pursuant to a sinking fund obligation or otherwise, or redeemable at the option of the holder of the Capital Stock, in whole or in part,

Disqualified Stock. For purposes hereof, the amount of Disqualified Stock which does not have a fixed repurchase price shall be calculated

shall be required to be determined pursuant to this Indenture, and if such price is based upon, or measured by, the Fair Market Value

Article Two

THE NOTES


 


Section 2.01.            The
Notes.


 


(a)              Form and
Dating. The Notes and the Trustee’s (or the authenticating agent’s) certificate of authentication shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are
required or permitted by this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, the rules of any
securities exchange agreements to which the Issuer is subject, if any, or usage; provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement
is in form reasonably acceptable to the Issuer. The Issuer shall approve the form of the Notes. Each Note shall be dated the date of
its authentication. The terms and provisions contained in the form of the Notes shall constitute and are hereby expressly made a part
of this Indenture. The Notes shall be issued only in registered form without coupons and only in minimum denominations of $2,000 in principal
amount and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


(b)             Global
Notes. Notes offered and sold to QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Notes
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided in Exhibit A attached
hereto, except as otherwise permitted herein (the “Restricted Global Note”), which shall be deposited on behalf of
the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with a custodian for DTC, and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, duly executed
by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee (or its authenticating agent in accordance with Section 2.02) as hereinafter provided.
The aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made by the
Registrar on Schedule A to the Restricted Global Note and recorded in the Security Register, as hereinafter provided.


 


Notes offered and sold in
reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more Global Notes substantially in the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided in Exhibit A, except as otherwise permitted herein (the “Regulation
S Global Note”), which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with a custodian for
DTC, and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee (or its authenticating
agent in accordance with Section 2.02) as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note may
from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made by the Registrar on Schedule A to the Regulation S Global Note and recorded
in the Security Register, as hereinafter provided.


 






    26 


     


    

 


(c)              Book-Entry
Provisions. This Section 2.01(c) shall apply to the Regulation S Global Notes and the Restricted Global Notes (together,
the “Global Notes”) deposited with or on behalf of DTC.


 


Members
of, or participants and account holders in, DTC (including Euroclear and Clearstream) (“Participants”) shall have
no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by DTC or by the Trustee or any custodian of DTC
or under such Global Note, and DTC or its nominees may be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer,
the Guarantor or the Trustee as the sole owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee from giving effect
to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or impair, as between DTC, on the one hand, and the Participants,
on the other, the operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of a beneficial interest
in any Global Note.


 


Subject to the provisions
of Section 2.10(b), the registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Participants
and Persons that may hold interests through Participants, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or
the Notes.


 


Except as provided in Section 2.10,
owners of a beneficial interest in Global Notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Definitive Registered Notes.


 


Section 2.02.            Execution
and Authentication. An authorized member of the Issuer’s Board of Directors or an executive officer of the Issuer shall sign
the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual, electronic or facsimile signature.


 


If an authorized member of
the Issuer’s Board of Directors or an executive officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the
Trustee (or its authenticating agent) authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless.


 


A Note shall not be valid
or obligatory for any purpose until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or its authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate
of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.


 


The Issuer shall execute
and, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate (whether itself or via the authenticating agent), which such authentication
may be by manual, electronic (including DocuSign or other electronic platform) or facsimile signature (a) Original Notes, on the
date hereof, for original issue up to an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000,000 and (b) Additional Notes, from time to time,
subject to compliance at the time of issuance of such Additional Notes with the provisions of Section 4.07. The Issuer is permitted
to issue Additional Notes as part of a further issue under this Indenture, from time to time; provided that, any Additional Notes
may not have the same CUSIP number and/or ISIN (or be represented by the same Global Note or Global Notes) as the Original Notes unless
the Additional Notes are fungible with the Original Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Issuer will issue Notes in denominations
of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 






    27 


     


    

 


The Trustee may appoint an
authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Notes. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment,
any such authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication
by the Trustee includes authentication by any such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, co-Registrar,
Transfer Agent or Paying Agent to deal with the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer.


 


The Trustee shall have the
right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Notes under this Section 2.02 if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines
that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee
to personal liability to existing Holders.


 


Section 2.03.            Registrar,
Transfer Agent and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency for the registration of the Notes and of their transfer
or exchange (the “Registrar”), an office or agency where Notes may be transferred or exchanged (the “Transfer
Agent”), an office or agency where the Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent” and references
to the Paying Agent shall include the Principal Paying Agent) and an office or agency where notices or demands to or upon the Issuer
in respect of the Notes may be served. The Issuer may appoint one or more Transfer Agents, one or more co-Registrars and one or more
additional Paying Agents.


