	 	(i)	it is duly incorporated and is a validly existing company under the laws of its place of incorporation and has power to carry on its business as now being conducted; 


 

	 	(ii)	it has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Deed and no limitation on the powers of the Guarantor or the Sponsor will be exceeded as a result of entering into this Deed;

	4.	ACTUARIAL VALUATIONS AND INSURANCE BUY-OUT BASIS DISPUTE RESOLUTION 

  

	 	(a)	The Guarantor and the Sponsor each consent, and the Guarantor shall procure that any IMPS Employers shall consent, in relation to the Actuarial Valuation as at 5 April 2018 and each subsequent Actuarial Valuation,
to using the Agreed Assumptions. 

  

	 	(b)	The Trustee confirms that it does not envisage calling an out of cycle Actuarial Valuation unless there is a material unmitigated detrimental change to the covenant as a whole (including the position of the Guarantor
and the Sponsor in aggregate), taking into account the commitments set out in this Deed. For the avoidance of doubt, the merger of the Guarantor with Time Inc. shall not be treated as a material unmitigated detrimental change to the covenant (it
being understood that, without limitation, a material failure of the Sponsor or the Guarantor to abide by the terms of this Deed and/or a subsequent reduction in value or poor performance of any asset or business acquired with the proceeds has the
potential to constitute or contribute to a material unmitigated detrimental change to the covenant). 

  

	 	(c)	Where this Deed requires the Scheme Actuary to calculate an Insurance Buy-Out Deficit using the Insurance Buy-Out Basis, the Scheme Actuary
shall supply to the Guarantor and the Sponsor such calculation and such information as to data, methods and assumptions as an actuary advising the Sponsor or Guarantor (the “Funder’s Actuary”) would reasonably request to be able to
test both whether the proposed Insurance Buy-Out Basis meets the requirements to be on the Insurance Buy-Out Basis and whether the calculation of the Insurance Buy-Out Deficit is correct. 

  

	 	(d)	Where the Funder’s Actuary concludes in good faith that the basis proposed as the Insurance Buy-Out Basis does not meet the requirements to be on the Insurance Buy-Out Basis or an amount calculated as the Insurance Buy-Out Deficit contains an arithmetical error then the Sponsor or Guarantor may by written notice to the Trustee within
10 Business Days of the relevant notice from the Scheme Actuary or, as the case may be, Trustee notify the Trustee that the matter is disputed and where such notice is validly served, Clauses 4(e) and (f) shall apply and the matter shall be a
“Dispute”. 

  

	 	(e)	The parties shall use all reasonable endeavours to reach agreement regarding any such Dispute within 20 Business Days of the commencement of discussions between the Parties regarding the substance of such Dispute, then,
subject to Clause 4(f), either party may refer the matter to be determined by an independent actuary (the “Expert”) and shall instruct such Expert to provide their expert opinion on the subject matter of the Dispute.



  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	16










	 	(f)	The Expert shall be nominated either jointly by the Sponsor or the Guarantor (as applicable) and the Trustee, or failing agreement between them within 10 Business Days of the first nomination proposal, on the
application of either of them to the President for the time being of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. In the event that the subject matter of the Dispute is such that an actuary will not accept the appointment on the grounds that the matter
is outside of his expertise, the parties shall, acting reasonably and in good faith, agree an alternative category of professional for the purposes of this Clause 4(f). The Expert will act as expert and not as an arbitrator. 


 

	5.	INVESTMENT STRATEGY  

 The Parties agree, and the Guarantor shall procure that any IMPS
Employer(s) shall agree, that the Trustee shall implement the Agreed Investment Strategy, and shall update and adopt a Statement of Investment Principles consistent with the Agreed Investment Strategy. 

 

	6.	LIABILITY AND RISK MANAGEMENT EXERCISES 

  

	 	(a)	The parties have identified certain liability management exercises, which they will implement on a basis to be agreed acting reasonably, provided that such exercises will be carried out on a basis which is within the
reasonable range adopted for such exercises in UK pensions practice. Any costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Trustee in relation to such liability management exercises will be met by the Sponsor, and for the avoidance of doubt shall form
part of the Guaranteed Liabilities. 

  

	 	(b)	The Sponsor, the Guarantor and the Trustee may from time to time discuss possible opportunities for the Trustee to enter into contracts to secure (within or outside of the Scheme) some or all of the liabilities of the
Scheme. To facilitate such discussions, the Sponsor and/or the Guarantor may from time to time request data from the Trustee in relation to the benefits provided by the Scheme. The Trustee will provide such data to the Sponsor and/or Guarantor
provided that each of the Sponsor and/or Guarantor and any other person to whom the data may be passed by the Sponsor and/or Guarantor (each a “Data Recipient”) (a) enters into such undertaking and/or agreement as is reasonably required by
the Trustee to ensure the transfer of data does not result in a breach by the Trustee of the Data Protection Act 1988 or other applicable legal or regulatory requirements, and (b) provides the Trustee with an indemnity against all costs,
expenses, losses or fines in the event of a breach by the Data Recipient of such undertaking and/or agreement. 

  

	7.	CONTRIBUTIONS 

  

	 	(a)	Immediately following TIUK Completion, the Guarantor shall procure the payment by the Sponsor to the Scheme of a one-off cash lump sum additional employer contribution of
£60 million. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	17










	 	(b)	The parties acknowledge and agree that the Schedule of Contributions provides for monthly contributions to be paid by the Sponsor to the Scheme of £917,000 each month. Such contributions are payable to the Scheme
no later than the 19th of the month to which they relate. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	18

Deficit. 

  

	 	(d)	In the event that at 25 November 2025 the ALS shows a Funding Deficit using the Agreed Assumptions, the Sponsor will within 30 days of such anniversary make a contribution to the Scheme equal to half of that

	 	(e)	In the event that at 25th November 2026 the ALS shows a Funding Deficit using the Agreed Assumptions, the Sponsor will within 30 days of such anniversary make a
contribution to the Scheme equal to half of that Funding Deficit. 

  

	 	(f)	In the event that at 25th November 2027 the ALS shows a Funding Deficit using the Agreed Assumptions, the Sponsor will within 30 days of such anniversary make a
contribution to the Scheme equal to that Funding Deficit. 

  

	 	(g)	Contributions shall cease to be payable under Clauses 7(b) to (f) above from the Gilts Flat Confirmation Date, save that any contributions already due and payable shall continue to be due and payable.


  

	 	(h)	In the event that a payment is made under Clause 8, no further contributions (apart from any which were overdue for payment at the time of, but assumed paid for the purposes of, any calculation of the Funding Deficit)
will be payable under this Clause 7.

	 	(ii)	when it has reason to anticipate the occurrence of an Event of Default or an Acceleration Escrow Payment Event. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	19










	 	(d)	The Trustee shall establish the Escrow Account, if not already established, as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an Event of Default or an Acceleration Escrow Payment Event. 


 

	 	(e)	If the Guarantor or the Trustee is proposing to establish the Escrow Account in accordance with this Clause 8, it shall notify the Trustee or the Guarantor, as applicable, accordingly giving details of the proposed
escrow agent and financial institution and a copy of the proposed escrow agreement. The Trustee or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall promptly give the party establishing the Escrow Account such assistance as it may reasonably require in connection
with its establishment. The party establishing the Escrow Account shall notify the Trustee of the Guarantor, as applicable, promptly after it has been established. 


 

	 	(f)	Once the Escrow Account has been established, it shall be maintained unless and until: 

  

	 	(i)	the Guarantor and the Trustee agree to its discontinuance; 

  

	 	(ii)	the escrow agent or the financial institution terminates the Escrow Account; 

  

	 	(iii)	the financial institution ceases to have an Agreed Escrow Rating or becomes subject to an Insolvency Event; or 

  

	 	(iv)	the escrow agent ceases to have an Agreed Escrow Rating, commits a material breach of the escrow agreement or becomes subject to an Insolvency Event, 


in which case unless the Guarantor and the Trustee agree otherwise an alternative Escrow Account shall be established on a basis agreed between
the Guarantor and the Trustee or (failing such agreement within 10 Business Days of either of those parties seeking the agreement of the other) by the Trustee, with any monies in the existing Escrow Account being promptly transferred into the
alternative Escrow Account once established. 
  

	 	(g)	The costs of the establishment and maintenance of the Escrow Account shall be borne by the Guarantor. 

  

	 	(h)	In relation to any payment to be made out of the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of this Deed, each of the Guarantor and the Trustee undertakes to the other promptly upon the other’s request to join in

Breach (including, if relevant a repeat of the first Covenant Breach) within twelve months of the initial Covenant Breach occurring, in which case the Guarantor shall make the payment under Clause 9(a) (for the avoidance of doubt, with the Relevant
Time remaining the date on which the initial Covenant Breach occurred) within 10 Business Days (or, if later, within 60 Business Days of the date on which the initial Covenant Breach occurred); 


 

	 	(iii)	an Acceleration Escrow Payment Event, the “Relevant Time” shall be the date of the Acceleration Escrow Payment Event and the payment pursuant to Clause 9(a) shall be payable on the date five Business Days
after that; and

months in circumstances after all benefits are secured in full and all costs and expenses associated with winding-up met from the Scheme’s assets, they may notify the Trustee accordingly and, unless the
Trustee challenges such notification (in which event the matter will be referred for arbitration in accordance with the procedure set out in Clause 15(c)(v)) such contributions will then instead be paid into the Escrow Account.

In the event that
the credit balance on the Escrow Account is less than the Insurance Buy-Out Deficit or Covenant Escrow Amount (as applicable), the Guarantor shall make a payment into the Escrow Account equal to the shortfall
within 10 Business Days of the Scheme Actuary issuing its calculation. 

  

	 	(d)	No payment shall be made to the Guarantor pursuant to Clause 10(b) or (c) if at the time the Scheme Actuary issues the relevant calculation it has been instructed pursuant to Clause 10(b) or (c) to calculate
the Insurance Buy-out Deficit as at a later date than that to which the relevant calculation relates or an Escrow Event or anniversary has occurred which will result in its being so instructed.

