Statement or to Consummate the Registered Exchange Offer because the Registered Exchange Offer is not permitted by applicable law or Commission policy, the Company and the Guarantors shall prepare and, not later than 120 days from the Issue Date
(or, if such 120th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter), shall file with the Commission the Exchange Offer Registration Statement with respect to the Registered Exchange Offer (the date of such filing hereinafter referred

(or, if such 180th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter), and (ii) to Consummate the Registered Exchange Offer within 210 days from the Issue Date (or, if such 210th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business
Day thereafter). 
 (b) The objective of such Registered Exchange Offer is to enable each Holder electing to exchange Transfer Restricted
Notes for Exchange Notes (assuming that such Holder (x) is not an “affiliate” of the Company or the Guarantors within the meaning of the Securities Act, (y) is not a broker-dealer that acquired the Transfer Restricted Notes in a
transaction other than as a part of its market-making or other trading activities and (z) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, acquires the Exchange Notes in the ordinary course of such Holder’s business, is not participating in the
distribution of the Exchange Notes and has no arrangements or intentions with any person to make a distribution of the Exchange Notes) to resell such Exchange Notes from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the
Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of a substantial proportion of the several states of the United States. Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the
Company and the Guarantors that at the time of the Consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer each of the items listed in subsections (x), (y) and (z) of this Section 2(b) is true. 
 (c) In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company and the Guarantors shall: 
 (i) mail to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate
letter of transmittal and related documents; 
 (ii) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for acceptance for not less than
20 Business Days (or longer if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to Holders; 
  

 5 








 (iii) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Notes at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. New York
City time on the last Business Day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; 
 (iv) utilize the services of a
depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; and 
 (v)
comply in all material respects with all applicable laws relating to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 (d) The Company and the Guarantors may
suspend the use of the Prospectus for a period not to exceed 30 days in any six-month period or an aggregate of 45 days in any twelve-month period for valid business reasons (not including avoidance of their obligations hereunder) to avoid premature
public disclosure of a pending corporate transaction, including pending acquisitions or divestitures of assets, mergers and combinations and similar events; provided that (i) the Company and the Guarantors promptly thereafter
comply with the requirements of Section 5(k) hereof, if applicable; and (ii) the period during which the Registration Statement is required to be effective and usable shall be extended by the number of days during which such Registration
Statement was not effective or usable pursuant to the foregoing provisions. 
 (e) As soon as practicable after the Consummation of the
Registered Exchange Offer, the Company and the Guarantors shall: 
 (i) accept for exchange all the Notes validly tendered and
not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; 
 (ii) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all of the Notes so
accepted for exchange; and 
 (iii) cause the Trustee promptly to authenticate and deliver to each Holder Exchange Notes equal
in principal amount to the Transfer Restricted Notes of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 
 (f) The Initial Purchasers, the Company and
the Guarantors acknowledge that, pursuant to interpretations by the staff of the Commission of Section 5 of the Securities Act, and in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, each Participating Broker-Dealer is required to deliver a
Prospectus in connection with a sale of any Exchange Notes received by such Participating Broker-Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer in exchange for Transfer Restricted Notes acquired for its own account as a result of market-making
activities or other trading activities. Accordingly, the Company and the Guarantors will allow Participating Broker-Dealers and other persons, if any, with similar prospectus delivery requirements to use the Prospectus contained in the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement during the Exchange Offer Registration Period in connection with the resale of such Exchange Notes and shall: 
 (i) include the information set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover of the Prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement; (b) Annex B hereto in the forepart of the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement in a section setting forth details of the Registered Exchange Offer; (c) Annex C hereto in the plan of distribution section of the Prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and
(d) Annex D hereto in the letter of transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; and 
  

