a division or an operating unit of a business, as applicable, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Consolidated

Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or discontinued
operation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

 ARTICLE 2 

THE SECURITIES 
 SECTION
2.01. Amount of Securities. 
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.01, the aggregate
principal amount of Securities that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is limited to $120,000,000. 

(b) On the Issue Date, the Issuer shall issue and deliver, in accordance with this Article 2, Original Securities in an
aggregate principal amount of $84,000,000. 
 (c) As long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if the
Additional Securities Triggering Event occurs, then the Issuer shall issue and deliver (subject to receiving agreed-upon consideration therefor), in accordance with this Section 2.01(c), within 10 Business Days of the Additional Securities
Triggering Event, upon five Business Days’ written notice to the Trustee (which five Business Day period may, for the avoidance of doubt, be concurrent with such 10 Business Day period), accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate certifying
as to the occurrence of and date of the Additional Securities Triggering Event (but, in any case, not during the period between the day immediately after the relevant Record Date immediately preceding the next related Payment Date and such Payment
Date, unless the entire such 10 Business Day period following the Additional Securities Triggering Event is within such period, in which case, on the Business Day immediately following such Payment Date) and subject to the substantially concurrent
receipt of payment therefor, additional Securities in an aggregate principal amount of $36,000,000 (“Additional Securities”). Such Additional Securities shall have the same terms as the Original Securities, except that the issuance price,
the issuance date and the initial Payment Date may vary. If the Issuer determines that any such Additional Securities are issued as part of a “qualified reopening” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Securities will have
the same CUSIP number as the Original Securities and for U.S. federal income tax purposes will have the same issue date and issue price as the Original Securities. If the Issuer determines that any such Additional Securities are not issued as part
of a “qualified reopening” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Securities will be required to have a CUSIP number that is different than the CUSIP number of the Original Securities. 

(d) The Securities, including any Additional Securities, shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this
Indenture, including directions provided to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.05, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase, and shall rank on a parity basis in right of payment and security. 

SECTION 2.02. Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Securities are set forth in Appendix A hereto, which is hereby incorporated
in and expressly made a part of this 

  
 41 








 
Indenture. The Securities and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a
part of this Indenture. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or
endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuer). Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form, without interest coupons, and in minimum denominations of $50,000 and any
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 SECTION 2.03. Execution and Authentication. The Trustee shall authenticate and make
available for delivery upon a written order of the Issuer signed by one Officer (a) Original Securities for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount of $84,000,000 and (b) subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
Section 2.01(c), Additional Securities for original issue after the Additional Securities Triggering Event in an aggregate principal amount of $36,000,000. Such order shall specify the amount of the Securities to be authenticated, the form in which
the Securities are to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated. 
 One Officer shall
sign the Securities for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that
office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless. 
 A Security shall not be valid until
an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. 

The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities. Any such
appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities 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 any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands. 

SECTION 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent. 

(a) The Issuer shall maintain (i) an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for
exchange (the “Registrar”) and (ii) an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may
have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The term “Paying Agent” includes the Paying Agent and any additional paying agents. The Issuer initially
appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and the Securities Custodian with respect to the Global Securities and as Registrar and Paying Agent with respect to the Definitive Securities. 

  
 42 








 (b) The Issuer may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar
or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a
Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.06. The Issuer or any of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. Upon
any Event of Default as described in Section 6.01(e) or Section 6.01(f), the Trustee shall automatically be the Paying Agent. 

(c) The Issuer may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the
Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) if applicable, acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer and such successor Registrar or
Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The Registrar or
Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Paying Agent or Registrar only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.07.

 SECTION 2.05. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. On or prior to each due date of the principal of and interest on any Security,
the Issuer shall deposit with each Paying Agent (or if the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal
and interest when so becoming due. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that a Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by a Paying Agent for the
payment of principal of and interest on the Securities, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer 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. If the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto. The Issuer at any time
may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.05, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the
Trustee. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee will automatically serve as the Paying Agent if not otherwise so acting. 

SECTION 2.06. Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available
to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each 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 Holders. The Issuer shall also maintain a copy of such list of the names and addresses of Holders at its
registered office. 

  
 43 








 SECTION 2.07. Transfer and Exchange. The Securities shall be issued in registered form and
shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Security for registration of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A. When a Security is presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the
transfer as requested if its requirements therefor are met. When Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as
requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge will be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of the Securities, but the Issuer may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes (including transfer taxes), assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or
exchange pursuant to this Section 2.07. Upon any transfer or exchange, the Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents. The Issuer shall not be required to make, and
the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of Securities to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or of any Securities for a period of 15 days prior to a
selection of Securities to be redeemed. 
 Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Security, the Issuer, the
Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest, if any, on
such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Issuer, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial
interests in such Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent) or (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Security, and that ownership of a
beneficial interest in such Global Security shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. 
 All Securities issued upon any transfer or
exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. 

SECTION 2.08. Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims
that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial
Code are met, such that the Holder (a) satisfies the Issuer or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such
notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuer or the Trustee prior to the Security being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected
purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuer and the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee to protect the
Trustee, the Paying 

  
 44 








 
Agent and the Registrar (if the Registrar also serves as the Paying Agent) and of the Issuer to protect the Issuer, each Guarantor, the Paying Agent and the Registrar (if the Trustee is not
serving in the role of Paying Agent or Registrar, as the case may be) from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security (including
attorneys’ fees and disbursements in replacing such Security). In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Security
instead of issuing a new Security in replacement thereof. 
 Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will
be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder. 
 The
provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Securities. 

SECTION 2.09. Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for
those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.09 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 12.04, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds
the Security. 
 If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Security surrendered for replacement), it ceases
to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser. A mutilated Security ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Security and replacement thereof
pursuant to Section 2.08. 
 If a Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or
maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and no Paying Agent is prohibited from paying such money to
the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 

SECTION 2.10. Temporary Securities. In the event that Definitive Securities are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until
such Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the
Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities and make them available for delivery in exchange for temporary Securities upon
surrender of such temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Issuer, without charge to the Holder. Until such exchange, temporary Securities shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as Definitive Securities under this
Indenture. 

  
 45 








 SECTION 2.11. Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee
for cancellation. The Registrar and each Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Securities surrendered for
registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Securities in accordance with its customary procedures. Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Securities shall be delivered to the Issuer. The
Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Trustee shall not authenticate Securities in place of canceled Securities other than pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture. 
 SECTION 2.12. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities, the Issuer shall
pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Securities (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record
date. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date and shall promptly provide or cause to be provided to each affected Holder a written notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the
amount of defaulted interest to be paid. The special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest shall not be more than 15 days and shall not be less than 10 days prior to the proposed payment date and shall not be less than 10 days after
the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. 
 SECTION 2.13. CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc. The Issuer in
issuing the Securities may use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices (including notices of
redemption) as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers, either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice that
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities and that any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall advise the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP
numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers. 
 SECTION 2.14. Calculation of Principal Amount of Securities. The aggregate
principal amount of the Securities, at any date of determination, shall be the principal amount of the Securities at such date of determination. With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a
specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Securities, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Securities, the Holders of
which have so consented, waived, approved or taken other action by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of the Securities then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence,
Section 2.09 and Section 12.04. Any such calculation made pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be made by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate. The Issuer and the Trustee agree that any action of the
Holders may be evidenced by the DTC applicable procedures or by such other procedures as the Issuer and Trustee may agree. 
 SECTION 2.15.
Statement to Holders. After the end of each calendar year but not later than the latest date permitted by applicable law, the Trustee shall furnish to each Person 

  
 46 








 
who at any time during such calendar year was a Holder a statement (for example, a Form 1099 or any other means required by applicable law) prepared by the Trustee as may be required pursuant to
the then-applicable regulations under the Code. 
 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION 
 SECTION 3.01.
Redemption. The Securities may be redeemed by the Issuer at its option, in whole, or from time to time in part, on any Business Day specified by the Issuer, subject to the conditions and at the redemption prices set forth in Paragraph 5 of
the form of Security set forth in Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The Securities may also be redeemed by the Issuer
in whole, subject to the conditions and at the redemption prices set forth in Sections 3.09 and 4.08(k), together with accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. 

SECTION 3.02. Applicability of Article. Redemption of Securities at the election of the Issuer or otherwise, as permitted or required
by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article 3. 
 SECTION 3.03. Notices to
Trustee. If the Issuer elects to redeem Securities pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Paragraph 5 of the Security, it shall notify the Trustee and the Holders in writing of (i) the Section of this Indenture and the Paragraph of
the Security (if any) pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date, (iii) the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price. 

The Issuer shall provide written notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.03 at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a
redemption date if the redemption is pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Security. Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate from the Issuer to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions herein. If fewer than
all the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Issuer and given to the Trustee, which record date shall be not fewer than 15 days after the date of notice to the Trustee. Any such notice
may be canceled at any time prior to written notice of such redemption being provided to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect. 

SECTION 3.04. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed. In the case of any partial redemption, and if the Securities are Global
Securities held by the Depository, the Depository will select the Securities to be redeemed in accordance with its operational arrangements. If the Securities are not Global Securities held by the Depository, selection of the Securities for
redemption will be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or such other method the Trustee deems fair and appropriate; provided that no Securities of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. The Trustee shall make
the selection from outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $1,000. Securities and portions of them the Trustee
selects shall be in amounts of $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in 

  
 47 








 
excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer
promptly of the Securities or portions of Securities to be redeemed. 
 SECTION 3.05. Notice of Optional Redemption. 

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 5 of the Security, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption
date pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Security, the Issuer shall provide or cause to be provided a written notice of redemption to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed. 

Any such notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state: 

(i) the redemption date; 

(ii) the redemption price (or manner of calculation thereof if not then known) and the amount of accrued interest to the
redemption date; 
 (iii) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

(iv) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, plus
accrued interest; 
 (v) that all outstanding Securities are to be redeemed or, if fewer than all the outstanding Securities
are to be redeemed, the certificate numbers and principal amounts of the particular Securities to be redeemed, the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be outstanding after such
partial redemption; 
 (vi) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is
prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 

(vii) the CUSIP number, ISIN or “Common Code” number, if any, printed on the Securities being redeemed; 

(viii) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number or ISIN or “Common Code”
number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities; and 
 (ix) such other matters as the Issuer deems
desirable or appropriate. 
 Notice of any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.05 or Section 3.09 or 4.08(k) may, at the Issuer’s
direction, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the receipt by the Trustee, on or prior to the redemption date, of money sufficient to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the Securities being redeemed.

 (b) At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the
Issuer’s expense. In such event, the Issuer shall provide the Trustee a notice containing the information required by this Section 3.05 at least five Business Days (unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period) prior to the date such notice
is to be provided to Holders and such notice may not be canceled but may be subject to such conditions precedent as shall be set forth in such notice. 

  
 48 








 SECTION 3.06. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once written notice of redemption is
provided in accordance with Section 3.05, 3.09 or 4.08(k), Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions
precedent in the notice of redemption. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but not including, the redemption date; provided,
however, that if the redemption date is after a Record Date and on or prior to the related Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Securities registered on such Record Date. Failure to give
notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder. 
 SECTION 3.07.
Deposit of Redemption Price. With respect to any Securities, prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary is the
Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions of Securities called
for redemption that have been delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for cancellation; provided that the Issuer has provided an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent (if any) to which such redemption has
been made subject pursuant to Section 3.05(b) have been satisfied. On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on Securities or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Issuer has deposited with the Paying Agent
funds sufficient to pay the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest on, the Securities to be redeemed, unless the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, provided that the Issuer has
provided an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent (if any) to which such redemption has been made subject have been satisfied or waived. 

SECTION 3.08. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Issuer’s expense) a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered. 

  
 49 








 SECTION 3.09. Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes. The Issuer may redeem the
Securities, in whole but not in part, at its discretion, on any Business Day specified by the Issuer, upon providing not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Trustee, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the
aggregate principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, and all Additional Amounts or Additional Interest (if any) that otherwise would be payable, if, on the next date
on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Securities, the Issuer would be required to pay Additional Amounts or Additional Interest, and the Issuer cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available to it,
as a result of: 
 (a) any amendment to, or change in, the laws or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder of a
Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction that is officially announced and becomes effective after the Issue Date (or, if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, such later date); or 

(b) any amendment to, or change in, an official interpretation or application regarding such laws, regulations or rulings,
including by virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction that is officially announced and becomes effective after the Issue Date (or, if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, such later date). 
 The Issuer will not give any such notice of redemption earlier than 90
days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts or Additional Interest were a payment in respect of the Securities then due and payable, and, at the time such notice is given, the obligation to
pay Additional Amounts or Additional Interest must remain in effect. 
 Prior to the provision of any written notice of redemption of the
Securities, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Issuer cannot avoid any obligation to pay Additional Amounts or Additional Interest by taking reasonable measures available to it. 

ARTICLE 4 
 COVENANTS

 SECTION 4.01. Payment of Securities. 

(a) The Issuer shall promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in
the Securities and in this Indenture. An installment of principal or interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds as of 12:00 noon New York City time money sufficient to pay all principal
and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the
rate specified therefor in the Securities, and the Issuer shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate borne by the Securities to the extent lawful.

 (b) On each Payment Date, commencing April 15, 2019, or on the succeeding

 In addition, in the event that any Additional Securities are issued after the Issue Date in accordance with
Section 2.01(c), on each Payment Date subsequent thereto, or on the succeeding Business Day if any such date is not a Business Day, the Issuer shall pay an installment of principal of such Additional Securities (subject to adjustment as described in
the following paragraph) in an amount equal to the amount obtained by multiplying the principal amount of such Additional Securities outstanding immediately prior to such payment by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the amount of the
installment of principal of the Original Securities corresponding to such Payment Date (as it may have been previously reduced in accordance with the following paragraph) and the denominator shall be the aggregate unpaid outstanding principal
balance of the Original Securities immediately prior to such payment. 
 In the event that there shall have been any partial redemption or
purchase of the Securities pursuant to Article 3 or Section 4.06 or 4.08, each principal installment amount set forth above (as it may have been previously reduced in accordance with this paragraph) subsequent to such partial redemption or purchase
shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount obtained by multiplying such principal installment amount as in effect immediately prior to such partial redemption or purchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the aggregate principal
amount of Securities redeemed or purchased pursuant to such partial redemption or purchase and the denominator shall be the aggregate unpaid outstanding principal balance of the Securities immediately prior to such partial redemption or purchase.
Any such reduction shall be made on a pro rata basis, as nearly as practicable, among the Holders of the Securities (subject, however, to the applicable procedures of DTC). 

