 Section 1.05    Limited Condition
Transaction. 
 (a)    Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, when (i) calculating the
availability under any basket, ratio or other financial test herein, (ii) determining whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result from any action, or (iii) determining compliance with any other
condition precedent to any action or transaction, in each case of clauses (i) through (iii) in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence
or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments), the date of determination of such basket, ratio or other financial test, whether any Default or
Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, or the satisfaction of any other condition precedent, shall, at the option of the Company (the Company’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited
Condition Transactions, a “Transaction Election”), be deemed to be the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice or
similar event) (any such date, the “Transaction Test Date”) and such baskets, ratios or other financial tests, absence of defaults, satisfaction of conditions precedent and other provisions shall be calculated on a pro forma basis

and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable period for purposes of determining the ability to consummate any such Limited Condition Transaction (and not for

Limited Condition Transaction and related transactions (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted
Payments) are permitted hereunder and (y) such baskets or ratios, absence of Default or Event of Default, satisfaction of conditions and other provisions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of the Limited Condition Transaction or
related transactions solely for the purpose of determining whether such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder; provided, further, that if the Company has made a Transaction Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then,
in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to any other Limited Condition Transaction or otherwise on or following the relevant Transaction Test Date and prior to the consummation of such Limited
Condition 

  
 40 













 
Transaction, unless and until such Limited Condition Transaction has been abandoned (or revoked via an Officer’s Certificate) or such definitive agreement has expired or been terminated
prior to consummation thereof, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or
issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens and Restricted Payments) have been consummated. 

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Trustee shall have no responsibility, nor shall it have any liability

Company’s compliance with any other condition precedent to any action or transaction, in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, any actions or transactions related thereto, or otherwise. 

ARTICLE 2 
 THE NOTES 

Section 2.01    Form and Dating. 

(a)    General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a
part of this Indenture and the Company the Guarantors 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. 

(b)    Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will 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 will 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 will represent such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the
aggregate principal amount of outstanding 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 appropriate, 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 will be made by the Trustee 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. 

(c)    Global Notes. 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 will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S
Global Note that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream.

 Section 2.02    Execution and Authentication. 

At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Company by manual, facsimile, PDF attachment or other electronically transmitted signature.

 If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be
valid. 
 A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence
that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an
Officer of the Company (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including any Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any
time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Company pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 hereof. 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company 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 an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the
Company. 
 Section 2.03    Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or
more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any
additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to
appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global
Notes. 
 Section 2.04    Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit
of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on, the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company 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 Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other
than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying
Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

  
 42 













 Section 2.05    Holder Lists. 

The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of
all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of
such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes. 
 Section 2.06    Transfer
and Exchange. 
 (a)    Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as
a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor
Depositary. All beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if: 

(1)    the Depositary (A) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as
Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary; 

(2)    the Company, at its option but subject to the Depositary’s requirements, notifies the Trustee
in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of the Definitive Notes; or 

(3)    there has occurred and is continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and the
Depositary notifies the Trustee in writing of its decision to exchange the Global Notes for Definitive Notes. 
 Upon the occurrence of any
of the preceding events in (1), (2) or (3) above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and
2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of,
and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b)
or (c) hereof. 
 (b)    Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and

restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as
applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described
in this Section 2.06(b)(1).

in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(1) above, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either: 

(A)    both: 

(i)    a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and

the Participant account to be credited with such increase; or 
 (B)    both: 

(i)    a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and 

(ii)    instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person
in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above; 
 Upon satisfaction of all of the
requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s)
pursuant to Section 2.06(h) hereof. 
 (3)    Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another
Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the
requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and the Registrar receives the following: 
 (A)    if the
transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the 144A Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; and 

(B)    if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global
Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof. 

  
 44 













 (4)    Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests
in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or
transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and the Registrar receives the
following:

when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to this Section 2.06(b)(4). 

Beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form

 If any such exchange or transfer from a Definitive Note to a beneficial interest is effected pursuant to

one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of Definitive Notes so transferred. 

(e)    Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Definitive Notes. Upon request by a Holder of Definitive Notes

the Securities Act, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications, certificates and Opinion of Counsel required by item (3) thereof, if applicable.

 (g)    Legends. The following legends will appear on all Global
Notes and Definitive Notes issued under this Indenture unless specifically stated otherwise in the applicable provisions of this Indenture. 

(1)    Private Placement Legend. 

(A)    Except as permitted by subparagraph (B) below, each Global Note and each Definitive Note (and
all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall bear the legend in substantially the following form: 
 “THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, U.S.
PERSONS, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE HOLDER (1) REPRESENTS THAT (A) IT IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT) (A “QIB”) OR (B) IT IS NOT A U.S. PERSON, IS NOT ACQUIRING THIS NOTE FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF A U.S. PERSON AND IS ACQUIRING THIS NOTE IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE

INDENTURE RELATING TO THE MANNER OF SUCH TRANSFER (THE FORM OF WHICH CERTIFICATE WILL BE ATTACHED AS AN EXHIBIT TO THE INDENTURE). AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS “OFFSHORE TRANSACTION,” “UNITED STATES” AND “U.S. PERSON” HAVE
THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY RULE 902 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(D) OR (E) ABOVE, THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH
LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

Definitive Note issued pursuant to subparagraphs (b)(4), (c)(3), (c)(4), (d)(2), (d)(3), (e)(2) or (e)(3) of this Section 2.06 (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) will not bear the Private Placement Legend. 

(2)    Global Note Legend. Each Global Note will bear a legend in substantially the following form:

 “THIS GLOBAL NOTE IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS NOTE) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (1) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.06 OF THE INDENTURE, (2) THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE

 UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR NOTES IN DEFINITIVE FORM,
THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR
DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY. UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK) (“DTC”), TO THE ISSUER OR THE AGENT FOR
REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO.
OR SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN
INTEREST HEREIN.” 
 (h)    Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial
interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or beneficial interests in other Global Notes, or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will
be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take
delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by
the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in
another Global Note, such other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 

  
 51 













 (i)    General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

 (1)    To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company will execute and the Trustee
will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the Registrar’s request. 

(2)    No service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder
of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes
or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.14 and 9.05 hereof). 

(3)    The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 

(4)    All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global
Notes or Definitive Notes will be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or
exchange. 
 (5)    Neither the Registrar nor the Company will be required: 

(A)    to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes for a period of 30 days prior to the
mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed; 
 (B)    to register the transfer of or to
exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part; 

(C)    to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date and the next succeeding
interest payment date; 
 (D)    to register the transfer or exchange of a Note tendered and not
withdrawn in connection with a Change of Control Offer, an Asset Sale Offer or other tender offers; or 

(E)    to register the transfer or exchange of a Note between a record date and the next succeeding
interest payment date. 
 (6)    Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note,
the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes,
and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

(7)    The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.02 hereof. 
 (8)    All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to
be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile or electronically including by PDF. 

  
 52 













 (9)    The Trustee shall have no 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 transfers between or among Depositary,
Participants or Beneficial Owners of interests 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. 

(10)    The Trustee shall have no responsibility for the actions or omissions of the Depositary or any
other depositary or clearinghouse, or the accuracy of the books and records of the Depositary or any other depositary or clearinghouse. 

Section 2.07    Replacement Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Note, the Company will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is
sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge for expenses in replacing a
Note. 
 Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture
equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08    Outstanding Notes. 

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for
cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee 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 Company or an Affiliate of the Company 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. 

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 Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or
maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will 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 Company or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the
purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded. 

  
 53 













 Section 2.10    Temporary Notes. 

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order,
will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without
unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Holders
of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 2.11    Cancellation. 

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes
surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy the canceled Notes
(subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered by the Trustee to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that have been paid or
that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.12    Defaulted Interest. 

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner. At the Company’s
election provided in writing to the Trustee, the Company may pay 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 Company will
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. The Company will fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date; provided that no
such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and
at the expense of the Company) will send or cause to be sent to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 

Section 2.13    CUSIP Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP in notices 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 and that reliance may be placed only on the
other identification numbers printed on the Notes and any such repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT 

Section 3.01    Notices to Trustee. 

If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it must furnish to the
Trustee, at least five Business Days prior to the giving of notice of a redemption (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate setting forth: 

(1)    the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur; 

(2)    the redemption date; 

(3)    the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed; and 

(4)    the redemption price (if then determined and otherwise the method of determination). 

Section 3.02    Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption as follows: 

(1)    if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of
the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or 
 (2)    if the Notes are
not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a Note in global form will be selected by such method as the DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or
successor is the trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection). 
 In the event of partial redemption by lot,
the particular Notes to be redeemed will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. 

The Trustee will promptly notify the Company 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 will be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, except if all Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding
amount of such Notes held by such Holder shall be redeemed. 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. 

Notices of redemption will be sent in accordance with the procedures of the DTC at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the
redemption date, to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (or, in the case of Notes held in book-entry form, by electronic transmission), except that optional redemption notices may be delivered more than 60 days prior
to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 12 hereof. 

