filed and to become effective, on or prior to the Effectiveness Date, an Exchange Offer Registration Statement covering an offer to the Holders to exchange all the Transfer Restricted Notes for Exchange Notes, (Y) have such Registration

 i. that the Exchange Offer is being made pursuant to this Agreement and that all
Transfer Restricted Notes validly tendered and not properly withdrawn will be accepted for exchange; 
 ii. the dates of
acceptance for exchange (which shall be a period of at least 20 Business Days from the date such notice is mailed) (the “Exchange Dates”); 

iii. that any Transfer Restricted Notes not tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest but will not

 iv. that any Holder electing to have a
Transfer Restricted Note exchanged pursuant to the Exchange Offer will be required to (A) surrender such Transfer Restricted Note, together with the appropriate letters of transmittal, to the institution and at the address (located in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York) and in the manner specified in the notice, or (B) effect such exchange otherwise in compliance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, in each case prior to the close of business on the last
Exchange Date; and 
 v. that any Holder will be entitled to withdraw its election, not later than the close of business on

Holder, the principal amount of Transfer Restricted Notes delivered for exchange and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Transfer Restricted Notes exchanged or (B) effecting such withdrawal in compliance with
the applicable procedures of the Depositary. 
 c) Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, if any, the Issuers
and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall commence the Exchange Offer in accordance with the foregoing, it being the objective of such Exchange Offer to enable each Holder eligible and electing to exchange Transfer Restricted Notes for Exchange Notes
(assuming that such Holder makes representations and warranties to the Issuers that (a) it is not an affiliate of the Issuers within the meaning of Rule 405 under the 1933 Act, (b) any Exchange Notes to be received by it will be acquired
in the ordinary course of its business, (c) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Notes, (d) if such Holder is a broker-dealer that will receive
Exchange Notes for its own account in exchange for Transfer Restricted Notes acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities, then such broker-dealer will deliver a prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available a
Prospectus) in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes, and (e) it has no arrangements or understandings with any Person to participate in the distribution of the Transfer Restricted Notes or the Exchange Notes) to transfer such
Exchange Notes from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the 1933 Act and under state securities or blue sky laws. 

  
 6 








 d) The Exchange Notes, if any, shall be issued under (i) the Indenture or
(ii) an indenture identical in all material respects to the Indenture and which, in either case, has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”), or is exempt from such qualification and shall
provide that the Exchange Notes shall not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture. The Exchange Notes and the Notes shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class and none of the Exchange Notes or the Notes
will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter. 
 e) As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange
Offer, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall: 
 i. accept for exchange all Transfer Restricted Notes duly tendered
and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and the letter of transmittal which shall be an exhibit thereto; 

ii. deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Transfer Restricted Notes so accepted for exchange; and 

iii. cause the Trustee promptly to authenticate and deliver Exchange Notes to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes so
accepted for exchange in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Notes of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 

f) Interest on each Exchange Note, including Additional Interest, will accrue (a) from the later of (i) the last date on which
interest was paid on the Transfer Restricted Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or (ii) if the Transfer Restricted Notes are surrendered for exchange on a date in a period which includes the record date for an interest payment date to occur
on or after the date of such exchange and as to which interest will be paid, the date of such interest payment date or (b) if no interest has been paid on the Transfer Restricted Notes, from the date of issuance. The Issuers shall inform the
Initial Purchasers of the names and addresses of the Holders to whom the Exchange Offer is made, and the Initial Purchasers shall have the right, but not the obligation, to contact such Holders and otherwise facilitate the tender of Transfer
Restricted Notes in the Exchange Offer. 
 g) The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to
complete the Exchange Offer as provided above and shall comply with the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act and other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the Exchange Offer. The Offer shall not be subject to any
conditions, other than (1) the Exchange Offer does not violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, (2) no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any court or by any
governmental agency with respect to the Exchange Offer and (3) all governmental approvals shall have been obtained that the Issuers deems necessary for the consummation of the Exchange Offer. 