(c) All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer or any Guarantor (including any successor entity) (each, a
“Payor”) in respect of the Securities or with respect to any Guarantee, as applicable, will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes
is then required by law. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes (subject to Section 4.01(d)) imposed or levied by or on behalf of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, will at any time be required by law to be made from any
payments made by or on behalf of the relevant Payor or paying agent with respect to any Security or any Guarantee, as applicable, including payments of principal, redemption price, interest or premium, if any, such Payor will pay (together with such
payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional 

  
 51 








 
Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by the Holder in respect of such payments, after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or
withholding from such Additional Amounts), will not be less than the amounts which would have been received by the Holder in respect of such payments on any such Security or Guarantee, as applicable, in the absence of such withholding or deduction;
provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable for or on account of: 
 (i) any Taxes that would not
have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant Holder or beneficial owner of a Security and a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (it being understood that a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction is to be
determined as though a payment with respect to the Securities were made on the Issue Date) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or holding of such Security or the receipt of any payment or the
exercise or enforcement of rights under such Security, this Indenture, a Guarantee, the Intercreditor Agreement, any additional intercreditor agreement or a Security Document; 

(ii) any Tax that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure by the Holder or the beneficial owner of such Security to
comply with a reasonable written request of such Payor addressed to the Holder or the beneficial owner, after reasonable notice (at least 30 days before any such withholding or deduction would be payable), to provide certification, information,
documents or other evidence concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or to make any declaration or similar claim or satisfy any other reporting requirement relating to such matters that is required by
a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of deduction of, all or part of such Tax but only to the extent the Holder or such beneficial
owner is legally entitled to provide such certification or documentation; 
 (iii) any Taxes, to the extent that such Taxes
were imposed or withheld as a result of the presentation of such Security for payment (where Securities are in the form of definitive registered notes and presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available
for payment to the Holder (except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had such Security been presented on the last day of such 30-day period); 

(iv) any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from a payment under or with respect to such
Security or any Guarantee; 
 (v) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or similar tax,
assessment or other governmental charge; 

  
 52 








 (vi) any tax imposed by reason of the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s
past or present status (or the past or present status of a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a
partnership or a corporation) as a personal holding company, private foundation or other tax exempt organization, passive foreign investment company, controlled foreign corporation with respect to the United States, bank, or as a corporation that
accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax; or 
 (vii) any combination of items (i) through (vi) above. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be permitted to withhold or deduct any amounts required
by FATCA and none of the Issuer, the Guarantors or any other person shall be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to any FATCA withholding or deduction imposed on or with respect to any Security. 

Each Payor will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. Each Payor will provide certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld to each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes, or if such tax receipts
are not available, certified copies of other reasonable evidence of such payments as soon as reasonably practicable to the Trustee. Such copies shall be made available to the holders upon reasonable request and will be made available at the offices
of the relevant paying agent. 
 If any Payor is obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any payment made on any
Security or any Guarantee, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, such Payor will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable
and such other information necessary to enable the paying agent to pay Additional Amounts to holders on the relevant payment date (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which
case such Payor may deliver such Officers’ Certificate as promptly as practicable thereafter). The Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely on such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary. 

Wherever in this Indenture or the Securities there is mentioned, in any context (i) the payment of principal, (ii) interest, or (iii) any
other amount payable on or with respect to any of the Securities or any Guarantee, such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in
respect thereof. 
 The foregoing obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture and any transfer by
the holder or beneficial owner of a Security, and will apply mutatis mutandis to any jurisdiction in which any successor to a Payor is organized, engaged in business for tax purposes or otherwise resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction
from or through which any payment under, or with respect to such Security (or any Guarantee) is made by or on behalf of such Payor, or any political subdivision or Governmental Authority thereof or therein having the power to tax. 

  
 53 








 (d) When entering into this Indenture, the parties have assumed in good faith that the interest
payments under the Securities and the other Finance Documents are not and will not become subject to any deduction or withholding of Taxes on account of Swiss Withholding Tax (a “Swiss Tax Deduction”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a
Swiss Tax Deduction should, at any time, be or become required by law and should it be unlawful for a Swiss Obligor to comply with Section 4.01(c) for any reason (where this would otherwise be required by the terms of this Indenture or any
other Finance Document), then: 
 (i) the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest payment or guarantee payment
shall be the interest rate that would have applied to that interest payment as provided for by this Indenture and the relevant Security divided by an amount equal to (x) 1 minus (y) the rate at which such Swiss Tax Deduction is required to be made
under Swiss domestic tax law or applicable double taxation treaties (where the rate at which such Swiss Tax Deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction); and 

(ii) such Swiss Obligor shall: 

(A) pay the relevant interest at the adjusted rate in accordance with the provision above; and 

(B) make such Swiss Tax Deduction on the interest so recalculated; and 

All references to a rate of interest under any Finance Document shall be construed accordingly and all related provisions shall apply to the
deduction for Swiss Withholding Tax purposes on the recalculated interest payment. 
 To the extent that interest payable under the
Securities or any other Finance Document becomes or may become subject to Swiss Withholding Tax the relevant Swiss Obligor shall promptly complete any procedural formalities (including submitting forms and documents required by the appropriate Tax
authority) to the extent possible and necessary for such Swiss Obligor to obtain authorization (x) to make interest payments without them being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax or to being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax at a rate reduced
under applicable double taxation treaties, as applicable, and (y) for a Holder of Securities, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to obtain a full or partial refund of Swiss Withholding Tax under applicable double taxation treaties. 

(e) Notwithstanding Section 4.01(d), such Swiss Obligor will not be required to make any payment of Additional Interest, if

 (i) the relevant Holders are eligible for refund application or such Swiss Obligor is eligible for an exemption
application; 

  
 54 








 (ii) the refund or the exemption to such relevant Holders or such Swiss Obligor
has been confirmed in writing by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration to the satisfaction of the Trustee, acting at the direction of such Holders; and 

(iii) the Trustee, acting at the direction of such Holders has given its prior written consent to such waiver of such Swiss
Obligor’s obligation to pay Additional Interest which shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 The relevant Holders shall provide
reasonable efforts to cooperate with the applicable Swiss Obligor to secure such refund or exemption. The Trustee undertakes all reasonable efforts to obtain the documents/information required from such Holders after such Swiss Obligor was notified
by the Trustee of such documents/information required. When the relevant Holders have been able to realize treaty benefits, the applicable Swiss Obligor will have a refund claim against such Holders at the amount of the treaty benefit obtained after
the calculation of the payment as computed under Section 4.01(d)(i). Such refund is subject to any right of set-off pursuant to this Indenture or the other Finance Documents and subject to not being in a less favorable net after-tax position than
such Holders would have been in if such Swiss Withholding Tax had not been required in the first instance. 
 SECTION 4.02. Reports and
Other Information. 
 (a) Annual Financials. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as available, but in
any event within 120 days (or such earlier date on which the Issuer is required to file a Form 10-K under the Exchange Act, if applicable) after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer, beginning with the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017, a
consolidated balance sheet of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the end of such fiscal year, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in
comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all prepared in accordance with GAAP, with such consolidated financial statements to be audited and accompanied by (i) a report and opinion of the Issuer’s independent certified public
accounting firm of recognized standing in the United States (which report and opinion shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP), stating that such financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows of the Issuer as of the dates and for the periods specified in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) (if and only if the Issuer is required to comply with the internal control provisions pursuant to Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requiring an attestation report of such independent certified public accounting firm) an attestation report of such independent certified public accounting firm as to the Issuer’s internal controls pursuant to Section
404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 attesting that such internal controls meet the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; provided, however, that the Issuer shall be deemed to have made such delivery of such consolidated financial
statements and attestation report if such consolidated financial statements and attestation report shall have been made available for free within the time period specified above on the SEC’s EDGAR system (or any successor system adopted by the
SEC); provided, further, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed pursuant to EDGAR (or 

  
 55 








 
its successor). Such consolidated financial statements shall be certified by a Financial Officer as, to his or her knowledge, fairly presenting, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the dates and for the periods specified in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. 

(b) Quarterly Financials. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as available, but in any event within 60 days

September 30, 2016, a consolidated balance sheet of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the end of such fiscal quarter, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for (in respect of the first fiscal
quarter of such fiscal year) such fiscal quarter or (in respect of the second and third fiscal quarters of such fiscal year) for the then-elapsed portion of the Issuer’s fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures
for the comparable period or periods in the previous fiscal year, all prepared in accordance with GAAP; provided, however, that the Issuer shall be deemed to have made such delivery of such consolidated financial statements if such consolidated
financial statements shall have been made available for free within the time period specified above on the SEC’s EDGAR system (or any successor system adopted by the SEC); provided, further, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation
whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed pursuant to EDGAR (or its successor). Such consolidated financial statements shall be certified by a Financial Officer as, to his or her knowledge, fairly
presenting, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the dates and for the periods specified in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, and on a
basis consistent with the audited consolidated financial statements referred to under Section 4.02(a), subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries
have made an acquisition, the financial statements with respect to an acquired entity need not be included in the consolidated quarterly financial statements required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 4.02(b) until the first date upon which
such quarterly financial statements are required to be so delivered that is at least 90 days after the date such acquisition is consummated. 

(c) Compliance with Indenture. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal
year of the Issuer, commencing with respect to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that to each such Officer’s actual knowledge there is no Default or Event of Default that has occurred and is
continuing or, if either such Officer does know of any such Default or Event of Default, such Officer shall include in such certificate a description of such Default or Event of Default and its status with particularity. 

(d) Information During Event of Default. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Holders, promptly, such
additional information regarding the business or financial affairs of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, or compliance with the terms of this Indenture, as the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of beneficial interests in the Securities may from
time to time reasonably request during the existence of any Event of Default (subject to reasonable requirements of confidentiality, including requirements imposed by law or contract; and provided that the Issuer shall not be obligated to disclose
any information that is reasonably subject to the assertion of attorney-client privilege). 

  
 56 








 (e) Rule 144A Information. So long as the Issuer is not subject to either
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall deliver to the Holders, any holder of beneficial interests in the Securities and any prospective purchaser of the Securities or a beneficial interest therein designated by a Holder or such
other Person, promptly upon the request of any such Person, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, so long as the Securities are not freely transferable under the Securities Act. 

(f) Communication of Information. Delivery of information under this Section 4.02 to the Trustee shall be for
informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt thereof shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from any information contained therein, including compliance by the Issuer or any of
its Subsidiaries with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates or certificates or statements delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.02(c)). Neither the Issuer nor
the Guarantors shall be obligated to deliver any confidential reports or other confidential information to any Holder (or any holder of beneficial interests in the Securities) who has not executed a Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture. The Issuer shall provide the Trustee with a list of such Holders (or holders of beneficial interests in the Securities) and shall update such list after the execution and delivery to the Issuer of a Confidentiality Agreement
by any Person not already party to such a Confidentiality Agreement with the Issuer. 
 SECTION 4.03. Limitation on Incurrence of
Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock. 
 (a) (i) The Issuer shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock; and (ii) the Issuer shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
issue any shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer and any Guarantor may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, in each case if the Consolidated Leverage Ratio
of the Issuer would have been less than or equal to 3.5 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 had been issued, as the case may be, and the application of proceeds therefrom had occurred at the beginning of the period for which the Consolidated Leverage Ratio calculation is being performed. 

(b) The limitations set forth in Section 4.03(a) shall not apply to: 

(i) the Incurrence by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness under a Credit Agreement and the issuance and
creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder (with letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the face amount thereof) in the aggregate principal amount outstanding at
any one time not to exceed $10,000,000; 

  
 57 








 (ii) the Incurrence by any of the Issuer and the Guarantors of Indebtedness
represented by the Securities in the aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time not to exceed the Permitted Notes Amount and the Guarantees thereof; 

(iii) Indebtedness and Disqualified Stock existing on the Issue Date (other than Indebtedness described in clauses (i) and
(ii) of this Section 4.03(b)); 
 (iv) Indebtedness (including Capitalized Lease Obligations) Incurred by the Issuer or any
Guarantor, and Disqualified Stock issued by the Issuer or any Guarantor, to finance (whether prior to or contemporaneously with) the acquisition, lease, construction, repair, replacement or improvement of property (real or personal) or equipment
(whether through the direct purchase of assets or the Capital Stock of any Person owning such assets) that (i) is without recourse to any property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary other than the assets so acquired, leased,
constructed, repaired, replaced or improved and (ii) is in an aggregate principal amount that, when aggregated with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness and Disqualified Stock then outstanding that was Incurred pursuant to this clause
(iv), does not exceed $10,000,000; 
 (v) Indebtedness Incurred by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (i)
constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit and bank guarantees issued in the ordinary course of business, including letters of credit in respect of workers’ compensation claims, health, disability or other benefits
to employees or former employees or their families or property, casualty or liability insurance or self-insurance, and letters of credit in connection with the maintenance of, or pursuant to the requirements of, environmental or other permits or
licenses from governmental authorities, or other Indebtedness with respect to reimbursement type obligations regarding workers’ compensation claims or (ii) in respect of Bank Products Obligations; 

(vi) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary providing for indemnification, adjustment
of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, Incurred in connection with any acquisition or disposition of any business, any assets or a Subsidiary of the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, other than guarantees of
Indebtedness Incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; 

(vii) Indebtedness of the Issuer to a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any
Capital Stock or any other event that results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness (except to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary or any pledge of
such Indebtedness constituting a Permitted Lien) shall be deemed, in each case, to be an Incurrence of such Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (vii); 

  
 58 








 (viii) shares of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary issued to the Issuer
or a Guarantor; provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event that results in any Guarantor that holds such shares of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Guarantor or any
other subsequent transfer of any such shares of Preferred Stock (except to the Issuer or a Guarantor) shall be deemed, in each case, to be an issuance of shares of Preferred Stock not permitted by this clause (viii); 

(ix) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; provided, that any
subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event that results in any such Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer holding such Indebtedness ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such
Indebtedness (except to the Issuer or another Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer or any pledge of such Indebtedness constituting a Permitted Lien) shall be deemed, in each case, to be an Incurrence of such Indebtedness not permitted by this clause
(ix); 
 (x) Hedging Obligations of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary entered into in the ordinary course of business
that are not incurred for speculative purposes but: (1) for the purpose of fixing or hedging interest rate risk with respect to any Indebtedness that is permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be outstanding; (2) for the purpose of fixing or
hedging currency exchange rate risk with respect to any currency exchanges; or (3) for the purpose of fixing or hedging commodity price risk with respect to any commodity purchases or sales;

(xii) Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of the Issuer or any Guarantor not otherwise permitted under this Indenture in an
aggregate principal amount or liquidation preference, which when aggregated with the principal amount or liquidation preference of all other Indebtedness and Disqualified Stock then outstanding and Incurred pursuant to this clause (xii), does not
exceed $10,000,000 at any one time outstanding (it being understood that any Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (xii) shall cease to be deemed Incurred or outstanding for purposes of this clause (xii) but shall be deemed Incurred for
purposes of Section 4.03(a) from and after the first date on which the Issuer, or the Guarantor, as the case may be, could have Incurred such Indebtedness under Section 4.03(a) without reliance upon this clause (xii)); 

  
 59 








 (xiii) any guarantee by the Issuer or a Guarantor of Indebtedness or other
obligations of the Issuer or any other Guarantor so long as the Incurrence of such Indebtedness Incurred by the Issuer or such other Guarantor is permitted under the terms of this Indenture; provided that if such Indebtedness is by its
express terms unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or the Guarantee of such other Guarantor, as applicable, any such guarantee of such Guarantor with respect to such Indebtedness shall be unsecured and subordinated in
right of payment to such Guarantor’s Guarantee with respect to the Securities substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Securities or the Guarantee of such other Guarantor, as applicable; 