 


The Issuer or any of its
Affiliates may act as Transfer Agent, Registrar, co-Registrar, Paying Agent and agent for service of notices and demands in connection
with the Notes; provided that neither the Issuer nor any of its Affiliates shall act as Paying Agent for the purposes of Article Three
and Eight and Sections 4.06 and 4.09.


 


The Issuer hereby appoints
(i) the Trustee, located at its Corporate Trust Office (the “Principal Paying Agent”) and (ii) the Trustee,
located at its Corporate Trust Office, as Registrar. Each hereby accepts such appointments. The Transfer Agent, Principal Paying Agent
and Registrar and any authenticating agent are collectively referred to in this Indenture as the “Agents.” The roles,
duties and functions of the Agents are of a mechanical nature and each Agent shall only perform those acts and duties as specifically
set out in this Indenture and no other acts, covenants, obligations or duties shall be implied or read into this Indenture against any
of the Agents. For the avoidance of doubt, a Paying Agent’s obligation to disburse any funds shall be subject to prior receipt
by it of those funds to be disbursed.


 


Subject to any Applicable
Laws and regulations, the Issuer shall cause the Registrar to keep a register (the “Security Register”) at its Corporate
Trust Office in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of ownership,
exchange, and transfer of the Notes. Such registration in the Security Register shall be conclusive evidence of the ownership of Notes.
Included in the books and records for the Notes shall be notations as to whether such Notes have been paid, exchanged or transferred,
canceled, lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and whether such Notes have been replaced. In the case of the replacement of any of the
Notes, the Registrar shall keep a record of the Note so replaced and the Note issued in replacement thereof. In the case of the cancellation
of any of the Notes, the Registrar shall keep a record of the Note so canceled and the date on which such Note was canceled.


 






    28 


     


    

 


The Issuer shall enter into
an appropriate agency agreement with any Paying Agent or co- Registrar not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the
provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent.
If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee may appoint a suitably qualified and reputable party to act
as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.05.


 


Section 2.04.            Paying
Agent to Hold Money. Not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York, New York time), one Business Day prior to each due date of the principal,
premium, if any, and interest on any Notes, the Issuer shall deposit with the Principal Paying Agent money in immediately available funds
in U.S. dollars, sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest so becoming due on the due date for payment under the
Notes. The Issuer shall procure payment confirmation on or prior to the third Business Day preceding payment. The Principal Paying Agent
(and, if applicable, each other Paying Agent) shall remit such payment in a timely manner to the Holders on the relevant due date for
payment, it being acknowledged by each Holder that if the Issuer deposits such money with the Principal Paying Agent after the time specified
in the immediately preceding sentence, the Principal Paying Agent shall remit such money to the Holders on the relevant due date for
payment, unless such remittance is impracticable having regard to applicable banking procedures and timing constraints, in which case
the Principal Paying Agent shall remit such money to the Holders on the next Business Day, but without liability for any interest resulting
from such late payment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Principal Paying Agent shall only be obliged to remit money to Holders if it
has actually received such money from the Issuer in clear funds. The Principal Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Trustee of any
default by the Issuer (or any other obligor on the Notes) in making any payment. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to
pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of
any payment default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and
to account for any funds disbursed. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money so paid over to the
Trustee. If the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer acts as Paying Agent, it shall, on or before each due date of any principal, premium,
if any, or interest on the Notes, segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders a sum of money sufficient
to pay such principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due until such sum of money shall be paid to such Holders or otherwise
disposed of as provided in this Indenture, and shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure to act.


 


The Trustee may, if the Issuer
has notified it in writing that the Issuer intends to effect a defeasance or to satisfy and discharge this Indenture in accordance with
the provisions of Article Eight, notify the Paying Agent in writing of this fact and require the Paying Agent (until notified by
the Trustee to the contrary) to act thereafter as Paying Agent of the Trustee and not the Issuer in relation to any amounts deposited
with it in accordance with the provisions of Article Eight.


 






    29 


     


    

 


Section 2.05.            Holder
Lists. The Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the
names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing no later than
the Record Date for 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 Record Date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of Holders, including the aggregate principal
amount of Notes held by each Holder.


 


Section 2.06.            Transfer
and Exchange.


 


(a)              Where
Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal
amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange in accordance with the requirements
of this Section 2.06. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee (or the authenticating
agent) shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one
or more new Notes, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, at the Registrar’s request; provided
that no Note of less than $2,000 may be transferred or exchanged. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer
or exchange of Notes (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any agency fee or similar charge payable in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange of Notes (other than any agency
fee or similar charge payable in connection with any redemption of the Notes or upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.08 or 9.04)
or in accordance with a Priority Asset Sale Offer pursuant to Section 4.06 or a Change of Control Offer pursuant to Section 4.09,
not involving a transfer.


