Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 STERIS Corporation, an

 SECTION 1.

Each of the noteholders listed in the attached Schedule A hereto (each, individually, a “Noteholder”, and, collectively, the
“Noteholders”) and the Company now desire to amend and restate the Existing Note Purchase Agreement. In order to effectuate and reflect the foregoing in the most expeditious manner and to facilitate dealings with respect to the
Existing Note Purchase Agreement, the parties hereto have agreed to enter into that certain Second Amendment to the Existing Note Purchase Agreement, which shall amend and restate the Existing Note Purchase Agreement and replace such agreement with
this Agreement. 
 The Original Series A Notes are substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1-A-1, Exhibit 1-A-2, Exhibit
1-B-1, Exhibit 1-B-2, Exhibit 1-C-1 and Exhibit 1-C-2, respectively, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by the holder of the
Note and the Company. Certain capitalized terms used in this Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) are defined in Schedule B; references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are,
unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement. 
 Section 1.2. Amendment and Restatement of Existing Note
Purchase Agreement. Effective on the Closing Date, the Company, by its execution of the Second Amendment agrees and consents to the amendment and restatement in its entirety of the Existing Note Purchase Agreement and its replacement by this
Agreement. 
 Section 1.3. Amendment and Consent of Noteholders. The Noteholders are, collectively, the holders of one hundred percent
(100%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Original Series A Notes. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in the Second Amendment, the Noteholders, by their execution of the Second Amendment, hereby agree and
consent to the amendment and restatement in its entirety of the Existing Note Purchase Agreement and its replacement by this Agreement. 

Section 1.4. Subsequent Series. Subsequent Series of promissory notes (collectively, the “Supplemental Notes”) may be issued
pursuant to Supplemental Note Purchase Agreements as provided in Section 2.3 in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $200,000,000 and: (a) shall be sequentially identified as “Series B Notes”, “Series C
Notes”, “Series D Notes” et seq. and may consist of more than one different and separate tranches, but all such different and separate tranches of the same Series shall constitute one Series; (b) shall be in the aggregate
principal amount of not less than $25,000,000 per each such series, (c) shall be dated the date of such Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement, (d) shall bear interest from such date at the rate per annum to be determined as of such date,
(e) shall bear interest on overdue principal (including any overdue optional prepayment of principal) and premium, if any, and, to the extent permitted by law, on any overdue installment of interest at the stated rate plus 2%, (f) shall be
subject to required amortization, if any, and optional prepayments, and (g) shall be expressed to mature on the stated maturity date, all as set forth in the Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement relating thereto and shall otherwise be
substantially in the form attached 

  
 -2- 













 hereto as Exhibit 1.5; provided, no Supplemental Notes shall be issued if at the time of
issuance thereof and after giving effect to the application of proceeds therefor, any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Original Series A Notes, and the Supplemental Notes are herein sometimes collectively
referred to as the “Notes” and individually as a “Note.” As used herein, the term “Notes” shall include, without limitation, each Note delivered pursuant to the Existing Note Purchase Agreement and any Supplemental Note
Purchase Agreement at the Initial Closing and/or at any Supplemental Closing and each Note delivered in substitution or exchange for any such Note pursuant hereto. 

SECTION 2. SEVERAL AND NOT JOINT OBLIGATIONS;
GUARANTEES; SUBSEQUENT SALES. 
 Section 2.1. Several and Not Joint Obligations.
The obligations of the holders of the Notes hereunder are several and not joint obligations, and each holder of a Note shall have no obligation and no liability to any Person for the performance or nonperformance by any other holder of a Note
hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company understands and agrees that the Noteholders’ holding of the Original Series A Notes as herein contemplated does not constitute a commitment, obligation or indication of interest to purchase
any Supplemental Notes. References to “you” and “your” in this Agreement shall severally refer to each holder of a Note. 

Section 2.2. Guarantees. (a) The payment by the Company of all amounts due with respect to the Notes and the performance by
the Company of its obligations under this Agreement will be absolutely and unconditionally guaranteed by the Reporting Entity and the Affiliates of the Reporting Entity (other than the Company) that (i) are obligors under thea Bank Credit Agreement or a Material Credit Facility or (ii) guarantee the obligations of the obligors under
thea
 Bank Credit Agreement or such Material Credit Facility (together with any additional Affiliate who delivers a guaranty pursuant to Section 9.7, the “Guarantors”) pursuant to the
guaranty agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.2(a) attached hereto and made a part hereof (as the same may be amended, modified, extended or renewed, the “Affiliate Guaranty”).  

