Legend is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of the Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act, the Company may instruct the Trustee to cancel the Note and
issue to the Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note, of like tenor and amount, registered in the name of the Holder thereof (or its transferee), that does not bear the Restricted Legend, and the Trustee will comply with such instruction.

 (d) By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Restricted Legend (or any beneficial interest in such a Note), each Holder
thereof and each owner of a beneficial interest therein acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note (and any such beneficial interest) set forth in this Indenture and in the Restricted Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note
(and any such beneficial interest) only in accordance with the Indenture and such legend. 
 Section 2.02. Execution and
Authentication; Additional Notes. (a) An Officer shall execute the Notes for the Company by facsimile or manual signature in the name and on behalf of the Company. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at
the time the Note is authenticated, the Note will still be valid. 
 (b) A Note will not be valid until the Trustee manually signs
the certificate of authentication on the Note by an authorized signatory, with the signature as conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under the Indenture. 

(c) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of the Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company
to the Trustee for authentication. The Trustee will authenticate and deliver 
 (i) Initial Notes for original issue in the
aggregate principal amount not to exceed $600,000,000 and 
 (ii) Additional Notes from time to time for original issue in
aggregate principal amounts specified by the Company 

  
 18 








 after the following conditions have been met: 

(1) Receipt by the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate specifying 

(A) the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, 

(B) whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes, 

(C) in the case of Additional Notes, that the issuance of such Notes does not contravene any provision of Article 4; 

(D) whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global Notes or Certificated Notes, and 

(E) other information the Company may determine to include or the Trustee may reasonably request. 

(2) In the case of Additional Notes, receipt by the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the
outstanding Notes will be subject to federal income tax in the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Additional Notes were not issued.

Section 2.03. Registrar, Paying Agent and Authenticating Agent; Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. (a) The Company
may appoint one or more Registrars and one or more Paying Agents, and the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent, in which case each reference, if any, in the Indenture to the Trustee in respect of the obligations of the Trustee to be performed
by that Agent will be deemed to be references to the Agent. The Company may act as Registrar or (except for purposes of Article 8) Paying Agent. In each case the Company and the Trustee will enter into an appropriate agreement with the Agent (if
other than the Trustee) implementing the provisions of the Indenture relating to the obligations to be performed by the Agent and the related rights. The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent. 

(b) The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the
benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and will promptly notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. The Company at any time
may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and 

  
 19 








 
account for any funds disbursed, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require the Paying Agent to pay all money
held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent will have no further liability for the money so paid over to the Trustee. 

Section 2.04. Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if the Trustee receives evidence to
its satisfaction that a Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company will issue and the Trustee will authenticate a replacement Note of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. Every
replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity must be furnished that is sufficient in the judgment of both the Trustee and the
Company to protect the Company and the Trustee from any loss they may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Company and the Trustee in replacing a Note. In case the mutilated, lost, destroyed or
wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may pay the Note instead of issuing a replacement Note. The provisions of this Section 2.04 shall be exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Notes. 

Section 2.05. Outstanding Notes. (a) Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been authenticated by the
Trustee except for 
 (1) Notes cancelled by the Trustee or delivered to it for cancellation; 

(2) any Note which has been replaced or paid pursuant to Section 2.04 unless and until the Trustee and the Company receive
proof satisfactory to them that the replaced or paid Note is held by a bona fide purchaser; and 
 (3) on or after the
maturity date or any redemption date or date for purchase of the Notes pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, those Notes payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that date for which the Trustee (or Paying Agent, other than the Company or an Affiliate
of the Company) holds money sufficient to pay all amounts then due. 
 (b) A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or
one of its Affiliates holds the Note, provided that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Notes have given or taken any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other action hereunder, Notes owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the 

  
 20 








 
Company will be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, (it being understood that in determining whether the Trustee is protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, only Notes which the Trustee knows to be so owned will be so disregarded). Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the
satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any Affiliate of the Company. 

Section 2.06. Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee will
authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other variations determined to be appropriate by the Officer executing the temporary Notes, as
evidenced by the execution of the temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, the Company will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes will be exchangeable
for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company designated for the purpose pursuant to Section 4.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any temporary Notes the Company
will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes will be entitled to the same benefits under the
Indenture as definitive Notes. 
 Section 2.07. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver to the Trustee for
cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has
not issued and sold. Any Registrar or the Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to it for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee will cancel all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and
dispose of them in accordance with its normal procedures or the written instructions of the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has paid in full or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.08. CUSIP and CINS Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and “CINS” numbers, and
the Trustee will use CUSIP numbers or CINS numbers in notices of redemption or exchange or in Offers to Purchase as a convenience to Holders, such notices to state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as
printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange or Offer to Purchase. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or CINS numbers. 

  
 21 








 Section 2.09. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Notes will be issued
in registered form only, without coupons, and the Company shall cause the Trustee to maintain a register (the “Register”) of the Notes, for registering the record ownership of the Notes by the Holders and transfers and exchanges of
the Notes. 
 (b) (1) Each Global Note will be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee and, so long as
DTC is serving as the Depositary thereof, will bear the DTC Legend. 
 (2) Each Global Note will be delivered to the Trustee
as custodian for the Depositary. Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees, except (1) as
set forth in Section 2.09(b)(4) and (2) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Notes may be made upon request of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on
behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and in compliance with this Section and Section 2.10. 

(3) Agent Members will have no rights under the Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the
Depositary, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary or
its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person (including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through an Agent Member) to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the
Indenture or the Notes, and nothing herein will impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any security. 

