 SECTION 3.
Registered Exchange Offer. 
 (a) Unless the Company determines in good faith after consultation with counsel that the
Exchange Offer shall not be permissible under applicable law or Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a) hereof have been complied with), each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to (i) file with the Commission a Registration Statement under the Securities Act relating to the Exchange Securities and the Exchange Offer, (ii) cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission under
the Securities Act and (iii) cause the Exchange Offer to be Consummated no later than the 360th day after the Closing Date (or if such 360th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day). In connection with the foregoing, the
Company and the Guarantors will (A) file all pre-effective amendments to such Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to cause such Registration Statement to become effective, (B) if applicable, file a post-effective amendment
to such Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act and (C) cause all necessary filings in connection with the registration and qualification of the Exchange Securities to be made under the state securities or blue sky
laws of such jurisdictions as are necessary to permit Consummation of the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Guarantors shall be required to (x) qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in
securities in any jurisdiction where it would not be otherwise required to qualify but for this Section 3(a) or (y) take any action that would subject it to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not
then so subject. The Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall be on the appropriate form permitting registration of the Exchange Securities to be offered in exchange for the Transfer Restricted Securities and to permit resales of Initial
Securities held by Broker-Dealers as contemplated by Section 3(c) hereof. 

  
 4 








 (b) If an Exchange Offer Registration Statement is required to be filed and declared effective
pursuant to Section 3(a) above, each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be effective continuously and shall keep the Exchange Offer open for a
period of not less than the minimum period required under applicable federal and state securities laws to Consummate the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that in no event shall such period be less than 20 Business Days after the date notice
of the Exchange Offer is mailed or sent to the Holders. The Company shall cause the Exchange Offer to comply in all material respects with all applicable federal and state securities laws. No securities other than the Exchange Securities shall be
included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. 
 (c) The Company shall indicate in a “Plan of Distribution” section
contained in the Prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement that any Broker-Dealer who holds Initial Securities that are Transfer Restricted Securities and that were acquired for its own account as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities (other than Transfer Restricted Securities acquired directly from the Company), may exchange such Initial Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer; however, such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be
an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resales of the Exchange Securities received by such Broker-Dealer in the
Exchange Offer, which prospectus delivery requirement may be satisfied by the delivery by such Broker-Dealer of the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. Such “Plan of Distribution” section shall also contain
all other information with respect to such resales by Broker-Dealers that the Commission may require in order to permit such resales pursuant thereto, but such “Plan of Distribution” shall not name any such Broker-Dealer or disclose the
amount of Initial Securities held by any such Broker-Dealer except to the extent required by the Commission as a result of a change in policy after the date of this Agreement. 

Each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement
continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Section 6(c) hereof to the extent necessary to provide reasonable assurance that it is available for resales of Initial Securities acquired by Broker-Dealers for
their own accounts as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, and to provide reasonable assurance that it conforms in all material respects with the requirements of this Agreement, the Securities Act and the policies, rules
and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a period ending on the earlier of (i) 20 Business Days from the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective; and (ii) the date on which
a Broker-Dealer is no longer required to deliver a prospectus in connection with market-making or other trading activities. 
 The Company
shall provide sufficient copies of the latest version of such Prospectus to Broker-Dealers promptly upon reasonable request at any time during such 20 Business-Day (or shorter as provided in the foregoing sentence) period in order to facilitate such
resale, which copies may be in electronic or .pdf format. 
 SECTION 4. Shelf Registration. 