(b) Any instruments, documents and agreements pursuant to which the Reporting Entity or any Subsidiary agrees to grant Liens in favor of a
collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”) for the benefit of the holders of Notes are hereinafter referred to as the “Collateral Documents”. The Collateral Documents and the Affiliate Guaranties are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the “Security Documents.” 
 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) If at any time the Reporting Entity or any Affiliate shall grant to any one or more of the Creditors security of any kind or provide any
one or more of the Creditors with additional guaranties or other credit support of any kind pursuant to the requirements of a Material Credit Facility, then the Reporting Entity or such Affiliate shall grant to the holders of the Notes the same
security or guaranty so that the holders of the Notes shall at all times be secured on an equal and pro rata basis with such Creditors. All such additional guaranties or security shall be given to the holders of the Notes pursuant to
Section 9.7 or 9.8, as applicable, of this Agreement. 

  
 -3- 













 (e) The holders of the Notes agree that the obligations of any Affiliate (other than the Reporting Entity)
under the Affiliate Guaranty and the Liens of the Collateral Documents in respect of all or any part of the collateral therein described shall be automatically released and discharged without the necessity of further action on the part of the
holders of the Notes if, and to the extent, (i) the corresponding guaranty or Lien given pursuant to the terms of any Material Credit Facility is released, (ii) such Affiliate is no longer, if applicable, a borrower or issuer under any
Material Credit Facility and (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing or result therefrom (or should any Default or Event of Default then exist or result, at such later time as any such Default or Event of
Default shall cease to exist or result therefrom), provided that in the event the Reporting Entity or any Affiliate shall again become obligated under or with respect to the previously discharged Affiliate Guaranty or Material Credit
Facility, or again grant the discharged Lien, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms and provisions of the relevant Material Credit Facility, then the Lien granted by the Reporting Entity or its Subsidiaries under a Collateral Document or the
obligations of such Affiliate under the Affiliate Guaranty, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and any release thereof previously given shall be deemed null and void, and such Affiliate Guaranty shall again benefit the holders of the Notes on
an equal and pro rata basis. Any release by the holders of the Notes under this Section 2.2(e) shall be deemed to have occurred concurrently with the release and discharge under the Material Credit Facilities. Further, any
reinstatement of an Affiliate Guaranty or Lien pursuant to the terms hereof shall comply with the terms of Sections 9.7 and 9.8 hereof. The Reporting Entity shall promptly notify the holders of the Notes of any release of an Affiliate
Guaranty pursuant to this Section 2.2(e) and shall deliver evidence of any release or discharge of a guaranty or Lien in customary form. 

Section 2.3. Subsequent Sales. At any time, and from time to time, the Company and one or more Eligible Purchasers may enter into
an agreement substantially in the form of the Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 2.3 (a “Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement”) in which the Company shall agree to sell to each such Eligible
Purchaser named on the Supplemental Purchaser Schedule attached thereto (collectively, the “Supplemental Purchasers”) and, subject to the terms and conditions herein and therein set forth, each such Supplemental Purchaser shall
agree to purchase from the Company the aggregate principal amount of the Series of Supplemental Notes (which series shall be at least $25,000,000 and may consist of more than one different and separate tranches, but all such different and separate
tranches of the same Series shall constitute one Series) described in such Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement and set opposite such Supplemental Purchaser’s name in the Supplemental Purchaser Schedule attached thereto at the price and
otherwise under the terms set forth in such Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement. The sale of the Supplemental Notes of the Series described in such Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement will take place at the location, date and time set forth
therein at a closing (a “Supplemental Closing”). At such Supplemental Closing the Company will deliver to each such Supplemental Purchaser one or more Notes of the Series to be purchased by such Supplemental Purchaser registered in
such Supplemental Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), evidencing the aggregate principal amount of Notes of such Series to be purchased by such Supplemental Purchaser and 

  
 -4- 













 in the denomination or denominations specified with respect to such Supplemental Purchaser in such
Supplemental Purchaser Schedule against payment of the purchase price thereof by transfer of immediately available funds for credit to the Company’s account on the date of such Supplemental Closing (a “Supplemental Closing
Date”) (as specified in a notice to each such Supplemental Purchaser at least three Business Days prior to such Supplemental Closing Date). 

SECTION 3. RESTATEMENT CLOSING. 

The execution and delivery of the Second Amendment shall occur at the offices of Chapman and Cutler LLP, 111 West Monroe Street, Chicago,
Illinois 60603, at 10:00 a.m. Chicago time, at a closing on the Amendment Closing Date (as defined in the Second Amendment (the “Closing Date”)). 

Except as stated in the last paragraph of this Section 3, after the Closing Date, no Person shall have any obligation or liability
whatsoever to any Noteholder pursuant to or in connection with the Existing Note Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all amounts owing under, and evidenced by, the Original Series A Notes as of the Closing Date shall continue to be
outstanding under, and shall from and after the Closing Date be evidenced by, the Original Series A Notes, and shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement. 

If on the Closing Date any of the conditions specified in the Second Amendment shall not have been fulfilled to any Noteholder’s
satisfaction, such Noteholder shall, at such Noteholder’s election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such Noteholder may have under the Existing Note Purchase Agreement, the
Original Series A Notes or otherwise by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment. 
 Without limiting obligations under the Original
Series A Notes, all payment obligations of the Company under the Existing Note Purchase Agreement (other than reimbursement obligations in respect of costs, expenses and fees of or incurred by the holders of the Original Series A Notes arising prior
to the date hereof) shall be cancelled and such payment obligations of the Company shall be replaced by, and evidenced solely by, this Agreement.