(4) If (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for a Global Note
and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of the notice or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee has received a request from the Depositary, the Trustee will promptly exchange
each beneficial interest in the Global Note for one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of the owner of such 

  
 22 








 
beneficial interest, as identified to the Trustee by the Depositary, and thereupon the Global Note will be deemed canceled. If such Note does not bear the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated
Notes issued in exchange therefor will not bear the Restricted Legend. If such Note bears the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will bear the Restricted Legend. 

(5) None of the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for
any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 

(c) Each Certificated Note will be registered in the name of the holder thereof or its nominee. 

(d) A Holder may transfer a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or exchange a Note (or a beneficial interest
therein) for another Note or Notes of any authorized denomination by presenting to the Trustee a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification, opinion or other
document required by Section 2.10. For avoidance of doubt, neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall have any responsibilities with respect to the transfer of beneficial interests within the same Global Note. The Trustee will promptly register any
transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section by noting the same in the register maintained by the Trustee for the purpose; provided that  

(x) no transfer or exchange will be effective until it is registered in such register, 

(y) the Trustee will not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days
before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or purchased pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption or purchase in whole or in part, except, in the case of a partial
redemption or purchase, that portion of any Note not being redeemed or purchased, or (iii) if a redemption or a purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase is to occur after a Regular Record Date but on or before the corresponding Interest
Payment Date, to register the transfer of or exchange any Note on or after the Regular Record Date and before the date of redemption or purchase. Prior to the registration of any transfer, the Company, the Trustee and their agents will treat the
Person in whose name the Note is registered as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes (whether or not the Note is overdue), and will not be affected by notice to the contrary, and 

(z) every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or
the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 

  
 23 








 From time to time the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate additional Notes as
necessary in order to permit the registration of a transfer or exchange in accordance with this Section. In order to facilitate the execution, authentication and delivery of Certificated Notes, the Company shall deliver a supply of Certificated
Notes to the Trustee in sufficient time to permit the execution, authentication and delivery thereof on a timely basis. 
 No service charge
will be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Note, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than a transfer tax or
other similar governmental charge payable upon exchange pursuant to subsection (b)(4)). 
 (e) (1) Global Note to Global
Note. If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged
equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other Global Note. Any beneficial interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the
form of an interest in another Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will
thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. 

(2) Global Note to Certificated Note. If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a

but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to such redemption date) if redeemed during the 12-month

accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption, subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to such

 Section 3.02. Redemption with Proceeds of Equity Offering. (a) At any time and from time to time

 28

of the Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to such redemption date), in an aggregate principal amount for all such redemptions not to exceed 35% of the

 (1) in each case the redemption takes place not
later than 90 days after the closing of the related Qualified Equity Offering, and 
 (2) not less than 65% in principal amount of the

 Section 3.03. Method and Effect of Redemption.
(a) If the Company elects to redeem Notes, it must notify the Trustee of the redemption date and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed by delivering an Officers’ Certificate at least 40 days before the redemption date (unless a
shorter period is satisfactory to the Trustee), such Officers’ Certificate to state that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture to such redemption have been complied with. If fewer than all of the Notes are being redeemed, the
Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed, no later than 30 days prior to the redemption date, pro rata, by lot or by any other method the Trustee in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and
integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided, that the unredeemed portion of a Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000; and provided further, that if the Notes are represented by one or more Global Notes, beneficial
interests in the Notes will be selected for redemption by DTC in accordance with its standard procedures therefor. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be called for redemption. Notice of redemption must
be sent by the Company to Holders whose Notes are to be redeemed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date. At the Company’s request in connection with an optional redemption, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 40 days prior to the redemption date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the
Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.03(b). 

(b) The notice of redemption will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will include or state the following: 

(1) the redemption date; 

  
 29 








 (2) the redemption price, or if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation
thereof, including the portion thereof representing any accrued interest; 
 (3) the place or places where Notes are to be
surrendered for redemption; 
 (4) Notes called for redemption must be so surrendered in order to collect the redemption
price; 
 (5) on the redemption date the redemption price will become due and payable on Notes called for redemption, and
interest on Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (6) if any Note is redeemed
in part, on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Note, new Notes equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion will be issued; and 

(7) if any Note contains a CUSIP or CINS number, no representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP or CINS
number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of redemption and that the Holder should rely only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. 

(c) Once notice of redemption is sent to the Holders, Notes called for redemption become due and payable at the redemption price on the
redemption date, and upon surrender of the Notes called for redemption, the Company shall redeem such Notes at the redemption price. Commencing on the redemption date, Notes redeemed will cease to accrue interest; provided, that the Company
has not defaulted in depositing the redemption price in accordance with the provisions hereof. Upon surrender of any Note redeemed in part, the Holder will receive a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the surrendered
Note. 
 Section 3.04. Offer to Purchase. (a) An “Offer to Purchase” means an offer by the Company to
purchase Notes as required by Section 4.07 of the Indenture. An Offer to Purchase must be made by written offer (the “offer”) sent to the Holders. The Company will notify the Trustee at least 15 days (or such shorter period as
is acceptable to the Trustee) prior to sending the offer to Holders of its obligation to make an Offer to Purchase, and the offer will be sent by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the
Company. Such request shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.04(b). 

