quarters ending immediately prior to such date for which Required Financial Statements have been delivered. 
 In the event that the Issuer
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (i) incurs, assumes, guarantees, redeems, retires or extinguishes any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness repaid, redeemed, retired or extinguished under any revolving credit facility, except to the
extent such revolving credit facility is permanently reduced and has not been replaced) or (ii) issues or redeems Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, in each case subsequent to the period for which the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is
being calculated but prior to or substantially simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is made (the “Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio Calculation Date”), then (x) the
Consolidated Total Net Debt shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock, as if the same had occurred as of the date of determination of Consolidated Total Net Debt referred to in clause (1) above and (y) the Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such
incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred as of the beginning of the applicable four fiscal
quarter period. 
 For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers,

company, a segment, an operating division or unit or line of business that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has determined to make and/or made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or
prior to or simultaneously with the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio Calculation Date (each, for purposes of this definition, a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such
Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became
a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have made or effected 

  
 10 








 
any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or discontinued operation, in each case with respect to a business (as such term is used in Regulation S-X Rule 11-01), a company, a segment, an operating division or unit or line of business that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition,
then the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or discontinued operation had occurred at the
beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. 
 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a
transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the good faith determination of
the Issuer as set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, to reflect reasonably identifiable and factually supportable operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies reasonably expected to result from any action taken or
expected to be taken within 18 months after the date of any pro forma event; provided that (x) no such amounts shall be included pursuant to this paragraph to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise
added back in computing Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA with respect to such period and (y) such amounts shall be subject to the limitations contained in clause (J) of the definition of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. 

If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be
calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). 

“Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio” means, as of the date of determination, the ratio of (1) the Consolidated
Total Net Debt of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries that is secured by a Lien on any property or assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date, to (2) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of the Issuer and its
Restricted Subsidiaries for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters ending immediately prior to such date for which Required Financial Statements have been delivered, in each case with such pro forma adjustments to the Consolidated Total
Net Debt and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio as determined in good faith by the Issuer; provided, however,
that solely for purposes of the calculation of the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio, in connection with the incurrence of (x) any Indebtedness pursuant to clause (1)(B)(ii) of Section 4.09(b) and any Lien pursuant to clause
(36) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” and (y) any Lien pursuant to clause (37) of the definition of “Permitted Liens,” the Issuer may elect, pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee,
to treat all or any portion of the commitment under any Indebtedness which is to be incurred and/or secured by such Lien, as the case may be, as being incurred at such time and any subsequent incurrence of Indebtedness under such commitment shall
not be deemed, for purposes of this calculation, to be an incurrence at such subsequent time.

Debt” means, as of any date of determination, the sum, without duplication, of (1) the total amount of (A) Indebtedness for borrowed money, (B) Indebtedness evidenced by bonds, notes (other than notes in favor of trade

(E) guarantees of the foregoing, in each case, of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding (x) Indebtedness in respect of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances (or, without duplication, reimbursement agreements in

(z) Indebtedness in respect of Hedging Obligations not yet due and owing), outstanding on such date; minus (2) up to $250,000,000 of Eligible Cash included in the consolidated balance sheet of the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries, as of the most recently ended fiscal period for which Required Financial Statements have been delivered (with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth
in the definition of “Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio” as determined in good faith by the Issuer); plus (3) the greater of (i) the aggregate liquidation value and (ii) maximum fixed repurchase price without regard to
any change of control or redemption premiums of all Disqualified Stock of the Issuer and the Guarantors and all Preferred Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of this
definition, the “maximum fixed repurchase price” of any Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that does not have a fixed repurchase price shall be calculated in accordance with the terms of such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock as if
such Disqualified Stock 

  
 11 








 
or Preferred Stock were purchased on any date on which Consolidated Total Net Debt shall be required to be determined pursuant to this Indenture, and if such price is based upon, or measured by,

(i) “furnish to the Trustee” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “or electronically transmit”; 

(j) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to
this Indenture as a whole and not any particular Article, Section, clause or other subdivision; and 
 (k) Indebtedness that is unsecured
shall not be deemed to be subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, and Indebtedness shall not be deemed to be subordinated or junior to any other Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect
to the same collateral. 
 SECTION 1.05 Acts of Holders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing.
Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in
the manner provided in this Section 1.05. 
 (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may
be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged
to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by or on behalf of any legal entity other than an individual, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute proof of the authority of the Person executing the same. The fact and date of the
execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the Trustee deems sufficient. 

(c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register. 

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Note shall bind every future
Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon,
whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. 
 (e) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, set a record date for
purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take any other act, or to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted to be given
or taken by Holders. Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Issuer prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, any such record date shall
be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation. 

(f) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action under this Indenture with regard to any particular Note may do so
with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or action
taken by a Holder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this Section 1.05 shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part. 

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including the Depositary, may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly
appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders, and the Depositary may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial
owners of interests in any such Global Note through such depositary’s standing instructions and customary practices. 

  
 32 








 (h) The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of
determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by the Depositary entitled under the procedures of such Depositary to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only
such Persons, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. 

SECTION 1.06 Financial Calculations for Limited Condition Transactions. 

With respect to any (x) acquisition or similar Investment by the Issuer or one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries whose consummation
is not conditioned upon the availability of, or on obtaining, third-party financing (whether by merger, consolidation or other business combination or the acquisition of Capital Stock or otherwise) (any such acquisition or Investment, a
“Limited Condition Acquisition”) or (y) repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness with respect to which an irrevocable notice of repayment (or similar irrevocable notice) has been delivered (any such notice, an
“Irrevocable Notice Transaction”), in each case, for purposes of determining: 
 (a) whether any Indebtedness (including
Acquired Indebtedness) that is being incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition or Irrevocable Notice Transaction is permitted to be incurred in compliance with Section 4.09 hereof; 

(b) whether any Lien being incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition or Irrevocable Notice Transaction or to secure any
such Indebtedness is permitted to be incurred in accordance with Section 4.12 hereof or the definition of “Permitted Liens”; 

(c) whether any other transaction undertaken or proposed to be undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition or Irrevocable
Notice Transaction complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or the Notes; and 
 (d) any calculation of the
Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio, Net Income, Consolidated Net Income and/or Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and, whether a Default or Event of Default exists in connection with the foregoing, 

at the option of the Issuer, using the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is entered into or the date
that an irrevocable notice is given for such Irrevocable Notice Transaction, as the case may be (any such date, the “LCT Election Date”) may be used as the applicable date of determination, as the case may be, in each case with such
pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of “Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio” or “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.” For the avoidance
of doubt, if the Issuer elects to use the LCT Election Date as the applicable date of determination in accordance with the foregoing, (a) any fluctuation or change in the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio,
Net Income, Consolidated Net Income, and/or Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of the Issuer, the target business or assets to be acquired subsequent to the LCT Election Date and at or prior to the consummation of such acquisition or similar Investment or
repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness, will not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether any Indebtedness or Lien that is being incurred in connection with such acquisition or similar Investment or repayment,
repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness is permitted to be incurred or in connection with compliance by the Issuer or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries with any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes or any other transaction undertaken in
connection with such acquisition or similar Investment or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness and (b) until such acquisition or similar Investment or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness is consummated or such
definitive agreements are terminated, such acquisition or similar Investment or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection therewith (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and
Liens) will be given pro forma effect when determining compliance of other transactions (including the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens unrelated to such acquisition or similar 

  
 33 








 
Investment or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness) that are consummated after the LCT Election Date and on or prior to the consummation of such acquisition or similar Investment
or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness and any such transactions (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) will be deemed to have occurred on the date the definitive agreements are entered and
outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios under this Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such acquisition or similar Investment or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of
Indebtedness; provided that in connection with the making of Restricted Payments, the calculation of Consolidated Net Income (and any defined term a component of which is Consolidated Net Income) will not, in any case, assume such acquisition or
similar Investment has been consummated. In addition, this Indenture provides that compliance with any requirement relating to absence of Default or Event of Default may be determined as of the LCT Election Date and not as of any later date as would
otherwise be required under this Indenture. In the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken on the same date that any
other item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any other Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken, then the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio or Consolidated Secured Net
Leverage Ratio will be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without regard to any other incurrence, issuance or transaction. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is incurred or
issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio or Consolidated Secured Net Leverage
Ratio. 
 SECTION 1.07 Currencies. For purposes of any determination under Article IV expressly requiring the use of a current
exchange rate, all amounts incurred, outstanding or proposed to be incurred or outstanding in currencies other than U.S. dollars shall be translated into U.S. dollars at currency exchange rates in effect on the date of such determination; provided,
however, that for purposes of determining compliance with this Indenture with respect to the amount of any Permitted Lien, Indebtedness, Asset Sale, Restricted Payment, Affiliate Transaction, Permitted Investment or Permitted Payment in a currency
other than U.S. dollars, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of exchange occurring after the time such Permitted Lien or Indebtedness is incurred or Asset Sale, Restricted Payment,
Affiliate Transaction, Permitted Investment or Permitted Payment is made; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.07 shall otherwise apply to such Sections, including with respect to determining
whether any Permitted Lien or Indebtedness is incurred or Asset Sale, Restricted Payment, Affiliate Transaction, Permitted Investment or Permitted Payment is made at any time under such Sections. In addition, to the extent that the size of any
basket or carve-out set forth under Article IV is determined by reference to a percentage of Four-Quarter EBITDA, a percentage of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio, no
Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to occur with respect to any transaction consummated or incurred pursuant to such basket or carve-out as a result of any decrease in the amount of Four-Quarter
EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio subsequent to such consummation or incurrence which results in such basket or carve-out no longer being sufficient to permit
such transaction or incurrence. 
 ARTICLE II 