 6 








 (ii) use best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement continuously
effective (subject to Section 2(d)) under the Securities Act during the Exchange Offer Registration Period for delivery of the Prospectus included therein by Participating Broker-Dealers in connection with sales of Exchange Notes received
pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 5(h) below. 
 (g) In the event that the Initial Purchasers
determine that they are not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the exchange of Transfer Restricted Notes constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, upon the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration
Statement as contemplated by Section 3 hereof and at the request of the Initial Purchasers, the Company and the Guarantors shall issue and deliver to the Initial Purchasers, or to the party purchasing Transfer Restricted Notes registered under
the Shelf Registration Statement from the Initial Purchasers, in exchange for such Transfer Restricted Notes, a like principal amount of Exchange Notes to the extent permitted by applicable law (the “Private Exchange Notes”). The
Company and the Guarantors shall use their best efforts to cause the CUSIP Service Bureau to issue the same CUSIP number for such Private Exchange Notes as for Exchange Notes issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 3. Shelf Registration. 
 (a) If
(i) the Company and the Guarantors shall reasonably determine that they are not permitted to file the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or to Consummate the Registered Exchange Offer because the Registered Exchange Offer is not permitted by
applicable law or Commission policy, (ii) for any other reason the Registered Exchange Offer is not Consummated within 210 days (or if such 210th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter) of the Issue Date, (iii) the
Initial Purchasers so request with respect to Notes acquired by it directly from the Company and the Guarantors, which have not been resold on or prior to the 30th day (or if such 30th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter)
following the Consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, (iv) any Holder notifies the Company and the Guarantors on or prior to the 30th day (or if such 30th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter) following the
Consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer that (A) such Holder is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer, due to applicable law or Commission policy, (B) the Exchange Notes such Holder would receive would not be
freely tradable, (C) such Holder is a Participating Broker-Dealer that cannot publicly resell the Exchange Notes that it acquires in the Registered Exchange Offer without delivering a Prospectus and the Prospectus contained in the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for resales following the completion of the Registered Exchange Offer, or (D) the Holder is a broker-dealer and owns Notes it has not exchanged and that it acquired directly from the
Company, one of its Affiliates or the Guarantors, or (v) in the case where the Initial Purchasers participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or acquires Private Exchange Notes pursuant to Section 2(g) hereof, the Initial Purchasers do
not receive freely tradable Exchange Notes in exchange for Notes constituting any portion of an unsold allotment and the Initial Purchasers notify the Company and the Guarantors on or prior to the 30th day following the 

  

 7 








 
Consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (it being understood that, for purposes of this Section 3, (x) the requirement that the Initial
Purchasers deliver a Prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 and/or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act in connection with sales of Exchange Notes acquired in exchange for such Transfer Restricted Notes shall result in
such Exchange Notes being not “freely tradable” and (y) the requirement that a Participating Broker-Dealer deliver a Prospectus in connection with sales of Exchange Notes acquired in the Registered Exchange Offer in exchange for
Transfer Restricted Notes acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities shall not result in such Exchange Notes being not “freely tradable”), the following provisions shall apply: 
 (b) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their best efforts to prepare and file with the Commission a Shelf Registration Statement prior to the 45th
day (or if such 45th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter) following the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which the Company and the Guarantors determine that they are not permitted to file the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement or to Consummate the Exchange Offer; (ii) 45 days (or if such 45th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter) after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has been declared effective if the
Registered Exchange Offer has not been Consummated by such date and (iii) the date notice is given pursuant to Section (a)(iii), (iv) or (v) above (or if either such 30th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day
thereafter), and shall use their best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission within 60 days after such filing (or if such 60th day is not a Business Day, by the first Business Day thereafter).
With respect to Exchange Notes received by the Initial Purchasers in exchange for Notes constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, the Company and the Guarantors may, if permitted by current interpretations by the Commission’s staff, file
a post-effective amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement containing the information required by Regulation S-K Items 507 and/or 508, as applicable, in satisfaction of their obligations under this paragraph (b) with respect
thereto, and any such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as so amended, shall be referred to herein as, and governed by the provisions herein applicable to, a Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (c) The Company and the Guarantors shall use their best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective (subject to
Section 3(d)) in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by Holders until the earliest of (i) such time as the Notes or Exchange Notes covered by the Shelf Registration Statement can be sold without any
limitations under clauses (c), (e), (f) and (h) of Rule 144 or similar rule adopted by the Commission, (ii) two years from the date the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective exclusive of any period during which any
stop order shall be in effect suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or during which the Company has suspended the use of the Prospectus contained therein pursuant to Section 3(d) and (iii) such date as of which
all the Transfer Restricted Notes have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement (in any such case, such period being called the “Shelf Registration Period”). The Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed not to have
used their best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the Shelf Registration Period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered thereby not being able to offer and
sell such notes during that period, unless such action is (x) required by applicable law or (y) pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof, and, in either case, so long as the Company and the Guarantors promptly thereafter comply with the
requirements of Section 5(k) hereof, if applicable. 
  