(xiv) the Incurrence by the Issuer or any Guarantor of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of a Guarantor that serves to
refund, refinance or defease any Indebtedness Incurred or Disqualified Stock issued as permitted under Section 4.03(a) and clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (xii), (xiv), (xv), (xviii), (xx) and (xxiii) of this Section 4.03(b) or any Indebtedness or
Disqualified Stock Incurred to so refund or refinance such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock, including any additional Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock Incurred to pay premiums (including tender premiums and paid-in-kind interest), fees, expenses
and defeasance costs in connection therewith (subject to the following proviso, “Refinancing Indebtedness”) prior to its respective maturity; provided that such Refinancing Indebtedness: 

 

	 	(1)	has a Weighted Average Life to Maturity at the time such Refinancing Indebtedness is Incurred that is not less than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock being
refunded, refinanced or defeased; 

  

	 	(2)	has a Stated Maturity that is not earlier than the earlier of (x) the Stated Maturity of the Indebtedness being refunded or refinanced and (y) 91 days following the Stated Maturity of the Securities; 


 

	 	(3)	to the extent such Refinancing Indebtedness refunds, refinances or defeases (a) Indebtedness junior in right of payment to the Securities or a Guarantee, as applicable, such Refinancing Indebtedness is junior in right
of payment to the Securities or a Guarantee to the same extent as such Indebtedness being refunded, refinanced or defeased, as applicable, or (b) Disqualified Stock, such Refinancing Indebtedness is Disqualified Stock; 


 

	 	(4)	is Incurred in an aggregate principal amount (or if issued with original issue discount, an aggregate issue price) that is equal to or less than the aggregate principal amount (or if issued with original issue discount,
the aggregate accreted value) then outstanding of the Indebtedness being refunded, refinanced or defeased plus premium (including tender premium and paid-in-kind interest), fees, expenses and defeasance costs Incurred in connection with such
refinancing; 


  
 60 









	 	(5)	shall not include Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor that refunds, refinances or defeases Indebtedness of an Unrestricted Subsidiary; and 


 

	 	(6)	in the case of any Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred to refund, refinance or defease Indebtedness outstanding under clause (iv), (xii), (xviii) or (xx) of this Section 4.03(b), shall be deemed to have been Incurred and
to be outstanding under such clause (iv), (xii), (xviii) or (xx) of this Section 4.03(b), as applicable, and not this clause (xiv) for purposes of determining amounts outstanding under such clause (iv), (xii), (xviii) or (xx) of this Section
4.03(b); 

 (xv) Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of (x) the Issuer or any Guarantor incurred to finance an
acquisition of any property or assets or (y) Persons that are acquired by the Issuer or any Guarantor or merged, consolidated or amalgamated with or into the Issuer or a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that,
in each case, immediately after giving effect to such acquisition or merger, consolidation or amalgamation either: 
  

	 	(1)	the Issuer would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Leverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.03(a); or 


 

	 	(2)	the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would be less than immediately prior to such acquisition or merger, consolidation or amalgamation; 


provided, further, that if, with respect to any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xv), the Person so acquired does not become,
upon acquisition, a Guarantor, then the Issuer and the Guarantors shall not guarantee such Indebtedness, and such Indebtedness shall have no recourse to any assets or property of the Issuer or the Guarantors; 

(xvi) Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument

 (d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03, in the event
that an item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xxiv) of Section 4.03(b) or is entitled to be Incurred
pursuant to Section 4.03(a), the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this

Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer may incur pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values following the incurrence of such Indebtedness. 

SECTION 4.04. Limitation on Restricted Payments. 

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

(A) Subordinated Indebtedness in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of such payment, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or
retirement, unless such sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity occurs within one year of the Stated Maturity of the Securities, and (B) Indebtedness permitted under clause (vii) of Section 4.03(b)); or 

(v) make any Restricted Investment 

(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (v) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at
the time of such Restricted Payment: 
 (1) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence
thereof; 
 (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis, the Issuer could Incur $1.00
of additional Indebtedness under Section 4.03(a); and 
 (3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of
all other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries after January 1, 2017 (including Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (i), (iv), (v) (to the extent such dividends did not reduce Consolidated Net Income), (vi) and
(xiv) of Section 4.04(b), but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.04(b)), is less than the amount equal to the Cumulative Credit (with the amount of any Restricted Payment made under this Section 4.04 in any property other
than cash being equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of such property at the time made).

Disqualified Stock or any Equity Interests sold to a Subsidiary of the Issuer or to an employee stock ownership plan or any trust established by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries) (collectively, including any such contributions, “Refunding
Capital Stock”); and (B) the declaration and payment of accrued dividends on the Retired Capital Stock out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Issuer or to an employee stock ownership plan or

 (iii) the redemption,
repurchase, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, new Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor
that is Incurred in accordance with Section 4.03 so long as: 
 (A) the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable)
of such new Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable), plus any accrued and unpaid interest, of the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, acquired or retired for value (plus the amount
of any premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument governing the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, acquired or retired, plus paid-in-kind interest, any tender premiums or any defeasance costs, fees and
expenses incurred in connection therewith); 
 (B) such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Securities or the related
Guarantee, as the case may be, in right of payment as to Lien priority with respect to the Notes Collateral, at least to the same extent as such Subordinated Indebtedness so purchased, exchanged, redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired
for value; 
 (C) such Indebtedness has a Stated Maturity and, if applicable, a First Amortization Date equal to or later
than the earlier of (x) the Stated Maturity of the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, acquired or retired and (y) 91 days following the Stated Maturity of any Securities then outstanding; or 

(D) such Indebtedness has a Weighted Average Life to Maturity at the time Incurred that is not less than the remaining

director, consultant or advisor of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer pursuant to any management equity plan or stock option plan or any other management or employee benefit plan or other
agreement or arrangement; provided that the aggregate amounts paid under this clause (iv) do not exceed $500,000 in any calendar year (with unused amounts in any calendar year being permitted to be carried over for the two succeeding calendar
years subject to a maximum payment (without giving effect to the following proviso) of $1,000,000 in any calendar year); provided, further, that such amount in any calendar year may be increased by an amount not to exceed: 

(A) the cash proceeds received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from the sale of Equity Interests (other
than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer (to the extent contributed to the Issuer) to employees, officers, directors, consultants or advisors of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries or any direct or
indirect parent of the Issuer that occurs after the Issue Date (provided that the amount of such cash proceeds utilized for any such repurchase, retirement, other acquisition or dividend shall not increase the amount available for Restricted
Payments under clause (3) of Section 4.04(a)); plus 
 (B) the cash proceeds of key man life insurance policies received by
the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer (to the extent contributed to the Issuer) or the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date;

any one or more calendar years; and provided, further, that cancellation of Indebtedness owing to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from any present or former employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors of the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary or the direct or indirect parent of the Issuer will not be deemed to constitute a Restricted Payment for purposes of this Section 4.04 or any other provision of this Indenture; 

(v) the declaration and payment of dividends or distributions to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Stock of the
Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries issued or incurred in accordance with Section 4.03;

any class or series of Designated Preferred Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of any direct or indirect parent of the Issuer issued after the Issue Date; provided, however, that, (A) immediately after giving effect to such declaration
(and the payment of dividends or distributions) on a pro forma basis, the Issuer would be able to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) and (B) the aggregate amount of dividends declared and paid pursuant
to this clause (vi) does not exceed the net cash proceeds actually received by the Issuer from any such sale of Designated Preferred Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) issued after the Issue Date;

to subsequent changes in value); 
 (viii) payments or distributions to dissenting stockholders or equityholders pursuant to
applicable law, pursuant to or in connection with a consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, that complies with Article 5, provided

such Change of Control Offer have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value; 
 (ix) other Restricted Payments that

 (x) other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1,000,000;

(xv) of this Section 4.04(b), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof. 

(c) For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated shall be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investments.”
Such designation shall only be permitted if a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” 

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.04, in the event that a Restricted Payment (or any portion
thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories described in Section 4.04(b) or is entitled to be made pursuant to Section 4.04(a), the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or
reclassify, such Restricted Payment (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.04. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not, directly or indirectly (and shall cause their Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly), use Permitted Investments pursuant to clause (9) or (19) of the
definition of “Permitted Investments” to make Restricted Payments of the type described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 4.04(b). 

SECTION 4.05. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its

(2) this Indenture, the Guarantees, the Securities, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements; 

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

(4) any agreement or other instrument relating to Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary that was in existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof or to provide all or any portion of the funds or guarantees utilized to consummate 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;

 69 








 (11) other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of the Issuer or
any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer so long as such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any agreement or instrument will not materially affect the Issuer’s ability to make anticipated principal or interest payments on the Securities
(as determined in good faith by the Issuer), provided that such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is permitted to be Incurred subsequent to the Issue Date under Section 4.03; 

(12) any Permitted Investment (to the extent such encumbrance or restriction was not made in contemplation of such Permitted
Investment and were in existence on the date of such Permitted Investment); or

the type referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in
clauses (1) through (12) above; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, no more restrictive with
respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.05, (i) the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or liquidating
distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on other Capital Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and (ii) the subordination of loans or advances made to the
Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances. 

SECTION 4.06. Asset Sales and MosaiQTM Excess License Proceeds. 

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless (x)
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed
of, and (y) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of: 

(i) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the
notes thereto) of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (other than liabilities (1) that are by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Securities or any Guarantee, (2) that are unsecured, (3) that are secured by a Lien
on any Notes Collateral ranking junior to the Liens on such Notes Collateral securing the Securities or any Guarantee or (4) that are owed to the Issuer, a Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the foregoing) that are assumed by the transferee of any such
assets or that are otherwise cancelled or terminated in connection with the transaction with such transferee, 

  
 70 








 (ii) any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets received by
the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer into Cash Equivalents within 180 days of the receipt thereof (to the extent of the Cash
Equivalents received), and 
 (iii) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer), taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (iii) that is at that time
outstanding, not to exceed $1,000,000 (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value) 

shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for the purposes of this Section 4.06(a). 

(b) Within 365 days after the Issuer’s or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer’s receipt of the Net Proceeds of
any Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, at its option: 

(i) (A) if the subject assets constitute ABL Collateral that secures First Priority Lien Obligations, to permanently repay
Indebtedness constituting First Priority Lien Obligations, including Secured Bank Indebtedness (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving Indebtedness, to correspondingly permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto) or (B) if the subject
assets constitute ABL Collateral that secures First Priority Lien Obligations or if the subject assets constitute Excluded Assets, to repay Pari Passu Indebtedness (provided that if the Issuer or any Guarantor shall so reduce Obligations
under Pari Passu Indebtedness, the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Securities as provided under the optional redemption provisions of Paragraph 5 of the Security, through open-market purchases (provided that such
purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, the pro rata principal amount of Securities, in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer); or 

(ii) except with respect to the Net Proceeds of an MosaiQTM Intellectual Property Sale (which Net Proceeds, for the
avoidance of doubt, will be applied pursuant to Section 4.06(c) without regard to such 365-day period), to (A) make an Investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such Investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital
Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer 

  
 71 








 
or, if such Person is a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, in an increase in the percentage ownership of such Person by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer), non-current
assets, or non-current property, in each case (x) used or useful in a Similar Business or (y) that replace the properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale or (B) make capital expenditures; provided that any such Investment, assets,
property or capital expenditures, to the extent acquired with Net Proceeds of an Asset Sale of Notes Collateral, shall be pledged as Notes Collateral (including any assets held by a Person acquired using Net Proceeds, which shall not be ABL
Collateral even if such assets or property are of a type that would otherwise be ABL Collateral). 
 In the case of clause (ii) above, a
binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment, so long as the Net Proceeds are applied within 450 days after the receipt thereof. Pending the final application of any such Net
Proceeds, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture, provided that the
Net Proceeds of an Asset Sale of Notes Collateral shall be held in an account that is pledged as Notes Collateral. 
 (c) Any
(i) Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale of Notes Collateral (other than ABL Collateral to the extent it secures First Priority Lien Obligations) that are not applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.06(a) or 4.06(b)
(including the Net Proceeds of a MosaiQTM Intellectual Property Sale) (it being understood that any portion of such Net Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Securities, as described in Section 4.06(b)(i), shall be deemed to have been
invested whether or not such offer is accepted) and (ii) MosaiQTM Excess License Proceeds shall be deemed to constitute “Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds exceeds
$5,000,000, the Issuer shall make an offer to all Holders of Securities (and, at the option of the Issuer, to holders of any Pari Passu Indebtedness (other than Secured Bank Indebtedness)) (a “Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer”) to
purchase the maximum principal amount of Securities (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) that is at least $50,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000 that may be purchased out of the Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an
amount equal to 100% of the principal balance thereof (or, in the event such Pari Passu Indebtedness was issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest (or, in respect of such
Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.06. The Issuer
shall commence a Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer with respect to Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days after the existence of Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds by providing the written notice required pursuant to Section 4.06(h),
with a copy to the Trustee. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Securities (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) tendered pursuant to a Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer is less than the Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any
remaining Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds for any purpose that is not prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Securities (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Notes
Collateral Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be purchased in the manner described in Section 4.06(g). Upon completion of any such Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds shall be
reset at zero. 

  
 72 








 (d) Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale of Excluded Assets or ABL Collateral
that secures First Priority Lien Obligations that are not applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.06(a) or 4.06(b) (it being understood that any portion of such Net Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Securities,
as described in Section 4.06(b)(i), shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is accepted) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $5,000,000, the Issuer
shall make an offer to all Holders of Securities (and, at the option of the Issuer, to holders of any Pari Passu Indebtedness) (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase the maximum principal amount of Securities (and such Pari Passu
Indebtedness) that is at least $1,000 and an integral multiple of $50,000 that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal balance thereof (or, in the event such Pari Passu
Indebtedness was issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest (or, in respect of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms
of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.06. The Issuer will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days
after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $5,000,000 by providing the written notice required pursuant to Section 4.06(h), with a copy to the Trustee. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Securities (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) tendered
pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose that is not prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Securities (and such Pari Passu
Indebtedness) surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be purchased in the manner described in Section 4.06(g). Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of
Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 
 (e) The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange
Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities pursuant to a Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer or an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that
the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in
this Indenture by virtue thereof. 
 (f) Not later than the date upon which written notice of a Notes Collateral Asset Sale
Offer or an Asset Sale Offer, as the case may be, is delivered to the Trustee as provided above, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate as to (i) the amount of the Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds or the Excess
Proceeds, as the case may be, (ii) the application of the Net Proceeds from the Asset Sales pursuant to which such Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as the case may be, is being made and (iii) the compliance of such application
with the provisions of Section 4.06(b). On the specified date of purchase, the Issuer shall also irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary is acting as the Paying Agent,
segregate 

  
 73 








 
and hold in trust) an amount equal to the Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds or the Excess Proceeds, as the case may be, to be invested in Cash Equivalents, as directed in writing by the Issuer,
and to be held for payment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.06. Upon the expiration of the period for which the Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as the case may be, remains open (the “Offer
Period”), the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee for cancellation the Securities or portions thereof that have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Issuer, along with a written payment and cancellation order. The Trustee (or
the Paying Agent, if not the Trustee) shall, on the date of purchase, mail or deliver payment to each tendering Holder in the amount of the purchase price as determined by the Issuer and stated in the written payment and cancellation order. In the
event that the Notes Collateral Excess Proceeds or Excess Proceeds, as the case may be, delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee are greater than the purchase price of the Securities tendered, the Trustee shall deliver the excess to the Issuer
immediately after the expiration of the Offer Period for application in accordance with Section 4.06. 
 (g) Holders electing
to have a Security purchased shall be required to surrender the Security, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Issuer at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the purchase date. Holders shall be
entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security that
was delivered by the Holder for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing such Holder’s election to have such Security purchased. If at the end of the Offer Period more Securities (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness, as applicable)
are tendered pursuant to a Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer or an Asset Sale Offer, as the case may be, than the Issuer is required to purchase, and if the Securities are Global Securities held by the Depository, the Depository will select the
Securities to be redeemed in accordance with its operational arrangements. If the Securities are not Global Securities held by the Depository, selection of such Securities for purchase shall be made by the Trustee on a pro rata basis, by lot or by
such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements); provided that no Securities of $1,000 or less shall be purchased in part. Selection of such Pari Passu
Indebtedness, as applicable, shall be made by the representative for such Pari Passu Indebtedness pursuant to the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness; provided that any purchase by the Issuer of Pari Passu Indebtedness and Securities tendered
pursuant to a Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer or an Asset Sale Offer shall otherwise be made on a pro rata basis, as nearly as practicable. 