  
 5 








 (a) Shelf Registration. If (i) the Company is not required to file an Exchange Offer
Registration Statement or to consummate the Exchange Offer because the Company determines in good faith after consultation with counsel that the Exchange Offer is not permitted by applicable law or Commission policy (after the procedures set forth
in Section 6(a) hereof have been complied with), (ii) for any reason the Exchange Offer is not Consummated by the 360th day after the Closing Date (or if such 360th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), or
(iii) with respect to any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities that notifies the Company in writing that (A) such Holder is prohibited by applicable law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer, or (B) in the
case of any Holder that participates in the Exchange Offer, such Holder may not resell the Exchange Securities acquired by it in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus (other than because the Holder is an affiliate (as
defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act) of the Company) and that the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales by such Holder, or (C) such Holder is a Broker-Dealer and
holds Initial Securities acquired directly from the Company or one of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act), then, upon such Holder’s written notification and request (which notification and request must be received
by the Company prior to the date that the Exchange Offer is Consummated), the Company and the Guarantors shall: 
 (x) use
their commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be filed a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which may be an amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in either event, the “Shelf
Registration Statement”) as promptly as practicable, which Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for resales of all Transfer Restricted Securities the Holders of which shall have provided the information required pursuant to
Section 4(b) hereof; and 
 (y) use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to
be declared effective by the Commission as promptly as practicable. 
 Each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Sections 6(b) and (c) hereof to the extent necessary to provide reasonable assurance that it is
available for resales of Initial Securities by the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities entitled to the benefit of this Section 4(a), and to provide reasonable assurance that it conforms in all material respects with the requirements of
this Agreement, the Securities Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, from the date on which the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission until the earlier of
(a) one year following the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement or (b) the date when all of the Initial Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time, the Company may delay the filing of any Shelf Registration
Statement or delay or suspend the effectiveness thereof and shall not be required to maintain the effectiveness thereof or amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement, for a period of time (a “Shelf Blackout Period”) not
to exceed an aggregate of 90 days in any twelve-month period, if (1) the Board of Directors of the Company determines, in good faith, that the disclosure in such Shelf Registration Statement of 


  
 6 








 
an event, occurrence or other item at such time is in the best interests of the Company or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,
operations or prospects or (2) the disclosure in such Shelf Registration Statement otherwise relates to a material business transaction which has not been publicly disclosed and the Board of Directors of the Company determines, in good faith,
that any such disclosure would jeopardize the success of such transaction or that disclosure of such transaction is prohibited pursuant to the terms thereof. 

(b) Provisions by Holders of Certain Information in Connection with the Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities may include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement or benefit from the provisions regarding Additional Interest for a Registration Default with respect to a Shelf
Registration Statement unless and until such Holder furnishes to the Company in writing, within 20 Business Days after receipt of a request therefor, such information as the Company may reasonably request for use in connection with any Shelf
Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus included therein. Each Holder as to which any Shelf Registration Statement is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order
to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading. 
 SECTION 5. Additional
Interest. If (i) the Exchange Offer has not been Consummated by the 360th day after the Closing Date with respect to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (or if such 360th day is not a Business Day, the succeeding Business Day) unless
the Exchange Offer is not permitted by applicable law or Commission policy, (ii) the Shelf Registration Statement, if required hereby, has not been filed or declared effective by the Commission by the 360th day after the Closing Date (or if
such 360th day is not a Business Day, the succeeding Business Day) or (iii) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is filed and declared effective but, subject to any Shelf Blackout Period, shall thereafter cease to be effective
without being succeeded promptly thereafter by a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such failure and that is itself immediately declared effective (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iii), a
“Registration Default”), the Company hereby agrees that the interest rate borne by the Transfer Restricted Securities shall be increased (such increased interest, the “Additional Interest”) by 0.25% per annum
during the 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of any Registration Default and shall increase by 0.25% per annum at the end of each subsequent 90-day period, but in no event shall the aggregate increase in such annual interest
rate exceed 1.00%. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults relating to any particular Transfer Restricted Securities, Additional Interest shall cease to accrue from the date of such cure and the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer
Restricted Securities will be reduced to the original interest rate borne by such Transfer Restricted Securities prior to the Registration Default; provided, however, that, if after any such reduction in interest rate, a different
Registration Default occurs, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted Securities shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions. 