  
 30 








 (b) The offer must include or state the following as to the terms of the Offer to Purchase: 

(1) the Offer to Purchase is being made pursuant to Section 4.07 of the Indenture; 

(2) that the Company is offering to purchase all outstanding Notes (the “purchase amount”); 

(3) the purchase price, including the portion thereof representing accrued interest; 

(4) an expiration date (the “expiration date”) not less than 30 days or more than 60 days after the date of
the offer, and a settlement date for purchase (the “purchase date”) not more than five Business Days after the expiration date; 

(5) describe the transaction or transactions that constituted the requirement to make the Offer to Purchase; 

(6) a Holder may tender all or any portion of its Notes, subject to the requirement that any portion of a Note tendered must be
equal to $2,000 principal amount or a higher multiple of $1,000 principal amount (provided that any unpurchased portion of the Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000); 

(7) the place or places where Notes are to be surrendered for tender pursuant to the Offer to Purchase; 

(8) each Holder electing to tender a Note pursuant to the offer will be required to surrender such Note at the place or places
specified in the offer prior to the close of business on the expiration date (such Note being, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, duly endorsed or accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of transfer); 

(9) interest on any Note not tendered, or tendered but not purchased by the Company pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, will

 31 








 
than the close of business on the expiration date, setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the tendered Notes, the certificate number of the tendered Notes and a statement
that the Holder is withdrawing all or a portion of the tender; 
 (12) the Company will purchase all Notes duly tendered and
not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer to Purchase; 
 (13) if any Note is purchased in part, new Notes equal in principal
amount to the unpurchased portion of the Note will be issued; and 
 (14) if any Note contains a CUSIP or CINS number, no
representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP or CINS number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the offer and that the Holder should rely only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. 

(c) Prior to the purchase date, the Company will accept tendered Notes for purchase as required by the Offer to Purchase and deliver to the
Trustee all Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate specifying which Notes have been accepted for purchase. On the purchase date the purchase price will become due and payable on each Note accepted for purchase, and interest on
Notes purchased will cease to accrue on and after the purchase date; provided, that the Company has not defaulted in depositing the purchase price in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Trustee will promptly return to Holders any Notes
not accepted for purchase and send to Holders new Notes equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes accepted for purchase in part. 

(d) The Company will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and all other applicable laws in making any Offer to Purchase, and the
above procedures will be deemed modified as necessary to permit such compliance, and the Company shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Indenture or the Notes as a result of such compliance.

Trustee (or Paying Agent) money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay such amounts, provided that if the Company or any Affiliate of the Company is acting as Paying 

  
 32 








 
Agent, it will, on or before each due date, segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders a sum of money sufficient to pay such amounts until paid to such Holders or
otherwise disposed of as provided in the Indenture. In each case the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its compliance with this paragraph. 

(b) An installment of principal or interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Trustee (or Paying Agent, other than the Company or
any Affiliate of the Company) holds on that date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment. If the Company or any Affiliate of the Company acts as Paying Agent, an installment of principal or interest will be considered paid on the

installments of interest at the rate per annum specified in the Notes. 
 (d) Payments in respect of the Notes represented by the Global

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be surrendered or presented for any

provided that the Company is not required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the existence of any Subsidiary, if the maintenance or preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company
and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole; and provided further that this Section does not prohibit any transaction otherwise permitted by Article 5. 

Section 4.04. Limitation on Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur or
permit to exist any Liens of any nature whatsoever that secure Debt on any of its properties or assets, whether owned at the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, other than Permitted Liens, without effectively providing that the Notes are secured
equally and ratably with (or, if the obligation to be secured by the Lien is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or any Note Guaranty, prior to) the obligations so secured for so long as such obligations are so secured. For purposes of
determining compliance with this Section, (A) a Lien securing an item of Debt need not be permitted solely by reference to one category (or portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens,” but may be permitted in
part under any combination thereof and (B) in the event that a Lien securing an item of Debt (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories (or portions thereof) of Permitted Liens, the Company shall, in its sole
discretion, divide, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify, or reclassify, such Lien securing such item of Debt (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies (based on circumstances existing at the time of such division,
classification or reclassification) with this Section. 
 Section 4.05. Limitation on Sale And Leaseback Transactions. The
Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction with respect to any property unless:

the Attributable Debt arising from such Sale and Leaseback Transaction; 

  
 34 








 (4) the Company or such Subsidiary within 360 days after the sale of such property in connection
with which such Sale and Leaseback Transaction is completed, applies an amount equal to the greater of (a) the net proceeds of the sale of such property or (b) the fair market value of such property to (i) the permanent retirement of
the Notes, other Debt of the Company ranking on a parity in right of payment with the Notes or Debt of a non-Guarantor Subsidiary or (ii) the purchase of property; or 

(5) the Attributable Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction and all other Sale and
Leaseback Transactions entered into after the Issue Date (other than any such Sale and Leaseback Transaction as would be permitted as described in clauses (1) through (4) of this Section 4.05), plus the aggregate principal amount of
Debt secured by Liens on properties then outstanding (not including any such Debt secured by Liens described in clauses (1) through (26) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”) which do not equally and ratably secure the
outstanding Notes (or secure the outstanding Notes on a basis that is prior to other Debt secured thereby), would not exceed the greater of $650.0 million and 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. 

Section 4.06. Guarantees by Domestic Subsidiaries. Each Domestic Subsidiary that Guarantees any Debt under the Credit Agreement on
the Issue Date shall guarantee the Notes pursuant to Article 10. If and for so long as any Domestic Subsidiary Guarantees, or any Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary Incurs, any Debt under the Credit Agreement or Guarantees or Incurs Debt after the
Issue Date under any other Credit Facility, such Domestic Subsidiary or Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall guarantee the Notes pursuant to Article 10. A Subsidiary required to provide a Note Guaranty shall execute a
supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B, and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee to the effect that the supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Subsidiary and constitutes a valid and binding
obligation of the Subsidiary, enforceable against the Subsidiary in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions). None of the Company’s current or future Foreign Subsidiaries shall be required to guarantee the Notes. 

Section 4.07. Repurchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control. Not later than 30 days following a Change of Control, the Company will
make an Offer to Purchase all outstanding Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of purchase.

