DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION 
 BY
REFERENCE 
 Section 1.01 Definitions. 

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

“ABL Collateral Agent” means Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, as collateral agent under the Credit Agreement, and its successors,
replacements and/or assigns in such capacity. 
 “ABL Obligations” means the Indebtedness and other obligations which are secured

“ABL Priority Collateral” has the meaning assigned to it in the Senior Lien Intercreditor Agreement. 

“Acquired Debt” means, with respect to any specified Person: 

(1) Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or became a Subsidiary of

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

“Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or
indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control,” as used with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the

with” have correlative meanings.

additional paying agent.

(i) the redemption price of the Note at October 15, 2018, (such redemption price being set forth in the table appearing in Section 3.07 hereof) plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the Note through October 15,
2018, (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over (b) the principal amount of the Note.

Euroclear and Clearstream that apply to such action. 
 “Asset Sale” means: 

(1) the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of any assets or rights by the Company or any of the Company’s

 (2) the issuance of Equity Interests by any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries or
the sale by the Company or any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries of Equity Interests in any of the Company’s Subsidiaries.

“Capital Lease Obligation” means, at the time any determination is to be made, the amount of the liability in respect of a capital
lease that would at that time be required to be capitalized on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the Stated Maturity thereof shall be the date of the last payment of rent or any other amount due under such lease prior to the

such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes
represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of
outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof. 

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. 

At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be
valid. 
 A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence
that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee will cause an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or a duly
appointed authenticating agent) to manually sign the certificate of authentication of a Note only if (1) the Company delivers such Note to the Trustee; (2) such Note is executed by the Company in accordance with this Section; (3) the
Company delivers a written order of the Company signed by two Officers (an “Authentication Order”) to the Trustee that (a) requests the Trustee to authenticate such Note; and (b) sets forth the name of the Holder of such
Note and the date as of which such Note is to be authenticated; and (4) an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate delivered is to the Trustee. If such Company Order also requests the Trustee to deliver such Note to any Holder or
to the Depositary, then the Trustee will promptly deliver such Note in accordance with such Company Order. 
 On the Closing Date, there
will be originally issued two hundred seventy-five million dollars ($275,000,000) aggregate principal amount of Notes, subject to the provisions of this Indenture (including Section 2.02). The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at
any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Notes authorized for issuance by the Company pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in Section 2.07 hereof. 

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

 Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more
co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without
notice to any Holder. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act
as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 The Company initially appoints The Bank of New York
Mellon Trust Company, N.A. to act as Registrar and Paying Agent. 
 The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company
(“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. 
 The Company initially appoints the Registrar to act as Custodian
with respect to the Global Notes. 
 Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Paying Agent shall (or if the Paying Agent is not a party hereto, the Company will require such Paying Agent to agree in writing that such
Paying Agent will) hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in
making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment
over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) will have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit
of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 

Section 2.05 Holder Lists. 

The Trustee will preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of
all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company will furnish to the Trustee at least ten Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such
date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes. 
 Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange.

 (a) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of
the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be
exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if: 
 (1) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depositary that
it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 120 days after the date of such
notice from the Depositary; 

  
 28 








 (2) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the Global Notes (in whole

(3) there has occurred and is continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes, and the Company, the Trustee
or the Registrar has received a written request from DTC, or from a holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, to exchange such Global Note or beneficial interest. 

Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events in (1) or (2) above, Definitive Notes shall be issued in such names as the
Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any
portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in
this Section 2.06(a), however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) hereof. 

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes

interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(2) above and the Registrar receives the following:

(h) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 

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

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

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

  
 37 








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

(7) The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02
hereof. 
 (8) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to
this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile. 
 Section 2.07 Replacement Notes.

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

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it
that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 
 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01
hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an
Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest. 

  
 38 








 Section 2.08 Treasury Notes. 

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

Section 2.09 Temporary Notes. 

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

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

Section 2.10 Cancellation. 

The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any
Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes
(subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.11 Authorization of Additional Notes. 

The Company may issue additional notes under this Indenture from time to time. Any issuance of additional notes is subject to all of the
covenants in this Indenture. The Notes and any additional notes subsequently issued under this Indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and
offers to purchase provided that the Notes and additional notes are fungible for United States federal income tax purposes. 
 Section 2.12
Defaulted Interest. 
 If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any
lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Company
will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no
such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and
at the expense of the Company) will give or cause to be given to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

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

(2) the redemption date; 

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

(4) the redemption price. 

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for
redemption or purchase in compliance with the Applicable Procedures, or if such Notes are not held through a Depositary or there are no relevant Applicable Procedures, on a pro rata basis. 

In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased will be selected, unless otherwise
provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption or purchase date by the Trustee (pursuant to any relevant Applicable Procedures) from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase. No Notes in
amounts of $2,000 or less may be redeemed in part. 
 The Trustee will promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for
redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000
in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of
this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will
give or cause to be given, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection
with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 8 or 12 hereof. 
 The notice will
identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state: 
 (1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price; 

(3) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the
redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Note; 

  
 40 








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

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

(6) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to
accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which
the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
 (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or
accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee will give
the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give
such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 
 Section 3.04 Effect of
Notice of Redemption. 
 Any redemption and notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or
more conditions precedent (including, in the case of a redemption related to an Equity Offering, the consummation of such Equity Offering). Once notice of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption
become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price, subject to any conditions set forth in the notice of redemption. 

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

Before 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the redemption or purchase date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent
money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the
Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to
accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall
be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company
to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at
the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
 Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

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

 Section 3.09 Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. 

In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Company is required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Notes (an
“Asset Sale Offer”), it will follow the procedures specified below. 
 The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The
Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No
later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes or, if less than the Offer Amount has been
tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. 

If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid
interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 

Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will give a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders, with a copy to the
Trustee and the Paying Agent. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state: 

(1) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of
time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open; 
 (2) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 

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

(4) that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer
will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
 (5) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an
Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof only; 

(6) that Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with
the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, a Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or the Paying Agent at the address specified in the
notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 
 (7) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the
Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, an email, PDF, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the
Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 

(8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Company will
select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Notes surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes denominations of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof, will be purchased); and 

  
 43 








 (9) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes
equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer). 
 On or before the
Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has
been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company
in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an
amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon written request from the Company, will authenticate and mail or
deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the
Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. 
 Other than as specifically
provided in this Section 3.09, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 hereof.

Section 4.01 Payment of Notes. 

The Company will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided

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

  
 44 








 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the
Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an
office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or
agency. 
 The Company hereby designates the Office of the Paying Agent as one such office or agency of the Company in accordance with
Section 2.03 hereof.

required to file such reports; and 
 (2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if
the Company were required to file such reports. 
 All such reports shall be prepared by the Company in all material respects in accordance

will not accept such a filing) and will post the reports on its website within those time periods. 
 If, at any time, the Company is no
longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding paragraphs with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the
SEC will not accept such a filing. The Company will not take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the SEC will not accept the Company’s filings for any reason, the
Company will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website within the time periods that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the SEC. 