All obligations of the Company and the Guarantors set forth in the preceding paragraph that are outstanding with respect to any Transfer
Restricted Security at the time such security ceases to be a Transfer Restricted Security shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such security shall have been satisfied in full. 

  
 7 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the amount of Additional Interest payable shall not
increase because more than one Registration Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities who is not entitled to the benefits of the Shelf Registration Statement shall not be entitled to Additional
Interest with respect to a Registration Default that pertains to the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 The Additional Interest described in
this Section 5 is the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities due to a Registration Default. 

SECTION 6. Registration Procedures. 

(a) Exchange Offer Registration Statement. In connection with the Exchange Offer, if required pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof, the
Company and the Guarantors shall comply in all material respects with all of the provisions of Section 6(c) hereof, and shall comply with all of the following provisions: 

(i) To the extent the Commission raises an objection or, if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company there is a
question in either case as to whether the Exchange Offer is permitted by applicable law, each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby agrees to either, at the Company’s sole option, (A) seek a no-action letter or other favorable decision
from the Commission allowing the Company and the Guarantors to Consummate an Exchange Offer for such Initial Securities or (B) file, in accordance with Section 4(a) hereof, a Shelf Registration Statement to permit the registration and/or
resale of such Initial Securities that would otherwise be covered by the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. If the Company elects to seek a no-action letter or other favorable decision from the Commission, each of the Company and the Guarantors
hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue the issuance of such a decision to the Commission staff level but shall not be required to take commercially unreasonable action to effect a change of Commission policy. In the case of
clause (A) above, each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby agrees, however, to (x) participate in telephonic conferences with the Commission and (y) diligently pursue a favorable resolution by the Commission staff of such
submission. 
 (ii) As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, each
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall furnish, upon the request of the Company, prior to the Consummation thereof, a written representation to the Company (which may be contained in the letter of transmittal contemplated by the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement) to the effect that (A) it is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of the Company or any Guarantor, (B) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, and has no arrangement
or understanding with any Person to participate in, a distribution of the Exchange Securities to be issued in the Exchange Offer and (C) it is acquiring the Exchange Securities in its ordinary course of business and (D) it shall have made
such other representations as may be reasonably necessary under applicable Commission rules, regulations or interpretations to render the use of Form S-4 or other appropriate form under the Securities Act available or for the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement to be declared effective. In addition, all such Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities shall otherwise cooperate in the Company’s 

  
 8 








 
preparations for the Exchange Offer. Each Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Broker-Dealer and any such Holder using the Exchange Offer to participate in a distribution of the
Exchange Securities to be acquired in the Exchange Offer (1) could not under Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement rely on the position of the Commission enunciated in Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (available
June 5, 1991) and Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the Commission’s letter to Shearman & Sterling dated July 2, 1993, and similar no-action letters (which may include
any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above), and (2) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction and that such a secondary
resale transaction should be covered by an effective registration statement containing the selling security holder information required by Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K if the resales are of Exchange Securities obtained by
such Holder in exchange for Initial Securities acquired by such Holder directly from the Company. 
 (b) Shelf Registration
Statement. In connection with any Shelf Registration Statement, each of the Company and the Guarantors shall comply in all material respects with all the provisions of Section 6(c) hereof and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts
to effect such registration to permit the resale of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto each of the Company and the Guarantors will as promptly
as reasonably practicable prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating to the registration on any appropriate form under the Securities Act, which form shall be available for the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities
in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof. 
 (c) General Provisions. In connection with any
Registration Statement and any Prospectus required by this Agreement to permit the sale or resale of Transfer Restricted Securities (including, without limitation, any Registration Statement and the related Prospectus required to permit resales of
Initial Securities by Broker-Dealers), each of the Company and the Guarantors shall, but in all cases, subject to any Shelf Blackout Period: 

