demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, or to vote on or consent
to any action authorized or permitted to be taken by Holders; provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the

or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective
hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes
or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee,

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 a Depositary that is the Holder of a Global Note

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; provided that if such a record date is fixed, only the

beneficial
owners of interests in such Global Note on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies shall be entitled to make, give
or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such beneficial owners
remain beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration
Date.


 


(j)            With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.05, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any
day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided
that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing,
and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 14.02, on or prior to both the existing and the new Expiration Date. If an Expiration
Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.05, the party hereto which set such record date
shall be deemed to have initially designated the 90th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject
to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this clause (j).

(a)           Provisions relating to the Initial Notes, Additional Notes and any other Notes issued under this Indenture are set forth in Appendix A,
which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication
shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.
The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, rules or agreements with national securities exchanges to which
the Company or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form
acceptable to the Company). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $200,000
and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


(b)           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 Company, 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 Company pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 4.16 or a Change of Control Offer as provided
in Section 4.15, and otherwise as not prohibited by this Indenture. The Notes shall not be redeemable, other than as provided in Article
3.


 


Additional Notes ranking
pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the Company without notice to or consent of the
Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption
or otherwise (other than issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date and the first date from which interest
will accrue) as the Initial Notes; provided that the Company’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject to the
Company’s compliance with Section 4.09 and Section 4.10;


 






    -35- 


     


    

 


provided,
further, that unless such Additional Notes are issued under a separate CUSIP, such Additional Notes will be fungible with the
Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.


 


		Section	2.02          Execution
and Authentication.



 


(a)           At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Company by manual, electronic 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.


 


(b)           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 an authorized signatory of the Trustee. The signature
shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture.


 


(c)           On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an Officer (an “Authentication
Order”), authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes. At any time and from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of
an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication
Order for such Additional Notes issued hereunder.


 


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


 


(e)           The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon a written Authentication Order of the Company signed by one
Officer of the Company (a) Initial Notes for original issue on the Issue Date in an aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000, (b) subject
to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes and (c) any Unrestricted Global Notes issued in exchange for any of the foregoing in
accordance with this Indenture. Such Authentication Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated, the date on which
the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes, Additional Notes or Unrestricted Global
Notes.


 


		Section	2.03         Registrar
and Paying Agent.



 


(a)           The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”)
and at least one office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep
a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more
co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, and the term
“Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without
prior notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this
Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The
Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the Notes, the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.


 


(b)           The Company initially appoints DTC to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. The Company initially appoints the Trustee
to act as Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.


 






    -36- 


     


    

 


(c)           As long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market and the rules of the exchange
so require, the Company will also maintain a listing agent, a registrar, a transfer agent and a paying agent in Luxembourg. The Company
initially appoints Banque Internationale à Luxembourg S.A. to act as Luxembourg Listing Agent, Luxembourg Paying Agent and Luxembourg
Transfer Agent in Luxembourg for the Notes.


 


		Section	2.04          Paying
Agent to Hold Money in Trust.



 


The Company shall,
no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on any of
the Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held in trust for the Holders entitled to
the same, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to
act. The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust
for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest
on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues,
the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent
to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the
money. If the Company or a Subsidiary 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 Company, 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 the
Paying Agent shall have no further obligations with respect thereto. Each Holder of a Note or a beneficial interest therein by its acceptance
thereof agrees that if any amounts received by it are determined to be in contravention of the provisions of an Intercreditor Agreement
it shall hold such funds and pay them to the Security and Intercreditor Agent as described in the Intercreditor Agreements.


 


		Section	2.05          Holder
Lists.



 


The Trustee shall
preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders
in the Note Register. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company 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.


 


		Section	2.06          Transfer
and Exchange.



 


(a)           The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer
and in compliance with Appendix A.


 


(b)           To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company 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.


 


(c)           No service charge shall be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange (other than pursuant to Section
2.07), but the Holders shall be required to pay any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other
than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09,
4.15, 4.16 and 9.05 of this Indenture).


 






    -37- 


     


    

 


(d)           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 Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the
Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.


 


(e)           None of the Company, the Transfer Agent and the Registrar shall be required (1) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange
any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section
3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (2) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected
for redemption, or tendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in connection with a Change of Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer, in
whole or in part, except the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of any Note being redeemed or repurchased in part or (3) to register the
transfer of or to exchange any Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.


 


(f)            Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat
the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal,
premium, if any, and (subject to the Record Date provisions of the Notes) interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none
of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


(g)           Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section
4.02, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees,
one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.


 


(h)           At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like
aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the Registrar or such other office
specified by the Company. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 and Appendix A.


 


(i)            All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06
to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by mail or by facsimile or electronic transmission (provided that such
electronic transmission shall be in the form of a pdf file of a document executed by the required Person).


 


(j)            All transfers and exchanges of any Note shall be subject to the provisions set forth in Appendix A. The Trustee and the Registrar
shall be entitled to receive such evidence as may be reasonably requested by it to establish the identity and/or signatures of any transferee
or transferor.


 


(k)           The Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption.


 


		Section	2.07          Replacement
Notes.



 


If a mutilated Note
is surrendered to the Trustee or the Registrar or if a Holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken and the
Trustee and the Registrar receive evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and loss, destruction or theft of such Note, the Company
shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements
are otherwise met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond


 






    -38- 


     


    

 


must
be provided by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any
Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge the Holder
for the expenses of the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar in replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation
of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07, in case any mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken
Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.


 


		Section	2.08          Outstanding
Notes.



 


(a)           The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee or any authenticating agent except for those
canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in
accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09,
a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; provided that Notes
held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company will not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(b).


 


(b)           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.


 


(c)           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.


 


(d)           If the Trustee or a Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on the maturity
date, any redemption date or any date of purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, money sufficient to pay Notes payable or to be redeemed
or purchased on that date and such Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to Article
12, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.


 


		Section	2.09          Treasury
Notes.



 


In determining whether
the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes beneficially owned by
the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, 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. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded
if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent
with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of
such other obligor.


 


		Section	2.10          Temporary
Notes.



 


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


 






    -39- 


     


    

 


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 Company 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 destroy cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange
Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall, upon the written request of the Company, be delivered to the Company.
The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.


 


		Section	2.12          Defaulted
Interest.



 


(a)           If the Company 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 the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date,
in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. The Company 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 Company 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 Company 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 Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of such special
record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in
the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures
of the Depositary, or cause to be mailed or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the
Depositary to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be
paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest which is paid prior to the expiration of the 30-day period set forth in Section 6.01(a)(1)
shall be paid to Holders as of the record date for the Interest Payment Date for which interest has not been paid.


 


(b)           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
and ISIN Numbers



 


The Company in issuing
the Notes may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP or ISIN numbers in notices
of redemption or exchange or in Offers to Purchase as a convenience to Holders; provided that the Trustee shall have no liability
for any defect in any CUSIP numbers as they appear on the Notes, on any notice or elsewhere and 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 of redemption
or exchange or in Offers to Purchase and that


 






    -40- 


     


    

 


reliance
may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or exchange or Offer to Purchase
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in
writing of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.


 


ARTICLE
3



REDEMPTION


 


		Section	3.01          Notices
to Trustee.



 


If the Company elects
to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, it shall furnish to the Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent and Transfer Agent no later than 15
days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 (unless a shorter
notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) but not more than 60 days before a redemption date (unless in connection with a defeasance
under Article 8), an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note or Section of this Indenture
pursuant to which the redemption shall occur and such information as is required under Section 3.03(b).


 


		Section	3.02          Selection
of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.



 


(a)           If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.07 or purchased in an Offer to Purchase at any time, the
selection of the Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be made as follows: (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange
(and such listing is actually known to the Paying Agent), in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange
on which the Notes are listed or (2) if such national securities exchange has no requirement governing redemptions or if the Notes are
not so listed, the Depositary shall select the Notes by lot in the case of Global Notes and otherwise on a pro rata basis, by
lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion deems to be fair and appropriate, but in any case in accordance
with the Depositary’s applicable procedures. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be
redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 (or 15 days in the case of Section 3.07(g))
nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the then outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption
or purchase.


 


(b)           The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of
any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of
Notes selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1,000; provided that no Notes of $200,000 in principal
amount or less shall be redeemed in part. 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.


 


(c)           After the redemption date or purchase date, upon surrender of a Note to be redeemed or purchased in part only, a new Note or Notes
in principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the original Note, representing the same Debt to the extent not
redeemed or not purchased, shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note (or appropriate
book entries shall be made to reflect such partial redemption).


 


		Section	3.03          Notice
of Redemption.