(b) If the Company has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information

Guarantees the Obligations under the Notes, the Company may satisfy its obligations under this Section

financial information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such direct or indirect parent and any of its Subsidiaries other than the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the information
relating to the Company, the Guarantors and the other Subsidiaries of the Company on a standalone basis. 
 Section 4.04 Compliance
Certificate. 
 (a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Paying Agent, within 90 days after the end of each

financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 4.03 above shall be accompanied by a written statement of the Company’s independent public accountants (who shall be a firm of established national reputation) that in making the
examination necessary for certification of such financial statements, nothing has come to their attention that would lead them to believe that the Company has violated any provisions of Article 4 or Article 5 hereof or, if any such violation has
occurred, specifying the nature and period of existence thereof, it being understood that such accountants shall not be liable directly or indirectly to any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation. 

(c) So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company will deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Paying Agent, forthwith upon any
Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default that remains uncured for five (5) days and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect
thereto. 
 Section 4.05 Taxes. 

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

Section 4.06 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. 

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

 Section 4.07 Restricted Payments. 

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

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

the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of
additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) hereof; and 
 (3)
such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries since the Closing Date (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3) and (4) of
paragraph (b) of this Section 4.07), is less than the sum, without duplication of: 
 (A) 50% of the Consolidated
Net Income of the Company for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the fiscal quarter in which the 

  
 47 








 
Closing Date occurs to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such
Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit); plus 
 (B) 100% of the aggregate net cash
proceeds received by the Company since the Closing Date as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Qualifying Equity Interests of the Company or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified
Stock of the Company or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Company, in each case that have been converted into or exchanged for Qualifying Equity Interests of the Company (other than Qualifying Equity Interests and convertible or
exchangeable Disqualified Stock or debt securities sold to a Subsidiary of the Company); plus 
 (C) to the extent that any
Restricted Investment that was made after the Closing Date is (a) sold for cash or otherwise cancelled, liquidated or repaid for cash, or (b) made in an entity that subsequently becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, the initial
amount of such Restricted Investment (or, if less, the amount of cash received upon repayment or sale); plus 
 (D) to the
extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company designated as such after the Closing Date is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the date hereof, the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Company’s Investment in such
Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation or (ii) such Fair Market Value as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the date hereof; plus 

(E) 50% of any dividends received in cash by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is a Guarantor after
the Closing Date from an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company, to the extent that such dividends were not otherwise included in the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for such period; plus 

(F) $50.0 million ($45.0 million of which will be for the purposes of making Restricted Investments only). 

(b) The provisions of Section 4.07(a) hereof will not prohibit: 

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

(2) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of or with the net cash proceeds of the substantially
concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the substantially concurrent contribution of common equity capital to the Company; provided that the amount of
any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such Restricted Payment will not be considered to be net proceeds of Qualifying Equity Interests for purposes of clause (3)(B) of the preceding paragraph and will not be considered to be net
cash proceeds from an Equity Offering for purposes of Section 3.07 of this Indenture; 

  
 48 








 (3) the payment of any dividend (or, in the case of any partnership or limited
liability company, any similar distribution) by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; 

(4) the repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of Indebtedness of the Company or any
Guarantor that is contractually subordinated to the Notes or to any Note Guarantee with the net cash proceeds from a substantially concurrent incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; 

(5) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition
or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company held by any current or former officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to any equity
subscription agreement, stock option agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar agreement; provided, that the aggregate amounts paid under this clause (5) do not exceed $7.5 million in any fiscal year; provided, further, that the amount
paid for such repurchase, retirement or other acquisition in any twelve-month period may be increased by an amount not to exceed: 

(a) the cash proceeds from the sale of Qualifying Equity Interests of the Company and, to the extent contributed to the Company
as common equity capital, the cash proceeds from the sale of Qualifying Equity Interests of any of the Company’s direct or indirect parent companies, in each case to members of management, directors or consultants of the Company, any of its
Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent companies that occurs after the date hereof to the extent the cash proceeds from the sale of Qualifying Equity Interests have not otherwise been applied to the making of Restricted Payments
pursuant to clause (3) of the preceding paragraph or clause (2) of this paragraph or to an optional redemption of Notes pursuant to Section 3.07; plus 

(b) the cash proceeds of key man life insurance policies received by the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries after the date
hereof; and 
 in addition, cancellation of Indebtedness owing to the Company from any current or former officer, director or employee (or
any permitted transferees thereof) of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or any direct or indirect parent company thereof), in connection with a repurchase of Equity Interests of the Company from such Persons will not be deemed to
constitute a Restricted Payment for purposes of this covenant or any other provisions of this Indenture; 
 (6) the
repurchase of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options or warrants to the extent such Equity Interests represent a portion of the exercise price of those stock options or warrants; 

(7) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the declaration and payment of regularly
scheduled or accrued dividends to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Stock of the Company or any preferred stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company issued on or after the date hereof in accordance with the Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) or any other Permitted Debt; 
 (8) payments of cash, dividends, distributions,
advances or other Restricted Payments by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to allow the payment of cash in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares upon (a) the exercise of options or warrants or (b) the conversion or
exchange of Capital Stock of any such Person; 

  
 49 








 (9) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount, taken together with all Restricted Payments made pursuant to this clause (9), not to exceed $25.0 million since the Closing Date; and 

(10) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other
acquisition or retirement for value of Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor that is Junior Lien Debt; provided that the aggregate amounts paid under this clause (10) do not exceed (i) $25.0 million in any fiscal year (with unused
amounts in any fiscal year being carried over to the immediately succeeding fiscal year) and (ii) an additional $25.0 million in any fiscal year if after giving pro forma effect to any such Restricted Payment made under this clause (ii), the
Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio for the period for the most recently ended four full consecutive fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of such Restricted Payment would not exceed
5.5 to 1.0. 
 The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment
of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued
by this Section 4.07 will be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company whose resolution with respect thereto will be delivered to the Trustee. The Board of Directors’ determination must be based upon an opinion or appraisal
issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing if the Fair Market Value exceeds $20.0 million. 
 Section 4.08
Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or
with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (except for waiving or deferring in the ordinary course of business subrogation
and reimbursement rights in connection with the guarantee obligations permitted pursuant to Section 4.09); 
 (2) make
loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 
 (3) sell, lease or transfer any of its
properties or assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 (b) The restrictions in Section 4.08(a) hereof will not
apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 
 (1) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and
the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments, restatements, modifications,
renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date hereof; 