  
 55 













 The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state: 

(1)    the redemption date; provided that Notes called for redemption under different provisions of
this Indenture may have different redemption dates; 
 (2)    the redemption price (if then determined
and otherwise the method of determination); 
 (3)    if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion
of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon
cancellation of the original Note; 
 (4)    the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

(5)    that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption
price; 
 (6)    that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes
called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7)    the paragraph of the
Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; 

(8)    that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if
any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 
 (9)    any conditions precedent to the
redemption. 
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the
Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof requests that the Trustee give such notice and sets forth the information to be stated in such notice
as provided in the preceding paragraph. 
 Section 3.04    Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is delivered in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price, unless the redemption is subject to a condition precedent that is not satisfied or waived. Any redemption or notice of redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions
precedent. 
 If such redemption is so subject to satisfaction or waiver of one or more conditions precedent, the notice shall describe each
such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption 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 by the redemption date as so delayed. In addition, the Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and
performance 

  
 56 













 
of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person designated by the Company in such notice; provided that any such payment or performance
occurs in accordance with this Indenture and no such designation shall relieve the Company from making such payment or performing such obligations if such other Person so designated shall fail to do the same in accordance with this Indenture. 

The notice of redemption, if delivered or mailed in the 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 shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. 

Section 3.05    Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

Prior to 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time (or such later time as may be agreed to by the Paying Agent or Trustee), on any redemption or purchase date,
the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will
promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or
purchased. 
 If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest
will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or accepted for purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued
and unpaid interest 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 or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of
the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid
principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes. 
 Section 3.06    Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the
Trustee will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. 

Section 3.07    Optional Redemption. 

(a)    At any time prior to June 1, 2024, the Company may on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes issued hereunder (including any Additional Notes) at a redemption price of 105.875% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date (subject to
the right of Holders of record on the relevant 

  
 57 













 
record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date), with an amount equal to all or a portion of the net cash proceeds of one or more
Equity Offerings; provided that: 
 (1)    at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes issued hereunder (including any Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries); and 

(2)    the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of each such Equity Offering. 

(b)    Prior to June 1, 2024, the Company may on one or more occasions redeem all or part of the Notes at a
redemption price equal to the sum of: 
 (1)    the principal amount thereof, plus 

(2)    the Make Whole Premium at the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not
including, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date). 

(c)    Except pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (e) of this Section 3.07, the Notes will not be redeemable at the
Company’s option prior to June 1, 2024. 
 (d)    On or after June 1, 2024, the Company may on one or
more occasions redeem all or part of the Notes at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including, the applicable redemption
date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date), if redeemed during the twelve month period beginning on June 1 of the
years indicated below: 
  

					
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
	 2024
	  	 	102.938	% 
	 2025
	  	 	101.469	% 
	 2026 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes
or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
 (e)    The Company may redeem all (but
not a portion of) the Notes when permitted by, and pursuant to the conditions in, Section 4.14(i) hereof 

(f)    Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through
3.06 hereof. 
 Section 3.08    Mandatory Redemption. 

(a)    Except as set forth in Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.14 hereof, the Company will not be required to make mandatory
redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes or to repurchase the Notes at the option of the Holders. 

  
 58 













 Section 3.09    Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. 

In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Company is required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, it will follow the procedures
specified below. 
 The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and all holders of Cash Flow Obligations containing provisions similar
to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more
than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”),
the Company will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such other Cash Flow Obligations (on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other Cash
Flow Obligations surrendered, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as
interest payments are made. 
 If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment
date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale
Offer. 
 Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will send written notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders. The
notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state: 

(1)    that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10
hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open; 
 (2)    the Offer Amount, the
purchase price and the Purchase Date; 
 (3)    that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will
continue to accrue interest; 
 (4)    that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note
accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue interest on and after the Purchase Date; 

(5)    that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have
Notes purchased in minimum denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; 

(6)    that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to
surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, a Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the
address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 
 (7)    that Holders will
be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the 

  
 59 













 
Offer Period, a telegram, electronic image scan, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a
statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
 (8)    that
Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 

On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent
necessary, the Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, and required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof, or if Notes in an aggregate principal amount less than the Offer Amount
allocated to the purchase of Notes in the Asset Sale Offer have been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such
Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days
after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee,
upon written request from the Company, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so
accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date.

 COVENANTS 

Section 4.01    Payment of Notes. 

The Company will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided
in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, holds as of 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the due date money deposited
by the Company in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. 

Section 4.02    Maintenance of Office or Agency.  

(a)    The Company will maintain in the City and State of New York, an office or agency (which may be an office of the
Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will send
prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof,
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

(b)    The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner 

  
 60 













 
relieve the Company of the obligation to maintain an office or agency in the City and State of New York for such purposes. The Company will send prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

Section 4.03    Reports.  

(a)    The Company will furnish or file with the Trustee, within 15 days after it files the same with the SEC, copies of
the annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K that the Company is required to
file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. 
 All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in
accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. For purposes of this Section 4.03, the Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports and information to, or filed such reports and information with, the
Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and prospective purchasers as required by this Section 4.03 if it has filed such reports or information with the SEC via EDGAR filing system or otherwise made such reports or information publicly available
on a freely accessible page on the Company’s website. 
 (b)    If, at any time, the Company is not subject to the
periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless file the reports specified in Section 4.03(a) hereof with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a
filing. The Company will not take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the Company will post the reports
referred to in Section 4.03(a) on its website within the time periods for a filer that is a “non-accelerated filer” that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the
SEC. 
 (c)    If the Company has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries and the assets or
operations of such Unrestricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole are material to the assets or operations of Company and all of its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by Section 4.03(a)
hereof will include an additional summary presentation, either on the face of the financial statements, in the notes thereto, or in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the
financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company. The requirement to provide additional
summary financial information required by this paragraph will be deemed satisfied if and when such information is posted on the website of the Company. 

(d)    In addition, if at any time the Company is not required to file with the Commission the reports required by this
Section 4.03 and does not voluntarily file such reports, the Company will furnish to the Holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under
the Securities Act. 
 (e)    The Company will hold and participate in conference calls with the Holders, Beneficial
Owners of the Notes, bona fide perspective investors, securities analysts and market makers to discuss the annual and quarterly financial information required to be furnished pursuant to this Section 4.03 no later than 10 Business Days after
distribution of such financial information, unless, in each case, the Company reasonably determines that to do so would conflict with applicable securities laws, including in connection with any pending offering of securities. The Company shall be
permitted to combine this conference call with any other conference call for other debt or equity holders or lenders. The Company shall, no later than 3 Business Days prior to the date of the conference calls required to be held in accordance with
this Section 4.03(e), announce the date and time of such conference calls and all information necessary to enable Holders and security analysts to obtain access to such calls. 

  
 61 













 (f)    The Trustee shall have no responsibility for the filing,
timeliness or content of such reports. Delivery of any such reports, information and documents to the Trustee shall be for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any
information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee shall be entitled to rely exclusively on an Officer’s
Certificate). The Trustee shall further not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Company’s compliance with their covenants hereunder or with respect to any reports or other documents filed with the SEC or
posted to any website. 
 (g)    Any failure to comply with this Section 4.03 shall be automatically cured when the
Company provides all required reports to the Holders or files all required reports with the SEC; provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders under Section 6.01 hereof if the principal of, premium, if any,
on, and interest on, the Notes have been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such acceleration has not been rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure. 

Section 4.04    Compliance Certificate; Notice of Default or Event of Default.  

(a)    The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after May 20 of each year, beginning with May 20,
2022, an Officer’s Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officer with a view to determining whether the
Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and
fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and are not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing all
such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Company is taking or propose to take with respect thereto). 

(b)    So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days of any Officer
of the Company becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default, its status and what actions the Company is taking or propose to take in respect thereof, but only to the
extent that such Default or Event of Default has not been cured by the end of such 30 day period. 

Section 4.05    Taxes.  

The Company will pay or discharge, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay or discharge, prior to delinquency, all material
taxes, assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate negotiations or proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment or discharge is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of
the Notes. 
 Section 4.06    Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.  

The Company and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or
in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and
each of the Guarantors (to the 

  
 62 













 
extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the
execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted. 

Section 4.07    Restricted Payments.  

(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: 

(1)    pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of the Company’s or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the
Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends, payments or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or payable to the
Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company); 
 (2)    purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or

 (3)    make any payment
on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, any Indebtedness that is contractually subordinated to the Notes or the Guarantees (excluding any intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company

of such payment, purchase, redemption, defeasance, acquisition or retirement; or 
 (4)    make any
Restricted Investment 
 (all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (1) through (4) above (other than any
exceptions thereto) being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), 
 unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such
Restricted Payment, 
 (I)    no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would
occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; 
 (II)    the Company would, at the time of such
Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) hereof; and 
 (III)    such
Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2) through (13) of Section 4.07(b) but
including any Restricted

time of such determination, plus 
 (b)    100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds and the fair
market value of any assets received by the Company after the date hereof as a contribution to its equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Company other than (i) Disqualified Stock or (ii) net cash proceeds
received from an issuance or sale of such Equity Interests to a Subsidiary of the Company or an employee stock ownership plan, option plan or similar trust to the extent such sale to an employee stock ownership plan, option plan or similar trust is
financed by loans from or Guaranteed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (unless such loans have been repaid with cash on or prior to the date of determination), plus 

(c)    the net cash proceeds and the fair market value of assets received by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company from (i) the disposition, sale, liquidation, retirement or redemption of all or any portion of any Restricted Investment made after the date hereof, net of disposition costs and repurchases and redemptions of such
Restricted Investments from the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, and repayments of loans or advances and releases of guarantees which constitute Restricted Investments by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries and (ii) the sale

Subsidiaries, to the extent such amounts have not been included in the calculation of Consolidated Net Income on or after the date hereof, plus 

