“Trustee”). 
 The Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee agree as follows for the benefit of each other and
for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders (as defined) of the             % Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”): 

ARTICLE 1 

DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION 
 BY REFERENCE 
 Section 1.01 Definitions. 

“144A Global Note” means a Global Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto bearing the Global Note Legend and
the Private Placement Legend and deposited with or on behalf of, and registered in the name of, the Depositary or its nominee that will be issued in a denomination equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes initially sold in reliance on
Rule 144A. 
 “Acquired Debt” means, with respect to any specified Person: 

(1) Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or became a Subsidiary
of such specified Person, whether or not such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other Person merging with or into, or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, such specified Person; and 

(2) Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such specified Person. 

“Additional Notes” means additional Notes (other than the Initial Notes) issued under this Indenture in accordance with
Sections 2.02 and 4.09 hereof, as part of the same series as the Initial Notes. 
 “Affiliate” of any
specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control,” as used with respect to any
Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise. For purposes of this
definition, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with” have correlative meanings.  
 “Agent” means any Registrar or Paying Agent. 

“Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any Note on any redemption date, the greater of: 

  
 1 








 (1) 1.0% of the principal amount of the Note; or 

(2) the excess of: 
 (a) the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of the Note at
                    , 2016 (such redemption price being set forth in the table appearing in Section 3.07 hereof) plus (ii) all required
interest payments due on the Note through                     , 2016 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date), computed using a
discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points, over 
 (b) the
principal amount of the Note. 
 “Applicable Procedures” means, with respect to any transfer or exchange of or
for beneficial interests in any Global Note, the rules and procedures of the Depositary, Euroclear and Clearstream that apply to such transfer or exchange. 
 “Asset Sale” means: 
 (1) the sale, lease,
conveyance or other disposition of any assets or rights by the Partnership or any of the Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole will be governed by Section 4.15 and/or by Section 5.01 and not by the provisions of Section 4.10 hereof; and 

(2) the issuance of Equity Interests by any of the Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries or the sale by the
Partnership or any of the Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries of Equity Interests in any of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries. 
 Notwithstanding the preceding, none of the following items will be deemed to be an Asset Sale: 
 (1) any single transaction or series of related transactions that involves assets having a Fair Market Value of less than $10.0 million; 

(2) a transfer of assets between or among the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(3) an issuance or sale of Equity Interests by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership to the Partnership or to a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership; 
 (4) the sale, lease or other transfer of inventory, products,
services or accounts receivable in the ordinary course of business and any sale or other disposition of damaged, worn-out or obsolete assets in the ordinary course of business (including the abandonment or other disposition of intellectual property
that is, in the reasonable judgment of the Partnership, no longer economically practicable to maintain or useful in the conduct of the business of the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as whole); 

  
 2 








 (5) licenses and sublicenses by the Partnership or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of software or intellectual property in the ordinary course of business; 
 (6) any surrender or
waiver of contract rights or settlement, release, recovery on or surrender of contract, tort or other claims in the ordinary course of business; 
 (7) the granting of Liens not prohibited by Section 4.12 hereof; 
 (8) the sale or other disposition of cash or Cash Equivalents; 

(9) any asset sold in connection with a sale and leaseback transaction in compliance with Section 4.09(b)(12) hereof;

 (10) the sale of assets by the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries consisting of leases and subleases
of real property solely to the extent that such real property is not necessary for the normal conduct of operations of the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(11) foreclosure of assets of the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(12) the unwinding of any Hedging Obligations; 

(13) the issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) or Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 4.09
hereof; 
 (14) the issuance of Equity Interests in any of the Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the
extent consisting of directors’ qualifying shares or shares required by applicable law to be held by a Person; 
 (15) the sale or discounting of receivables in the ordinary course of business; 
 (16) a Restricted Payment that does not violate Section 4.07 hereof or a Permitted Investment; and 
 (17) any payment or transfer of assets pursuant to or contemplated by (i) the Collections Agreements as in effect on the date of this Indenture or (ii) the Omnibus Agreement or the Contribution
Agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture, and as amended or modified thereafter on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, considered in the aggregate taking into
account all such substantially contemporaneous amendments and modifications of such agreements, as reasonably determined by the Partnership. 
 “Attributable Debt” in respect of a sale and leaseback transaction means, at the time of determination, the present value of the obligation of the lessee for net rental payments during
the remaining term of the lease included in such sale and leaseback transaction including any period for which such lease has been extended or may, at the option of the lessor, be extended. Such present value shall be calculated using a discount
rate equal to the rate of interest implicit in such 

  
 3 








 
transaction, determined in accordance with GAAP; provided, however, that if such sale and leaseback transaction results in a Capital Lease Obligation, the amount of Indebtedness
represented thereby will be determined in accordance with the definition of Capital Lease Obligation. 
 “Bankruptcy
Law” means Title 11, U.S. Code or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. 
 “Beneficial
Owner” has the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that in calculating the beneficial ownership of any particular “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the
Exchange Act), such “person” will be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all securities that such “person” has the right to acquire by conversion or exercise of other securities, whether such right is currently exercisable or
is exercisable only after the passage of time. The terms “Beneficially Owns” and “Beneficially Owned” have a corresponding meaning. For purposes of this definition, a Person shall be deemed not to Beneficially Own securities that
are subject to a securities purchase agreement, merger agreement or similar agreement until the consummation of the transactions or, as applicable, the series of related transactions contemplated thereby. 

“Board of Directors” means: 
 (1) with respect to a corporation, the board of directors of the corporation or any committee thereof duly authorized to act on behalf of such board; 

(2) with respect to a partnership, the board of directors of the general partner of the partnership; 

(3) with respect to a limited liability company, the board of directors or other governing body, and in the absence of the
same, the manager or board of managers or the managing member or members or any controlling committee of managing members thereof; and 
 (4) with respect to any other Person, the board or committee of such Person serving a similar function. 
 So long as the Partnership is organized as a limited partnership, references to its Board of Directors are to the Board of Directors of the General Partner. 

“Business Day” means any day other than a Legal Holiday. 

“Capital Lease Obligation” means, at the time any determination is to be made, the amount of the liability in respect of
a capital lease that would at that time be required to be capitalized on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the Stated Maturity thereof shall be the date of the last payment of rent or any other amount due under such lease prior
to the first date upon which such lease may be prepaid by the lessee without payment of a penalty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any lease (whether entered into before or after the date of this Indenture) that would have been classified as an
operating lease pursuant to GAAP as in effect on the date of this Indenture will be deemed not to represent a Capital Lease Obligation. 