 


Upon presentation for exchange
or transfer of any Note as permitted by the terms of this Indenture and by any legend appearing on such Note, such Note shall be exchanged
or transferred upon the Security Register and one or more new Notes shall be authenticated and issued in the name of the Holder (in the
case of exchanges only) or the transferee, as the case may be. No exchange or transfer of a Note shall be effective under this Indenture
unless and until such Note has been registered in the name of such Person in the Security Register. Furthermore, the exchange or transfer
of any Note shall not be effective under this Indenture unless the request for such exchange or transfer is made by the Holder or by
a duly authorized attorney-in-fact at the Corporate Trust Office of the Registrar.


 


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


 


All Notes issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer evidencing the same indebtedness, and entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.


 






    30 


     


    

 


Neither the Issuer nor the
Trustee, Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Note during a period
beginning at the opening of 15 days before the day of the delivery of a notice of redemption of Notes selected for redemption under Section 3.03
and ending at the close of business on the day of such delivery, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected
for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.


 


(b)            Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Global Note remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of DTC, transfers of a
Global Note, in whole or in part, or of any beneficial interest therein, shall only be made in accordance with Section 2.01(c),
Section 2.06(a) and this Section 2.06(b); provided that a beneficial interest in a Global Note may be transferred
to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions
set forth in the restricted Note legend on the Note, if any.


 


(i)            Except
for transfers or exchanges made in accordance with either of clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.06(b), transfers
of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but not in part, to nominees of DTC or to a successor of
DTC or such successor’s nominee.


 


(ii)           Restricted
Global Note to Regulation S Global Note. If the holder of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note at any time wishes
to exchange its interest in such Restricted Global Note for an interest in the Regulation S Global Note, or to transfer its interest
in such Restricted Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation
S Global Note, such transfer or exchange may be effected, only in accordance with this clause (ii) and the rules and procedures
of DTC, in each case to the extent applicable (the “Applicable Procedures”). Upon receipt by the Registrar from the
Transfer Agent of (A) written instructions directing the Registrar to credit or cause to be credited an interest in the Regulation
S Global Note in a specified principal amount and to cause to be debited an interest in the Restricted Global Note in such specified
principal amount, and (B) a certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest
stating that the transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Global Notes
and (x) pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S or (y) that the interest in the Restricted Global Note being transferred
is being transferred in a transaction permitted by Rule 144, then the Registrar shall reduce or cause to be reduced the principal
amount of the Restricted Global Note and shall cause DTC to increase or cause to be increased the principal amount of the Regulation
S Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the interest in the Restricted Global Note to be exchanged or transferred.


 


(iii)          Regulation
S Global Note to Restricted Global Note. If the holder of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note at any time wishes
to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global
Note, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with this clause (iii) and the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the
Registrar from the Transfer Agent of (A) written instructions directing the Registrar to credit or cause to be credited an interest
in the Restricted Global Note in a specified principal amount and to cause to be debited an interest in the Regulation S Global Note
in such specified principal amount, and (B) a certificate in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto given by the holder of such
beneficial interest stating that the transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable
to the Global Notes and stating that (x) the Person transferring such interest reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such
interest is a QIB and is obtaining such interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A and any applicable securities
laws of any state of the United States or (y) that the Person transferring such interest is relying on an exemption other than Rule 144A
from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and, in such circumstances, such Opinion of Counsel as the Issuer or the
Trustee may reasonably request to ensure that the requested transfer or exchange is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a
transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, then the Registrar shall reduce or cause to be
reduced the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note and to increase or cause to be increased the principal amount of the Restricted
Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the interest in such Regulation S Global Note to be exchanged or transferred.


 






    31 


     


    

 


(c)            If
Notes are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the restricted Notes legends set forth in Exhibit A
attached hereto, the Notes so issued shall bear the restricted Notes legends, and a request to remove such restricted Notes legends from
Notes shall not be honored unless there is delivered to the Issuer such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel
licensed to practice law in the State of New York, as may be reasonably required by the Issuer, that neither the legend nor the restrictions
on transfer set forth herein and therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A or
Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuer,
shall (or shall direct the authenticating agent to) authenticate and deliver Notes that do not bear the legend.


 


(d)           The
Trustee and the Agents shall have no responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case
may be.


 


(e)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 2.06, the Issuer is not required to register the transfer of any Definitive Registered
Notes:


 


(i)            for
a period of 15 days prior to any date fixed for the redemption of the Notes;


 


(ii)           for
a period of 15 days immediately prior to the date fixed for selection of Notes to be redeemed in part;


 


(iii)          for
a period of 15 days prior to the Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date; or


 


(iv)          which
the Holder has tendered (and not withdrawn) for repurchase in connection with a Change of Control Offer, a Notes Offer or a Priority
Asset Sale Offer.