	 	(ii)	if a Covenant Breach occurs after the six month anniversary but before, or within twelve months after, the balance has been paid to the Guarantor, the Guarantor shall within 10 Business Days make a payment into the
Escrow Account equal to the total amount returned to it and Clause 11(d) shall then apply.

	 	(ii)	the credit balance (if any) on the Escrow Account shall then be paid from the Escrow Account to the Guarantor. 

  

	 	(e)	Change of Control Escrow Payment Event – payments upon the Change of Control becoming a Permitted Change of Control 


This Clause 11(e) shall apply if a Change of Control which was not a Permitted Change of Control at the time of the Change of Control
transaction within two months following the date of the Change of Control becomes a Permitted Change of Control (e.g., by virtue of a credit rating being “confirmed” after the completion of the Change of Control transaction). 

If and so long as it applies, the amount paid in to the Escrow Account in connection with the Change of Control shall be repaid to the
Guarantor from the Escrow Account promptly after it is determined that such Change in Control was or has become a Permitted Change of Control, subject to there being a sufficient credit balance on the Escrow Account and provided that no payment
shall be made under this Clause 11(e) if at the time it would otherwise be made an Event of Default, Acceleration Escrow Payment Event or Covenant Breach has occurred and is continuing. 

 

	12.	REPLACEMENT OF GUARANTEE AND ESCROW ACCOUNT ARRANGEMENTS

	 	(i)	a Matching Replacement Obligation is provided to the Trustee by an Acceptable Replacement Entity; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Appropriate Replacement Conditions are satisfied, 

 then the Trustee shall at the request of
the Guarantor:

 “Acceptable Replacement Entity” means a corporate entity
(or other entity acceptable to the Trustee): 
  

	 	(i)	which is not a Subsidiary of the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of, or under the Control of, an entity which, following a Change of Control, alone or together with a “group” (within the meaning of Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) of other entities has Control of the Guarantor; 

  


	 	(ii)	which at the date on which the Trustee releases the Guarantor from its obligations under this Deed pursuant to Clause 12(a) has at least one of the following: 


 

	 	(A)	a confirmed long term unsecured senior debt credit rating of higher than Caa1 from Moody’s (or, if it does not have a rating of its long term unsecured senior debt from Moody’s, a confirmed corporate rating of

date on which the Matching Replacement Obligation is completed, 

 and for these purposes a credit rating or corporate rating
is a “confirmed” rating if: 
  

	 	(i)	the relevant rating agency has confirmed in writing to the Trustee, in terms acceptable to the Trustee, that the relevant rating will not be affected by the relevant entity entering into the Replacement Documents and
becoming bound by the obligations on its part in the Replacement Documents and the release and return referred to in Clause 12(a)(iii) and (iv); 

  

	 	(ii)	the relevant rating agency, with knowledge of the actual or impending release and return referred to in Clause 12(a)(iii) and (iv), has confirmed or updated the relevant rating after the relevant entity has to the
relevant rating agency’s knowledge entered into the Replacement Documents and become bound by the obligations on its part in the Replacement Documents; or 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	26










	 	(iii)	the Trustee receives an opinion from a financial adviser acceptable to it, and which has knowledge of the actual or impending release and return referred to in Clause 12(a)(iii) and (iv), that the entry by the relevant
entity into the Replacement Documents and its becoming bound by the obligations should not affect the relevant rating. 


“Appropriate Replacement Conditions” means the provision to the Trustee of each of the following in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee, acting reasonably: 
  

	 	(i)	Replacement Documents executed and (subject only to execution by the Trustee) delivered by each party apart from the Trustee; 

  

	 	(ii)	capacity and validity legal opinions satisfactory to the Trustee confirming that the Replacement Documents constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations on the part of the Acceptable Replacement Entity
and containing such other opinions as the Trustee, acting reasonably, may request in connection with the Replacement Documents and the Acceptable Replacement Entity; 


 

	 	(iii)	the confirmation in writing from a rating agency referred to in the definition of “Acceptable Replacement Entity”; and 


 

	 	(iv)	such other agreements, corporate resolutions, search results and other documentation as the Trustee may reasonably request. 


“Matching Replacement Obligation” means any of the following: 

 

	 	(i)	the assumption by accession or operation of law of the Guarantor’s obligations under this Deed; 

  

	 	(ii)	the entry into of a deed in substantially identical terms to this Deed including adherence to such deed of the Subsidiary Guarantors; or 


 

	 	(iii)	the entry into of a corporate guarantee, surety bond, letter of credit, bank guarantee or other similar instrument considered by Trustee, acting reasonably, to provide it with protection in commercial terms
substantially identical to that provided by this Deed, including in particular: 

  

	 	(A)	obligations to make payments to the Scheme at the same times and in the same amounts as provided under this Deed; and 

  

	 	(B)	obligations to: 

  

	 	(1)	put money into an account satisfying the conditions set out in the definition of “Escrow Account”; 

  

	 	(2)	provide equivalent security; or 

  

	 	(3)	make payments into the Scheme, 

 in the case of (A), (B) and (C) at the same time and in
the same amounts as provided under Clauses 8 to 11 of this Deed. 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	27









 “Replacement Documents” means the documents entered into in order to effect, and
otherwise in connection with, the Matching Replacement Obligation. 
  

	13.	GUARANTEE 

  

	 	(a)	The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably: 

  

	 	(i)	guarantees to the Trustee punctual payment by the Sponsor and the IMPS Employers of the Guaranteed Liabilities; 

  

	 	(ii)	undertakes to the Trustee that whenever the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers does not pay any amount when due and payable in respect of a Guaranteed Liability it shall pay such amount in accordance with the
terms of Clause 14 (Recourse) as if it were the principal obligor; 

  

	 	(iii)	undertakes to the Trustee to procure that each Subsidiary which is from time to time a Subsidiary Guarantor will at the later of 15 March 2018 or the date on which it first becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor, enter
into an Accession Letter in substantially the form set out in Schedule 5 to this Deed and so guarantee to the Trustee the obligations of the Guarantor under this Deed until the Fall Away Date; 


 

	 	(iv)	undertakes with the Trustee that if any payment obligation guaranteed by it under this Deed is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify the Trustee in
accordance with the terms of Clause 14 (Recourse) against any cost, loss or liability which the Trustee or the Scheme incur as a result of the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability,
invalidity or illegality, have been payable by the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers to the Scheme or the Trustee. 

  

	 	(b)	The Guarantor shall ensure that its payment obligations under this Deed and those of the Subsidiary Guarantors will rank at least pari passu with the claims of all its other direct unsecured and unsubordinated
creditors including (for the avoidance of doubt) the Senior Unsecured Noteholders, except for obligations mandatorily preferred or privileged by law. 

  

	14.	RECOURSE 

  

	 	(a)	Before making a demand for payment from the Guarantor under this Deed other than in relation to any payment due under Clauses 8 to 12, the Trustee shall first make a demand for the relevant amount against the Sponsor
and/or any relevant IMPS Employer and shall simultaneously notify the Guarantor that it has made such a demand. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	28










	 	(b)	Subject to Clause 14(c), if the Sponsor and the IMPS Employers do not pay the amount so demanded by the Trustee within 10 Business Days of the date of the relevant demand, the Trustee may make written demand of the
Guarantor for such unpaid amounts under this Deed and shall simultaneously notify each of the Subsidiary Guarantors that it has made such a demand of the Guarantor. The Guarantor shall pay any unpaid amounts so demanded by the Trustee under this
Deed within 10 Business Days of such demand if still unpaid on such date. 

  

	 	(c)	Where, and to the extent only that, a payment due from the Sponsor or any of the IMPS Employers (other than a payment set out in the Schedule of Contributions to the extent it is expressed in a Sterling amount and not
as a percentage) has been validly disputed in good faith, no amounts shall be payable under Clause 13 (Guarantee) in respect of that payment obligation until the payment obligation has been confirmed by the payer or a court of first instance.


  

	 	(d)	Before making a demand for payment from any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Deed, the Trustee shall first make a demand for the relevant amount against the Sponsor and/or any relevant IMPS Employer in accordance with
Clause 14(a) and subsequently against the Guarantor in accordance with Clause 14(b). Subject to Clause 14(c), if the Guarantor does not pay the relevant amount so demanded by the Trustee within 10 Business Days of the date of such demand, the
Trustee may make written demand for that unpaid amount from any or all of the Subsidiary Guarantors, and those Subsidiary Guarantors who receive such a demand shall make payment to the Trustee within 10 Business Days of such demand of that unpaid
amount if still unpaid on such date. In no circumstances will the total amount recovered from the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Clause 14(c) exceed the relevant amount originally demanded of the Guarantor. No amount may be recovered from any
Subsidiary Guarantor under this Clause 14 in so far as it relates to an amount which was due for payment before the date of this Deed. 

  

	15.	TERMINATION OF THIS DEED  

  

	 	(a)	The occurrence of the Termination Date shall not affect the liability of the Guarantor under this Deed in respect of any Guaranteed Liabilities that fall due for payment on or prior to the Termination Date.