  
 4 








 “Capital Stock” means: 

(1) in the case of a corporation, corporate stock; 

(2) in the case of an association or business entity, any and all shares, interests, participations, rights or other
equivalents (however designated) of corporate stock; 
 (3) in the case of a partnership or limited liability
company, partnership interests (whether general or limited) or membership interests; and 
 (4) any other
interest or participation that confers on a Person the right to receive a share of the profits and losses of, or distributions of assets of, the issuing Person, but excluding from all of the foregoing any debt securities convertible into Capital
Stock, whether or not such debt securities include any right of participation with Capital Stock. 
 “Cash
Equivalents” means: 
 (1) marketable direct obligations issued by, or unconditionally guaranteed by,
the government of the United States of America or issued by any agency thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America in each case maturing within one year from the date of acquisition; 

(2) certificates of deposit, time deposits, eurodollar time deposits or overnight bank deposits having maturities of six
months or less from the date of acquisition issued by any commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof having combined capital and surplus of not less than $500.0 million; 

(3) commercial paper of an issuer rated at least A-1 by S&P or P-1 by Moody’s, or carrying an equivalent rating
by a nationally recognized rating agency, if both of the two named rating agencies cease publishing ratings of commercial paper issuers generally, and maturing within six months from the date of acquisition; 

(4) repurchase obligations of any commercial bank satisfying the requirements of clause (2) of this definition,
having a term of not more than 30 days, with respect to securities issued or fully guaranteed or insured by the government of the United States of America; 
 (5) securities with maturities of one year or less from the date of acquisition issued or fully guaranteed by any state, commonwealth or territory of the United States of America, by any political
subdivision or taxing authority of any such state, commonwealth or territory or by any foreign government, the securities of which state, commonwealth, territory, political subdivision, taxing authority or foreign government (as the case may be) are
rated at least A by S&P or A by Moody’s; 

  
 5 








 (6) securities with maturities of six months or less from the date of
acquisition backed by standby letters of credit issued by any commercial bank satisfying the requirements of clause (2) of this definition; 
 (7) money market mutual or similar funds that invest exclusively in assets satisfying the requirements of clauses (1) through (6) of this definition; or 

(8) money market funds that (i) comply with the criteria set forth in SEC Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended, (ii) are rated AAA by S&P and Aaa by Moody’s and (iii) have portfolio assets of at least $5.0 billion. 
 “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: 
 (1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of
the properties or assets of the Partnership (including Equity Interests of Restricted Subsidiaries) and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any Person (including any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange
Act)) other than any Permitted Holder; 
 (2) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution
of the Partnership; 
 (3) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or
consolidation) the result of which is that any Person (including any “person” (as defined above)) other than any Permitted Holder other than the underwriter(s) in connection with a bona fide public offering becomes the Beneficial Owner,
directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of the General Partner (measured by voting power rather than number of shares, units or the like); 
 (4) the removal of the General Partner by the limited partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement; 
 (5) the first day on which a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner are not Continuing Directors; or 

(6) the first day on which the Partnership ceases to own at least 100% of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of
Finance Corp., except as a result of a transaction in compliance with Section 5.01 hereof. 
 Notwithstanding the
preceding, a conversion of the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from a limited partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other form of entity to a limited liability company, corporation, limited partnership or other
form of entity or an exchange of all of the outstanding Equity Interests in one form of entity for Equity Interests in another form of entity shall not constitute a Change of Control, so long as following such conversion or exchange the
“persons” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) who Beneficially Owned the Capital Stock of the Partnership immediately prior to such transactions continue to Beneficially Own in the aggregate more than 50% of
the Voting Stock 

  
 6 








 
of such entity, or continue to Beneficially Own sufficient Equity Interests in such entity or its general partner, as applicable, to elect a majority of its directors, managers, trustees or other
persons serving in a similar capacity for such entity or its general partner, as applicable, and, in either case no “person,” other than any Permitted Holder, Beneficially Owns more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such entity or its

as of January         , 2013, among Middletown Coke Company, LLC, Middletown Cogeneration Company LLC, and Sun Coal & Coke LLC. 

“Consolidated EBITDA” means, the Consolidated Net Income for such period plus the sum of: 

(1) provision for taxes, based on income or profits of the Partnership and the Restricted Subsidiaries for such period, to

 ARTICLE 2 
 THE NOTES 
 Section 2.01 Form and Dating. 

(a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.
The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. 
 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this
Indenture and the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the
express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 (b) Global
Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in
definitive form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent
such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes
represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of
outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof. 

(c) Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear
System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream will be applicable to transfers of beneficial
interests in the Regulation S Global Note that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream. 
 Section 2.02
Execution and Authentication. 
 At least one Officer must sign the Notes for each Issuer by manual, facsimile or
electronically transmitted signature. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a
Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be valid. 
 A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual
signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 

  
 34 









 The Trustee will, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuers signed by an
Officer of each Issuer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including any Additional Notes. The aggregate principal amount of
Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Issuers pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 hereof.  

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuers to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate
Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the
Partnership. 
 Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

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

Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 
 The Issuers will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent
for the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all
money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuers or a Subsidiary) will have no further
liability for the money. If the Issuers or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings
relating to the Issuers, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

  
 35 









 Section 2.05 Holder Lists. 

The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and
addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers will furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the
Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and the Issuers shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). 

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. 
 (a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary
or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Issuers for Definitive Notes if: 

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

(2) the Issuers, at their option but subject to the Depositary’s requirements, notify the Trustee in writing that
they elect to cause the issuance of the Definitive Notes; or 
 (3) there has occurred and is continuing an Event
of Default and the Depositary notifies the Trustee of its decision to exchange such Global Note for Definitive Notes. 
 Upon
the occurrence of the preceding events in (1), (2) or (3) above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided
in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and
delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a); however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as
provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) hereof. 
 (b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global
Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted
Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either subparagraph
(1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

Placement Legend. Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written orders or instructions shall be required
to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(1). 
 (2) All
Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(1) above, the transferor of such beneficial interest must

 (A) both: 

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

Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. 
 Upon satisfaction of all of the
requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s)

interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2)

 If any such transfer is effected pursuant to paragraph (4) above at a time when an
Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuers shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(4) above.

HEREBY UPON DELIVERY TO THE TRUSTEE BY US OR THE HOLDER THEREOF OF A WRITTEN REQUEST FOR THE REMOVAL HEREOF, IN ANY CASE AT ANY TIME AFTER THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE. AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS “OFFSHORE TRANSACTION,”
“UNITED STATES” AND “U.S. PERSON” HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 DURING
THE PERIOD ENDING ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST DATE OF ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF THE NOTES, NO “AFFILIATE” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144) WILL BE PERMITTED TO RESELL ANY OF THE NOTES THAT CONSTITUTE “RESTRICTED SECURITIES” UNDER RULE 144 THAT
HAVE BEEN REACQUIRED BY ANY OF THEM.” 
 (B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Global Note or
Definitive Note issued pursuant to subparagraphs (b)(4), (c)(2), (c)(3), (d)(2), (d)(3), (e)(2), or (e)(3) of this Section 2.06 (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) will not bear the Private Placement Legend.