(i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective and provide all
requisite financial statements (including, if required by the Securities Act or any regulation thereunder, financial statements of the Guarantors) for the period specified in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable; upon the occurrence of any
event that would cause any such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain a material misstatement or omission or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of Transfer Restricted Securities during the
period required by this Agreement, the Company shall file promptly an appropriate amendment to such Registration Statement or a prospectus supplement, in the case of clause (A), correcting any such misstatement or omission, and, in the case of
either clause (A) or (B), use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to be declared effective or to file such prospectus supplement and such Registration Statement and the related Prospectus to become usable for their
intended purpose(s) as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter; 

  
 9 








 (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the
Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the applicable Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for the applicable period set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable, or
such shorter period as will terminate when all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold; cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, and to comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of Rules 424 and 430A under the Securities Act in a timely manner; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect
to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement
to the Prospectus; 
 (iii) advise the underwriter(s), if any, and selling Holders named in the Registration Statement, if
any, promptly upon becoming aware thereof and, if requested by such Persons, to confirm such advice in writing, (A) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to any
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective, (B) of any request by the Commission for amendments to the Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for
additional information relating thereto, (C) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Securities Act or following the receipt of the Company of any notifications of
the suspension by any state securities commission of the qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any of the preceding purposes and (D) of the
existence of any fact or the happening of any event that makes any statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein untrue, as of
their respective dates or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, as of their respective dates, not misleading in the light of the circumstances
in which they are made. If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the
qualification or exemption from qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities under state securities or blue sky laws, each of the Company and the Guarantors shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of
such order as promptly as reasonably practicable; 
 (iv) furnish without charge to each of the Initial Purchasers, each
selling Holder named in any Registration Statement, and each of the underwriter(s), if any, before filing with the Commission, copies of any Registration Statement or any Prospectus included therein or any amendments or supplements to any such
Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all documents incorporated by reference after the initial filing of such Registration Statement relating to the Exchange Offer), which documents will be subject to the review and comment of such
Holders and underwriter(s) 

  
 10 








 
in connection with such sale, if any, for a period of no more than two Business Days, and the Company will not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to
any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (excluding all documents incorporated by reference) to which an Initial Purchaser of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement or the underwriter(s), if any, shall reasonably
object in writing within two Business Days after the receipt thereof (such objection to be deemed timely made upon confirmation of telecopy transmission within such period); provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph
shall not apply to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, its current reports on Form 8-K or any other documents filed pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act. The objection of an Initial Purchaser or underwriter, if any, shall be deemed to be reasonable if such Registration Statement, amendment, Prospectus or supplement, as applicable, as proposed to be filed, contains a material
misstatement or omission; 
 (v) promptly prior to the filing of any document that is to be incorporated by reference into a
Registration Statement or Prospectus relating to the Exchange Offer, provide copies of such document to the Initial Purchasers, each selling Holder named in any Registration Statement, and to the underwriter(s), if any, make the Company’s and
the Guarantors’ representatives available for discussion of such document and other customary due diligence matters, and include such information in such document prior to the filing thereof as such selling Holders or underwriter(s), if any,
reasonably may request; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph shall not apply to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, its current reports on Form 8-K or any other
documents filed pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. 
 (vi) in connection with a Shelf
Registration Statement, make available during normal business hours for inspection for due diligence purposes, by the managing underwriter(s), if any, participating in any disposition pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney or
accountant retained by any of the managing underwriter(s), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of each of the Company and the Guarantors and cause the Company’s and the Guarantors’ officers,
directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such managing underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto subsequent to the filing thereof
and prior to its effectiveness and to participate in meetings with investors to the extent reasonably requested by the managing underwriter(s), if any; provided, that such Persons shall first agree in writing with the Company that any non-public
information shall be used solely for the purposes of satisfying “due diligence” obligations under the Securities Act and exercising rights under this Agreement and shall be kept confidential for a period of two years by such Persons,
unless (i) disclosure of such information is required by court or administrative order or is necessary to respond to inquiries of regulatory authorities, (ii) disclosure of such information is required by law (including any disclosure
requirements pursuant to federal securities laws in connection with the filing of any Shelf Registration Statement or the use of any prospectus referred to in this Agreement), (iii) such information becomes generally available to the public
other than 