(e)    the amount by which Indebtedness of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries is reduced on the
Company’s consolidated balance sheet upon the conversion or exchange (other than by a Subsidiary of the Company) of any such Indebtedness for Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company (less the amount of any cash, or the
fair market value of any other property (other than such Equity Interests), distributed by the Company upon such conversion or exchange and excluding the net cash proceeds from the conversion or exchange financed, directly or indirectly, using funds
borrowed from the Company or any Subsidiary), together with the net proceeds, if any, received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries upon such conversion or exchange, plus

 64 













 
such Investment, becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, an amount equal to the fair market value of the existing Investment in such Person that was previously treated as a Restricted
Payment. 
 (b)    The restrictions in Section 4.07(a) hereof will not prohibit: 

(1)    the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of any redemption within 60 days
after the date of its declaration or the giving of a redemption notice related thereto, as the case may be, if at the date of declaration or notice the payment would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture;

cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent (a) contribution (other than from a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) to the equity capital of the Company or (b) sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity
Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock); provided, however, that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value or
other Restricted Payment will be excluded (or deducted, if included) from the calculation under Section 4.07(a)(III) and will not be considered to be net cash proceeds from an Equity Offering for purposes of the “Optional Redemption”
provisions of this Indenture; 
 (3)    the payment, purchase, redemption, defeasance or other

any such purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value will be excluded (or deducted, if included) from the calculation of Section 4.07(a)(III); 

(6)    the purchase, repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of Equity
Interests deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options, warrants, incentives, rights 

  
 65

other acquisition or retirement for value of Equity Interests made in lieu of withholding taxes in connection with any exercise or exchange of stock options, warrants, incentives or rights to acquire Equity Interests; 

(7)    any purchase, redemption, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition for value of any Indebtedness

Notes validly tendered for payment in connection with the Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as the case may be; 

(8)    payments or distributions, in the nature of satisfaction of dissenters’ rights, pursuant to or
in connection with a consolidation, merger or transfer of assets that complies with the provisions of this Indenture applicable to mergers, consolidations and transfers of all or substantially all the property and assets of the Company;

the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment or the Restricted Investment proposed to be made or the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any Restricted Investment, assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 4.07 will be determined, in the case of amounts greater than $25.0 million, by a
majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution.

Restricted Subsidiaries may allocate all or any portion of such Restricted Payment among the categories described in clauses (1) through (14) of Section 4.07(b) hereof or Section 4.07(a) hereof (including categorization in whole or in
part as a Permitted Investment); provided that, at the time of such allocation, all such Restricted Payments, or allocated portions thereof, would be permitted under the various provisions of this Section 4.07; and provided
further that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may reclassify all or a portion of such Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in any manner that complies with this Section 4.07, and following such reclassification such
Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment shall be treated as having been made pursuant to only the clause or clauses of this Section 4.07 to which such Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment has been reclassified. 

(e)    For purposes of this Indenture, no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment
to any other Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis or by virtue of the fact that the holders of any secured Indebtedness have entered into
intercreditor arrangements giving one or more of such holders priority over the other holders in the collateral held by them. 

Section 4.08    Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

Initial ABL Facility and the Existing Convertible Notes Indenture) as in effect on the date hereof and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements or the
Indebtedness to which they relate; provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an officer of the Company,
not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such encumbrances and restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date hereof;

acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, and any amendments, restatements, modifications,
renewals, extensions, supplements, increases, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; provided that the encumbrances and restrictions in any such amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements, increases,
refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an officer of the Company, no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those in effect on the date of the acquisition; provided that, in the case of
Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was otherwise permitted to be incurred hereunder; 
 (5)    Capital Lease
Obligations, operating leases, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions on that property of the nature described in Section 4.08(a)(3)

(7)    Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the
agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an officer of the Company, not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the
Indebtedness being refinanced;

 (11)    any other agreement governing Indebtedness of
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is permitted to be incurred under Section 4.09 hereof and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements;
provided that either (a) such encumbrances or restrictions are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in this Indenture (with respect to other indentures) or the ABL Facility (with respect to other credit
facilities) or (b) such encumbrances or restrictions are ordinary and customary in light of the type of Indebtedness being incurred and the jurisdiction of the obligor and, in the case where such obligor is a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a
Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary, so long as such encumbrances or restrictions will not affect in any material respect the Company’s or any Guarantor’s ability to repay the Notes, in each case as determined in the reasonable good faith
judgment of an officer of the Company; 
 (12)    customary provisions contained in leases, sub-leases, licenses or sub-licenses and other agreements, in each case, entered into in the ordinary course of business or as is typical in the same or similar industries in
which the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries engage from time to time; 
 (13)    restrictions in
agreements or instruments that prohibit the payment or making of dividends other than on a pro rata basis; and 

(14)    arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness, and that
do not, individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof in any manner material to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.08, (1) the priority of any preferred stock in receiving dividends or
liquidating distributions prior to distributions being paid on common stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and (2) the subordination of loans or advances made to the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to other Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances. 

Section 4.09    Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.  

(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create,
incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), the Company will not issue any
Disqualified Stock, and the Company will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than a Guarantor) to issue any preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company and any Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including
Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary may issue preferred stock, if, for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding
the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock is issued, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma
application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 

  
 69 













 (b)    The provisions of Section 4.09(a) hereof will not prohibit
the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”) or the issuance of any Disqualified Stock or preferred securities described below: 

(1)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness
(including guarantees and letters of credit) under one or more Credit Facilities providing for revolving credit facilities (including asset based lending revolving credit facilities) and/or term loan facilities with lenders that include commercial
banks; provided that, (i) after giving effect to any such incurrence, the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness incurred under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum
potential liability of the Company and its Subsidiaries thereunder) and then outstanding does not exceed the greater of (a) $250.0 million and (b) the Borrowing Base and (ii) the aggregate principal amount outstanding under any such
Credit Facility not constituting an ABL Facility shall not exceed $250.0 million;

issuance by any Restricted Subsidiary of preferred stock, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of design, construction, installation, repair or improvement of property (real or personal),

under Section 4.09(a) hereof or clause (2) (excluding the Existing Convertible Notes), (3), (11) or (18) of this Section 4.09(b) or this clause (5); 

(6)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness
between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that:

expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations with respect to the Guarantee of such Guarantor; and 

(B)    (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness
being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is neither the Company nor a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company will be
deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); 

(7)    the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations under Hedging

with respect to letters of credit supporting such obligations (in each case other than an obligation for money borrowed); 

(10)    the issuance by any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Company or to any of its

(13)    Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company consisting of
self-insurance obligations, financing of insurance premiums, obligations to pay insurance premiums or take-or-pay obligations contained in supply arrangements incurred

including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to extend, refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (16); provided that after giving effect to any such incurrence, the principal

Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or a Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided, however, that the maximum assumable liability in respect of all such
Indebtedness incurred or assumed in connection with such disposition shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds including non-cash proceeds (the fair market value of such
non-cash proceeds being measured at the time received and without giving effect to any subsequent changes in value) actually received by the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such

giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or issuance (including pro forma effect to the application of the net proceeds therefrom), the greater of $50.0 million and 3.25% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets at such time.

 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt),
Disqualified Stock or preferred stock meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (20) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof, the Company will
be permitted to divide and classify (or later divide, classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09
(including in part pursuant to one or more clauses and/or in part pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof). Any Indebtedness under the Initial ABL Facility shall be considered incurred under Section 4.09(b)(1) hereof and may not be later
classified or reclassified pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof. 
 (c)    The accrual of interest, the accretion or
amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of
Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09; provided that, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of
the Company as accrued. Further, the accounting reclassification of any obligation of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as Indebtedness will not be deemed an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4.09. 

(d)    For purposes of determining any particular amount of Indebtedness, any guarantees, Liens or obligations with
respect to letters of credit, in each case, supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular amount, will not be included. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum
amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred pursuant to this Section 4.09 will not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, due solely to the result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies. 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. 
 Section 4.10    Asset
Sales. 
 (a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset
Sale unless: 
 (1)    the Company (or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives
consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and


  
 73 













 (2)    at least 75% of the aggregate consideration
received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Asset Sale, together with all other Asset Sales since the date hereof (on a cumulative basis) is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets. For purposes of this clause
(2), each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 
  

	 	(a)	 any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet
or in the footnotes thereto, or as would be shown on such balance sheet or footnotes if such liability was incurred subsequent to the date of such balance sheet), of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and
liabilities that are by their terms contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or any Guarantee) that (i) are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to an agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary from further liability, or (ii) are otherwise released, discharged or forgiven; 


  

	 	(b)	 any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from such
transferee that are, within 180 days after the Asset Sale, converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion; and 



 

	 	(c)	 any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or any
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 (x) $30.0 million and (y) 2.0% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale, with the fair market value of each item
of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value; and



 (3)    the Net Proceeds from any such Asset Sale of Notes Priority Collateral is
paid directly by the purchaser thereof to the Collateral Trustee to be held in a Collateral Account for application in accordance with this Section 4.10. 