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

  
 50 








 (3) agreements governing other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to
Section 4.09 and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that (a) the restrictions are ordinary and customary with respect to the type of
Indebtedness being incurred and (b) such encumbrances or restrictions will not materially affect the Company’s ability to make payments of principal or interest on the Notes, as determined at the time such Indebtedness is incurred in good
faith by the senior management of the Company; 
 (4) applicable law, rule, regulation or order; 

(5) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any
Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be
incurred; 
 (6) customary non-assignment provisions in contracts and licenses entered into in the ordinary course of
business; 
 (7) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Capital Lease
Obligations that impose restrictions on the property purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (3) of Section 4.08(a) hereof; 

(8) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted
Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition; 
 (9) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions
contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 

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

(12) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary
course of business. 
 Section 4.09 Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume,
guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Company may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and the Guarantors may incur Indebtedness (including
Acquired Debt) or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for 

  
 51 








 
the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is
incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional
Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 

(b) The provisions of Section 4.09(a) hereof will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness
(collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 
 (1) The incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
additional Indebtedness and letters of credit under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential
liability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed (I) the sum of (x) $60.0 million and (y) the amount by which $290.0 million exceeds the aggregate principal amount of notes (including any additional
notes) outstanding at the time of such incurrence, less (II) the aggregate amount of all Net Proceeds of Asset Sales applied by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of the indenture to repay any term Indebtedness under
the Credit Agreement, or to repay any revolving credit Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, and effect a corresponding commitment reduction thereunder pursuant to Sections 3.09 and 4.10; 

(2) The incurrence by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness; 

(3) (I) The incurrence by the Company and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes and the related Note
Guarantees to be issued on the Closing Date and (II) up to $15.0 million in aggregate principal amount of additional notes and the related Note Guarantees issued after the Closing Date, less any Permitted Debt incurred under clause (1)(I)(y) of
this Section 4.09(b); 
 (4) The incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness
represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of design, construction, installation or improvement of
property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or
discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed $21.0 million at any time outstanding; 
 (5)
the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than
intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.09(a) hereof or clauses (2), (3), (4) or (5) of this Section 4.09(b); 

(6) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the
Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, that any such Indebtedness shall be to the extent owed by the Company or any Guarantor, unsecured and expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due
with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Company, or the Note Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; provided, that any such intercompany indebtedness incurred under intercompany notes existing on the Closing Date shall be permitted so long as


  
 52 








 
such intercompany notes are so expressly subordinated within 30 days after the Closing Date; provided, further, that if as of any date any Person other than the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries or the lenders or administrative agent under the Credit Agreement owns or holds any such Indebtedness, such date shall be deemed the date of incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
that was not permitted by this clause (6); 
 (7) the issuance by any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the
Company or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that: 
 (A) any subsequent
issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such preferred stock being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; and 

(B) any sale or other transfer of any such preferred stock to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company, 
 will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such preferred stock by such Restricted Subsidiary
that was not permitted by this clause (7); 
 (8) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Hedging Obligations entered into in order to manage existing or anticipated interest rate, exchange rate or commodity price risks and not for speculative purposes; 

(9) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness owing under documentary or standby
letters of credit for the purchase of goods or other merchandise generally; 
 (10) (a) Indebtedness in respect of OECD
accounts receivable financings with recourse against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed $50.0 million at any time outstanding and (b) non-OECD accounts receivable financings with recourse
against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed $50.0 million at any time outstanding; 

(11) The Guarantee by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company to the extent that the guaranteed Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes,
then the Guarantee must be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed; 

(12) The incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of workers’
compensation claims, self-insurance obligations, bankers’ acceptances, performance and surety bonds in the ordinary course of business; 

(13) The incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness owing under overdraft facilities in
connection with cash management arrangements; 
 (14) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
additional Indebtedness in an aggregate amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding not to exceed the sum of (a) 65% of Eligible Inventory, plus (b) 65% of Permitted Advances on Purchases of Tobacco, plus (c) 85%
of Eligible Receivables; 

  
 53 








 (15) Guarantees by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary which are incurred in
the ordinary course of business in an aggregate amount not to exceed $250.0 million in the aggregate at any time outstanding; and 

(16) Guarantees by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary which are incurred in the ordinary course of business for the
purpose of carrying unsold tobacco inventories held against Confirmed Orders and other Guarantees by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary incurred in the ordinary course of business with respect to Uncommitted Inventories in an aggregate amount
not to exceed the amount of such Uncommitted Inventories. 
 The Company will not incur, and will not permit any Guarantor to incur, any
Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes
and the applicable Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company solely by virtue of being
unsecured or by virtue of being secured on junior priority basis. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in
the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (16) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof, the Company
will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09. Indebtedness under the Credit
Agreement outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under this Indenture will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of
Permitted Debt. Indebtedness incurred in respect of (i) Eligible Inventory, (ii) Permitted Advances on Purchase of Tobacco and (iii) Eligible Receivables outstanding on the date on which Notes are first issued and authenticated under
this Indenture will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (14) of the definition of Permitted Debt. The accrual of interest or preferred stock dividends, the accretion or
amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and
the payment of dividends on preferred stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of preferred stock or
Disqualified Stock for purposes of this covenant; provided, in each such case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued. For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be utilized, calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on
the date such Indebtedness was incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed
to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. 
 The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of
any date will be: 
 (1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue
discount; 
 (2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and 

  
 54 








 (3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets
of the specified Person, the lesser of: 
 (A) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and 

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

Section 4.10 Asset Sales. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 

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

(2) at least 75% (100% in the case of lease payments) of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided, however, that in the event of an Asset Sale of any property or assets of the Company that are surplus from the standpoint of the Company as a whole, in the good faith
determination of the Board of Directors of the Company (as evidenced by a resolution of such Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee), at least 60% of the consideration therefor received is in the form
of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 
 (A) any
liabilities, as shown on the Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note
Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies against further liability; 

(B) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee
that are contemporaneously, subject to ordinary settlement periods, converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in that conversion; and 

(C) any stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2) or (4) of the next paragraph of this
Section 4.10; and 
 (3) if such Asset Sale involves the disposition of Notes Priority Collateral or, after the
Discharge of ABL Obligations, the disposition of ABL Priority Collateral, the Net Proceeds thereof shall be paid directly by the purchaser of the Collateral to the Collateral Agent for deposit into the Note Collateral Account pending application in
accordance with the provisions described below, and, if any property other than cash or Cash Equivalents is included in such Net Proceeds, substantially all of such property shall be made subject to the Note Liens and pledged as Collateral under the
Secured Debt Documents. 
 Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale other than a sale of Collateral, the
Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such Net Proceeds: 

  
 55 








 (1) (x) to repay permanently any Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement then
outstanding as required by the terms thereof (and to effect a corresponding permanent reduction in the availability under the Credit Agreement) or (y) to repay, redeem or repurchase Secured Obligations; 

(2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving
effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; 

(3) to make a capital expenditure; or 

(4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted
Business; 
 provided, that the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed to have complied with the provisions described in clauses
(2), (3) or (4) above if and to the extent that, within 365 days after the Asset Sale that generated the Net Proceeds, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement irrevocably
committing the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to an application of funds of the kind described in clauses (2), (3) or (4) above so long as such application of funds is consummated within 545 days of the receipt of such Net Proceeds.

 Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale that constitutes a sale of Collateral, the Company (or the
applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such Net Proceeds: 
 (1) (x) to the extent such Net Proceeds
constitute proceeds from the sale of ABL Priority Collateral, to repay permanently any Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement then outstanding as required by the terms thereof (and to effect a corresponding permanent reduction in the availability
under the Credit Agreement) or (y) to repay, redeem or repurchase Secured Obligations; 
 (2) to acquire all or
substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business (or in the case of an Asset Sale of ABL Priority Collateral, to acquire additional Collateral), if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock,
the Permitted Business is or becomes a Guarantor or is merged into or amalgamated or consolidated with the Company or any Guarantor; provided that to the extent such Net Proceeds are received in respect of Notes Priority Collateral, such Net
Proceeds are applied to acquire assets substantially all of which constitutes Notes Priority Collateral; 
 (3) to make a
capital expenditure to purchase assets that constitute Collateral; provided that to the extent such Net Proceeds are received in respect of Notes Priority Collateral, such expenditures shall relate to Notes Priority Collateral; or 

(4) to acquire other assets that would constitute Collateral that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are
used or useful in a Permitted Business; provided that to the extent such Net Proceeds are received in respect of Notes Priority Collateral, such Net Proceeds are applied to acquire other assets substantially all of which constitutes Notes Priority
Collateral; 
 provided, that the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed to have complied with the provisions described in clauses
(2), (3) or (4) above if and to the extent that, within 365 days after the Asset Sale that generated the Net Proceeds, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary has entered into and not abandoned or rejected a binding agreement irrevocably
committing the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to an application of funds of the kind described in clauses (2), (3) or (4) above so long as such application of funds is consummated within 545 days of the receipt of such Net Proceeds.


  
 56 








 Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary) may
temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 

Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the second and third paragraphs of this Section 4.10
will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million, within five days thereof, the Company will make an Asset Sale Offer to all holders of Notes to purchase, prepay or redeem the maximum
principal amount of Notes (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer
price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive
interest due on the relevant interest payment date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this
Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered into (or required to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes to be purchased will be selected pursuant to the
Applicable Procedures (or if in Definitive Form, on a pro rata basis), based on the amounts tendered or required to be prepaid or redeemed (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of
$2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased). Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 

The Company will determine in good faith whether, and to what extent, an Asset Sale is in respect of Notes Priority Collateral and to what
extent the Net Proceeds in respect of an Asset Sale of Notes Priority Collateral are used to acquire or are invested in Notes Priority Collateral taking into account all relevant factors, including without limitation, the existence of structurally
senior claims against the Notes Priority Collateral and the assets of an entity whose Capital Stock is subject to such Asset Sale or acquired with such Net Proceeds. In the event that ABL Priority Collateral and Notes Priority Collateral are
disposed of in a single transaction or series of transactions in which the aggregate sales price is not allocated between the ABL Priority Collateral, on the one hand, and the Notes Priority Collateral, on the other hand, including in connection
with or as a result of the sale by the Company or Guarantor of the Capital Stock of the Company, Guarantor or Subsidiary thereof that owns assets constituting ABL Priority Collateral or Notes Priority Collateral, then, solely for purposes of this
Indenture, the portion of the aggregate sales price deemed to be proceeds of the ABL Priority Collateral, on the one hand, and the Notes Priority Collateral, on the other hand, shall be allocated to the ABL Priority Collateral or the Notes Priority
Collateral in accordance with their respective Fair Market Values (provided, in any event, the portion thereof allocated to the ABL Priority Collateral shall not be less than the value thereof that such assets contribute to the borrowing base under
the Credit Agreement). 
 The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws
and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the
provisions of Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.10, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 hereof or this
Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.

 On or prior to the date of any Asset Sale, the Company shall establish a U.S. dollar-denominated
account in the United States (the “Note Collateral Account”) into which any Note Trust Monies received by the Company in connection with any Asset Sale shall be deposited until such time as such Note Trust Monies are applied in accordance
with this Section 4.10. 
 Section 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any transaction or series of transactions with any
officer, director, shareholder or Affiliate other than (1) transactions between the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices as of the date hereof, (2) transactions on
terms and conditions substantially as favorable as would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person other than an officer, director, shareholder or Affiliate and (3) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary
course of business not to exceed $5.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding. 
 Section 4.12 Liens. 

The Company will not and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or
become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness, Attributable Debt or trade payables upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired. 

Section 4.13 Business Activities. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage directly or indirectly in any business other than the
businesses engaged in by it and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of the date hereof and reasonable extensions thereof and businesses ancillary or complementary thereto. 

Section 4.14 Corporate Existence. 

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect: 

(1) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with
the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Subsidiary; and 

(2) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that
the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 

  
 58 








 Section 4.15 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. 

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to
repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within ten days
following any Change of Control, the Company will provide a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating: 

(1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered will be
accepted for payment; 
 (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later
than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 
 (3) that any Note not
tendered will continue to accrue interest; 
 (4) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control
Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5) that pursuant to the Applicable Procedures, Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control
Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice
prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (6) that Holders
will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, an email, PDF, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the
name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased; and 

(7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the
unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to
the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change in Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of Sections
3.09 or 4.15 hereof, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.09 hereof or this Section 4.15 by virtue of such compliance. 

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful: 

(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control
Offer; 

  
 59 








 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control
Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered before 10:00 a.m. New York City time; and 
 (3)
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 

The Paying Agent will promptly provide (but in any case not later than five days after the Change of Control Payment Date) to each Holder of
Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail to each Holder a new Definitive Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any (or
in the case of a Global Note, cause to be transferred by book entry). The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer
upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.15 and Section 3.09 hereof and purchases all
Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of
Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made. 
 Section 4.16 Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction; provided that
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if: 
 (1) The Company or that
Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could have (a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction under the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test in Section 4.09(a) hereof and
(b) incurred a Lien to secure such Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.12 hereof; 
 (2) The gross
cash proceeds of that sale and leaseback transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, of the
property that is the subject of that sale and leaseback transaction; 
 (3) The aggregate rent payable by the Company or that
Restricted Subsidiary relating to such sale and leaseback transaction is not in excess of the Fair Market Value of the property leased pursuant to such sale and leaseback transaction; and 

(4) the transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is permitted by, and the Company applies the proceeds of such
transaction in compliance with, Section 4.10 hereof. 
 Section 4.17 Additional Note Guarantees. 