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

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

TRANSFERRED TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE ISSUERS. 

  
 45 









 UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR NOTES IN DEFINITIVE FORM, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE
TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE
OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY. UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (55 WATER STREET, NEW YORK, NEW YORK) (“DTC”), TO THE ISSUERS OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER,
EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS
MAY BE REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.”

 (g) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular
Global Note have been exchanged for beneficial interests in another Global Note or Definitive Notes, or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or
retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the
form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the
Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such
other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 

(h) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 

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

  
 46 









 (2) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a
Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuers may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other
than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.05 hereof). 

(3) The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in
whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 
 (4) All Global Notes and
Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes will be the valid obligations of the Issuers, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global
Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 (5) Neither the
Registrar nor the Issuers will be required: 
 (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; 

(B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed

and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuers shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (7) The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof. 

(8) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this

 Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuers and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuers will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an
indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is
replaced. The Issuers may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note. 
 Every replacement Note is an additional obligation
of the Issuers and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes. 
 The Notes outstanding at any time are
all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those
described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers holds the Note; however, Notes held by the
Partnership or a Subsidiary of the Partnership shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(a) hereof. 
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.

 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and
interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuers, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof)
holds, by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on a redemption date or other maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.

 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Issuers or any Guarantor, or by any Person directly or
indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuers or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in
relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that the Trustee knows are so owned will be so disregarded. 

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 
 Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be
substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuers consider appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers will prepare and the
Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 

  
 48 









 Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

 Section 2.11 Cancellation. 
 The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange
or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will dispose of the canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the
Exchange Act). The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest. 
 If the Issuers default in a payment
of interest on the Notes, they will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate
provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuers will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuers will fix or cause to be
fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the
Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers) will give to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

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

 ARTICLE 3 
 REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

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

(b) the redemption date; 
 (c) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed; 
 (d) the redemption price (if

 (e) the other information required by Section 3.03 to be
included in the notice of such redemption. 
 Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Notes will be selected by lot or such other method as DTC may require.

 In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed will be selected, unless otherwise provided
herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. 
 The Trustee will promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.
Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to
portions of Notes called for redemption. 
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuers will give a notice of redemption to each Holder whose
Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or 11 hereof. 
 The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state: 

(a) the redemption date; 
 (b) the redemption price (if then determined and otherwise the method of determination); 
 (c) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal
amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note; 

  
 50 









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

(e) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 

(f) that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption ceases
to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (g) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to
which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
 (h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or
accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 
 At the Issuers’ request,
the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ names and at the Issuers’ expense; provided, however, that the Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof requests that the
Trustee give such notice and sets forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 

Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 
 Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable (subject to the provisions of the next succeeding sentence)
on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional, except that any redemption pursuant to Section 3.07(a) hereof may, at the Partnership’s discretion, be subject to completion of the related
Equity Offering. 
 Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

No later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuers will deposit with the Trustee or with the
Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuers any money deposited with the
Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuers in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

If the Issuers comply with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease
to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or accepted for purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid
interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption or tendered for purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of
the failure of the Issuers to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid
principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. 

  
 51 









 Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

 Section 3.08 Mandatory Redemption. 

The Issuers are not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 

Section 3.09 Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. 

In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Partnership is required to commence an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders to
purchase Notes, it will follow the procedures specified below. 
 The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and all
holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The Asset Sale Offer
will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than
three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Partnership will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and such other pari passu
Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and other Indebtedness tendered
in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. 
 If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is
registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 
 Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Partnership will give a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice will contain all instructions and materials
necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state: 
 (a) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open; 

  
 53 









 (b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 

(c) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest; 

(d) that, unless the Partnership defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will
cease to accrue interest on and after the Purchase Date; 
 (e) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an
Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; 
 (f) that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to
the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Partnership, a depositary, if appointed by the Partnership, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 

(g) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Partnership, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be,
receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, electronic image scan, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement
that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
 (h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes
surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount allocated to the purchase of Notes in the Asset Sale Offer, the Notes to be purchased shall be selected by such method as DTC may require based on the principal amount of Notes surrendered
(with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Partnership so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased); and 

(i) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of
the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 
 On or before the Purchase Date, the Partnership will, to the
extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer and required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10
hereof, or if Notes in an aggregate principal amount less than the Offer Amount allocated to the purchase of Notes in the Asset Sale Offer have been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes
properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Partnership, the depositary for the
Asset Sale Offer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such
Holder and accepted by the Partnership for purchase, and the Issuers will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, 

  
 54 









 
upon written request from the Partnership, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any
unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Partnership to the Holder thereof. The Partnership will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date.

 ARTICLE 4 
 COVENANTS 
 Section 4.01 Payment of Notes. 

The Issuers will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner
provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuers or a Subsidiary of the Partnership, holds as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the due date
money deposited by the Issuers in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. 
 The Issuers will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at a rate that is 1% higher than the then applicable interest rate on the
Notes to the extent lawful; they will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate to the extent
lawful. 
 Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Issuers will maintain in the City of Pittsburgh, in the State of Pennsylvania, an office or agency (which may be an office of the
Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuers in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuers will give
prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuers fail to maintain any such required office or agency or fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof,
such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
 The
Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no
such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Issuers of their obligation to maintain an office or agency in the City of Pittsburgh in the State of Pennsylvania for such purposes. The Issuers will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

Section 4.03 Reports. 
 (a) Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC and subject to the other paragraphs set forth in this Section 4.03, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Partnership will

 55 









 (1) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with
the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Partnership were required to file such reports, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information
only, a report thereon by the Partnership’s certified independent accountants; and 
 (2) all current
reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Partnership were required to file such reports, 
 provided
that the time period for filing obligations on Form 8-K shall be ten (10) Business Days after the event giving rise to the obligation to file such report. 
 All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to such reports, provided that in no event shall any of such reports be
required to contain separate financial information or statements for guarantors or subsidiaries that would be required under Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept the Partnership’s filings for
any reason, the Partnership will post the reports referred to in Section 4.03(a) above on its website within the time periods contemplated above. The Partnership will at all times comply with TIA §314(a). 