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.10(a) hereof, the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries will not be required to cause any Net Proceeds to be held in a Collateral Account in accordance with Section 4.10(a)(3) hereof except to the extent the aggregate Net Proceeds from all Asset Sales of Notes Priority Collateral that
(x) are not held in a Collateral Account and (y) have not been previously applied in accordance with the provisions of the following paragraphs relating to the application of Net Proceeds from Asset Sales of Notes Priority Collateral,
exceed $25.0 million. 
 (c)    Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may apply such Net Proceeds at its option to any combination of the following: 

(1)    to repay Cash Flow Obligations; provided that if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
shall so repay any Cash Flow Obligations not consisting of Notes Obligations, the Company will equally and ratably reduce Cash Flow Obligations with respect to the Notes as 

  
 74 













 
provided under Section 3.07 through open-market purchases (provided that such purchases are not less than 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the
procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase at a purchase price not less than 100% of the principal amount thereof (provided that (i) such Cash Flow Obligations will be deemed repaid to the extent of the
amount of any such offer, whether or not accepted by the holders of such Cash Flow Obligations, and (ii) if the holder of any Cash Flow Obligations declines the repayment of such Cash Flow Obligations owed to it from such Net Proceeds, such
amount will be deemed repaid to the extent of the declined Net Proceeds); provided further, however, that to the extent such Net Proceeds constitute proceeds from the sale of (A) ABL Priority Collateral, such Net Proceeds may be applied
to repay obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement, and (B) assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, such Net Proceeds may be applied to repay Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor; or 

(2)    to acquire all or substantially all of the properties or assets of a Person primarily engaged in a
Permitted Business if, after giving effect to such acquisition, such Person is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; 

(3)    to acquire any Capital Stock of a Person operating a Permitted Business if, after giving effect to
such acquisition, such Person operating a Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; 

(4)    to make capital expenditures in respect of the Company’s or its Restricted Subsidiaries’
Permitted Business or make an Investment in Replacement Assets; or 
 (5)    to acquire other assets that
are used or useful in a Permitted Business or make an Investment in assets that will be used or useful in the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s business. 

The requirement of clause (2), (3), (4) or (5) of this Section 4.10(c) shall be deemed to be satisfied if a bona fide binding
contract committing to make the acquisition, purchase, Investment or expenditure referred to therein is entered into by the Company (or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with a Person other than an Affiliate of the Company) within the time period
specified in this Section 4.10(c) and such Net Proceeds are subsequently applied in accordance with such contract within 180 days following the date such agreement is entered into. Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the
Company may utilize such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
 (d)    Any Net Proceeds
from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section Section 4.10(c) hereof will constitute “Excess Proceeds” (it being understood that any portion of such Net Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase
Notes as described in Sections 4.10(c)(1) hereof shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is accepted). 

(e)    Within 10 Business Days after the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million (or, at the
Company’s option, on any earlier date or for any lesser amount), the Company will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) in accordance with the procedures of Section 3.09 to all Holders, and all holders of other Cash Flow
Obligations containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets, to purchase, prepay or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes and such
other Cash Flow Obligations (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The
offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest 

  
 75 













 
to, but not including, the date of settlement, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the
date of settlement, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after the consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this
Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Cash Flow Obligations tendered in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and the Trustee or agent for such other Cash Flow
Obligations shall select such Cash Flow Obligations to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a Note in global form will be selected by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such
nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection) but with such adjustments as necessary so that no Notes or other Cash Flow Obligations is purchased in part in an unauthorized denomination. Upon
completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 
 (f)    The Company will
comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each
repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10, the Company will comply with the applicable securities
laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance. 

Section 4.11    Transactions with Affiliates.  

(a)    The Company 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 or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or
guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company in an amount in excess of $15.0 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 

(1)    the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant
Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 

(2)    with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving
aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, the Company must obtain a Board Resolution of the Company certifying that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions has been approved by a majority of the
disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company. 
 (b)    The following items will not be deemed to be
Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof: 

(1)     any employment, equity award, equity option or equity appreciation agreement or plan, or any
consulting, service or termination agreement, or any customary indemnification arrangement or agreement, entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, and any payments or other awards made
pursuant to any of the foregoing; 
 (2)    transactions between or among any of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries or transactions between or among Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  
 76

(4)    transactions effected in accordance with the terms of the agreements in effect on the date hereof,
and any amendment or replacement of any of such agreements so long as such amendment or replacement agreement is, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an officer of the Company, not materially more disadvantageous to the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries than the agreement so amended or replaced as reasonably determined by the Company; 

(5)    customary compensation, indemnification and other benefits made available to current, former and
future officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, including reimbursement or advancement of
out-of-pocket expenses and provisions of officer’s and directors’ liability insurance; 

(6)    sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company to Affiliates of the
Company and any agreement that provides customary registration rights to the equity holders of the Company or any direct or indirect parent of the Company and the performance of such agreements; 

(7)    Restricted Payments that do not violate Section 4.07 hereof (including any payments that are
excluded from the definition of Restricted Payment and Restricted Investment) or Permitted Investments; 

(8)    in the case of contracts for the purchase or sale of Specified Products or activities or services
reasonably related thereto, or other operational contracts, any such contracts that are entered into in the ordinary course of business on terms substantially similar to those contained in similar contracts entered into by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries with third parties or otherwise on terms not materially less favorable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole than those that would be available in a transaction with an unrelated third party in the
reasonable determination of the Board of Directors of the Company or the senior management thereof; 

(9)    any guarantee by any direct or indirect parent of the Company of Indebtedness or other obligations
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (which Indebtedness or obligation is not prohibited hereunder); 

(10)    transactions with Affiliates solely in their capacity as holders of Indebtedness or Equity
Interests of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, so long as such transaction is with all holders of such class (and there are such non-Affiliate holders) and such Affiliates are treated no
more favorably than all other holders of such class generally; 
 (11)    transactions with customers,
clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services in the ordinary course of business on terms not materially less favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from a Person that is not an
Affiliate of the Company, as determined in good faith by the Company; 
 (12)    transactions or
agreements in which the Company 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 or agreement is fair to the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of Section 4.11(a)(1) hereof; 

  
 77 













 (13)    any contribution to the equity capital of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (14)    any transaction with any Person who is not an Affiliate
immediately before the consummation of such transaction that becomes an Affiliate as a result of such transaction; 

(15)    any transaction related to the Equity Interests of any Unrestricted Subsidiary; 

(16)    payments by the Company (or any other direct or indirect parent of the Company) or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to any tax sharing, allocation or similar agreement; and 

(17)    transactions permitted by, and complying with, the provisions of Section 5.01 hereof. 

Section 4.12    Liens.  

The Company will not, and will not permit any of the Guarantors to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause to become effective any Lien of
any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness or Attributable Debt upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, or upon any income or profits therefrom. 

Section 4.13    Organizational Existence.  

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its
corporate existence, and the corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other existence of each of the Guarantors, in accordance with their respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time); provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no
longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 

Section 4.14    Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.  

(a)    If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part
(equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in this Section 4.14. In the Change of Control Offer,
the Company will offer a payment in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the
date of settlement (the “Change of Control Settlement Date”), subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Change of Control
Settlement Date. 
 (b)    No later than 30 days following any Change of Control (or prior to the Change of Control if a
definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control), the Company will send a notice to each Holder and the Trustee electronically or by first class mail or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to 

  
 78 













 
repurchase Notes as of the Change of Control Settlement Date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 90 days from the date such notice is given,
pursuant to the procedures required by this Section 4.14 and described in such notice. 
 (c)    The Company will
comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the
repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable
securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such compliance. 

(d)     On or before the Change of Control Settlement Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment all
Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. Promptly thereafter on the Change of Control Settlement Date, the Company will: 

(1)    deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all
Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 
 (2)    deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 

(e)    The paying agent will promptly after the Change of Control Settlement Date mail or wire transfer to each Holder of
Notes properly tendered and so accepted the Change of Control Payment for such Notes (or, if all the Notes are then in global form, make such payment through the facilities of DTC), and the Trustee will authenticate and mail (or cause to be
transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided, however, that each new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. Any Note so accepted for payment will cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Settlement Date. 

(f)    This Section 4.14 will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable,
except as set forth in Section 4.14(g) and Section 4.14(h) hereof. 
 (g)    The Company will not be required
to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the time and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.14 applicable to a
Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, (2) a notice of redemption has been given for all of the Notes pursuant to pursuant to Section 3.07
hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price, (3) in connection with or in contemplation of any Change of Control, the Company has 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 has purchased all Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Alternate Offer or (4) the Notes have been satisfied and
discharged in accordance with Section 12.01 hereof. 
 (h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, subject to one or more conditions precedent, including but not limited to the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive


  
 79 













 
agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer is made. The closing date of any such Change of Control Offer made in advance of a
Change of Control may be changed to conform to the actual closing date of the Change of Control; provided that such closing date is not earlier than 30 days nor later than 90 days from the date the Change of Control Offer notice is sent as
set forth in Section 4.14(a) hereof. 
 (i)    In the event that in connection with any Change of Control Offer or
Alternate Offer, Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept such Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer and the Company (or any third party making such Change of Control Offer or Alternate
Offer in lieu of the Company) purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Company or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of
Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to, but not including, the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment
date that is on or prior to the redemption date). 
 Section 4.15    Additional Guarantees.  

If, after the date hereof, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is not already a Guarantor guarantees any Material Indebtedness of the
Company or any Guarantor, or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Excluded Subsidiary), if not then a Guarantor, incurs any Material Indebtedness under a Credit Facility, then in either case that Restricted Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by
executing a supplemental indenture in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto and delivering it to the Trustee within 30 days of the date on which it guaranteed or incurred such Indebtedness, as the case may be. Any such Guarantee shall be
subject to release as set forth in Article 11. Any Excluded Subsidiary need not become a Guarantor hereunder so long as it remains an Excluded Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture. 

Section 4.16    Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

(a)    The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to be an Unrestricted
Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be either an Investment made as of the time of the designation that will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under
Section 4.07(a) hereof or represent a Permitted Investment, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Subsidiary so designated otherwise meets the
definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
 (b)    The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any
Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such
Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the
four-quarter reference period, and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. 