The Notes 
 SECTION 2.01
Form and Dating; Terms. (a) General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock
exchange rules or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuer). Each Note shall be dated the date of the Trustee’s authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and
integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. 
 (b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form
of Exhibit A attached hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Increases or Decreases of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form
of Exhibit A attached hereto (but without the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of Increases or Decreases of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding
Notes as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount of Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented


  
 34 








 
thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges, repurchases and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or
decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee as Registrar (or if the Trustee and the Registrar are not the same Person, by the Registrar at the direction of the Trustee), in
accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06. 
 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) Terms. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. 

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and the Issuer, the
Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this
Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuer
pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 4.10 or a Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 4.13. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article III. 

Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Issuer without notice to
or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the other Notes (including any Initial Notes or other Additional Notes) and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as such Notes (other
than date of issue and, if applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue and the first date on which payment thereof shall be made); provided that the Issuer’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the
Issuer’s compliance with Section 4.09. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture. In authenticating such Additional Notes, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this
Indenture in relation to such Additional Notes, the Trustee shall receive and be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel which shall state: 

(1) that the form and terms of such Additional Notes has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
and 
 (2) that such Additional Notes, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the
manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other
laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 
 (e)
Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of
Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream. 

SECTION 2.02 Execution and Authentication. At least one Officer shall execute the Notes by manual or facsimile signature. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be
valid. 
 A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, by the manual signature of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.


  
 35 








 On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order (an “Authentication
Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes. In addition, at any time, from time to time, the Trustee shall upon receipt of an Authentication Order and an Opinion of Counsel authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes for an
aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such Additional Notes issued under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may
appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication
by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Issuer. 
 SECTION 2.03
Registrar and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain (i) a registrar with an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and (ii) a paying agent with an
office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall maintain a register reflecting ownership of the Notes outstanding from time to time (“Note Register”) and upon
written request from the Issuer, the Registrar shall provide the Issuer with a copy of the Note Register. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term
“Registrar” includes any co-registrar. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agents. The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee as (i) Registrar and
Paying Agent and (ii) the Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. The Issuer may change the Paying Agents or the Registrars without prior notice to the Holders. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any
Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as a Paying Agent or a Registrar. All Agents
appointed under this Indenture shall be appointed pursuant to agency agreements among the Issuer, the Trustee and the Agent, as applicable. 

The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global
Notes. 
 SECTION 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Issuer shall require the Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree
in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by
the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee.
Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a
separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. To the extent that the Paying
Agent receives any amounts pursuant to this Section 2.04 and such amounts are remitted to the Holders, the Trustee and Paying Agent shall have no further obligations with respect thereto. 

SECTION 2.05 Holder Lists. The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list
available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and, if this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two
Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and the
Issuer shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). 
 SECTION 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. (a) Transfer and Exchange of
Global Notes. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.06, a Global Note may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor thereto or a nominee of such successor. A beneficial
interest in a Global Note shall be exchangeable for a Definitive Note if (A) (i) the Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note or (ii) the Depositary has ceased to be a
clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days of such notice, (B) the Issuer, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects
to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes or (C) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to 

  
 36 








 
the Notes and the Depositary has requested the issuance of Definitive Notes. Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in (A), (B) or (C) above, Definitive Notes delivered in
exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance with its Applicable Procedures). Global Notes also may
be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or
Section 2.07 or 2.10, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, except for Definitive Notes issued subsequent to any of the preceding events in (A), (B) or (C) above and pursuant to
Section 2.06(c). A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a); provided, however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in
Section 2.06(b) or (c). 
 (b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of
beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. None of the Issuer or any of its agents, the Trustee or the Registrar shall 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 for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act, or for complying with or ensuring compliance with any
Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in Global Notes shall be transferred or exchanged only for beneficial interests in Global Notes pursuant to this clause (b). Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require
compliance with either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as, if applicable, one or more of the other following subparagraphs: 

(i) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be
transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend. Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted
Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. Except as required pursuant to the Private Placement Legend, no written orders or instructions shall be required
to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(i). 
 (ii) All Other
Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.06(b)(i), the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to
the Registrar (in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer) either: 
 (A) (1) a written
order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to
the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase; or 

(B) (1) if Definitive Notes are at such time permitted to be issued under this Indenture, a written order from a Participant or
an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and
(2) instructions given by the Depositary to the Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. 

Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer by the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.06(f) hereof, the requirements of this
Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon receipt by the Registrar of the instructions contained in the Letter of Transmittal delivered by the Holder of such beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes. Upon
satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the
relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(h). 

  
 37 








 (iii) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note to Another
Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the
requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) and the Registrar receives the following: 
 (A) if the transferee will take
delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a 144A Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; or 

(B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, then the
transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof. 

(iv) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted
Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial
interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) and: 

(A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to the Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement
and the Holder of the beneficial interest to be transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in the case of a transfer, certifies in the applicable Letter of Transmittal that it is not (i) a Broker-Dealer, (ii) a Person
participating in the distribution of the Exchange Notes or (iii) a Person who is an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144) of the Issuer; 

(B) such transfer is effected pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the Registration Rights
Agreement; 
 (C) such transfer is effected by a Broker-Dealer pursuant to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement in
accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement; or 
 (D) the Registrar receives the following: 

(i) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a
beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, a certificate from such Holder substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, including the certifications in item (1)(a) thereof; or 

(ii) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to transfer such beneficial interest to a
Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, a certificate from such holder in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (4) thereof; 

and, in each case set forth in clause (D) of this Section 2.06(b)(iv), if the Registrar or the Issuer so requests or if the
Applicable Procedures so require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Registrar and the Issuer to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer
contained herein and in the Private Placement Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. 

  
 38 








 If any such transfer is effected pursuant to clause (B) or (D) of this
Section 2.06(b)(iv) at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more
Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to clause (B) or (D) of this Section 2.06(b)(iv). 

(v) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in a Restricted
Global Note Prohibited. Beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of, beneficial interests in a Restricted Global Note. 

(c) Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests for Definitive Notes. Beneficial interests in Global Notes shall be exchanged for
Definitive Notes only pursuant to this clause (c). 
 (i) Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Notes to
Restricted Definitive Notes. If any holder of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Restricted Definitive Note or to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery
thereof in the form of a Restricted Definitive Note, then, upon the occurrence of any of the events in clause (A), (B) or (C) of Section 2.06(a), subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.06(b)(ii) and
receipt by the Registrar of the following documentation: 
 (A) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted
Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Restricted Definitive Note, a certificate from such holder substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, including the certifications in item (2)(a) thereof; 

(B) if such beneficial interest is being transferred to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A, a certificate substantially in
the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; 
 (C) if such beneficial interest
is being transferred to a Non-U.S. Person in an offshore transaction in accordance with Rule 903 or Rule 904, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the
certifications in item (2) thereof; 
 (D) if such beneficial interest is being transferred pursuant to an exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (3)(a) thereof; 

(E) if such beneficial interest is being transferred to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, a certificate substantially in
the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (3)(b) thereof; or 
 (F) if such beneficial
interest is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (3)(c) thereof, the Trustee shall
cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 2.06(h), and the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail to the Person designated in the instructions a
Definitive Note in the applicable principal amount. Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized
denomination or denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the Registrar through instructions from the Depositary and the Participant or Indirect Participant. The Trustee shall mail such Definitive Notes to the Persons in
whose names such Notes are so registered. Any Definitive Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.06(c)(i) shall bear the Private Placement Legend and shall be subject to all
restrictions on transfer contained therein. 

  
 39 








 (ii) [Reserved]. 

(iii) Beneficial Interests in Restricted Global Notes to Unrestricted Definitive Notes. A holder of a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Global Note may exchange such beneficial interest for an Unrestricted Definitive Note or may transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Definitive Note only upon

(h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been
exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11.
At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes or a
particular Global Note has been redeemed or repurchased in part, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at
the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global

(i) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 

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

connection with a transfer of Notes.

pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.10, 4.10, 4.13 and 9.04). 
 (iv) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be
required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note selected for redemption. 
 (v) All Global Notes and Definitive
Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or
Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 (vi) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer
shall be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed, (B) to register the transfer or exchange of any Note
selected for redemption, (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or (D) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes selected for redemption or

the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes,
and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (viii) The Trustee shall
authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02. 
 (ix) [reserved].