(b) Any and all Defaults or Events of Default arising from a failure to file in a timely manner any information or report required by
this Section 4.03 shall be deemed cured (and the Partnership shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4.03 upon filing such information or report as contemplated by this Section 4.03 (but without regard to the date on
which such information or report is so filed); provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders under Article 6 hereof if the principal, premium, if any, and interest have been accelerated in accordance with the terms of
this Indenture and such acceleration has not been rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure. 
 (c) For so long as any Notes
remain outstanding, the Issuers and the Guarantors will furnish to the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Notes, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 

(d) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt
of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuers’ compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is
entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
 Section 4.04 Compliance Certificate. 

(a) The Issuers and each Guarantor (to the extent that such Guarantor is so required under the TIA) shall deliver to the Trustee, within

 Section 4.05 Taxes. 

The Partnership will pay, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and

 Each of the Issuers and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit
or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and each of the Issuers and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and
permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted. 
 Section 4.07 Restricted
Payments.

 (4) make
any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (1) through (4) being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), 
 unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, no Default that could become an Event of Default pursuant to clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 hereof and no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment and either:

Restricted Payment will not be considered to be net proceeds of Equity Interests for purposes of clause (A)(ii) of Section 4.07(a) hereof and will not be considered to be net cash proceeds from an Equity Offering for purposes of
Section 3.07 hereof; 
 (3) the payment of any dividend (or, in the case of any partnership or limited

of any non-cash dividend paid within 60 days after the date of its declaration shall be determined as of the date of declaration of such non-cash dividend. For purposes of determining 

  
 61 









 
compliance with this Section 4.07, (x) in the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in clauses
(1) through (13) of Section 4.07(b) hereof, or is permitted pursuant to Section 4.07(a) hereof, the Partnership will be permitted to classify such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) on the date made or later reclassify such
Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.07; and (y) in the event a Restricted Payment is made pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of Section 4.07(a) hereof, the Partnership will be
permitted to classify whether all or any portion thereof is being (and in the absence of such classification shall be deemed to have classified the minimum amount possible as having been) made with Incremental Funds. 

Section 4.08 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. 

(a) The Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist
or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Partnership or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the priority that any series of
Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary has in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions before dividends or liquidating distributions are paid in respect of common stock of such Restricted Subsidiary shall not constitute a restriction on
the ability to make dividends or distributions on Capital Stock for purposes of this Section 4.08; 
 (2)
make loans or advances to the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness incurred by the Partnership
or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or 

(3) sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or assets to the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

 (b) The restrictions in Section 4.08(a) hereof will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by
reason of:

Facilities) as in effect on the date of this Indenture and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments, restatements,
modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date
of this Indenture; 

  
 62 









 (2) this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees; 

(3) agreements governing other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.09 hereof and
any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the restrictions therein are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those
contained in this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees; 
 (4) any applicable law, rule, regulation,
approval, license, permit or order; 
 (5) any agreement or instrument of a Person acquired by the Partnership or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including those governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock) as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of
such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of
Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred;

(9) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 

(10) Liens permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.12 hereof that limit the right of the debtor to
dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 
 (11) provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of
assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale and leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a Restricted Investment) entered into with
the approval of the General Partner’s Board of Directors, which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such agreements; 

  
 63 









 (12) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by
customers, lessors, suppliers, or required by insurance surety bonding companies, in each case in the ordinary course of business; 
 (13) in the case of any Foreign Subsidiary, any encumbrance or restriction contained in the terms of any Indebtedness or any agreement pursuant to which such Indebtedness was incurred if either
(a) the encumbrance or restriction applies only in the event of a Payment Default or a default with respect to a financial covenant in such Indebtedness or agreement or (b) the Partnership determines that any such encumbrance of
restriction will not materially affect the Partnership’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the General Partner, whose determination shall be conclusive;

 (14) for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture, encumbrances or restrictions of the type
described in Section 4.08(a)(3) above arising or agreed to (i) in the ordinary course of business that restrict in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is subject to a lease, license,

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

(b) Section 4.09(a) hereof will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness or issuances of
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 
 (1)
the incurrence by the Partnership and any Guarantor of Indebtedness and letters of credit under Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a
principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the greater of (x) $150.0 million and (y) 15.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets as of the date of
such incurrence; 
 (2) the incurrence by the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing
Indebtedness;

 (6) the incurrence by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Partnership and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however,
that: 
 (A) if the Partnership or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the
Partnership or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be unsecured and expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Partnership, or the Note Guarantee, in the case
of a Guarantor; and 
 (B) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such
Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary
of the Partnership, 
 will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Partnership or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); 
 (7) the issuance by any of the
Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Partnership or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Preferred Stock; provided, however, that:

 (B) any sale or other transfer of any such Preferred Stock to a Person that is not either the Partnership or a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership,

such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (7); 
 (8) the incurrence by the Partnership or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations not for speculative purposes; 
 (9) the Guarantee by
the Partnership or any of the Guarantors of Indebtedness of the Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership to the extent that the guaranteed Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09;

 66 









 (10) the incurrence by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
of Indebtedness in connection with one or more standby or trade-related letters of credit, performance bonds, bid bonds, appeal bonds, bankers acceptances, insurance obligations, workers’ compensation claims, health or other types of social
security benefits, surety bonds, completion guarantees or other similar bonds and obligations, including self-bonding arrangements, in the ordinary course of business or pursuant to self-insurance obligations and not in connection with the borrowing
of money or the obtaining of advances; 
 (11) the incurrence by the Partnership or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five Business
Days; 
 (12) Indebtedness of the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary incurred in connection with any sale
and leaseback transaction, provided the Attributable Debt with respect to all sale and leaseback transactions in the aggregate at any one time outstanding shall not exceed the greater of (x) $25.0 million and (y) 2.5% of
Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (determined at the time of incurrence of such Attributable Debt); 
 (13) the
incurrence by the Partnership or its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness;

 (17) the incurrence by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of liability in respect of Indebtedness of any Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Partnership or any Joint Venture but only to the
extent that such liability is the result of the Partnership’s or any such Restricted Subsidiary’s being a general partner or member of, or owner of an Equity Interest in, such Unrestricted Subsidiary or Joint Venture and not as guarantor
of such Indebtedness and provided that after giving effect to any such incurrence, the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness incurred under this clause (17) and then outstanding does not exceed $25.0 million; and 

  
 67 









 (18) the incurrence by the Partnership or any Guarantor of additional
Indebtedness or the issuance by the Partnership of any Disqualified Stock in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred or Disqualified Stock
issued to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (18), not to exceed the greater of (x) $75.0 million and (y) 7.5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined on the
date of such incurrence or issuance. 
 The Partnership will not incur, and will not permit any Guarantor to incur, any
Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Partnership or such Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the
Notes or the applicable Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Partnership or any Guarantor
solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis. 
 For purposes of determining
compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (18) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant
to Section 4.09(a) hereof, the Partnership will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this
Section 4.09. Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Indenture will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided
by Section 4.09(b)(1). 
 The accrual of interest or Preferred Stock dividends, the accretion or amortization of original
issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of Preferred Stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on
Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional securities of the same class of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock for
purposes of this Section 4.09; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Partnership as accrued to the extent required by the definition of such term. For purposes of determining compliance
with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be utilized, calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate
in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this covenant shall not be deemed
to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. 
 The amount of any Indebtedness
outstanding as of any date will be: 
 (a) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with
original issue discount; 

  
 68 









 (b) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

 (c) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

 (1) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and 

(2) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person. 