  
 80 













 (c)    Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving effect to such designation and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation
complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an
Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of
such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Company will be in default thereunder. 
 Section 4.17    [Reserved]. 

Section 4.18    Covenant Suspension. 

(a)    If at any time (a) the rating assigned to the Notes by both S&P and Moody’s is an Investment Grade
Rating (or, if either such entity ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Company, the Notes also receive the equivalent investment grade credit rating from another “nationally-recognized statistical rating
organization” within the meaning of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder selected by the Company as a replacement agency) and (b) no Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the following provisions of this Indenture (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”): 

(1)    Section 4.07 (“Restricted Payments”); 

(2)    Section 4.08 (“Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted
Subsidiaries”); 
 (3)    Section 4.09 (“Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred
Stock”); 
 (4)    Section 4.10 (“Asset Sales”); 

(5)    Section 4.11 (“Transactions with Affiliates”); 

(6)    Section 4.16 (“Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries”); and 

(7)    Section 5.01(a)(4) (Clause (4) of paragraph (a) of “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of
Assets”). 
 (b)    After the foregoing covenants have been suspended, the Company may not designate any of its
Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
 (c)    Thereafter,
if either S&P or Moody’s (or such other replacement agency) downgrades the ratings assigned to the Notes below the Investment Grade Rating, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended
Covenants, subject to the terms, conditions and obligations set forth in this Indenture (each such date of reinstatement being the “Reinstatement Date”); provided, however, that no Default, Event of Default or breach
of any kind shall be deemed to exist or have occurred hereunder, the Notes or the Guarantees with respect to the foregoing suspended covenants based on, and neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary or Guarantor shall bear any liability for,
any actions taken or events occurring during the period the foregoing covenants were suspended, or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising prior to the date the foregoing covenants were reinstated, regardless of
whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. 

  
 81 













 (d)    On the date the foregoing covenants are reinstated, (1) all
Indebtedness incurred during the suspension period will be deemed to have been outstanding on the date hereof, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 4.09(b)(2) hereof, (2) all Liens, Investments, affiliate transactions and
consensual encumbrances or restrictions in existence at such time will be deemed to have been outstanding or existing on the date hereof and (3) the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero. Compliance with the Suspended
Covenants with respect to Restricted Payments made after the Reinstatement Date will be calculated in accordance with the terms of Section 4.07 hereof as though such covenant had not been in effect during the entire period of time that the
covenants were suspended and no Default will be deemed to have occurred solely by reason of a Restricted Payment made while that covenant was suspended. 

(e)    For purposes of Section 4.11 hereof, all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Company after the covenants have been suspended but prior to the Reinstatement Date will be deemed to have been entered into prior to the date hereof and permitted by Section 4.11(b)(4) hereof, and
for purposes of Section 4.08 hereof, all contracts entered into after the covenants have been suspended but prior to the Reinstatement Date that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant will be deemed to have been existing
on the date hereof. As a result, during any period in which the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants, the Holders will be entitled to substantially reduced covenant protection. The Company will provide
the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate stating that covenants have been suspended or reinstated.

Section 5.01    Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets. 

(a)    The Company may not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or
not the Company is the survivor); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless: 

(1)    either: (a) the Company is the survivor; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a Person organized or existing under the laws of the United States or any state of the United
States or the District of Columbia; 
 (2)    the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger (if other than the Company) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of the Company under the Notes, this Indenture and the Security Documents
pursuant to a supplement to this Indenture or other agreement expressly assuming such obligations in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; 

(3)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists;

 (4)    either: 

(a)    the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the
Company), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had
occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) hereof; or 

(b)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction and any related financing transactions on a
pro forma basis as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the
Company), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made, will be equal to or greater than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company immediately before such transactions; and

all or part of its properties and assets to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and the Company may merge with an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose of reorganizing the Company in a state of the United States or the District of
Columbia or for the sole purpose of forming or collapsing a holding company structure, in each case, without complying with Section 5.01(a)(4) hereof in connection with any such consolidation, merger or disposition. 

Section 5.02    Successor Issuer Substituted. 

Upon any consolidation or merger in which the Company is not the surviving entity or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, in each case, in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the surviving entity formed by such consolidation into or with which the Company is merged or the entity
to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such surviving
entity had been named as the Company in this Indenture, and thereafter (except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets), the Company will be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and
the Notes. 
 ARTICLE 6 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 

Section 6.01    Events of Default. 

(a)    Each of the following is an “Event of Default”: 

(1)    default for 30 consecutive days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes; 

  
 83 













 (2)    default in payment when due of the principal of,
or premium, if any, on the Notes; 
 (3)    failure by the Company to comply with the provisions of
Section 4.14 or Section 5.01 hereof; 
 (4)    failure by the Company for 180 days after
written notice by the Trustee or Holders representing 25% or more of the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding to comply with the provisions of Section 4.03 hereof; 

(5)    failure by the Company for 60 days after written notice by the Trustee or Holders representing 25%
or more of the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding to comply with any of their other agreements herein; 

(6)    default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which
there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries),
other than, in each case, Indebtedness owing to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date hereof, if that default: 

(a)    is caused by a failure to make any payment when due at the final maturity of such Indebtedness prior
to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness (a “Payment Default”); or 

(b)    results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated Maturity, 

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which
there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $30.0 million or more; provided, however, that if, prior to any acceleration of the Notes, any such Payment Default is cured or waived or any
such acceleration rescinded, or such Indebtedness is repaid, within a period of 10 Business Days from the continuation of such Payment Default beyond the applicable grace period or the occurrence of such acceleration, as the case may be, such Event
of Default and any consequential acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment or decree; 

(7)    failure by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company or group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Company that taken together (determined as of the most recent consolidated financial statements of the Company for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof) would constitute a Significant
Subsidiary of the Company to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $30.0 million (to the extent not covered by insurance by a reputable and creditworthy insurer as to which the
insurer has not disclaimed coverage), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days after such judgments have become final; 

(8)    the occurrence of any of the following: 

(a)    except as permitted by this Indenture or the relevant Security Documents, any Security Document
ceases for any reason to be fully enforceable in any material respect; provided that it will not be an Event of Default under this Section 6.01(a)(8)(a) if the sole result of the failure 


  
 84 













 
of one or more Security Documents to be fully enforceable in any material respect is that any Lien purported to be granted under such Security Documents on Collateral, individually or in the
aggregate, having a fair market value of not more than $30.0 million ceases to be an enforceable and perfected Lien, subject only to Permitted Liens; 

(b)    except as permitted herein or by the relevant Security Documents, any Lien for the benefit of the
Holders of the Notes purported to be granted under any Security Document on Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a fair market value in excess of $30.0 million ceases to be an enforceable and perfected Lien in any material
respect, subject only to Permitted Liens, and such condition continues for 60 days after written notice by the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee (after the Trustee or Collateral Trustee has received written notice of such cessation from the holders
of 25% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding) of failure to comply with such requirement; provided that it will not be an Event of Default under this Section 6.01(a)(8)(b) if such condition results from the
action or inaction of the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee; or 
 (c)    the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company, or any Person acting on behalf of any of them, denies or disaffirms, in writing, any material obligation of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary set forth in or arising under any Security Document for the benefit of
the Holders of the Notes; 
 (9)    the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a
Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together (determined as of the most recent consolidated financial statements of the Company for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under
Section 4.03 hereof), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 

(a)    commences a voluntary case, 

(b)    consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, 

(c)    consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property,

 (d)    makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or 

(e)    generally is not paying its debts as they become due; or 

(10)    a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: 

(a)    is for relief against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant
Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 

(b)    appoints a custodian of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant
Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together (determined as of the most recent consolidated financial statements of the Company for a fiscal quarter end provided as required under Section 4.03 hereof),
would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken
together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or 

  
 85 













 (c)    orders the liquidation of the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days. 

Section 6.02    Acceleration. 

(a)    In the case of an Event of Default arising from events specified in Sections 6.01(a)(9) or 6.01(a)(10) hereof, with
respect to the Company, any Significant Subsidiary of the Company or any group of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Company, all outstanding Notes will become due and
payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and
payable immediately by notice in writing to the Company specifying the Event of Default. 
 (b)    Holders of the Notes
may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct in writing the Trustee in its exercise of
any trust or power. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee must send to each Holder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. The Trustee, however,
may withhold notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default from Holders of the Notes if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal of, or interest or
premium, if any, on, the Notes. In addition, the Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if in the judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the interest of the Holders of the Notes. 

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 of, premium
on, if any, or interest, if any, 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 of a Note 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. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

Section 6.04    Waiver of Past Defaults and Rescission of Acceleration. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all
the Holders of Notes, rescind an acceleration of the maturity of the Notes or waive an existing Default or Event of Default and their respective consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of
principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase). Upon any such waiver or rescission, 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 or rescission shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 86 













 Section 6.05    Control by Majority. 

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct in writing the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee
determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes (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 may
involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 6.06    Limitation on Suits. 

Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no Holder of a Note 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 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 

(3)    such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4)    the Trustee does not comply
with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer, or provision if requested, of security or indemnity; and 

(5)    during such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request. 
 A Holder of
a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or
not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders). 
 Section 6.07    Rights of Holders of Notes to
Receive Payment. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of
principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), 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; provided that a Holder shall not have the right to institute any such suit for the enforcement of payment if and to the extent that the institution
or prosecution thereof or the entry of judgment therein would, under applicable law, result in the surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of the Lien of this Indenture upon any property subject to such Lien. 