 


(a)           Subject to Section 3.09, the Company shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures
of the Depositary, or cause to be mailed (or


 






    -41- 


     


    

 


delivered
by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) notices of redemption of Notes not less than
ten days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Article
at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, except that redemption
notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 13.
Except as set forth in Section 3.07(f), notices of redemption may not be conditional.


 


(b)           The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP and ISIN number, if applicable) and shall state:


 


(1)           the
redemption date;


 


(2)           the
redemption price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest; provided that in connection with
a redemption under Section 3.07(a), the notice need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof;


 


(3)           if
any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed;


 


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


 


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


 


(6)           that,
unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to
the terms of this Indenture, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;


 


(7)           the
paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;


 


(8)           that
no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on
the Notes; and


 


(9)           if
applicable, any condition to such redemption.


 


(c)           At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s
expense; provided that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days before notice of redemption is required
to be sent or caused to be sent 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 Section 3.03(b).


 


(d)           From and after the date the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market and so long as
it is required by the rules of such exchange, the Company shall publish notice of redemption as described in Section 14.02(d).


 


		Section	3.04          Effect
of Notice of Redemption.



 


Once notice of redemption
is given in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the
redemption price (except as provided for in Section 3.07(f)). The notice, if mailed or delivered by electronic transmission in a


 






    -42- 


     


    

 


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 or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect
the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. 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.



 


(a)           No later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or
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. 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 shall be paid to the Holder of record on such Record Date. The Paying Agent shall
promptly send to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed or repurchased the applicable redemption or purchase price thereof and accrued
and unpaid interest thereon via wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by such Holders thereof. The Trustee
or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess
of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or
purchased.


 


(b)           If the Company complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest shall cease
to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after 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 in
respect of such Note will be paid on such redemption or purchase date to the Person in whose name such Note is 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 Company to comply with Section 3.05(a), 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 Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall
promptly authenticate and mail to the Holder (or make appropriate adjustments to the amount and beneficial interests in any Global Note)

(b)           On or prior to November 1, 2023, the Company may on any one or more occasions, at its option, use an amount not to exceed the
net cash proceeds of one or more Eligible Equity Offerings to redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes
(including any Additional Notes) with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Eligible Equity Offerings, upon notice pursuant to Section 3.03,
at a redemption price as calculated by the Company equal to 107.750% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and

not more than 180 days after the consummation of such Eligible Equity Offering.


 


(c)           Except pursuant to clauses (a), (b), (g) or (h) of this Section 3.07, the Notes shall not be redeemable at the Company’s
option prior to November 1, 2023.

	Year
	Percentage

	2024	103.875%

(e)           Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06.


 


(f)            Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including, without limitation, an Eligible Equity
Offering, an Incurrence of Debt or a Change of Control Triggering Event) may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the
completion thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent,
including, but not limited to, completion of the related transaction. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of
one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s
discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time 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. The Company may designate at its option and provide in such notice that
payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by
another Person; provided that any call for redemption by such Person be treated as if such call was made by the Company.


 


(g)           In connection with any tender offer for the Notes, in the event that the Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company, or a third party
making such a tender offer in lieu of the Company, purchases all the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company
or any such third party will have the right, on not less than ten nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days
following such purchase date, to redeem all of the Notes that remain


 






    -44- 


     


    

 


outstanding
following such purchase at the purchase price equal to that offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not
included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes that remain outstanding,
to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date).


 


(h)           (1) At any time, if the Company or any successor is or, on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the
Notes, would be required to pay Additional Amounts on the Notes, or any Guarantor or any successor is required to pay Additional Amounts
on the Note Guarantees, the Company or any successor may elect to redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price as
calculated by the Company equal to 100% of the remaining principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and any Additional
Amounts accrued to, but excluding, the fixed date of redemption. The Company or any successor will not be entitled to redeem the Notes
pursuant to the previous sentence unless the Company, a Guarantor or any successor is required to pay such Additional Amounts due to
a change in or amendment to the laws (or any rules or regulations thereunder) of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, including a change in or amendment to an official interpretation, administration
or application of such laws, rules, or regulations (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment
becomes effective or is announced on or after the Issue Date or, in the event a successor which is not incorporated pursuant to the laws
of the United States has assumed the obligations under the Notes, on or after the date a successor assumes the obligations under the
Notes.


 


(2)            
In the event that the Company or any successor elects to redeem the Notes pursuant to clause (h)(1) above, it will deliver to
the Trustee and the Paying Agent: (1) an Officer’s Certificate, signed in the name of the Company or any successor, stating that
(a) the Company or such successor is entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the Notes and certifying
that the condition or conditions precedent to the right of the Company or any successor to so redeem have occurred or been satisfied
and (b) the payment of Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the relevant payor taking reasonable measures available to it; provided,
however, that reasonable measures shall not include changing the payor’s jurisdiction of incorporation or the location of its principal
executive office or registered office; and (2) an opinion of tax counsel of nationally recognized standing in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction,
to the effect that the Company, a Guarantor or any successor has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of the
change or amendment described in the preceding paragraph, and that all governmental requirements necessary for the Company or any successor
to effect the redemption have been complied with.


 


		Section	3.08         Mandatory
Redemption; Open Market Purchases.



 


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


 


The Company or its
Affiliates may at any time purchase Notes in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise at any price.
Any such purchased Notes will not be resold, except in compliance with applicable requirements or exemptions under the relevant securities
laws.


 


		Section	3.09          Offers
to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.



 


(a)           In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.16, the Company is required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, the Company must, within
30 days, make such Asset Sale Offer to purchase Notes having a principal amount equal to:


 






    -45- 


     


    

 


(A) accumulated
Excess Proceeds, multiplied by


 


(B) a fraction
(x) the numerator of which is equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and (y) the denominator of which is equal to the
outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes and all other Parity Debt that is similarly required to be repaid, redeemed or tendered
for in connection with the Asset Sale, rounded down to the nearest $1,000.


 


The purchase price
for the Notes will be 100% of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to the
date of purchase. If the Offer to Purchase is for less than all of the outstanding Notes and Notes in an aggregate principal amount in
excess of the purchase amount are tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the offer, the Company will purchase Notes having an aggregate
principal amount equal to the purchase amount on a pro rata basis, with adjustments so that only Notes in multiples of $1,000 principal
amount will be purchased; provided that after a purchase from a holder in part, such holder shall hold $200,000 in principal amount of
notes or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


(b)           The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent that a
longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Sale Offer Period”). No later than 30 Business Days after
the termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period (the “Asset Sale Purchase Date”), the Company will apply all Excess
Proceeds to the purchase of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, Parity Debt (on a pro rata basis, if applicable)
required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.16 (the “Asset Sale Offer Amount”), or, if less than the Asset Sale
Offer Amount of Notes (and, if applicable, Parity Debt) has been so validly tendered, all Notes and Parity Debt validly tendered in response
to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments on the Notes are made.


 


(c)           If the Asset Sale Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued,
unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, up to but excluding the Asset Sale Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose
name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date.


 


(d)           Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company shall mail a notice to each of the Holders or otherwise deliver such
notice in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, with a copy to the Trustee. 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, all holders of Parity Debt. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:


 


(1)           that
an Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.16 and the expiration time of the Asset Sale Offer Period;


 


(2)           the
Asset Sale Offer Amount, the purchase price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest, and the Asset
Sale Purchase Date;


 


(3)           that
Notes must be tendered in integral multiples of $1,000 (subject to clause (8) below), and any Note not properly tendered will remain
outstanding and will continue to accrue interest;


 


(4)           that,
unless the Company defaults in making the payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue
interest on and after the Asset Sale Purchase Date;


 






    -46- 


     


    

 


(5)           that
Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled
“Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to such Note completed, the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address
specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Asset Sale Purchase Date;


 


(6)           that
Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives
at the address specified in the notice, not later than the expiration of the Asset Sale Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile transmission
or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Notes the Holder tendered for purchase and a statement that
such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Note purchased;


 


(7)           that,
if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Parity Debt surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Asset Sale Offer Amount, then
the Notes and such Parity Debt will be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate accreted value or principal amount,
as applicable, of the Notes or such Parity Debt tendered and the selection of the Notes for purchase shall be made as follows: (1) if
the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange and the Paying Agent is notified of such listing, in compliance with the requirements
of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed or (2) if such national securities exchange has no requirement
governing redemptions or if the Notes are not so listed on a securities exchange, the Depositary shall select the Notes to be redeemed
by lot in the case of Global Notes and otherwise on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent may reasonably
determine is fair and appropriate, although no Note having a principal amount of $200,000 shall be purchased in part;


 


(8)           that
Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion
of the Notes surrendered (the unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof); and


 


(9)           the
other procedures, as determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 3.09 that a Holder must follow.