2. Shelf Registration. 
 a) If,


  
 7 








 i. the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors would otherwise be required to
consummate an Exchange Offer Registration pursuant to Section 2.1 but determine that such Exchange Offer Registration is not available or the Exchange Offer may not be completed on or prior to the 30th Business Day following the
Effectiveness Date because it would violate any applicable law, SEC rules and regulations or any interpretation of the staff of the SEC, 

ii. the Exchange Offer is not for any other reason completed by the last Exchange Date; or 

iii. upon receipt of a written request (a “Shelf Request”) from any Initial Purchaser representing that it
holds Transfer Restricted Securities that are or were ineligible to be exchanged in the Exchange Offer, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall promptly deliver to the Holders and the Trustee written notice thereof and shall use their
commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be filed as soon as practicable after such determination, date or Shelf Request, as the case may be, a Shelf Registration Statement providing for the sale of all the Transfer Restricted Notes by the
Holders thereof and to have such Shelf Registration Statement become effective by the 90th day following such determination date or Shelf Request. 

b) In the event that the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors are required to file a Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuers and the
Subsidiary Guarantors agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended (including through post-effective amendments on Form S-3 if the Issuers are eligible
to use such Form) until the date which is the earliest of (i) 90 days after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, (ii) the date when no Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement constitute Transfer Restricted
Notes and (iii) the date when Holders, other than Holders that are “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Issuers, have actually sold such Notes pursuant to Rule 144 or any successor rule thereto or otherwise (the
“Effectiveness Period”). The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors agree to furnish to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes listed in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus copies of any such supplement or
amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the SEC. 
 c) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Issuers and the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that (i) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any Prospectus forming a part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material
respects with the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any Prospectus forming part of any Shelf Registration Statement, and any supplement to such Prospectus (as amended or supplemented from time
to time), does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

  
 8 








 d) The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not permit any securities other than Transfer
Restricted Notes to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that if the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Notes is registered pursuant to an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, the foregoing
prohibition shall apply only to the supplement or amendment covering such registration. The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors agree, if necessary, to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement, as required by Section 3(b)
below, and to furnish to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the SEC. 

e) If the Issuers are obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 2.2, and at the time such
obligation arises, the Company is a WKSI, then, in lieu of filing such Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuers shall file an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement or supplement or amend an existing Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, as
appropriate, to include the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Notes by the Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by the Majority Holders participating in such registration and set forth in such
Automatic Shelf Registration Statement (or supplement or amendment thereto), within the time frame specified in this Section 2.2. 

3. Expenses. The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration pursuant to
Sections 2.1 and 2.2. Each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement. 
 4. Effectiveness. 

a) The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors will be deemed not to have used their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, to become, or to remain, effective during the requisite period if either the Issuers or any Subsidiary Guarantor voluntarily takes any action that would, or omits to
take any action which omission would, result in any such Registration Statement not being declared effective, or in the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered thereby not being able to exchange or offer and sell such Transfer Restricted Notes
during that period as and to the extent contemplated hereby, unless such action is required by applicable law, in each case other than under the circumstances described in Sections 3(e)(iii), (iv), (v) or
(vi) below. 
 b) Neither an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof nor a Shelf
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, if not otherwise effective upon filing with the SEC as provided by Rule 462, will be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the SEC;
provided, however, that if, after it becomes effective, the offering of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction
or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other governmental agency or court, such Registration Statement will not be effective during the period of such interference, until the offering of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to such
Registration Statement may legally resume. 