  

	 	(b)	This Deed shall terminate if the Scheme is wound up and all liabilities in relation to the Scheme (ignoring any reduction to benefits that may otherwise arise due to an insufficiency of resources) are fully secured to
the satisfaction of the Trustee, acting reasonably. In such event, any surplus funds then remaining in the Scheme or in the Escrow Account shall be promptly returned to the Guarantor. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	29










	 	(c)	This Deed shall terminate (unless the Guarantor elects otherwise in writing) if the Trustee implements an investment strategy that is not consistent with the Agreed Investment Strategy, the Trustee adopts assumptions
for an Actuarial Valuation which are not the Agreed Assumptions, or the Trustee adopts transfer or commutation factors that, if this Deed had not been entered into, would be outside of the reasonable range which the Trustee could properly adopt in
relation to the Scheme (assuming no concerns about the ability of the Sponsor and IMPS Employers to support the Scheme on an ongoing basis) (a “Material Change”) and (subject to (v) below) the Guarantor informs the Trustee in
writing that termination will occur as a result of that Material Change except: 

  

	 	(i)	Where a Credit Rating Condition Failure Event occurs the Trustee may, subject to having consulted with the Guarantor in good faith, change the investment strategy to de-risk to a
target return of gilts plus 0.5% or, where a Credit Rating Downgrade Event occurs, the Trustee may (subject to any consultation required under the Pensions Act 1995) change the investment strategy as they see fit; provided that (A) if a Credit
Rating Condition Satisfaction Event occurs, it will be a Material Change if the Guarantor so notifies the Trustee and the Trustee does not adjust the investment strategy to be consistent with the Agreed Investment Strategy within 90 days or such
other period as the Trustee and the Guarantor shall agree, and (B) if the Credit Rating Downgrade Event has been reversed it will be a Material Change if the Guarantor so notifies the Trustee and the Trustee does not adjust the investment
strategy to be consistent with the Agreed Investment Strategy within 90 days or such other period as the Trustee and the Guarantor shall agree; 

  

	 	(ii)	Where an investment adviser appointed by the Trustee under section 47 of the Pensions Act 1995 (the “Trustee’s Investment Adviser”) advises the Trustee in writing (copied to the Guarantor) that a
change to the investment strategy is expected to result in the same (or increased) expected long-term return with the same (or less) level of overall risk as compared with the then current investment strategy, it shall not be a Material Change;


  

	 	(iii)	It shall not be a Material Change if the Trustee reverses the Material Change within 90 days of the later of the Guarantor informing them in writing that termination will occur as a result of it and the resolution of
any dispute about whether there has been a Material Change in accordance with (v) below; 

  

	 	(iv)	It shall not be a Material Change if the Trustee has made a change to the investment target return in accordance with the Agreed Investment Strategy and the following conditions are met: 


 

	 	(A)	prior to the change, the Trustee’s Investment Adviser advises the Trustee in writing (copied to the Guarantor) that the investment target return in accordance with the Agreed Investment Strategy is no longer
capable of being achieved on the basis of the current strategic allocation; 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	30










	 	(B)	prior to the change, the Trustee has requested the Trustee’s Investment Adviser to advise in writing (copied to the Guarantor) on whether there is any change in the current strategic allocation which could be made
without materially increasing the overall level of risk in order to reduce so far as possible the extent to which the Trustee’s Investment Adviser advises that the investment target return in accordance with the Agreed Investment Strategy needs
to be changed; 

  

	 	(C)	prior to the change, the Trustee has made any change that is advised by the Trustee’s Investment Adviser further to the request referred to in sub-Clause (B) above;


  

	 	(D)	the change is not more than the minimum change necessary to align the investment target return in accordance with the Agreed Investment Strategy with the investment target return that the Trustee’s Investment
Adviser has advised is achievable (taking into account any change that is advised by the Trustee’s Investment Adviser further to the request referred to in sub-Clause (B) above); and


  

	 	(E)	the Guarantor has consented to the change, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

  

	 	(v)	In the event that the Trustee disputes whether there has been a Material Change (e.g. due to a dispute over the interpretation of the Agreed Investment Strategy or the Agreed Assumptions or over the reasonableness of
transfer or commutation factors), such dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the Arbitration Rules of the London Court of International Arbitration and the following provisions shall apply: 


 

	 	(A)	The tribunal shall consist of a sole arbitrator; 

  

	 	(B)	The seat of arbitration shall be London, England 

  

	 	(C)	The language of the arbitration shall be English. 

  

	16.	DEFICIT ESTIMATION  

  

	 	(a)	The Guarantor and the Trustee shall procure that the ALS is maintained in respect of the Scheme in accordance with the Configuration Document. Both the Trustee and the Guarantor shall have unrestricted access to the ALS
for purposes of accessing the Estimated Funding Position and the Estimated Insurance Buy-Out Deficit as at any given date. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	31










	 	(b)	The Guarantor and the Trustee shall procure that no changes (whether by replacement, modification or addition) are made to the information in the Configuration Document without the prior written consent of both the
Guarantor and the Trustee and neither the Guarantor nor the Trustee shall take steps (directly or indirectly) to prevent the other party from accessing ALS. In the event of a breach of this Clause by the Trustee which has been notified to the
Trustee by the Guarantor but not remedied, the Estimated Relevant Funding Position at any given time (when looked at following the breach) shall be as determined by the Guarantor based on the terms of the Configuration Document as it stood prior to
such amendment in contravention of this Clause. 

  

	 	(c)	In respect of an Estimated Relevant Funding Position, the Guarantor may (acting reasonably) give the Trustee, and the Trustee may (acting reasonably) give the Guarantor notice in writing (the “Error
Notice”) that there is either a Manifest Error or an ALS Failure, in each case, specifying reasonable details of the same, including what they believe (acting reasonably) to be the Replacement Estimated Relevant Funding Position. To be a
valid notice under this Clause 16(c), such notice must be sent within 5 Business Days following the day on which the Guarantor became aware, or should reasonably be expected to have become aware, of such Manifest Error or ALS Failure.


 Where the recipient of the Error Notice disputes the existence of the Manifest Error, or the ALS Failure, or disputes
whether the Replacement Estimated Relevant Funding Position is itself subject to a Manifest Error, or both, they shall, within 5 Business Days of their receipt of the Error Notice, notify the other party (being the Guarantor or the Trustee) in
writing (the “Error Dispute Notice”). In the event that the parties are unable to agree the 
 Replacement Estimated
Relevant Funding Position, that dispute will be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the terms set out in Clause 15(c)(v) and the amount so determined shall be the Replacement Estimated Relevant Funding Position. 

 

	 	(d)	Where the Guarantor is required to hold funds in escrow in accordance with Clauses 9, 10 or 11 and an Error Notice is issued, on and from the date on which the Error Notice is received by the other party until the date
on which the Replacement Estimated Relevant Funding Position is agreed or otherwise determined in accordance with Clause 16(c), the Estimated Relevant Funding Position for the purpose of Clauses 9, 10 or 11 shall be the most recent (determined by
reference to their “as at” dates) Estimated Relevant Funding Position available on or from ALS prior to the challenged Estimated Relevant Funding Position. 


 

	 	(e)	The Guarantor and the Trustee may (in their absolute discretion), from time to time, agree to use a different technology and software to the ALS (the “Alternative Tracker”). The Guarantor and the
Trustee shall use all reasonable endeavours to so agree in the event that the ALS no longer exists in the form described in this Deed. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	32










	 	(f)	The Guarantor and the Trustee shall, unless they agree otherwise in writing (in their absolute discretion), procure that any Alternative Tracker which replaces the ALS under this Clause 16 is configured as closely as
practicable to the configuration of the ALS (as set out in the Configuration Document). In the event that the Guarantor and the Trustee are unable to reach agreement as to whether a proposed Alternative Tracker satisfies this Clause 15, or otherwise
which Alternative Tracker to use, that dispute will be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the terms set out in Clause 15(c)(v). 


In the event that the ALS is replaced under this Clause 16(f) with an Alternative Tracker, this Deed shall apply as if all references in this
Deed to “the ALS” were instead references to the Alternative Tracker which replaced it. 
  

	17.	CONTINUING GUARANTEE 

 Subject to Clause 15, the guarantee set out in this Deed is a
continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by it in respect of the Guaranteed Liabilities, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. 

 

	18.	REINSTATEMENT 

 If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the
obligations of the Sponsor and/or any IMPS Employers or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by the Trustee in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in
insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of the Guarantor under this Deed will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred. 

 

	19.	LIABILITY/WAIVER OF DEFENCES 

 The obligations of the Guarantor under this Deed will not
be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 19 would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Deed (without limitation and whether or not known to it or the Trustee) including: 

 

	 	(i)	any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers and/or any other person; 

  

	 	(ii)	any amendment, novation, supplement, renewal, release, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of the Schedule of Contributions or the Trust Deed and Rules or any
other document or security; 

  

	 	(iii)	the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce any rights against, or security over assets of the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers and/or
any other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of
any security; 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	33










	 	(iv)	any discharge or release of the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement; 


 

	 	(v)	any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status relating to the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers and/or any other person; 


 

	 	(vi)	any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under the Schedule of Contributions or the Trust Deed and Rules or any other document; or 


 

	 	(vii)	any bankruptcy or insolvency or similar proceedings. 

  

	20.	APPROPRIATIONS 

 Until the Guaranteed Liabilities have been irrevocably paid in full, the
Trustee (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may: 
  

	 	(i)	refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by the Trustee (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner
and order as they see fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and 

  

	 	(ii)	hold in an interest-bearing suspense account (bearing interest at a commercial rate) any moneys received from the Guarantor or on account of the Guarantor’s liability under this Deed, unless and until such amounts
are sufficient in aggregate to discharge the Guaranteed Liabilities in full. 

  

	21.	DEFERRAL OF THE GUARANTOR’S RIGHTS 

 Until the Guaranteed Liabilities have been
irrevocably paid and satisfied in full and unless the Trustee otherwise directs, the Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under this Deed or by reason of any amount being payable,
or liability arising under this Deed: 
  

	 	(i)	to be indemnified by the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers; 

  

	 	(ii)	to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of the Sponsor’s and/or any of the IMPS Employers’ obligations or liabilities to make payments to the Scheme; 


 

	 	(iii)	to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Trustee or the Scheme in respect of the Sponsor’s and/or any of the IMPS Employers’ obligations or
liabilities to make payments to the Trustee or the Scheme, or under or pursuant to any other guarantee or security taken in connection with such obligations or liabilities of the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers by the Trustee;



  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	34










	 	(iv)	to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which the Guarantor has given a guarantee,
undertaking or indemnity under this Deed; 

  

	 	(v)	to exercise any right of set-off against the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers; and/or 


 

	 	(vi)	to claim or prove as a creditor of the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers in competition with the Trustee or the Scheme. 


The Guarantor must hold in trust for and immediately pay or transfer to the Trustee any payment or distribution or benefit of security received
by it contrary to this Clause 21 or in accordance with any directions given by the Trustee under this Clause 21. 
  

	22.	ADDITIONAL SECURITY 

  

	 	(a)	Provision of Total Security 

  

	 	(i)	With effect from 15 March 2018 the Guarantor will provide, or will procure, the provision of Total Security from time to time equal to the lesser of £85,000,000 and the Estimated Insurance Buy-Out Deficit as at the previous 5 April, with the Guarantor and the Trustee having agreed that initially, Total Security will be in the form of a surety bond. 