  
 11 








 
as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by any such Person, or (iv) such information becomes available to any such Person from a source other than the Company and such source is
not known to such Person to be bound by a confidentiality agreement; 
 (vii) in connection with a Shelf Registration
Statement, if requested by any selling Holders or the underwriter(s), if any, promptly incorporate in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, pursuant to a supplement or post-effective amendment if necessary, such information as such selling
Holders and underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request to have included therein, including, without limitation, information relating to the “Plan of Distribution” of the Transfer Restricted Securities, information with respect to the
principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities being sold to such underwriter(s), the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Transfer Restricted Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required

each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby consents to the use of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders named therein and each of the managing underwriter(s), if any, in connection with the offering

 (xi)
in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, enter into a customary underwriting agreement, and make such customary representations and warranties, and take all such other customary actions in connection
therewith in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement with respect to such underwritten offering, all to such extent as may be

(A) furnish to each selling Holder identified in the Registration Statement, if any, and each underwriter, if any, in such

procedures; and 
 (C) deliver such other documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by such parties to
evidence compliance with Section 6(c)(xi)(A) hereof and with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company or any of the Guarantors pursuant to this Section 6(c)(xi), if
any. 
 (xii) prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities, cooperate with the selling Holders identified
in the Registration Statement, if any, the underwriter(s), if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration and qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities under the state securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions as the selling Holders or underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by
the Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Guarantors shall be required to register or qualify as a foreign corporation where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would subject it
to the service of process in suits or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject; 

  
 13 








 (xiii) to the extent permitted by law and the Indenture, use commercially
reasonable efforts to issue, upon the reasonable request of any Holder of Initial Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement, Exchange Securities having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Initial

Restricted Securities to be sold pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement and not bearing any restrictive legends; and enable such Transfer Restricted Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders or the
underwriter(s), if any, may request, subject to the terms of the Indenture, at least three Business Days prior to any sale pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement of Transfer Restricted Securities made by such Holders or underwriter(s); 

(xv) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration
Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be reasonably necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter(s), if any, to consummate the disposition of such Transfer
Restricted Securities, subject to the proviso contained in Section 6(c)(xii) hereof; 
 (xvi) if any fact or event
contemplated by Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof shall exist or have occurred, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other
required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Prospectus will not contain (after giving effect to such supplement or amendment) at the time of such delivery an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances in which they are made; 

(xvii) provide a CUSIP number for all Securities not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement covering the

that all such Securities are eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company;

assist in any filings required to be made with FINRA and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter (including any “qualified independent underwriter”) that is required to be retained in accordance with the

 14 








 (xix) use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply in all material respects
with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make generally available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, a consolidated earnings statement meeting the requirements of Rule 158 under the Securities Act
(which need not be audited) for the twelve-month period (A) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Transfer Restricted Securities are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or best efforts Underwritten Offering or (B) if
not sold to underwriters in such an offering, beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement; 

(xx) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act not later
than the effective date of the first Registration Statement required by this Agreement, and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee and the Holders of Securities to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be required for such
Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the Trust Indenture Act; and to execute and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents that may be required to effect such changes and all other
forms and documents required to be filed with the Commission to enable such Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner; and 

(xxi) if not available on the Commission’s EDGAR system, provide promptly to each Holder upon request each document filed
with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 and Section 15 of the Exchange Act. 
 Each Holder agrees by
acquisition of a Transfer Restricted Security that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the existence of any fact of the kind described in Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer
Restricted Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xvi) hereof, or until it is advised in writing (the
“Advice”) by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus. If so directed by the Company, each
Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities that was current at the time of
receipt of such notice. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the time period regarding the effectiveness of such Registration Statement set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days
during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof to and including the date when each selling Holder covered by such Registration Statement shall have received the copies of the
supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xvi) hereof or shall have received the Advice; provided, however, that no such extension shall be taken into account in determining whether Additional Interest is due
pursuant to Section 5 hereof or the amount of such Additional Interest, it being agreed that the Company’s option to suspend use of a Registration Statement pursuant to this paragraph shall be treated as a Registration Default for purposes
of Section 5 hereof. Each Holder shall hold in confidence the fact that it has received notice pursuant to this Section and any communication related thereto. 