Company were required to file such reports, and 
 (2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the
Commission on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports. 
 In addition, whether or not required by the Commission, the
Company will, if the Commission will accept the filing, file a copy of all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the
Commission’s rules and regulations. For purposes of this covenant, the Company will be deemed to have provided all required reports referred to in this covenant to the Trustee and the Noteholders as required by this covenant if it has timely
filed such reports with the Commission via the EDGAR filing system (or its successor system). 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Company will not be deemed to have failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Section for purposes of Section 6.01(4) until 90 days after the date any report hereunder is due. 

(b) For so long as any of the Notes remain outstanding and constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144, the Company will
furnish to the Holders of the Notes and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 

(c) Delivery of these reports and information to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of them will
not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely
exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
 Section 4.09. Reports to Trustee. (a) The Company and each Guarantor will
deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year a

Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Indenture and the Notes with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named
as the Company in the Indenture. Upon such substitution, except in the case of a lease, the Company will be released from its obligations under the Indenture and the Notes.

 38 








 unless: 

(A) the other Person is the Company or any Subsidiary that is a Guarantor or becomes a Guarantor concurrently with the

 (B) (1) either (x) the Guarantor is the continuing Person or (y) the resulting, surviving
or transferee Person expressly assumes by supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee all of the obligations of the Guarantor under its Note Guaranty; and 

(2) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default has occurred and is continuing; or 

(C) the transaction constitutes a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or

 (4) the
Company defaults in the performance of or breaches any other covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or under the Notes and the default or breach continues for a period of 60 consecutive days after written notice thereof to the Company

(5) there occurs with respect to any Debt of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries having an outstanding principal amount of
$100.0 million or more in the aggregate for all such Debt of all such Persons (i) an event of default that results in such Debt being due and payable prior to its scheduled maturity or (ii) a failure to make a principal payment when due
and such defaulted payment is not made, waived or extended within the applicable grace period; 
 (6) one or more final judgments or orders
for the payment of money are rendered against the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries and are not paid or discharged, and there is a period of 60 consecutive days following entry of the final judgment or order that causes the aggregate
amount for all such final judgments or orders outstanding and not paid or discharged against all such Persons to exceed $100.0 million (in excess of amounts which the Company’s insurance carriers have not challenged under applicable policies or
which indemnifying parties have not challenged under applicable third party indemnities) during which a stay of enforcement, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, is not in effect; 

(7) a decree or order for relief is entered against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (or a group of Subsidiaries that would, taken
together, be a Significant Subsidiary) in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (or a group of Subsidiaries that would, taken together, be a Significant Subsidiary) with respect to it or
its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, and such decree
or order remains in effect and unstayed for a period of 60 days; 
 (8) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (or a group of
Subsidiaries that would, taken together, be a Significant Subsidiary) (i) commences a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or consents to the entry of an order


  
 40 








 
for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, (ii) consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or

Significant Subsidiary) denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guaranty. 
 Section 6.02. Acceleration. (a) If
an Event of Default, other than a bankruptcy default with respect to the Company, occurs and is continuing under the Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice
to the Company (and to the Trustee if the notice is given by the Holders), may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon a
declaration of acceleration, such principal and interest will become immediately due and payable. If a bankruptcy default occurs with respect to the Company, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes then outstanding will become
immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 
 In the event of a declaration
of acceleration of the Notes solely because an Event of Default described in clause (5) above has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default or
payment default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (5) shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Significant Subsidiary of the Company or waived (and the related declaration of acceleration rescinded or annulled) by the
holders of the relevant Debt within 20 Business Days after the declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes and if the rescission and annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by the Trustee for the payment of amounts due on the Notes. 

  
 41 








 (b) The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to
the Company and to the Trustee may waive all past defaults and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences with respect to the Notes if 

(1) all existing Events of Default with respect to the Notes, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by the declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, 
 (2)
the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, and 
 (3) all sums paid
or advanced by the Trustee under the Indenture and the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Trustee, its agents and counsel have been paid. 

Section 6.03. Waiver of Past Defaults. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.02, 6.07 and 9.02, the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, by notice to the Trustee, waive an existing Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver, the Default will cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed to have been cured,
but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.04. Other
Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue, in its own name or as trustee of an express trust, any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of
principal of and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or the Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the
proceeding. 
 Section 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any
direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such
direction, and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes. 

  
 42 








 Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits. A Holder of Notes may not institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or the Notes, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Indenture or the Notes, unless: 

(1) the Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes;

 (2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes have made written request to the Trustee to
institute proceedings in respect of the Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; 
 (3) Holders have
offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liabilities or expenses to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such
proceeding; and 
 (5) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such written request. 
 Section 6.07. Rights of Holders to
Receive Payment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the right of a Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of or interest on its Note on or after the Stated Maturity thereof or on or after a redemption or repurchase date
therefor, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, may not be impaired or affected without the consent of that Holder. 

Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default in payment of principal or interest specified in clause
(1) or (2) of Section 6.01 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest
on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate specified in the Notes, and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder. 

Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents 

  
 43 








 
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Company or any Guarantor or their respective creditors or
property, and is entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money, securities or other property payable or deliverable upon conversion or exchange of the Notes or upon any such claims. Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, if the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay
to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder. Nothing in the Indenture will be deemed to empower the
Trustee to authorize or consent to, or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money
pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 
 First: to the Trustee for all amounts due to
it hereunder; 
 Second: to Holders of Notes in respect of which such money is collected for amounts then due and unpaid for
principal of and interest on the Notes, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest; and 

Third: to the Company or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 

The Trustee, upon written notice to the Company, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section.

 Section 6.11. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted a proceeding to enforce any
right or remedy under the Indenture and the proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to the Holder, then, subject to any determination in the proceeding, the Company, any
Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Company, any Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no
such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 6.12. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or
remedy under the Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any 

  
 44 








 
action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit (other than the Trustee) to file an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court may
assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, against any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in the suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section
does not apply to a suit by a Holder to enforce payment of principal of or interest on any Note on the respective due dates, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. 