  
 9 








 5. Additional Interest. 

a) In the event that (i) (A) neither the Exchange Offer Registration Statement nor a Shelf Registration Statement is declared
effective by the SEC on or prior to the Effectiveness Date or (B) notwithstanding that the Issuers have consummated or will consummate an Exchange Offer, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors are required to file a Shelf Registration
Statement and such Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the 90th day following the date such Shelf Registration Statement was filed; or (ii) (A) the Issuers have not exchanged all Transfer
Restricted Notes validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer for Exchange Notes on or prior to the 30th Business Day after the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement was declared effective or (B) if
applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective and such Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective at any time prior to the end of the Effectiveness Period; provided that the Issuers will be permitted to
suspend the use of the prospectus that is part of the Shelf Registration Statement if the Issuers’ management determines to do so for valid business reasons, including circumstances relating to pending corporate developments and similar events
or filings with the SEC, for a period not to exceed 60 days in any three-month period and not to exceed an aggregate of 90 days in any twelve-month period and without specifying the nature of the event giving rise to a suspension in any notice of
suspension provided to the Holders (any event referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) a “Registration Default”), then additional interest (“Additional Interest”) will accrue on the
principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first 90 days commencing on the day following the Registration Default, and increasing to 1.00% on the 91st day, to but excluding the day on which the
Registration Default has been cured. Additional Interest will be paid semi-annually in arrears with the interest payment due on the first interest payment date following the date on which such Additional Interest begins to accrue;
provided, however, that (a) the Additional Interest on the Transfer Restricted Notes may not accrue under more than one of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) at any one time and in no event will Additional
Interest accrue after the Effectiveness Period, (b) if a Holder is not able to or does not provide the representations and information required in connection with a Shelf Registration in a timely manner and is therefore not named as a selling
security holder in a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holder will not be entitled to receive any Additional Interest with respect to its Transfer Restricted Notes; and (c) the Issuers will have no other liabilities with respect to any
Registration Default. 
 b) The Issuers shall notify the Trustee within three Business Days after each and every date on which an
event occurs in respect of which Additional Interest is required to be paid (an “Event Date”). Any Additional Interest due shall be payable on each interest payment date to the Holder of Notes with respect to which Additional
Interest is due and owing. Each obligation to pay Additional Interest shall be deemed to accrue from and including the day following the applicable Event Date. 

3. Registration Procedures.

other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each such Holder and underwriter to consummate the disposition in each such jurisdiction of such Transfer Restricted Notes owned by such Holder; provided,
however, that the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where they would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this

activities and that will be the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act) of Exchange Notes to be received by such broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer, whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by the
staff of the SEC or such positions or policies represent the prevailing views of the staff of the SEC, including a statement that any such broker-dealer who receives Exchange Notes for 

  
 12 








 
Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be deemed a statutory underwriter and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act in connection with any resale

h) in the case of a Shelf Registration, furnish to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes, and each underwriter, if any, without charge, at
least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules (without documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits thereto, unless requested); 

i) in the case of a Shelf Registration, cooperate with the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes to facilitate the timely preparation
and delivery of certificates representing Transfer Restricted Notes to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends; and enable such Transfer Restricted Notes to be in such denominations (consistent with the provisions of the Indenture) and
registered in such names as the selling Holders or the underwriters, if any, may reasonably request at least three Business Days prior to the closing of any sale of Transfer Restricted Notes; 

j) in the case of a Shelf Registration, upon the occurrence of any event or the discovery of any facts, each as contemplated by Sections

 13 








 
prepare and file with the SEC a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other
required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Transfer Restricted Notes or Participating Broker-Dealers, such Prospectus will not contain at the time of such delivery any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or will remain so qualified. At such time as such public disclosure is otherwise made or the
Issuers determine that such disclosure is not necessary, in each case to correct any misstatement of a material fact or to include any omitted material fact, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors agree promptly to notify each Holder of such
determination and to furnish each Holder such number of copies of the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, as such Holder may reasonably request;

reasonably requested by the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes, or the Initial Purchasers on behalf of such Holders, available for discussion of such document; and the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not, at any time after initial

Purchasers shall reasonably object; 
 l) obtain a CUSIP number for all Exchange Notes or Transfer Restricted Notes, as the case may be, not

m) (i) in the case of a Shelf Registration, cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA in connection with the registration of the
Transfer Restricted Notes, and, in the case of an Exchange Offer Registration, cause or maintain, as the case may be, the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA in connection with the registration of the Exchange Notes, (ii) cooperate with the
Trustee and the Holders to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be required for the Indenture to be, or continue to be, so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA and (iii) execute, and use their commercially reasonable efforts
to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes, and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the SEC to enable the Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner; 

n) in the case of a Shelf Registration, enter into agreements (including underwriting agreements) and take all other customary and appropriate
actions in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Transfer Restricted Notes and if so requested by the holders of such Transfer Restricted Notes and in such connection whether or not an underwriting agreement is entered into and
whether or not the registration is an underwritten registration: 