  
 15 








 SECTION 7. Registration Expenses. 

(a) All expenses incident to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by the
Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, regardless of whether a Registration Statement becomes effective, including, without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses (including filings made by any Initial
Purchaser or Holder with FINRA (and, if applicable, the reasonable fees and expenses of any “qualified independent underwriter” and its counsel that may be required by the rules and regulations of FINRA)); (ii) all fees and expenses
of compliance with federal securities and state securities or blue sky laws; (iii) all expenses of printing (including printing certificates for the Exchange Securities to be issued in the Exchange Offer and printing of Prospectuses), messenger
and delivery services and telephone; (iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, the Guarantors and, subject to Section 7(b) hereof, the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement; (v) all application and filing fees in connection with listing the Exchange Securities on a securities exchange or automated quotation system pursuant to the requirements thereof; and (vi) all fees and
disbursements of independent certified public accountants of the Company and the Guarantors (including the expenses of any special audit and comfort letters required by or incident to such performance). 

Each of the Company and the Guarantors will, in any event, bear its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and
expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts, retained by the Company or the Guarantors. 

(b) In connection with any Registration Statement required by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement and the Shelf Registration Statement), the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will reimburse the Initial Purchasers and the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities being tendered in the Exchange Offer and/or resold
pursuant to the “Plan of Distribution” contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or registered pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as applicable, for the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of not more
than one counsel, which shall be Cahill Gordon & Reindel llp or such other counsel as may be chosen by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities for whose benefit such Registration Statement is
being prepared. 
 SECTION 8. Indemnification. 

(a) The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Holder and (ii) each
Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any Holder (any of the Persons referred to in this clause (ii) being hereinafter referred to as a
“controlling person”) and (iii) the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of any Holder or any controlling person (any Person referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) may
hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnified Holder”), to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and 

  
 16 








 
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions and expenses (including, without limitation, and as incurred, reimbursement of all reasonable and documented costs of investigating,
preparing, pursuing, settling, compromising, paying or defending any claim or action, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of
counsel to any Indemnified Holder) based upon or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading except insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses are caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that is made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any of the Holders furnished in writing to the Company by any
of the Holders expressly for use therein. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability which the Company or any of the Guarantors may otherwise have. 

In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought or asserted
against any of the Indemnified Holders with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company or the Guarantors, such Indemnified Holder (or the Indemnified Holder controlled by such controlling person) shall promptly notify the Company
and the Guarantors in writing; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve any of the Company or the Guarantors of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent that the Company or any
Guarantor, as applicable, was materially prejudiced as a result of such failure or delay. The Company and the Guarantors shall be entitled to participate in any such action and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Holder, and, after notice from the Company or any Guarantor to such Indemnified Holder of its election so to assume the defense, thereof, the Company or the Guarantors shall not be liable to such
Indemnified Holder for any legal or other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Holder, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable and documented costs of investigation. Notwithstanding the Company’s
or any Guarantor’s election to appoint counsel to represent the Indemnified Holders in any action, such Indemnified Holders shall have the right to employ, subject to the limitations set forth below, separate counsel (including local counsel)
and the Company shall bear the reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if such Indemnified Holder shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and such
Indemnified Holder in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Holders which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, such
Indemnified Holder shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Holder. The Company and the Guarantors shall not, in connection
with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable and documented fees
and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for such Indemnified Holders, which firm shall be designated by the Indemnified Holders. The Company and the Guarantors shall be liable for any
settlement of any such action or proceeding effected with the  