SECTION 8. PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES. 

Section 8.1. Required Prepayments. No regularly scheduled prepayment of the principal of any tranche of the Original Series A
Notes is required prior to the final maturity thereof. 
 Section 8.2. Optional Prepayments with
Make-Whole Amount. (a) The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, any Series of the Notes, in an amount not less than 10%
of the aggregate principal amount of such Series of the Notes then outstanding (but if in the case of a partial prepayment, then against each tranche within such Series of Notes in proportion to the aggregate principal amount outstanding of each
tranche of such Series), at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with
respect to such principal amount. The Company will give each holder of the Series of Notes to be prepaid written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than 10 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date
fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Series of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance
with Section 8.3), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such
prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of the Series of Notes to be prepaid a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified
prepayment date. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 8.2 to the contrary, if and so long as any Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.2(a) shall be allocated among all of the Notes of all Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as
practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof. 

  
 -21- 













 Section 8.3. Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of any partial
prepayment of the Notes of any Series pursuant to Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes of such Series to be prepaid shall be allocated among each tranche of the Notes of such Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as
nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts of each tranche of the Notes of such Series not theretofore called for prepayment. 

Section 8.4. Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes of any Series pursuant to this Section 8, the
principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable
Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and
Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued,
and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note. 
 Section 8.5. Purchase of Notes. The Company
will not and will not permit any Controlled Affiliate (nor solicit, request or induce any other Affiliate) to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding tranches of the Notes of any Series except
(a) upon the payment or prepayment of each tranche of the Notes of such Series in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Notes of such Series were issued or
(b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Company or a Controlled Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes of such Series at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any such offer shall provide each holder with
sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 15 Business Days. If the holders of more than 51% of the principal amount of the Notes of such Series then outstanding
accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such Series of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such
remaining holder at least 10 Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Controlled Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant
to any provision of this Agreement or the applicable Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes. 

Section 8.6. Make-Whole Amount. The term
“Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of
such Note over the amount of such Called Principal; provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the
Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant
to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. 

  
 -22- 













 “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called
Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance
with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal. 

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity
implied by (a) the ask-side yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated
as “Page PX1” of the Bloomberg Financial Markets Services Screen (or, if not available, any other nationally recognized trading screen reporting on-line intraday trading in the U.S. Treasury
securities) for actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement
Date, or (b) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which
such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded
on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. Such implied
yield will be determined, if necessary, by (i) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (ii) interpolating linearly
between (1) the actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively
traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life. 

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the
nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (a) such Called Principal into (b) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (i) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment
with respect to such Called Principal by (ii) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the
scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment. 
 “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with
respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its
scheduled due date; provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the
amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or 12.1. 

  
 -23- 













 “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called
Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. 

Section 8.7. Change in Control. 

(a) Notice of Change in Control or Control Event. Subject to compliance with applicable law and other Company obligations, the Company
will, within five Business Days after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in Control or Control Event, give written notice of such Change in Control or Control Event to each holder of Notes unless notice in respect
of such Change in Control (or the Change in Control contemplated by such Control Event) shall have been given pursuant to subparagraph (b) of this Section 8.7. If a Change in Control has occurred, such notice shall contain and
constitute an offer to prepay Notes as described in subparagraph (c) of this Section 8.7 and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in subparagraph (g) of this Section 8.7. 

(b) Condition to Company Action. The Company will not take any action that consummates a Change in Control unless (i) at least 15
Business Days prior to such action it shall have given to each holder of Notes written notice containing and constituting an offer to prepay Notes as described in subparagraph (c) of this Section 8.7, accompanied by the certificate
described in subparagraph (g) of this Section 8.7, and (ii) subject to subparagraph (d), contemporaneously with the consummation of such Change in Control, it prepays all Notes required to be prepaid in accordance with this
Section 8.7. 
 (c) Offer to Prepay Notes. The offer to prepay Notes contemplated by subparagraphs (a) and
(b) of this Section 8.7 shall be an offer to prepay, in accordance with and subject to this Section 8.7, all, but not less than all, of the Notes held by each holder (in this case only, “holder” in respect of
any Note registered in the name of a nominee for a disclosed beneficial owner shall mean such beneficial owner) on a date specified in such offer (the “Proposed Prepayment Date”). If such Proposed Prepayment Date is in connection
with an offer contemplated by subparagraph (a) of this Section 8.7, such date shall be (subject to subparagraph (f)) not less than 30 days and not more than 120 days after the date of such offer (if the Proposed Prepayment Date
shall not be specified in such offer, the Proposed Prepayment Date shall be the first Business Day after the 45th day after the date of such offer). 