 


(e)           On or before the Asset Sale Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis
to the extent necessary or as otherwise provided in Section 4.16(a)(5), the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes and Parity Debt or portions
thereof validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or, if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount has
been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Parity Debt so tendered, in the case of the Notes, in whole number multiples
of $1,000; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding
immediately after such repurchase would be less than $200,000, then the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that
the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase is $200,000. The Company will deliver, or cause
to be delivered, to the Trustee the Notes so accepted and an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes
or portions thereof so accepted and that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the
terms of this Section 3.09.


 


(f)            The Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Company, as the case may be, will promptly, but in no event later than five Business Days
after termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period, distribute to each tendering Holder or holder or lender of Parity Debt, as the case
may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or the Parity Debt so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn


 






    -47- 


     


    

 


by
such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note,
and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will 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; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of at least
$200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company
to the Holder thereof. The Company will announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Asset Sale
Purchase Date.


 


(g)           The Company will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act (to the extent applicable) and all other applicable laws or
regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer, and the procedures related to an Asset Sale Offer
contained in this Indenture will be modified as necessary to permit such compliance. To the extent that the provisions of any securities
laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations
and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by virtue thereof.

I.A.3(b) of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, and successor provisions (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing, in which case

rules and regulations):


 


(1)        all quarterly and annual financial and hydrocarbon proved reserve information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries
that would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file


 






    -49- 


     


    

 


such
Forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with

if at any time the Company and the Guarantors are not required to file the reports required by the preceding paragraphs with the SEC,
they will furnish to the Holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors in the Notes, upon their request, the information
required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. The Company will be deemed to have provided such information
to the holders of the Notes, securities analysts and prospective holders of the Notes if it has filed reports containing such information

other than incidental to its ownership, directly or indirectly, of the Capital Stock of the Company, or


 


(2)        any direct or indirect parent of the Company becomes a Guarantor of the Notes,

this covenant; provided that, such financial information is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable
detail the differences between the information relating to such direct or indirect parent and any of its Subsidiaries other than the

group of Unrestricted Subsidiaries, if taken together as one Subsidiary, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Company, then

Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed Default, the Company will
promptly (which shall be within ten Business Days following the date on which the Company becomes aware of such Default, receives notice
of such Default or becomes aware of such action, as applicable) send to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying such event,
its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereof.

(c)              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Debt that the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Debt, solely
as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.


 


(d)              For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that any proposed Debt meets the criteria of more
than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (22) of Section 4.09(b), or is entitled to be Incurred
pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to classify such item of Debt at the time
of its Incurrence in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09 or to later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Debt. Any
Permitted Refinancing Debt and any Debt permitted to be Incurred under this Indenture to refinance Debt Incurred pursuant to clauses
(2), (3), (4), (6), (7), (15), (18), (19), (20) and (21) of Section 4.09(b) shall be deemed to include additional Debt Incurred to pay

(e)              The Company may not Incur any Debt that is subordinate in right of payment to other Debt of the Company unless such Debt is also
subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the relevant guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that
no Debt will be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment to any other Debt of the Company solely by virtue of being unsecured, by
virtue of being secured with different collateral or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis or by virtue of the applicability
of waterfall or other payment ordering provisions affecting different tranches of Debt.


 


(f)               The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of regularly scheduled interest
in the form of additional Debt of the same instrument or the payment of regularly scheduled dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form
of additional Disqualified Stock with the same terms will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Debt for purposes of this Section 4.09;
provided that any such outstanding additional Debt paid in respect of Debt Incurred pursuant to any provision of clause (b) above
will be counted as Debt outstanding for purposes of any future Incurrence of Debt pursuant to Section 4.09(a).


 


(g)              For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Debt, the U.S. dollar-equivalent
principal amount of Debt denominated in a non-U.S. currency will be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect
on the date such Debt was Incurred or, in the case of revolving credit Debt, first committed; provided that if such Debt is Incurred
to refinance other Debt denominated in a non-U.S. currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction
to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant


 






    -58- 


     


    

 


currency
exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded
so long as the principal amount of such Permitted Refinancing Debt does not exceed the principal amount of such Debt being refinanced.
The principal amount of any Debt Incurred to refinance other Debt, if Incurred in a different currency from the Debt being refinanced,
will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Permitted Refinancing Debt is denominated
that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.


 


(h)              Upon written request and the receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the amendment
or supplement is authorized or permitted under this Indenture and the Security Documents and that all conditions precedent thereto have
been satisfied, to the extent it is necessary to amend or supplement the Security Documents to provide for any Incurrence of Debt permitted
by this Indenture, the Trustee is hereby expressly authorized and directed to enter any such amendments or supplements on behalf of the
Holders.

if a Holder is tendering less than all of its Notes, such Holder will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
portion of the Notes surrendered (the unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof); and


 


(8)       the
other procedures, as determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 4.15 that a Holder must follow.

or otherwise delivered in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives
such notice. If (A) the notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (B) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives
such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect.

may be violated by a Change of Control Payment or the Company will offer to repay all such Debt, make payment to the lenders or holders
of such Debt that accept such offer and obtain waivers of any event of default arising under the relevant credit facility, indenture
or other agreement from the remaining lenders or holders of such Debt. The Company covenants to effect such repayment or obtain such
consent prior to making a Change of Control Payment, it being a default of the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of this
Indenture if the Company fails to comply with such covenant.


 


(f)               the Company will not be required to make an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes
the Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event in the manner, at the time and otherwise in compliance with the requirements
set forth in this Indenture applicable to an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event made by the Company and purchases
all the notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Offer to Purchase or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to
this Indenture as described under Article 3 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.


 


(g)              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) an Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering
Event and be conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control
at the time of making of the Offer to Purchase and (ii) an Offer to Purchase may be made at the same time as consents are solicited with
respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture, the Notes and/or Note Guarantees (but the Offer to Purchase may not
condition tenders on the delivery of such consents).


 


(h)              In the event that the Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept an Offer
to Purchase and the Company or a third party purchases all the Notes held by such Holders, the Company will have the right, on not less
than ten nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Offer to Purchase,
to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at the Change of Control Payment equal to that in the Offer
to Purchase plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if
any, on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Change
of Control Payment Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).


 


(i)               The Company will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act (to the extent applicable) and all other applicable laws and regulations
in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, and the above procedures will be deemed modified
as necessary to permit such compliance. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions
of this Indenture, the Company will 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.

(j)               Other
than as specifically provided in this Section 4.15, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.15 shall be made pursuant to the provisions
of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06.


 


		Section	4.16          Limitation
on Asset Sales.



 


(a)              The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Sale unless the following conditions are
met:


 


(1)            
The Asset Sale is for Fair Market Value.


 


(2)            
At least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale, together with all other Asset Sales since the Issue Date (on a cumulative
basis), consists of cash or Cash Equivalents received at closing.


 


For purposes
of this clause (2), (i) the assumption by the purchasers of Debt or other obligations (other than Subordinated Debt) of the Company or
a Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to a written agreement which releases or indemnifies the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from
such obligations, (ii) Debt (other than Subordinated Debt) of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as
a result of such Asset Sale, to the extent that the Company and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any guarantee of,
or are not liable with respect to, such Debt in connection with such Asset Sale, (iii) consideration consisting of Debt of the Company
or any Guarantor received from persons who are not the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (iv) instruments, securities or other obligations
received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from the purchasers that are converted into cash or Cash Equivalents within
180 days of the closing, (v) with respect to any Asset Sale of Oil and Gas Properties disposed of by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
in which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary retains an interest, the cost and expenses related to the exploration, development,
completion or production of such Oil and Gas Properties and activities related thereto agreed to be assumed by the transferee (or an
Affiliate thereof) and (vi) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset
Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this
clause (vi) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of (A) $225.0 million and (B) 5.0% of Adjusted Consolidated Net
Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated
Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value, shall be considered
to be cash received at closing.


 


(3)            
Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale (the “Asset Sale Proceeds Application Period”)
the Net Cash Proceeds may be used:


 


(A)           to repay Debt (other than Subordinated Debt) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (and in the case of a revolving credit,
permanently reduce the commitment thereunder by such amount), in each case owing to a Person other than the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary;


 


(B)            to acquire or invest in (or within such 365-day period in this clause (3), the Board of Directors shall have made a good faith
determination to acquire or invest, which acquisition or investment shall be consummated on or prior to 180 days of such determination)
(i) Additional Assets, (ii) assets of a Permitted Business (or make capital expenditures in respect of a Permitted Business), (iii) a
majority of the Voting Stock of


 






    -70- 


     


    

 


another
Person that thereupon becomes a Restricted Subsidiary engaged in a Permitted Business or (iv) a Permitted Business Investment; or


 


(C)            to make a Restricted Payment pursuant to Section 4.08(b)(16) to the extent of the limitation on the amount of such Restricted
Payment set forth therein.