(h) Written notices of a Notes Collateral Asset Sale Offer or an Asset Sale Offer shall be provided by the Issuer at least 30
but not more than 60 days before the purchase date to each Holder of Securities at such Holder’s registered address with a copy to the Trustee (or electronically pursuant to DTC’s applicable procedures). If any Security is to be purchased
in part only, any notice of purchase that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased. Holders whose Securities are purchased only in part shall be issued new Securities equal
in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered. If the Securities are Global Securities held by the Depository, then the applicable operational procedures of the Depository for tendering and withdrawing securities will
apply.

 SECTION 4.07. Transactions with Affiliates. 

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment
to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan,
advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $500,000, unless: 

(i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted
Subsidiary (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 

(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration
in excess of $2,500,000, the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted in good faith by the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, approving such Affiliate Transaction and certifying that such Affiliate
Transaction complies with clause (i) above, as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate. 
 (b) The provisions of Section
4.07(a) shall not apply to the following: 
 (i) any transaction or series of transactions between or among any of the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (or an entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction), including any payment to, or sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any properties or assets to, or purchase of any
property or assets from, or any contract, agreement, amendment, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (or an entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result
of such transaction); 
 (ii) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.04 and Permitted Investments (without giving effect
to clause (12) of the definition thereof); 
 (iii) the payment of reasonable and customary compensation, benefits, fees and
reimbursement of expenses paid to, and indemnity, contribution and insurance provided on behalf of, current or former officers, directors, employees, consultants or advisors of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

(iv) transactions in which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a

 75 








 (v) payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to current or former officers,
directors, employees, consultants or advisors of the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer and employment agreements, stock option plans and other similar arrangements with such officers, directors, employees, consultants or
advisors that, in each case, are approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer in good faith; 

(vi) any agreement as in effect as of the Issue Date or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or thereof (so long
as any such agreement together with all amendments, modifications or replacements thereto or thereof, taken as a whole, is not more disadvantageous to the holders of the Securities in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on
the Issue Date, as determined in good faith by the Issuer) or any transaction specifically contemplated thereby; 
 (vii)
the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any stockholders or equityholders agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related
thereto) to which it is a party as of the Issue Date and any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or thereof or similar transactions, agreements or arrangements that it may enter into thereafter; provided that the existence of, or the
performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under, any future amendment, modification or replacement to or of any such existing transaction, agreement or arrangement or under any similar transaction, agreement
or arrangement entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (vii) to the extent that the terms of any such existing transaction, agreement or arrangement together with all amendments, modifications or replacements thereto
or thereof, taken as a whole, or new transaction, agreement or arrangement are not otherwise more disadvantageous to the holders of the Securities in any material respect than the original transaction, agreement or arrangement as in effect on the
Issue Date as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 
 (viii) (A) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or
purchasers or sellers of goods or services, or transactions otherwise relating to the purchase or sale of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, which are fair
to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as applicable) in the reasonable determination of the Issuer, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party or (B) transactions
with joint ventures or Unrestricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business that are not otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Indenture; 

(ix) the issuance of, or transactions with respect to which the sole consideration from the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary consists of, Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to any Person; 

  
 76 








 (x) the issuances of securities or other payments, awards or grants in cash,
securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, stock option and stock ownership plans or similar employee or director benefit plans approved by the Board of Directors of the Issuer or any direct or indirect parent

(xv) the formation and maintenance of any consolidated group or subgroup for tax, accounting or cash pooling or management
purposes in the ordinary course of business; or 
 (xvi) payroll, travel and similar advances to cover matters that are
expected at the time of such advances ultimately to be treated as expenses for accounting purposes and that are made in the ordinary course of business consistent with industry practice. 

SECTION 4.08. Change of Control. 

(a) Upon a Change of Control, each Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of such
Holder’s then outstanding Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal balance thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant
Record Date to receive interest due on the related Payment Date), in accordance with the terms contemplated in this Section 4.08; provided, however, that notwithstanding the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer shall not be
obligated to repurchase any Securities pursuant to this Section 4.08 in the event that it has exercised (i) its unconditional right to redeem such Securities in accordance with Article 3 or (ii) its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance
option in accordance with Article 8. 

  
 77 








 (b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, except to the extent that the
Issuer has exercised (x) its unconditional right to redeem the Securities by delivery of a notice of redemption in accordance with Article 3 or (y) its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option in accordance with Article 8, the Issuer
shall provide a written notice (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee stating: 

(i) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Issuer to repurchase such
Holder’s Securities at a repurchase price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the principal balance thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the
Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest on the related Payment Date); 
 (ii) the circumstances
and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Change of Control; 
 (iii) the repurchase date (which shall be
no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such written notice is provided); and 
 (iv) the instructions
determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 4.08, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities repurchased. 

(c) Holders electing to have a Security repurchased shall be required to surrender the Security, with an appropriate form duly
completed, to the Issuer at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to the repurchase date. The Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the
repurchase date a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Security that was delivered for purchase by the Holder and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election
to have such Security repurchased. Holders whose Securities are repurchased only in part shall be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered. If the Securities are Global Securities held
by the Depository, then the applicable operational procedures of the Depository for tendering and withdrawing securities will apply. 

(d) On the repurchase date, all Securities repurchased by the Issuer under this Section 4.08 shall be delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation, and the Issuer shall pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Holders entitled thereto. 

(e) A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a
definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. 
 (f)
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if 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 4.08 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 

(g) Securities repurchased by the Issuer pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will have the status of Securities issued but
not outstanding or will be retired and canceled at the option of the Issuer. Securities purchased by a third party pursuant to Section 4.08(f) will have the status of Securities issued and outstanding. 

  
 78 








 (h) At the time the Issuer delivers Securities to the Trustee that are to be
accepted for repurchase, the Issuer shall also deliver an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Securities are to be accepted by the Issuer pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.08 and confirming whether the
Securities will be considered issued but not outstanding, or include orders to cancel the repurchased Securities. A Security shall be deemed to have been accepted for repurchase at the time the Trustee, directly or through an agent, provides payment
therefor to the surrendering Holder. 
 (i) Prior to providing written notice to the Holders of any Change of Control Offer,
the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent contained herein to the right of the Issuer to make such offer have been complied with. 

(j) The Issuer shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to this Section 4.08. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuer shall
comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.08 by virtue thereof. 

(k) If holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not
withdraw such Securities in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control offer in lieu of the Issuer as described above, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders,
the Issuer or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 15 days nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, provided that such notice is given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer
described above, to redeem all Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase on a date at a price in cash equal to the Change of Control Payment. 

SECTION 4.09. Further Instruments and Acts. The Issuer shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as
may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 4.10. Future
Guarantors. The Issuer shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary, within 10 Business Days of becoming a Restricted Subsidiary, to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit C pursuant to which
such Restricted Subsidiary shall guarantee the Issuer’s Obligations under the Securities and this Indenture.
 SECTION 4.11.
Liens. The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist (a) any Lien (except Permitted Liens) on any asset or property of the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary securing Indebtedness or (b) any Lien on ABL Collateral securing any First Priority Lien Obligation of the Issuer or any Guarantor without effectively providing that the Securities or the applicable Guarantee, as the case may be, shall be
secured by a junior security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) upon the assets or property constituting such ABL Collateral for such First 

  
 79 








 
Priority Lien Obligations; provided, however, that (1) all such Liens on the ABL Collateral shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and (2) no such junior security interest upon
any Lockbox Account constituting ABL Collateral shall be required. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.11, in the
event that a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Liens described in the foregoing paragraph or in clauses (1) through (29) of the definition of “Permitted
Liens,” then the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such Lien securing an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.11. 

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such
Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of
interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, amortization of original issue discount and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of
fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies, in each case in respect of such Indebtedness. 
 The Liens granted in favor of the
Collateral Agent on the Notes Collateral to secure the Obligations in respect of the Securities shall be subordinated to any Lien granted in favor of any third party on such Notes Collateral that is permitted by clause (17) of the definition of
“Permitted Liens” (other than such Permitted Liens in favor of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary) and, upon request from the Issuer (which shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate), the Collateral Agent shall take such
action as is requested by the Issuer to reflect such subordination (including the entry into non-disturbance and similar agreements) in connection with the licensing of Intellectual Property and any other transactions permitted by such clause (17),
such as confirming in writing to any actual or potential licensee or counterparty that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not, by enforcing its Lien, or otherwise, disturb or otherwise affect the prior Lien of such licensee or counterparty or any other
rights of the licensee or counterparty under the relevant agreements, (ii) so long as such licensee or counterparty is not in breach of or default under its agreements with the Issuer or its Subsidiaries, neither the Collateral Agent nor any
successor thereto shall assert any rights of the Issuer or any Subsidiary to terminate any rights or benefits of the licensee or counterparty pursuant to the terms of such agreements, and (iii) upon entry by the Issuer or any Subsidiary into any
non-exclusive license agreement with respect to such Intellectual Property with the party licensing such Intellectual Property, such non-exclusive licensee shall take its license rights under such license agreement free of the Liens on the Notes
Collateral. 
 SECTION 4.12. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

(a) The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an Affiliate of the Trustee or
Registrar) where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be made. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice
to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If 

  
 80 








 
at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be made at
the corporate trust place of payment and notices and demands may be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as set forth in Section 12.01. 

(b) The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities 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 shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or
agency for such purposes. The Issuer shall 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. 

(c) The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or its agent as such office or agency of the Issuer
in accordance with Section 2.04. 
 SECTION 4.13. After-Acquired Property. Upon the acquisition by any Issuer or any Guarantor of any
assets or property, including any new Subsidiary of the Issuer or any Guarantor (in each case, other than Excluded Assets) (“After-Acquired Property”), the Issuer or such Guarantor shall promptly execute and deliver such mortgages, deeds
of trust, security instruments, pledge agreements, financing statements and certificates and opinions of counsel as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected security interest or other Lien, subject only to Permitted
Liens, in such After-Acquired Property and to have such After-Acquired Property (but subject to certain limitations, if applicable, including as described under Article 11) added to the Notes Collateral, and shall promptly deliver such
Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel as are customary in secured financing transactions in the relevant jurisdictions or as are reasonably requested by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent (subject to customary assumptions, exceptions
and qualifications), and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Notes Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such After-Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same force and effect; provided that if granting a
security interest or Lien in such After-Acquired Property requires the consent of a third party, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent with respect to the security interest or Lien for the benefit of the
Collateral Agent on behalf of the Holders of the Securities; provided, further, that if such third party does not consent to the granting of such security interest or Lien after the use of such commercially reasonable efforts, the Issuer or
such Guarantor, as the case may be, will not be required to provide such security interest or Lien (so long as no other Person is granted a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien that is not an Excluded Permitted Lien) on such After-Acquired Property
securing any Indebtedness following such acquisition or in contemplation thereof); and provided, further, that with respect to the security interest in After-Acquired Property that constitutes ABL Collateral securing First Priority
Lien Obligations, such security interest securing the Securities and the Guarantees shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any property or assets of the Issuer or any Guarantor originally deemed to be an
Excluded Asset at any point ceases to be an Excluded Asset pursuant to such defined term, all or the applicable portion of such property and assets shall be deemed to be After-Acquired Property and shall be added to the Notes Collateral in
accordance with the previous sentence. 

  
 81 








 SECTION 4.14. Intellectual Property. The Issuer shall, at its sole expense, either
directly or by using commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Restricted Subsidiary or any licensee to do so, take any and all commercially reasonable actions to (a) diligently maintain the Intellectual Property owned or held by the Issuer or
any Restricted Subsidiary on the Issue Date and (b) to the extent the Issuer, any Restricted Subsidiary or any licensee in good faith determines appropriate, diligently defend or assert the Intellectual Property against infringement or interference
by any other Persons and against any claims of invalidity or unenforceability by any other Persons (including by bringing any legal action for infringement or defending any counterclaim of invalidity or action for declaratory judgment of
non-infringement) in each case where the failure to so act, prepare, execute, deliver or file would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Intellectual Property related to Blood Grouping or Serological Disease Screening, or
the business, results of operations or financial condition, of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, taken as a whole. The Issuer shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Restricted Subsidiary or
any licensee not to, disclaim or abandon, or fail to take any action the Issuer in good faith determines appropriate to prevent the disclaimer or abandonment of, the Intellectual Property, in each case where such disclaimer, abandonment or failure
to take any such action would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Intellectual Property related to Blood Grouping or Serological Disease Screening, or the business, results of operations or financial condition, of the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, taken as a whole. Any license of the Intellectual Property rights related to MosaiQTM (to the extent that such Intellectual Property right is directly owned, licensed or otherwise held by the
Issuer or any Guarantor on the Issue Date and included in the Notes Collateral on the date of such license) to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall only be to the Issuer or a Guarantor. 

SECTION 4.15. Line of Business. Except to such extent as would not be material to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries as a
whole, the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any line of business other than those businesses engaged in on the Issue Date and businesses or other activities that are reasonably similar,
ancillary, complementary or related to, or a reasonable extension, development or expansion of, those businesses engaged on the Issue Date. 

SECTION 4.16. Use of Proceeds. The Issuer shall use, or will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to use, the net proceeds from the
issuance and sale of the Securities to repay all outstanding obligations under the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of August 3, 2015, with Midcap Financial Trust, as amended, to finance the
construction or acquisition of the approximately 92,000 square foot manufacturing, laboratory and office facility in the process of being constructed at the Midlothian Biocampus near Edinburgh, Scotland, to finance the construction or acquisition of
a manufacturing facility for MosaiQTM consumables located in Eysins, Switzerland, to fund the Cash Reserve Account on the Issue Date in the amount of the Initial Cash Reserve Amount, to fund the Cash Reserve Account on the date of issuance of
the Additional Securities in the amount of the Additional Cash Reserve Amount, to pay fees, costs and expenses arising in connection with the issuance of the Securities and for general corporate purposes. 

SECTION 4.17. Existence. Subject to Article 5, each of the Issuer and each Guarantor will do or cause to be done all things necessary
to preserve and keep in full force and 

  
 82 








 
effect its respective existences, rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or
franchise, or the existence of any Guarantor, if the Issuer shall determine in good faith that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 

SECTION 4.18. Scotland Sale/Leaseback Transaction. If the Issuer or any Guarantor consummates a Sale/Leaseback Transaction in respect
of the approximately 92,000 square foot manufacturing, laboratory and office facility in the process of being constructed at the Midlothian Biocampus near Edinburgh, Scotland, the Issuer or such Guarantor shall cause the related lease agreement to
permit the granting of a Lien in respect of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s rights thereunder for the benefit of the Collateral Agent. 