 8 








 (d) The Company and the Guarantors may suspend the use of the Prospectus for a period not to exceed 30
days in any six-month period or an aggregate of 45 days in any twelve-month period for valid business reasons (not including avoidance of their obligations hereunder) or to avoid premature public disclosure of a pending corporate transaction,
including pending acquisitions or divestitures of assets, mergers and combinations and similar events; provided that (i) the Company and the Guarantors promptly thereafter comply with the requirements of Section 5(k) hereof, if
applicable; and (ii) the period during which the Registration Statement is required to be effective and usable shall be extended by the number of days during which such Registration Statement was not effective or usable pursuant to the
foregoing provisions. 
 (e) No Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes may include any of its Transfer Restricted Notes in any Shelf
Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder furnishes to the Company and the Guarantors in writing, within 15 days after receipt of a request therefor, such information as the Company and the Guarantors may
reasonably request for use in connection with any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus included therein. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes shall be entitled to Additional Interest pursuant to Section 4
hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided all such reasonably requested information. Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes as to which any Shelf Registration Statement is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company and
the Guarantors all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company and the Guarantors by such Holder not misleading. 
 4. Additional Interest. 
 (a) The
parties hereto agree that Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes will suffer damages if the Company or the Guarantors fails to perform their obligations under Section 2 or Section 3 hereof and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the
extent of such damages. Accordingly, in the event that (i) the applicable Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the date specified herein for such filing, (ii) the applicable Registration Statement has not
been declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the date specified herein for such effectiveness after such obligation arises, (iii) if the Registered Exchange Offer is required to be Consummated hereunder, the Registered Exchange
Offer has not been Consummated by the Company and the Guarantors within the time period set forth in Section 2(a) hereof, (iv) prior to the end of the Exchange Offer Registration Period or the Shelf Registration Period, the Commission
shall have issued a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, or proceedings have been initiated with respect to the Registration Statement under
Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the Securities Act, or (v) the Company and the Guarantors shall have initiated a suspension period beyond the periods set forth in Section 2(d) or 3(d) (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through
(v), a “Registration Default”), then additional interest with respect to the Transfer Restricted Notes (“Additional Interest”) will accrue with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence
of such Registration Default in an amount equal to 0.5 % per annum and will increase by an additional 0.5% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period until such Registration Default has been cured, up to an aggregate maximum amount of
Additional Interest of 1.0% per annum for all Registration Defaults. Following the cure of a Registration Default, the accrual of Additional Interest with respect to such Registration Default 

  