Section 6.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy conferred or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under this
Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and all such rights and remedies are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or exercise of any other right or remedy. 

Section 6.14. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

Section 6.15. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company and each Guarantor covenants, to the extent that it may
lawfully do so, that it will not 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 or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company or the
Guarantor from paying all or any portion of the principal of, or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of the Indenture. The Company
and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will
suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

 ARTICLE 7 

THE TRUSTEE 

Section 7.01. General. (a) The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee are as provided by the Trust Indenture Act and as
set forth herein. Whether or not expressly so provided, every provision of the Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee is subject to this Article. 

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in the
Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into the Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise those rights and powers vested in it by the
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 his or her own affairs. 

(c) Except as provided in Section 315(d) of the Trust Indenture Act, no provision of the Indenture shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct. 
 Section 7.02.
Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to Trust Indenture Act Sections 315(a) through (d): 
 (1) In the absence of bad
faith on its part, the Trustee may rely, and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other
evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any document, but, in the case of any document
which is specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof, the Trustee shall examine the document to determine whether it conforms to the requirements of the Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the
accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). The Trustee, in its discretion, may make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it sees fit. 

(2) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel
conforming to Section 11.04 and the Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the certificate or opinion. 

  
 46 








 (3) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be
responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any attorney or agent appointed with due care. 
 (4) The Trustee will be
under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses
and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
 (5) The Trustee will not be
liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or for any action it takes or omits to take in accordance with the direction of the Holders in accordance with
Section 6.05 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under the Indenture. 

(6) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and
complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

(7) No provision of the Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 

(8) Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Indenture, any demand, instruction, request, direction or notice from the
Company shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 
 (9) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver
an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to the Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to
sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded. 

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

  
 47 








 (11) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or any Event
of Default unless either (i) an officer of the Trustee responsible for the administration of the Indenture shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (ii) written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall
have been given to the Trustee by the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, or by any Holder of the Notes. 
 (12) The
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder. 

(13) 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, without limitation, 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 which 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 Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the
same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(b) and 311. For purposes of Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b)(4) and (6): 

(a) “cash transaction” means any transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made within
seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand; and 

(b) “self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn,
negotiated or incurred for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing, manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession of, or a lien upon, the goods,
wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from 

  
 48 








 
the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship
arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation. 
 Section 7.04.
Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee (i) makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of the Indenture or the Notes, (ii) is not accountable for the Company’s use or application of the proceeds from the Notes and
(iii) is not responsible for any statement in the Notes other than its certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05. Notice
of Default. If any Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will send notice of the Default to each Holder within 90 days after it occurs, unless the Default has been cured; provided that, except in the
case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors of the Trustee or of officers of
the Trustee responsible for the administration of the Indenture in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders. Notice to Holders under this Section will be given in the manner and to the extent provided in
Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c). 
 Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each March 15,
beginning with March 15, 2016, the Trustee will mail to each Holder, as provided in Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c), a brief report dated as of such March 15 if required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a). 

Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Company will pay the Trustee compensation as agreed upon in writing for its
services. The compensation of the Trustee is not limited by any law on compensation of a Trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred
or made by the Trustee, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 (b) The Company will
indemnify the Trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any loss or liability or expense (including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel) incurred by it without negligence or bad faith on its part
arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Indenture and its duties under the Indenture and the Notes, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability and of complying with any
process served upon it or any of its officers in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under the Indenture and the Notes. 

  
 49 








 (c) To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee will have a
lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal of, and interest on particular Notes. 

(d) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section shall survive the payment of the Notes, the satisfaction and
discharge of the Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 Section 7.08. Replacement of Trustee.
(a) (1) The Trustee may resign at any time by written notice to the Company. 
 (2) The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by written notice to the Trustee. 
 (3) If the Trustee is
no longer eligible under Section 7.10 or in the circumstances described in Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b), any Holder that satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b) may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (4) The Company may remove the
Trustee if: (i) the Trustee is no longer eligible under Section 7.10; (ii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or (iv) the
Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section. 
 (b) If the Trustee has been removed by the Holders,
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may appoint a successor Trustee with the consent of the Company. Otherwise, if the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will
promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If the successor Trustee does not deliver its written acceptance within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (c) Upon
delivery by the successor Trustee of a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company, (i) the retiring Trustee will transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to


  
 50 








 
the lien provided for in Section 7.07, (ii) the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and (iii) the successor Trustee will have all the rights,
powers and duties of the Trustee under the Indenture. Upon request of any successor Trustee, the Company will execute any and all instruments for fully and vesting in and confirming to the successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts. The
Company will give notice of any resignation and any removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders, and include in the notice the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

(d) Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section
7.07 will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 (e) The Trustee agrees to give the notices provided for in, and otherwise
comply with, Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b), subject to its right to seek a stay of its duty to resign in accordance with the penultimate paragraph thereof. 

Section 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or national banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or national banking association without any further act will be the successor Trustee with
the same effect as if the successor Trustee had been named as the Trustee in the Indenture.