 (x) Neither the Registrar nor the Trustee shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to

any Global Notes) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine
substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 
 (xi) Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have
any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary. 
 (xii) The Trustee and the Registrar
shall be entitled to receive such evidence as may be reasonably requested to establish the identity and/or signature of any transferee or transferor. 

SECTION 2.07 Replacement Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Registrar or the Issuer and the Trustee
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s and the
Issuer’s requirements are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any
of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its expenses (including the expenses of the Trustee) in replacing a Note. 

Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and

those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note. 

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser as such term is defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York. 

If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to
accrue from and after the date of such payment. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary of the Issuer or an Affiliate of
any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date, purchase date in connection with an offer to repurchase or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer
outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 

  
 47 








 SECTION 2.09 Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal
amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes beneficially owned by the Issuer, or by any Affiliate of the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Notes that are to be acquired by
the Issuer, any Subsidiary of the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer pursuant to an exchange offer, tender offer or other similar agreement shall not be deemed to be owned by the Issuer, a Subsidiary of the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer
until legal title to such Notes passes to the Issuer, such Subsidiary or such Affiliate, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 2.10 Temporary
Notes. Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of
certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate
definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be
entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture. 
 SECTION 2.11
Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee
or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of cancelled Notes in accordance
with its customary procedures. Confirmation of the disposal of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Issuer upon its written request. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation. 
 SECTION 2.12 Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall
pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest to Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01.
The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be
less than ten days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written
request of the Issuer, the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, (or otherwise deliver in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) to each Holder a
notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon
registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue interest, which were carried by such other Note. 

SECTION 2.13 CUSIP/ISIN Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers, as applicable, (if then generally in
use) and, if so, the Trustee may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers, as applicable, in notices to Holders as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may 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 and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or other action shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such
numbers. The Issuer will as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN Code numbers, as applicable. Additional Notes will not be issued with the same CUSIP, if any, as any existing Notes unless such
Additional Notes are fungible with such existing Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 ARTICLE III 

Redemption 
 SECTION 3.01
Notices to Trustee. If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least five Business Days (or such later date acceptable to the Trustee) before notice of redemption is required to be
mailed or caused to be mailed (or otherwise sent in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) to the applicable Holders pursuant to Section 3.03, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (i) the paragraph or
subparagraph of such Note and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption Date (subject to any conditions precedent applicable thereto), (iii) the principal amount of the Notes to be

will be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than one Business Day prior to the Redemption Date. 

SECTION 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased. If the Issuer is redeeming or repurchasing less than all of the Notes at
any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed on a pro rata basis (or as nearly pro rata as practicable) or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, unless otherwise required by law or the rules of
the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or by lot or such other similar method, all in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary; provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be
redeemed or repurchased in part. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase
and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no
Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or
purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 

SECTION 3.03 Notice of Purchase or Redemption. The Issuer shall mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail (or otherwise delivered
in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary), notices of purchase or redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the purchase date or Redemption Date to each Holder at such Holder’s
registered address or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, except that redemption notices may be mailed (or otherwise sent in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) more
than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article VIII or Article XI. If any Note is to be purchased or redeemed in part only, any notice of purchase or redemption that relates to such
Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that is to be purchased or redeemed. The Issuer shall issue a new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note in the name of the Holder upon
cancellation of the original Note. The notice shall identify the Notes (including the CUSIP or ISIN number) to be purchased or redeemed and shall state: 

(A) subject to clause (I) below, the purchase date or Redemption Date; 

(B) the purchase or redemption price (or manner of calculation if not then known); 

(C) if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that has been or is to be
purchased or redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, the Issuer will issue a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of
the original Note; 
 (D) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

  
 49 








 (E) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to
collect the redemption price; 
 (F) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes
called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date; 
 (G) the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes
and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for purchase or redemption are being redeemed; 
 (H)
that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, as applicable, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes; and 

(I) any condition to such redemption. 

At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of purchase or redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense;
provided that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least five Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed (or sent or caused to be sent in accordance with the applicable procedures
of the Depositary) to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated
in such notice as provided in this Section 3.03. 
 Notice of any redemption of the Notes (including upon an Equity Offering or in
connection with a transaction (or series of related transactions) or an event that constitutes a Change of Control) may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof and any such redemption or notice
may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of the related transaction or event, as the case may be. In addition, if such redemption or purchase is
subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time (including more
than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption was mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in
the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed, or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Issuer’s discretion if in the good faith judgment of the
Issuer any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by
another Person. 
 SECTION 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Subject to the last paragraph of Section 3.03 and the terms of
the applicable redemption notice (including any conditions contained therein) once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the
redemption price, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent to the redemption. The notice, if provided in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In
any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of the Notes designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Notes. Subject to
Section 3.05, on and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption. 

SECTION 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the purchase date or Redemption
Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Paying Agent shall promptly return to the
Issuer any money deposited with the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

  
 50 








 If the Issuer complies with the provisions of this Section 3.05, on and after the purchase
date or Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of the Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date,
then any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption or purchase date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so
paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with this Section 3.05, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and to the
extent lawful on any interest accrued to the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. 

SECTION 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall
issue and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed
or purchased; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication
Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note. 
 SECTION 3.07
Optional Redemption. (a) Prior to February 1, 2021, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon notice as described in Section 3.03, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of Holders of record on
the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
 (b) On and after February 1, 2021, the
Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon notice as described in Section 3.03, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below
plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, if
redeemed during the twelve month period beginning on February 1 of each of the years indicated below:

	 2024 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (c) Until February 1, 2021, the Issuer may, at any time and from time to time, upon notice as described
in Section 3.03, redeem up to 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a redemption price equal to 106.875% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but
excluding, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, in an amount no greater than the aggregate cash proceeds received from
one or more Equity Offerings; provided that (1) at least 60.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (including any Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption and
(2) each such redemption occurs within 120 days of the closing of such Equity Offering. 
 (d) In addition to clauses
(a) through (c) above, in connection with any tender offer for the Notes (including, without limitation, any Change of Control Offer), if Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and
do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a such tender offer in lieu of the Issuer, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will
have the right upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem (with respect to the Issuer) or purchase (with respect to a third party) all Notes that remain
outstanding following such purchase at a price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer (which may be less than par) plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
thereon, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

  
 51 








 SECTION 3.08 Sinking Fund. The Issuer shall not be required to make any mandatory
redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 SECTION 3.09 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 3.10 Offers to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds. 

(a) In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10, the Issuer shall be required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, it shall follow the
procedures specified below. 
 (b) The Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement
and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the
Issuer shall apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Notes and, if required by the terms of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, such Pari Passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis, if applicable), or, if less
than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes and Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. 

(c) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, up to but excluding the Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset
Sale Offer. 
 (d) Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall send, by first-class mail (or otherwise sent in accordance
with the applicable procedures of the Depositary), a notice to each of the Holders, with a copy mailed or electronically transmitted to the Trustee and Agents. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders
to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders and, if required by the terms of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness. The notice, which shall govern the terms of
the Asset Sale Offer, shall state: 
 (i) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.10 and
Section 4.10 and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open; 
 (ii) the Offer Amount, the purchase price
and the Purchase Date;

 (v) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an
Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000; 

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

  
 52 








 (viii) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Pari Passu
Indebtedness surrendered by the Holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer or the agent for such Pari Passu Indebtedness shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis
(or as nearly pro rata as practicable) based on the amount of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered, unless otherwise required by law or the rules of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes or such Pari
Passu Indebtedness are listed or by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary; provided that no notes of $2,000 or less shall be repurchased in part; and 

(ix) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes (or their interests shall otherwise be
adjusted in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer) representing the same indebtedness to the extent not
repurchased. 
 (e) On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, (1) accept for payment, on a pro rata
basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof validly tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered and (2) deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Trustee the Notes (or portions thereof in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof so
tendered. 
 (f) The Issuer shall cause an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes properly tendered by such Holder and accepted by
the Issuer for purchase to be remitted to each tendering Holder, and the Issuer shall, if the Notes are issued in definitive form, promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate and mail or
deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to
authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided that each such new Note shall be in a
principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale
Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date. 
 Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.10 and
Section 4.10, any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06. 

ARTICLE IV 
 Covenants 

SECTION 4.01 Payment of Notes. The Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on
the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary, holds as of 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on
the due date money deposited by the Issuer in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. In any case where an Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or any other stated
maturity of any payment required to be made on the Notes shall not be a Business Day, then each such payment need not be made on such date, but shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such
Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or stated maturity of such payment and no additional interest shall be payable as a result of such delay in payment. 

The Issuer shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate
equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent
lawful. 

