 (C) the Issuers have paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under
this Indenture; and 
 (D) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee or an agent of the Trustee to
apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at or prior to maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be. 
 In
addition, the Issuers must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been
satisfied; provided that any such counsel may rely on an officer’s certificate as to matters of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing subclauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) of clause (2) of this
Section 11.01). 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to subclause (A) of clause (2) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 hereof shall survive. 

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders. 

Section 11.02 Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as
its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government
Obligations in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the
Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that, if the Issuer has made any payment
of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government
Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ESCROW ARRANGEMENTS 

Section 13.01 Escrow Accounts. Pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), to be dated
as of the Issue Date, among the Escrow Issuer, the Trustee and Citibank, N.A., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), (i) the gross proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be deposited into an escrow account with the Escrow
Agent (the “Escrow Account”) and (ii) the Escrow Issuer will deposit (or cause to be deposited) into the Escrow Account an amount in cash sufficient, together with the gross proceeds from the sale of the Notes, to fund a
Special Mandatory Redemption of the Notes resulting from a Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger Event occurring on June 2, 2021 (collectively, and together with any other property from time to time held by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow
Account, the “Escrowed Property”). The Escrow Agreement will provide further that, until either the Effective Date or a Special Mandatory Redemption occurs, on the second (2nd) day of each calendar month (commencing
June 2, 2021) the Escrow Issuer will deposit (or cause to be deposited) into the Escrow Account an amount in cash (in each case, as calculated by the Escrow Issuer in accordance with this Indenture) sufficient, together with amounts already in
the Escrow Account, to fund a Special Mandatory Redemption of the Notes resulting from a Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger Event occurring on the earlier of (i) one calendar month after such date of deposit and (ii) five Business Days
after the Outside Date; provided that if any deposit required by this Section 13.01 would be due on a date that is not a Business Day, such deposit shall be made on the preceding Business Day. The Escrow Issuer will grant to the Trustee,
on behalf of itself and the holders of the Notes, a first-priority security interest in the Escrow Account and Escrowed Property. 

Section 13.02 Release of Escrow Property. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, upon delivery by the Escrow Issuer to the Escrow Agent
and the Trustee, not later than the Outside Date, of an officer’s certificate (in the form and substance as set forth in the Escrow Agreement) instructing the Escrow Agent to release the Escrowed Property and certifying that the following
conditions (collectively, the “Escrow Release Conditions”) have been or, substantially concurrent with the release of the Escrowed Property will be, satisfied: 

 

	 	(1)	 the transactions which upon consummation thereof will result in the Separation and Distribution are being
initiated, and it is anticipated that the Separation and Distribution will be consummated promptly (which may be on the day, or Business Day, following the Effective Date) on or following the release of funds from the Escrow Account;



  

	 	(2)	 there being no Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.01(6) or Section 6.01(7) hereunder;



  

	 	(3)	 the completion of the Assumption and, as soon as commercially practicable thereafter, the Merger; and




  
 142 














	 	(4)	 the term loan lenders for the “term loan B” facilities under the Senior Credit Facilities have
funded, or substantially concurrently will be funding, the term loans thereunder in an aggregate principal amount of (i) $3,000 million in respect of the U.S. dollar denominated facility and (ii) €750 million in respect of the
Euro denominated facility, in each case less any applicable discounts, fees and expenses, 


 the funds in the Escrow
Account shall be released to the Escrow Issuer or its designee pursuant to payment instructions provided by the Escrow Issuer (the date on which such funds are released, the “Escrow Release Date”). 

Any excess funds remaining in the Escrow Account after the Special Mandatory Redemption and payment of any fees and expenses of the Trustee
and Escrow Agent will be released to the Escrow Issuer or its designee pursuant to payment instructions provided by the Escrow Issuer. Upon release of the Escrowed Property from the Escrow Account, the security interest granted in favor of the
Trustee and the Escrow Agent, shall automatically be released. 
 Section 13.03 Consummation of the Assumption. To consummate
the Assumption, on the Effective Date, the Escrow Issuer shall cause each of the Company and the Co-Issuer to execute and deliver a supplemental indenture to this Indenture substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. 

Section 13.04 Amendment of Escrow Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein (including Article IX) to the contrary, no provisions
of the Escrow Agreement (including, without limitation, those relating to the release of the Escrowed Property) may be waived or modified in any manner, when taken as a whole, materially adverse to the Holders without the written consent of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes outstanding. To the extent such provisions relate to the Escrow Issuer’s obligation to redeem the Notes in a Special Mandatory Redemption, no provisions of the Escrow Agreement or this
Indenture may be waived or modified in any manner materially adverse to the Holders without the written consent of each such Holder. However, the Escrow Agreement may be amended without the consent of any other Person to conform to the description
thereof in the “Description of the Unsecured Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum. 
 This Article XIII is subject to the
terms of the Escrow Agreement, and in the event of a conflict between this Article XIII and the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agreement shall control. For avoidance of doubt, this Article XIII (other than this sentence) shall no longer apply after
the Assumption is consummated.