  
 87 













 Section 6.08    Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or Section 6.01(a)(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 Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest, if any, 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    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 of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any
other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any 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 7.06 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 7.06 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

form of action. 
 (k)     The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice
references the Notes and this Indenture. 
 (l)     The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given
to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(p)    The provisions of this Section 7.02 shall survive satisfaction and discharge or the termination, for any
reason, of this Indenture and the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee or Collateral Trustee and the rights, protections and indemnities afforded the Trustee under this Indenture shall also apply to the Collateral Trustee. 

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 Company or any
Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the TIA) after a Default has occurred and is continuing, it must eliminate
such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. 

Section 7.04    Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee will 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 Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent 

  
 91 













 
other than the Trustee, and it will 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 or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee will send to Holders of Notes
a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so
long as it in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. 

Section 7.06    Compensation and Indemnity. 

(a)    The Company will pay to the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder), as agreed to in writing from time to time,
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 will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The
Company will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services as agreed to in writing by the parties. Such expenses will
include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 (b)    The
Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will indemnify the Trustee (acting in any capacity hereunder) including its officers, directors, employees, counsels and agents, for and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses,
damages, liabilities, actions, suits, fees or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the
costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.06) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the
Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, damage, liability, fees or expense may be attributable to its gross
negligence or willful misconduct as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company will not relieve
the Company or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Company or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable
fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 

(c)    The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.06 will survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee. 
 (d)    To
secure the Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.06, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal
of, premium or interest, if any, on, particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee. 

  
 92 













 (e)    When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an
Event of Default specified in clause (9) or (10) of Section 6.01(a) 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. 
 Section 7.07    Replacement of Trustee. 

(a)    A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the
successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.07. 
 (b)    The Trustee may
resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such resignation. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such removal. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 

(1)    the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09 hereof; 

(2)    the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to
the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
 (3)    a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee

Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. 
 (d)    If a successor Trustee does not take office
within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, at the Company’s expense, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (e)    If the Trustee, after written request by
any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.09 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(f)    A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the
Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its
succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.06 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.07, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.06 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. The retiring or removed
Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability for the action or inaction of any successor Trustee. 

  
 93 













 Section 7.08    Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

 ARTICLE 8 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 8.01    Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Company may at any time, at its option, evidenced by a Board Resolution, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied
to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. 
 Section 8.02    Legal
Defeasance and Discharge. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
Section 8.02, the Company and each of the Guarantors will, 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
(including the Guarantees) and cure all then existing Events of Default on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the
Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Guarantees), which will 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 clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Guarantees and this Indenture and to have cured all then outstanding Events of
Default (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 

(1)    the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, and
interest or premium, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof; 

(2)    the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.10 and 4.02
hereof; 
 (3)    the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the
Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; 

  
 94 













 (4)    this Article 8; and 

(5)    Section 3.07 hereof, to the extent that such Legal Defeasance is to be effected together with a
redemption. 
 Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding
the prior exercise of the option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
 Section 8.03    Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and each of the
Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13
(but only to the extent such Section relates to the preservation of the existence of any Guarantor), 4.14, 4.15 and 4.16 hereof and Section 5.01(a)(4) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth
in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will 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 will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting
purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will 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 will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the
Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(a)(3) through 6.01(a)(8) hereof will not
constitute Events of Default.

of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as
will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally-recognized investment banking firm, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants (solely in the case of amounts including non-callable Government
Securities), to pay the principal of, and interest and premium and interest, if any, on, the outstanding Notes on the date of fixed maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are
being defeased to the date of fixed maturity or to a particular redemption date;

an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions: 

(A)    the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a
ruling; or 
  

  
 95 













 (B)    since the date of this Indenture, there has been
a change in the applicable federal income tax law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall
confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to 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 an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain

occurred; 
 (4)    no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such
deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection
therewith); 
 (5)    such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or
violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the Notes Documents) to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries is bound (other than that resulting with respect to any Indebtedness being defeased from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar
and simultaneous deposit relating to such Indebtedness, and the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 

(6)    the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was
not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company or others; and 

(7)    the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel,
each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

 96 













 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
non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes will 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 the Company 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, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 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. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the
Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 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(a)(1)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 8.06    Repayment to Company. 

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

Section 8.07    Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government
Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 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 Company’s
and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent
is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on, any Note
following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 (13)    to provide for the succession of any parties to
the Security Documents (and other amendments that are administrative or ministerial in nature) in connection with an amendment, renewal, extension, substitution, refinancing, restructuring, replacement, supplementing or other modification from time
to time of any agreement in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the relevant Security Document; 

(14)    to add covenants for the benefit of the Holders or surrender any right or power conferred upon the
Company or any Guarantor; 
 (15)    to provide for the assumption by one or more successors of the
obligations of any of the Guarantors under this Indenture and the Guarantees; 
 (16)    to make any
change not adverse to the Holders of Notes in order to facilitate entry into an ABL Credit Agreement; and 

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

Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company 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 will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own
rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
 Section 9.02    With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

(a)    Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this
Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.14 hereof) and the Notes, the Guarantees and, subject to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement, the Security Documents with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, 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 Default in the payment of the principal of, premium or interest, if any, on the Notes, except a
payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes, the Guarantees or, subject to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement, the Security Documents may be waived
with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in
connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). 
 (b)    Upon the request of the
Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of
Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such


  
 99 













 
amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will
not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 
 (c)    It is not necessary for the consent of
the Holders of Notes under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

(d)    After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will send to
the Holders, or post on its website, a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such
amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by
the Company with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees or, subject to the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement, the Security Documents. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver
under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 

(1)    reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or
waiver; 
 (2)    reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any
of the provisions with respect to the redemption or repurchase of the Notes (other than provisions relating to Section 3.09, Section 4.10 or Section 4.14 hereof) provided that any amendment to the notice requirements may be
made with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes; 

(3)    reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note (other than with respect
to the minimum notice period required for any redemption made in accordance with the terms of this Indenture); 

(4)    waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any,
on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 

(5)    make any Note payable in currency other than that stated in the Notes; 

(6)    make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the
rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes (other than as permitted in clause (7) below); 

(7)    waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by
Section 3.09, Section 4.10 or Section 4.14 hereof); 
 (8)    release any Guarantor from
any of its obligations under its Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 

  
 100 













 (9)    make any change in the preceding amendment,
supplement and waiver provisions of clauses (1) through (8) of this Section 9.02. 
 (e)    In addition, any
amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of this Indenture or any Security Document that has the effect of releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens securing the Notes will require the consent of the Holders of at least
66-2⁄3% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. 

Section 9.03    [Reserved]. 

Section 9.04    Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Note 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 of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note 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 Company 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 9.05    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 Company in
exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee 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 will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

 Section 9.06    Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9, however, if the amendment or supplement
adversely affects the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to sign such amended or supplemental indenture. The Company may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until the Board of
Directors of the Company approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, in addition to the documents required
by Section 13.03 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such supplemental indenture is the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and any Guarantor or surviving Person, as applicable, enforceable against the Company and such Guarantor or surviving Person in accordance with its terms.

 ARTICLE 10 

COLLATERAL AND SECURITY 

Section 10.01    The Collateral.  

(a)    The Company and the Guarantors hereby confirm that the Collateral Trustee, and each Holder, by its acceptance of any
Notes and the Guarantees thereof, irrevocably consents and agrees that, pursuant to the Collateral Trust Agreement and the Security Documents, the Collateral Trustee shall hold the Liens on the Collateral (directly or through co-trustees or agents) on behalf and for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and the other Cash Flow Secured Parties, and the Trustee is hereby directed and authorized to (x) execute and deliver the
Collateral Trust Agreement in its capacity as Trustee and (y) authorize and direct the Collateral Trustee to execute and deliver the Collateral Trust Agreement, the Security Agreement, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, and the other Security
Documents in its capacity as such. The Collateral Trustee shall have the privileges, powers and immunities as set forth in the Collateral Trust Agreement and the other Security Documents. From and after the date hereof, the due and punctual payment
of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Guarantees thereof when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an interest payment date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise,
interest on the overdue principal of the Notes and the Guarantees thereof and performance of all other obligations under this Indenture, including, without limitation, the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors set forth in Sections 7.06 and
8.05 hereof, and the Notes and the Guarantees thereof and the other Notes Obligations and the other Cash Flow Obligations shall be secured by (i) first priority Liens and security interests on the Notes Priority Collateral as and to the extent
provided in the Security Documents and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) by second priority Liens and security interests in the ABL Priority Collateral as and to the extent provided in the Security Documents and the ABL Intercreditor
Agreement, which the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, have entered into prior to or simultaneously with the execution of this Indenture, and will be secured by all Security Documents hereafter delivered as required or permitted by
this Indenture, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents. 
 (b)    [Reserved] 

(c)    Each Holder, by its acceptance of any Notes and the Guarantees thereof, irrevocably consents and agrees to the
terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Trust Agreement and the other Security Documents (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of Collateral) as the same may be in effect or may be
amended from time to time in accordance with their terms, agrees to the appointment of the Collateral Trustee pursuant to the Collateral Trust Agreement and authorizes and directs the Trustee to execute and deliver the Collateral Trust Agreement and
perform its obligations and exercise its rights, powers and discretions thereunder in accordance therewith and to authorize and direct, on its behalf and that of the Holders, the Collateral Trustee to execute and deliver the Collateral Trust
Agreement, the other Security Documents and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and perform its obligations and exercise its rights, powers and discretions thereunder in accordance therewith. 