(d) Acceptance/Rejection. A holder of Notes may accept the offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.7 by causing a
notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company on or before the date specified in the certificate described in paragraph (g) of this Section 8.7. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made
pursuant to this Section 8.7, or to accept an offer as to all the Notes held by the holder, within such time period shall be deemed to constitute rejection of such offer by such holder. 

(e) Prepayment. Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be at 100% of the principal amount
of such Notes, together with interest on such Notes accrued to the date of prepayment, but without Make-Whole Amount or other premium. The prepayment shall be made on the Proposed Prepayment Date except as
provided in subparagraph (f) of this Section 8.7. 

  
 -24- 













 (f) Deferral Pending Change in Control. The obligation of the Company to prepay Notes
pursuant to the offers required by subparagraphs (a) and (b) and accepted in accordance with subparagraph (d) of this Section 8.7 is subject to the occurrence of the Change in Control in respect of which such offers and
acceptances shall have been made. In the event that such Change in Control has not occurred on the Proposed Prepayment Date in respect thereof, the prepayment shall be deferred until, and shall be made on, the date on which such Change in Control
occurs. Subject to compliance with applicable law and other Company obligations, the Company shall keep each holder of Notes reasonably and timely informed of (i) any such deferral of the date of prepayment, (ii) the date on which such
Change in Control and the prepayment are expected to occur, and (iii) any determination by the Company that efforts to effect such Change in Control have ceased or been abandoned (in which case the offers and acceptances made pursuant to this
Section 8.7 in respect of such Change in Control shall be deemed rescinded). 
 (g) Officer’s Certificate. Each offer
to prepay the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by a Senior Financial Officer of the Company and dated the date of such offer, specifying: (i) the Proposed Prepayment Date;

Prepayment Date; (v) that the conditions of this Section 8.7 have been fulfilled; (vi) in reasonable detail, the nature and date or proposed date of the Change in Control; and (vii) the last date by which any holder of a
Note that wishes to accept such offer must have delivered notice thereof to the Company, which date shall not be earlier than three Business Days prior to the Proposed Prepayment Date. 

(h) Securities Laws. The Company and Reporting Entity will comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the notes as a result of a Change in Control. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or
regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 8.7, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 8.7 by virtue of any
such conflict. 
 SECTION 9. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. 

The Reporting Entity covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding: 

Section 9.1. Compliance with Law. The Reporting Entity will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, comply with all

authorizations necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws,
ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 -25- 













 Section 9.2. Insurance. The Reporting Entity will, and will cause each of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts

Section 9.3. Maintenance of Properties. The Reporting Entity will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain
and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear or any casualty which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
Effect), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times; provided that this Section 9.3 shall not prevent the Reporting Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the
operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Reporting Entity has concluded that such discontinuance would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material
Adverse Effect.

to, file all income tax or similar tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies payable by any
of them, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent; provided that neither the Reporting Entity nor any Restricted Subsidiary need pay any such tax or assessment if (a) the
amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Reporting Entity or such Restricted Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Reporting Entity or a Restricted Subsidiary has established adequate
reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP (or Irish GAAP or English GAAP, as applicable) on the books of the Reporting Entity or such Subsidiary or (b) the nonpayment of all such taxes and assessments in the aggregate would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 9.5. Corporate Existence, Etc. Except as permitted by
Section 10.4, the Reporting Entity will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its legal existence. Except as permitted by Sections 10.4 and 10.5, the Reporting Entity will at all times preserve and keep in
full force and effect the legal existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Reporting Entity or a Restricted Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of the Reporting Entity and its Restricted Subsidiaries unless, in
the good faith judgment of the Reporting Entity, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence, right or franchise would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

duly authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Affiliate enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, assumptions and qualifications; provided that an opinion

 -27- 













 Subsidiary shall execute and concurrently deliver to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders of
the Notes a security agreement in substantially the same form as delivered to such Creditors, or any one or more of them, or the Lien granted for the benefit of such Creditors shall also be for the benefit of the holders of the Notes and the
Reporting Entity shall deliver, or shall cause to be delivered, to the holders of the Notes (a) all such certificates, resolutions, legal opinions and other related items in substantially the same forms as those delivered to and accepted by

similar pledge, grant, assignment, conveyance or Lien contemplated by any other Material Credit Facility. 
 Section 9.9. Restricted
Subsidiaries. (a) Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) below the Reporting Entity will at all times, (i) maintain the aggregate value of the assets of the Reporting Entity and the then existing Restricted Subsidiaries, at not
less than 92.5% of Consolidated Total Assets and (ii) ensure that not less than 92.5% of Consolidated EBITDA for each period is attributable to the Reporting Entity and the then existing Restricted Subsidiaries. 

(b) If at any time, (i) the aggregate consolidated value of the assets of the Reporting Entity and the then existing Restricted
Subsidiaries does not account for 92.5% or more of Consolidated Total Assets or (ii) less than 92.5% of Consolidated EBITDA for a period is attributable to the Reporting Entity and the then existing Restricted Subsidiaries, the Company shall
promptly designate, pursuant to Section 10.7, such other Subsidiaries of the Reporting Entity (which would not otherwise be Restricted Subsidiaries) to be Restricted Subsidiaries hereunder so that such 92.5% thresholds are satisfied.