 


(4)            
Notwithstanding clauses (2) and (3) above, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to consummate an Asset
Sale without complying with such clauses to the extent either (A) at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes Additional
Assets, cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Marketable Securities or (B) in the event of an Asset Sale involving Equity Interests of a Restricted
Subsidiary, (i) at least 30% of the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes Additional Assets, cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Marketable
Securities received at closing; provided that the remaining 45% of the consideration is paid on or prior to the third anniversary of
the closing and constitutes Additional Assets, cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Marketable Securities and (ii) in the event existing Equity
Interests are sold by the Company that such Equity Interests are pledged in favor of the Company or Restricted Subsidiary (or such Equity
Interests are mortgaged for the benefit of the Company or Restricted Subsidiary) until such consideration is paid; provided that
any consideration not constituting Additional Assets received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with any Asset
Sale permitted to be consummated under this clause shall be applied (in the case of cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
within 365 days after the receipt thereof subject to the proviso above) in accordance with the provisions of clause (3) above.


 


(5)            
The Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Sale not applied pursuant to Section 4.16(a)(3) or determined by the Board of Directors to not
be applied pursuant to Section 4.16(a)(3)(B) within the Asset Sale Proceeds Application Period constitute “Excess Proceeds.”
Excess Proceeds of less than $50.0 million will be carried forward and accumulated. When accumulated Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds
such amount, the Company must, within 30 days, make an offer (“Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase Notes pursuant to Section
3.09. Upon completion of an Asset Sale Offer, Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligation
with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an offer to purchase Notes with respect to the amount of all or part
of the available Net Cash Proceeds prior to the expiration of the Asset Sale Proceeds Application Period with respect to the amount of
all or part of the available Net Cash Proceed in advance of being required to do so by this Indenture.


 


(b)             Pending application in accordance with this Section 4.16, Net Cash Proceeds may be applied to temporarily reduce revolving credit
borrowings, if any, or invested in Cash Equivalents. The Fair Market Value for any Asset Sale will be determined by the Company in good
faith.


 


(c)             To the extent that any portion of Net Cash Proceeds payable in respect of the Notes is denominated in a currency other than U.S.
dollars, the amount thereof payable in respect of the Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in U.S. dollars that is actually
received by the Company upon converting such portion into U.S. dollars.


 


(d)             Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.16, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset
Sales is prohibited or delayed by applicable law, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied
in compliance with this Section 4.16, and such amounts may be retained by the Company or Subsidiary, as applicable, so long, but only
so long, as the applicable law will not permit repatriation to the United States or the Cayman Islands (the Company hereby agreeing to
use reasonable efforts (as determined in the Company’s good


 






    -71- 


     


    

 


faith
judgment) to, or otherwise cause the applicable Subsidiary to, promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable law to
permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted under the applicable law,
such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than
five Business Days after such repatriation could be made) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof)
(whether or not repatriation actually occurs) in compliance with this Section 4.16 and (ii) to the extent that the Company has determined
in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any such prohibited or delayed Asset Sale would have a material
adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds (which for the avoidance of doubt, may include, but is not limited
to, any prepayment whereby doing so the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective affiliates and/or equity partners
would incur a tax liability, including as a result of a dividend or a deemed dividend, or a withholding tax), the Net Cash Proceeds so
affected may be retained by the applicable Subsidiary. The non-application of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing
provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default or an Event of Default. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively
rely on an Officer’s Certificate from the Company to the effect that applicable law will not permit repatriation of such amounts
to the United States.


 


		Section	4.17          Covenant
Termination.



 


(a)              If on any date:


 


(1)            
the Notes have an Investment Grade rating from both of the Rating Agencies; and


 


(2)            
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture,


 


then, beginning on that day and
continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the rating of the Notes, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
will not be subject to Sections 4.08, 4.09, 4.11, 4.12, 4.14, 4.16 and 5.01(a)(4).


 


(b)             The Company will provide the Trustee and the Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate upon which the Trustee and Paying Agent
can conclusively rely that the Notes are given Investment Grade ratings. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any duty
or obligation to monitor the ratings of the Notes, neither shall be deemed to have any knowledge of the ratings of the Notes and neither
shall have a duty to notify the Holders if the Notes achieve Investment Grade ratings.


 


		Section	4.18          Payment
of Additional Amounts



 


(a)              All payments by the Company in respect of the Notes or the Guarantors in respect of the Note Guarantees will be made without withholding
or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments, or other governmental charges of whatever nature
imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Company’s, a Guarantor’s or any successor’s jurisdiction of incorporation
or tax residence or the jurisdiction in which central management or control of the Company, such Guarantor or such successor, as applicable,
is exercised, or in or through which payments are made in respect of the Notes or the Note Guarantees or, in each case, any political
subdivision or governmental authority therein (each a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the Company, such Guarantor
or such successor is compelled by law to deduct or withhold such taxes, duties, assessments, or governmental charges. In such event,
the relevant payor will make such deduction or withholding, make payment of the amount so withheld to the appropriate governmental authority
and pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary to ensure that the net amounts receivable
by holders of Notes after such withholding or deduction (including any


 






    -72- 


     


    

 


withholding
or deduction in respect of such payment of Additional Amounts) shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest (and premium,
if any) which would have been receivable in respect of the Notes in the absence of such withholding or deduction. No such Additional
Amounts shall be payable:


 


(1) to,
or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder or beneficial owner who is liable for such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges
in respect of such Note by reason of the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor,
beneficiary, member or shareholder of such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, a trust, a partnership, or a corporation) or beneficial
owner and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, including, without limitation, such Holder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member
or shareholder) or beneficial owner being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been engaged in a trade or
business or present therein or having, or having had, a permanent establishment therein, other than the mere holding of the Note or enforcement
of rights and the receipt of payments with respect to the Note;


 


(2) in
respect of Notes surrendered (if surrender is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that payments
under such Note would have been subject to withholding and the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note would have been entitled to such
Additional Amounts, on surrender of such Note for payment on the last day of such period of 30 days;


 


(3) to,
or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder or beneficial owner who is liable for such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental
charges by reason of such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s failure to comply with any certification, identification or other
reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner or its connection with a Relevant
Taxing Jurisdiction, if (a) compliance is required by such jurisdiction, or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein
having power to tax, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, the tax, duty, assessment or other governmental
charge and (b) the Company or any Guarantor has given the Holders at least 30 days’ notice that Holders will be required to provide
such certification or identification or comply with such other requirement;


 


(4) in
respect of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise or personal property or similar tax, assessment or governmental charge;


 


(5) in
respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Note or by direct payment by the Company or any Guarantor in respect of claims made
against the Company or any Guarantor;


 


(6) in
respect of United States federal withholding tax imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (i) being or having been
a bank, including any entity regulated as a bank or conducting a banking business, receiving payments on an extension of credit in the
ordinary course of its lending business, (ii) being or having been a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes
related, directly or indirectly, to the Company through stock ownership or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid U.S.
federal income tax; (iii) being or having been an actual or constructive owner of 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock entitled to vote of the Company or (iv) failing to provide an applicable IRS Form W-8 certifying as to such Person’s
non-U.S. status;


 






    -73- 


     


    

 


(7) in
respect of any tax, assessment, withholding or deduction required by Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (“FATCA”),
any current or future Treasury regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, any law, regulation or other official guidance enacted
in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA, any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and any other jurisdiction pursuant
to the implementation of FATCA, or any agreement with the United States Internal Revenue Service pursuant to the implementation of FATCA;
or


 


(8) in
respect of any combination of the above.


 


(b)              No Additional Amounts shall be paid with respect to any payment on a Note to a Holder who is a fiduciary, a partnership, a limited
liability company or other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment to the extent that payment would be required by the laws of
the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or any political subdivision thereof, to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary
or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a member of the partnership, an interest holder in the limited liability company or a beneficial
owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settlor, member, interest holder or beneficial
owner been the Holder.

The Company or applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, will provide the Trustee and Paying Agent with the official acknowledgement
of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (or, if such acknowledgement is not available, other reasonable documentation) evidencing the payment
of any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges in respect of which the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be,
has paid any Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation will be provided to the Holders of the Notes, upon request.