(d)    The Trustee and each Holder, by accepting the Notes and the Guarantees thereof, acknowledge that, as more fully set
forth in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Trust Agreement and the other Security Documents, the Collateral as now or hereafter constituted shall be held for the benefit of all the Holders, the Collateral Trustee and the Trustee and
the other Cash Flow Secured Parties, and that the Lien of the Security Documents in respect of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of 

  
 102 













 
the Trustee and the other Notes Secured Parties, the Holders and the other Cash Flow Secured Parties is subject to and qualified and limited in all respects by the ABL Intercreditor Agreement,
the Collateral Trust Agreement and the other Security Documents and actions that may be taken thereunder. 

Section 10.02    Maintenance of Collateral; Further Assurances.  

(a)    The Company and the Guarantors shall maintain the Collateral that is material to the conduct of their respective
businesses in good, and insurable operating order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. The Company and the Guarantors shall pay all real estate and other taxes (except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate
negotiations or proceedings), and maintain in full force and effect all material permits and insurance in amounts that insures against such losses and risks as are reasonable for the type and size of the business of the Company and the Guarantors as
determined in good faith by an Officer of the Company, except, in each case, where the failure to effect such payment or maintain such permits or insurance coverages is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders or is not commercially
available. 
 (b)    The Company and the Guarantors shall, at their sole expense, execute, file and record any and all
further documents, financing statements, continuation statements, agreements and instruments, and take all further action that may be required under the Security Documents, or that the Collateral Trustee or the Trustee may reasonably request, in
order to grant, create, preserve, continue, protect, perfect and maintain the validity and priority of the security interests and Liens created or intended to be created by the Security Documents in the Collateral. 

(c)    Without limiting the foregoing or any other requirement set forth in the Security Documents, the Company and each
Guarantor shall take all reasonably necessary actions as required by applicable law to maintain and pursue each application, to obtain the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of each of its material Patents, Trademarks and
Copyrights (now or hereafter existing), including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of noncontestability, except to the extent not prohibited hereby. It is understood that the materiality of the Patents,
Trademarks and Copyrights may change over time as business or technology may change and Company in its reasonable judgment may abandon or decline to register such Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights which are either deemed immaterial or no longer
deemed material to its business whether in scope, jurisdictional or geographical coverage, subject in each case to restrictions contained herein or in the Security Documents. Subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, each of the Company and the
Guarantors shall take such actions where it, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, determines that such action is appropriate, or if during the existence of an Event of Default, as the Holders shall deem appropriate (as directed to
the Collateral Trustee) under the circumstances to protect such Guarantor’s material Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights. 

Section 10.03    After-Acquired Property. 

Subject to Section 10.05, and to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, if the Company or any Guarantor acquires any property which is of a type
constituting Collateral under the Security Documents (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Assets), it may be required to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Collateral Trustee such documents, agreements
and instruments, and will take or cause to be taken such further actions as are required under this Indenture or the Security Documents (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages and other documents and
such other actions or deliveries of the type required hereby, as applicable), to vest in the Collateral Trustee a perfected security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in such after-acquired property and to have such after-acquired property
included as part of the Collateral, and thereupon all provisions of 

  
 103 













 
the Security Documents and this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such after-acquired property to the same extent and with the same force and effect. The
Collateral Trustee has no duty to monitor, and there can be no assurance that the Company will inform the Collateral Trustee of, the future acquisition of property that is of a type constituting Collateral. Accordingly, there can be no assurance
that the actions required to properly perfect a security interest in any such after-acquired property will be taken. If any U.S. registered Intellectual Property (other than Excluded Assets) is acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
that is a Guarantor after the Issue Date, the Company will on an annual basis, within thirty (30) days after the anniversary of the Issue Date immediately following such acquisition, take, and cause each Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to
take, such actions as shall be reasonably requested by the Collateral Trustee (or as directed in an Act of Parity Lien Debtholders (as defined in the Collateral Trust Agreement)) or are consistent with such actions as the Company and the Guarantors
are required to take in connection with the initial issuance of the Notes to grant and perfect such Liens, including the execution and filing, at the Company’s cost, of Intellectual Property security agreements with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable. 
 Section 10.04    Impairment of Security Interest.

 Except to the extent otherwise permitted by the Security Documents, the Company will not, and the Company will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, (i) take or omit to take any action which would materially adversely affect or impair the Liens in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders, and the other Cash Flow
Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, (ii) grant to any Person, or permit any Person to retain (other than the Collateral Trustee), any Liens in the Collateral, other than Permitted Liens or (iii) enter into any agreement that
requires the proceeds received from any sale of Collateral to be applied to repay, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire any Indebtedness of any Person in a manner that conflicts with this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees or the
Security Documents (but subject to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement as applicable). To the extent required by the Security Documents, the Company and each Guarantor will, at its sole cost and expense, execute and deliver all such
agreements and instruments as are necessary, or as the Trustee or the Collateral Trustee reasonably requests, to more fully or accurately describe the assets and property intended to be Collateral or the Obligations intended to be secured by the
Security Documents. 
 Section 10.05    Creation and Perfection of Certain Security Interests in the Collateral. 

(a)    Within 90 days following the Issue Date (as such date may be extended to the extent the Company certifies to the
Collateral Trustee that any such actions are not or cannot be completed within such timeframe as a result of the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic (including without limitation, as a result of any notary
services being unavailable) after the use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without undue burden or expense or risk to human health), 

(i)    the Company and the Guarantors shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Trustee the following documents, in each
case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Trustee: 
 (1)    with respect to
each of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts (in each case as defined in the Security Agreements) (other than Excluded Accounts) in existence on the Issue Date, deposit account
control agreements, securities account control agreements and commodity account control agreements, as applicable; and 

  
 104 













 (2)    with respect to the Intellectual Property of the
Company and the Guarantors in existence on the Issue Date (other than any Excluded Assets), Intellectual Property security agreements, in suitable form for filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright
Office, as applicable. 
 (ii)    The Company shall deliver a stock certificate representing 65% of the Equity Interests
in REG Canada, Inc. pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement, together with stock power executed in blank. 

(b)    Within 90 days (as such date may be extended to the extent the Company certifies to the Collateral Trustee that any
such actions are not or cannot be completed within such timeframe as a result of the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic (including without limitation, as a result of any notary services being unavailable)
after the use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without undue burden or expense or risk to human health) after the Issue Date (with respect to any Mortgaged Property owned as of the Issue Date), or after the acquisition of any Material
Real Property (with respect to each other Mortgaged Property), with respect to each Mortgaged Property the Collateral Trustee shall have received (i) counterparts of each Mortgage to be entered into with respect to each such Mortgaged Property
duly executed and delivered by the record owner of such Mortgaged Property and suitable for recording or filing in all filing or recording offices that may be necessary or determined desirable by the Collateral Trustee in order to create a valid and
enforceable Lien subject to no other Liens except Permitted Liens, at the time of recordation thereof together with such certificates, affidavits, questionnaires or returns as shall be required in connection with the recording or filing thereof to
create a Lien under applicable law, and such financing statements and any other instruments necessary to grant a mortgage Lien under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction, (ii) with respect to the Mortgage encumbering each such Mortgaged
Property, opinions of counsel regarding the enforceability, due authorization, execution and delivery of the Mortgages and such other matters customarily covered in real estate counsel opinions in each jurisdiction where Mortgaged Properties are
located and/or where the Company or Guarantor owning such Mortgaged Property is organized, as applicable, (iii) a policy or policies (or marked up title insurance commitment having the effect of a policy of title insurance) with respect to each
Mortgaged Property in an amount not less than the (x) the book value of each Mortgaged Property owned as of the Issue Date, as reasonably determined by the Company without requirement of an appraisal or other third-party valuation and
(y) purchase price paid for each Mortgage Property acquired by the Company or a Guarantor after the Issue Date, issued by a nationally recognized title insurance company (the “Title Company”) insuring the Lien of each Mortgage
as a valid Lien on the Mortgaged Property, including any fixtures, described therein, free of any other Liens except Permitted Liens, together with customary endorsements, coinsurance and reinsurance which are available in the jurisdiction where the
applicable Mortgaged Property is located and containing no exceptions to title other than Permitted Liens and other standard exceptions for a loan policy of the same value issued by such Title Company, and (iv) the most recent survey of each
Mortgaged Property (including improvements, easements and other customary matters thereon) in the possession of the Company, for which all necessary fees (where applicable) have been paid with respect to each Mortgaged Property, which is
(A) complying in all material respects with the minimum detail requirements of the American Land Title Association and the National Society of Professional Surveyors as such requirements are in effect on the date of preparation of such survey
and (B) together with either (1) an updated survey certification in favor of the Collateral Trustee from the applicable surveyor stating that, based on a visual inspection of the property and the knowledge of the surveyor, there has been
no change in the facts depicted in the survey or (2) an affidavit and/or indemnity from the Company or the applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, stating that to its knowledge there has been no change in the facts depicted in the survey,
other than, in each case, changes that do not materially adversely affect the use by the Company or Guarantor, as applicable, of such Mortgaged Property for the Company or such Guarantor’s business as so conducted, or intended to be conducted,
at such Mortgaged Property and in each case, in 

  
 105 













 
form sufficient for the Title Company to issue the insurance policy referred to in preceding clause (iii), to remove all standard survey exceptions from the title insurance policy relating to
such Mortgaged Property and to provide reasonable and customary survey related endorsements and other similar coverages to the extent applicable to the Mortgaged Property in the applicable title policy. 