SECTION 4.19. Cash Reserve Account. On the Issue Date, the Issuer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, funds equal to the Initial
Cash Reserve Amount into the Cash Reserve Account and, on the date of issuance of the Additional Securities, the Issuer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, funds equal to the Additional Cash Reserve Amount into the Cash Reserve Account. For so
long as the Securities are outstanding, the Trustee shall maintain the Cash Reserve Account. The Trustee shall not withdraw funds from or invest funds in the Cash Reserve Account and shall not permit any other Person to withdraw funds from or invest
funds in the Cash Reserve Account, except (a) absent the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the funds in the Cash Reserve Account may be invested in Cash Equivalents at the written direction of the Issuer, (b) after the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default, acting at the direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, the Trustee shall apply the Cash Equivalents in the Cash Reserve Account
to the Obligations or (c) upon written request of the Issuer to the Trustee, as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate (including the calculation of the then-applicable Cash Reserve Amount), the Trustee shall remit Cash Equivalents in the Cash
Reserve Account to, or at the written direction of, the Issuer in an amount not greater than the excess (if any) above the then-applicable Cash Reserve Amount. Upon the release of the Notes Collateral from the Lien and security interest created by
the Security Documents pursuant to Section 11.02(a)(v) or Section 11.08, the Trustee shall remit Cash Equivalents in the Cash Reserve Account to, or at the written direction of, the Issuer. The Trustee will not be responsible for the costs of any
such investments, and shall have no liability for any investment losses, including any market loss on any investment liquidated prior to maturity in order to make a payment required hereunder. All of such costs shall be charged against the
funds on deposit in the Cash Reserve Account. With respect to any direction or notice in respect of the investment of any funds in the Cash Reserve Account received by the Trustee after 10:00 A.M., New York City time, the Trustee shall not be
required to effect such investment instruction until the following Business Day. All amounts earned on the investments of funds in the Cash Reserve Account will be treated as income of the Issuer for United States federal income tax purposes.
The Issuer acknowledges that, to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency, or other applicable regulatory entity, grant the Issuer the right to receive individual confirmations of security transactions at no additional cost, as they
occur, the Issuer specifically waives receipt of such confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Trustee will furnish the Issuer with periodic cash transaction statements that include detail for all investment transactions made by the
Trustee hereunder.

of 60 days following the entry thereof; 

  
 87 








 (h) any representation or warranty made in writing by or on behalf of the Issuer
or any Guarantor in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities or made in writing by or on behalf of the Issuer or any Guarantor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Indenture and the Security Documents proves to
have been false or incorrect in any material respect on the date as of which made (or, if such representation or warranty is given as of a specific time, as of such time); 

(i) the Collateral Agent fails to have a perfected security interest in any portion of the Notes Collateral with a value

(l) the Issuer or any Guarantor fails to comply for 60 days after notice with its obligations contained in the Security

 The foregoing
shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or
regulation of any administrative or governmental body. 
 A Default under clause (c) or (l) above shall not constitute an Event of Default
until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities notify the Issuer (and also the Trustee if given by the Holders) of the Default and the Issuer does not cure such Default within the time specified in
clause (c) or (l) above after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the
occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any event that is, or with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or
proposes to take in respect thereof. 
 SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified
in Section 6.01(e) or 6.01(f) with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Securities by written notice to the Issuer may, and if such notice is given by the
Holders such notice shall be given to the Issuer and the Trustee, declare that the principal of, and the premium, 

  
 88 








 
if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Securities is due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(e) or 6.01(f) with respect to the Issuer occurs, the principal of, and the premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable,
without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if all existing Events of
Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 

If the principal of, premium, if any or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities becomes due and payable as provided above (an
“Acceleration”) prior to the First Call Date, the principal of, and the premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on the Securities that shall be due and payable in connection with any payment that occurs following such Acceleration
and prior to the First Call Date shall equal the redemption price set forth in Paragraph 5 of the form of Security set forth in Exhibit A hereto in effect on the date such amount is paid, as if such Acceleration were an optional redemption of the
Securities affected thereby on the date such amount is paid. The amount described in the preceding sentence is intended to be liquidated damages and not unmatured interest or a penalty. 

In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any
resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose the Issuer delivers an Officers’
Certificate to the Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, (y) the Holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be)
giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it being understood that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Securities as described above be annulled,
waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events. 
 SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may, but only at the written direction of Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities, pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the
Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even
if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder 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. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. To the extent required by law, all available remedies are cumulative. 

SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. Provided the Securities are not then due and payable by reason of a declaration of acceleration,
the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities by written notice to the Trustee may waive an existing 

  
 89 








 
Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Security, (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Security when
required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Issuer, the
Trustee and the Holders will be restored to their former positions and rights under this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. Any past Default or compliance with any provisions
may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. 
 SECTION 6.05.
Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or
power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or
that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not
taking such action. 
 SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. 

(a) Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no Holder may pursue
any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless: 
 (i) the Holder gives the Trustee written notice
stating that an Event of Default is continuing; 
 (ii) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then
outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (iii) such Holder or Holders offer to
the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (iv) the Trustee does not
comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (v) the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period. 

(b) A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over
another Holder. 
 SECTION 6.07. Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the
right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed 

  
 90 








 
or provided for in this Indenture or in the Securities, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the
consent of such Holder. 
 SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or Section
6.01(b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any other obligor on the Securities for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on
overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Securities) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.06. 

SECTION 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may 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 reasonable compensation, expenses disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other professionals as the
Trustee deems necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any Guarantor, their creditors or their property, shall be entitled to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of
any official committee of creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions and be a
member of a creditors’ or other similar committee, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make 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 it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06.

 SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6 or any Security Document, the
Trustee (after giving effect to Section 5.3 of the Collateral Agreement) shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 

FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.06; 

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

THIRD: to the Issuer or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such
record date, the Trustee shall provide to each Holder and the Issuer a written notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. 

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 

  
 91 








 
omitted by it as 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 and expenses, 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 pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities. 

SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any
time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture;
and the Issuer and each Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall
suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 SECTION 6.13. Holder Request. At the
written request of the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of beneficial interests in the Securities that certifies to the Trustee that it is a holder of such beneficial interests or is actually known by the Trustee to be such a holder of beneficial
interests as evidenced by a Confidentiality Agreement that has previously been delivered to the Trustee), the Trustee shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of such request and at the Issuer’s sole cost and expense, (a) contact each Holder
or each other Holder (and each other holder of beneficial interests in the Securities) to request each such other Holder or other Holder (and each such other holder of beneficial interests in the Securities) to provide its written permission to

beneficial interests in the Securities), including pursuant to Section 4.02(f) and (b) disclose to the Issuer or the requesting Holder (or other holder of beneficial interests in the Securities) the identity of any such Holder or other Holder (and
any such other holder of beneficial interests in the Securities) who provides such written permission to the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no liability if it contacts any Person that it believes to be a beneficial holder of the Securities that is
not a beneficial holder of the Securities. 
 ARTICLE 7

Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs, except with respect to the
obligation to exercise rights and remedies following an Event of Default, which right and remedies shall be performed by the Trustee acting solely upon the direction of Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities in accordance with

any such instance, but may accept the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of such statement or the correctness of such opinions. However, in the case of certificates or opinions required by any provision hereof to be provided to
it, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

upon the request or authority or consent of any person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the Holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon future Holders of Securities and upon Securities
executed and delivered in exchange therefor or in place thereof. 
 (k) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or
liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military
disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts that
are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 

SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of
Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. The Trustee and its Affiliates have engaged, currently are engaged and may in the future engage in financial or other
transactions with the Issuer and its Affiliates in the ordinary course of their respective businesses. Any Paying Agent or Registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.09 and 7.10. 

SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the
validity or adequacy of this Indenture, any Guarantee, the Securities or any Security Documents, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the
Issuer or any Guarantor in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
any Default or Event of Default under Section 6.01(c), 6.01(d), 6.01(e), 6.01(f), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i), 6.01(j), 6.01(k) or 6.01(l) unless either (a) a Trust Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof or (b) the Trustee shall have received
written notice thereof in accordance with Section 12.01 from the Issuer, any Guarantor or any Holder. 
 SECTION 7.05. Notice of
Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall provide to each Holder written notice of the 

  
 95 








 
Default within 30 days after it is actually known to a Trust Officer or written notice referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
“notice of default,” is received by the Trustee in accordance with Section 12.01. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if
and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders. 

SECTION 7.06. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its
services, as agreed between the Issuer and the Trustee. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (including reasonable and documented
attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture or a Guarantee against the
Issuer or a Guarantor (including this Section 7.06) and defending itself against or investigating any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, any Guarantor, any Holder or any other Person). The obligation to pay such amounts shall survive the
discharge of this Indenture, the payment in full or defeasance of the Securities or the removal or resignation of the Trustee. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge
thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer or any Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide
reasonable cooperation at the Issuer’s expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Issuer and the Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel;
provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no conflict of interest
between the Issuer and the Guarantors, as applicable, and such parties in connection with such defense. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party through such
party’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction) or with respect to any settlement made without its consent. 

To secure the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.06, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the
Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, particular Securities. 

The Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations pursuant to this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of
this Indenture, any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any bankruptcy law or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee


  
 96 








 
incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(e) or Section 6.01(f) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under the Bankruptcy Law. 
 No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to its satisfaction. 

SECTION 7.07. Replacement of Trustee. 

(a) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time upon 30 days prior notice to the Issuer by so notifying the Issuer. The
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Trustee if: 

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09; 

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

(iv) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 

(b) If the Trustee resigns or is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities
and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. 
 (c) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee
and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall provide a
written notice of its succession to the Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.06. 

(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(e) If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09, any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least six
months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

(f) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.07, the obligations of the Issuer and the
Guarantors under Section 7.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

  
 97 








 SECTION 7.08. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges with
or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be
the successor Trustee. 
 In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall
succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such
Securities so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force that it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 

SECTION 7.09. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of Section 310(a) of the TIA, as
if this Indenture and the rights and duties of the Trustee in respect hereof were subject to the TIA. The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of
condition. The Trustee shall comply with Section 310(b) of the TIA, as if this Indenture and the rights and duties of the Trustee in respect hereof were subject to the TIA, subject to its right to apply for a stay of its duty to resign under the
penultimate paragraph of Section 310(b) of the TIA; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Section 310(b)(1) of the TIA any series of securities issued under this Indenture and any indenture or indentures
under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer is outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Section 310(b)(1) of the TIA are met. 

SECTION 7.10. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the
TIA, as if this Indenture and the rights and duties of the Trustee in respect hereof were subject to the TIA, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the TIA. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to
Section 311(a) of the TIA, as if this Indenture and the rights and duties of the Trustee in respect hereof were subject to the TIA, to the extent indicated. 

SECTION 7.11. Confidential Information. The Trustee, in its individual capacity and as Trustee, agrees and acknowledges that all
confidential information (“Confidential Information”) provided to the Trustee by the Issuer or any Subsidiary (or any direct or indirect equityholder of the Issuer or such Subsidiary) or any Holder (or holder of a beneficial interest in
the Securities) may be considered to be proprietary and confidential information. The Trustee agrees to take reasonable precautions to keep Confidential Information confidential, which precautions shall be no less stringent than those that the
Trustee employs to protect its own confidential information. The Trustee shall not disclose to any third party other 

  
 98 








 
than as set forth herein, and shall not use for any purpose other than the exercise of the Trustee’s rights and the performance of its obligations under this Indenture, any Confidential
Information without the prior written consent of the Issuer or such Holder (or such holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities), as applicable. The Trustee shall limit access to Confidential Information received hereunder to (a) its
directors, officers, managers and employees and (b) its legal advisors, to each of whom disclosure of Confidential Information is necessary for the purposes described above; provided, however, that in each case such party has expressly agreed to
maintain such information in confidence under terms and conditions substantially identical to the terms of this Section 7.11. 
 The Trustee
agrees that the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities), as applicable, does not have any responsibility whatsoever for any reliance on Confidential Information by the Trustee or by any Person to whom such
information is disclosed in connection with this Indenture, whether related to the purposes described above or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee agrees that the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a
beneficial interest in the Securities), as applicable, makes no representation or warranty whatsoever to it with respect to Confidential Information or its suitability for such purposes. The Trustee further agrees that it shall not acquire any
rights against the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries or any employee, officer, director, manager, representative or agent of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities), as
applicable (together with the Issuer, “Confidential Parties”) as a result of the disclosure of Confidential Information to the Trustee and that no Confidential Party has any duty, responsibility, liability or obligation to any Person as a
result of any such disclosure. 
 In the event the Trustee is required to disclose any Confidential Information received hereunder in order
to comply with any laws, regulations or court orders, it may disclose such information only to the extent necessary for such compliance; provided, however, that it shall give the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the
Securities), as applicable, reasonable advance written notice of any court proceeding in which such disclosure may be required pursuant to a court order so as to afford the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the
Securities), as applicable, full and fair opportunity to oppose the issuance of such order and to appeal therefrom and shall cooperate reasonably with the Issuer or any Holder (or any holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities), as
applicable, in opposing such court order and in securing confidential treatment of any such information to be disclosed or obtaining a protective order narrowing the scope of such disclosure. 

Each of the Paying Agent and the Registrar agrees to be bound by this Section 7.11 to the same extent as the Trustee.

 ARTICLE 8 

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE 

SECTION 8.01. Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance. This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further
effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, as expressly provided for in this Indenture) as to all outstanding Securities when: 

(a) either (i) all the Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than Securities pursuant to Section 2.08 that
have been replaced or paid and Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid by the Issuer or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation or (ii) all of the Securities that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (a) have become due and payable, (b) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year or (c) if redeemable at the
option of the Issuer, are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer has irrevocably
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, and premium, if any, and
interest on, the Securities to the date of deposit, together with irrevocable instructions from the Issuer directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 

(b) the Issuer or the Guarantors have paid all other sums payable under this Indenture; and 

(c) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions
precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Issuer’s obligations in Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 6.07, 7.06 and 7.07 and in this Article 8 shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full. Thereafter, the
Issuer’s obligations in Sections 7.06, 8.05 and 8.06 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 
 (e) Subject to
Section 8.01(d) and Section 8.02, the Issuer at any time may terminate (i) all its obligations under the Securities and this Indenture (with respect to such Securities) (“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Sections
4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.10, 4.11, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18, 4.19 and 4.20 and the operation of Section 4.08, Section 5.01 and Sections 6.01(c), 6.01(d), 6.01(e) (with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer only),
6.01(f) (with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries of the Issuer only), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i), 6.01(j), 6.01(k) and 6.01(l) (“covenant defeasance option”). The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option notwithstanding its prior
exercise of its covenant defeasance option. In the event that the Issuer terminates all of its obligations under the Securities and this Indenture (with respect to such Securities) by exercising its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance
option, the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee of such Securities and the Security Documents shall be terminated simultaneously with the termination of such obligations. 