 

	 	(ii)	Any change to Total Security shall be implemented within 20 Business Days (or such other period, in connection with an instrument comprising Total Security, as the Trustee and the Guarantor may otherwise agree)
immediately after any 5 April, save that in the event of the Guarantor or the Trustee giving the other an Error Notice in accordance with Clause 16(c), no change to Total Security shall be made until the Replacement Estimated Funding Position
has been determined in accordance with that Clause, and any change to Total Security shall be implemented within 20 Business Days (or such other period, in connection with an instrument comprising Total Security, as the Trustee and the Guarantor may
otherwise agree) of such determination. 

  

	 	(b)	Form of Total Security 

  

	 	(i)	Each instrument forming part of the Total Security must be in terms that are satisfactory to the Trustee, acting reasonably, taking into account the events on which such instruments pay to the Trustee and the
creditworthiness of any counterpart and in considering whether the Trustee is acting reasonably, the Trustee may have regard to the extent to which the terms of any such instrument have materially the same effect in relation to the insolvency of the
Guarantor as the applicable Pension Protection Fund contingent asset would have if the Guarantor were an employer in relation to the Scheme; 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	35










	 	(ii)	Each instrument that is a surety bond shall be provided to the Trustee (with the Trustee as the beneficiary); 

  

	 	(ii)	Each instrument that is a letter of credit shall be provided to the Trustee (with the Trustee as the beneficiary); and 

  

	 	(iii)	Each instrument that is an escrow account shall be in terms consistent with the requirements of an Escrow Account under this Deed. 

  

	 	(c)	Relationship to other security  

 This Deed is in addition to and is not in any way
prejudiced by any guarantee or security subsequently held by the Trustee or the Scheme after the date of this Deed. 
  

	23.	PROVISION OF INFORMATION  

  

	 	(a)	Covenant Breach 

 From the date of this Deed, the Guarantor undertakes to the Trustee
that it will immediately notify the Trustee of any Covenant Breach as soon as it becomes aware of it, and in the event that the Guarantor at any time wishes to ask the Trustee to agree in writing that, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee,
there is no continuing Covenant Breach, the Guarantor will provide such information as the Trustee reasonably requires to consider such request, such agreement not to unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

 

	 	(b)	Provision of financial information 

 The Guarantor and the Sponsor each undertake to the
Trustee that it shall provide the Financial Information at the times specified in Schedule 4. The contents of Schedule 4 may be amended by written agreement between the Guarantor, the Sponsor and the Trustee. 

 

	 	(c)	Consultation 

 The Guarantor undertakes to consult with the Trustee in good faith and in
a timely manner in respect of any proposal to make material changes to the debt structure of the Guarantor (including the proportions of secured and unsecured debt) in place as at the date of this Deed. 

 

	24.	PAYMENTS 

 All payments made pursuant to this Deed shall be made in Sterling in
immediately available funds without any set-off or counterclaim to the Trustee’s account at such office or bank as it may notify the Guarantor from time to time by no less than 5 Business Days’ prior
notice. If a payment under this Deed is due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date for that payment will instead be the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	36










	25.	TAXES 

  

	 	(a)	Tax gross-up: 

  

	 	(i)	The Guarantor must make all payments to the Trustee or into the Escrow Account under this Deed without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law. 


 

	 	(ii)	If the Guarantor is aware that it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is a change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction), it must promptly notify the Trustee. Similarly, the Trustee shall notify the Guarantor
on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable by the Guarantor to the Trustee or into the Escrow Account. 

  

	 	(iii)	If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by the Guarantor from any payment made to the Trustee or into the Escrow Account, the amount of the payment due from the Guarantor will be increased to an amount which
(after making the Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required provided that the Guarantor shall not be required to make an increased payment under this Clause 25(a)(iii) in
respect of a Tax Deduction to the extent that the Tax Deduction in question has already been taken into account (outside the operation of this Clause) in calculating the amount of the payment due. 


 

	 	(iv)	If the Guarantor is required to make a Tax Deduction, the Guarantor must make the appropriate Tax Deduction and must make any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction to the relevant Tax authority within
the time allowed by law. 

  

	 	(v)	Within 60 days of making a payment required in connection with a Tax Deduction, the Guarantor must deliver to the Trustee evidence satisfactory to it (acting reasonably) that the appropriate payment has been paid to the
relevant Tax authority. 

  

	 	(vi)	If the Guarantor makes a Tax Payment and the Trustee determines (or is informed) that it is or may be entitled to obtain a Tax Credit which is attributable to that Tax Payment or to an increased payment of which that
Tax Payment forms part, the Trustee shall use all reasonable endeavours to obtain such Tax Credit and, in any event if the Trustee does obtain and utilise a Tax Credit, the Trustee shall pay to the Guarantor an amount which the Trustee determines
(acting reasonably) will leave the Trustee (after the payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Guarantor. 


 

	 	(vii)	Notwithstanding anything contained in this Clause 25(a), the net amounts received by the Trustee under this Deed (including any Tax Payments) shall not exceed the net amounts that would have been received by the Trustee
had such payments been made directly by the Sponsor and/or any of the IMPS Employers. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	37










	 	(viii)	In the event that the Guarantor is required by law to make a Tax Deduction from any payment made to the Trustee or into the Escrow Account under this Deed, the Trustee shall
co-operate with the Guarantor in completing any procedural formalities or other steps necessary for the Guarantor to obtain authorisation, or to otherwise enable the Guarantor, to make the relevant payment(s)
without a Tax Deduction. 

  

	 	(b)	Value added taxes: 

 Any amount payable under this Deed by the Guarantor which
constitutes the consideration for any supply for value added tax purposes is exclusive of any value added tax or any other Tax of a similar nature which is chargeable in connection with that amount. If any such Tax is chargeable and the Trustee is
required to account to the relevant Tax authority for that Tax, the Guarantor must pay to the Trustee (in addition to and at the same time as paying that amount) an amount equal to the amount of that Tax subject to the Trustee providing the
Guarantor with a valid VAT invoice in respect of the supply. 
  

	 	(c)	Stamp taxes: 

 The Guarantor shall pay and, within 15 Business Days of demand, indemnify
the Trustee against any cost, loss or liability that the Trustee incur in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar taxes payable in respect of this Deed. 
  

	26.	CURRENCY INDEMNITY 

  

	 	(a)	The Guarantor must, as an independent obligation, indemnify the Trustee against any loss or liability which the Trustee incurs as a consequence of the Trustee or the Escrow Account receiving an amount under this Deed in
a currency other than Sterling. 

  

	 	(b)	The Guarantor waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount under this Deed in a currency other than Sterling. 


 

	27.	ASSIGNMENT 

 None of the parties to this Deed shall assign or transfer in any way its
rights, interests or obligations under this Deed, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other parties, provided that the Trustee may transfer its rights under this Deed to any successor trustee or trustees of the Scheme or to
the Pension Protection Fund as a result of the operation of Section 161 of and Schedule 6 to the Pensions Act 2004; and provided further that nothing in this Clause 27 shall derogate from Clause 12. 

 

	28.	NOTICES

will argue to the contrary. 

  

	35.	AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS 

 Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed
under any relevant law: 
  

	 	(i)	the Guarantor shall at all times maintain an agent for service of process in England;

	 	(ii)	the Guarantor appoints the Sponsor as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with this Deed and agrees that failure by the process agent to notify the
Guarantor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned. 

  

	36.	SEVERABILITY 

 If any part or any provision of this Deed shall be or become illegal,
prohibited, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction all other provisions of this Deed shall continue in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of such provisions in any other

 SCHEDULE 1 

AGREED ASSUMPTIONS 
 Discount rate

 This assumption will be in line with the Willis Towers Watson GBP Zero Coupon Nominal Gilt curve (or such equivalent curve as the Trustee and the
Company shall agree). 
 Retail Price Inflation (RPI) 

This assumption will be in line with the Willis Towers Watson GBP Zero Coupon Gilt-implied Breakeven inflation curve (or such equivalent curve as the Trustee
and the Company shall agree) at the valuation date. 
 Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) 

This assumption will be set to 1.1% pa below the assumed rate of RPI. This is subject to review at subsequent triennial valuations if there are material
changes to the composition and/or derivation of either the RPI or CPI index such that this relationship is no longer reasonable. 
 Revaluation in
deferment and increases to pensions in payment 
 Increases will take account of the caps and floors on the relevant tranches of benefits by applying a
fixed deduction to the RPI inflation curve. This deduction is derived from the application of the ‘Black 76’ model with inflation set equal to the single equivalent RPI inflation assumption (as at 5 April 2015, 3.2% pa) (less the
above RPI – CPI margin if applicable) and inflation volatilities of 1.8% pa (RPI) and 1.5% pa (CPI). These volatility assumptions represent the year one best-estimate volatilities on the Willis Towers Watson model. They are subject to review at
subsequent triennial valuations based on best estimates on the Willis Towers Watson model (or equivalent) at the relevant valuation date. 
 Mortality
(base tables) 
 Pre-retirement and post-retirement mortality assumptions should be based on the latest standard
tables (as at 5 April 2015, the ‘S2’ tables), as modified to reflect the results of a postcode mortality analysis. The best-estimate multipliers issuing from such an analysis should be adjusted downwards by 5% as a margin for prudence
(as at 5 April 2015, the post code analysis supports using the ‘S2 light’ tables with multipliers following the 5% reduction of 1.04 (males) and 0.88 (females)). The assumptions will be updated at each triennial valuation but not
between valuations. 
 Mortality (future improvements) 

Future improvements in mortality should be based on the latest published version of the CMI core projections model (CMI 2014 for the 5 April 2015
valuation) with long-term rates of improvement for males and females of 1.5%, or such other assumption as agreed by the Trustee and the Company to be broadly in line with the benchmarking of assumptions adopted by other schemes. The assumptions will
be updated at each triennial valuation but not between valuations. 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	43









 Commutation 

Allowance to be made for members to commute (on average) 20% of their pension for cash at retirement on terms that are 25% less than the corresponding funding
reserve. The percentage of pension assumed to be commuted is subject to review in the light of actual experience between valuations. 
 Liability
management options at retirement 
 No allowance will be made in the 5 April 2015 funding valuation. Allowance may be made in the
5 April 2018 funding valuation (and in subsequent valuations) for members to take up certain “liability management” options at retirement. The Company proposes to amend the Scheme’s retirement process to include liability
management options (including possibly transfer values and pension increase exchanges). The Trustee and the Company will discuss for the 2018 funding valuation, the appropriate allowance to make for any such options that are introduced and taken up.
The allowance made will be based on actual Scheme experience and expectations of how future experience may differ. 
 Expense reserve 

A loading of 2.5% will be applied to the liabilities to cover the expenses of running the Scheme (including life assurance costs, but excluding PPF levies and
investment expenses), unless it is agreed by the Trustee and the Company that an alternative loading more appropriately represents these expenses. Investment expenses are assumed to be met from investment income. The discount rate is therefore
assumed to be net of investment expenses. PPF levies are to be paid by the Company as they arise. 
 Proportion married and age difference 

These assumptions are to be in line with the appended table. These may be subject to review at subsequent triennial valuations based on the Scheme’s
experience and/or the experience of pension schemes more generally where relevant and where the Scheme’s experience on its own is not sufficient to be statistically credible. 