  
 14 








 i. make such representations and warranties to the Holders of such Transfer

requested by them; 
 ii. in connection with an underwritten registration, obtain opinions of counsel to the Issuers and the
Subsidiary Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters, if any, and the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted
Notes being sold) addressed to each selling Holder and the underwriters, if any, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in sales of securities or underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by
such Holders and underwriters; 
 iii. in connection with an underwritten registration, obtain “cold comfort”
letters and updates thereof from the Issuers’ and its subsidiaries’ independent certified public accountants (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Issuers or of any business
acquired by the Issuers for which financial statements are, or are required to be, included in the Registration Statement) addressed to the underwriters, if any, and use reasonable efforts to have such letter addressed to the selling Holders of
Transfer Restricted Notes (to the extent consistent with Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72 of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants), such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily
covered in “cold comfort” letters to underwriters in connection with similar underwritten offerings; 
 iv. enter
into a securities sales agreement with the Holders and an agent of the Holders providing for, among other things, the appointment of such agent for the selling Holders for the purpose of soliciting purchases of Transfer Restricted Notes, which
agreement shall be in form, substance and scope customary for similar offerings; 
 v. if an underwriting agreement is
entered into, cause the same to set forth indemnification provisions and procedures substantially equivalent to the indemnification provisions and procedures set forth in Section 4 hereof with respect to the underwriters and all other
parties to be indemnified pursuant to said Section or, at the request of any underwriters, in the form customarily provided to such underwriters in similar types of transactions; and 

vi. deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested and as are customarily delivered in similar
offerings to the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Notes being sold and the managing underwriters, if any. 
 The above
shall be done 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; 

  
 15 








 o) in the case of a Shelf Registration or if a Prospectus is required to be delivered by any
Participating Broker-Dealer in the case of an Exchange Offer, make available for inspection by representatives of the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes, any underwriters participating in any disposition pursuant to a Shelf Registration
Statement, any Participating Broker-Dealer and any counsel or accountant retained by any of the foregoing, all non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Issuers or any Subsidiary Guarantor
reasonably requested by any such persons, and cause the respective officers, directors, employees, and any other agents of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative,
underwriter, special counsel or accountant in connection with a Registration Statement, and make such representatives of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors available for discussion of such documents as shall be reasonably requested by such
persons; 
 p) if so requested by the Initial Purchasers, in the case of an Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a reasonable time prior to
filing of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a part thereof, any amendment to an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or amendment or supplement to such Prospectus, provide copies of such document to the Initial
Purchasers and to counsel to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes; 
 q) in the case of a Shelf Registration, a reasonable time prior to
filing any Shelf Registration Statement, any Prospectus forming a part thereof, any amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or amendment or supplement to such Prospectus, provide copies of such documents to the Initial Purchasers, if so
requested, to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes to be covered thereby, to counsel for such Holders designated by them and to the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of such Transfer Restricted Notes, if any, make such
changes in any such document prior to the filing thereof relating to such Holders or such Transfer Restricted Notes as the counsel to the Holders or the underwriter or underwriters reasonably request and not file any such document in a form to which
the Majority Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, counsel for such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, or any underwriter shall not have previously been
advised and furnished a copy of or to which the Majority Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, counsel to such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes or any underwriter shall reasonably object, and make the
representatives of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors available for discussion of such document as shall be reasonably requested by such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes, the counsel for such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes or any
underwriter; 
 r) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Notes to
be rated by the appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by the Majority Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, or if requested by the underwriter or underwriters of an underwritten offering of
Transfer Restricted Notes, if any; 
 s) otherwise comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make available to their
security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering at least 12 months which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and Rule 158 thereunder; 

  
 16 








 t) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with FINRA and, in the case of a Shelf
Registration, in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter and its counsel (including any “qualified independent underwriter” that is required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of
FINRA); 
 u) if reasonably requested by any Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by a Shelf Registration Statement, promptly include
in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information with respect to such Holder as such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective
amendment as soon as the Issuers have received notification of the matters to be so included in such filing; 
 v) so long as any Transfer
Restricted Notes remain outstanding, cause each Additional Guarantor upon such Person becoming an Additional Guarantor, to execute a joinder in the form of Annex A to this Agreement and to deliver such joinder to the Initial Purchasers no later than
five Business Days following the execution thereof; and 
 w) amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement for a period of up to 180 days after the last Exchange Date (as such period may be extended pursuant to this Agreement), in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Exchange Notes by Participating Broker-Dealers consistent
with the positions of the staff of the SEC. The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors agree that Participating Broker-Dealers shall be authorized to deliver such Prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available) during such period in
connection with the resales contemplated by this clause (x). 
 In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuers and the
Subsidiary Guarantors may (as a condition to such Holder’s participation in the Shelf Registration) require each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes to furnish to the Issuers and Subsidiary Guarantors such information regarding the Holder and
the proposed distribution by such Holder of such Transfer Restricted Notes as the Issuers and Subsidiary Guarantors may from time to time reasonably request in writing. 