(c)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and so long as such actions are not taken in connection with or
required under another Credit Facility or other Indebtedness of the Company or a Guarantor, no perfection actions (including requirements to deliver landlord or other third-party lien waivers, estoppels and collateral access agreements) shall be
required with respect to the Collateral other than (A) filings pursuant to the UCC in the office of the secretary of state (or similar central filing office) of the relevant state(s) and filings in the applicable real estate records with
respect to Mortgaged Properties or any fixtures relating to Mortgaged Properties (in jurisdictions where the filing of Mortgages does not satisfy this requirement), (B) with respect to Intellectual Property, filings with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, (C) Mortgages in respect of fee owned real property (other than for the avoidance of doubt Excluded Assets), (D) delivery to the Collateral Trustee to be held in its possession of all
Collateral consisting of promissory notes with an individual value greater than $5,000,000, and equity interest certificates of any pledged Equity Interests to the extent constituting certificated securities (together with any applicable stock
transfer powers and allonges), and (E) entering into control agreements with respect to any pledged Equity Interests to the extent constituting uncertificated securities, Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts (for the
avoidance of doubt except with respect to Excluded Accounts). No actions in any non-U.S. jurisdiction or required by the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction shall be
required to be taken to create any security interests in assets located or titled outside of the U.S. or to perfect or make enforceable any security interests in any such assets. For the avoidance of doubt if such actions listed above are taken or
required under another Credit Facility or other applicable Indebtedness, the Collateral Trustee may take such actions in its sole discretion (or shall take such actions as directed in an Act of Parity Lien Debtholders) subject to any applicable
intercreditor agreement (including, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement) or applicable subordination agreement, terms or provisions. 

Section 10.06    Release of Liens on the Collateral. 

The Collateral Trustee’s Liens upon the Collateral will no longer secure the Notes or other Obligations outstanding under this Indenture
(but may still secure any other Cash Flow Obligations), and the right of the Holders to the benefits and proceeds of the Collateral Trustee’s Liens on the Collateral will automatically and without the need for any further action by any Person
(other than notice of such release to the Collateral Trustee, but the failure to deliver such notice shall not affect such release) terminate and be discharged: 

(a)    upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as set forth in Article 12; 

(b)    upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance as set forth in Article 8; 

(c)    upon payment in full in cash and discharge of all Notes outstanding hereunder and all other Notes Obligations that

Company or any Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after such sale, transfer or disposition) the Company or a Guarantor in a transaction or other circumstance that does not 

  
 106 













 
violate Section 4.10 (other than the obligation to apply proceeds of such Asset Sale as provided in such provision) and is permitted (or not prohibited) by the Notes Documents, at the time
of such sale, transfer or other disposition or to the extent of the interest sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of; provided that the Collateral Trustee’s Liens upon the Collateral will not be released if the sale or disposition is
subject to the Section 5.01; 
 (e)    in whole or in part, with the consent of the Holders of the requisite
percentage of Notes in accordance with Article 9; 
 (f)    with respect to the assets of any Guarantor, at the time

 Section 10.07    [Reserved] 

ARTICLE 11 
 NOTE GUARANTEES 

Section 11.01    Guarantee. 

(a)    Subject to this Article 11, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally
guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company
hereunder or thereunder, that: 
 (1)     the principal of, and premium or interest, if any, on, the
Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on, the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the
Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 

(2)    in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other
obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed 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 or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally
obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

(b)    The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are 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 of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the
Company, any action to enforce the same or 

  
 107 













 
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of
claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 
 (c)    If any Holder or the
Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the
Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 

(d)    Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to enforce 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,
(1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 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 (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the
Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors will 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 Guarantee. 
 Section 11.02    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 such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that 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 11, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. Each Guarantor that makes a payment for distribution
under its Guarantee is entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in a pro rata amount based on the adjusted net assets of each Guarantor. 

Section 11.03    Evidence of Guarantee. 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its execution and delivery of this Indenture or, if applicable, any supplemental indenture substantially in
the form of Exhibit D pursuant to Section 4.15 and this Section 11.03 shall evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 without the need for notation on the Notes.

 Section 11.04    Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

(a)    A Guarantor may not sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of, in one or more related transactions, all
or substantially all of its properties or assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless: 

(1)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions, no Default or Event
of Default exists; and 
 (2)    either: 

(a)    either (i) the Guarantor is the surviving Person or (ii) the Person acquiring the
properties or assets in any such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Guarantor) unconditionally assumes, pursuant to a supplemental
indenture, all the obligations of that Guarantor under the Notes, this Indenture, the Security Documents and its Guarantee on terms set forth therein; or 

(b)    such transaction complies with Section 4.10 hereof. 

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantor may (i) merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or
another Guarantor solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Guarantor in the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia or (ii) convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company or
trust organized under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor, in each case without regard to the requirements set forth in clause (1) of Section 11.04(a) hereof. 

(c)    In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by
supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be
performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the
Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under
this Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

Section 11.05    Guarantee Releases. 

(a)    The Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released automatically and unconditionally without the need for any action by
any party (other than notice of such release to the Trustee, but the failure to deliver such notice shall not affect such release): 

(1)    in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or
assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition complies
with Section 4.10 hereof; 

  
 109 













 (2)    in connection with any sale or other disposition
of Capital Stock of that Guarantor (including by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition
complies with Section 4.10 hereof and the Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as a result of the sale or other disposition; 

(3)     if the Company designates such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with
Section 4.16 hereof or such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary; 
 (4)    upon Legal
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 8 hereof or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 12 hereof; 

(5)    solely in the case of a Guarantee created pursuant to Section 4.15 hereof, upon the release or
discharge of the guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee pursuant to such covenant, except a discharge or release of such guarantee by or as a result of payment under such guarantee (it being understood that a release subject to a
contingent reinstatement is still a release); 
 (6)    upon the liquidation or dissolution of such
Guarantor; 
 (7)    solely in the case of a Guarantee created pursuant to Section 4.15 as a result
of such Guarantor incurring any Material Indebtedness under a Credit Facility, at such time as such Guarantor ceases to be an obligor with respect to any Material Indebtedness under a Credit Facility; 

(8)    upon such Guarantor consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or substantially all of its
properties or assets to the Company, another Guarantor or a Person that becomes a Guarantor; or 

(9)    pursuant to Article 9. 

(b)    Upon the release of a Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.05, all Collateral owned by
the released Guarantor will also be automatically released in accordance with the terms of Section 10.06. 

(c)    Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that one or more Guarantees may be released under the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably requested in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee. 

(d)    Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Guarantee as provided in this Section 11.05 will
remain liable for the full amount of principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on, the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 11.

 ARTICLE 12 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 12.01     Satisfaction and Discharge. 

(a)    This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder (except as
to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes and as otherwise specified herein), when: 

(1)    either: 

(a)    all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been
replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(b)    all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable
or will become due and payable within one year by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company or any Guarantor has
irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of
cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes
not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of fixed maturity or redemption; 

(2)    no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit or will
occur as a result of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of
Liens in connection therewith) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is
a party or by which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound (other than any such default resulting from any borrowing of funds to be applied to make the deposit and any similar simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness,
and the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 
 (3)    the Company or any Guarantor has paid or
caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
 (4)    the Company has delivered
irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at fixed maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be. 

(b)    In addition, the Company must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee
stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
 (c)    Upon a satisfaction
and discharge in accordance with this Article 12 the Collateral will be released from the Liens securing the Notes, each Guarantor will be released and relieved from its Guarantee. 

  
 111 













 (d)    Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture,
if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.01(a)(1)(b), the provisions of Sections 12.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 12.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of
Section 7.06 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 12.02    
Application of Trust Money. 
 (a)    Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money
deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.01 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
Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, 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. 
 (b)    If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable
to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.01 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 Company’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 12.01 hereof; provided that if the Company
has made any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the
money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

5.875% SENIOR SECURED GREEN NOTES DUE 2028 

[Insert the Global Note Legend, if applicable pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture] 

[Insert the Private Placement Legend, if applicable pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture] 

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

(1)    INTEREST. Renewable Energy Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), promises to pay or cause to be paid interest on the principal amount of this Note at 5.875% per annum from May 20, 2021 until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and
December 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been
paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such
next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be December 1, 2021. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any bankruptcy law) on
overdue principal at the rate then in effect to the extent lawful. 
 Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

(2)    METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company
will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled
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. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office
or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders;
provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire
transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment will 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. 

(3)    PAYING AGENT AND
REGISTRAR. Initially, UMB Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the Notes.
The Company or any of the Subsidiaries of the Company may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

(4)    INDENTURE. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture
dated as of May 20, 2021 (the “Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to
the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern 

  
 A-2 













 
and be controlling. The Notes are secured obligations of the Company limited to $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount in the case of the Initial Notes. Subject to compliance with
Sections 4.09 and 4.12 thereof, the Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes that may be issued thereunder. 

(5)    OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.  
 (a)    At any time prior to June 1, 2024, the
Company may on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture (including any Additional Notes) at a redemption price equal to 105.875% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date), with an
amount equal to all or a portion of the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings, provided that: 

(i)    at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under the Indenture (including
any Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries); and 

(ii)    the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(b)    Prior to June 1, 2024, the Company may on one or more occasions redeem all or part of the Notes

Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Guarantee”); and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.