 






    32 


     


    

 


Section 2.07.          Replacement
Notes. If a mutilated Definitive Registered Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder claims that the Note has been lost,
destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall (or shall direct the authenticating agent to), upon receipt
of an Issuer Order, authenticate a replacement Note in such form as the Note mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken if the Holder
satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuer and any requirement of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Issuer,
such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Issuer and the Trustee to protect the Issuer, the Trustee,
the Paying Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar and any co-Registrar, and any authenticating agent, from any loss that any of them
may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note.


 


In the event any such mutilated,
lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may pay such
Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.


 


Every replacement Note shall
be an additional obligation of the Issuer.


 


The provisions of this Section 2.07
are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Notes.


 


Section 2.08.          Outstanding
Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by or on behalf of the Trustee except for those cancelled by it,
those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.09,
a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note.


 


If a Note is replaced pursuant
to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof satisfactory to them that the Note
that has been replaced is held by a bona fide purchaser.


 


If the Paying Agent holds,
in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal, interest, premium, if
any, and Additional Amounts, if any, payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing,
as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of
this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.


 


Section 2.09.          Notes
Held by Issuer. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction or consent
or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, Notes owned by the Issuer or by any of its Affiliates shall be disregarded
and treated as if they were not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying
on any such direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, only Notes which 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 so to act with respect to

Section 2.10.          Definitive
Registered Notes.


 


(a)            A
Global Note deposited with a custodian for DTC pursuant to Section 2.01 shall be transferred in whole to the beneficial owners thereof
in the form of Definitive Registered Notes only if such transfer complies with Section 2.06 and (i) DTC notifies the Issuer
that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as depositary for such Global Note or DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency
under the Exchange Act, and in each case a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of such notice, (ii) the
Issuer, at its option, executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Global Note shall be so
exchangeable or (iii) the owner of a Book-Entry Interest requests such an exchange in writing delivered through DTC following an
Event of Default under this Indenture. Notice of any such transfer shall be given by the Issuer in accordance with the provisions of
Section 11.01(a).


 


(b)           Any
Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Registered Notes pursuant to this Section 2.10
shall be surrendered by the custodian for DTC, to the Transfer Agent, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without
charge, and the Trustee shall itself or via the authenticating agent authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of
such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount at maturity of Notes of authorized denominations in the form of Definitive Registered
Notes. Any portion of a Global Note transferred or exchanged pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be executed, authenticated and
delivered only in registered form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and registered
in such names as DTC may direct. Subject to the foregoing, a Global Note is not exchangeable except for a Global Note of like denomination
to be registered in the name of DTC or its nominee. In the event that a Global Note becomes exchangeable for Definitive Registered Notes,
payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Definitive Registered Notes will be payable, and the transfer of the Definitive
Registered Notes will be registrable, at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purposes in accordance with Section 2.03.
Such Definitive Registered Notes shall bear the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.


 


(c)            In
the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 2.10(a), the Issuer shall promptly make available to the Trustee
and the authenticating agent a reasonable supply of Definitive Registered Notes in definitive, fully registered form without interest
coupons.


 


Section 2.11.          Cancellation.
The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee
any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, in accordance with its customary procedures,
and no one else shall cancel (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act and the Trustee’s retention policy)
all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and dispose of such cancelled Notes in its customary
manner. Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, the Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has redeemed, paid or
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.


 






    34 


     


    

 


Section 2.12.          Defaulted
Interest. Any interest on any Note that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on the dates and in the manner
provided in the Notes and this Indenture (all such interest herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease
to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid
by the Issuer, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below:


 


(a)           The
Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business
on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Issuer shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and
at the same time the Issuer may deposit with the Paying Agent 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 for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided
in this clause. In addition, the Issuer shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, such date to be not
more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the proposed payment date and not less than 15 days after the receipt by the Trustee
of the notice of the proposed payment date. The Issuer shall promptly but, in any event, not less than 15 days prior to the special record
date, notify the Trustee of such special record date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, the Trustee shall cause notice
of the proposed payment date of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be delivered first-class, postage prepaid
to each Holder as such Holder’s address appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date.
Notice of the proposed payment date of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor having been so delivered, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on such special record date and
shall no longer be payable pursuant to clause (b) below.


 


(b)           The
Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Notes in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given
by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment date pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed reasonably
practicable.


 


Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.12, 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, which were carried by such other Note.


 


Section 2.13.          Computation
of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.