Section 4.10 Asset Sales. 
 (a) The Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 

(1) The Partnership (or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale
at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(2) at least 75% of the aggregate consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary
and in all other Asset Sales since the date of this Indenture is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 

(A) any liabilities, as shown on the Partnership’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Partnership or any
Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a novation or indemnity agreement
that releases the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies against further liability; 
 (B)
any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are promptly, but in any event within 180 days of the closing (subject to ordinary settlement periods), converted by the
Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion; 

(C) any Capital Stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2) or (4) of Section 4.10(b) hereof;
and 
 (D) any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary in the
Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (D) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (x) $20.0 million and
(y) 2.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets at the time of receipt of such outstanding Designated Non-Cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and
without giving effect to subsequent changes in value). 

  
 69 









 (b) Within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale (or within 180
days after such 450-day period in the event the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary enters into a binding commitment with respect to such application), the Partnership (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may apply an amount equal to such Net
Proceeds: 
 (1) to repay (i) Indebtedness and other Obligations under a Credit Facility that are secured by
a Lien and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto and (ii) all Hedging Obligations related to such Indebtedness; 

(2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after
giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership; 
 (3) to make capital expenditures; or 
 (4) to acquire other assets
that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business. 
 Pending the final application of
any Net Proceeds, the Partnership (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 

(c) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(b) above will constitute
“Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, within five days thereof, the Partnership will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and all holders of
other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem,
on a pro rata basis, the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection
therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, prepayment or
redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer,
the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary may use an amount equal to those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount
of Excess Proceeds allocated to the purchase of Notes, the Notes to be purchased will be selected by such method as DTC may require based on the amounts tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Partnership so that only
Notes in denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased). Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 

  
 70 









 (d) The Partnership will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act
and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10, the Partnership will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 hereof or
this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance. 
 Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a) The Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to or sell, lease, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or Guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any
Affiliate of the Partnership involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $5.0 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable (as reasonably
determined by the Partnership) to the Partnership or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 

(2) the Partnership delivers to the Trustee: 

(A) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate
consideration in excess of $25.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the General Partner set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.11 and that such
Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner; and 
 (B) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $75.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Partnership or
such Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing. 
 (b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof: 

(1) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, termination agreement, officer or director indemnification agreement
or any similar arrangement entered into by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto; 

  
 71 









 (2) transactions between or among the Partnership and/or its Restricted
Subsidiaries; 
 (3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Partnership) that
is an Affiliate of the Partnership solely because the Partnership owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person; 

(4) payment of reasonable and customary fees and reimbursements of expenses (pursuant to indemnity arrangements or
otherwise) of officers, directors, employees or consultants of the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (5) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Partnership; 
 (6) loans or advances to officers, directors or employees of the General Partner, the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past
practice or Guarantees in respect thereof or otherwise made on their behalf (including payment on such Guarantees); 
 (7) Restricted Payments that do not violate Section 4.07 hereof; 
 (8) payments to an Affiliate in respect of the Notes or any other Indebtedness of the Issuers or any Restricted Subsidiary on the same basis as concurrent payments made or offered to be made in respect
thereof to non-Affiliates; 
 (9) transactions between the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and
any Person that would not otherwise constitute an Affiliate Transaction except for the fact that one director of such other Person is also a director of the General Partner or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable; provided that such director
abstains from voting as a director of the General Partner or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, on any matter involving such other Person; 
 (10) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services (including pursuant to joint venture agreements) or lessors or lessees of
property in the ordinary course of business on terms, taken as a whole, that no less favorable in any material respect than would have been obtained at such time from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Partnership, as reasonably determined by
the Partnership; 
 (11) payments or transactions arising under or contemplated by any contract, agreement,
instrument or arrangement in effect on the date of this Indenture, as amended, modified or replaced from time to time so long as the amended, modified or new agreements, taken as a whole at the time such amendments, modifications or replacements are
executed, are not materially less favorable to the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, than those in effect on the date of this Indenture, as reasonably determined by the Partnership; 

  
 72 









 (12) any transaction for which the Partnership or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, obtains a favorable written opinion from a nationally recognized investment banking firm as to the fairness of the transaction to the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries from a financial point of view;

 (13) payments or transactions (other than purchases or sales of assets) effected in accordance with the terms
of the Partnership Agreement, the Omnibus Agreement, the Contribution Agreement, the Collections Agreements and any other agreements that are described in the Offering Memorandum and identified in this Indenture, in each case as such agreements are
in effect on the date of this Indenture, and any amendment or replacement of any of such agreements so long as such amendment or replacement agreement is not materially less advantageous to the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, than the agreement so amended or replaced, as reasonably determined by the Partnership; and 
 (14) any
Affiliate Transaction with a Person in its capacity as a holder of Indebtedness or Capital Stock of the Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership; provided that such Person is treated no more favorably than the other holders
of Indebtedness or Capital Stock of the Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary, as reasonably determined by the Partnership. 

Section 4.12 Liens. 
 The Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness on any
asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens, without effectively providing that the Notes or any Note Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary, if applicable, is equally and ratably secured with (or prior to if the obligation to be
secured by the Lien is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) the Indebtedness so secured for so long as such Indebtedness is so secured. 

  
 73 









 Section 4.13 Business Activities. 

The Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than Permitted
Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 

Finance Corp. may not incur Indebtedness unless (1) the Partnership is a co-issuer or guarantor of such Indebtedness or (2) the
net proceeds of such Indebtedness are loaned to the Partnership or its other Restricted Subsidiaries, used to acquire outstanding debt securities issued by the Partnership or used to repay Indebtedness of the Partnership or its other Restricted
Subsidiaries as permitted under Section 4.09 hereof. Finance Corp. may not engage in any business not related directly or indirectly to obtaining money or arranging financing for the Partnership or its Restricted Subsidiaries. 