  
 53 








 All references to “interest” on the Notes in this Indenture will be deemed to include
all Special Interest payable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, if any. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event the Issuer is required to pay Special Interest, the Issuer will provide written notice to the
Trustee of the Issuer’s obligation to pay Special Interest no later than 15 days prior to the next Interest Payment Date (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Trustee), which notice shall set forth the amount of the Special Interest
to be paid by the Issuer (but the failure to provide such notice shall not affect the Issuer’s obligation to pay such Special Interest when due). The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holders to determine
whether any Special Interest is payable or the amount thereof. 
 SECTION 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuer shall
maintain the office or agency required under Section 2.03 (which may be an office of the Trustee or an Affiliate of the Trustee) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange. The Issuer shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such
presentations and surrenders may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
 The Issuer may also from time to time
designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any
manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency required under Section 2.03. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any
such other office or agency. 
 The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such office or agency of the
Issuer in accordance with Section 2.03. 
 SECTION 4.03 Reports and Other Information. (a) If, at any time, the Issuer is
subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall file with the SEC, subject to the following sentence, and provide the Trustee (to the extent not publicly available on the SEC’s EDGAR
system (or any successor system) or the Issuer’s website) (and, upon written request, the Holders, to the extent not publicly available on the SEC’s EDGAR system (or any successor system) or the Issuer’s website) such annual and other
reports as are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation subject to such Sections, such reports to be so filed and provided at the times specified for the filings by the Issuer of such
reports under such Sections and containing, in all material respects, the information and audit reports required for such reports. If, at any time, the Issuer is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason,
the Issuer shall provide the Trustee and make available to Holders, prospective investors, market makers affiliated with any Initial Purchaser and securities analysts the reports specified in the preceding sentence by posting such reports to its
website or on IntraLinks or any comparable password-protected online data system, in each case, within 15 days after the time the Issuer would be required to file such information with the SEC if it were a
non-accelerated filer subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) none of the foregoing reports (A) shall be required to comply with Section 302,
Section 404 or Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or related Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC, (B) shall be required to comply with
Regulation G or Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC (with respect to any non-GAAP financial measures contained therein), (C) shall be
required to contain the separate financial information for Guarantors and non-guarantor subsidiaries contemplated by Rule 3-10 of
Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC, (D) shall be required to present compensation or beneficial ownership information and (E) shall be required to contain information required by
Item 601 of Regulation S-K and (2) if any parent of the Issuer becomes a guarantor of the Notes, the reports, information and other documents required to be filed and provided as described above
may be those of the parent, rather than those of the Issuer, so long as such filings would satisfy the SEC’s requirements; provided that such reports include a reasonable explanation of the material differences between the assets,
liabilities and results of operations of such parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries on the other hand. 

  
 54 








 (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, the Issuer shall not be deemed to
have failed to comply with any of its obligations described under this Section 4.03 for purposes of Section 6.01(a)(3) until 120 days after the date any report under this Section 4.03 is due. To the extent any such
information is not so filed or provided, as applicable, within the time periods specified in Section 4.03(a) and such information is subsequently filed or provided, as applicable, the Issuer shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations
with respect thereto at such time and any Default or Event of Default with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been cured at such time; provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders under Article VI if Holders
of at least 25% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes have declared the principal of accrued but unpaid and interest on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately and such declaration shall not have been
rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure. 
 (c) At any time when the Issuer is not subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, furnish to the Holders and
to prospective investors, upon their written request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 

(d) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under this Indenture is for informational purposes only and the information
and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, or determinable from information contained therein including the Issuer’s compliance with any of the covenants under
this Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate). The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to determine whether any filing or posting referred to in this Section 4.03 has
occurred. 
 SECTION 4.04 Compliance Certificate. (a) The Issuer and each Guarantor (to the extent that such Guarantor is so
required under the TIA) shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after the Issue Date, an Officer’s Certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer or the
principal accounting officer that, as to such Officer signing such certificate, to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every condition and covenant contained in this Indenture and is not
in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default shall have occurred and is continuing, describing all such Defaults of which he or she may have knowledge).

 (b) The Issuer shall, within 30 days after becoming aware of any Default, deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified
mail or by electronic transmission an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default. 
 SECTION 4.05 Taxes. The Issuer shall
pay, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate negotiations or proceedings or where the
failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 
 SECTION 4.06 Stay, Extension and
Usury Laws. The Issuer and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension
or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive
all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that they shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law has been enacted. 
 SECTION 4.07 Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: 
 (1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or
distribution on account of the Issuer’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests, including any dividend, payment or distribution payable in connection with any merger or consolidation, other than: 

  
 55 








 (A) dividends, payments or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than
Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer; or 
 (B) dividends, payments or distributions by a Restricted Subsidiary so long as, in
the case of any dividend, payment or distribution payable on or in respect of any class or series of securities issued by a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Subsidiary, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary receives at least its pro
rata share of such dividend, payment or distribution in accordance with its Equity Interests in such class or series of securities; 
 (2)
purchase, redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity Interests of the Issuer (including in connection with any merger or consolidation), to the extent held by a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted
Subsidiary; 
 (3) make any principal payment on, or purchase, redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, in each
case prior to any scheduled repayment, sinking fund payment or maturity, any Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor other than the payment, purchase, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or retirement of: 

(A) Indebtedness permitted under Section 4.09(b)(7); or 

(B) Subordinated Indebtedness in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity,
in each case due within one year of the date of purchase, redemption, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or retirement; or 
 (4) make any
Restricted Investment 
 (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as
“Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of such Restricted Payment: 
 (1) no Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; 
 (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis, the
Issuer could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a); and 

(3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries (and not rescinded or refunded) after the Issue Date (including Restricted Payments permitted by clause (1) of Section 4.07(b), but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.07(b)), is less than the
sum of (without duplication): 
 (A) (i) 100% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of the Issuer for the period (taken as one
accounting period) beginning on the first day of the fiscal quarter during which the Issue Date occurs to the end of the Issuer’s most recently completed fiscal quarter for which Required Financial Statements have been delivered at the time of
such Restricted Payment, minus 
 (ii) the product of 

(x) 1.4 and 

(y) Consolidated Interest Expense of the Issuer for the same period (taken as one accounting period); plus 

(B) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds and the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of marketable
securities or other property received by the Issuer from the issuance or sale of Equity Interests of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock or Refunding Capital Stock) or 

  
 56 








 
otherwise contributed to the equity (other than through an issuance of Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer after the Issue Date (other than an issuance or sale to a Subsidiary of the Issuer or an
issuance or sale to an employee stock ownership plan or other trust established by the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent funded by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries); plus 

(C) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds and the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of marketable
securities or other property received by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from the issuance or sale (other than to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer or to an employee stock ownership plan or other trust established by the

have been required to pay in respect of such taxable income if such entities were a standalone group of corporations separate from such Tax Group (it being understood and agreed that, if the Issuer or any Subsidiary pays any portion of such tax
liabilities directly to any taxing authority, a Restricted Payment in duplication of such amount shall not be permitted to be made pursuant to this clause (12));

(c) The Issuer will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the last sentence of the
definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the
Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be an Investment in an 

  
 59 








 
amount determined as set forth in the definition of “Investment.” Such designation will be permitted only if an Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time, whether as a
Restricted Payment or a Permitted Investment, and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the covenants set forth in this Indenture.

date of such Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be paid, transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. 

(f) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.07, in the event that a proposed Restricted Payment or Investment (or a
portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in clauses (1) through (15) of Section 4.07(b) above and/or one or more of the clauses contained in the definition of “Permitted
Investments,” or is entitled to be made pursuant to Section 4.07(a), the Issuer will be entitled to divide or classify (or later divide, classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such Restricted Payment or
Investment (or portion thereof) among such clauses (1) through (15) of Section 4.07(a) and/or one or more of the clauses contained in the definition of “Permitted Investments,” in a manner that otherwise complies with this
covenant. 
 (g) For the avoidance of doubt, this covenant shall not restrict the making of any “AHYDO
catch-up payment” with respect to, and required by the terms of, any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries permitted to be incurred under this Indenture. 

SECTION 4.08 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or 
 (B) pay any Indebtedness owed to the
Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

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

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

  
 60 








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

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

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

debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness;

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

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

(14) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the Capital Stock or the assets of a Restricted Subsidiary to
the extent it restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending such sale or other disposition; 
 (15) customary provisions
imposed on the transfer of copyrighted or patented materials;

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

  
 61 








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

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

SECTION 4.09 Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock. (a) The Issuer shall
not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable for (collectively, “incur” and collectively, an
“incurrence”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) and the Issuer shall not issue any shares of Disqualified Stock and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue any shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock; provided, however, that the Issuer may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), issue

Section 4.09(b) and will not later be reclassified. 
 (d) Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value and the
payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, of the same class, and accretion of original issue
discount or liquidation preference will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to,
Indebtedness which is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by
such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 4.09. 
 (e) [Reserved.] 