If the Issuer exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Securities so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of
Default. If the Issuer exercises its 

  
 100 








 
covenant defeasance option, payment of the Securities so defeased may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(c), 6.01(d), 6.01(e) (to the extent such Section
6.01(e) applies to Restricted Subsidiaries), 6.01(f) (to the extent such Section 6.01(f) applies to Restricted Subsidiaries), 6.01(g), 6.01(h), 6.01(i), 6.01(j), 6.01(k) or 6.01(l) or because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with Sections 4.13
and 5.01. 
 Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing
the discharge of those obligations that the Issuer terminates. 
 SECTION 8.02. Conditions to Defeasance. 

(a) The Issuer may exercise its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option only if: 

(i) the Issuer irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations or a
combination thereof in an amount sufficient, or U.S. Government Obligations, the principal of and the interest on which will be sufficient, or a combination thereof sufficient, to pay the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on the
Securities when due at maturity or redemption, as the case may be, including interest thereon to maturity or such redemption date; 

(ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a firm of independent accountants expressing its opinion that the
payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay principal,
premium, if any, and interest when due on all the Securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 
 (iii) 91 days
pass after the deposit is made and during the 91-day period no Default specified in Section 6.01(e) or Section 6.01(f) with respect to the Issuer occurs that is continuing at the end of the period; 

(iv) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement binding on the Issuer; 

(v) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of a tax counsel of
nationally recognized standing in the United States stating that (1) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the IRS a ruling, or (2) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal
income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of a tax counsel of nationally recognized standing in the United States shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income
tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; 

  
 101 








 (vi) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Issuer shall have
delivered to the Trustee an opinion of a tax counsel of nationally recognized standing in the United States to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and
defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; and 

(vii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Securities to be so defeased and discharged as contemplated by this Article 8 have been complied with. 

(b) Before or after a deposit, the Issuer may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of such
Securities at a future date in accordance with Article 3. 
 SECTION 8.03. Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in
trust money or U.S. Government Obligations (including proceeds thereof) deposited with it pursuant to this Article 8. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from U.S. Government Obligations through each Paying Agent and in accordance with
this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Securities so discharged or defeased. 
 SECTION 8.04. Repayment to
Issuer. Each of the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Issuer upon request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in this Article 8 that, in the written opinion of a firm of independent public
accountants recognized in the United States delivered to the Trustee (which delivery shall only be required if U.S. Government Obligations have been so deposited), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to
effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance in accordance with this Article 8. 
 Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the
Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer
for payment as general creditors, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies. 

SECTION 8.05. Indemnity for Government Obligations. The Issuer shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other
charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations. 

SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in
accordance with this Article 8 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any Governmental Authority 

  
 102 








 
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities so discharged or defeased shall be revived and reinstated
as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 8 until such time as the Trustee or any Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 8; provided,
however, that, if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of or interest on any such Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive
such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS 

SECTION 9.01. Without Consent of the Holders. Notwithstanding Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Collateral Agent, the Guarantors and the

(v) to add additional Guarantees with respect to the Securities and to release any Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance

does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder in any material respect; 
 (ix) to add additional assets as Notes
Collateral to secure the Securities; 

  
 103 








 (x) to release Notes Collateral from the Lien pursuant to this Indenture, the

(xi) to modify the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements (a) to secure additional extensions of credit and add

of Intercreditor Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D or (c) to add the Issuer or any Guarantor as a party to any Intercreditor Agreement to the extent such party Incurs any Secured Indebtedness that constitutes First Priority Lien Obligations in

(xii) to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary. 

Upon the request of the Issuer, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.05, the Trustee shall join with the
Issuer in the execution of 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 shall not be
obligated to enter into such modified or amended indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. After an amendment under this Section 9.01 becomes effective, the Issuer shall provide to the Holders a
written notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.01. 

SECTION 9.02. With Consent of the Holders. 

(a) The Issuer, the Collateral Agent, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Securities,
the Guarantees, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, and may waive any provision thereof (including any past default or compliance with any such provisions or the provisions of Section 4.08), with the written consent of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for the Securities). However, without the consent of each Holder of an
outstanding Security affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not: 
 (i) reduce the principal amount of Securities
whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment
of interest on any Security; 

  
 104 








 (iii) reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Security (or
the due date in respect of the payment of any installment of principal); 
 (iv) reduce the premium payable upon the
redemption of any Security or change the time at which any Security may be redeemed in accordance with Article 3; 
 (v)
make any Security payable in money other than that stated in such Security; 
 (vi) expressly subordinate the Securities or
any Guarantees in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor or adversely affect the priority of any Liens securing the Securities and the Guarantees, except as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement; 

(vii) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture entitling each Holder to receive payment of principal of or premium,
if any, and interest on such Holder’s Securities on or after the due dates (or the due date in respect of the payment of any installment of principal) therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such
Holder’s Securities; 
 (viii) eliminate or modify in any manner the obligations of a Guarantor with respect to its
Guarantee, that adversely affects the Holders in any material respect, except as contemplated by this Indenture; 
 (ix)
make any change in the provisions in this Indenture or the Intercreditor Agreements dealing with the application of proceeds of Notes Collateral that would adversely affect the Holders of the Securities; or 

(x) make any change in Section 6.04 or the second sentence of this Section 9.02. 

Without the consent of the Holders of at least two-thirds in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding or as otherwise
provided in this Indenture, the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, no amendment, supplement or waiver may release all or substantially all of the Notes Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture and the Security Documents with
respect to the Securities. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular
form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

(b) After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall provide to the Holders a written notice
briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.02. 

  
 105 








 SECTION 9.03. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. 

(a) A consent to an amendment, supplement or a waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent
Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent, supplement or waiver is not made on the Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent
Holder may revoke the consent, supplement or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate from the
Issuer certifying that the requisite principal amount of Securities have consented. After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective upon the (i) receipt by
the Issuer or the Trustee of consents by the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Securities, (ii) satisfaction of conditions to effectiveness as set forth in this Indenture and any indenture supplemental hereto containing such amendment,
supplement or waiver, (iii) execution of such amendment or waiver (or supplemental indenture) by the Issuer and the Trustee and (iv) delivery to the Trustee of the Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel required under Article 12. 

(b) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to
give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding Section 9.03(a), those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or
their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such
consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. 
 SECTION 9.04. Notation on or Exchange of
Securities. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Issuer may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the
changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to
make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 SECTION
9.05. Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it
does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity satisfactory to it and shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Issuer and the Guarantors, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03). 

  
 106 








 SECTION 9.06. Payment for Consent. Neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer
shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or
the Securities unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 

SECTION 9.07. Additional Voting Terms; Calculation of Principal Amount. All Securities issued under this Indenture shall vote and
consent together on all matters (as to which any of such Securities may vote) as one class. Determinations as to whether Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent shall be
made in accordance with this Article 9 and Section 2.14. 
 ARTICLE 10 

GUARANTEES 
 SECTION
10.01. Guarantees. 
 (a) Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees as a
primary obligor and not merely as a surety on a senior basis to each Holder, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and their respective successors and assigns (i) the full and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, by
redemption or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture (including obligations to the Trustee) and the Securities, whether for payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities and all other monetary
obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Securities, and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuer, whether for fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise under this
Indenture and the Securities (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). 

(b) Each Guarantor further agrees that (to the extent permitted by law) the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed,
in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from each such Guarantor, and that each such Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article 10 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation. The Guaranteed Obligations
of a Guarantor will be secured by security interests (subject to Permitted Liens) in the Notes Collateral owned by such Guarantor to the extent provided for in the Security Documents and as required pursuant to Sections 4.11 and 4.13. 

(c) Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any
Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other Person under this Indenture, the Securities, any Security Document, or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii)
any extension or renewal of this Indenture, the Securities, any Security Document or any other agreement; 

  
 107 








 
(iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities, any Security Document or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any
security held by any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent for the Guaranteed Obligations or any Guarantor; (v) the failure of any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the
Guaranteed Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of such Guarantor, except as provided in Section 10.02(c). 
 (d)
Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have its obligations hereunder divided among the Guarantors, such that such Guarantor’s obligations would be less than the full amount claimed. Each Guarantor hereby waives
any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Issuer or any other Guarantor first be used and depleted as payment of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid
by such Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to require that the Issuer be sued prior to an action being initiated against such Guarantor. For the avoidance of doubt, each Guarantor irrevocably and
unconditionally waives any right it may have under Jersey law by virtue of the droit de discussion or droit de division. 

(e) Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when
due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

(f) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01 and 10.02, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject
to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination
whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or
otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Securities, any Security Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or
modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing that may or might in any manner or to any
extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. 

(g) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01 and 10.02, each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full
force and effect until payment in full of its Guaranteed Obligations. Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01 and 10.02, each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise. 

  
 108 








 (h) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that
any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due,
whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee in accordance with this
Indenture, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such
Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by applicable law) and (iii) all other monetary obligations of the Issuer then due to the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

(i) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of
any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, on the other hand, (i) the
maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of any Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the
Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and
payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 10.01. 
 (j) Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs
and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01. 

(k) Each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary
or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 10.02. Limitation on Liability. 

(a) Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on
behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, can be guaranteed hereby without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such
Guarantor, void or voidable under applicable laws relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally or, in the case of Quotient Suisse or any other Swiss Obligor, applicable Swiss
corporate law. 

  
 109 








 (b) If and to the extent that a Swiss Obligor is liable under this Indenture or
the Securities for obligations of any other obligor (other than the wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiaries of such Swiss Obligor) and if complying with such obligation would constitute a repayment of capital
(Einlagerückgewähr), a violation of the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschützte Reserven) or the payment of a constructive dividend (verdeckte Gewinnausschüttung) by such Swiss Obligor or would
otherwise be restricted under Swiss mandatory law and accounting principles then applicable (the “Restricted Obligations”), such Swiss Obligor’s liability will be limited to the amount of such Swiss Obligor’s freely disposable
equity in accordance with Swiss law and Swiss accounting principles (the “Swiss Available Amount”). 
 The limitation in this
Section 10.02(b) shall only apply to the extent that it constitutes a requirement under Swiss mandatory legal and accounting principles at the time a Swiss Obligor is required to perform the Restricted Obligations. Such limitation will not free such
Swiss Obligor from its obligations in excess of the Swiss Available Amount, but will merely postpone the performance date thereof until such time(s) when such performance is again permitted from a Swiss legal and Swiss accounting point of view. 

If the enforcement of the obligations of a Swiss Obligor would be limited due to the effects referred to in this Indenture, such Swiss Obligor
shall further, to the extent permitted by applicable law and accounting principles and upon request by the Trustee, promptly (i) transfer statutory reserves into unrestricted, distributable reserves, (ii) write up or realize any of its assets that
are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets, in case of realization, however, only if such assets are not necessary for such Swiss Obligor’s business (nicht
betriebsnotwendig) and such sale is permitted under this Indenture and the Security Documents and (iii) take all other measures necessary or useful to allow the Trustee to obtain the maximum benefit under this guarantee. 

Such Swiss Obligor shall, and any holding company of such Swiss Obligor that is a party to this Indenture shall procure that such Swiss
Obligor shall, take and cause to be taken all and any action as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event within 40 days from the request of the Trustee, including (i) the passing of any shareholders’ resolutions to approve any payment or
other performance under this Indenture or any of the Security Documents, (ii) the provision of an up-to-date audited interim balance sheet, (iii) the provision of a determination by such Swiss Obligor of the Swiss Available Amount based on such
audited interim balance sheet, (iv) the provision of a confirmation from the auditors of such Swiss Obligor that the payment in an amount corresponding to the Swiss Available Amount or the performance of other obligations is in compliance with the
provisions of Swiss corporate law that are aimed at protecting the share capital and legal reserves and (v) the obtaining of any other confirmations which may be necessary or useful as a matter of Swiss mandatory law in force at the time of
enforcement, in order to allow a prompt payment or performance of other obligations with a minimum of limitations. 
 If Swiss Withholding
Tax is required to be deducted from any payment under this Indenture or the Security Documents, including but not limited to, any guarantee payment and any payment of proceeds of any enforcement under applicable law at the time of enforcement, the
relevant Swiss Obligor: 
 (i) shall use its best efforts to ensure that the proceeds of any enforcement can be paid without
deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax, or with deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax at a reduced rate, by discharging the liability to such tax by notification pursuant to applicable law (including tax treaties) rather than payment of the tax (the
“Swiss Notification Procedure”); 

  
 110 








 (ii) shall deduct the Swiss Withholding Tax at such rate (being 35% on the date
hereof) as in force from time to time if the Swiss Notification Procedure does not apply; or shall deduct the Swiss Withholding Tax at the reduced rate resulting after discharge of part of such tax by notification if the Swiss Notification Procedure
applies for a part of the Swiss Withholding Tax only; and shall pay within the time allowed any such taxes deducted to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration; and 

(iii) shall promptly notify the respective beneficiary or beneficiaries that such notification or, as the case may be,
deduction has been made, and provide the respective beneficiary or beneficiaries with evidence that such a notification of the Swiss Federal Tax Administration has been made or, as the case may be, such taxes deducted have been paid to the Swiss
Federal Tax Administration. 
 In the case of a deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax, the Swiss Obligor shall use its best efforts to ensure
that any person that is entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment under this Indenture or the Securities, will, as soon as possible after such deduction: request a refund of the Swiss Withholding
Tax under applicable law (including tax treaties), and pay to the respective beneficiary or beneficiaries upon receipt any amount so refunded. 

The respective beneficiary or beneficiaries shall co-operate with the Swiss Obligor to secure such refund. To the extent such a deduction is
made, any Swiss Obligor shall not be obliged to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 4.01(c) or otherwise hold harmless the beneficiary or the beneficiaries in relation to any such deduction. 

To the extent such Swiss Obligor is required to deduct Swiss Withholding Tax pursuant to this Indenture, and if the Swiss Available Amount is
not fully utilized, such Swiss Obligor shall be required to pay, directly or by way of use of the proceeds of enforcement, an additional amount so that after making any required deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax the aggregate net amount paid to the
beneficiary, directly or by way of use of the proceeds of enforcement, is equal to the amount which would have been paid if no deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax had been required. If a refund is made to a beneficiary, such beneficiary shall
transfer the refund so received to the Swiss Obligor, subject to any right of set-off of such beneficiary pursuant to this Indenture or the other Finance Documents and subject to not being in a less favorable net after-tax position than the
beneficiary would have been in if the Swiss Withholding Tax had not been required in the first instance. 

  
 111 








 (c) A Guarantee as to any Guarantor shall terminate and be of no further force or
effect and such Guarantor shall be deemed to be automatically released from all obligations under this Article 10 upon: 

(i) the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of
the Capital Stock of the applicable Guarantor if (i) such sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer is made to a Person who is not the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary in a manner not in violation of this Indenture and (ii) after giving effect
to such sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer, such Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (ii) the
Issuer designating such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 4.04 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”; or 

(iii) the Issuer’s exercise of the Issuer’s legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option in accordance with
Section 8.01 or if the obligations of the Issuer and such Guarantor under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. 

SECTION 10.03. Successors and Assigns. This Article 10 shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall
inure to the benefit of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders and their successors and assigns and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder, the Collateral Agent or the Trustee, the rights and privileges
conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Securities shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture. 

SECTION 10.04. No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Holders in exercising
any right, power or privilege under this Article 10 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the
Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits that any of them may have under this Article 10 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. 