If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates a Material Domestic Restricted Subsidiary after the date hereof, then
that newly acquired or created Material Domestic Restricted Subsidiary will become a Guarantor and (1) execute and deliver a supplemental indenture and 

  
 60 








 
supplemental Security Documents (including title insurance and surveys, if applicable) to the Collateral Agent pursuant to which that Subsidiary will unconditionally guarantee all of the
Company’s Obligations under the Notes, this Indenture and the Security Documents on the terms set forth in this Indenture which will be secured by a Note Lien on terms substantially similar to the other Guarantors, (2) deliver an opinion
of counsel satisfactory to the Trustee that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, such supplemental indenture is enforceable against such Subsidiary and has been duly executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and (3) deliver an
opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Collateral Agent that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, such Security Documents are enforceable against such Subsidiary and have been duly executed and delivered by such Subsidiary, in each
case, within 20 business days of the date on which it was acquired or created. The form of such Note Guarantee is attached as Exhibit E hereto. 

Section 4.18 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not
cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07 hereof or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted
Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of
Directors of the Company may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause a Default. 

Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a
certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 hereof. If,
at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary
will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Company will be in default of such covenant. The
Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any
outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at
the beginning of the applicable reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect
as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Company shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all of the
Company’s assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof.

such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or 

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

there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $40.0 million or more; 
 (6)
failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of its Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, to pay final judgments entered by a court or
courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $40.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; 

(7) the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries

individually or in the aggregate, having a Fair Market Value of not more than $10.0 million ceases to be an enforceable and perfected first-priority Lien; 

(B) any Note Lien purported to be granted under any Security Document on Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Company, any
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable
immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and
payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately. 

  
 64 








 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if
any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a
proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not
impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes rescind an acceleration or waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium or
interest on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its
consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of
this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.05
Control by Majority. 
 Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law
or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 

Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 

A Holder may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if: 

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

(2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue
the remedy; 
 (3) such Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or
expense; 
 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of
security or indemnity; and 
 (5) Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

  
 65 








 A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note
or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

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

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover
judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any
other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by
a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or
arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes
or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.10
Priorities. 
 If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

 First: to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the Registrar, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under
Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses, indemnities and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

  
 66 








 Second: to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if
any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium and interest, respectively; and 

Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date
for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10. 
 Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant
to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 
 ARTICLE 7

 TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Duties of
Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested
in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon Officers’ Certificates, Opinions of Counsel or other certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and materially conforming to the requirements of this Indenture, and the Trustee will be
under no duty to make an investigation or inquiry into any statements contained or matters referred to in such instrument. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements
of this Indenture. 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligence or its own willful misconduct, except
that: 
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;

 (3) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits
to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof.

expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 7.01. 

(e) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. 

(f) The Trustee will not be liable for interest or earnings on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the
Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (g) Every
provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Article 7, and the provisions of Article 7 shall apply to the Collateral Agent, the
Registrar and the Paying Agent. 
 (h) The Trustee will have no duty or obligation to monitor the Company’s compliance with the terms
of this Indenture or to ascertain or inquire as to the observance or performance of any covenants, conditions or agreements of the Company except as set forth in this Indenture. 

Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. 

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting,
it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee
may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will constitute full and complete authorization of the Trustee to take, suffer or omit to take any action in good faith in reliance thereon without liability.

 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent
appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be
authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
 (e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this
Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company will be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 
 (f) The
Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered the Trustee an indemnity or security reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 

(g) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.03 is for information purposes only, and the
Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing will not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants under this
Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate).

 Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any
Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any “conflicting interest” (within the meaning of TIA § 310(b)) it must eliminate such conflict within
90 days or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof. 

Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee will not be (a) responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes,
(b) accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, (c) responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, (d) responsible for any calculations or notices to be made under this Indenture by the Company; or (e) responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or
any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 

Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee will send to Holders of
Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if it is not so known to the Trustee at such time, promptly after it becomes known to a Responsible Officer, unless such Default or Event of Default has been waived
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee will be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the trust
committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders. 

The Trustee will not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of such
Default or Event of Default from the Company or a Holder is received by a Responsible Officer, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 

Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 

Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date hereof, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding,
the Trustee will mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date,
no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee will also transmit by Applicable Procedures all reports as required by TIA § 313(c). 

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 

(a) The Company will pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder.
The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by
it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

(b) The Company and the Guarantors will indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities or expenses incurred by
it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance 

  
 69 








 
or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and
defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such
loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company will not relieve the
Company or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Company or such Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable fees
and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 

(c) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (d) To secure the Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this
Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture. 
 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(7) or (8) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code. 

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 

(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor
Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be
discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in
writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 
 (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 

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

(4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor
Trustee appointed by the Company. 
 (d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is
removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

  
 70 








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

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

Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

 There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States
of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0
million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition or is a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a bank holding company having a combined capital and surplus of $50.0 million as set forth in its most recent
published statement of condition. 
 This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1),
(2) and (5) and at all times the Trustee will have a combined capital and surplus in excess of the amount required by TIA § 310(a)(2). The Trustee is subject to TIA § 310(b). 

Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

The Trustee is subject to TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 
 Section 7.12 Consequential Damages. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, in no event will the Trustee, Collateral Agent, Paying Agent or
Registrar (in each case in its capacity as such) be liable under this Indenture for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including loss of profit), even if the Trustee has been advised as to the
likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 ARTICLE 8 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

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

Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and each of
the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the
outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and
(2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same),
except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (1) the rights
of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium on, such Notes when such payments are due; 

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

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and Agents hereunder and the Company’s and the
Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and 
 (4) this Article 8. 

Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise
of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
 Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and each of
the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 3.09, 4.07 through 4.13, 4.15 through 4.18 hereof and
clause (4) of Section 5.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter
be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding”
for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Company
and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or
by reason of any reference 

  
 72 








 
in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but,
except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through 6.01(6) and 6.01(9) through 6.01(10) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

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

(1) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars,
non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm, or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of,
premium and interest on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a
particular redemption date; 
 (2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company must deliver to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that: 
 (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or 
 (B) since the Closing Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal income
tax law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding
Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company must
deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income
tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

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

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under,
any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced) to which the Company or any of its Guarantors is a party or by which the Company or any of
the Guarantors is bound; 

  
 73 








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

(7) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and
Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and
non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in
respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by law. 
 The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the
cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the
outstanding Notes. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time
to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06 Repayment to Company. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from
such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee
thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street
Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
will be repaid to the Company. 
 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with
Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or 

  
 74 








 
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture
and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance
with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent. 