 


(c)              At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable (unless such obligation
to pay Additional Amounts arises shortly before or after the 30th day prior to such date, in which case it shall be promptly thereafter),
if the Company or applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment,
the Company will deliver to the Trustee and Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts
will be payable and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the Paying Agent to remit such
Additional Amounts to Holders of Notes on the payment date. Each such Officer’s Certificate shall be relied upon until receipt
of a new Officer’s Certificate addressing such matters.


 


(d)              The Company will pay any stamp, issue, excise, property, registration, documentary or other similar taxes and duties, including
interest and penalties, imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in respect of the creation, issue, delivery, registration and offering
of the Notes or the execution of the Notes, the Note Guarantees or this Indenture. The Company will also pay and indemnify each of the
Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Holders and beneficial owners of the Notes from and against all court taxes or other taxes and duties,
including interest and penalties, paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with any action permitted to be taken by the
Holders and beneficial owners to enforce the Company’s obligations under the Notes.


 


(e)              Any reference in this Indenture or the Notes to principal, interest or any other amount payable in respect of the Notes by the
Company or the Note Guarantees by any Guarantor will be deemed also to refer to any Additional Amount, unless the context requires otherwise,
that may be payable with respect to that amount under the obligations referred to in this Section 4.18.


 


(f)               The obligations of this Section 4.18 shall survive the termination or discharge of this Indenture.

		Section	4.19         Listing.



 


In the event that
the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market, the Company will use its best efforts to maintain
such listing; provided that if, as a result of the European Union regulated market amended Directive 2004/109/EC on the admission of
securities to official stock exchange listing and on information to be published on those securities (as amended, the “Transparency
Directive”) or any legislation implementing the Transparency Directive or other directives or legislation, the Company could
be required to publish financial information either more regularly than it otherwise would be required to or according to accounting
principles which are materially different from the accounting principles which the Company would otherwise use to prepare its published
financial information, the Company may delist the Notes from the Luxembourg Stock Exchange in accordance with the rules of the exchange
and will use its best efforts to obtain an alternative admission to listing, trading and/or quotation for the Notes on a different section
of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or by such other listing authority, stock exchange and/or quotation system inside or outside the European
Union as the Company’s Board of Directors may decide.

A Default under
clauses (5) of this Section 6.01(a) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee (acting at the direction of holders of
at least 25.0% in outstanding principal amount of the


 






    -79- 


     


    

 


Notes)
or the holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of the Notes outstanding notify the Company and the Trustee (if notice is given
by the Holders) of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (5) of this Section 6.01(a)
after receipt of such notice.


 


(b)               
The Trustee is not to be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or knowledge of any cure of any Default or
Event of Default unless either (i) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (ii)
written notice of any event which is in fact a Default or Event of Default has been given to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office
by the Company, any Guarantor or any Holder, such notice identifying this Indenture and the Company and such notice states that it is
a notice of Default or Event of Default.


 


		Section	6.02         Acceleration.



 


(a)       If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (8) or (9) of Section 6.01(a)) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee (acting at the direction of holders of at least 25.0% in outstanding principal amount of the Notes) by written
notice to the Company, specifying the Event of Default, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes,
by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
will be due and payable.


 


(b)       In case an Event of Default described in clauses (8) or (9) of Section 6.01(a) occurs and is continuing, the principal of,
premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.


 


(c)       In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in clause (6) of Section 6.01(a)
has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if:


 


(1)       the
default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (6) of Section 6.01(a) shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Debt within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto; and


 


(2)       (A)
the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and
(B) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes that became due solely
because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived.


 


(d)       The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive all past Events of Default (except with respect
to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (1) such
rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default,
other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration
of acceleration, have been cured or waived.


 


(e)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice of any Default or Event of Default may not be given with respect to any action taken,
and reported publicly or to Holders in reasonable detail and good faith, more than two years prior to such notice of any Default or Event
of Default, and any time period in this Indenture to cure any actual or alleged Default or Event of Default may be extended or stayed
by a court of competent jurisdiction.


 






    -80- 


     


    

 


Any notice of Default,
notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action
(a “Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (other than a Regulated Bank) (each a “Directing
Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder delivered to the Company and the Trustee that
such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is DTC or its nominee, that such Holder is being instructed solely by beneficial owners
that are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction
relating to the delivery of a notice of Default shall be deemed repeated at all times until the resulting Event of Default is cured or
otherwise ceases to exist or the Notes are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder is deemed, at the time of providing a Noteholder
Direction, to covenant to provide the Company with such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in
order to verify the accuracy of such Holder’s Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification
Covenant”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in any case in which the Holder is DTC or its nominee, any Position Representation
or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the beneficial owner of the Notes in lieu of DTC or its nominee, and
such beneficial owner shall provide proof of its holdings in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee.


 


If, following the
delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company determines in good faith that there is a reasonable
basis to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an
Officer’s Certificate stating that the Company has initiated litigation (“Litigation”) in a court of competent
jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking
to invalidate any Default or Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to
such Default or Event of Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to such Default or Event of Default shall
be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction
on such matter (a “Final Decision”). Once such Officer’s Certificate has been provided to the Trustee, the Trustee
shall take no further action pursuant to the related Noteholder Direction until it has actual knowledge of a Final Decision. If, following
the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company provides to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant (a “Verification Covenant Officer’s
Certificate”), the cure period with respect to such Default or Event of Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure
period with respect to any Default or Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically
reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant, and the Trustee shall take no further action pursuant
to the related Noteholder Direction until the Company provides a subsequent Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee that such Verification
Covenant has been satisfied (a “Covenant Satisfaction Officer’s Certificate”). The Company shall promptly deliver
a Covenant Satisfaction Officer’s Certificate following satisfaction by the applicable Directing Holder of its Verification Covenant.
Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such Holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded;
and, if, without the participation of such Holder, the percentage of Notes held by the remaining Holders that provided such Noteholder
Direction would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio,
with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred, acceleration voided and the Trustee shall be deemed
not to have received such Noteholder Direction or any notice of such Default or Event of Default.


 


Notwithstanding anything
in the preceding two paragraphs of this Section 6.02(e) to the contrary, any Noteholder Direction delivered to the Trustee during the
pendency of an Event of Default as the result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall not require compliance with the foregoing paragraphs.
In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 6.02(e) shall not apply to any Holder that is a Regulated
Bank.


 






    -81- 


     


    

 


For the avoidance
of doubt, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture,
shall have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with any Verification
Covenant, verify any statements in any Officer’s Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or
determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise
and shall have no liability for ceasing to take any action, staying any remedy or otherwise failing to act in accordance with a Noteholder
Direction during the pendency of Litigation or a Noteholder Direction after a Verification Covenant Officer’s Certificate has been
provided to it but prior to receipt of a Covenant Satisfaction Officer’s Certificate. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility
to the Company, any Holder or any other Person in connection with any Noteholder Direction or to determine whether or not any Holder
has delivered a Position Representation or that such Position Representation conforms with this Indenture or any other agreement.


 


		Section	6.03         Other
Remedies.



 


If an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest
on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.


 


The Trustee may maintain
a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the
Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.


 


		Section	6.04         Waiver
of Past Defaults.



 


The Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all Holders waive any existing Default
or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except:


 


(1)       a
continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note held by a non-consenting
Holder (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer); and


 


(2)       a
Default or Event of Default with respect to a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder
affected,


 


provided that, subject to Section
6.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including
any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default or Event of Default shall cease
to exist, and, if applicable, any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture,
but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


		Section	6.05          Control
by Majority.



 


The Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction
that conflicts with law, this Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents or any Note


 






    -82- 


     


    

 


Guarantee,
or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee
in personal liability; provided, however, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have an affirmative duty to determine whether any direction
is unduly prejudicial to any other Holder. Prior to taking any action hereunder or under the Security Documents, the Trustee shall be
entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.


 


		Section	6.06         Limitation
on Suits.



 


Subject to Section
6.07, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:


 


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


 


(2)       the
Holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;


 


(3)       such
Holders have offered, and if requested, provided the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability
or expense;


 


(4)       the
Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and


 


(5)       the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of
the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.


 


A Holder may not use this Indenture
to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.


 


		Section	6.07         Rights
of Holders to Receive Payment.



 


Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on its Note,
on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such 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 may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust against the Company and any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest
remaining unpaid on the Notes, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount
as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel.


 


		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


 






    -83- 


     


    

 


determined
adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the Company,
the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder 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, and every
right and remedy are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, 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 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 may file
proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including

its creditors or its property and is 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. Any custodian
in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee
shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and 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.