Indenture must always have a Trustee that satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a) and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $25,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

Section 7.11. Money Held in Trust. The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as it may agree

DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE 

Section 8.01. Discharge of Company’s Obligations. (a) Subject to paragraph (b), the Company’s obligations under the
Notes and the Indenture, and each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guaranty with respect to the Notes, will terminate if: 

(1) all Notes previously authenticated and delivered (other than (i) destroyed, lost or stolen Notes that have been
replaced or paid under Section 2.04 or (ii) Notes that are paid pursuant to Section 4.01 or (iii) Notes for whose payment money or U.S. Government Obligations have been held in trust and then repaid to the Company pursuant to Section 8.05)
have been cancelled or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and the Company has paid all sums payable by it hereunder; or 

(2) (A) the Notes mature within one year, or all of the Notes are to be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for giving the notice of redemption, 
 (B) the Company irrevocably deposits in
trust with the Trustee, as trust funds solely for the benefit of the Holders, money sufficient or U.S. Government Obligations, the principal of and interest on which will be sufficient, or a combination sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certificate delivered to the Trustee, which opinion need be given only if U.S. Government Obligations have been deposited, without consideration of any reinvestment, to pay
principal of and interest on the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, and to pay all other sums payable by it hereunder, 

(C) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable under the Indenture by the Company, 

(D) the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or
instrument (other than the Indenture) to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound, and 
 (E) the Company
delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture have been complied with. 

(b) After satisfying the conditions in clause (a)(1) of this Section 8.01, only the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 and Section
8.04 will survive. After satisfying the conditions in clause (a)(2) of this Section 8.01, only the Company’s obligations in Article 2 and Sections 4.02, 7.07, 7.08, 8.04, 8.05 and 8.06 will survive. In either case, the Trustee upon request will
acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture other than the surviving obligations. 

  
 52 








 Section 8.02. Legal Defeasance. Following the deposit referred to in clause
(1) of this Section 8.02, the Company will be deemed to have paid and will be discharged from its obligations in respect of the Notes and the Indenture with respect to such Notes, other than its obligations in Article 2 and Sections 4.02, 7.07,
7.08, 8.04, 8.05 and 8.06, and each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guaranty will terminate, provided the following conditions have been satisfied: 

(1) The Company has irrevocably deposited in trust with the Trustee, as trust funds solely for the benefit of the Holders,
money sufficient or U.S. Government Obligations, the principal of and interest on which will be sufficient, or a combination sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certificate thereof delivered to the Trustee, without consideration of any reinvestment, to pay principal of and interest on the Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, provided that any redemption before maturity has been
irrevocably provided for under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee. 
 (2) No Default has occurred and is continuing on
the date of the deposit (other than a Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings). 

(3) The deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Indenture (other than a Default
resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowings) or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 

(4) The Company has delivered to the Trustee 

(A) either (x) a ruling received from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the Holders will not recognize
income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would otherwise have been the case or (y) an Opinion
of Counsel, based on a change in law after the date of the Indenture, to the same effect as the ruling described in clause (x), and 

(B) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, and assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Company between the date of the
deposit and the 91st day following the date of deposit and that no Holder is an insider of the Company, after the passage of 91 days following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to
the effect of Section 547 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. 

  
 53 








 (5) If the Notes are listed on a national securities exchange, the Company has
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the deposit and defeasance will not cause the Notes to be delisted. 

(6) The Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that
all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the defeasance have been complied with. 
 Thereafter, the Trustee upon request
will acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture except for the surviving obligations specified above. 

Section 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. Following the deposit referred to in clause (1) of this Section 8.03, the Company’s
obligations set forth in Sections 4.04 through 4.07 inclusive and Section 5.01(a)(iii)(2) with respect to Notes, and each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guaranty, will terminate, and clauses (3), (4) (solely with respect to the
covenants being defeased), (5), (6) and (9) of Section 6.01 will no longer constitute Events of Default with respect to the Notes, provided the following conditions have been satisfied: 

(1) The Company has complied with clauses (1), (2), (3), 4(B), (5) and (6) of Section 8.02; and 

(2) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income,
gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would otherwise have been the case. 

Except as specifically stated above, none of the Company’s obligations under the Indenture will be discharged. 

Section 8.04. Application of Trust Money. Subject to Section 8.05, the Trustee will hold in trust the money or U.S. Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with it pursuant to Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, and apply the deposited money and the proceeds from deposited U.S. Government Obligations to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes
in accordance with the Notes and the Indenture. Such money and U.S. Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

  
 54 








 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on
or assessed against the money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the
account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
 Section 8.05. Repayment to Company. Subject to Sections 7.07, 8.01, 8.02 and
8.03, the Trustee will promptly pay to the Company upon request any money held by the Trustee at any time under Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, which in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (in case U.S. Government Obligations have been deposited) are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent discharge or defeasance under such
Sections and thereupon be relieved from all liability with respect to such money. The Trustee will pay to the Company upon request any money held for payment with respect to the Notes that remains unclaimed for two years, provided that before
making such payment the Trustee may at the expense of the Company publish once in a newspaper of general circulation in New York City, or send to each Holder entitled to such money, notice that the money remains unclaimed and that after a date
specified in the notice (at least 30 days after the date of the publication or notice) any remaining unclaimed balance of money will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to such money must look solely to the
Company for payment, unless applicable law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee with respect to such money will cease. 

Section 8.06. Reinstatement. If and for so long as the Trustee is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations held in
trust pursuant to Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s
obligations under the Notes and the Indenture will be reinstated as though no such deposit in trust had been made. If the Company makes any payment of principal of or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, it will be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held in trust. 

Section 8.07. U.S. Government Obligations. Any U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to this Article shall be
non-callable by the issuer thereof.

 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS 

Section 9.01. Amendments without Consent of Holders. The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the
Notes without notice to or the consent of any Noteholder 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in the
Indenture or the Notes; 
 (2) to comply with Article 5; 

(3) to comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust
Indenture Act; 
 (4) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of an appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee; 

(5) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, provided that the
uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code; 

(6) to provide for any Guarantee of the Notes, to secure the Notes or to confirm and evidence the release, termination or
discharge of any Guarantee of or Lien securing the Notes when such release, termination or discharge is permitted by the Indenture; 

(7) to provide for or confirm the issuance of Additional Notes; 

(8) to make any other change that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder; 

(9) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Noteholders; 

(10) to add additional Events of Default; or 

(11) to conform any provision hereof to the “Description of Notes” section in the Offering Memorandum. 