In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Issuers or any Subsidiary
Guarantor of the happening of any event or the discovery of any facts, each of the kind described in Section 3(e)(iii) or (vi) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant
to a Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(k) hereof, and, if so directed by the Issuers and Subsidiary Guarantors, such Holder will
deliver to the Issuers and Subsidiary Guarantors (at its expense) all copies in such Holder’s possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Notes current
at the time of receipt of such notice. 
 If any of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold
in an underwritten offering, the underwriter or underwriters and manager or managers that will manage such offering will be selected by the Majority Holders of such Transfer 

  
 17 








 
Restricted Notes to be included in such offering and shall be acceptable to the Issuers and Subsidiary Guarantors. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes may participate in any underwritten
registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Notes on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and
(b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 

If the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall give any notice to suspend the disposition of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a
Registration Statement, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement by the number of days during the period from and including
the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Holders of such Transfer Restricted Notes shall have received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus necessary to resume such dispositions. 

4. Indemnification; Contribution. 

a) The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors agree to indemnify, jointly and severally, and hold harmless the Initial Purchasers and
each of their affiliates and any other Person under common control with the Initial Purchasers, each Holder, each Participating Broker-Dealer, each Person who participates as an underwriter (any such Person being an “Underwriter”)
and each Person, if any, who controls any Holder or Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows: 

i. against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) pursuant to which Exchange Notes or Transfer Restricted Notes were registered under the 1933 Act, including all documents
incorporated therein by reference, any Free Writing Prospectus used in violation of this Agreement or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act, or the omission or alleged omission
therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 

ii. against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate
amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue
statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 4(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors; and 

  
 18 








 iii. against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and
disbursements of counsel chosen by any indemnified party), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any
claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under subparagraph (ii) above; 

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of
any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning any Holder or Underwriter furnished to the Issuers by the Holder or Underwriter expressly for use in
a Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto); and provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection shall not inure to the benefit of any
Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Notes concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Notes was required to be delivered by such Holder or
Participating Broker-Dealer under the 1933 Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not sent or given to such person, at or
prior to the sale of such Notes to such person, a copy of such prospectus if the Issuers had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer. 

b) Each Holder, severally, but not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuers, the Subsidiary Guarantors, each Underwriter and
the other selling Holders, and each of their respective directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls the Issuers, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any Underwriter or any other selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 4(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or
omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Shelf Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus included therein (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information with respect to such Holder furnished to the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors by such Holder expressly for use in the Shelf Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement
thereto); provided, however, that no such Holder shall be liable for any claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to such Shelf Registration
Statement. 
 c) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action or
proceeding commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially
prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of such action;
provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be 

  
 19 








 
counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying party or parties be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from
their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without
the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any
claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 4 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent
(i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a
failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 
 d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4, is for any
reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the
Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 

The relative fault of the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors on the one hand and the Holders and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers, the Subsidiary
Guarantors, the Holders or the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 

The Issuers, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Holders and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to above in this Section 4. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 4 shall be deemed to include
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim
whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 
 No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

  
 20 








 For purposes of this Section 4, each Person, if any, who controls an Initial
Purchaser or Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser or Holder, and each director of the Issuers or any Subsidiary
Guarantor, and each Person, if any, who controls the Issuers or any Subsidiary Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Issuers and the
Subsidiary Guarantors. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 4 are several in proportion to the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule A to the
Purchase Agreement and not joint. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4, in no event shall a Holder be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which all of the Notes sold by such
Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay under Section 4(b) hereof. 
 The
remedies provided for in this Section 4 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity. 