Section 4.14 Organizational Existence. 
 Subject to Article 5 and Section 10.04 hereof, the Partnership shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect: 

(a) its limited partnership existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in
accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Partnership or any such Restricted Subsidiary; and 
 (b) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not be required to preserve any
such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Partnership shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the
Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.15 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of
Control. 
 (a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Partnership to
repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to a cash tender offer (“Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in this
Section 4.15. In the Change of Control Offer, the Partnership will offer a payment in cash (“Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on
the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Date”), subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. 

Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Partnership will give a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes properly tendered prior to the expiration date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such
notice is given, pursuant to the procedures required by this Section 4.15 and described in such notice. The 

  
 74 









 
Partnership will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable
in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.15, the Partnership will comply with the applicable
securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.15 by virtue of such compliance. 
 (b) Promptly following the expiration of the Change of Control Offer, the Partnership will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer. Promptly after such acceptance, the Partnership will, on the Change of Control Purchase Date: 

(1) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of
Notes properly tendered; and 
 (2) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted
together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Partnership. 
 The Paying Agent will promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes (or, if all the Notes are then in global form, it will make such payment
through the facilities of DTC), and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any. The
Partnership will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Purchase Date. 
 (c) The provisions described above that require the Partnership to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are
applicable. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the Partnership will not be required to
make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the time and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.15 applicable to a
Change of Control Offer made by the Partnership and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, (2) notice of redemption of all outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to Section 3.03
hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price or (3) in connection with or in contemplation of any Change of Control, the Partnership has made an offer to purchase (an “Alternate
Offer”) any and all Notes validly tendered at a cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all Notes properly tendered in accordance with the terms of such Alternate Offer. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of
Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made. 

  
 75 









 (f) In the event that Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer and the Partnership (or any third party making such Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Partnership as described above) purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the
Partnership will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes that
remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date
of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date). 

Section 4.16 Additional Note Guarantees. 
 If the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Domestic Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, then that newly acquired or created Domestic Subsidiary will
become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Trustee within 10 Business Days of the date on which it was acquired or created; provided that any Domestic Subsidiary that constitutes an
Immaterial Subsidiary need not become a Guarantor until such time as it ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary. 

Section 4.17 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

The Board of Directors of the General Partner may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation
would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated
as Unrestricted will be deemed to either (i) be an Investment made as of the time of the designation that will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the covenant described above under Section 4.07(a) hereof or
(ii) represent a Permitted Investment under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Partnership. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the
Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the General Partner may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a
Default. 
 Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Partnership as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by
filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions. If, at any time, any
Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to
be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Partnership will be in default of such covenant. 

  
 76 









 The Board of Directors of the Partnership may at any time designate any Unrestricted
Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted
Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable
reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. 
 Section 4.18 Covenant
Termination. 
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or of the Notes to the contrary, if at any time following the
date of this Indenture (a) the Notes are rated Baa3 or better by Moody’s and BBB- or better by S&P (or, if either such entity ceases to rate the Notes for reasons outside of the control of the Partnership, the equivalent investment
grade credit rating from any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Partnership as a replacement agency), (b) no Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and is continuing under this Indenture and (c) the Issuers have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying to such events, then beginning on that day and continuing at all times thereafter,
regardless of any subsequent change in the rating of the Notes, Sections 3.09, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.16, 4.17 and 5.01(a)(4) of this Indenture will terminate and no Default or Event of Default shall result from any failure to comply with
any of the provisions of such Sections. 
 ARTICLE 5 
 SUCCESSORS 
 Section 5.01 Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets.

 (a) Neither of the Issuers may, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or
not such Issuer is the survivor), or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless: 

(1) either: (a) such Issuer is the surviving Person; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made is a Person organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United
States or the District of Columbia; provided, however, that Finance Corp. may not consolidate or merge with or into any Person other than a corporation satisfying such requirement so long as the Partnership is not a corporation;

 (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or the
Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of such Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee; 

  
 77 









 (3) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default
exists; 
 (4) in the case of a transaction involving the Partnership and not Finance Corp., immediately after
giving effect to such transaction and any related financing transactions on a pro forma basis as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, either: 

(A) the Partnership or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Partnership),
or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made, would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in
Section 4.09(a) hereof; or 
 (B) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Partnership or the Person formed by
or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Partnership), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made, is equal to or greater than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the
Partnership immediately prior to such transaction; and 
 (5) such Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or disposition and such supplemental indenture, if any, comply with this Indenture. 

(b) Section 5.01(a) hereof will not apply to any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of assets
between or among the Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Sections 5.01(a)(3) and (4) hereof will not apply to any merger or consolidation of the Partnership (1) with or into one of its Restricted Subsidiaries for any purpose or
(2) with or into an Affiliate solely for the purpose of organizing the Partnership under the laws of another jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the restrictions described in Section 5.01(a) hereof, in the event the Partnership becomes a
corporation or the Partnership or the Person formed by or surviving any consolidation or merger (permitted in accordance with the terms of this Indenture) is a corporation, Finance Corp. may be merged into the Partnership or it may be dissolved in
accordance with this Indenture and cease to be an Issuer. 
 (c) Notwithstanding Section 5.01(a) hereof, the Partnership
may reorganize as any other form of entity in accordance with the following procedures provided that: 

(1) the reorganization involves the conversion (by merger, sale, contribution or exchange of assets or otherwise) of the
Partnership into a form of entity other than a limited partnership formed under Delaware law; 
 (2) the entity
so formed by or resulting from such reorganization is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; 

(3) the entity so formed by or resulting from such reorganization assumes all the obligations of the Partnership under the
Notes and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; 

  
 78 









 (4) immediately after such reorganization no Default (other than a Reporting
Default) or Event of Default exists; and 
 (5) such reorganization is not materially adverse to the Holders or
Beneficial Owners of the Notes (for purposes of this clause (5) a reorganization will not be considered materially adverse to the Holders or Beneficial Owners of the Notes solely because the successor or survivor of such reorganization
(a) is subject to federal or state income taxation as an entity or (b) is considered to be an “includible corporation” of an affiliated group of corporations within the meaning of Section 1504(b) of the Code or any similar
state or local law). 
 (d) For purposes of this Section 5.01, the transfer (by lease, assignment, sale or otherwise, in a
single transaction or series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries of the Partnership, the Capital Stock of which constitutes all or substantially all of the properties or
assets of the Partnership, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Partnership. 
 Section 5.02 Successor Issuer Substituted. 
 Upon any consolidation or
merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of an Issuer in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01
hereof, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which such Issuer is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from
and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to an “Issuer” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the
predecessor Issuer), and may exercise every right and power of such Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the predecessor Issuer herein; provided, however, that the predecessor
Issuer shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of, premium on or interest on the Notes in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of such Issuer’s properties or assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that
complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof. 
 ARTICLE 6 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section 6.01 Events of Default. 
 Each of the following is an
“Event of Default”: 
 (a) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes; 