(f) The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the
Indebtedness being Refinanced, shall be calculated by the Issuer based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated as in effect on the date of such Refinancing. 

(g) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness)
that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s
Guarantee, in all material respects, to the extent and in the manner as such Indebtedness is so subordinated to other Indebtedness of the Issuer or such Guarantor, as the case may be. 

SECTION 4.10 Asset Sales. (a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an
Asset Sale, unless: 
 (1) the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such
Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(2) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, in the Issuer’s good faith determination, at least 75% of the consideration
therefor received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of: 

  
 65 








 (A) any liabilities (as shown on the Issuer’s most recent consolidated
balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto, or if incurred or accrued subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on the Issuer’s consolidated balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto if such
incurrence or accrual had taken place on or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than Contingent Obligations and liabilities that are by their terms
subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets (or are otherwise extinguished by the transferee in connection with the transactions relating to such Asset Sale) and for which the Issuer and all such
Restricted Subsidiaries have been released, 
 (B) any notes or other obligations or securities received by the Issuer or
such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, or by their terms are required to be satisfied for cash or Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the cash or
Cash Equivalents received), in each case, within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale, and 
 (C) any
Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer taken together with
all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at that time outstanding (but, to the extent that any such Designated
Non-Cash Consideration is sold or otherwise liquidated for cash, minus the lesser of (i) the amount of the cash received (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (ii) the initial amount of
such Designated Non-Cash Consideration) not to exceed $150,000,000 at the time of receipt, with the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value, 

shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision and for no other purpose. 

(b) Within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its
option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, 
 (1) to permanently reduce: 

(A) Obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto, 

(B) Obligations under Pari Passu Indebtedness that are secured by a Lien, which Lien is permitted by this Indenture, and to
correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto, 
 (C) Obligations under the Notes (provided that such
purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or any other Pari Passu Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto, if applicable); provided that if such Net
Proceeds are applied to other Pari Passu Indebtedness (other than the Senior Credit Facilities or other Secured Indebtedness) then the Issuer shall (i) equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes (x) as provided under
Section 3.07 or (y) through open market purchases (provided that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or (ii) make an offer (in accordance with clauses (c), (d) and (e) of
this Section 4.10) to all Holders of Notes to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of Notes that would otherwise be redeemed
under clause (i) of this clause (C), or 
 (D) Indebtedness of a
Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 

(2) to (A) make an Investment in any one or more businesses; provided that such Investment in any business is in the form of the
acquisition of Capital Stock and results in the Issuer or any of its Restricted 

  
 66 








 
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) make capital expenditures or (C) acquire,
maintain, develop, construct, improve, upgrade or repair businesses, properties and/or assets (other than Equity Interests in a Person that is not, or does not as a result of any such acquisition become, a Restricted Subsidiary) that, in the case of
each of (A), (B) and (C) are either (x) used or useful in a Similar Business or (y) replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; 

provided that, in the case of clause (2) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date
of such commitment so long as the Issuer or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment
(an “Acceptable Commitment”); and provided further that if any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess
Proceeds if not otherwise applied as provided above within 450 days of the receipt of such Net Proceeds; or 
 (3) any combination
of the foregoing. 
 (c) Any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set
forth in Section 4.10(b) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”. When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50,000,000, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes
and, if required by the terms of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000
and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and such Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any (or, in respect of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for or permitted by the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance
with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. 
 (d) The Issuer shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within
ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $50,000,000 by mailing (or otherwise delivering in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy
mailed or electronically transmitted to the Trustee. 
 (e) To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu
Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the aggregate
amount (determined as above) of Notes and the Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered in an Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer or the agent for such Pari Passu Indebtedness shall
select such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis (or as nearly pro rata as practicable) based on the amount (determined as set forth above) of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered, unless otherwise required by
law or the rules of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes or such Pari Passu Indebtedness are listed or by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary;
provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be repurchased in part. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. The Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, at its option in its sole
discretion, may make an Asset Sale Offer and satisfy the obligations described under this Section 4.10 with respect to any Excess Proceeds prior to the amount of Excess Proceeds exceeding $50,000,000, in which case, upon completion of any such
Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reduced by the amounts of such Excess Proceeds. If any Excess Proceeds remain after the completion of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries may use those Excess
Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. 
 (f) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to
this Section 4.10, the holder of such Net Proceeds may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this
Indenture. 

  
 67 








 (g) The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to
an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof. 
 SECTION 4.11 Transactions with Affiliates. (a) The
Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or
amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or
consideration in excess of $25,000,000, unless: 
 (1) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms, taken as a whole, that are not materially
less favorable to the Issuer or its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; 
 (2) any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions
involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $100,000,000 is approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Issuer; and 

(3) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee, with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving
aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $200,000,000, an opinion as to the fairness to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an Independent Financial Advisor. 

(b) Section 4.11(a) shall not apply to the following: 

(1) transactions between or among the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including transactions between or among the Issuer’s
Restricted Subsidiaries) (or an entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of, or in connection with, such transaction, so long as neither such entity nor the selling entity was an Affiliate of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary
prior to such transaction); 
 (2) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.07 or Permitted Investments; 

(3) the payment of reasonable fees and compensation paid to, and indemnities and reimbursements and employment, benefit and severance

(4) (A) any agreement or arrangement as in effect as of the Issue Date (or transactions pursuant thereto), (B) any other agreements or
arrangements pursuant to or in connection with the Transactions or (C) any amendment, modification or supplement to the agreements referenced in clause (A) or (B) above or any replacement thereof, as long as the terms of such
agreement or arrangement, as so amended, modified, supplemented or replaced are not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders when taken as a whole compared to the applicable agreements or arrangements as in effect on the Issue Date or as
described in the Offering Memorandum, as applicable, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 
 (5) [reserved]; 

(6) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, or transactions otherwise relating to the
purchase or sale of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, which are fair to the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the
Board of Directors of the Issuer or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party; 

  
 68

each case, are approved by the Issuer in good faith; 
 (10) transactions with joint ventures for the purchase or sale of goods, equipment
and services entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
 (11) transactions in which the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the
case may be, has delivered to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of clause (1) of
Section 4.11(a); 
 (12) the issuances of securities or other payments, loans (or cancellation of loans), awards or grants in cash,
securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, benefit plans, equity plans, stock option and stock ownership plans or similar employee benefit plans approved by the Board of Directors of the Issuer in good faith;

 (13) any transaction with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because
the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries owns an Equity Interest in or otherwise controls such Person; 
 (14) any transaction in
which the only consideration paid by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in the form of Equity Interest (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Issuer to Affiliates of the Issuer or any contribution to the capital of the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary (other than in consideration of Disqualified Stock); 
 (15) the provision to Unrestricted Subsidiaries of cash

 69 








 (20) (A) the guarantee by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Indebtedness of any
parent company of the Issuer that becomes the parent company of the Issuer in a Change of Control transaction consummated in accordance with this Indenture, or of any Indebtedness of Subsidiaries of such parent company; provided that such
guarantee was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred and (B) the granting by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Liens to secure such Indebtedness or such guarantee; provided that such Liens are
permitted to be incurred under this Indenture. 
 SECTION 4.12 Liens. The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee, on any asset or property of the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary whether now owned or hereafter acquired, unless: 
 (1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes are
(or in the case of a Lien on any asset or property of such Guarantor, its Guarantee is) secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens; or 

(2) in the case of Liens securing any other Indebtedness, the Notes are (or in the case of a Lien on any asset or property of such Guarantor,
its Guarantee is) secured by an equal and ratable (or prior ranking) Lien on such property, assets or proceeds. 
 Any Lien created for the
benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the applicable Lien described in clauses (1) and (2) of this
Section 4.12. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.12, a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not
be permitted solely by reference to the second preceding paragraph of this Section 4.12 or to one category (or portion thereof) of the Permitted Liens described in clauses (1) through (38) of the definition of “Permitted
Liens” but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof. 
 With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted
to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in
the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the

definition of “Indebtedness”. 
 SECTION 4.13 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. (a) If a Change of Control
occurs after the Issue Date, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed (or otherwise sent in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under
Section 3.07, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal
to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest
due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed (or otherwise sent in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) a
redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described in Section 3.07 or the Issuer has previously made a Change of Control Offer in connection with such Change of Control, the Issuer shall send notice of such Change of
Control Offer by first-class mail, with a copy mailed or electronically transmitted to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the security register or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of
the Depositary, with the following information: 

  
 70 








 (1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.13 and that,
subject to Section 4.13(a)(7), all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment by the Issuer; 

(2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which will, subject to Section 4.13(a)(7), be no earlier than 30 days nor later
than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 
 (3) that any Note not
properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest; 
 (4) that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the
Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuer to purchase such Notes;
provided that the paying agent receives, not later than the expiration time of the Change of Control Offer, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for
purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased; 
 (6) that if
the Holders tender less than all of the Notes, the Holders of the remaining Notes will be issued new Notes and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes
must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; 
 (7) if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a
Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until
such time as the Change of Control shall occur, or that such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that the Issuer shall determine that such condition will not be satisfied by the Change of Control Payment Date or by
the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed; and 
 (8) the other instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this
Section 4.13, that a Holder must follow. 
 The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a
Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to
have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue thereof. 
 (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the
extent permitted by law, 
 (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer,

 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof
so tendered, and 
 (3) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an
Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer. 