Intercreditor Agent no earlier than ten Business Days prior and no later than five Business Days prior to the date of such remittance);


 


(3)       to
Holders 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

of Trustee.



 


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


 


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


 


(1)       the
duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those

Indenture against the Trustee; and


 






    -85- 


     


    

 


(2)       in
the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture.
However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to
the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of
this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).


 


(c)        The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that:


 


(1)       this
paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;


 


(2)       the
Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved in a court of
competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and


 


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


 


(d)       Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject
to this Section 7.01 and Section 7.02.


 


(e)       If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers
under this Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents and the Note Guarantees at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless

		Section	7.02          Rights
of Trustee.

Certificate, Opinion of Counsel, statement, certificate, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, judgement, appraisal,
bond or any other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not
investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, 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 in good faith to make such further inquiry or investigation,
it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of
the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.


 


(b)       Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both
subject to the other provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith
in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the
advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from

liability
in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the
exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory
to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.


 


(g)        The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or 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 which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee
at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the existence of a Default or Event of Default, the Notes and
this Indenture.


 


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


 


(i)         The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to

performance of such act.


 


(o)        Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee and the Paying Agent is for informational purposes only and their
respective receipt of such reports shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable
from information contained therein, including the Company’s, any Guarantor’s or any other Person’s compliance with
any of its covenants under this Indenture or the Notes (as to which the Trustee and the Paying Agent are entitled to rely exclusively
on Officer’s Certificates). Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing
basis or otherwise, the Company’s, any Guarantor’s or any other Person’s compliance with the covenants described herein
or with respect to any reports or other documents filed under this Indenture.


 


		Section	7.03          Individual
Rights of Trustee.



 


The Trustee or any
Agent in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any

rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10.


 


		Section	7.04         Trustee’s
Disclaimer.



 


The Trustee shall
not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable
for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under

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 on the Notes.


 


		Section	7.05         Notice
of Defaults.



 


If a Default or Event
of Default occurs and is continuing and is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee will give to each Holder a notice
of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of an Event of Default specified in clauses (1) or (2) of Section 6.01(a),
the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default if the Trustee determines in


 






    -88- 


     


    

 


good
faith that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders. The Trustee shall not be deemed to know 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 which is a
Default or an Event of Default is received by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office.


 


		Section	7.06         [Reserved].



 


		Section	7.07         Compensation
and Indemnity.



 


(a)        The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its acceptance
of this Indenture and services hereunder and under the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents 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 Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred
or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements
and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. The Trustee shall provide the Company reasonable notice of any expenditure not
in the ordinary course of business.


 


(b)        The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for, and hold each
of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including attorneys’
fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties
hereunder (including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents against
the Company or any Guarantor (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any claim whether asserted by any Holder,
the Company, any Guarantor, any other person or liability, in each case solely in connection with the acceptance, exercise or performance
of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any third party claim for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall
defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company
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 as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision.


 


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


 


(d)        To secure the payment obligations of the Company 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)(8) or (9) occurs,
the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute
administrative expenses for purposes of priority under any Bankruptcy Law.


 


		Section	7.08         Replacement
of Trustee.



 


(a)        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


 






    -89- 


     


    

 


Section
7.08. The Trustee may resign in writing at any time by giving 30 days’ prior notice of such resignation to the Company and be discharged
from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing at least 30 days’ prior to the requested date
of removal. The Company may remove the Trustee if:


 


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


 


(2)       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;


 


(3)       a
receiver or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or


 


(4)       the
Trustee becomes incapable of acting.


 


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


 


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


 


(d)       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.


 


(e)       A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. 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 that all sums owing to the
Trustee hereunder have been paid and such transfer shall be subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07. Notwithstanding replacement
of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the
retiring Trustee.


 


(f)        As used in this Section 7.08, the term “Trustee” shall also include each Agent.


 


		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, subject
to Section 7.10.


 


		Section	7.10         Eligibility;
Disqualification.



 


There shall at all
times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation or national banking association organized and doing business under the laws of the
United States 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.

		Section	8.01         Option

The Company may, at
its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the
conditions set forth below in this Article 8.


 


		Section	8.02         Legal
Defeasance and Discharge.



 


(a)        Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company 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 Note Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal
Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire
Debt 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 clauses (1) through (4) below, and to have satisfied all of its
other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture, including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense
of the Company, shall execute such instruments as reasonably requested by the Company acknowledging the same), except for the following
provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:


 


(1)       the
rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are
due, solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04;


 


(2)       the
Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for Note payments held in trust;


 


(3)       the
rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith; and


 


(4)       this
Section 8.02.


 


(b)       Following the Company’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of
an Event of Default.


 


(c)       Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option under Section 8.03.


 


		Section	8.03         Covenant
Defeasance.



 


Upon the Company’s
exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in


 






    -91- 


     


    

 


Section
8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 3.09, 4.03, 4.06, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12,
4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.19, and clause (4) of Section 5.01(a) with respect to the outstanding Notes, and the Guarantors
shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Note Guarantees, on and after the date the conditions
set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the 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 hereunder
(it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance
means that, with respect to this Indenture and the outstanding Notes, the Company 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 such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. Upon the Company’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, an
Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(3) (only with respect to the covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant
Defeasance), Section 6.01(a)(4) that resulted solely from the failure of the Company to comply with clause (4) of Section 5.01(a),
6.01(a)(5) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance), 6.01(a)(6), 6.01(a)(7), 6.01(a)(8),
6.01(a)(9), 6.01(a)(11) (solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together
(as of the date of the latest audited financial statements of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant
Subsidiary) and 6.01(a)(12), in each case, shall not constitute an Event of Default.


 


		Section	8.04         Conditions
to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.



 


(a)        The following shall be the conditions to the exercise of either the Legal Defeasance option under Section 8.02 or the Covenant

Company must irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities,
or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, as confirmed, certified or attested by an internationally recognized firm
of independent public accountants in writing to the Trustee and Paying Agent, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest,
to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest due on the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption
date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption
date;


 


(2)       in
the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject
to customary assumptions and exclusions,


 


(A)       the
Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or


 


(B)       since
the Issue Date, 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 will confirm that, beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or
loss for U.S. federal income tax


 






    -92- 


     


    

 


purposes 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;


 


(3)       in
the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject
to customary assumptions and exclusions, beneficial owners 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 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 Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;


 


(4)       no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit (other
than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous
deposit relating to other Debt and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) and the deposit will not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or material instrument (other than this Indenture) to which
the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;


 


(5)       the
Company has delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company
with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company, any Guarantor or others;


 


(6)       the
Company has delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent 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 relating to the Legal Defeasance
or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with; and


 


(7)       the
Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee and Paying Agent to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the
Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be (which instructions may be contained in the Officer’s Certificate
referred to in clause (6) above).


 


		Section	8.05         Deposited
Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.



 


(a)        Subject to Section 8.06, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Paying Agent
pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Paying Agent, in accordance with
the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect
of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by law. Money and Government Securities so held in trust are not subject to Article 12.


 


(b)        The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee and Paying Agent against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against
the cash or 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.


 


(c)        Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Paying Agent will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time
upon the request of the Company any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of an
internationally


 






    -93- 


     


    

 


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(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited
to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.


 


		Section	8.06         Repayment
to the Company.



 


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


 


		Section	8.07         Reinstatement.



 


If the Trustee or
Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or Section 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 Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees shall
be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 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 Section 8.03, as the case may be; provided
that, if the Company makes any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee
or Paying Agent.

its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture.


 


(c)              It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, supplement or waiver. It shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance of such proposed amendment, supplement
or waiver.


 


(d)              After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will give to the Holders a notice
as described in Section 14.02(d) briefly describing such amendment, supplement or waiver. However, the failure of the Company to give
such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement
or waiver.


 


(e)              Without the consent of each affected Holder, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect
to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

is qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in an amended
or supplemental indenture that complies with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.


 


		Section	9.04         Revocation
and Effect of Consents.



 


(a)              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 date the waiver, supplement or amendment
becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.


 


(b)              The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date pursuant to Section 1.05 for the purpose of determining the
Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver.

on or Exchange of Notes.



 


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


 


(b)              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 Company, the Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment, supplement
or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amendment, supplement
or waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition
to the documents required by Section 14.03, 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 the Security Documents, as applicable, and, with respect
to such Opinion of Counsel, that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and any
Guarantor party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the
provisions hereof (including Section 9.03).

the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be.


 


(b)              The Company shall deliver to the Trustee and Paying Agent 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 to satisfaction and discharge
have been satisfied.