(b) default in the payment when due (at Stated Maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the
Notes; 

  
 79 









 (c) failure by the Issuers to comply with the provisions of Section 3.09, 4.10, 4.15 or
5.01 hereof; 
 (d) failure by the Partnership for 120 days after notice to the Partnership by the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with Section 4.03 hereof; 
 (e) failure by
the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to the Partnership by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with any of their other agreements
in this Indenture; 
 (f) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there
may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is Guaranteed by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or
Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture, if that default: 
 (1) is caused by a
failure to pay principal of, premium on, if any, or interest, if any, on, such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or 

(2) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, 

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has
been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $20.0 million or more; provided, however, if, prior to any acceleration of the Notes, (i) any such Payment Default is cured or waived,
(ii) any such acceleration is rescinded, or (iii) such Indebtedness is repaid during the 30 day period commencing upon the end of any applicable grace period for such Payment Default or the occurrence of such acceleration, as the case may
be, any Default or Event of Default (but not any acceleration of the Notes) caused by such Payment Default or acceleration shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment, decree or applicable law;

 (g) failure by the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of
competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $20.0 million (to the extent not covered by insurance by a reputable and creditworthy insurer as to which the insurer has not disclaimed coverage), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed,
for a period of 60 days; 
 (h) the Partnership, Finance Corp. or any of the Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a

a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Partnership that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 

(2) appoints a custodian of the Partnership, Finance Corp. or any of the Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries that
is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Partnership that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Partnership or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Partnership that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or 

(3) orders the liquidation of the Partnership, Finance Corp. or any of the Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries that

Section 6.02 Acceleration. 
 In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Partnership, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership that is a Significant
Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Partnership that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event
of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. 

  
 81 









 Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Partnership and the
Trustee may, on behalf of all of the Holders of all the Notes, rescind an acceleration and its consequences hereunder, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of
principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 
 If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A
delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of
the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes (including in
connection with an offer to purchase). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

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

  
 82 









 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 

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

(b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue
the remedy; 
 (c) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (d) the Trustee does not comply with such request within
60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (e) during such 60-day period, Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request. 
 A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 

Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, premium on,
if any, or interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be
impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover
judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuers for the whole amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful,
interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the 

  
 83 









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

Section 6.10 Priorities. 
 If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 
 First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by
the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 
 Second: to Holders of the Notes for amounts due
and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

 Third: to the Issuers or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

 Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. 
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the
filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due
regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more
than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

 ARTICLE 7 
 TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this

 (e) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under
this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 

  
 85 









 (f) The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the
Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuers. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

Trustee reasonable indemnity or security satisfactory to it against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 

(g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of a Default or an Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this
Indenture. 
 (h) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of Indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or
investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuers, personally or by agent or
attorney at the sole cost of the Issuers and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 

  
 86 









 (i) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

(j) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be
indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

(k) The Trustee may request that the Partnership deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers
authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 
 Section 7.03 Individual Rights of
Trustee. 
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise
deal with the Issuers or any Affiliate of the Issuers with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the TIA) after a Default has occurred and is
continuing it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is
also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof. 
 Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it
shall not be accountable for the Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers’ direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of
any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this
Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 

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

  
 87 









 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 

(a) Within 60 days after each May 1 beginning with May 1, 2013, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee will
transmit to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA §313(a) (but if no event described in TIA §313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need
be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA §313(b)(2). The Trustee will also transmit all reports as required by TIA §313(c). 
 (b) A copy of each report at the time of its transmitting to the Holders of the Notes will be transmitted by the Trustee to the Issuers and filed by the Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on
which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA §313(d). The Issuers will promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange. 
 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 
 (a) The Issuers will pay to
the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers will
reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and
expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 (b) The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will indemnify
the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture
against the Issuers and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuers, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense shall be determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee will notify the Issuers promptly of any
claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers will not relieve the Issuers or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will
cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuers nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will
not be unreasonably withheld. 
 (c) The obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the earlier removal or resignation of the Trustee. 
 (d) To secure the
Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of, premium
on, if any, or interest on particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 

  
 88 









 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified
in Section 6.01(h) or (i) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

 (f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA §313(b)(2) to the extent applicable. 

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 
 (a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this
Section 7.08. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so
notifying the Issuers. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuers in writing. The Issuers may remove the Trustee if: 

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 

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

 (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Issuers will promptly
appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed
by the Issuers. 
 (d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is
removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuers, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(e) If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with
Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

  
 89 









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

Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 
 If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will
be the successor Trustee.

America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0

 ARTICLE 8 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The Issuers may at any time, at the option of their respective Boards of Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an
Officers’ Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. 

  
 90 









 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Issuers and each of
the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented
by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and
(b) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same),
except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a) the rights of
Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof; 

(b) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof; 

(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ obligations
in connection therewith; and 
 (d) this Article 8. 
 Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 
 Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuers and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of their respective obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 3.09, 4.03 (except for the obligation to comply with TIA §314(a)), 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10,
4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 (as it relates to any Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership), 4.15, 4.16 and 4.17 hereof and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set
forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of
Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for
accounting purposes to the extent permitted by GAAP). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Issuers and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in
respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision
herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as 

  
 91 









 
specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the
option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (j) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof: 

(a) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable
Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium on, if any,

received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or 
 (2) since the date of
this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such
Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in
the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (c) in the case
of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for
federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

 (d) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event
of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness), and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings); 

  
 92 









 (e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation
of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries is a
party or by which the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 
 (f) the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Notes over the other creditors of the Issuers with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any
creditors of the Issuers or others; and 
 (g) the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
  

	 	Section 8.05	Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 


Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the
Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in
accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Partnership acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums
due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Issuers will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or
non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the
outstanding Notes. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuers
from time to time upon the request of the Issuers any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in
a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuers. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuers, in trust for the payment of the principal of,
premium on, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuers on their request or (if then held by the Issuers) will


  
 93 









 
be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuers for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuers as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that, if any Definitive Note is then outstanding, the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any
such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuers cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein,
which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers. 
 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable
to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise
prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or
8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuers make any
payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government
Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 
 Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 
 Notwithstanding
Section 9.02 of this Indenture, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees: 

(a) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; 
 (b) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 
 (c) to provide for the assumption of the Issuers’ or a Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of the Notes and Note Guarantees in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all of the Issuers’ or such Guarantor’s properties or assets, as applicable; 
 (d) to make any change
that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any Holder; 