 (c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall, and shall cause each Guarantor to, be and remain (until such time as such entity is
no longer a Guarantor) a Restricted Subsidiary. 
 Section 9.10. Transactions with Affiliates. The Reporting Entity will, and
will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, conduct all material transactions otherwise permitted under this Agreement with any of their Affiliates (excluding the members of the Consolidated Group) on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less
favorable to the Reporting Entity or such Restricted Subsidiary than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate; provided that the restrictions of this Section 9.10 shall not apply
to the following: 

  
 -28- 













 (a) the payment of dividends or other distributions (whether in cash,

 (g) any transaction in respect of which the Reporting Entity delivers to the
holder of the Notes a letter addressed to the board of directors of the Reporting Entity (or the board of directors of the relevant member of the Consolidated Group) from an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm that is in the good faith
determination of the Reporting Entity qualified to render such letter, which letter states that such transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Reporting Entity or the relevant member of the Consolidated Group, as applicable, than
would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate. 
 SECTION 10.
NEGATIVE COVENANTS. 
 The Reporting Entity covenants that so long as any of the Notes are outstanding:

clause encompasses clause (i) of paragraph (g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable. 

(b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of more than 51% in principal amount of a Series of the
Notes at the time outstanding may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all of the Notes of such Series then outstanding to be immediately due and payable. 

(c) If any Event of Default described in paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 11 has occurred and is continuing, any holder or

payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such
right under such circumstances. 
 Section 12.2. Other Remedies. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such

hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. 
 Section 12.3.
Rescission. At any time after any Series of Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of Section 12.1, the holders of not less than 51% in principal amount of each such Series of the Notes, by
written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if
any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by
applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such
declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (c) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this
Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 12.4. No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of
any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, by any Note or by any Security Document
upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Company under

 SECTION 13. REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE;
SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES. 
 Section 13.1. Registration of Notes. The Company shall
keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration of and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or
more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and
the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of
all registered holders of Notes. 
 Section 13.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes. Subject to compliance with applicable law,
upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly
executed by the registered holder of such Note or its attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s
expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) of the same Series (and of the same tranche if such Series has separate tranches) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit
1-A-1, Exhibit 1-A-2, Exhibit 1-B-1, Exhibit 1-B-2, Exhibit
1-C-1, Exhibit 1-C-2 or Exhibit 1.5, as the case may be. Each such new
Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $1,000,000; provided that if necessary to enable the registration of
transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes of a series or tranche, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $1,000,000; provided further that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer of an existing Note which prior to the
date of the Second Amendment was in a denomination of less than $1,000,000, a new Note in the same principal amount as such existing Note may be in such same amount. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of
its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2. 

Section 13.3. Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and 

  
 -42- 













 (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, a Noteholder or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be
deemed to be satisfactory), or 
 (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, 

the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same Series (and of the same tranche if such Series has separate
tranches), dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid
thereon. 
 SECTION 14. PAYMENTS ON NOTES. 

Section 14.1. Place of Payment. Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal,
Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in New York, New York at the principal office of Bank of New York in such jurisdiction. The Company may at any time,
by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such
jurisdiction. 
 Section 14.2. Home Office Payment. So long as you or your nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and
notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by
the method and at the address specified for such purpose below your name in Schedule A or in a Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement, as the case may be, or by such other method or at such other address as you shall have from time to time
specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after
payment or prepayment in full of any Note, you shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the
Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by you or your nominee you will, at your election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest
has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes of the same Series and tranche pursuant to Section 13.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any
Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by you under the Existing Note Purchase Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as you have made in this Section 14.2.

and delivery of any Collateral Document and the transactions contemplated thereby, including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees; to pay to the Collateral Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it

thereunder. 
 Section 15.2. Survival. The obligations of the Company under this Section 15 will survive the payment or
transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (and/or any Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement), the Notes or any Security Document and the termination of this Agreement (and/or any Supplemental Note
Purchase Agreement). 
 SECTION 16. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 
 All representations and warranties contained herein shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement (including any Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement) and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by you of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be
relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of you or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on 

  
 -44- 













 
behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and any
Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between you and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. 

SECTION 17. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. 

Section 17.1. Requirements. (a) This Agreement (and/or any Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement) and the Notes may be
amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of
any of the provisions of Section 1, 2.1, 2.3, 3, 4, 5 (subject to permitted amendments or supplements pursuant to Supplemental Note Purchase Agreements in respect to Notes issued thereunder), 6
or 21 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to you unless consented to by you in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time
outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount, time or allocation of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the
time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent
to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Section 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17 or 20. As used herein and in the Notes, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean
this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall include all Supplemental Note Purchase Agreements. 