 


		Section	13.02       
                                            Application of Trust Money.



 


(a)              Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.01 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 Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of
the principal, 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.


 


(b)              If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 13.01 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 Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note
Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 13.01; provided that if the Company
has made any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company
shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by
the Trustee or Paying Agent, as the case may be.

		Section	14.01       
                                            Limited Condition Transaction; Measuring Compliance.



 


(a)              With respect to any (i) Investment or acquisition, in each case, the consummation by the Company or any Subsidiary of which is
not conditioned on the availability of, or on obtaining, third-party financing for such Investment or acquisition (whether by merger,
amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination or the acquisition of Capital Stock or otherwise) as applicable and (ii) redemption,
repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Debt, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock requiring irrevocable
notice in advance of such redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment (any transaction described in clauses
(i) or (ii), a “Limited Condition Transaction”), in each case for purposes of determining:


 


(1)            
whether any Debt (including Acquired Debt), Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is being incurred or issued in connection
with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted to be incurred in compliance with Section 4.09;


 






    -104- 


     


    

 


(2)            
whether any Lien being incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction or to secure any such Debt, Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock is permitted to be incurred in accordance with Section 4.10 and the definition of “Permitted Liens”;


 


(3)            
whether any other transaction undertaken or proposed to be undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction complies
with the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or the Notes; and


 


(4)            
any calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, and/or EBITDAX and/or
Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and, whether a Default or Event of Default exists in connection with the foregoing,


 


at the option of the
Company, the date that the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction is
entered into (the “Transaction Agreement 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 “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” or “Consolidated Total Debt Ratio,” or “EBITDAX”
and if the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries could have taken such action on the relevant Transaction Agreement Date in compliance
with the applicable ratios or other provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt,
if the Company elects to use the Transaction Agreement Date as the applicable date of determination in accordance with the foregoing,
(i) such election may not be revoked, (ii) any fluctuation or change in the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Debt Ratio,
Consolidated Net Income, EBITDAX or Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company, the target business, or assets to be acquired
subsequent to the Transaction Agreement Date and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, will not be taken into
account for purposes of determining whether any Debt, Disqualified Stock, Preferred Stock or Lien that is being incurred or issued in
connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted to be incurred or issued or in connection with compliance by the Company
or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries with any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes or any other action or transaction undertaken
in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction and (iii) until such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive
agreements related thereto are terminated, such Limited Condition Transaction and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection
therewith (including the incurrence of Debt and Liens) will be given pro forma effect when determining compliance of other transactions
(including the incurrence or issuance of Debt, Disqualified Stock, Preferred Stock and Liens unrelated to such Investment, acquisition
or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Debt) that are consummated after the Transaction Agreement Date and on or prior to the consummation
of such Limited Condition Transaction and any such transactions (including any incurrence or issuance of Debt, Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof) will be deemed to have occurred on the Transaction Agreement Date 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 Limited Condition Transaction; provided that for purposes of any such calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated
Interest Expense will be calculated using an assumed interest rate for the Debt to be incurred in connection with such Limited Condition
Transaction based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Debt or,
if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith.


 


(b)              Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (i) incurs Debt, issues
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, creates Liens, makes Asset Sales, makes Investments, makes Restricted Payments, designates any
Subsidiary as a Restricted



 






    -105- 


     


    

 


Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or repays any Debt, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in connection with any Limited Condition
Transaction under a ratio-based basket and (ii) incurs Debt, issues Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, creates Liens, makes Asset
Sales, Investments or Restricted Payments, designates any as a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or repays any Debt,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction under a non-ratio-based basket (which shall
occur within five Business Days of the events in clause (i) above), then the applicable ratio will be calculated with respect to any
such action under the applicable ratio-based basket without regard to any such action under such non-ratio-based basket made in connection
with such Limited Condition Transaction.


 


(c)              Compliance with any requirement relating to absence of Default or Event of Default may be determined as of the Transaction Agreement
Date and not as of any later date as would otherwise be required under this Indenture.


 


(d)              In the event an item of Debt, 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 Debt, 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 Fixed Charge Coverage
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 Debt, 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
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test.

(d)             From and after the date the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market and so long as
it is required by the rules of such exchange, all notices to holders of the Notes will be published by the Luxembourg listing agent in

    -107- 


     


    

 


(1)            
in a leading newspaper having a general circulation in Luxembourg (which currently is expected to be Luxembourg Wort) or
on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu);

(e)              Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive
such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall
be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such
waiver.


 


(f)               Notwithstanding any other provision herein, where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to any Holder of an interest
in a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Note (or
its designee), according to the applicable procedures of such Depositary, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice.


 


(g)              The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon notice, instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured facsimile

of the party providing such notice, instructions or directions. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising

(h)              If a notice or communication is sent in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not

		Section	14.03                                                  Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent.



 


Upon any request or
application by the Company or any Guarantor to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Company or such Guarantor, as
the case may be, shall furnish to the Trustee:


 


(1)            
an Officer’s Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which shall include the statements
set forth in Section 14.04) stating that, in the opinion of the signer, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for
in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and


 






    -108- 


     


    

 


(2)            
an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which shall include the statements set forth
in Section 14.04) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been complied with;
provided that (A) subject to Section 5.01(c), no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the addition of
a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture,
the form of which is attached as Exhibit C and (B) no Opinion of Counsel pursuant to this Section shall be required in connection
with the issuance of Notes on the Issue Date.


 


		Section	14.04       
                                            Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion.



 


Each certificate or
opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than a certificate provided pursuant
to Section 4.07) shall include:


 


(1)            
a statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;


 


(2)            
a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained
in such certificate or opinion are based;


 


(3)            
a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable
him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with (and, in the case of
an Opinion of Counsel, may be limited to reliance on an Officer’s Certificate as to matters of fact); and


 


(4)            
a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.


 


		Section	14.05       
                                            Currency Indemnity



 


(a)              U.S. dollars are the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Company or the Guarantors under or in connection
with the Notes, this Indenture and the Note Guarantees, including damages. Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than
U.S. dollars (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up
or dissolution of the Company or any of the Guarantors or otherwise) by any holder of a Note in respect of any sum expressed to be due
to it from the Company or the Guarantors will only constitute a discharge to the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, to the
extent of the U.S. dollar amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency
on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which
it is practicable to do so). If that U.S. dollar amount is less than the U.S. dollar amount expressed to be due to the recipient under
any Note, the Company will indemnify such holder against any loss sustained by it as a result; and if the amount of U.S. dollars so purchased
is greater than the sum originally due to such holder, such holder will promptly remit such excess to the Paying Agent who will in turn
remit such amount to the Company. In any event, the Company will indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase.


 


(b)             For the purposes of the preceding subsection, it will be sufficient for the holder of a Note to certify in a satisfactory manner
(indicating the sources of information used) that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of U.S. dollars been made with
the amount so received in that other currency on the date of receipt or recovery (or, if a purchase of U.S. dollars on such date had
not


 






    -109- 


     


    

 


been
practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable, it being required that the need for a change of date be certified
in the manner mentioned above). These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations of the
Company and the Guarantors, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted
by any holder of a Note and will continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated
amount in respect of any sum due under any Note.


 


		Section	14.06       
                                            Consent to Jurisdiction and Service; Waiver of Immunities. 



 


In relation to any
legal action or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees, the Company and each
Guarantor hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan
in the City of New York, County and State of New York, United States of America. Each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably designates
and appoints Kosmos Energy, LLC as its agent for service of process in any such action.


 


To the extent that
the Company or any Guarantor has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with
respect to itself or its property, it hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under each of this Indenture,
the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents. In addition, the Company and each Guarantor irrevocably waives and agrees
not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of the above-mentioned courts for any reason whatsoever, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought
in an inconvenient forum or that the venue for such suit is improper, or that this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees or the Security
Documents or the subject matter hereof or thereof may not be enforced in such courts.


 


The Company and
the Guarantors agree that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions
by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Section 14.06 shall affect the right of the Trustee to
serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Trustee to bring any action or proceeding against
the Company or any Guarantor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdictions.


 


		Section	14.07      
                                            Rules by Trustee and Agents.



 


The Trustee may make
reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders. The Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent may make reasonable rules and
set reasonable requirements for its functions.


 


		Section	14.08      
                                            No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees, Members, Partners and
                                            Stockholders.



 


No past, present or
future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner or stockholder of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, shall have
any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor (other than the Company in respect of the Notes and each Guarantor
in respect of its Note Guarantee) under the Notes, the Note Guarantees or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or
by reason of, such obligations or their creation.