(c) [Reserved]. 

  
 71 








 (d) The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of
Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.13 and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change
of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at
the time of the making of the Change of Control Offer. 
 (e) Notes repurchased by the Issuer pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will
have the status of Notes issued but not outstanding or will be retired and canceled at the option of the Issuer. Notes purchased by a third party pursuant to Section 4.13(d) will have the status of Notes issued and outstanding unless
transferred to the Issuer. 
 SECTION 4.14 Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries. The Issuer shall not
permit any Subsidiary that is a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Guarantor to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor unless (x) the aggregate amount of all such Indebtedness guaranteed by Restricted
Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors does not exceed $50,000,000 or (y): 
 (1) the aggregate amount of all such Indebtedness guaranteed by
Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors exceeds $50,000,000; 
 (2) within 45 days after the date that such Indebtedness
is guaranteed, such Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with
respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor: 
 (A) if the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee
is subordinated in right of payment to such Indebtedness, the Guarantee under the supplemental indenture shall be subordinated to such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee with respect to such Indebtedness substantially to the same extent as the
Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee is subordinated to such Indebtedness; and 
 (B) if such Indebtedness is by its
express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Restricted
Subsidiary’s Guarantee of the Notes substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee; and 

(3) the Issuer shall within such 45 days deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) such Guarantee has been duly
executed and authorized and (B) such Guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary, except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including all
laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general principles of equity; 
 provided that this
Section 4.14 shall not be applicable to any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a
Restricted Subsidiary. The Issuer may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause any Subsidiary that is not otherwise required to be a Guarantor to become a Guarantor, in which case such Subsidiary shall not be required to comply with
the 45 day periods described in this Section 4.14. 
 SECTION 4.15 Suspension of Certain Covenants. (a) If at any
date following the Issue Date, (1) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies and (2) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture a “Covenant Suspension Event” shall be deemed to
have occurred. Beginning on the day of a Covenant Suspension Event and ending on a Reversion Date (such period a “Suspension Period”) with respect to the Notes, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to
Section 4.07, Section 4.08, Section 4.09, Section 4.10, Section 4.11, Section 4.14, Section 4.16, Section 4.17 and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) (collectively, the “Suspended
Covenants”). 

  
 72 








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

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

(d) Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments in Section 4.07 will be made as
though Section 4.07 had been in effect since the Issue Date (but not during the Suspension Period); provided that, during the Suspension Period the Issuer shall not designate any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be Unrestricted
Subsidiaries unless the Issuer would have been permitted to designate such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if a Suspension Period had not been in effect for any period. In addition, for purposes of Section 4.11, all agreements,
arrangements and transactions entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with an Affiliate of the Issuer during the applicable Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to have been entered into on or prior
to the Issue Date, and for purposes of Section 4.08, all contracts entered into during the applicable Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by such covenant will be deemed to have been
existing on the Issue Date. For purposes of Section 4.10, on the Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero. 

(e) The Issuer shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate notifying it of any Covenant Suspension Event and
reinstatement of Suspended Covenants on a Reversion Date under this Section 4.15. The Trustee shall not have any duty to monitor whether or not a Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date has occurred or if a Suspension Period has commenced
or ended, nor any duty to notify the noteholders of any of the foregoing. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the reinstatement of the Suspended
Covenants on a Reversion Date, no Default or Event of Default or breach of any kind under this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees shall be deemed to have occurred on such Reversion Date as a result of any actions taken by the Issuer or its
Restricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period (or upon the termination of the Suspension Period or thereafter based solely on events that occurred during the Suspension Period) to the extent such actions were permitted under this Indenture
during the Suspension Period, and none of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for any actions taken or events occurring during the applicable Suspension Period to the extent such actions were permitted under this Indenture
during the Suspension Period, regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. On and after each Reversion Date, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries shall
be permitted to consummate the transactions contemplated by any contract entered into during any Suspension Period so long as such contract and such consummation would have been permitted during such Suspension Period. 

SECTION 4.16 Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
directly or indirectly, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction; provided, that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a Sale and Lease-Back Transaction if: 

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

  
 73 








 (2) the transfer of assets in such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction is permitted by, and the
Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with, Section 4.10. 
 SECTION 4.17

Issuer shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Issuer), and may exercise every right and power of the Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Issuer herein; provided that
the predecessor Issuer shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes except in the case of a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all of the assets of the predecessor

 ARTICLE VI 

Defaults and Remedies 

SECTION 6.01 Events of Default. (a) An “Event of Default” wherever used herein means any one of the following
events with respect to the Notes: 
 (1) default in payment when due and payable, upon redemption, acceleration or otherwise, of principal
of the Notes; 
 (2) default for 30 days or more in the payment when due of interest on or with respect to the Notes; 

  
 75 








 (3) failure by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary for 60 days after receipt of
written notice given by the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with any of its other obligations, covenants or agreements (other than a default referred to in clause (1)
or (2) of this Section 6.01(a)) contained in this Indenture or the Notes; 
 (4) default under any mortgage, indenture or
instrument under which there is issued or by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or is created after the issuance of the Notes, if both: 

(A) such default either results from the failure to pay any principal of such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after
giving effect to any applicable grace periods) or relates to an obligation other than the obligation to pay principal of any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the holder or holders of such Indebtedness causing such
Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; and 
 (B) the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with
the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregate $150,000,000 or
more; 
 (5) failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $150,000,000 (other than
any judgments covered by indemnities provided by, or insurance policies issued by, reputable and creditworthy companies), which final judgments remain unpaid, undischarged and unstayed for a period of more than 60 days after such judgment
becomes final, and in the event such judgment is not covered by an indemnity or insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or decree which is not promptly stayed; 

(6) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 

(i) commences proceedings to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent; 

(ii) consents to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, or the filing by it of a petition or
answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under applicable Bankruptcy Law; 
 (iii) consents to the appointment of a
receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or other similar official of it or for all or substantially all of its property; 

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or 

(v) makes an admission in writing of its inability generally to pay its debts as they become due; 

(7) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: 

(i) is for relief against the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary in a proceeding in which the Issuer or any Significant
Subsidiary is to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent; 
 (ii) appoints a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or other
similar official of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary; or 

(iii) orders the liquidation of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary; 

  
 76 








 
and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or 

(8) the Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary shall for any reason cease to be in full force and effect (except as otherwise not prohibited
by this Indenture) or be declared null and void or any responsible officer of such Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary denies that it has any further liability under its Guarantee or gives notice to such effect, in each case other than by
reason of the termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture. 
 (b) The Trustee may
withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. 

SECTION 6.02 Acceleration. (a) If any Event of Default (other than of a type specified in clause (6) or (7) of
Section 6.01(a) with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes) or the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on, all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. 

Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal and any accrued and unpaid interest on all the then outstanding Notes will be due
and payable immediately. The Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if in the reasonable judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the best interest of the Holders of the Notes. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clause (6) or (7) of Section 6.01(a) with
respect to the Issuer, the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on, all the then outstanding Notes shall become due and payable without further action or notice. 

SECTION 6.03 Other Remedies. Subject to the duties of the Trustee as provided for in Article VII, if an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay
or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are
cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 SECTION 6.04 Waiver of Defaults. (a) Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture, except a continuing Default or Event of Default
in the payment of interest on or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting Holder, and rescind any acceleration and its consequences with respect to the Notes (except if such recession would conflict
with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 
 (b) In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of
Section 6.01(a), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by
the Trustee or the Holders, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose: 
 (1) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the
basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; or 
 (2) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or
action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or 
 (3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
cured. 

  
 77 








 SECTION 6.05 Control by Majority. Holders of a majority in principal amount of the total
outstanding Notes may direct in writing the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any
direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or the Notes or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of a Note (it being understood that the Trustee has no affirmative duty to ascertain whether or
not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Indenture. 
 SECTION 6.06 Limitation on Suits. Subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the duties of
the Trustee hereunder, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of the Notes unless
the Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal or interest when due, no Holder of a Note may pursue any
remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event
of Default is continuing with respect to the Notes; 
 (2) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the total outstanding Notes
have requested the Trustee in writing to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) Holders of the Notes have offered the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such written request
within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense; and 
 (5)
Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of the total outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

SECTION 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any
Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer), or to bring suit
for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 

SECTION 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1)or (2) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer and any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid
on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation of the Trustee and the reasonable
and documented out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, in each case as set forth in Section 7.07. 