ARTICLE 9 
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT
AND WAIVER 
 Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 hereof, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the Registrar
may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees without the consent of any Holder of Notes: 
 (1)
to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; 
 (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of
certificated Notes; 
 (3) to provide for the assumption or Guarantee of the Company’s or a Guarantor’s obligations
to the Holders of the Notes and Note Guarantees by a successor to the Company or such Guarantor pursuant to Article 5 or Article 11 hereof; 

(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not
adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder; 
 (5) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect
or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 
 (6) to conform the text hereof, the Security Documents, the
Note Guarantees or the Notes to the terms thereof contained in the “Description of Notes” section of the Final Offering Memorandum, when authorized by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company and upon a request to the Trustee
set forth in an Officers’ Certificate to that effect; 
 (7) to provide for the issuance of additional notes in
accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof; 
 (8) to allow any Guarantor to execute a
supplemental indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes; 
 (9) to make, complete or confirm any grant of
Collateral permitted or required by this Indenture or any of the Security Documents or any release of Collateral that becomes effective as set forth in this Indenture or any of the Security Documents; or 

(10) to enter into additional or supplemental Security Documents and to add any Secured Obligation to the Security Documents
and the Senior Lien Intercreditor Agreement on the terms set forth herein. 
 Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of
its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Sections 7.02 and 9.05 hereof, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the
Registrar will join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of 

  
 75 








 
any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the
Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the Registrar will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the Registrar may
amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof) or the Notes or the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any
existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or
compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single
class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for
purposes of this Section 9.02. 
 It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve
the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment,
supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 
 (1)
reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the
principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (except as provided above with respect to Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof); 

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note; 

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes (except a
rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 

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

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

  
 76 








 (7) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment
required by Sections 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15 hereof); 
 (8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note
Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
 (9) make any change in the
preceding amendment and waiver provisions. 
 In addition, any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of this Indenture or any Security
Document that has the effect of releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens securing the Notes will require the consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any
consideration to or for the benefit of any holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to
all holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 

Section 9.03 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

A consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent
Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the
consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date that the supplemental indenture setting forth the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective
under a supplemental indenture in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture and thereafter binds every Holder. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.03 becomes effective, the Company will mail to the
Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such
supplemental indenture. 
 Section 9.04 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in
exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

 Section 9.05 Trustee, Collateral Agent, Paying Agent and Registrar to Sign Amendments, etc. 

Upon the request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the
Holders of Notes as aforesaid, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the Registrar shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of a supplemental indenture setting forth such amendment, supplement or waiver
unless such supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s or such Agent’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Paying Agent and the Registrar may

 Section 10.03 Collateral Agent. 

(a) The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. is hereby appointed Collateral Agent. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Note
Documents, each Holder, by acceptance of its Note(s) agrees that (1) the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver the Note Documents and act in accordance with the terms thereof, (2) the Collateral Agent may, upon the instruction, or
with the consent, of the Trustee or the Holders, take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to (i) enforce any of the terms of the Note Documents and (ii) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the
Obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereunder and under the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Note Documents and (3) to the extent permitted by this Indenture, the Collateral Agent shall have power to institute and to maintain such
suits and proceedings upon the instruction of the Trustee to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any act that may be unlawful or in violation of the Note Collateral Documents or this Indenture, and suits and proceedings upon the instruction
of the Trustee to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Trustee and the Holders in the Collateral (including the power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any
legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest thereunder or be prejudicial to
the interests of the Collateral Agent, the Holders or the Trustee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without limiting Section 7.01(g), the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to take any such action without the direction of the Holders and
may, at the expense of the Issuer, request the direction of the Holders with respect to any such actions and upon receipt of the written consent of the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Notes, shall take such actions; provided that all actions so taken shall, at all times, be in conformity with the requirements of each Intercreditor Agreement. 

(b) Subject to the Note Documents, the Trustee shall direct the Collateral Agent from time to time. Subject to the Note Documents, except as
directed by the Trustee as required or permitted by this Indenture, the Holders acknowledge that the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated: 

(1) to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it by any other Person; 

(2) to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce the Liens securing any Secured Obligations; or 

(3) to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the Secured Obligations, the Note Documents or the
Collateral. 
 (c) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee under this Indenture, including,
without limitation, its right to be indemnified and compensated and all other rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits set forth in Article 7, are extended to the Collateral Agent, and its agents and attorneys, and shall be
enforceable by, the Collateral Agent, as if fully set forth in this Section 10.03 with respect to the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent will not be required to advance or expend any funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers or rights hereunder unless it has been provided with security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any and all liability or expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking
or continuing to take such action. 
 (d) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of Collateral in its possession, the
Collateral Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or


  
 79 








 
any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Agent will not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public
office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any Liens on the Collateral. The Collateral Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the
Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords property held by it as a collateral agent or any similar arrangement, and the Collateral Agent will not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of
any of the Collateral by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith. 

(e) The Collateral Agent will not be responsible for the existence, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any of the Collateral or for the
creation, validity, perfection, priority, protection or enforceability of the Liens on any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action
or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent hereby disclaims any representation or warranty to any party, including the present and future Holders concerning the creation,
validity, perfection, priority, protection or enforceability of the Liens granted hereunder or in the value of any of the Collateral. 
 (f)
The Collateral Agent shall not be required to acquire title to an asset for any reason and shall not be required to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another. The Collateral Agent is not a fiduciary and shall not be
deemed to have assumed any fiduciary obligation. Without limiting the foregoing, if the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion believes that any obligation to take or omit to take any action may cause the Collateral Agent to be considered an
“owner or operator” under any environmental laws or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent to incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state or local law, the Collateral Agent reserves
the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as Collateral Agent or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court appointed receiver. The Collateral Agent will not be liable to any Person for any
environmental liability or any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of the Collateral Agent’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or
relating to any kind of discharge or release or threatened discharge or release of any hazardous materials into the environment.

powers thereunder.

benefit of the Holders of Notes any funds collected or distributed to the Trustee under the Note Documents to which the Trustee is a party and, subject to the terms of the Note Documents, to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders of
Notes according to the provisions of this Indenture. 

  
 80 








 (c) Subject to the Note Documents, the Trustee, at the direction of the requisite percentage of
Holders in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes for any action, shall direct, on behalf of the Holders, the Collateral Agent to take all actions necessary or appropriate in order to: 

(1) foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any or all of the Liens securing the Senior Lien Obligations; 

(2) enforce any of the terms of the Note Documents to which the Collateral Agent or Trustee is a party; or 

(3) collect and receive payment of any and all Obligations. 