  
 94 









 (e) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification
of this Indenture under the TIA; 
 (f) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees to any provision
of the “Description of notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in that “Description of notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note
Guarantees, which intent may be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate to that effect; 
 (g) to provide for the issuance of
Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof; 
 (h) to allow any
Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture, or to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its Note Guarantee, in each case as provided in this Indenture; 
 (i) to secure the Notes or the Note Guarantees pursuant to the requirements of Section 4.12 hereof; or 
 (j) to evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee. 
 Upon the request of the Partnership, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.06 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuers and the Guarantors in the execution of
any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Section 9.01 and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into
such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 
 Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof)
and the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without
limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in
the payment of the principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees
may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02.
However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 

  
 95 









 (a) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment,
supplement or waiver; 
 (b) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the
provisions with respect to the redemption or repurchase of the Notes (other than provisions under Section 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15); 
 (c) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note; 
 (d) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 
 (e) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 
 (f) make
any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of the Notes to receive payments of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on the Notes (other than as permitted in clause
(g) below); 
 (g) waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by
Section 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15); 
 (h) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this
Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
 (i) make any change in the preceding amendment,
supplement and waiver provisions. 
 Upon the request of the Issuers accompanied by a resolution of their respective Boards of
Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of the Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee
of the documents described in Section 9.06 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuers and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. 

The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment,
supplement or waiver. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment, supplement or waiver. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Indenture requiring the approval of the Holders becomes effective, the
Partnership will give to the Holders a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. However, the failure to give such notice, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment, supplement or
waiver. 

  
 96 









 Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with
the TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of
a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of
a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its
terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

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

Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 
 The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of
the Trustee. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 10 
 NOTE GUARANTEES 

Section 10.01 Guarantee. 
 (a) Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally Guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and
its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuers hereunder or thereunder, that: 

  
 97 









 (1) the principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on the Notes will be
promptly paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on the Notes, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuers to the
Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 
 (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the
extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 
 Failing payment when due of any amount so
Guaranteed or any performance so Guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a Guarantee of payment and not a Guarantee of collection.

 (b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity
or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuers, any
action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in
the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuers, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuers, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance
of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 
 (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
otherwise to return to the Issuers, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuers or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that
it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations Guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations Guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors,
on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations Guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay,
injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether
or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does
not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee. 

  
 98 









 Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder hereby confirm that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note
Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to
any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such
maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other
Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 10.03 Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee. 

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture, or a supplement thereto, will be executed on behalf of such
Guarantor by one of its Officers. 
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof
will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. 

If an Officer whose signature is on the notation of its Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates
the Note on which such notation of its Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless. 
 The
delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 

In the event that the Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates or acquires any Restricted Subsidiary after the date of
this Indenture, if required by Section 4.16 hereof, the Partnership will cause such Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.16 hereof and this Article 10, to the extent applicable. 

Section 10.04 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

No Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets to, or consolidate with or merge with
or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Partnership or another Guarantor, unless: 
 (a) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 

  
 99 









 (b) either: 

(1) the Person acquiring the properties or assets in any such sale or other disposition or the Person formed by or
surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Guarantor) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under its Note Guarantee and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture or other agreement in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or 
 (2) such transaction or series of transactions does not violate
Section 4.10 hereof. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or other disposition and upon the assumption by the
successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee of the Guarantor and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or
all of the notations of Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuers and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the
same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

 Section 10.05 Releases. 
 The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be released: 
 (a) in connection with any
sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of that Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Partnership or
a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof; 
 (b) in
connection with any sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership, if the sale or other
disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof and such Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Partnership as a result of the sale or other disposition; 
 (c) upon designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 

(d) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 8 hereof or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in
accordance with Article 11 hereof; 

  
 100









 (e) upon the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor provided no Default or Event of
Default has occurred that is continuing; 
 (f) upon such Guarantor consolidating with, merging into or transferring all of its
properties or assets to either of the Issuers or another Guarantor, and as a result of, or in connection with, such transaction such Guarantor dissolving or otherwise ceasing to exist; or 

(g) in connection with the release or discharge of the Guarantee that resulted in the creation of such Guarantee as provided under
Section 4.16 or a release or discharge of all Guarantees by such Guarantor of other Indebtedness, except a release or discharge by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee. 

Upon delivery by the Partnership to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that any of the conditions described in
the foregoing clauses (a) – (g) has occurred, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Partnership in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee. 

Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section 10.05 will remain liable for
the full amount of principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 10. 

ARTICLE 11 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 
 This Indenture will be
discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes and as otherwise specified in this Article 11), when: 

(a) either: 
 (1) all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to
the Issuers, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (2) all Notes that have not been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the giving of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and either an Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or
caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration
of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and interest to the date of Stated Maturity or redemption; 

  
 101









 (b) in respect of subclause (2) of clause (a) of this Section 11.01, no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and any similar deposit relating to other
Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which either Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or
by which either Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than with respect to the borrowing of funds to be applied concurrently to make the deposit required to effect such satisfaction and discharge and any similar concurrent deposit relating to
other Indebtedness, and in each case the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings); 
 (c) the Issuers have paid or caused to
be paid all other sums payable by the Issuers under this Indenture; and 
 (d) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable
instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at Stated Maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the Issuers must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money or Government Securities have been deposited with
the Trustee pursuant to subclause (2) of clause (a) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of
Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 11.02
Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money or Government Securities
deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the
Partnership acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, or interest for whose payment such money or Government Securities have been deposited with the Trustee; but
such money or Government Securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 If the
Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining,
restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuers’ and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof;
provided that if the Issuers have made any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture
referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
 (1) INTEREST. SunCoke
Energy Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and SunCoke Energy Partners Finance Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Finance Corp.” and together with the Partnership, the
“Issuers”) jointly and severally promise to pay or cause to be paid interest on the principal amount of this Note at         % per annum from January
        , 2013 until maturity. The Issuers will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on                 and
                of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest
on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is
authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date
shall be                     , 2013. The Issuers will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on
overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum higher than the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; they will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any
proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest, if any (without regard to any applicable grace period), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

(2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuers will pay interest on
the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the                     and
                    next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest
Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such purpose
within the City of Pittsburgh, in the State of Pennsylvania, or, at the option of the Issuers, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by
wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, premium on, if any, and interest on all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the
Partnership or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this
Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuers limited to $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount in the case of
the Initial Notes. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Additional Notes that may be issued thereunder.

governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 
 (b) If the Partnership or a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Partnership consummates any Asset Sales, within five days of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, the Partnership will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of
other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem, on
a pro rata basis, the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection
therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, prepayment or
redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer,

Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except as provided in Section 4.10 of the Indenture), based on the amounts tendered. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. Holders of
Definitive Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Partnership prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of
Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes.