SECTION 6.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the
Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions under this Indenture and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding has been instituted. 
 SECTION 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,


  
 78 








 
and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given under this Indenture or now or hereafter existing at law or
in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

SECTION 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or
remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall 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 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as
may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial
proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such
matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in
the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same
shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of
reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 

SECTION 6.13 Priorities. If the Trustee or any Agent collects any money pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money in
the following order: 
 (i) to the Trustee, the Agents, their agents and attorneys for amounts due under this Indenture,
including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee or any Agent and the costs and expenses of collection; 

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

(iii) to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct including a Guarantor, if applicable.

 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.13. Promptly after any
record date is set pursuant to this Section 6.13, the Trustee shall cause notice of such record date and payment date to be given to the Issuer and to each Holder. 

SECTION 6.14 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable
costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a
suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 

  
 79 








 ARTICLE VII 

Trustee 
 SECTION 7.01
Duties of Trustee. (a) During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall exercise such rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill as a prudent person would exercise or use

Event of Default: 
 (i) the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and

provision are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates, opinions or other such instruments to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm
or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculation or other facts stated therein). 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from

by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such
facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost

knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event that is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 
 (h) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for
special, indirect, punitive 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

 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 Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is

responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s
direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any
statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 

SECTION 7.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to
Holders of Notes a notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of
any continuing Default if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be deemed to know of any Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless
written notice of any event that is such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.06
Reports by Trustee to Holders. If this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, then within 60 days after each November 15 beginning with November 15, 2018, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee will mail or deliver
electronically to the Holders a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the 12 months preceding the reporting date, no
report need be transmitted). If this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, the Trustee also will comply with TIA § 313(b). If this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, the Trustee will also transmit by mail or deliver electronically all
reports in the manner required by TIA § 313(c). 
 SECTION 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 

(a) The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services under this
Indenture as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall
include the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

(b) The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee for, and hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all
loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it (as evidenced in an
invoice from the Trustee) in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties under this Indenture (including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer or any of the
Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or any Guarantor, or liability in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
under this Indenture). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations under this Indenture. The Issuer shall
defend the claim and the Trustee shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Issuer’s expense in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not reimburse
any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or negligence or any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 (c) The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the
earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. 

  
 82 








 (d) To secure the payment obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Section 7.07,
the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture. 
 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(6) or
(7) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 

(f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable. 

SECTION 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become
effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if: 

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

(b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

 (c) a receiver, custodian or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 

(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer. 

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

If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10,
such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 A
successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the
rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee;
provided all sums owing to the Trustee under this Indenture have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations
under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. If
the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or national banking association, the successor corporation or national banking association without any
further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to
the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver
such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor under this Indenture or in the name of the
successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 

  
 83 








 SECTION 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. There shall at all times be a Trustee under
this Indenture that is a corporation or national banking association organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

This Indenture will always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to
TIA§ 310(b). 
 SECTION 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. The Trustee is subject to TIA § 311(a),
excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 

SECTION 7.12 Email. U.S. Bank National Association (in each of its capacities, “U.S. Bank”) agrees to accept and act
upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture or any documents executed in connection herewith sent by unsecured email, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods, provided, however, that any person providing
such instructions or directions shall provide to U.S. Bank an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to provide such instructions or directions (including the email addresses of such persons), which incumbency certificate shall be amended
whenever a person is added or deleted from the listing. If such person elects to give U.S. Bank email (of .pdf or similar files) or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and U.S. Bank in its discretion elects to act
upon such instructions, U.S. Bank’s reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. U.S. Bank shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from U.S. Bank’s reliance upon
and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Any person providing such instructions or directions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the
use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to U.S. Bank, including without limitation the risk of U.S. Bank acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 Legal Defeasance
and Covenant Defeasance 
 SECTION 8.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuer may, at its option
and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article VIII. 

SECTION 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this
Section 8.02, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to this Indenture, all outstanding Notes and
Guarantees and to have cured all then existing Events of Default on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid
and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in
(a) and (b) below, to have satisfied all their other obligations under the Notes and this Indenture including that of the Guarantors and to have cured all then existing Events of Default (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of
the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged under this Indenture: 

(a) the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such
payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to Section 8.05 and the Notes; 

  
 84 








 (b) the Issuer’s obligations pursuant to Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.07, 2.08, 2.10
and 4.02 and the Notes; 
 (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s obligations in
connection therewith; and 
 (d) the provisions of this Section 8.02 and the Notes. 

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option under Section 8.03. 
 SECTION 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under
Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained
in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.16 and 4.17 and clauses (4) and (5) of Section 5.01(a), Sections 5.01(b) and 5.01(c) with respect to the outstanding Notes on and
after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are 104 satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and such Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or
declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes under this Indenture (it being understood that such Notes shall not
be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to such outstanding Notes, the Issuer or any Guarantor, as applicable, may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of
any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in
any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and the Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition,
upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, Sections 6.01(a)(3), 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(5), 6.01(a)(6)
(solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(a)(7) (solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries) and 6.01(a)(8) shall not constitute Events of Default. 

SECTION 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either
Section 8.02 or 8.03 to the outstanding Notes: 
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect
to this Indenture and the Notes: 
 (1) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the
Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of Independent Financial Advisors, to pay the principal amount of, premium, if
any, and interest due on the Notes on the stated maturity date or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be, of such principal amount, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to
maturity or to a particular Redemption Date; 
 (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, 
 (a) the Issuer
has received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or 
 (b) since the issuance of the
Notes, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon, such Opinion of
Counsel shall confirm that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as applicable, as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be
subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 

  
 85 








 (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant
Defeasance and will be subject to such tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(4) no Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit
relating to other Indebtedness, and, in each case the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit with respect to this Indenture and the Notes; 

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the Senior Credit
Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from borrowing of funds to be applied
to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 

(6) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the
intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or any Guarantor or others; and 
 (7) the Issuer shall
have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal
Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with. 
 SECTION 8.05 Deposited Money and Government
Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.04 shall
be held in trust and applied by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) to the Holders of
the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. 
 The Issuer shall pay
and indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 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 8.06 Repayment to
Issuer. Anything in this Article VIII or Article XI to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly deliver or pay to the Issuer upon request any money or Government Securities held by it in
accordance with this Article VIII or Article XI which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent (which may be
the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1)), are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance, Covenant Defeasance or discharge in accordance with Article XI. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its written request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or any Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee
thereof, shall thereupon cease. 

  
 86 








 SECTION 8.07 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any
United States dollars or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, then the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 until such time
as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium or interest on any Note
following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent. 

ARTICLE IX 
 Amendment,
Supplement and Waiver 
 SECTION 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. Notwithstanding Section 9.02, the Issuer, any
Guarantor (with respect to a Guarantee or this Indenture) and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and any Guarantee or the Notes without the consent of any Holder: 

(1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency; 

(2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 

(3) to comply with Section 5.01; 

(4) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders; 

(5) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders or that in the good faith judgment of the Issuer
does not materially adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder; 
 (6) to add covenants for the benefit of
the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or any Guarantor; 
 (7) to comply with requirements of the SEC or
to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depository; 
 (8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment under
this Indenture of a successor Trustee thereunder pursuant to the requirements thereof; 
 (9) to add or release a Guarantor under this
Indenture or to secure the Obligations under this Indenture; 
 (10) to make such provisions as necessary for the issuance of Additional
Notes otherwise permitted to be issued under this Indenture; 
 (11) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes to
any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum, as set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee; or 

(12) to add to, change, eliminate or otherwise amend provisions of this Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes in accordance with the TIA or
to comply with the provisions of the DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream or the Trustee with respect to provisions relating to the transfer, exchange or legending of Notes or beneficial interests in the Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including to
facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes; provided, however, that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable
securities law and (ii) such amendment in the good faith judgment of the Issuer does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes. 

  
 87 








 SECTION 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. Except as provided in Section 9.01 or
below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, any Guarantee and the Notes with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including
consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a continuing Default in the payment of
interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of, any Note, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes issued under this Indenture may be waived
with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes). Sections 2.08 and 2.09 shall
determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02. 
 The consent of the
Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. 

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall deliver electronically or mail to
the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such
amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 Without the consent of each affected Holder of Notes, an amendment or waiver may not, with respect to
Notes held by a non-consenting Holder: 
 (1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must
consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the principal amount of or change the fixed final maturity of any Note or
reduce the premium payable upon redemption or change the time at which such Note may be redeemed (excluding any amendment or waiver of any minimum notice period for redemption which may be amended with the consent of the Holders of at least a
majority of the Notes then outstanding) as described under Section 3.07; 
 (3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of
interest on any Note; 
 (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, except a
rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration; 

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

(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture and the Notes relating to waivers of past Defaults or Events of Default or the rights
of Holders to receive payments of principal of or interest on the Notes; 
 (7) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions as
it relates to this Indenture and the Notes; 
 (8) impair the contractual right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or
interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; 

(9) make any change to or modify the ranking as to contractual right of payment of the Notes that would adversely affect the Holders; or 

(10) except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the terms of the Guarantees of any Significant Subsidiary in any manner adverse
to the Holders of the Notes. 