The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 4 shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or any Holder or any Person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any Holder, or by or on behalf of the Issuers or
the Guarantors or the officers or directors of or any Person controlling the Issuers or the Guarantors, (iii) acceptance of any of the Exchange Notes and (iv) any sale of Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a Shelf Registration
Statement; provided, however, that the indemnity and contribution rights provided for, in this Section 4 shall not extend to any losses, liabilities or other damages arising out of actions occurring after the termination of
this Agreement. 
 5. Miscellaneous. 

1. Rule 144 and Rule 144A. For so long as the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors are subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 13 or 15 of the 1934 Act, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors covenant that they will file and furnish the reports required to be filed by them under the 1933 Act and Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and
regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder. If the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors cease to be so required to file and furnish such reports, the Issuers and Subsidiary Guarantors covenant that they will upon the request of any Holder of
Transfer Restricted Notes (a) make publicly available such information as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, (b) deliver such information to a prospective purchaser as is necessary to permit sales
pursuant to Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and take such further action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes may reasonably request, and (c) take such further action that is reasonable in the circumstances, in each case, to the extent
required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell its Transfer Restricted Notes without registration under the 1933 Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, as such Rule may be amended from
time to time, (ii) Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or (iii) any similar rules or regulations hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes, the
Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether they have complied with such requirements. 

  
 21 








 2. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors have not entered into,
and the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not after the date of this Agreement enter into, any agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with
the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not and will not for the term of this Agreement in any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Issuers’ or Subsidiary Guarantors’ other issued and
outstanding securities under any such agreements. 
 3. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of
this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors have obtained the written consent of the Majority
Holders affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or departure. 
 4. Notices. All notices and other communications
provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, registered first-class mail, telex, telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight delivery (a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder
to the Issuers by means of a notice given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4, which address initially, and until so changed, is the address set forth in the Purchase Agreement with respect to the Initial Purchasers;
and (b) if to the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors, initially at the Issuers’ address set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and thereafter at such other address of which notice is given in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5.4. 
 All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if
personally delivered; two Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when answered back, if telexed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and on the next Business Day if timely delivered to an air courier
guaranteeing overnight delivery. 
 Copies of all such notices, demands, or other communications shall be concurrently delivered by the
person giving the same to the Trustee under the Indenture at the address specified therein. 
 5. Successor and Assigns. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of each of the parties, including, without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be
deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of Transfer Restricted Notes in violation of the terms of the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Transfer Restricted Notes, in any manner,
whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Transfer Restricted Notes shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Transfer Restricted Notes such person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to
be bound by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including the restrictions on resale set forth in this Agreement and, if applicable, the Purchase Agreement, and such person shall be entitled to receive the benefits
hereof. The Initial Purchasers (in their capacity as Initial Purchasers) shall have no liability or obligation to the Issuers or the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to any failure by a Holder to comply with, or any breach by any Holder of, any of
the obligations of such Holder under this Agreement

 6. Third Party Beneficiaries. The Initial Purchasers (even if the Initial Purchasers are not
Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes) shall be third party beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder between the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce
such agreements directly to the extent they deem such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect their rights or the rights of Holders hereunder. Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes shall be a third party beneficiary to the agreements made
hereunder between the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable
to protect its rights hereunder. 
 7. Specific Enforcement. Without limiting the remedies available to the Initial Purchasers and the
Holders, the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors acknowledge that any failure by the Issuers or the Subsidiary Guarantors to comply with their obligations under Sections 2.1 through 2.4 hereof may result in material irreparable
injury to the Initial Purchasers or the Holders for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it would not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchasers or any
Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Issuers’ and Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under Sections 2.1 through 2.4 hereof. 

8. Restriction on Resales. Until the expiration of one year after the original issuance of the Notes and the Guarantees, the Issuers and the
Subsidiary Guarantors will not, and will cause their “affiliates” (as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(1) under the 1933 Act) not to, resell any Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees which are “restricted securities” (as such term
is defined under Rule 144(a)(3) under the 1933 Act) that have been reacquired by any of them and shall immediately upon any purchase of any such Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees submit such Notes and Subsidiary Guarantees to the Trustee for
cancellation. 
 9. 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. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature. 

10. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

 11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the state of New York_New YN without
regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.

 12. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the
application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected or
impaired thereby.