SECTION 10.05. Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article 10, nor the consent to any departure
by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No
notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. 

SECTION 10.06. Execution of Supplemental Indenture for Future Guarantors. Each Person that is required to become a Guarantor after the
Issue Date pursuant to Section 4.10 shall promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit C hereto pursuant to which such Person shall become a Guarantor under this Article 10 and shall 

  
 112 








 
guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an
Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Person and that, subject to the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer
and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and to the principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, the Guarantee of such Guarantor is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor,
enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms or to such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request. 
 SECTION
10.07. No Impairment. The failure to endorse a Guarantee on any Security shall not affect or impair the validity thereof. If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or the notation of Guarantee no longer holds that office at the
time the Trustee authenticates such Security, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 
 ARTICLE 11 

SECURITY DOCUMENTS 

SECTION 11.01. Collateral and Security Documents. The due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on the Securities when
and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an Payment Date, at Stated Maturity, or by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Securities and performance of all other
Guaranteed Obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors to the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under this Indenture, the Securities, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, according to the terms hereunder or
thereunder, shall be secured as provided in the Security Documents, which define the terms of the Liens that secure the Guaranteed Obligations, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements. The Trustee and the Issuer hereby acknowledge and
agree that the Collateral Agent holds the Notes Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements. Each Holder, by accepting a Security,
appoints U.S. Bank National Association as Collateral Agent and consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Notes Collateral) and the
Intercreditor Agreements as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their respective terms and this Indenture, and authorizes and directs the Trustee to enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor
Agreements and to bind the Holders to the terms thereof and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (if it is not then also appointed and serving as Collateral
Agent) copies of all documents delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents, and will do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be reasonably required by the next sentence of this Section 11.01, to assure and
confirm to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent the Liens on the Notes Collateral contemplated hereby, by the Security Documents or by any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render the same available for the security and
benefit of this Indenture and of the Securities secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein expressed. The Issuer shall take, and shall cause the Guarantors to take, any and all actions reasonably required to cause the Security
Documents to create and maintain at all times, as 

  
 113 








 
security for the Obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereunder, a valid and enforceable perfected Lien on all of the Notes Collateral (subject to the terms of the Security Documents and
the Intercreditor Agreements), in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders under the Security Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or any of the Security Documents, in no event
shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for, or have any duty or obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or maintenance of the security interests or other Liens intended to be created by this
Indenture or the Security Documents (including the filing or continuation of any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments), nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for, and the Collateral Agent makes no
representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the Security Documents or the security interests or other Liens intended to be created thereby. 

SECTION 11.02. Release of Collateral. 

(a) Subject to Section 11.02(b) and 11.03, the Notes Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest created by
the Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or as provided by Section 11.08 or by this Section 11.02(a). The Issuer and the Guarantors will be
entitled to a release of assets included in the Notes Collateral from the Liens securing the Securities, and the Trustee shall release, or instruct the Collateral Agent to release, as applicable, the same from such Liens at the Issuer’s sole
cost and expense, under one or more of the following circumstances: 
 (i) to enable the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary
to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the Notes Collateral to any Person other than the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer (but excluding any transaction subject to Article 5 where the recipient is required to become the
obligor on the Securities or a Guarantee) to the extent permitted or not prohibited by this Indenture, including Section 4.06; 

(ii) in the case of a Guarantor that is released from its Guarantee with respect to the Securities in accordance with this
Indenture, the release of the Capital Stock (to the extent transferred to a party other than an Issuer or a Guarantor in a transaction not prohibited under Section 4.06) and property and assets of such Guarantor; provided, however, that if the
Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries retains any Capital Stock of the applicable Guarantor following a sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor, the Liens on such retained Capital Stock shall not be
released; 
 (iii) in respect of the property and assets of a Restricted Subsidiary, upon the designation of such Restricted
Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 4.04 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”; 

(iv) in respect of the ABL Collateral (x) to the extent any first-priority liens on such ABL Collateral are released by the
First Lien Agent in connection 

  
 114 








 
with a disposition of ABL Collateral to the extent permitted or not prohibited under Section 4.06 (except with respect to any proceeds of such disposition that remain after satisfaction in full
of the First Priority Lien Obligations secured by such ABL Collateral) or (y) in accordance with an Intercreditor Agreement; or 

(v) pursuant to an amendment, supplement or waiver in accordance with Article 9. 

Notwithstanding the existence of any Event of Default, the junior lien on the ABL Collateral securing the Securities shall terminate and be
released automatically to the extent the first-priority liens on the ABL Collateral are released by the First Lien Agent in connection with a sale, transfer or disposition of ABL Collateral that is either not prohibited under this Indenture or
occurs in connection with the foreclosure of, or other exercise of remedies with respect to, such ABL Collateral by the First Lien Agent (except with respect to any proceeds of such sale, transfer or disposition that remain after satisfaction in
full of the First Priority Lien Obligations). 
 Upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate certifying that all conditions precedent
under this Indenture and the Security Documents, if any, to such release have been met and any necessary or proper (as determined by the Issuer) instruments of termination, satisfaction or release have been prepared by the Issuer, the Collateral
Agent shall execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Issuer’s expense) such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Notes Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Security Documents or the
Intercreditor Agreements. 
 (b) At any time when a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
maturity of the Securities has been accelerated (whether by declaration or otherwise) and the Trustee (if not then also appointed and serving as Collateral Agent) has delivered a notice of acceleration to the Collateral Agent, no release of Notes
Collateral pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or the Security Documents will be effective as against the Holders, except as otherwise provided in the Intercreditor Agreements. 

SECTION 11.03. Permitted Releases Not To Impair Lien. The release of any Notes Collateral from the terms hereof and of the Security
Documents or the release of, in whole or in part, the Liens created by the Security Documents, will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Notes Collateral or
Liens are released pursuant to (x) the applicable Security Documents and the terms of this Article 11 or (y) the Intercreditor Agreements. Each of the Holders acknowledges that a release of Notes Collateral or a Lien in accordance with the terms of
the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and of this Article 11 will not be deemed for any purpose to be in contravention of the terms of this Indenture. 

SECTION 11.04. Suits To Protect the Collateral. Subject to the provisions of Article 7 and the Intercreditor Agreements,
the Trustee in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, may or may direct the Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to: 

(a) enforce any of the terms of the Security Documents; and 

(b) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Issuer hereunder. 

  
 115 








 Subject to the provisions of the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee
shall have the power (but not the obligation) to institute and to maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Notes Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of any of the Security
Documents or this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Notes 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 Lien on the Notes Collateral or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or the Trustee). 

SECTION 11.05. Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Security Documents. Subject to the provisions
of the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee is authorized (a) to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under the Security Documents and (b)to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions
of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 11.06. Purchaser Protected. In no event shall any purchaser in good faith of any property purported to
be released hereunder be bound to ascertain the authority of the Collateral Agent or the Trustee to execute the release or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority or to
see to the application of any consideration given by such purchaser or other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any property or rights permitted by this Article 11 to be sold be under any obligation to ascertain or inquire
into the authority of the Issuer or the applicable Guarantor to make any such sale or other transfer. 
 SECTION 11.07. Powers
Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee. In case the Notes Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 11 upon the Issuer or a Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or
other disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Issuer or a Guarantor or of any officer or officers
thereof required by the provisions of this Article 11; and if the Trustee shall be in the possession of the Notes Collateral under any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee. 

SECTION 11.08. Release Upon Termination of the Issuer’s Obligations. In the event that the Issuer
delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate certifying that (i) payment in full of the principal of, together with premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Securities and all other Obligations with respect to the Securities
under this Indenture, the Guarantees and the Security Documents that are due and payable at or prior to the time such principal, together with premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest, if any), are paid, (ii)
all the Obligations under this Indenture, the Securities and the Security Documents have been satisfied and discharged by complying with the provisions of

Article 8 or (iii) the Issuer shall have exercised its legal defeasance option or its covenant defeasance option, in each case in compliance with the provisions of Article 8, the Trustee shall
deliver to the Issuer and the Collateral Agent a notice stating that the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders, disclaims and gives up any and all rights it has in or to the Notes Collateral (other than with respect to funds held by the Trustee pursuant
to Article 8), and any rights it has under the Security Documents, and upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of such notice, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to hold a Lien in the Notes Collateral on behalf of the Trustee and shall do or
cause to be done all acts reasonably requested by the Issuer to release such Lien as soon as is reasonably practicable. 
 SECTION 11.09.
Collateral Agent. 
 (a) U.S. Bank National Association shall initially act as Collateral Agent and shall be
authorized to appoint co-Collateral Agents as necessary in its sole discretion. Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Notes Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Notes Collateral upon the
request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Notes Collateral or any part thereof. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the
Security Documents, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Indenture, in the
Intercreditor Agreements and in the Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder, the Issuer or any
Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents or shall otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” or “Agent” in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended
to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between independent contracting parties. The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction). 

(b) The Collateral Agent is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the Security Documents, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor
Agreements, (iii) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and (iv) perform and observe its obligations under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements. 

  
 117 








 (c) If the Issuer or any Guarantors Incur any obligations in respect of any First
Priority Lien Obligations at any time when no intercreditor agreement with respect thereto is in effect or at any time when Indebtedness constituting First Priority Lien Obligations entitled to the benefit of an existing intercreditor agreement is
concurrently retired, the Issuer shall deliver to the Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate so stating and requesting the Collateral Agent to enter into an Intercreditor Agreement in favor of a designated agent or representative for the
holders of the First Priority Lien Obligations so Incurred, and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall (and are hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such Intercreditor Agreement, bind the Holders on the terms set forth therein and
perform and observe their obligations thereunder. 
 (d) The Collateral Agent shall act pursuant to the instructions of the
Holders and the Trustee with respect to the Security Documents and the Notes Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall have no discretion under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents and shall
not be required to make or give any determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of the requisite Holders or the Trustee, as applicable. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee may direct the
Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements. 

(e) The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default,
unless the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee, a Holder or the Issuer referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The
Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities subject to this Article 11. 

(f) No provision of this Indenture or any Security Document shall require the Collateral Agent (or the Trustee) to expend or
risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders (or
the Trustee in the case of the Collateral Agent) if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds is not assured to it. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements
or the Security Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Notes Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be
required to commence any such action, exercise any remedy, inspect or conduct any studies of any property or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the
presence at, or release on or from, the Notes Collateral or such property of any hazardous substances unless the Collateral Agent has received security or indemnity from the Holders in an amount and in a form all satisfactory to the Collateral Agent
in its sole discretion, protecting the Collateral Agent from all such liability. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this Section 11.09 (f) if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity,
security or undertaking from the Issuer or the Holders to be sufficient. 

  
 118 








 (g) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible in any manner to any of the
Trustee or any Holder for the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or for any failure of the Issuer, any Guarantor or any other party to this
Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to the Trustee or any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance
or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Indenture, the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Issuer or the Guarantors. 

(h) The parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that the Collateral Agent shall not assume, be responsible
for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including
any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any
environmental law as a result of this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements or the Security Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto or thereto. Further, the parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that, in the exercise
of its rights under this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreements and the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent may hold or obtain indicia of ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Notes Collateral and
that any such actions taken by the Collateral Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such Notes Collateral. 

(i) Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Issuer signed by two Officers pursuant to this Section
11.09(i) (a “Security Document Order”), the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any Security Document to be executed
after the Issue Date. Such Security Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Security Document Order referred to in, this Section 11.09(i) and (ii) instruct the Collateral Agent to
execute and enter into such Security Document. Any such execution of a Security Document shall be at the direction and expense of the Issuer, upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating
that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of such Security Document have been satisfied. The Holders, by their acceptance of the Securities, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to execute such Security Documents. 

(j) The Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal shall be governed by provisions equivalent to Section 7.07(a), Section
7.07(b), Section 7.07(c), Section 7.07(d) and Section 7.07(f). 
 (k) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all of the
protections, immunities, indemnities, rights and privileges of the Trustee set forth in this Indenture, and all such protections, immunities, indemnities, rights and privileges shall apply to the Collateral Agent in its roles under any Security
Document or the Intercreditor Agreements, whether or not expressly stated therein. 

  
 119 








 (l) In relation to the Swiss Security Documents the following additional
provisions shall apply: 
 (i) The Collateral Agent holds: 

(A) any security created or expressed to be created under or pursuant to the Swiss Security Documents by way of a security
assignment (Sicherungsabtretung) or transfer for security purposes (Sicherungsübereignung) or any other non-accessory (nicht akzessorische) security; 

(B) the benefit of this Section 11.09(l); and 

(C) any proceeds and other benefits of such security as fiduciary (treuhänderisch) in its own name but for the
account of any Holder of Securities, the Trustee and any other Secured Party (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) which have the benefit of such security in accordance with the Finance Documents and the respective Swiss Security Documents; 

(ii) each Holder of Securities, the Trustee and any other Secured Party (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) hereby
authorizes the Collateral Agent: 
 (A) to accept and execute as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter)
any Swiss law pledge or any other Swiss law accessory (akzessorische) security created or expressed to be created under or pursuant to the Swiss Security Documents for the benefit of such Holder of Securities, the Trustee and any other
Secured Party (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) and hold, administer and, if necessary, enforce any such security on behalf of each relevant Secured Party (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) which has the benefit of such security; 

(B) to agree as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) to amendments and alterations to any Swiss Security
Documents which creates a pledge or any other Swiss law accessory (akzessorische) security; 
 (C) to effect as its
direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) any release of a security created under the Swiss Security Documents in accordance with this Indenture; and 

(D) to exercise as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) such other rights granted to the Collateral
Agent hereunder or under the relevant Swiss Security Documents; and 

  
 120 








 (iii) the Issuer and each Guarantor hereby authorize the Collateral Agent, when
acting in its capacity as creditor of the Parallel Debt claims as set forth in Section 11.10, to hold: 
 (A) any Swiss law
pledge or any other Swiss law accessory (akzessorische) security; 
 (B) any proceeds of such security; and 

(C) the benefit of this Section 11.09(l) and of the Parallel Debt claims, as creditor in its own right but for the benefit of
the Holders of Securities, the Trustee or any other Secured Party (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) in accordance with this Indenture. 

SECTION 11.10. Parallel Debt. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, and solely for the purpose of security
granted under the Swiss Security Documents, the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertake (by way of an abstract acknowledgment of debt (abstraktes Schuldanerkenntnis)) to pay to the Collateral
Agent as creditor in its own right, and not as a representative of the Holders of Securities or the Trustee, amounts equal to any amounts owing from time to time by such obligor to any Holder of Securities, the Trustee and any other Secured Party
(as defined in the Collateral Agreement), this Indenture, the Securities or any other Indenture Document (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) (the “Finance Documents”) as and when, and in the currency of, those amounts are due for
payment under the Finance Documents.  
 The Issuer and each Guarantor acknowledge that their obligations under this Section 11.10
are several and are separate and independent from, and shall not in any way limit or affect, the corresponding obligations of such obligor to any Holder of Securities, the Trustee and any other Secured Party (as defined in the Collateral Agreement),
as applicable (its “Corresponding Debt”), nor shall the amounts for which the Issuer and each Guarantor is liable under this Section 11.10 (its “Parallel Debt”) be limited or affected in any way by its Corresponding Debt;
provided, that, (i) the Parallel Debt shall be decreased to the extent that its Corresponding Debt has been irrevocably paid or discharged; and (ii) the Corresponding Debt of the Issuer and each Guarantor shall be decreased to the extent that its
Parallel Debt has been irrevocably paid or discharged, but further provided that the Corresponding Debt shall not be decreased, if it is effected by virtue of any set-off, counterclaim or similar defense invoked by the Issuer or a Guarantor
vis-à-vis the Trustee. 
 The Collateral Agent acts in its own name and not as a trustee, and its claims in respect of the Parallel
Debt shall not be held in trust. The Liens granted under the Finance Documents to the Collateral Agent to secure the Parallel Debt is granted to the Collateral Agent in its capacity as creditor of the Parallel Debt and shall not be held in trust.