 9 








 
will cease and upon the cure of all Registration Defaults the accrual of all Additional Interest will cease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 4(a), the Company and the Guarantors shall not be required to pay Additional Interest to a Holder of Restricted Transfer Notes if such Holder failed to comply with its obligations to make the representations set forth in the second
sentence of Section 2(b) or provide the requested information pursuant to Section 3(e). 
 (b) The Company shall notify the Trustee
and paying agent under the Indenture immediately upon the happening of each and every Registration Default. The Company and the Guarantors shall pay the Additional Interest due on the Transfer Restricted Notes by depositing with the paying agent
(which shall not be the Company or the Guarantors for these purposes) for the Transfer Restricted Notes, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders thereof, prior to 11:00 a.m. on the next interest payment date specified in the Indenture (or such
other indenture), sums sufficient to pay the Additional Interest then due. The Additional Interest due shall be payable on each interest payment date specified by the Indenture (or such other indenture) to the record holders entitled to receive the
interest payment to be made on such date. Each obligation to pay Additional Interest shall be deemed to accrue from and include the date of the applicable Registration Default to, but excluding, the relevant interest payment date. 
 (c) The parties hereto agree that the Additional Interest provided for in this Section 4 constitutes a reasonable estimate of the damages that will
be suffered by Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes by reason of the happening of any Registration Default and are intended to constitute the sole remedy for damages that will be suffered by the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes by reason of
any of the failures listed in Section 4(a). 
 (d) All of the Company’s and the Guarantors’s obligations set forth in this
Section 4 which are outstanding with respect to any Transfer Restricted Note at the time such Note ceases to be a Transfer Restricted Note shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such Note have been satisfied in
full (notwithstanding termination of this Agreement). 
 5. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Exchange Offer
Registration Statement, and, to the extent applicable, any Shelf Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The
Company and the Guarantors shall furnish to the Initial Purchasers, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of any Registration Statement, and each amendment thereof and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the Prospectus

Prospectus.

post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; and 
 (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or
supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus included therein or for additional information. 
 (2) The Company and the
Guarantors shall advise the Initial Purchasers and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered thereby, and, in the case of an Exchange Offer Registration Statement, any Participating
Broker-Dealer that has provided in writing to the Company a telephone or facsimile number and address for notices, and, if requested by the Initial Purchasers or any such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, confirm such advice in writing:

 (i) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the

 (iii) of the happening of any event that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that, as of
the date of the issuance of such advice, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the

such Participating Broker-Dealer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Notes, as provided in Section 2(f) above. 
 (i) Prior to the Registered Exchange Offer or any other offering of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall use best efforts to register, qualify or
cooperate with the Holders of Transfer 

  

 12 








 
Restricted Notes included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of such Transfer Restricted Notes for
offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such states as any such Holders reasonably request in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Transfer
Restricted Notes covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, neither the Company nor the Guarantors will be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction in which it is not then so qualified, to file
any general consent to service of process or to take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 
 (j) The Company and the Guarantors shall cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
representing Transfer Restricted Notes to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in denominations and registered in such names as Holders may appropriately request prior to sales of Transfer Restricted
Notes pursuant to such Registration Statement. 
 (k) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 2(d), 3(d)
or paragraph (c)(2)(iii) of this Section 5, the Company and the Guarantors shall promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to any Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement to the related Prospectus or any other
required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Transfer Restricted Notes included therein, the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 (l) The Company and the
Guarantors shall use their best efforts to cause The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) on the first Business Day following the effective date of any Registration Statement hereunder or as soon as possible thereafter to remove
(i) from any existing CUSIP number assigned to the Transfer Restricted Notes or Exchange Notes, as the case may be, any designation indicating that such notes are “restricted securities,” which efforts shall include delivery to DTC of
a letter executed by the Company substantially in the form of Annex E hereto and (ii) any other stop or restriction on DTC’s system with respect to the Transfer Restricted Notes or Exchange Notes, as the case may be. In the event the
Company and the Guarantors are unable to cause DTC to take actions described in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company and the Guarantors shall take such actions as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request to provide, as soon as
practicable, a new CUSIP (if not already obtained) number for the Transfer Restricted Notes or Exchange Notes registered under such Registration Statement and to cause such CUSIP number to be assigned to the Transfer Restricted Notes or Exchange
Notes (or to the maximum aggregate principal amount of the securities to which such number may be assigned). 
 (m) The
Company and the Guarantors shall use their best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and shall make generally available to the security holders as soon as practicable after the effective date of the
applicable Registration Statement an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 promulgated thereunder. 
  