(b) Any Collateral Document may be amended in the manner prescribed in such document, and the Affiliate Guaranties may be amended in the manner
prescribed in such documents, and all amendments to any Security Document obtained in conformity with such requirements shall bind all holders of the Notes. 

SECTION 17.2. SOLICITATION OF HOLDERS OF NOTES. 

(a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount, Series or tranche of Notes then owned
by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the
provisions hereof or of the Notes or of any of the Security Documents. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17 or of any of
the Security Documents to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes. 

  
 -45- 













 (b) Payment. Neither the Reporting Entity nor the Company will directly or indirectly
pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise or issue any Guaranty, or grant any security, to any holder of any Series or tranche of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement
to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of any Note or any Security Document unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or Guaranty or security is concurrently granted,
on the same terms, ratably to each of the holders of each Series and tranche of the Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. 

(c) Consent in Contemplation of Transfer. Any consent made pursuant to this Section 17 by the holder of any Note that has
transferred or has agreed to transfer such Note to the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Company and has provided or has agreed to provide such written consent as a condition to such transfer shall be void and of no force or effect
except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of Notes that
were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such transferring holder. 

Section 17.3. Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally
to all holders of each Series and tranche of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note of any Series and tranche and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or
waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the
holder of any Note of any Series or tranche of Notes nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of each Series and tranche of such Note. 

Section 17.4. Notes Held by Company, Etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of
the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, the Notes or any Security Document, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in
the Notes or any Security Document to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall
be deemed not to be outstanding. 
 SECTION 18. NOTICES.

sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or by e-mail) , or (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a
recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent: 

  
 -46- 













 (i) if to you or your nominee, to you or it at the address specified for
such communications in Schedule A or in a Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement, or at such other address as you or it shall have specified to the Company in writing, 

(ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the
Company in writing, or 
 (iii) if to the Company or the Reporting Entity, to the Company at its address set forth at the
beginning hereof to the attention of Corporate Treasurer, or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing.

deemed received on the day such notices or other communications are sent unless such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, in which case such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been
sent at the opening of business on the next business day. 
 SECTION 19. REPRODUCTION OF
DOCUMENTS. 
 This Agreement (including any Supplemental Note Purchase Agreement and any Security Document) and all documents
relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by you at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements,
certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to you, may be reproduced by you by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other similar process and you may destroy any original document
so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates for itself and on behalf of the Reporting Entity that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or
administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by you in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise
be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to
demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. 
 SECTION 20. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to you by or on
behalf of the Reporting Entity or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is confidential and/or proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise
adequately identified in writing (or verbally in the case of oral communication) when received by you as being confidential information of the Reporting Entity or such Subsidiary; provided that such term does not include information that
(a) was publicly known or otherwise known to you prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act 

  
 -47- 













 
or omission by you or any Person acting on your behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to you other than through disclosure by the Reporting Entity or any Subsidiary or any other holder of any
Note, (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to you under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available or (e) relates to the “tax treatment” or “tax structure” of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, as such terms are defined in Section 1.6011-4 of the Treasury Department regulations issued under the Code, and all materials of any kind that are provided to you relating to such tax
treatment or tax structure, except to the extent that disclosure of such information is not permitted under any applicable securities laws, and except with respect to any item that contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure
of a transaction as well as Confidential Information, this clause (e) shall only apply to that portion of the item relating to tax treatment or tax structure. You will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance
with reasonable procedures adopted by you in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to you; provided that you may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) your directors, trustees, officers,
employees, agents, attorneys and Affiliates (which Affiliates have agreed to hold confidential the confidential information) (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by your Notes),
(ii) your financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note,
(iv) any Institutional Investor to which you sell or offer to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 20, and such written agreement shall name the Company as a third party beneficiary thereof), (v) any Person from which you offer to purchase any security of the Reporting Entity (if such Person has agreed
in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you to the extent required or requested,
(vii) the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about your investment portfolio to the extent required or requested, or
(viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be required (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to you, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in
connection with any litigation to which you are a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent you may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or
for the protection of the rights and remedies under your Notes and this Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as
though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other
than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee or any other holder that has previously delivered such confirmation), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company confirming in writing that it is bound by the provisions
of this Section 20. 
 In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information that is required to be provided by
the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through IntraLinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which
is different from this Section 20, this Section 20 shall not be amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Company, this Section 20 shall supersede any such other confidentiality
undertaking. 

  
 -48- 













 SECTION 21. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER. 

You shall have the right to substitute any one of your Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that you have agreed to purchase hereunder, by
written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both you and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect
to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “you” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall be deemed to refer to such
Affiliate in lieu of you. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to you all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such
transfer, wherever the word “you” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to you, and you shall have all the rights of an
original holder of the Notes under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 22. MISCELLANEOUS. 

Section 22.1. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement (including any Supplemental
Note Purchase Agreement) by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not. 

Section 22.2. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes
to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day
without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. 

Section 22.3. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by
law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 22.4. Construction. Each
covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be
deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or
indirectly by such Person. 