 All monies received or recovered by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 11.10 and all amounts received or recovered by the
Collateral Agent from or by the enforcement of any security interest granted to secure the Parallel Debt, shall be applied in accordance with the Finance Documents. 

  
 121 








 Without limiting or affecting the Collateral Agent’s rights against the Issuer or the
Guarantors the Issuer and each Guarantor acknowledges that (i) nothing in this Section 11.10 shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent to advance any sum to the Issuer or the Guarantors or otherwise under the Finance Documents, except
in its capacity as Holder of Securities (if applicable); and (ii) for the purpose of any vote taken any Finance Document, the Collateral Agent shall not be regarded as having any participation or commitment other than those which it has in its
capacity as a Holder of Securities (if applicable).

 123

YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT LOCAL LAW GOVERNS THE CREATION, PERFECTION, PRIORITY OR ENFORCEMENT OF SECURITY
INTERESTS. The Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and, by its acceptance of a Security, each Holder (and holder of beneficial interests in a Security) hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts of competent
jurisdiction in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby. To the extent that the Issuer or any Guarantor may in any jurisdiction
claim for itself or its assets immunity (to the extent such immunity may now or hereafter exist, whether on the grounds of sovereign immunity or otherwise) from suit, execution, attachment (whether in aid of execution, before judgment or otherwise)
or other legal process (whether through service of notice or otherwise), and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed to itself or its assets such immunity (whether or not claimed), such Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable,
irrevocably agrees with respect to any matter arising under this Indenture for the benefit of the Holders not to claim, and irrevocably waives, such immunity to the full extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction.

for issuance of the Securities. 

  
 124 








 SECTION 12.09. Successors. All agreements of the Issuer and each Guarantor in this
Indenture and the Securities shall bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors. 

SECTION 12.10. Multiple Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original,
but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and
delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all
purposes. 
 SECTION 12.11. Table of Contents; Headings and Sections. The table of contents and headings of the Articles and Sections
of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

provision of this Indenture, such provision of this Indenture shall control.

this Indenture shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such

 SECTION 12.14. Currency of Account; Conversion of Currency; Currency Exchange
Restrictions. 
 (a) U.S. Dollars are the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Issuer and the
Guarantors under or in connection with the Securities, the Guarantees and this Indenture, including damages related thereto. Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than U.S. Dollars by a Holder (whether as a result of, or as a result
of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Issuer or otherwise) in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Issuer or a Guarantor shall only constitute a discharge
to the Issuer or any such Guarantor to the extent of the U.S. Dollar amount, which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not
practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so). If that U.S. Dollar amount is less than the U.S. Dollar amount expressed to be due to the recipient under the applicable Securities, the Issuer
and the Guarantors shall indemnify it against any loss sustained by it as a result as set forth in Section 12.14(b). In any event, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase. For the
purposes of this Section 12.14, it will be sufficient for the Holder of a Security to certify in a satisfactory manner (indicating sources of information used) that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of U.S. Dollars been made with
the amount so received in that other currency on the date of receipt or recovery 

  
 125 








 
(or, if a purchase of U.S. Dollars on such date had not been practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable, it being required that the need for a change of date be
certified in the manner mentioned above). 
 (b) The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, covenant and agree
that the following provisions shall apply to conversion of currency in the case of the Securities, the Guarantees and this Indenture: 

(i) The following apply: 

(A) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in, or enforcing the judgment of, any court in any country, it becomes necessary
to convert into a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in any other currency (the “Base Currency”), then the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which the
judgment is given or the order of enforcement is made, as the case may be (unless a court shall otherwise determine). 
 (B)
If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given or an order of enforcement is made, as the case may be (or such other date as a court shall determine), and the date of
receipt of the amount due, the Issuer and the Guarantors will pay such additional (or, as the case may be, such lesser) amount, if any, as may be necessary so that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency when converted at the rate of exchange
prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount in the Base Currency originally due. 
 (ii) In the event of the
winding-up of the Issuer or any Guarantor at any time while any amount or damages owing under the Securities, the Guarantees and this Indenture, or any judgment or order rendered in respect thereof, shall remain outstanding, the Issuer and the
Guarantors shall indemnify and hold the Holders and the Trustee harmless against any deficiency arising or resulting from any variation in rates of exchange between (1) the date as of which the non-U.S. currency equivalent of the amount due or
contingently due under the Securities, the Guarantees and this Indenture (other than under this subsection (b)(ii)) is calculated for the purposes of such winding-up and (2) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in such winding-up. For
the purpose of this subsection (b)(ii), the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in the winding-up of the Issuer or any Guarantor shall be the date fixed by the liquidator or otherwise in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable
law as being the latest practicable date as at which liabilities of the Issuer or such Guarantor may be ascertained for such winding-up prior to payment by the liquidator or otherwise in respect thereto. 

(c) The obligations contained in subsections (a), (b)(i)(B) and (b)(ii) of this Section 12.14 shall constitute separate and
independent obligations from the other obligations 

  
 126 








 
of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this Indenture, shall give rise to separate and independent causes of action against the Issuer and the Guarantors, shall apply irrespective of any waiver
or extension granted by any Holder or the Trustee or either of them from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order or the filing of any proof of claim in the winding-up of the Issuer or any
Guarantor for a liquidated sum in respect of amounts due hereunder (other than under subsection (b)(ii) above) or under any such judgment or order. Any such deficiency as aforesaid shall be deemed to constitute a loss suffered by the Holders or the
Trustee, as the case may be, and no proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required by the Issuer or any Guarantor or the liquidator or otherwise or any of them. In the case of subsection (b)(ii) above, the amount of such deficiency shall not
be deemed to be reduced by any variation in rates of exchange occurring between the said final date and the date of any liquidating distribution. 

(d) The term “rate(s) of exchange” shall mean the rate of exchange quoted by Reuters at 10:00 a.m. (New York City
time) for spot purchases of the Base Currency with the Judgment Currency other than the Base Currency referred to in subsections (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above and includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable. 

SECTION 12.15. Intercreditor Agreement Governs. 

(a) The terms of this Indenture are subject to the Intercreditor Agreements. Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Security, (i)
consents to the subordination of Liens provided for in the Intercreditor Agreements, (ii) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements and (iii) authorizes and instructs the
Trustee to enter into the Intercreditor Agreements and the Collateral Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreements as Noteholder Collateral Agent (as defined therein) and to bind such Holder to the terms thereof, and, in each case, on behalf of
such Holder. The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to the other lenders to the Issuer or any Guarantors acting as a secured party under the Intercreditor Agreements to extend credit and such lenders are intended third party
beneficiaries of such provisions and the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements. Pursuant to the authorization of each Holder, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent hereby agree to enter into Intercreditor Agreements substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit D from time to time upon the request of the Issuer, when accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel confirming compliance with all conditions precedent set forth herein. To the extent the
provisions of this Indenture conflict or are inconsistent with the Intercreditor Agreements, each Holder (by accepting a Security), the Trustee and the Collateral Agent consents and agrees that the Intercreditor Agreements will control. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in this Indenture or in any Security Document or any ABL Document (as such
term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreements), the Issuer and the Guarantors shall not be required to act or refrain from acting (i) pursuant to this Indenture or any Security Document solely with respect to any ABL Collateral in any manner that
would cause a default under any ABL Document, or (ii) pursuant to any ABL Document solely with respect to any Noteholder First Lien Collateral in any manner that would cause a default under this Indenture or any Security Document. For avoidance of
doubt, and for the purposes of this paragraph only, the terms Security Document and ABL Document do not include the Intercreditor Agreements. 

  
 127 








 SECTION 12.16. Tax Matters. 

(a) The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Securities will be issued, with the intention that, for all tax purposes, the
Securities will qualify as indebtedness. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Holder and beneficial owner of Securities, agree to treat the Securities as indebtedness for all tax purposes. 

(b) The Issuer shall instruct DTC to code interest on the Securities held by DTC as “foreign source” income.

interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(c) The Securities will mature on October 15, 2023. 

(d) This Security is one of a series of Securities that may be authenticated and delivered for original issue under the
Indenture referred to below in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $120,000,000, consisting of (i) an aggregate principal amount of $84,000,000 of Securities issued on the Issue Date (the “Original Securities”) and (ii) up to an
additional aggregate principal amount of $36,000,000 of Securities issuable thereafter in accordance with Section 2.01(c) of the Indenture (“Additional Securities”). On each Payment Date, commencing April 15, 2019, or on the succeeding

described in the following paragraph) in an amount equal to the amount obtained by multiplying the principal amount of such Additional Securities outstanding immediately prior to such payment by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the amount
of the installment of principal of the Original Securities corresponding to such Payment Date (as it may have been previously reduced in accordance with the following paragraph) and the denominator shall be the aggregate unpaid outstanding principal
balance of the Original Securities immediately prior to such payment. 
 In the event that there shall have been any partial redemption or
purchase of the Securities pursuant to Article 3 or Section 4.06 or 4.08 of the Indenture, each principal installment amount set forth above (as it may have been previously reduced in accordance with this paragraph) subsequent to such partial
redemption or purchase shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount obtained by multiplying such principal installment amount as in effect immediately prior to such partial redemption or purchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be
the aggregate principal amount of Securities redeemed or purchased pursuant to such partial redemption or purchase and the denominator shall be the aggregate unpaid outstanding principal balance of the Securities immediately prior to such partial
redemption or purchase. Any such reduction shall be made on a pro rata basis, as nearly as practicable, among the Holders of the Securities, subject, however, to the applicable procedures of DTC.

and payments of installments of principal to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the related Payment Date even if Securities are canceled after such Record Date and on or before
such Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day). Holders must surrender Securities to the Paying Agent to collect principal payments (other than payments of installments of principal). The Issuer shall pay principal, premium, if any, and interest
in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. {Payments in respect of the Securities (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company or any successor depositary.}1 {The Issuer shall make all payments in respect of the Securities (including
principal, premium, if any, and interest) at the office of the Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided,
however, that payments on the Securities may also be made, in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United
States if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date
as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).}2

The Securities are senior secured obligations of the Issuer. This Security is one of the Securities referred to in the Indenture. The

such Restricted Subsidiaries, enter into or permit certain transactions with Affiliates, create or incur Liens and make Asset Sales. The Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Issuer and each Guarantor to consolidate or merge with
or into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of their property. 
 To guarantee the due and punctual
payment of the principal of and interest on the Securities and all other amounts payable by the Issuer under the Indenture and the Securities when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according
to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, the Guarantors have, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed the Guaranteed Obligations on a senior secured basis pursuant to the terms of the Indenture. 

 

	5.	Optional Redemption 

 The Issuer may redeem the Securities at its option, in whole at any time
or in part from time to time, on any Business Day specified by the Issuer prior to October 14, 2018 (the “First Call Date”), on not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice delivered


  
 A-5 








 
to each Holder, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the
redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Payment Date). 

The Issuer may redeem the Securities at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on any Business Day specified by the
Issuer on or after the First Call Date, on not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice delivered to each Holder, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of outstanding principal amount of the
Securities being redeemed), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Payment Date), for the following periods: 

 

					
	 Period
	  	Redemption Price	 
	 From and including the First Call Date to and including October 13, 2019

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any tender offer for all of the outstanding Securities at a
price of at least 100% of the principal amount of the Securities tendered, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the applicable tender settlement date, if holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Securities validly tender and do not withdraw such Securities in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by
such holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Holders (with a copy to the Trustee), given not more than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem all
Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price offered to each other holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon,
to, but excluding, the redemption date. 
 Notice of any redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more
conditions precedent, including the receipt by the Trustee, on or prior to the redemption date, of money sufficient to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, the Securities being redeemed. 

 

	6.	Notice of Redemption 

 Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 5, written notice of redemption
pursuant to paragraph 5 will be provided at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed. Securities in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole
multiples of $1,000. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with a Paying Agent on or before the redemption date
and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date, interest ceases to accrue on such Securities (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

cause the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal balance thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of
the Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the related Payment Date), as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. 

In accordance with, and subject to the terms of, Section 4.06 of the Indenture, the Issuer will be required to offer to purchase Securities
upon the occurrence of certain Asset Sale events. 
  

	9.	Security 

 The Securities will be secured by the Notes Collateral on the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in the Indenture and the Security Documents. The Collateral Agent holds the Notes Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, in each case pursuant to the Security Documents and the Intercreditor
Agreements. Each Holder, by accepting this Security, consents and agrees to the terms of the Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the foreclosure and release of Notes Collateral) and the Intercreditor Agreements as the same may
be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Indenture and authorizes and directs each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, and to
perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith.

 The Securities are in registered form, without coupons, in
minimum denominations of $50,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The registration of transfer of or exchange of Securities shall be done in accordance with the Indenture. Upon any registration of transfer or exchange, the
Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or
exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or to transfer or exchange any Securities for a period of 15 days prior to a selection of
Securities to be redeemed.

Security shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

 If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two
years, the Trustee and a Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Issuer at its written request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, the Holders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for
payment as general creditors and the Trustee and Paying Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such monies. 
  

	13.	Discharge and Defeasance 

 Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Issuer
at any time may terminate some of or all its obligations under the Securities and the Indenture if the Issuer deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to redemption or

provisions comparable to Section 2.11(b) of the form of 

  
 A-8 








 
Intercreditor Agreement attached as Exhibit D to the Indenture or (c) to add the Issuer or any Guarantor as a party to any Intercreditor Agreement to the extent such party Incurs any Secured
Indebtedness that constitutes First Priority Lien Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Indenture or to remove the Issuer or any Guarantor as a party to any Intercreditor Agreement to the extent such party ceases to be bound by any and all
First Priority Lien Obligations; or (xii) to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary. 
  

	15.	Defaults and Remedies 

 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Securities by notice to the Issuer may, and if such notice
is given by the Holders such notice shall be given to the Issuer and the Trustee, declare that the principal of, and the premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Securities is due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such
principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to the Issuer occurs, the principal of, and the premium, if any, and accrued but
unpaid interest on, all the Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. Under certain circumstances, the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Securities may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Securities and its consequences. 
 Except to
enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Securities unless (i) such Holder gives the Trustee written notice stating that an Event
of Default is continuing, (ii) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy, (iii) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, (iv) the Trustee does not comply with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity and (v) the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the then outstanding Securities do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request during such 60-day period. Subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Indenture, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that
conflicts with law or the Indenture or, subject to the Indenture, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the
Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 

 

	16.	Trustee Dealings with the Issuer 

 Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Indenture, the
Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in the Issuer or in any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Securities, the Indenture, the Guarantees, the Security Documents or
the Intercreditor Agreements or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Securities by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability.