  
 17 








 
Company’s and the Guarantors’ prior written consent, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably, and each of the Company and the Guarantors agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
any Indemnified Holder from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of any settlement of any action effected with the written consent of the Company and the Guarantors. The Company and the Guarantors shall not, without
the prior written consent of each Indemnified Holder, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, litigation or
proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Holder is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each
Indemnified Holder from all liability arising out of such action, claim, litigation or proceeding. 
 (b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors and their respective directors, officers, partners and members who sign a Registration Statement, and any Person controlling (within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company or any of the Guarantors, and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of each such Person, to the same extent as
the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to each of the Indemnified Holders, but only with respect to losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions and expenses directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based on,
arising out of or in connection with information relating to such Holder furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement. In case any action or proceeding shall be brought against the Company, the Guarantors or
their respective directors or officers or any such controlling person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against a Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, such Holder shall have the rights and duties given the Company and the Guarantors,
and the Company, the Guarantors, their respective directors, officers, partners and members and such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to each Holder by the preceding paragraph. 

(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or
(b) hereof (other than by reason of exceptions provided in those Sections) in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions or expenses referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits
received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, from the Initial Placement (which in the case of the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds to the Company and
the Guarantors from the Initial Placement), the amount of Additional Interest which did not become payable as a result of the filing of the Registration Statement resulting in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments actions or expenses,
and such Registration Statement, or if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions
which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Indemnified Holder on the other shall be determined by


  
 18 








 
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
the Company or any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, or the Indemnified Holders, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The
amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in the second paragraph of Section 8(a) hereof, any
documented legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. 

The Company, the Guarantors and each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 8(c) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to
in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to
the limitations set forth above, any documented legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, none
of the Holders (and its related Indemnified Holders) shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discount received by such Holder with respect to the Initial Securities exceeds the amount
of any damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(c) are several in proportion to the respective
principal amount of Initial Securities held by each of the Holders hereunder and not joint. 
 SECTION 9. Rule 144A. Each of the
Company and the Guarantors hereby agrees with each Holder, for so long as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding, to make available to any Holder or beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with any sale
thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted Securities from such Holder or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted Securities
pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. 
 SECTION 10. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Holder may participate
in any Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all reasonable questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 

SECTION 11. Selection of Underwriters. The Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement who
desire to do so may sell such Transfer 

  
 19 








 
Restricted Securities in an Underwritten Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment banker(s) and managing underwriter(s) that will administer such offering will be selected by
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities included in such offering; provided, however, that such investment banker(s) and managing underwriter(s) must be reasonably satisfactory to the
Company. 
 SECTION 12. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Remedies. Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby agrees that, except with respect to a Registration Default, monetary
damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agree to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 (b) No Inconsistent Agreements. Each of the Company and the Guarantors will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into
any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. Neither the Company nor any of the Guarantors has previously entered into
any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to its securities to any Person. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the
Company’s or any of the Guarantors’ securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. 
 (c) Adjustments Affecting
the Initial Securities. The Company will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to the Initial Securities that could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Holders to Consummate any
Exchange Offer, unless such action or change is required by law. 
 (d) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may
not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company has (i) in the case of Section 5 hereof and this Section 12(d)(i), obtained the written
consent of Holders of all outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) in the case of all other provisions hereof, obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted
Securities (excluding any Transfer Restricted Securities held by the Company or its affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions hereof that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose
securities are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights of other Holders whose securities are not being tendered pursuant to such Exchange Offer may be given by the Holders of a
majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities being tendered or registered; provided, however, that, with respect to any matter that directly or adversely affects the rights of any Initial Purchaser hereunder,
the Company shall obtain the written consent of each such Initial Purchaser with respect to which such amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver, consent or departure is to be effective.