 13 








 (n) The Company and the Guarantors shall use best efforts to cause the Indenture to be
qualified under the Trust Indenture Act in a timely manner. 
 (o) The Company and the Guarantors may require each Holder of
Transfer Restricted Notes to be sold pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company and the Guarantors such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of such Transfer Restricted Notes as may, from time to time, be
reasonably required by the Securities Act, and the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors to any Holder hereunder shall be expressly conditioned on the compliance of such Holder with such request. 
 (p) The Company and the Guarantors shall, if requested, promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a
Shelf Registration Statement (i) such information as the Majority Holders or, if the Transfer Restricted Notes are being sold in an underwritten offering, as the Managing Underwriters and the Majority Holders, reasonably provide to the Company
or the Guarantors in writing for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, or Prospectus, and (ii) such information as a Holder may reasonably provide from time to time to the Company or the Guarantors in writing for inclusion in a
Prospectus or any Shelf Registration Statement, in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above, concerning such Holder and/or underwriter and the distribution of such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Notes and, in either case, shall make all
required filings of such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified in writing of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment. 
 (q) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall enter into such agreements (including
underwriting agreements) and take all other customary and appropriate actions as may be reasonably requested in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of any Transfer Restricted Notes, and in connection therewith, if an
underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to contain indemnification provisions and procedures no less favorable than those set forth in Section 8 (or such other provisions and procedures reasonably acceptable to the Majority
Holders and the Managing Underwriters, if any, with respect to all parties to be indemnified pursuant to Section 8). 
 (r) In the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall: 
 (i) make reasonably
available for inspection by the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes to be registered thereunder, any Managing Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent
retained by the Holders or any such Managing Underwriter, all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and any of its subsidiaries reasonably requested by such persons; 
  

 14 








 (ii) cause the Company’s and the Guarantors’ officers, directors and employees
to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders or any such Managing Underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations;
provided, however, that any information that is designated in writing by the Company and the Guarantors as confidential at the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by the Holders or any such Managing
Underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent, unless (x) disclosure thereof is made in connection with a court proceeding or required by law; provided that each Holder and any such Managing Underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent will,
upon learning that disclosure of such information is sought in a court proceeding or required by law, give notice to the Company and the Guarantors with enough time to allow the Company and the Guarantors to undertake appropriate action to prevent
disclosure at the Company’s and the Guarantors’ sole expense, or (y) such information has previously been made or becomes available to the public generally through the Company, the Guarantors or through a third party without an
accompanying obligation of confidentiality or failure to safeguard such disclosure; 
 (iii) make such representations and
warranties to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes registered thereunder and the Managing Underwriters, if any, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by the Company and the Guarantors to Managing Underwriters and covering matters
including, but not limited to, those set forth in the Purchase Agreement; 
 (iv) obtain opinions of counsel to the Company
and the Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions, in form, scope and substance, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Underwriters, if any) addressed to each selling Holder and the Managing Underwriters, if any, covering
such matters as are customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such Holders and Managing Underwriters; 
 (v) use best efforts to obtain “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof from the independent certified public accountants of
the Company and the Guarantors (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required
to be, included in the Registration Statement), addressed to each selling Holder of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement (provided such Holder furnishes the accountants with such representations as the
accountants customarily require in similar situations) and the Managing Underwriters, if any, in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters in connection with similar offerings; and

  

 15 








 (vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the
Majority Holders and the Managing Underwriters, if any, including those to evidence compliance with Section 5(i) and with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company and the
Guarantors. 
 The foregoing actions set forth in this Section 5(r) shall be performed at (i) the effectiveness of such Shelf
Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto and (ii) each closing under any underwriting or similar agreement as and to the extent required thereunder. 
 (s) The Company and the Guarantors shall, if and to the extent required under the Securities Act and/or the Trust Indenture Act and the
rules and regulations thereunder in order to register the Note Guarantee under the Securities Act and qualify the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, cause each guarantor, if any, to sign any Registration Statement and take all other action
necessary to register the Note Guarantee under the applicable Registration Statement. 
 6. Registration Expenses. The Company and the
Guarantors shall bear all reasonable fees and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses, if any, of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, incurred in connection with the Registered
Exchange Offer) incurred in connection with the performance of their obligations under Sections 2, 3, 4 and 5 hereof (other than brokers’, dealers’ and underwriters’ discounts and commissions and brokers’, dealers’ and
underwriters’ counsel fees) and, in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, shall reimburse the Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm or counsel designated by the Majority Holders to act as counsel for the
Holders in connection therewith. 
 7. Rules 144 and 144A. The Company shall use best efforts to file the reports required to be filed
by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes, make publicly available the applicable
information necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A (or any successor rule adopted by the Commission). The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes may
reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Transfer Restricted Notes without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including
the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4) if applicable). The Company will provide a copy of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of Transfer Restricted Notes identified to the Company by the Initial Purchasers upon request. Upon the request of any
Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. 
 8. Indemnification and Contribution. 
 (a) (i) In connection with any Registration Statement,
the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Transfer 