 


Section 2.14.          ISIN
and CUSIP Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use ISIN and CUSIP numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee
shall use ISIN and CUSIP numbers, as appropriate, in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such
notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers or codes either as printed on the Notes or as contained
in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any
such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of any
change in the ISIN or CUSIP numbers.


 






    35 


     


    

 


Section 2.15.          Issuance
of Additional Notes. The Issuer may, subject to Section 4.07 of this Indenture, issue Additional Notes from time to time under
this Indenture in accordance with the procedures of Section 2.02. The Original Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional
Notes subsequently issued shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.

redeemed substantially concurrently.


 


(d)           Any
redemption pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of this Article Three.


 


Section 3.02.          Notices

date shall be not less than 15 days after the date of notice to the Trustee.


 


Section 3.03.          Selection

$1,000 in principal amount and any integral multiple thereof; provided that no Notes of $2,000 in principal amount or less may

(v)          that,
if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount (equal to $1,000 in principal amount or any integral multiple
thereof) of such Note to be redeemed and that, on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in
principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be reissued;


 


(vi)         that,
if any Note contains an ISIN or CUSIP number, no representation is being made as to the correctness of such ISIN or CUSIP number either
as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Notes;


 


(vii)        that,

paragraph of the Notes or section of this Indenture pursuant to which such Notes called for redemption are being redeemed.


 


At the Issuer’s written
request, the Trustee shall give a notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense. In such event, the
Issuer shall provide the Trustee with the notice and the other information required by this Section 3.04.


 


For Notes which are represented
by global certificates held on behalf of DTC, notices may be given by delivery of the relevant notices to DTC for communication to entitled
account holders in substitution for the aforesaid delivery.


 


(c)            In
connection with any redemption of Notes described in this Section 3.04, any such redemption and/or notice of redemption may, at
the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including the completion of any related refinancing or
a Change of Control. In addition, if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice
shall state that, in the Issuer’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions
shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions
shall not have been satisfied or waived by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed.

Issuer following a written request by the Issuer any money so deposited that is not required for that purpose.


 


Section 3.06.           [Reserved].


 


Section 3.07.           Payment
of Notes Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given in the manner provided above, the Notes or portion of Notes
called for redemption specified in such notice to be redeemed shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price
stated therein, together with accrued interest to, but excluding, such Redemption Date, and on and after such date (unless the Issuer
shall default in the payment of such Notes at the Redemption Price and accrued interest to the Redemption Date, in which case the principal,
until paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed in the Notes) such Notes shall cease to accrue interest.
Upon surrender of any Note for redemption in accordance with a notice of redemption, such Note shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer
at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; provided that installments
of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders registered as such at the close
of business on the relevant Record Date.


 


Notice of redemption shall
be deemed to be given when delivered, whether or not the Holder receives the notice. In any event, failure to give such notice, or any
defect therein, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of Notes held by Holders to whom such notice was
properly given.


 


Section 3.08.           Notes
Redeemed in Part.


 


(a)             Upon
surrender of a Global Note that is redeemed in part, the Paying Agent shall forward such Global Note to the Registrar who shall make
a notation on the Security Register to reduce the principal amount of such Global Note to an amount equal to the unredeemed portion of
the Global Note surrendered; provided that each such Global Note shall be in a principal amount at final Stated Maturity of $2,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 


(b)            Upon
surrender and cancellation of a Definitive Registered Note that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
for the Holder (at the Issuer’s expense) a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered
and canceled; provided that each such Definitive Registered Note shall be in a principal amount at final Stated Maturity of $2,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.


 






    39 


     


    

 


Section 3.09.           Redemption
for Changes in Taxes. The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less
than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Holders of the Notes (which notice shall be irrevocable and given in
accordance with the procedures set forth under Section 3.04), at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof,
together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption (a “Tax Redemption
Date”) and all Additional Amounts (if any) then due or which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the
redemption or otherwise (subject to the right of Holders of Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts (if any) in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in
respect of the Notes or the Note Guarantee, the Issuer or the Guarantor is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts (but, in the
case of the Guarantor, only if the payment giving rise to such requirement cannot be made by the Issuer without the obligation to pay
Additional Amounts), and the Issuer or the Guarantor cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, appointment of a new Paying Agent but excluding the reincorporation or reorganization of the
Issuer or the Guarantor), and the requirement arises as a result of:


 


(a)            any
change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction which change
or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction became
a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date); or


 


(b)            any
change in, or amendment to, the official application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including
by virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change or amendment
is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction
on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date) (each of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), a “Change
in Tax Law”).