  
 -49- 













 Where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of income or expense is
required to be determined or any consolidation or other accounting computation is required to be made by the Reporting Entity for the purposes of this Agreement, the same shall be done by the Reporting Entity in accordance with GAAP, to the extent
applicable, except where such principles are inconsistent with the requirements of this Agreement. 
 For purposes of determining compliance
with this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9, Section 10 and the definition of “Debt”), any election by the Reporting Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary to measure any financial liability using fair value
(as permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 825-10-25 – Fair Value Option, International
Accounting Standard 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made. 

If the Company or the Reporting Entity shall notify the holders of Notes that the Company or the Reporting Entity wishes to amend any covenant in
Section 10 to eliminate the effect of any change in GAAP on the operation of such covenant (or if the Required Holders notify the Company or the Reporting Entity that the Required Holders wish to amend Section 10 for such
purpose), then the Company and the holders of the Notes shall negotiate in good faith to make such adjustments as shall be necessary to eliminate the effect of such change in GAAP on such covenant; provided that, until either agreement is
reached on such adjustments and the covenant is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Company, the Reporting Entity and the Required Holders, or such notice is withdrawn, (i) the Reporting Entity’s compliance with such covenant shall be
determined on the basis of GAAP in effect immediately before the relevant change in GAAP became effective and (ii) the Company or the Reporting Entity shall provide to the holders of Notes a reconciliation showing calculations with respect to
such covenant before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. 
 Section 22.5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by
all, of the parties hereto. 
 Section 22.6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with,
and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York, excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would require the
application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. 
 Section 22.7. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury
Trial. (a) Each of the Reporting Entity and the Company hereby irrevocably submits and consents to the jurisdiction of the federal court located within the County of New York, State of New York (or if such court lacks jurisdiction, the
State courts located therein), and irrevocably agrees that all actions or proceedings relating to this Agreement and the Notes may be litigated in such courts, and each of the Reporting Entity and the Company waives any objection which it may have
based on 

  
 -50- 













 
improper venue or forum non conveniens to the conduct of any proceeding in any such court and waives personal service of any and all process upon it, and consents that all such service of process
be made by delivery to it at the address of such Person set forth in Section 18 above or to its agent referred to below at such agent’s address set forth below (with a courtesy copy to the Reporting Entity and the Company at the
address set forth in Section 18) and that service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon actual receipt. Nothing contained in this section shall affect the right of any holder of Notes to serve legal process in any other manner
permitted by law or to bring any action or proceeding in the courts of any jurisdiction against the Company or the Reporting Entity or to enforce a judgment obtained in the courts of any other jurisdiction. 

(b) The parties hereto waive any right to have a jury participate in resolving any dispute, whether sounding in contract, tort, or otherwise,
between them arising out of, connected with, related to or incidental to the relationship established between them in connection with this Agreement and the Notes, any financing agreement, any loan party document or any other instrument, document or
agreement executed or delivered in connection herewith or the transactions related hereto. The parties hereto hereby agree and consent that any such claim, demand, action or cause of action shall be decided by court trial without a jury and that any
of them may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the consent of the parties hereto to the waiver of their right to trial by jury. 

SECTION 23. TAX INDEMNIFICATION; PAYMENT IN U.S. DOLLARS. 

In the event, in accordance with Section 10.4, the entity which results from the consolidation or merger described therein or the
Person to whom the Company has sold or otherwise disposed of all or substantially all of its assets is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than any state of the United States or the District of Columbia the following shall apply: 

(a) Each payment by the Company (or applicable successor in accordance with Section 10.4) shall be made, under all
circumstances, without setoff, counterclaim or reduction for, and free from and clear of, and without deduction for or because of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, charges, deductions, withholding, restrictions or
conditions of any nature whatsoever (hereinafter called “Relevant Taxes”) imposed, levied, collected, assessed, deducted or withheld by the government of any country or jurisdiction (or any authority therein or thereof), other than
the United States of America or any political subdivision or authority therein or thereof, from or through which payments hereunder or on or in respect of the Notes are actually made (each a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such
imposition, levy, collection, assessment, deduction, withholding or other restriction or condition is required by law. If the Company is required by law to make any payment under this Agreement or the