Early retirement 
 Deferred members assumed to draw their
benefits at the earliest age at which those benefits are payable without reduction. 
 Discretionary benefits 

No allowance was made for any benefits payable which are subject to some exercise of discretion on the part of the Trustee or the Company including: 

 

	 	•	 	Temporary benefit improvements 

  

	 	•	 	Increases to pensions in payment above those guaranteed under the rules 

  

	 	•	 	Individual augmentations to benefits with the Scheme. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	44









 Other factors 

All assumptions are subject to review if there are changes in legislation or guidance from the Pensions Regulator that mean that these assumptions are no
longer reasonable. Any changes to the assumptions to be agreed by the Trustee and the Company. 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	45

 SCHEDULE 2 

AGREED INVESTMENT STRATEGY 
 Nothing in
this Agreed Investment Strategy is intended to amend, contradict or waive any rights or obligations of the parties under the Deed of Guarantee to which this is Schedule 2, including without limitation Clause 14 thereof. 

Definitions 
 Strategy at January 2018 

 

	 	•	 	50% growth asset allocation 

  

	 	•	 	50% matching asset allocation 

  

	 	•	 	With a 45% interest rate and 45% inflation hedge ratio relative to liabilities in line with “Agreed Assumptions” measured on a gilts +0.5% basis 


‘Gilts +1.0% pa’ strategy 
 An overall
asset portfolio which targets a best estimate return of gilts + 1% p.a. and manages the interest rate and inflation risk relative to liabilities measured on the Agreed Assumptions with a gilts plus 0.5% basis. Currently it is expected that
the resulting growth allocation will be in the region of 15%-25% with the remainder invested in matching assets to achieve an interest rate and inflation hedge ratio in the region of 90% to 100%. This
should be reviewed as necessary based on market opportunities. 
 The appropriateness of the Gilts +1.0% return target should at the minimum be reviewed
following each triennial valuation and additionally on material changes to market conditions. Both Trustee and Company, acting on investment advice, must agree to any change to the return target. 

‘Gilts +0.5% pa’ strategy 
 An overall
asset portfolio which targets a best estimate return of gilts + 0.5% p.a. and manages the interest rate and inflation risk relative to liabilities measured on the Agreed Assumptions with a gilts flat basis. Currently it is expected that the
resulting growth allocation will be in the region of 5%-15% with the remainder invested in matching assets targeting an interest rate and inflation hedge ratio in the region of 95% to 100%. This should be
reviewed as necessary. 
 The appropriateness of the Gilts +0.5% return target should at the minimum be reviewed following each triennial valuation and
additionally on material changes to market conditions. Both Trustee and Company, acting on investment advice, must agree to any change to the return target. 

Growth Assets 
 For the growth assets, the Trustee will
target a diversified portfolio using specialist managers and asset classes. Subject to adherence to the Agreed Glide Path, the Trustee will have ultimate responsibility for selecting the specialist managers and asset classes within the diversified
portfolio, but may delegate this responsibility to a specialist fiduciary manager. The Trustee will consult with the Company on the target return and risk characteristics of the overall portfolio. 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	47









 De-risking Strategy 

Funding level based de-risking triggers have been set such that the investment strategy evolves from the ‘Current
Strategy’ to the ‘Gilts plus 1.0% pa’ Strategy and then from the ‘Gilts plus 1.0% pa’ Strategy to the ‘Gilts + 0.5% pa’ Strategy within the timeframes described below. 

 

	 	•	 	By the time the Scheme is fully funded on a gilts + 0.5% pa basis in line with the Agreed Assumptions and no later than November 2021, the investment strategy will be de-risked in
line with the ‘Gilts +1.0% pa’ Strategy; 

  

	 	•	 	By the time the Scheme is fully funded on a gilts flat basis in line with the Agreed Assumptions and no later than November 2027, the investment strategy will be de-risked in line
with the ‘Gilts +0.5% pa’ Strategy. 

 These funding level triggers and the associated investment strategy are referred to herein as
the “Agreed Glide Path.” As the funding level moves along the Agreed Glide Path, the Strategy will de-risk. Each strategy corresponding to a trigger level will specify a minimum interest rate and
inflation hedge ratio and a maximum allocation to growth assets. Details of the Agreed Glide Path are set out in the Scheme’s Statement of Investment Principles. 

The funding level for this purpose will be measured on the Blackrock modelling tool (or such other model as the Trustee and the Company determines shall
replace this). 
 For the avoidance of doubt, investment in UK credit assets used for liability matching will not be considered to be growth assets. 

Application of triggers 
 Trigger based de-risking will occur automatically when a funding level trigger is reached, except where: 
  

	 	•	 	A trigger is breached because of a contribution over and above the expected monthly contributions of £917,000 (a “Special Contribution”), and 


 

	 	•	 	the Trustee or Company receive advice that application of the trigger would not be in the best interest of the Scheme due to adverse market conditions or other circumstances prevailing at that time. 


In such circumstances (“Special Circumstances”), the Trustee and the Company should share any advice received and discuss how to manage the de-risking after taking appropriate investment and funding advice. The Trustee will decide whether de-risking should take place in these circumstances, but must act reasonably
based on the advice received and (absent agreement from the Company) may not de-risk more quickly or to a greater extent than as contemplated by this Agreed Investment Strategy and the Deed of Guarantee were
it not for the Special Circumstances (other than the fact that the Special Contribution has been paid). Once the exact revised triggers and asset allocations have been agreed these should be documented formally. 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	48









 For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee and the Company have agreed that the contribution of
£60 million referred to in Clause 7(a) (contributions) of this Deed, and the implications for de-risking constitute Special Circumstances. 

Review of triggers 
 The triggers should be reviewed
periodically and adjusted as deemed necessary or desirable by the parties to ensure they still follow the principles set out above. 
 The triggers should
at a minimum be reviewed following each triennial valuation and additionally on material changes to market conditions. Both Trustee and Company, acting on investment advice, must agree to any change to the triggers.

 SCHEDULE 3 

CONFIGURATION DOCUMENT 

IPC Media Pension Scheme 

Asset Liability Suite Addendum: 

Liability and Asset Model 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	50









 Purpose of the document 
  

	1.	This document sets out an addendum to the liability model originally set out in the Configuration Requirements report (the “Requirements”) signed by Charlie Meredith on 2 June 2014 as referenced and
defined in the Asset Liability Suite (“ALS”) (or Asset Liability Tracker) software Licensing Agreement between Towers Watson Limited and the Licensee dated 20 May 2014 (the “Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, this
document is intended to be consistent with the Deed of Guarantee to which it is Schedule 3 entered into by the Licensee, Time Inc. (UK) Limited, and Time Inc. In the event that any provision of this document is or appears to be inconsistent with any
rights or obligations under that Deed of Guarantee, then the Deed of Guarantee will prevail. 

  

	2.	The purpose of the document is to: 

  

	 	•	 	Set out the specification for the “Gilts plus 0.5% pa”, “Gilts Flat” and “Estimated Insurance Buy-out” liability measures based on the cashflows
generated as part of the Scheme’s valuation as at 5 April 2015, including details of the Client-Specific LPI Curves and Buy-Out Module. 


 

	 	•	 	Set out the changes in the assumed cashflows in the asset model 

  

	3.	This document forms part of the Agreement and any work that Towers Watson does in accordance with the Requirements is undertaken on the terms of the Agreement, including the liability provisions therein. In particular,
this document does not constitute advice from Towers Watson, whether for the purposes of any separate consultancy agreement between the parties, any investment or actuarial advice more generally, or for any other purpose. 


 

	4.	This document is subject to the Limitations and Reliances as set out in the Requirements and the additional Limitations and Reliances set out in this document, and terms used in this document have the same meaning as in
the Requirements and the Agreement. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	51









 Liability Model – Gilts + 0.5% pa, Gilts Flat and Estimated Insurance
Buy-out measures 
 Liability values 

 

	5.	The liability information has been provided by the IPC Media Pension Scheme’s actuarial team at Towers Watson on behalf of the Licensee. This data includes a summary of the liability values, financial assumptions
and tracking rules as well as a set of “3D” 1cashflows for the Gilts + 0.5% pa and Estimated Insurance Buy-out measures produced as at
5 April 2015 in conjunction with the formal actuarial valuation at that date. These “3D” cashflows will be used for all of the liability measures below and incorporate information relating to the sensitivity of the liabilities to the
financial assumptions. The Gilts Flat measure will be set up using the Gilts + 0.5% pa cashflows. 