Section 9.02. Amendments with Consent of Holders. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.07 or
paragraph (b), the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture and the Notes with the written consent 

  
 56 








 
of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, and the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may waive
future compliance by the Company with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a),
without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not 
 (1) reduce the principal amount of or change
the Stated Maturity of any installment of principal of any Note, 
 (2) reduce the rate of or change the Stated Maturity of
any interest payment on any Note, 
 (3) reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the times at
which any Note may be redeemed or, once notice of redemption has been given, the time at which it must thereupon be redeemed, 

(4) after the time an Offer to Purchase is required to have been made, reduce the purchase amount or purchase price, or extend
the latest expiration date or purchase date thereunder, 
 (5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the
Note, 
 (6) impair the right of any Holder of Notes to receive any principal payment or interest payment on such
Holder’s Notes, on or after the Stated Maturity thereof or any redemption or repurchase date therefor, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, 

(7) make any change in the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes required for amendments or waivers, 

(8) modify or change any provision of the Indenture affecting the ranking of the Notes or any Note Guaranty in a manner adverse
to the Holders of the Notes, or 
 (9) make any change in any Note Guaranty that would adversely affect the Noteholders in
any material respect. 
 (c) It is not necessary for Noteholders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or
waiver, but is sufficient if their consent approves the substance thereof. 
 (d) An amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section will
become effective on receipt by the Company and the Trustee of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective,
the Company will send to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. The Company will send supplemental indentures to Holders upon request. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any
defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver. 

  
 57 








 Section 9.03. Effect of Consent. (a) After an amendment, supplement or waiver
becomes effective, it will bind every Holder unless it is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected. If the amendment, supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected, the amendment, supplement or
waiver will bind each Holder that has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the consenting Holder. 

(b) If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee so that
the Trustee may place an appropriate notation of the changed terms on the Note and return it to the Holder, or exchange it for a new Note that reflects the changed terms. The Trustee may also place an appropriate notation on any Note thereafter
authenticated. However, the effectiveness of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Notes in this fashion. 

Section 9.04. Trustee’s Rights and Obligations. The Trustee is entitled to receive, and will be fully protected in relying
upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article is authorized or permitted by the Indenture. If the Trustee has received such an Opinion of Counsel, it shall sign the
amendment, supplement or waiver so long as the same does not adversely affect the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee under the Indenture or otherwise. The Trustee may, but is not obligated to, execute any amendment, supplement or waiver
that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture or otherwise. 
 Section 9.05. Payments for
Consents. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries may, 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 the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or agreed to be paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend such term or provision within the time
period set forth in the solicitation documents relating to the consent, waiver or amendment.

 ARTICLE 10 

GUARANTEES 

Section 10.01. The Guarantees. Subject to the provisions of this Article, each Guarantor party to the Indenture and each Guarantor
that executes a supplemental indenture after the Issue Date in the form of Exhibit B hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment (whether at Stated Maturity,
upon redemption, purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase or acceleration, or otherwise) of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and all other amounts payable under, each Note, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts
payable by the Company under the Indenture. Upon failure by the Company to pay punctually any such amount, each Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in the Indenture. The Note
Guaranty of each Guarantor shall be a guarantee of payment and not of collection. 
 Section 10.02. Guaranty Unconditional. The
obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected (except in accordance with Section 10.09) by 

(1) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Company under the
Indenture or any Note, by operation of law or otherwise; 
 (2) any modification or amendment of or supplement to the
Indenture or any Note; 
 (3) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Company, or any
insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Company or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Company contained in the Indenture or any Note; 

(4) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at
any time against the Company, the Trustee or any other Person, whether in connection with the Indenture or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein prevents the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory
counterclaim; 
 (5) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Company for any reason of the Indenture or
any Note, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Company of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under the Indenture; or 

(6) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Company, the Trustee or any other Person or any other
circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. 

  
 59 








 Section 10.03. Discharge; Reinstatement. Subject to Section 10.09, each
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder will remain in full force and effect until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Indenture have been paid in full. If at any time
any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under the Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the
Company or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 

Section 10.04. Waiver by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any
notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Company or any other Person. 

Section 10.05. Subrogation and Contribution. Upon making any payment with respect to any obligation of the Company under this
Article, the Guarantor making such payment will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Company with respect to such obligation, provided that the Guarantor may not enforce either any right of subrogation, or any right to receive
payment in the nature of contribution, or otherwise, from any other Guarantor, with respect to such payment so long as any amount payable by the Company hereunder or under the Notes remains unpaid. 

Section 10.06. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Company under the
Indenture or the Notes is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Indenture are nonetheless payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on
demand by the Trustee or the Holders. 
 Section 10.07. Limitation on Amount of Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Article, each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guaranty of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance


  
 60 








 
under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. To effectuate that intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the
Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guaranty are limited to the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance
provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. 
 Section 10.08. Execution and Delivery
of Guaranty. The execution by each Guarantor of the Indenture or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B evidences the Note Guaranty of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds
that office at the time of authentication of any Note. The delivery of any Note by the Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Note Guaranty set forth in the Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor. 

Section 10.09. Release of Guaranty. The Note Guaranty of a Guarantor will terminate upon 

(1) a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of Capital Stock of the Guarantor if, as a result
of such disposition, such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (other than to the Company or a Subsidiary) is otherwise permitted by the Indenture, 

(2) the release of the Guarantee by such Guarantor of Debt under the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Facility to which
it becomes a party after the Issue Date, other than a discharge through payment thereon, and such Guarantor is no longer an obligor under any such Credit Facility, or 

(3) defeasance or discharge of the Notes, as provided in Article 8. 

Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the foregoing effect, the Trustee
will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guaranty.

with respect to the Indenture 

  
 61 








 
or the Notes are as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and the Company and the Trustee shall comply with the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Sections 312(a) and 312(b). Neither the Company
nor the Trustee will be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of Holders made pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act. 

(b) (1) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent to amendment, supplement or waiver or other action
provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by a Holder (an “act”) may be evidenced by an instrument signed by the Holder delivered to the Trustee. The fact and date of the execution of the instrument, or the authority of the
person executing it, may be proved in any manner that the Trustee deems sufficient. 
 (2) The Trustee may make reasonable
rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders, which will be binding on all the Holders. 
 (c) Any act by the Holder of any Note binds
that Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the acting Holder, even if no notation thereof appears on the Note. Subject to paragraph (d), a Holder may revoke an act as to its Notes, but only if the
Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver or other consequence of the act becomes effective. 
 (d)
The Company may, but is not obligated to, fix a record date (which need not be within the time limits otherwise prescribed by Trust Indenture Act Section 316(c)) for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to act with respect to any
amendment or waiver or in any other regard, except that during the continuance of an Event of Default, only the Trustee may set a record date as to notices of default, any declaration or acceleration or any other remedies or other consequences of
the Event of Default or related directions or waivers. If a record date is fixed, those Persons that were Holders of the applicable Notes at such record date and only those Persons will be entitled to act, or to revoke any previous act, whether or
not those Persons continue to be Holders after the record date. No act will be valid or effective for more than 90 days after the record date. 

  
 62 








 Section 11.02. Notices. (a) Any notice or communication to the Company will be
deemed given if in writing (i) when delivered in person or (ii) five days after mailing when mailed by first class mail, or (iii) when sent by facsimile transmission, with transmission confirmed. Notices or communications to a
Guarantor will be deemed given if given to the Company. Any notice to the Trustee shall be in writing and will be effective only upon receipt. In each case the notice or communication should be addressed as follows: 

if to the Company: 

Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc., 

4101 Washington Avenue 
 Newport
News, Virginia 23607 
 (757) 380-2000 

Attention: Treasurer 
 if to
the Trustee: 
 The Bank of New York Mellon 

101 Barclay Street, Floor 7E 
 New
York, New York 10286 
 (212) 815-5707 

The Company or the Trustee by notice to the other may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications. 

The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to the Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile
transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that (a) the party providing such electronic instructions or directions, subsequent to the transmission thereof, shall provide the originally executed instructions
or directions to the Trustee in a timely manner and (b) such originally executed instructions or directions shall be signed by an authorized representative of the party providing such instructions or directions. The Trustee shall not be liable
for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions or directions notwithstanding such instructions or directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent
written instruction or direction or if the subsequent written instruction or direction is never received. The party providing instructions or directions by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods, as
aforesaid, agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of
interception and misuse by third parties. 
 (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to published notices, any notice or
communication to a Holder will be deemed given when mailed to the Holder at its address as it appears on the Register by first class mail or, as to any Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, as agreed by the Company, the Trustee
and DTC. Copies of any notice or communication to a Holder, if given by the Company, will be mailed to the Trustee at the same time. Defect in mailing a notice or communication to any particular Holder will not affect its sufficiency with respect to
other Holders. 
 (c) Where the Indenture provides for notice, the notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such
notice, either before or after the event, and the waiver will be the equivalent of the notice. Waivers of notice by Holders must be filed with the Trustee, but such filing is not a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance
upon such waivers. 

  
 63 








 Section 11.03. Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent. Upon any
request or application by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under the Indenture, the Company will furnish to the Trustee: 

(1) an Officers’ Certificate stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent, if any, provided for
in the Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and 
 (2) an Opinion of Counsel stating that all
such conditions precedent have been complied with. 
 Section 11.04. Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each
certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in the Indenture must include: 

(1) a statement that each person signing the certificate or opinion has read the covenant or condition and the related
definitions; 
 (2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statement
or opinion contained in the certificate or opinion is based; 
 (3) a statement that, in the opinion of each such person,
that person has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable the person to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and 

(4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of each such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with,
provided that an Opinion of Counsel may rely on an Officers’ Certificate or certificates of public officials with respect to matters of fact. 

Section 11.05. Payment Date Other Than a Business Day. If any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any
Note (including any payment to be made on any date fixed for redemption or purchase of any Note) is due on a day which is not a Business Day, then the payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on such date, and no interest will accrue on the payment so deferred for the intervening period. 

  
 64 








 Section 11.06. Governing Law; Waiver of Trial by Jury. The Indenture,
including any Note Guaranty, and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Each of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders
hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture, the Note Guaranty or the Notes. 

Section 11.07. No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. The Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture
or loan or debt agreement of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, and no such indenture or loan or debt agreement may be used to interpret the Indenture. 

Section 11.08. Successors. All agreements of the Company or any Guarantor in the Indenture and the Notes will bind its
successors. All agreements of the Trustee in the Indenture will bind its successor. 
 Section 11.09. Duplicate
Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of the Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 

Section 11.10. Separability. In case any provision in the Indenture or in the Notes is invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 

Section 11.11. Table of Contents and Headings. The Table of Contents and headings of the Articles and Sections of the
Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of the Indenture and in no way modify or restrict any of the terms and provisions of the Indenture. 

Section 11.12. No Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees, Incorporators, Members and Stockholders. No director,
officer, employee, incorporator, member, general or limited partner or stockholder past, present and future, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the
Notes, any Note Guaranty or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes.