 


The Issuer shall not give
any such notice of redemption earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer or the Guarantor would be obligated
to make such payment or Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes or the Note Guarantee were then due and at the time such
notice is given, the obligation to pay Additional Amounts must remain in effect. Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption of
Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall deliver the Trustee an opinion of independent tax advisor of recognized standing qualified
under the laws of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (which advisor shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) to the effect that there
has been a Change in Tax Law which would entitle the Issuer to redeem the Notes hereunder. In addition, before the Issuer delivers a
notice of redemption of the Notes as described above, it shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that
it cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts by the Issuer or the Guarantor taking reasonable measures available to it.


 


The Trustee will accept and
shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the existence
and satisfaction of the conditions as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on all of the Holders.


 






    40 


     


    

 


The
foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09 will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any successor of the Issuer (or the Guarantor)
with respect to a Change in Tax Law occurring after the time such Person becomes successor to the Issuer (or the Guarantor).

the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture. Subject to Section 2.04, principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional
Amounts, if any, shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer or any
of its Affiliates) holds, as of 12:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) on the due date, in accordance with this Indenture, money sufficient
to pay all principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, then due. If the Issuer or any of its Affiliates acts
as Paying Agent, principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, shall be considered paid on the due date if the
entity acting as Paying Agent complies with Section 2.04.

all necessary equipment and shall cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof,
all as in the judgment of the Issuer may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously
conducted at all times; provided that nothing in this Section 4.03 shall prevent the Issuer from discontinuing the maintenance

and the Guarantor as a whole.


 


Section 4.04.           [Reserved].


 


Section 4.05.           Statement

he or she would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signer knows of any Default that occurred during such period
and, if any, specifying such Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposed to take with respect thereto. For purposes
of this Section 4.05(a), such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under
this Indenture.


 






    41 


     


    

 


(b)            If
the Issuer shall become aware that (i) any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) any Holder seeks

Issuer (or the Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Priority Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair
Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of;


 


(ii)           at
least 75% of the consideration received in the Priority Asset Sale by the Issuer or such Subsidiary is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents

time such Priority Asset Sale is approved by the Issuer’s Board of Directors or (y) at the time the Priority Asset Sale is
completed); and


 


(iii)          if
the Priority Asset Proceeds thereof, together with any other Priority Asset Proceeds which have not yet been applied (x) in accordance
with Section 4.06(b) or (y) to make a Priority Asset Sale Offer, exceed $150.0 million, the amount of such aggregate Priority

only Priority Asset Proceeds are deposited), pending application in accordance with Section 4.06(b).


 


(b)            Within
450 days after the receipt of any Priority Asset Proceeds, the Issuer (or the applicable Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such

under such Indebtedness repaid pursuant to this clause(ii) by, at its option, (x) redeeming Notes as provided in Section 3.01
and/or (y) purchasing Notes through open-market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions at market prices (which may be
below par) and/or (b) make a Notes Offer to all holders of Notes to purchase their Notes on an equal or ratable basis with any Obligations
under such Indebtedness repaid pursuant to this clause (ii);


 






    42 


     


    

 


(iii)          to
make a capital expenditure; provided that the capital expenditure involves the acquisition of a Vessel by a new Principal Subsidiary
that is a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Guarantor (or by the Issuer and simultaneously contributed to a new Principal Subsidiary that
is a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Guarantor);


 


(iv)          to
enter into a binding commitment to apply the Priority Asset Proceeds pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 4.06(b); provided
that such binding commitment (or any subsequent commitments replacing the initial commitment that may be cancelled or terminated)
shall be treated as a permitted application of the Priority Asset Proceeds from the date of such commitment until the earlier of (x) the
date on which such acquisition or expenditure is consummated and (y) the 180th day following the expiration of the aforementioned
450-day period; and

Pending the final application
of any Priority Asset Proceeds (other than monies required to be deposited in a segregated account pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(iii),
the Issuer (or the applicable Subsidiary) may temporarily reduce borrowings under any revolving credit facility, or otherwise invest
the Priority Asset Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture.


 


(c)            Any
Priority Asset Proceeds that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.06(b) (it being understood that any portion
of such Priority Asset Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Notes as described in Section 4.06(b)(i) and/or Section 4.06(b)(ii) above
shall be deemed to have been applied or invested whether or not such Notes Offer is accepted) will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”
When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $75.0 million (or at an earlier time, at the option of the Issuer), within ten Business
Days thereof, the Issuer will make an offer (a “Priority Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of the Notes on a pro rata
basis and may make an offer to all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu in right of payment with the Notes (to the
extent as required by and in accordance with the terms of the documentation governing such other pari passu Indebtedness) to purchase,
prepay or redeem the maximum principal amount of the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (plus all accrued interest on
the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred in connection therewith) that may be purchased,
prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price for the Notes in any Priority Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100%
of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase, prepayment
or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment
Date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of a Priority Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may use
those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and
such other pari passu tendered into (or to be prepaid or redeemed in connection with) such Priority Asset Sale Offer exceeds the
amount of Excess Proceeds, or if the aggregate amount of Notes tendered pursuant to a Notes Offer exceeds the amount of the Priority
Asset Proceeds so applied, the Notes and the Obligations under such other pari passu Indebtedness, if applicable, to be purchased
shall be selected on a pro rata basis (or in the manner provided in Section 3.03), based on the amounts tendered or required
to be prepaid or redeemed; provided that, if applicable, such selection shall be conducted in a manner permitted by the indenture
governing the Secured Notes. Upon completion of each Priority Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.