  

 16 








 
Restricted Notes covered thereby, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each such Holder and each person who controls any such Holder within the
meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law
or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, in any preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agree to reimburse each such indemnified party, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors will not be liable in any case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out
of or is based upon (A) any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Holder furnished to the Company and the
Guarantors by or on behalf of any such Holder specifically for inclusion therein, or (B) use of a Registration Statement or the related Prospectus during a period when a stop order has been issued in respect of such Registration Statement or
any proceedings for that purpose have been initiated or use of a Prospectus when use of such Prospectus has been suspended pursuant to Section 2(d), 3(d) or 5(c)(2); provided, that, in each case, that Holders received prior notice
of such stop order, initiation of proceedings or suspension. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have. 
 (ii) The Company and the Guarantors also agree to indemnify or contribute to Losses, as provided in Section 8(d), of any Managing Underwriters of
Transfer Restricted Notes registered under a Registration Statement, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Managing Underwriters on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the selling Holders provided
in this Section 8(a) and shall, if requested by any Holder, enter into an underwriting agreement reflecting such agreement, as provided in Section 5(q) hereof. 
 (b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by a Registration Statement severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors and their respective directors, officers, employees and
agents and each person who controls either of the Company or the Guarantors within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to each such Holder,
but only with reference to written information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company and the Guarantors by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. The Company and the
Guarantors shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution of Transfer Restricted Notes to the same extent as provided above
with respect to information furnished in writing by such persons as provided specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any such Holder or
person may otherwise have. 
  

 17 








 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so
to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying
party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above.
The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the
indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be
satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local
counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel (and local counsel) if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present
such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded, based
on the advice of outside counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have
employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall have authorized the indemnified party to
employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided further, that the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with appropriate local
counsel) representing all the indemnified parties under paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) above. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or
action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. 
 (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless
an indemnified party for any reason, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which such indemnified party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is
unavailable for any reason, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall contribute 

  

 18 








 
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and
such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other
indemnified person, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors shall
be deemed to be equal to the sum of the gross proceeds from the original issuance of the Notes (before deducting expenses). Benefits received by any Managing Underwriter shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and
commissions, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to
in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this
subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8(d), the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes shall in no case be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such
Holders from the sale of the Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission and in no case shall any Managing Underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Transfer Restricted Notes purchased by such Managing Underwriter under the
Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which
does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall
be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an indemnified party within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of such indemnified party shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party, and each person who controls the Company or the Guarantors within the meaning of either the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of the Company or the Guarantors shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantors, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this
paragraph (d). 
 (e) The provisions of this Section 8 will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or
on behalf of any Holder, the Company, the Guarantors or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive the sale by a Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by a Registration
Statement. 
 9. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by any Shelf Registration statement are
to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Managing Underwriter that will administer the offering will be selected by the Majority Holders of such 

  

 19 








 
Transfer Restricted Notes included in such offering, subject to the consent of the Company not to be unreasonably withheld; it being expressly agreed that
the Initial Purchasers are acceptable Managing Underwriters to the Company and such Holders shall be responsible for all underwriting commissions and discounts in connection therewith. 
 No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted
Notes on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting
agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
 10. Miscellaneous.