  
 88 








 SECTION 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment or supplement to this
Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect, if this Indenture is then qualified under the TIA. 

SECTION 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder
of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However,
any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the earlier of the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective and the date on
which the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate from the Issuer certifying that the requisite principal amount of Notes have consented. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds
every Holder. 
 The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to
consent to any amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be
entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. 

SECTION 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of the
Note to deliver it to the Trustee so an appropriate notation may be reflected therein. The Trustee may also place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. Alternatively, the Issuer in
exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

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

 SECTION 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. Upon the request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or
waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In executing any
amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and any Guarantors party thereto,
enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions. No Opinion of Counsel will be required by the immediately preceding sentence for the Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under
this Indenture. 
 SECTION 9.07 Payment for Consent. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such
consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 

ARTICLE X 
 Guarantees 

SECTION 10.01 Guarantee. Subject to this Article X, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally
guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer under
this Indenture or thereunder: (a) the performance and full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for payment of principal
of or interest on the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, on the terms set forth in this Indenture; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or 

  
 89 








 
any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration
or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a
guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 
 The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations under this Indenture shall be
unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or
thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence,
presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this
Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 
 If any
Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to
the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 Each
Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01. 

Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand,
(x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the
obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee. Any Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee shall be entitled, upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture, to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount
equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for
liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by
any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a voidable preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced,
restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 

In case any provision of any Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall
be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.

 SECTION 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of
Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of
each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections
from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article X, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not
constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. 
 SECTION 10.03 Notation Not Required. Each
Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes. 

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof under this Indenture, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee
set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 
 SECTION 10.04 Subrogation. Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all
rights of Holders of Notes against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01; provided that, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based
upon, such right of subrogation until all obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes shall have been paid in full. 

SECTION 10.05 Benefits Acknowledged. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing
arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 

SECTION 10.06 Release of Guarantees. A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and
no further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee upon (a) receipt by the Trustee of a notification from the Issuer that such Guarantee be released and
(b) the occurrence of any of the following: 
 (1) any direct or indirect sale, exchange, disposition or other transfer (including by
merger, consolidation or otherwise) of (A) the Capital Stock of such Guarantor, after which such Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or (B) all or substantially all the assets of such Guarantor, which sale, exchange, disposition
or other transfer is made in a manner not in violation of the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 
 (2) (A) the release or discharge
of the guarantee by such Guarantor of the Senior Credit Facilities or (B) the release or discharge of the guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, in each case except a release or discharge by or as a result of payment under
such guarantee; 
 (3) designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the
provisions set forth under Section 4.07 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” in this Indenture; 
 (4) the
Issuer’s exercise of its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option as described under Article VIII or the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture being discharged in a manner not in violation of Article XI; or 

(5) the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event as described in Section 4.15; provided that such Guarantee will be reinstated
upon the applicable Reversion Date in accordance with Section 4.15(c). 
 A Guarantee by a Guarantor shall also be automatically and
unconditionally released and discharged pursuant to Section 4.15(c). 
 If any Guarantor is released from its Guarantee, any of its
Subsidiaries that are Guarantors will also be released from their Guarantees, if any. 

  
 91 








 Upon request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall evidence such release by its execution of a
supplemental indenture or other instrument which may be executed by the Trustee and the Issuer without the consent of any Holder, upon receipt of an Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate as required by this Indenture. 

ARTICLE XI 
 Satisfaction and
Discharge 
 SECTION 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture and the Notes shall be discharged and shall cease to be of
further effect (except as provided in the last sentence of this Section), when either: 
 (1) all Notes theretofore authenticated and
delivered, except mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and the Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(2) (a) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of
redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption and redeemed within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name,
and at the expense, of the Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes cash in U.S. dollars, Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient (in the Trustee’s sole discretion) without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 
 (b)
the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture and the Notes; and 
 (c) the Issuer has
delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be. 

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions
precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money
shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (a) of clause (2) of this Section 11.01, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 shall survive. 

SECTION 11.02 Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money and Government Securities
(including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any
Paying Agent (including the Issuer or any Guarantor acting as the Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with
the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent
is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 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 Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 until such time as the Trustee
or any Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of
the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 [Back of Note] 

6.875% Senior Notes due 2026 

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

1. Interest. MEREDITH CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 6.875%
per annum from January 31, 20182 until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year to stated maturity, or if any such day
is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). The first Interest Payment Date shall be August 1, 20183. Interest on the Notes
will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue
principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest at the same
rate to the extent lawful. At maturity, the Issuer will pay accrued and unpaid interest from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for. Interest will be computed on the basis of
a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

2. Method of Payment. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of
business on the January 15 and July 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment
Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, provided that payment by wire
transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or the
Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change
the Paying Agent or the Registrar without prior notice to the Holders. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as a Paying Agent or Registrar. 

4. Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of January 31, 2018 (the “Indenture”),
among Meredith Corporation, the Guarantors named therein and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Issuer designated as its 6.875% Senior Notes due 2026. The Issuer shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes
pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 4.09 of the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§
77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the
Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 5. Optional Redemption.

Depositary) at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, except that
redemption notices may be mailed (or otherwise sent in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article VIII or
Article XI of the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date interest ceases
to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. 
 (b) Notice of any redemption of the Notes (including upon an Equity
Offering or in connection with a transaction (or series of related transactions) or an event that constitutes a Change of Control) may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof and any such
redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of the related transaction or event, as the case may be. In addition, if such
redemption or purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until
such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption was mailed or delivered, including by electronic 

  
 A-5 








 
transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall
not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed, or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Issuer’s discretion if in the good faith judgment of the Issuer any or all of such conditions will not
be satisfied. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person. 

8. Offers to Repurchase. 

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control after the Issue Date, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed (or otherwise
sent in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Section 3.07 of the Indenture, the Issuer shall make an offer (a “Change of Control
Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof
plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). The Change of Control Offer shall be made in accordance with Section 4.13 of the
Indenture. 
 (b) When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50,000,000, the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary shall make an
offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required by the terms of any Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes (“Pari Passu Indebtedness”), to the holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness (an “Asset Sale
Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof
plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any (or, in respect of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for or permitted by the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing
of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the
Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in the Indenture. If the aggregate amount of Notes and the Pari Passu Indebtedness surrendered in an Asset Sale Offer exceeds the
amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and the Issuer or the agent for such Pari Passu Indebtedness shall select such Pari Passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis (or as nearly pro rata as practicable) based on
the amount (determined as set forth above) of the Notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered, unless otherwise required by law or the rules of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes or such Pari Passu
Indebtedness are listed or by lot or such similar method in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary; provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be repurchased in part. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of
Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 
 9. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder to furnish appropriate
endorsements and transfer documents in connection with a transfer of the Notes. Holders shall pay all taxes due on transfer. The Issuer is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of
any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer is not required to issue, transfer or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed or within 15 days of an
Interest Payment Date. 
 10. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all
purposes. Only registered Holders shall have rights under the Indenture and this Note. 
 11. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The
Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture. 
 12. Defaults and Remedies. The
Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Issuer) occurs under the
Indenture and is continuing, the Trustee (acting at the 

  
 A-6 








 
direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes) or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then total outstanding Notes
may declare the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on, all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency with respect to the Issuer, the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on, all the then outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes or
the Guarantees except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may
withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture
except, a continuing Default or Event of Default in payment of the interest on or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting Holder. The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a
statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuer is required within 30 days after becoming aware of any Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default. 

13. Authentication. This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until
authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. 
 14. Governing Law. THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 15. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation
promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices to Holders as a convenience to Holders. No
representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

The Issuer will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to the Issuer at

W I T N E S S E T H 
 WHEREAS, the
Issuer and the Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to below) have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of January 31, 2018, providing for the issuance of an
unlimited aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”); 
 WHEREAS, the Indenture provides
that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuer’s Obligations under
the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and under the Indenture (the “Guarantee”); and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture. 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,
the parties mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 
 (1) Capitalized
Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever. 

(d) This Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, the
Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a Guarantor under the Indenture. 

(e) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors (including the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary), or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore
discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under Section 10.01 of the Indenture and
Section 2 hereof.

such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable)
shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary for the purpose of this Guarantee. 
 (h) To the extent
that the Guaranteeing Subsidiary makes a payment under its Guarantee, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under the Indenture to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an
amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

(i) Pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities that are
relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of
such other Guarantor under Article X of the Indenture, this new Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible such that the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under this Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent
transfer or conveyance. 
 (j) This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any
petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the
Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in
amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes and Guarantee, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In
the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Note shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned.