 [BACK OF NOTE] 

5.125% Senior Note due 2031 

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 

1. Interest. Organon Finance 1 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note
at a rate per annum set forth below from April 22, 2021 until maturity. The Issuers will pay interest on this Note semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year, commencing on October 30, 20215 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day. The Issuers will make each interest payment to the Holder of record
of this Note on the immediately preceding April 15 and October 15 (each, a “Record Date”). Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from
and including April 22, 2021. The Issuers will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate then applicable to this
Note; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the rate then applicable to
this Note. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
 Interest on this Note will accrue
at the rate of 5.125% per annum and be payable in cash. 
 2. Assumption. Upon the Assumption, all of the obligations of Organon
Finance 1 LLC will be assumed by Organon & Co., a Delaware corporation, as Issuer, and Organon Foreign Debt Co-Issuer B.V., a Dutch private limited company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid), as Co-Issuer. For
purposes hereof, references to the “Issuer” prior to the Assumption refer to Organon Finance 1 LLC and on and subsequent to the Assumption refer to each of Organon & Co. and Organon Foreign Debt Co-Issuer B.V. (which are
collectively referred to as the “Issuers”; provided that prior to the Assumption, references to the “Issuers” shall be deemed to refer to Organon Finance 1 LLC, as the context may require). 

3. Method of Payment. The Issuers will pay interest on this Note to the Person who is the registered Holder of this Note at the close of
business on the Record Date (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if this Note is cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the
Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payment of interest will be made at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Issuers, payments of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at
their addresses set forth in the Note Register of Holders; provided that all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to Notes represented by Global Notes registered in the name of or held by the Depositary (or its
nominee) will be made through the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the registered Holder or Holders thereof. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as
at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

 5. Indenture. The Notes were issued under an Indenture, dated as of April 22, 2021 (the
“Indenture”), among Organon Finance 1 LLC, with obligations to be assumed by Organon & Co., as Issuer, and Organon Foreign Debt Co-Issuer B.V., as Co-Issuer, and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of
notes of the Issuers designated as 5.125% Senior Notes due 2031. The Issuers shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 4.09 of the Indenture. The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture
(collectively referred to herein as the “Notes”) shall be treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all terms and provisions in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for
a statement of such terms and provisions. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 

6. Optional Redemption. 

(a) At any time prior to April 30, 2026, the Issuers may on one or more occasions redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon notice in
accordance with Section 3.03 of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of
redemption (each date on which a redemption occurs, a “Redemption Date”), subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 

(b) On and after April 30, 2026, the Issuers may on one or more occasions redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon notice in accordance
with Section 3.03 of the Indenture, at the applicable redemption price (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the
applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 30 of each of the

 (c) In addition, prior to April 30, 2024, the Issuers may, at their option, and on one
or more occasions, redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture (including any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture after the Issue Date) at a redemption price equal to 105.125% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date, with funds in an aggregate amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings of the Issuers or any direct or indirect parent company of either of the Issuers after the Effective Date, to the extent such net
cash proceeds are contributed to such Issuer; provided that (1) at least 60% of the total of (A) the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture on the Issue Date and (B) the aggregate principal
amount of any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture after the Issue Date remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption; and (2) each such redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of closing of each such
Equity Offering. 
 (d) In connection with any tender offer for the Notes (including any Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer), if
Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Issuers, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Issuers, purchases all
of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice (provided that such notice is not given more than 30 days following
such purchase date) to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of the Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 

(e) Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph 6 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture.
Notice of any redemption or purchase, whether in connection with an Equity Offering, other transaction or otherwise, may be given prior to the completion thereof, and any such notice may, unless otherwise provided in the Indenture, at the
Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. If a redemption or purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state
that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the Redemption Date or purchase date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice was sent) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Issuers in
their sole discretion) or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date or purchase date, or by the Redemption Date or
purchase date as so delayed. In addition, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price or purchase price and performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption or purchase may be performed by
another Person. 

  
 A-7

(2) Agreement to Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees, jointly and severally with all existing Guarantors (if any), to
unconditionally guarantee the Issuers’ obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in Article X of the Indenture and to be bound by all other applicable provisions of
the Indenture and the Notes and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a Guarantor under the Indenture. 
 (3) No Recourse
Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator, member or stockholder of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors (including the Guaranteeing Subsidiary) under the
Notes, any Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting Notes waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.