 


Each Holder by accepting
a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software or hardware) services or the unavailability
of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable
efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes need not be made

and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Definitive Notes. When Definitive Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request:


 


(i) 
to register the transfer of such Definitive Notes; or


 


(ii)  to
exchange such Definitive Notes for an equal principal amount of Definitive Notes of other authorized denominations,


 


the Registrar shall register the transfer
or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that
the Definitive Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange:


 


(1)  shall
be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar,
duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing; and

A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information
as may be requested pursuant thereto.

such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such instructions
to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase,


 


the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive
Note and cause, or direct the Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary
and the Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal
amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such
instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Note so canceled. If the applicable
Global Note is not then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon an Authentication Order, a new
applicable Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.


 


(c)  Transfer
and Exchange of Global Notes.


 


(i)  The
transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this
Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.2(d) of this Appendix A, if any) and the procedures of
the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written order given
in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be
credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or another Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with
such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited
by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.


 


(ii)  If
the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the
Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest
is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect
on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is
being transferred.


 


(iii)  Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Appendix A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.3 of this Appendix A), a Global Note may
not be transferred except as a whole and not in part if the transfer is by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee
of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary
or a nominee of such successor Depositary.


 


(d) Restrictions
on Transfer of Global Notes; Voluntary Exchange of Interests in Transfer Restricted Global Notes for Interests in Unrestricted Global
Notes.


 


(i) Transfers by an
owner of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through
another Transfer Restricted Global Note shall be made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the Restricted Notes Legend and
only upon receipt by the Trustee of a certification from the transferor in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note
in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers and, as applicable, delivery of such legal opinions, certifications
and other information as may be requested pursuant thereto. In the case of a transfer of a beneficial interest in either a Regulation S
Global Note or a Rule 144A Global Note for an interest in an IAI Global Note, the transferee must furnish a signed letter substantially
in the form of Exhibit B to the Trustee.

(ii) During the Distribution
Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Note may only be sold, pledged or transferred through Euroclear
or Clearstream in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, the Restricted Notes Legend on such Regulation S Global Note and any applicable
securities laws of any state of the U.S. Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, transfers by an owner of a beneficial
interest in the Regulation S Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through a Rule 144A Global Note or
an IAI Global Note shall be made only in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the Restricted Notes Legend and upon receipt by
the Trustee of a written certification from the transferor of the beneficial interest in the form provided on the reverse side of the
Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration of transfers. Such written certification shall no longer be required
after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period. Upon the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership
interests in the Regulation S Global Note shall be transferable in accordance with applicable law and the other terms of this Indenture.


 


(iii) Upon the expiration
of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests
in an Unrestricted Global Note upon certification in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A
for an exchange from a Regulation S Global Note to an Unrestricted Global Note.


 


(iv) Beneficial interests
in a Transfer Restricted Note that is a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted
Global Note if the Holder certifies in writing to the Registrar that its request for such exchange is in respect of a transfer made in
reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A) and/or
upon delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as the Company or the Trustee may reasonably request.


 


(v) If no Unrestricted
Global Note is outstanding at the time of a transfer contemplated by the preceding clauses (iii) and (iv), the Company shall issue and
the Trustee shall authenticate, upon an Authentication Order, a new Unrestricted Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.

the person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, premium,
if any, and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company,
the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


(iv)  All
Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled

or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under

Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules
and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary
with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

None of the Company,
the Trustee or Paying Agent or any agent of them shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the
Depositary.


 


(ii)  The
Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed
under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between

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.

(a)  A Global
Note deposited with the Depositary or with the Trustee as Custodian pursuant to Section 2.1 may be transferred to the beneficial
owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in
exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.2 of this Appendix A and (i) the Depositary notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Note or if at any time the Depositary ceases to
be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case, a successor depositary is not appointed by the
Company within 90 days of such notice or after the Company becomes aware of such cessation, or (ii) an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from the Depositary or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion
and subject to the procedures of the Depository, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes
under this Indenture. Any Affiliate of the Company or any Guarantor that is a beneficial owner of all or part of a Global Note may have
such Affiliate’s beneficial interest transferred to such Affiliate in the form of a Definitive Note by providing a written request
to the Company and the Trustee and such Opinions of Counsel, certificates or other information as may be required by this Indenture or
the Company or Trustee.


 


(b)  Any
Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be surrendered by the Depositary
to the Trustee, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations.
Any portion of a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations
of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct. Any Definitive
Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note that is a Transfer Restricted Note shall, except as otherwise provided by
Section 2.2(e) of this Appendix A, bear the Restricted Notes Legend.


 


(c)  The
registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may
hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.


 


(d)  In
the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 2.3(a) of this Appendix A, the Company shall promptly make
available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes in fully registered form without interest coupons.

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


 


1.       INTEREST.
Kosmos Energy Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Note at 7.750% per annum until but excluding maturity. The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November
1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”).
Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and
including [●]; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be May 1, 2022. The Company shall pay interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand
at the 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 (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand
at the interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve
30-day months. Whenever in this Note there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount of the
Notes or of principal, interest or of any other amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes, such mention shall be deemed
to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be
payable in respect thereof.


 


2.       METHOD
OF PAYMENT. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered holders of Notes at the close of business on
the April 15 and October 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the related 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. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office
or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and premium, if any, may be
made by check mailed to the Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register; provided that payment by wire
transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal, premium, if any, and interest on all Global Notes
and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent at least five
Business Days prior to the applicable payment date. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time
of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.


 


3.       PAYING
AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wilmington Trust, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders. The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
may act in any such capacity.


 


4.       INDENTURE.
The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of October 26, 2021 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”),
among Kosmos Energy Ltd., the Guarantors named therein and the Trustee, Paying Agent, Transfer Agent, Registrar, Luxembourg Listing Agent,
Luxembourg Paying Agent and Luxembourg Transfer Agent. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company designated
as its 7.750% Senior Notes due 2027. The Company shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.01 and Section
4.09 of the Indenture. The Notes and any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture shall be treated as a single


 






    A-5 


     


    

 


class
of securities under the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms,
and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of such terms. Any term used in this Note that is defined in the Indenture
shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Indenture. 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.       REDEMPTION
AND REPURCHASE. The Notes are subject to optional redemption, and may be the subject of an Offer to Purchase, as further described in
the Indenture. The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.


 


6.       DENOMINATIONS,
TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $200,000 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
Transfer Agent may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Company
may require a Holder to pay any taxes, governmental charges and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need
not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption or tendered for repurchase in connection
with a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed or repurchased in part.


 


7.       SUBORDINATION.
The Obligations of each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee are subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided
in the Security Documents. The Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, to the subordination provisions contained
in the Indenture and the Security Documents and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact
for such purpose.


 


8.       PERSONS
DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.


 


9.       AMENDMENT,
SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.


 


10.       DEFAULTS
AND REMEDIES. The Events of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default, the rights and obligations of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be as set forth in the applicable
provisions of the Indenture.


 


11.       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.


 


12.       GOVERNING
LAW. THIS NOTE WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.


 


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

Attention: [_____________]


 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


This certificate
is delivered to request a transfer of $[_______] principal amount of the 7.750% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”)
of Kosmos Energy Ltd. (the “Company”).


 


Upon transfer, the
Notes would be registered in the name of the new beneficial owner as follows:


 


Name:________________________


 


Address:______________________


 


Taxpayer ID Number:____________


 


The undersigned
represents and warrants to you that:


 


1. We are an institutional
“accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least
$250,000 principal amount of the Notes, and we are acquiring the Notes, for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer
or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We have such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we invest in or purchase securities
similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business. We, and any accounts for which we are acting, are each able to bear the economic
risk of our or its investment.


 


2. We understand
that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold except as permitted in the
following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell
or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the date that is one year after the later of the date of original issue and the last date on
which the Company or any affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction
Termination Date”) only in accordance with the Restricted Notes Legend (as such term is defined in the indenture under which
the Notes were issued) on the Notes and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. The foregoing restrictions
on resale will not apply subsequent to the Resale Restriction Termination Date. If any resale or other transfer of the Notes is proposed
to be made pursuant to clause (e) above prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the transferor shall deliver a letter
from the transferee substantially in the form of this letter to the Company and the Trustee, which shall provide, among other things,
that the transferee is an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7)
under the Securities Act and that it is acquiring such Notes for investment purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities
Act. Each purchaser acknowledges that the Company and the Trustee reserve the right prior to the offer, sale or other transfer prior
to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Notes with respect to applicable transfers described in the Restricted Notes Legend
to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee.