 






    43 


     


    

 


The Issuer will comply with
the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations (and rules of any exchange
on which the Notes are then listed) to the extent those laws, regulations or rules are applicable in connection with each repurchase
of Notes pursuant to a Priority Asset Sale Offer or a Notes Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
or exchange rules conflict with the Priority Asset Sale Offer or Notes Offer provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will comply
with the applicable securities laws, regulations and rules and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Priority
Asset Sale Offer or Notes Offer provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

incurred and such Disqualified Stock and preferred stock may be issued after the acquisition, purchase, charter, leasing or rental or
the design, construction, installation, repair, replacement or the making of any improvement with respect to any asset (including Vessels));
provided that any such property (including Vessels), plant or equipment or other assets constitute Priority Assets; provided,
further, that the principal amount of any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock permitted under this clause (iv) did
not in each case at the time of incurrence exceed, together with amounts previously incurred and outstanding under this clause (iv) with
respect to any applicable Vessel, (A) in the case of a completed Vessel, the book value and (B) in the case of an uncompleted
Vessel, 80% of the contract price for the acquisition or construction of such Vessel, in the case of this clause (B), as determined on
the date on which the agreement for acquisition or construction of such Vessel was entered into by the Issuer or its Subsidiary, plus,

(vii)         the
incurrence by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer, the Guarantor or any

of the intercompany current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business in connection with the cash management operations
of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries and (b) only to the extent legally permitted (the Issuer and its Subsidiaries having completed
all procedures required in the reasonable judgment of directors or officers of the obligee or obligor to protect such Persons from any
penalty or civil or criminal liability in connection with the subordination of such Indebtedness) expressly subordinated to the prior
payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Note Guarantee and (iii) no Subsidiary of the Guarantor
may be the co-obligor or guarantor on such Indebtedness; and


 


(B)            (i) any
subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Issuer,
the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Issuer or the Guarantor and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person
that is not either the Issuer, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Issuer or the Guarantor, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute
an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (vii);


 






    45 


     


    

 


(viii)       [reserved];


 


(ix)          the
incurrence by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations and not for speculative purposes;


 


(x)           Guarantees
by the Guarantor of Indebtedness (taken together with the Indebtedness of the Guarantor under the Notes) in an aggregate amount not to
exceed $1,700 million at any one time outstanding, provided, if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari
passu with the Notes, then the Guarantee must be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness
guaranteed;


 


(xi)          the
incurrence by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries of Indebtedness (A) in respect of workers’ compensation claims, self-insurance

funds used to consummate the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person became a Subsidiary of the Guarantor
or was otherwise acquired by the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Guarantor;


 


(xiii)        Indebtedness
arising from agreements of the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries providing for customary indemnification, obligations in respect of
earnouts or other adjustments of purchase price or, in each case, similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection
with the acquisition or disposition of any business or assets or Person or any Equity Interests of a Subsidiary; provided that

case less all compensation, damages and other payments (including insurance proceeds other than in respect of business interruption insurance)
received by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries from any Person in connection with such Event of Loss in excess of amounts actually

thereto, to the extent already in effect with respect to the 2023 Guaranteed Notes); and


 


(xxvii)     Indebtedness
of the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries incurred in connection with any bareboat charter, lease or similar arrangements.


 


(c)            Subject
to clauses (xxv) and (xxvi) of Section 4.07(b), neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor will incur any Indebtedness (including
Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer or the Guarantor unless
such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the Note Guarantee on substantially identical
terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other
Indebtedness of the Issuer or the Guarantor 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 application of waterfall or other payment ordering provisions
affecting different tranches of Indebtedness under Credit Facilities.


 


(d)            For
purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.07, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more
than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xxvii) of Section 4.07(b), the Issuer,
in its sole discretion, will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence and only be required to
include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of such clauses and will be permitted on the date of such incurrence to divide
and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.07(b) and from time
to time to reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.07.