 (a) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and the Guarantors have not, as of the date hereof, entered into nor shall they, on or
after the date hereof, enter into any agreement that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders herein or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. 
 (b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the
provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the written consent of the Majority Holders; provided that additional Guarantors may become parties to this Agreement pursuant to Section 10(h)
hereof by executing an amendment hereto, which need not be signed by any of the other parties hereto to become effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates
exclusively to the rights of the Holders whose securities are being sold pursuant to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights
of other Holders may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the applicable notes being sold pursuant to such registration statement. 
 (c) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telex, telecopier, or air courier guaranteeing overnight

 (iii) if to the Company or the Guarantors, as follows: 
  

			
		 	Esterline Technologies Corporation
		 	500 108th Avenue NE, Suite 1500
		 	Bellevue, WA 98004
		 	Attn: Robert George, Chief Financial Officer

 All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when received, if
delivered by hand or air courier, and when sent, if sent by first-class mail, telex or telecopier. 
 The Company and the Guarantors by
notice to the others may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications. 
 (d) Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties, including, without the need for an express assignment or any consent by the Company or the Guarantors thereto,
subsequent Holders. The Company and the Guarantors hereby agree to extend the benefits of this Agreement to any Holder that acquired the applicable Notes from a Holder and any such Holder may specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement as
if an original party hereto. 
 (e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
 (f) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

 (g) Governing Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York. The Company and the Guarantors (x) submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of the United States sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in respect of any action, claim or proceeding
(“Proceeding”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (y) irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to
the laying of venue of any Proceeding in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any claim that any Proceeding in any such court has been brought
in an inconvenient forum, and (z) agree that any service of process or other legal 

  

 21 








 
summons in connection with any Proceeding may be served on it by mailing a copy thereof by registered mail, or a form of mail substantially equivalent
thereto, postage prepaid, addressed to the served party at its address as provided for in Section 10(c). Nothing in this section shall affect the right of the parties to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
 (h) Obligations of New Subsidiary Guarantors. If any person becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor (as defined in the Indenture) after the date hereof and
while the Company has continuing obligations under this Agreement, the Company will cause such person to become a party hereto including for purposes of registration obligations, the guarantee of Additional Interest on a joint and several basis and
indemnification and contribution pursuant to Section 8. 
 (i) Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions
contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining
provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired or affected thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 (j) Notes Held by the Company, etc. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of principal amount of Transfer
Restricted Notes or Exchange Notes is required hereunder, Transfer Restricted Notes or Exchange Notes held by the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates (other than subsequent Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes or Exchange
Notes if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be Affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such Notes) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers.

 ANNEX A 
 Each
broker-dealer that receives Exchange Notes for its own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes. The Letter of Transmittal states that
by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time,
may be used by a broker-dealer during the Exchange Offer Registration Period in connection with resales of Exchange Notes received in exchange for Notes where such Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or
other trading activities. The Company and the Guarantors have agreed that, during the Exchange Offer Registration Period, it will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See “Plan of
Distribution.”

 ANNEX B 
 Each
broker-dealer that receives Exchange Notes for its own account in exchange for Notes, where such Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a
prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes during the Exchange Offer Registration Period. See “Plan of Distribution.” 
  

 B-1 








 ANNEX C 
 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Notes for its own account pursuant to the
Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes during the Exchange Offer Registration Period. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time,
may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Notes received in exchange for Notes where such Notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company and the Guarantors have agreed
that, during the Exchange Offer Registration Period, it will make this Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until
                         2007, all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Notes may be required to deliver a
prospectus. 
 The Company and the Guarantors will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Notes by broker-dealers. Exchange Notes
received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the
Exchange Notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or
through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any such Exchange Notes. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Notes that were received by it
for its own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit
from any such resale of Exchange Notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will
deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
 During the Exchange Offer Registration Period, the Company and the Guarantors will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that
requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company and the Guarantors have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Registered Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the holders of the Notes) other than
dealers’ and brokers’ discounts, commissions and counsel fees and will indemnify the holders of the Notes (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. 
 [If applicable, add information required by Regulation S-K Items 507 and/or 508.]