(d) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreements and at the Company’s sole cost and expense and subject to the Trustee and the Collateral
Agent having been indemnified by the Holders and/or the Issuer, the Trustee is authorized and empowered (but is not obligated) to institute and maintain, or direct the Collateral Agent to institute and maintain, such suits and proceedings as may be
reasonably expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders of Notes in the Collateral, including the power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any
legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest hereunder or be prejudicial to
the interests of Holders or the Trustee. 
 Section 10.05 Release of Liens in Respect of Notes. 

(a) The Collateral Agent’s other Liens upon the Collateral will no longer secure the Notes outstanding under this Indenture or any other
Obligations under this Indenture, and the right of the Holders of the Notes and holders of such other Obligations to the benefits and proceeds of the Collateral Agent’s Liens on the Collateral will terminate and be discharged: 

(1) in whole or in part, as ordered pursuant to applicable law under a final and non-appealable order or judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction:

(A) satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 12 hereof; 

(B) a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of the Notes in accordance with Article 8 hereof; 

(C) payment in full and discharge of all Notes outstanding under this Indenture and all Secured Obligations that are
outstanding, due and payable under this Indenture at the time the Notes are paid in full and discharged; 
 (3) in part, as
to any property that (a) is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Company or any Guarantor (other than to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary) in a transaction not prohibited by this Indenture at the time of such sale, transfer
or disposition or (b) is owned or at any time acquired by a Guarantor that has been released from its Guarantee pursuant to Section 11.05, concurrently with the release of such Guarantees; 

(4) in whole or in part, with the consent of the Holders of the requisite percentage of Notes in accordance with Article 9

Intercreditor Agreement. 

  
 81 








 (b) Upon the request of the Company pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of
Counsel delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent certifying that all conditions precedent thereto hereunder have been met, the Collateral Agent shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Company, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Company or any Guarantor such instruments of release or disclaimer in the form provided by the Company (to the extent reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent), and shall take such other action as the Company or such Guarantor may reasonably
request and as necessary to effect such release. 
 (c) The release of any Collateral from the terms of this Indenture will not be deemed to
impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to the terms of this Section 10.05 and the Security Documents. 

(d) On or before October 14th in each calendar year, commencing in 2017, the Company
shall furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent an Opinion of Counsel relating to the security interest granted by the Company to the Collateral Agent in compliance with TIA § 314(b)(2) as if this Indenture were required to comply with
such provision. 
 Section 10.06 Relative Rights. 

Nothing in the Secured Debt Documents will: 

(a) impair, as between the Company and the Holders of the Notes, the obligation of the Company to pay principal of, premium, accrued and
unpaid interest, on the Notes in accordance with their terms or any other obligation of the Company or any Guarantor; 
 (b) affect the
relative rights of Holders of Notes as against any other creditors of the Company or any Guarantor (other than holders of other Note Liens or Liens permitted by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Liens); 

(c) restrict the right of any Holder of Notes to sue for payments that are then due and owing (but not enforce any judgment in respect thereof
against any Collateral to the extent specifically prohibited by Section 3.1 of the Senior Lien Intercreditor Agreement);

Section 10.07 Further Assurances; Liens on Additional Property. 

(a) The Company and each of the Guarantors shall do or cause to be done all acts and things that may be required, or that the Collateral Agent
from time to time may reasonably request, to assure and confirm that the Collateral Agent holds, for the benefit of the holders of Secured Obligations, duly created and enforceable and perfected Liens upon the Collateral (including any property or
assets that are acquired or otherwise become, or are required by any Secured Debt Document to become, Collateral after the Notes are issued), in each case, as contemplated by, and with the Lien priority required under, the Secured Debt Documents.

 Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that any Lien on the Collateral cannot be perfected on or prior to the date hereof after
the use of all commercially reasonable efforts, the Company and each of the Guarantors will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all 

  
 82 








 
acts and things that may be required, including obtaining any required consents from third parties, to have all security interests in the Collateral duly created and enforceable and perfected, to
the extent required by the Security Documents, and obtain title insurance promptly following the date hereof, but in no event later than 90 days thereafter.

promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver such Security Documents, instruments, certificates, notices and other documents, and take such other actions as shall be reasonably required, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, to create,
perfect, protect, assure or enforce the Liens and benefits intended to be conferred, in each case as contemplated by the Secured Debt Documents for the benefit of the holders of Secured Obligations; provided, that no such Security Document,
instrument or other document shall be materially more burdensome upon the Company and the Guarantors than the Secured Debt Documents executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantors in connection with the issuance of the Notes on or about
the Issue Date.

of such request, use their commercially reasonable efforts (i) to correct any material defect or error that may be discovered in the execution, acknowledgment, filing or recordation of any document or instrument relating to any Collateral, and
(ii) do, execute, acknowledge, deliver, record, re-record, file, re-file, register and re-register any and all such further acts, deeds, certificates, assurances and other instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require from time to
time in order to carry out more effectively the purposes of the Security Documents. 
 ARTICLE 11 

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

(2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and
severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability
of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce
the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing


  
 83 








 
of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and
covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 

(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and
effect. 
 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any
obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of
the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the
purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee. 

Section 11.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note
Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable
to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such
maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other
Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 11, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 11.03 Execution and Delivery of Note Guarantee. 

To evidence its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Note Guarantee
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto will be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that this Indenture will be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by one of its
Officers. 
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 11.01 hereof will remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on this
Indenture or on the Note Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Note Guarantee is endorsed, the Note Guarantee will be valid nevertheless. 

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set
forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 

  
 84 








 In the event that the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries creates or acquires any
Material Domestic Restricted Subsidiary after the date hereof, if required by Section 4.17 hereof, the Company will cause such Material Domestic Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.17 hereof and this Article
11, to the extent applicable. 
 Section 11.04 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.05 hereof, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its
assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless: 

(1) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 

(2) either: 

(a) subject to Section 11.05 hereof, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person
formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger unconditionally assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture, its Note Guarantee, and the Security Documents on the terms set forth herein or therein, pursuant to a
supplemental indenture and appropriate Security Documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or 

(b) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of this
Indenture, including without limitation, Section 4.10 hereof. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon
the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture pursuant to Article 9, of the Note Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by
the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Note Guarantees to
be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this
Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding clauses 2(a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in
any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or will prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the
Company or another Guarantor. 
 Section 11.05 Releases. 