  

	1 	“3D” cashflows split out the cashflows for active deferreds, deferred, pensioner and dependant members. They also split out the cashflows by types of increase fixed, RPI (0,5) etc. Furthermore, they include
data on the lengths of the in-service, in-deferment and in-payment periods for each cashflow and thus fully describe the
sensitivity of the cashflows to independent changes in salary increases, revaluation in deferment and pension increase assumptions. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	52










	6.	ALS will track the Scheme’s Gilts + 0.5% pa, Gilts Flat and Estimated Insurance Buy-out liabilities. The value of these liabilities as at 5 April 2015 is set out in
the table below (a split of these liabilities between the different rates of increase is provided in the “3D” cashflows, referred to above):

 Expenses 
  

	7.	Expenses for the Gilts + 0.5% pa and Gilts Flat measures are calculated as 2.5% of the total liabilities for those measures. 

  

	8.	Expenses for the Estimated Insurance Buy-out measure are calculated in line with the approach prescribed for Section 179 PPF valuations. For the purposes of tracking the
liabilities, we have approximated this to be 1% of the total liabilities plus a fixed expense of £3.721 million as at 5 April 2015. 


Accrual of future service benefits 
  

	9.	The Scheme is closed to future accrual and so no allowance is made for further accrual. 

 Commutation

  

	10.	There is no explicit allowance for commutation of member’s pensions at retirement within the underlying “3D” cashflows for the Gilts + 0.5% pa (and Gilts Flat) measures. An allowance has been made for
members to commute (on average) 20% of their pension for cash at retirement on terms that are 25% less than the corresponding funding reserve on the Gilts + 0.5% pa and Gilts Flat measures. It has been assumed that at 5 April 2015, this
allowance will result in a reduction of 4.4% for active liabilities and 4.6% for deferred liabilities in the Gilts + 0.5% pa and Gilts Flat measures. 

  

	11.	No allowance has been made for commutation on the Estimated Insurance Buy-out measure. 


Tracking rules 
  

	12.	A summary of how the discount rate, inflation, pension increase assumption, and revaluation assumptions are calculated each day is set out below. The Estimated Insurance Buy-out
measure tracks the discount rate using the Towers Watson Buy-Out Model in ALS. Further details of the methodology underlying the Towers Watson ‘Settlement Watch’ tracking in the Buy-out Module is set out in the Limitations and Reliances at the end of this document.

 Daily tracking of liability value 

 

	13.	The daily tracking of the liability values is achieved using the following approach: 

  

	 	•	 	The base set of cashflows is adjusted daily for “actual” RPI or CPI inflation experience, in line with a specially constructed inflation index that is calculated on a daily basis. The inflation index used is
constructed by interpolating between monthly RPI or CPI values with a two-month lag, to be consistent with the inflation curves used in the model. 


 

	 	•	 	An updated set of projected benefit cashflows are created from the starting cashflows by: 

  

	 	•	 	deducting benefit payments expected to have been made since the last calculation date. 

  

	 	•	 	adjusting the cashflows to reflect the sensitivity to investment conditions as described above. 

  

	 	•	 	These updated cashflows are discounted to the new calculation date using the discount rate model summarised in paragraph 12. Cashflows are assumed to be discounted half-way
through the years between each anniversary of the calculation date. 

  

	14.	Historic salary increases/pension increases/deferred revaluation since the valuation date that differ from the assumptions set out above are not captured in the daily tracking process. Material adjustments will need to
be referred to Towers Watson. 

 Future recalibrations 
  

	15.	The liabilities will be recalibrated following the end of each quarter to allow for: 

  

	 	•	 	Any material3 differences between the actuarial assumptions updated in line with the tracking rules in paragraph 12 and the actual assumptions at the same date that
would result from application of the principles in Schedule 1 to the Deed of Guarantee to which it is schedule 3. If appropriate the fixed margins and proportions of yields (as set out in paragraph 12) will be updated, or recalibrated as agreed by
the Licensee and Time Inc. (UK) Ltd. 

  

	 	•	 	the impact of actual benefit cashflows (including commutation lump sums and transfer values) over the period compared with those underlying the liability calculation in ALS. The liabilities will first be reduced by an
amount equal to (actual benefit cashflows over the period since the previous recalibration) minus (assumed benefit cashflows over the period since the previous recalibration). The liabilities will then be adjusted by an amount approximately
representing the difference between the total commutation lump sums and transfer values paid and the value of the liabilities extinguished on the relevant measure. The first such recalibration will be as at 30 September 2015 and will reflect
actual and assumed benefit cashflows between 5 April 2015 and 30 September 2015. This initial recalibration will also include an adjustment to ensure the liabilities reflect market conditions at 30 September 2015 (whereas the initial
liability values at 5 April 2015 set out in paragraph 6 reflect market conditions as at 31 March 2015). These liability recalibrations will be carried out at the same time as the asset recalibrations described in paragraph 25 and will be
completed within 20 business days of the quarter-end. 

  

	16.	In addition the liabilities will be recalibrated annually to allow for actual pension increases and deferred revaluation, once known, to the extent they differ from the daily inflation tracking described in paragraph
13. The first such recalibration will be as at 31 March 2016 (reflecting the pension increases due on 6 April 2016). 


 

	3 	For the purpose of this paragraph a material difference is one that causes a difference in liability values of more than 1%. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	55










	17.	With the written agreement of both the Licensee and Time Inc. (UK) Ltd, the liabilities may be updated, based on calculations carried out by the Scheme’s actuarial team at Towers Watson to reflect Scheme experience
since the valuation date. This written agreement should not be unreasonably withheld by either party. This may include (not exclusively) membership movements and mortality experience. 


 

	18.	The “3D” cashflows underlying the liability calculations will be updated following each actuarial valuation of the Scheme under Section 224 of the Pensions Act 2004. 


 

	19.	The Licensee and Time Inc. (UK) Ltd will be informed of any such changes relating to paragraph 15, 16 and 17 above when they are made but a signed addendum will not be required. 


Asset model 
  

	20.	The Scheme’s asset value as at 5 April 2015 was £476.851 million (excluding AVCs but including insured pensions). The asset allocation and asset tracking has been provided by the Scheme’s
Investment Team at Towers Watson on behalf of the Licensee. ALS will assume that from 5 April 2015 the Scheme’s assets track the following indices (with no rebalancing), expense allowance and cashflow allocations:

	Benefit payments	  	Assumed to be payable daily in line with the benefit cashflow projections adopted for the liability tracking.

  

	22.	The cashflows are assumed to be allocated to/removed from each asset category in the proportions outlined in paragraph 20 (or such proportions that may supersede those set out in paragraph 20 following application of
paragraphs 24, 25, 26 and 27). 

 Asset tracking 
  

	23.	A summary of the steps involved in the daily asset tracking calculation are set out below. 

  

	 	•	 	ALS will initiate its calculation by referencing the close of play asset values on the previous calculation date. 

  

	 	•	 	The change in the total return index for each asset class (as specified above) will be calculated in respect of the period from the previous calculation date to the current calculation date. 


 

	 	•	 	A reduction in the return will be made in respect of the investment management expenses specified in paragraph 20. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	57










	 	•	 	This net return will be applied to each asset class to provide an updated market value for each category. 

  

	 	•	 	Contributions, expenses and benefit payments as specified above are allocated to/removed from each asset category. 

  

	24.	There is a significant review of the current investment strategy currently being undertaken. The asset model in ALS will be recalibrated to reflect the revised investment strategy, as agreed by the Licensee and Time
Inc. (UK) Ltd once the review has been finalised. The details of this asset model recalibration will be set out in a subsequent addendum which will be required to be signed. 


 

	25.	Notwithstanding the asset model recalibration set out in paragraph 24, the assets will be recalibrated following the end of each quarter after the initial calibration to reflect the actual asset value at the end of the
preceding quarter. These recalibrations will be carried out at the same time as the liability recalibrations described in paragraph 15 and will be completed within 20 business days of the quarter-end. The
first such recalibration will be as at 30 September 2015. 

  

	26.	Further recalibrations of the assets will be made to reflect changes in the investment strategy and changes in the benchmark indices used for tracking. Other reasons for such recalibrations, include but are not limited
to, changes in the expected cashflow information and changes to investment management expenses. 

  

	27.	The assets will also be recalibrated following the payment of the contribution of £50 million expected to be paid by 31 December 2015 and at the end of the month prior to the sixth, seventh and eighth
anniversaries of the sale completion (based on the latest available asset values at those dates). These recalibrations will be completed within 15 business days of the recalibration date. 


 

	28.	The Licensee and Time Inc. (UK) Ltd will be informed of any such changes relating to paragraphs 25, 26 and 27 above when they are made but a signed addendum will not be required.

 Limitations and Reliances 

Modelling issues to be acknowledged by Licensee 
 Due to
the complexity of pension schemes, it is inevitable that models will need to be used to represent a pension scheme’s assets and liabilities in the Asset Liability Tracker calculations. Any models specified by the Licensee will however need to
be in a format that is compatible with the more generic model or range of inputs permitted by the Software. 
 Tracking of liability measures requires use
of a model for which the Licensee specifies forward looking assumptions, together with rules as to how those assumptions might change as investment market conditions change. 

Tracking of assets also requires the use of models to represent the actual investment portfolio held, for which the Licensee specifies proxies for actual
investment returns (such as benchmark investment returns and assumptions as to expected outperformance). 
 In addition, the data made available by the
Licensee may necessitate certain models to be used to represent the experience of the pension scheme. 
 Therefore, the Licensee should take appropriate
professional advice before agreeing its Configuration Requirements, and before taking action, or not taking action, in respect of any results (including the provision or absence of an email alert) obtained from the Software. 

Further, any models that are developed by the Licensee for use in the Software (including models underlying the configuration of asset calculations, liability
calculations and/or trigger calculations) may cease to be appropriate. The Licensee should therefore take appropriate, ongoing advice on the continued suitability of the Configuration Requirements and any changes or updates that may be required to
the Configuration Requirements. 
 The Licensee acknowledges that the functionality (including trigger status reports and email alerts) depends on the data
and models adopted from time to time and that a recalibration may subsequently indicate that a trigger status would have differed in the past had this new data then been available. 