  
 -51- 













 
Notes subject to such deduction, withholding or other restriction or condition, then the Company shall forthwith (i) pay over to the government or taxing authority imposing such tax the full
amount required to be deducted, withheld from or otherwise paid by the Company (including the full amount required to be deducted or withheld from or otherwise paid by the Company in respect of the Tax Indemnity Amounts (as defined below));
(ii) pay each Holder such additional amounts (“Tax Indemnity Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amount of every payment made to each Holder, after provision for payment of such Relevant Taxes (including any
required deduction, withholding or other payment of tax on or with respect to such Tax Indemnity Amounts), shall be equal to the amount which such holder would have received had there been no imposition, levy, collection, assessment, deduction,
withholding or other restriction or condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 23(a), no such Tax Indemnity Amounts shall be payable for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is
imposed or withheld by reason of the failure of the holder of a Note to complete, execute, update and deliver to the Company any form or document to the extent applicable to such holder that may be required by law or by reason of administration of
such law and which is reasonably requested in writing to be delivered by the Company in order to enable the Company to make payments pursuant to this Section 23(a) without deduction or withholding for taxes, assessments or governmental
charges, or with deduction or withholding of such lesser amount, which form or document shall be delivered within one hundred twenty days of a written request therefor by the Company. If in connection with the payment of any such Tax Indemnity
Amounts, any holder of a Note that is a United States person within the meaning of the Code or a foreign person engaged in a trade or business within the United States of America, incurs taxes imposed by the United States of America or any political
subdivision or taxing authority therein (“United States Taxes”) on such Tax Indemnity Amounts, the Company shall pay to such holder such further amount as will insure that the net expenditure of the holder for United States Taxes
due to receipt of such Tax Indemnity Amounts (after taking into account any withholding, deduction, tax credit or tax benefit in respect of such further amount or any Tax Indemnity Amount) is no greater than it would have been had no Tax Indemnity

 LITIGATION, OBSERVANCE OF
STATUTES AND ORDERS 
  

	 	1.	 In April 2010, after ongoing discussions with the FDA regarding a 2008 warning letter relating to STERIS’s
SYSTEM 1® sterile processor and related sterilant, STERIS reached agreement with the FDA on the terms of a consent decree (“Consent Decree”). The Consent Decree was approved the same
month by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. In general, among other matters, the Consent Decree restricts further sales of SYSTEM 1 processors in the U.S., prohibits the sale of liquid chemical sterilization or disinfection
products in the U.S. that do not have FDA clearance, describes various process and compliance matters, and defines penalties in the event of violation of the Consent Decree. 



 

	 	2.	 On May 31, 2012, STERIS’s Albert Browne Limited subsidiary received a warning letter from the FDA
regarding chemical indicators manufactured in the United Kingdom. These devices are intended for the monitoring of certain sterilization and other processes. The FDA warning letter states that the agency has concerns regarding operational business
processes. STERIS does not believe that the FDA’s concerns are related to product performance, or that they result from Customer complaints. STERIS reviewed its processes with the agency and finalized its remediation measures, and is awaiting
FDA reinspection. STERIS does not currently believe that the impact of this event will have a material adverse effect on our financial results. 


  

	 	3.	 On May 23, 2014, STERIS received a warning letter from the FDA regarding an inspection that the FDA
concluded on January 8, 2014 at its STERIS Isomedix Services facility located in Libertyville, Illinois. The facility primarily provides microbial reduction services for certain medical device Customers. Among other matters, the FDA warning
letter asserts that certain processes and procedures observed during the inspection did not conform to current Good Manufacturing Practices for medical devices as required by Title 21 CFR Part 820 and, as a result, that certain devices processed at
the subject facility are adulterated within the meaning of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Since the inspection, STERIS has provided detailed responses to the FDA regarding its corrective actions, and has continued to work diligently to
remediate the FDA’s concerns. STERIS does not believe that this inspection was a result of Customer complaints and there have been no reports of patient injury. STERIS does not expect this situation to have a material adverse effect on our
operations or financial condition. 


  

	 	4.	 On December 19, 2014, a stockholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the Court of Common Pleas, Cuyahoga
County, Ohio, against the members of STERIS’s board of directors and its named executive officers, challenging the “excise tax make-whole payments” approved by STERIS’s board in connection with the proposed Synergy transaction.
STERIS is named as a nominal defendant in the action. These payments are in respect of an excise tax that will be imposed, by virtue of the transaction, solely on the value of any outstanding stock compensation held by STERIS board members and
executive officers, and are intended to place these individuals in the same excise tax-neutral position with respect to their STERIS equity awards after the transaction as before. The case is captioned St. Lucie

County Fire District Firefighters’ Pension Trust Fund v. Rosebrough, Jr., et al., Case No. CV 14 837749. The complaint generally alleges that STERIS’s board breached their
fiduciary duties by approving the excise tax make-whole payments, that the payments constitute corporate waste and that the payments are voidable under Ohio law. The complaint seeks among other things a declaration that the excise tax make-whole
payments are invalid, damages, disgorgement of any excise tax make-whole payments and plaintiffs’ costs and disbursements in the action, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert fees, costs and expenses. 


 

	 	5.	 On January 9, 2015, STERIS and Synergy each received a request for additional information and documentary
material, often referred to as a “second request,” from the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) in connection with the proposed combination of STERIS with Synergy (the “Merger”). Issuance of the second request extends
the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, until 30 days after both parties have substantially complied with the second request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the FTC. Both
companies are cooperating with the FTC staff in the review of the Merger. Although there can be no assurance, the parties expect to comply with the second request in April, 2015 and expect to have more information about the status or completion of
the FTC’s review in May, 2015.