(a) In connection with (i) any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of any Guarantor (including by way of
merger or consolidation), or (ii) a sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of any Guarantor where the Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, in each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect
to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, then the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released; provided that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor shall not be automatically
and unconditionally released if such sale or disposition violates Section 3.09 or Section 4.10 of this Indenture. Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
such sale or other disposition was made by the Company in a 

  
 85 








 
manner that does not violate Section 3.09 or 4.10 of this Indenture, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its
obligations under its Note Guarantee. 
 (b) Upon designation of any Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of
this Indenture, such Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee. 

(c) Upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 8 hereof or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in
accordance with Article 12 hereof, each Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and relieved of any obligations under its Note Guarantee. 

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

ARTICLE 12 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
 Section 12.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: 

(1) either: 

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

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

(2) in respect of clause (1)(b), no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit
(other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and any similar deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings) and the deposit
will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound (other than with respect to the borrowing of funds to
be applied concurrently to make the deposit required to effect such satisfaction and discharge and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and in each case the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings); 

(3) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 

  
 86 








 (4) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this
Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the
Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause
(b) of clause (1) of this Section 12.01, the provisions of Sections 12.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 12.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by
their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 12.02 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.01 hereof shall be
held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to
the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.01 hereof by
reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this
Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.01 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Notes because of
the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent.

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

(1) Interest. Alliance One International, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on
the principal amount of this Note at 8.500% per annum from October 14, 2016 until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day,
on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that
if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding
Interest Payment Date; provided further that the first Interest Payment Date shall be April 15, 2017. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) on overdue principal and premium,
if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) on overdue
installments of interest from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

(2) Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the
close of business on the April 1 and October 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the
Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the
option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to
principal of and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United
States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 (3) Paying Agent and
Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any
such capacity. 
 (4) Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of October 14, 2016 (the
“Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture), the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Registrar and Paying Agent. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all
such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.
The Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company limited to $275.0 million in aggregate principal amount. The Notes are secured by a first lien pledge of Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents referred to in the Indenture. 

  
 A-2 








 (5) Optional Redemption. 

(a) Except as set forth in subparagraph (b) and (c) of this Paragraph 5, the Company will not have the option to
redeem the Notes prior October 15, 2018. On or after October 15, 2018, the Company will have the option on one or more occasions to redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the
redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on October 15 of
the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date: 
  

					
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
	 2018
	  	 	104.250	% 
	 2019
	  	 	102.125	% 
	 2020 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes
or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of
subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to October 15, 2018, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to
108.500% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest
payment date), with the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering by the Company; provided that: at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries)
remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to October 15, 2018,
the Company may on one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of,
and accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. 

(6) Mandatory Redemption. 

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

(7) Repurchase at the Option of Holder. 

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, the Company will be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to
each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to 

  
 A-3 








 
receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 10 days following any Change of Control, the Company will provide a notice to each
Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 
 (b) If the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company consummates any Asset Sales, within five days of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $20.0 million, the Company will commence an offer to all Holders of Notes (an “Asset
Sale Offer”) pursuant to Sections 3.09 and 4.10 of the Indenture to purchase, prepay or redeem the maximum principal amount of Notes plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums
incurred in connection therewith that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of
purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that
the aggregate amount of Notes tendered into (or required to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may use such deficiency for any purpose not
otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered into (or required to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the
Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis, based on the amounts tendered or required to be prepaid or redeemed (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple
of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased). Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by
completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes. 
 (8) Notice of
Redemption. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 of the Indenture, notice of redemption will be given at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered
address, except that redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger
than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. 

(9) Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 or an
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate
endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for
redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period
between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
 (10) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a
Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

  
 A-4 








 (11) Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the
Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class, and any
existing Default or Event or Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated
Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption or Guarantee of the Company’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of the Notes and Note Guarantees in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any
change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or
maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, to conform the text of the Indenture, the Security Documents, the Note Guarantees or the Notes to the terms thereof contained in the “Description of Notes” section of the Final
Offering Memorandum, when authorized by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company and upon a request to the Trustee set forth in an Officers’ Certificate to that effect; to provide for the issuance of additional notes in accordance
with the limitations set forth in the Indenture as of the date hereof; to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture to the Indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes; to make, complete or confirm any grant of
Collateral permitted or required by the Indenture or any of the Security Documents or any release of Collateral that becomes effective as set forth in the Indenture or any of the Security Documents; or to enter into additional or supplemental
Security Documents and to add any Secured Obligation to the Security Documents and the Senior Lien Intercreditor Agreement on the terms set forth in the Indenture. 

(12) Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the
Notes; (ii) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes; (iii) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with Sections
4.10, 4.15 or 5.01 of the Indenture; (iv) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in the Indenture; (v) default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Company which default is a payment default with respect to the
principal of such Indebtedness or results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity; (vi) certain final judgments for the payment of money that remain undischarged for a period of 60 days; (vii) certain events
of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,
(viii) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Note Guarantee is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor or any Person acting on its behalf denies
or disaffirms its obligations under such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee and (ix) the occurrence of any of the following: (A) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Security Document ceases for any reason to be fully enforceable;
provided that it will not be an Event of Default under this clause (A) if the sole result of the failure of one or more Security Documents to be fully enforceable is that any Note Lien purported to be granted under such Security Documents on
Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a Fair Market Value of not more than $10.0 million ceases to be an enforceable and perfected first-priority Lien; (B) any Note Lien purported to be granted under any Security Document on
Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having 

  
 A-5 








 
a Fair Market Value in excess of $10.0 million ceases to be an enforceable and perfected first-priority Lien; or (C) the Company or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any of
them, denies or disaffirms, in writing, any obligation of the Company or any Guarantor set forth in or arising under any Security Document. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding
Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event
of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or premium) if and so long as the trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the
Holders. The Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default
or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee
annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default that remains uncured
for five (5) days. 
 (13) Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make
loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 

(14) No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any of the
Guarantors, as such, will not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Note Documents, the Note Guarantees, the Security Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations
or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 

(15) Authentication. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an
authenticating agent. 
 (16) Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such
as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

(17) CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures,
the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes
or as contained in any notice of redemption, and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

  
 A-6

 EXHIBIT F 

[FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS] 

Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of
            , 20    , among                     (the
“Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of                     (or its permitted successor), a Virginia corporation (the
“Company”), the Company, the other Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to herein) and                     , as trustee under
the Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H 

WHEREAS, the Company and certain Guarantors have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent an indenture (the
“Indenture”), dated as of October 14, 2016, providing for the issuance of 8.500% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”); 

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee and the
Collateral Agent a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the
“Note Guarantee”); and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent are
authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 

1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 

2. Agreement to Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to provide an unconditional Guarantee on the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in the Note Guarantee and in the Indenture including but not limited to Article 11 thereof. 
 3. No Recourse Against
Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes,
any Note Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The
waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. 

4. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WITHOUT
GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.