Towers Watson yield curves 
 Towers Watson Limited
(“Towers Watson”) produces curves based on pricing data from FTSE International and indicative pricing received from a range of major investment banks in the swaps market. Towers Watson uses these data sources to form a view on the best
estimate level of the relevant curves. Whilst reasonable care has been taken to gauge the reliability of this data, Towers Watson provides no guarantee as to the accuracy or completeness of the curves. Towers Watson and its affiliates and their
respective directors, officers and employees cannot be held accountable for any errors or misrepresentations in the data made by any third party. Towers Watson’s curves are based on data available to Towers Watson that represent market
conditions as at the date of the curve and take no account of subsequent developments in market conditions thereafter. No curve prepared by Towers Watson constitutes an offer or recommendation, nor should it be construed as an offer or
recommendation, to conclude any transaction. No curve of itself purports to be, nor should it be considered, a substitute for specific advice. Reliance on any separate advice based on these curves should take into account the limitations set out in
this notice, as well as any further limitations within the advice itself. 
 The methodology for interpolating, extrapolating, averaging, smoothing and
including or excluding data is necessarily subjective and is regularly reviewed and updated by Towers Watson according to its best judgement, and is subject to change without notice. Different methods will inevitably lead to different results. 

  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	60









 As at the date of this disclaimer, there is no active market in gilts beyond 50 years and most swaps beyond 50 or
60 years. Extra care needs to be taken when using curve data in relation to maturity dates beyond the longest traded instruments, since these depend on extrapolation of the curve. 

The market for certain swaps may not be actively traded at certain times (for example, certain “exotic” types of inflation swaps with caps and
floors). Care is needed when drawing inferences from these swap curves since the market may be illiquid, the number of banks willing to quote these rates may be lower, bid and offer spreads may be wider, and quoted prices may not be representative
of prices at which trades can actually be transacted. As with all market prices, the market rate may or may not include a positive or negative risk premium, so is not necessarily an unbiased estimator of expected future experience. 

Except as may be required by law, Towers Watson’s curves may not be modified, sold, distributed, shown or otherwise made available to any other party
without Towers Watson’s prior written permission. In the absence of its express written permission to the contrary, Towers Watson and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers and employees accept no responsibility and will not be
liable for any consequences howsoever arising from any third party’s use of or reliance on these curves 

Buy-out module 

The purpose of the buy-out module is to enable users to automatically track the estimated funding position of a pension
scheme on a solvency basis, based on the latest Towers Watson yield curve and the Settlement Watch central buy-out basis margins produced by Towers Watson transaction specialists. 

The Settlement Watch methodology is as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	Pricing data is provided each month by a number of different insurers in the form of joint life annuities. 

  

	 	•	 	For each of these pensioner joint life annuities an implied discount rate is ‘back-solved’. 

  

	 	•	 	Separately, cashflows are generated for notional members with benefits corresponding to those assumed in the insurers’ pricing data. 


 

	 	•	 	These cashflows are applied to Towers Watson’s yield curves to produce single equivalent gilt discount rates. 

  

	 	•	 	These single equivalent gilt discount rates are compared to the ‘back-solved’ discount rate from the annuities to imply the ‘margin’ relative to gilts for both nil increasing and LPI(0,5) annuities
at ages 60 and 70. 

  

	 	•	 	Due to non-disclosure agreements covering the insurers pricing data, this information can only be shared in an aggregated form. To achieve this: 


 

	 	•	 	the pensioner margins at age 60 and 70 from a given insurer for a given benefit are combined, placing an equal weighting on each age 


 

	 	•	 	the 75th percentile of the range of the margins across insurers for both nil increasing and LPI(0,5) pricing are communicated to a group of Towers Watson transaction specialists (here the 75th percentile is towards that
end of the range which would imply a smaller liability and is set at this level in anticipation of the expected outcome from running a competitive quotation process). 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	61










	 	•	 	Towers Watson transaction specialists meet monthly to agree the Settlement Watch central buy-out basis margins, taking in to account the output of the analysis described above,
relevant market data and their knowledge of any recent transaction activity. 

  

	 	•	 	This group will also form a view as to the appropriate margin for deferred bulk annuity pricing. 

  

	 	•	 	The daily Towers Watson yield curve is then combined with the latest monthly buy-out basis margins, to give curves that can then be used by Asset Liability Suite.


 The methodology for these calculations is necessarily subjective and is regularly reviewed and updated by Towers Watson according to its
best judgement, and is subject to change without notice. Different methods will inevitably lead to different results. 
 Limitations and Reliances of
tracking discount rate using the Buy-out module 
  

	 	•	 	This tracking feature only produces an approximate indication of the Fund’s buy-out liability. The liability produced should not be used as a substitute for a direct
quotation from an insurer. If you wish to obtain a formal quotation please speak to your Towers Watson consultant. 

  

	 	•	 	In order to ‘back-solve’ the implied discount rate from the pricing information supplied by the insurers, the other variables underlying this, including the mortality assumption, need to be fixed. Each month
the Towers Watson transaction specialists will therefore consider if they believe the insurers to have updated the mortality assumptions they have used in the pricing information they have provided. If the specialists do believe there has been a
change they will update the assumption used in their ‘back-solve’ calculation accordingly. 

  

	 	•	 	However, such a change in insurer pricing would not be automatically reflected in the output from the module as the mortality assumptions used to generate the cash flows loaded into ALS will not have automatically been
updated. 

  

	 	•	 	The mortality assumptions used in the ‘back-solve’ calculations are kept under regular review by the Settlement Watch team but are typically not expected to change more often than annually (and in some cases
not even that frequently). 

  

	 	•	 	Similarly the buy-out module does not automatically capture any change in the Towers Watson transaction specialists’ view as to changes in insurer pricing for CPI linked
benefits. 

  

	 	•	 	If the mortality assumptions do change or the Towers Watson specialists’ view on the pricing of CPI linked benefits change then your Towers Watson consultant will be notified and can advise you on whether a further
recalibration of ALS would be appropriate. 

  

	 	•	 	Similarly the buy-out module does not automatically capture any change in the Towers Watson transaction specialists’ view as to changes in insurer pricing for CPI linked
benefits. 

  

	 	•	 	Due to the time taken to receive and analyse pricing information from the insurers, the buy-out basis margins are not normally available in ALS until 10 working days after each
month end. Therefore each discount rate curve has two separate versions: 

  

	 	•	 	One version which will pause at the end of each month and will not display a liability values for the current month until the central buy-out basis margins have been set, at which
point production of the daily discount rate curves will resume and calculation of the liability values since the month end will commence. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	62










	 	•	 	A second version which will continue to produce daily discount rate curves (and hence liability calculations) using the latest available margins, picking up any changes in margins as soon as they become available (which
would normally be part way through each calendar month). When the margins are updated, Asset Liability Tracker’s liability calculations since the month end will not automatically be restated, i.e. the results calculated between the month end
and the date the margins are updated will remain on the previous month’s buy-out margins. 

 The
second of these two options is being used for the Estimated Insurance Buy-out measure discount rate tracking for the IPC Media Pension Scheme.

Subsidiaries) by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date of any Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock that has been converted into or exchanged for Equity Interests of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock), plus,
without duplication, any cash proceeds and the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of marketable securities or other property received by the Issuer or any Restricted subsidiary upon such conversion or exchange; plus

	 	(12)	for any taxable period in which the taxable income of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is included in a consolidated, combined or similar income tax group of which a direct or indirect parent of the Issuer is the
common parent (a “Tax Group”), an amount not to exceed the tax liabilities that the Issuer and the applicable Subsidiaries, in the aggregate, would have been required to pay in respect of such taxable income if such entities were a
standalone group of corporations separate from such Tax Group (it being understood and agreed that, if the Issuer or any Subsidiary pays any portion of such tax liabilities directly to any taxing authority, a Restricted Payment in duplication of
such amount shall not be permitted to be made pursuant to this clause (12));

	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	74










	 	(c)	The Issuer will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the last sentence of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any
Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be an Investment in an amount determined
as set forth in the definition of “Investment.” Such designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time, whether as a Restricted Payment or a Permitted Investment, and if such Subsidiary
otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the covenants set forth in the Indenture. 

  

	 	(d)	For purposes of clauses (2) and (3) of Section 4.07(b), a Restricted Payment shall be deemed to have been made substantially concurrently with the applicable event if made or irrevocably committed to be made
within 90 days of such event. 

  

	 	(e)	The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) on the date of such Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be
paid, transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. 

  

	 	(f)	For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.07, in the event that a proposed Restricted Payment or Investment (or a portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of
Restricted Payments described in clauses (1) through (15) of Section 4.07(b) above and/or one or more of the clauses contained in the definition of “Permitted Investments,” or is entitled to be made pursuant to
Section 4.07(a), the Issuer will be entitled to divide or classify (or later divide, classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such Restricted Payment or Investment (or portion thereof) among such clauses
(1) through (15) of Section 4.07(a) and/or one or more of the clauses contained in the definition of “Permitted Investments,” in a manner that otherwise complies with this covenant. 


 

	 	(g)	For the avoidance of doubt, this covenant shall not restrict the making of any “AHYDO catch-up payment” with respect to, and required by the terms of, any Indebtedness
of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries permitted to be incurred under the Indenture. 

 SECTION 4.08 Dividend and
Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries 
 . 
  

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

  

	 	(1)  (A)	pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries on its Capital Stock, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or

	 	(B)	pay any Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	(2)	make loans or advances to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 

  

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

  

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

  

	 	(1)	contractual encumbrances or restrictions in effect on the Issue Date; 

  

	 	(2)	(i) the Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees and 

  

	 	(ii)	any agreement governing Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09; provided that the provisions relating to restrictions of the type described in clauses (1) through (3) of
Section 4.08(a) contained in such agreement, taken as a whole, are (in the good faith determination of the Issuer) not materially more restrictive than the provisions contained in the Senior Credit Facilities, or in the Indenture, in each case
as in effect when initially executed; 

  

	 	(3)	purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Capitalized Lease Obligations that impose restrictions of the nature discussed in Section 4.08(a)(3) on the property so
acquired or leased; 

  

	 	(4)	applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order; 

  

	 	(5)	any agreement or other instrument of a Person (including an Unrestricted Subsidiary that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary whether by redesignation or otherwise) acquired by or merged or consolidated with or into the
Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in existence at the time of such transaction (but not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other
than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired; 

  

	 	(6)	contracts for the sale of assets, including customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary of the Issuer that impose restrictions solely on the assets to be sold; 


 

	 	(7)	any Hedging Obligations; 

  

	 	(8)	Secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09 and Section 4.12 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness; 


 

	 	(9)	restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by leases, customers under contracts or other contracts or agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	76










	 	(10)	other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries permitted to be incurred subsequent to the Issue Date pursuant to Section 4.09;


  

	 	(11)	customary provisions in joint venture agreements or arrangements and other similar agreements or arrangements relating solely to such joint venture; 


 

	 	(12)	customary provisions contained in leases, sub-leases, licenses or sub-licenses, permits, contracts and other agreements, in each case,
entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

  

	 	(13)	any agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, not relating to Indebtedness and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially impair (in the good faith determination of the Issuer) the
ability of the Issuer or the Guarantors to pay the principal and interest on the Notes; 

  

	 	(14)	any agreement for the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the Capital Stock or the assets of a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent it restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending such
sale or other disposition;

replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (1) through (16) of this Section 4.08(b); provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements,
refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith determination of the Issuer, no more restrictive in any material respect with respect to such encumbrance and other restrictions taken as a whole than those prior to such amendment,
modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing; and 

  

	 	(18)	restrictions created in connection with any Receivables Facility that, in the good faith determination of the Issuer, are necessary or advisable to effect such Receivables Facility; provided that such
restrictions apply only to the applicable Receivables Subsidiary. 

  

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

Preferred Stock 
 . 
  

	(a)	The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable for (collectively,
“incur” and collectively, an “incurrence”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) and the Issuer shall not issue any shares of Disqualified Stock and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue
any shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary may incur
Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), issue shares of Disqualified Stock and issue shares of Preferred Stock, if the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio at the time such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock is issued would have been no greater than 3.50 to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom); provided further, however, that Restricted
Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors may not incur Indebtedness or issue Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock if, after giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or issuance, more than an aggregate of $300,000,000 at the time of incurrence
of such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of such Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors is outstanding pursuant to this Section 4.09(a), clause (12) of Section 4.09(b) with respect to Refinancing
Indebtedness in respect of the foregoing and clause (17) of Section 4.09(b). 

  

	(b)	The provisions of Section 4.09(a) shall not apply to:

Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to

	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	84










	 	
provided that, in the case of clause (2) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the
Issuer or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable
Commitment”); and provided further that if any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds if not
otherwise applied as provided above within 450 days of the receipt of such Net Proceeds; or 

  

	 	(3)	any combination of the foregoing. 

  

	(c)	Any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”. When the

purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (or, in respect of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if
any, as may be provided for or permitted by the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. 


 

	(d)	The Issuer shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $50,000,000 by mailing (or otherwise delivering in accordance with the
applicable procedures of the Depositary) the notice required pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, with a copy mailed or electronically transmitted to the Trustee (with a copy to the Pension Trustee). 


 

	(e)	 To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to
an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in the Indenture. If the aggregate amount (determined as above) of Notes
and the Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered in an Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer or the agent for such Pari Passu Indebtedness shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be
purchased on a pro rata basis (or as nearly pro rata as practicable) based on the amount (determined as set forth above) of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered, unless otherwise required by law or the rules of the principal national
securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness are listed or by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary; provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall
be repurchased in part. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. The Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, at its option in its sole discretion, may make an Asset Sale Offer and




  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	85










	 	
satisfy the obligations described under this Section 4.10 with respect to any Excess Proceeds prior to the amount of Excess Proceeds exceeding $50,000,000, in which case, upon completion of
any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reduced by the amounts of such Excess Proceeds. If any Excess Proceeds remain after the completion of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may use those
Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. 

  

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

  

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

	 	(1)	such Affiliate Transaction is on terms, taken as a whole, that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction

	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	88










	 	(20)	(A) the guarantee by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Indebtedness of any parent company of the Issuer that becomes the parent company of the Issuer in a Change of Control transaction consummated in
accordance with the Indenture, or of any Indebtedness of Subsidiaries of such parent company; provided that such guarantee was permitted by the terms of the Indenture to be incurred and (B) the granting by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of any Liens to secure such Indebtedness or such guarantee; provided that such Liens are permitted to be incurred under the Indenture. 


SECTION 4.12 Liens 
 The Issuer shall not, and
shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee, on any asset or property of
the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary whether now owned or hereafter acquired, unless: 
  

	(1)	in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and any obligations under this Deed are (or in the case of a Lien on any asset or property of such Guarantor, its Guarantee is) secured by a Lien on
such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens; or 

  

	(2)	in the case of Liens securing any other Indebtedness, the Notes are (or in the case of a Lien on any asset or property of such Guarantor, its Guarantee is) secured by an equal and ratable (or prior ranking) Lien on such
property, assets or proceeds. 

 Any Lien created for the benefit of the holders of the Notes or the Pension Trustee pursuant to this
Section 4.12 shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the applicable Lien described in clauses(1) and (2) of this Section 4.12. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.12, a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to the
second preceding paragraph of this Section 4.12 or to one category (or portion thereof) of the Permitted Liens described in clauses (1) through (38) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” but may be permitted in part under any
combination thereof. 
 With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such
Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of
interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of common equity of a Restricted Subsidiary or any direct or
indirect parent of a Restricted Subsidiary, the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount
of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness described in the definition of “Indebtedness”.

 SECTION 4.13 [Reserved] 

SECTION 4.14 Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries 

The Issuer shall not permit any Subsidiary that is a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Guarantor to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or
a Guarantor unless (x) the aggregate amount of all such Indebtedness guaranteed by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors does not exceed $50,000,000 or (y): 
  

	(1)	the aggregate amount of all such Indebtedness guaranteed by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors exceeds $50,000,000; 

  

	(2)	within 45 days after the date that such Indebtedness is guaranteed, such Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to the Indenture, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D to the
Indenture, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, and an Accession Letter to this Deed, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor: 


 

	 	(A)	if the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee or obligations under this Deed are subordinated in right of payment to such Indebtedness, the Guarantee under the supplemental indenture and the guarantee under the
Accession Letter shall be subordinated to such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee with respect to such Indebtedness substantially to the same extent as the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee or the obligations under this Deed are
subordinated to such Indebtedness; and 

  

	 	(B)	if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be
subordinated in right of payment to such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee of the Notes and guarantee in relation to this Deed substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or such Guarantor’s
Guarantee; and 

  

	(3)	the Issuer shall within such 45 days deliver (with notice to the Pension Trustee of such delivery) to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) such Guarantee has been duly executed and authorized and
(B) such Guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including all laws relating to fraudulent
transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity and; 

 provided that this
Section 4.14 shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a
Restricted Subsidiary. The Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor, in which case such Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with
the 45 day periods described in this Section 4.14.

 SECTION 4.15 Suspension of Certain Covenants. 

 

	(a)	If at any date following the Issue Date, (1) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies and (2) no Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture a “Covenant
Suspension Event” shall be deemed to have occurred. Beginning on the day of a Covenant Suspension Event and ending on a Reversion Date (such period a “Suspension Period”) with respect to the Notes, the Issuer and its
Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to Section 4.07, Section 4.08, Section 4.09, Section 4.10, Section 4.11, Section 4.14, Section 4.16 and Section 4.17 (collectively, the “Suspended
Covenants”). 

  

	(b)	If on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraws its Investment Grade Rating or downgrades the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating,
the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants with respect to future events. The period of time beginning on the day of a Covenant Suspension Event and ending on a Reversion Date is referred
to herein as a “Suspension Period”. 

  

	(c)	During any Suspension Period, the Guarantees of the Guarantors will be suspended, and such Guarantees will be reinstated on each Reversion Date. On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock incurred during the Suspension Period will be classified as having been incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or one of the clauses set forth in Section 4.09(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
would be permitted to be incurred thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date). To the extent such
Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock would not be so permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or 4.09(b), such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been outstanding on
the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 4.09(b)(3). 

  

	(d)	 Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments in
Section 4.07 will be made as though Section 4.07 had been in effect since the Issue Date (but not during the Suspension Period); provided that, during the Suspension Period the Issuer shall not designate any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to be Unrestricted Subsidiaries unless the Issuer would have been permitted to designate such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if a Suspension Period had not been in effect for any period. In addition, for purposes of
Section 4.11, all agreements, arrangements and transactions entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with an Affiliate of the Issuer during the applicable Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to
have been entered 



  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	91










	 	
into on or prior to the Issue Date, and for purposes of Section 4.08, all contracts entered into during the applicable Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date that contain any of the
restrictions contemplated by such covenant will be deemed to have been existing on the Issue Date. For purposes of Section 4.10, on the Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero. 


  

			
	Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee	  	92










	(e)	The Issuer shall deliver promptly to the Trustee (with a copy to the Pension Trustee) an Officer’s Certificate notifying it of any Covenant Suspension Event and reinstatement of Suspended Covenants on a Reversion
Date under this Section 4.15. The Trustee shall not have any duty to monitor whether or not a Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date has occurred or if a Suspension Period has commenced or ended, nor any duty to notify the noteholders of
any of the foregoing. 

  

	(f)	Notwithstanding the reinstatement of the Suspended Covenants on a Reversion Date, no Default or Event of Default or breach of any kind under the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees shall be deemed to have occurred on
such Reversion Date as a result of any actions taken by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period (or upon the termination of the Suspension Period or thereafter based solely on events that occurred during the Suspension
Period) to the extent such actions were permitted under the Indenture during the Suspension Period, and none of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for any actions taken or events occurring during the applicable Suspension
Period to the extent such actions were permitted under the Indenture during the Suspension Period, regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. On
and after each Reversion Date, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to consummate the transactions contemplated by any contract entered into during any Suspension Period so long as such contract and such consummation would have been
permitted during such Suspension Period. 

 SECTION 4.16 Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions 

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction; provided, that
the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a Sale and Lease-Back Transaction if: 
  

	(1)	the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could have (a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction under Section 4.09 and
(b) incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness without equally and ratably securing the Notes pursuant to Section 4.12; and 

  

	(2)	the transfer of assets in such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction is permitted by, and the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with, Section 4.10.