 


(e)            In
connection with the incurrence or issuance, as applicable, of (x) revolving loan Indebtedness or (y) any commitment relating
to the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock, in each case, in compliance with this Section 4.07,
and the granting of any Lien to secure such Indebtedness, the Guarantor or its applicable Subsidiary may, at its option, designate such
incurrence or issuance and the granting of any Lien therefor as having occurred on the date of first incurrence of such revolving loan
Indebtedness or commitment (such date, the “Deemed Date”), and any related subsequent actual incurrence or issuance
and granting of such Lien therefor will be deemed for all purposes under this Indenture to have been incurred or issued and granted on
such Deemed Date, including, without limitation, for purposes of usage of any baskets described herein (if applicable) (and all such
calculations on and after the Deemed Date until the termination or funding of such commitment shall be made on a pro forma basis giving
effect to the deemed incurrence or issuance, the granting of any Lien therefor and related transactions in connection therewith).


 






    48 


     


    

 


(f)             The
accrual of interest or preferred stock dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on
any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness
due to a change in accounting principles, the payment of dividends on preferred stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional
shares of the same class of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock, the accretion of liquidation preference and the increase in the amount
of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values will not be deemed to be an incurrence
of Indebtedness or an issuance of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.07.


 


(g)            For
purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent
principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a different currency shall be utilized, calculated based on the relevant currency exchange
rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred or, in the case of Indebtedness incurred under a revolving credit facility
and at the option of the Issuer, first committed; provided that (i) if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness
denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction
to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar- denominated
restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing indebtedness does not exceed
the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced; and (ii) if and for so long as any Indebtedness is subject
to a Hedging Obligation with respect to the currency in which such Indebtedness is denominated covering principal amounts payable on
such Indebtedness, the amount of such Indebtedness, if denominated in U.S. dollars, will be the amount of the principal payment required
to be made under such Hedging Obligation and, otherwise, the U.S. dollar-equivalent of such amount plus the U.S. dollar-equivalent of
any premium which is at such time due and payable but is not covered by such Hedging Obligation.


 


(h)            Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 4.07, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries may incur
pursuant to this Section 4.07 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency
values. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the
Indebtedness being refinanced, will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.


 


(i)             The
amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be:


 


(i)            in
the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount, the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance
with GAAP;


 


(ii)           the
principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and


 






    49 


     


    

 


(iii)          in
respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:


 


(A)            the
Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and


 


(B)            the
amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.


 


Section 4.08.           Liens.


 


(a)            The
Guarantor shall not and shall not cause or permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or otherwise
cause to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter
acquired, except Permitted Liens.


 


(b)            With
respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness,
such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness
shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value,
the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same
terms or in the form of common stock of the Issuer, the payment of dividends on preferred stock in the form of additional shares of preferred
stock of the same class, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a
result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness. For the avoidance
of doubt, any Lien that is permitted under this Indenture to secure Indebtedness shall also be permitted to secure any obligations related
to such Indebtedness.


 


Section 4.09.           Purchase
of Notes upon a Change of Control.


 


(a)            If
a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any
part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer (the “Change
of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer will offer a payment in cash equal
to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the
Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive
interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. No purchase in part shall reduce the principal amount at maturity of the Notes held
by any Holder to below $2,000.


 


(b)            Within
30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall mail a notice to each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s
registered address or otherwise deliver a notice in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.04, with a copy to the
Trustee, stating:


 


(i)            that
a Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Issuer to repurchase such Holder’s
Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but
excluding, the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest
Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”);


 






    50 


     


    

 


(ii)           the
repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered) (the “Change
of Control Payment Date”);


 


(iii)          that
the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.09 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer will be accepted for payment on the Change of Control Payment Date;


 


(iv)          the
Change of Control Payment;


 


(v)          the
names and addresses of the Paying Agent and the offices or agencies referred to in Section 2.03;


 


(vi)         that
Notes must be surrendered on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date to the Paying Agent at the office of the Paying Agent or
to an office or agency referred to in Section 2.03 to collect payment;


 


(vii)        that
the Change of Control Payment for any Note which has been properly tendered and not withdrawn will be paid promptly following the Change
of Control Payment Date;


 


(viii)       other
procedures that a Holder must follow to accept a Change of Control Offer or to withdraw such acceptance of the Change of Control Offer;


 


(ix)          that
any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest; and


 


(x)           that,
unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, any Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of
Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date.


 


In the case of a Change of
Control Offer that is notified in accordance with the foregoing prior to a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Change of Control
Offer may be conditioned on the occurrence of the Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change
of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.


 


(c)            Upon
receipt by the Issuer of the proper tender of Notes, the Holder of the Note in respect of which such proper tender was made shall (unless
the tender of such Note is properly withdrawn) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the Change of Control Payment with respect to
such Note. Upon surrender of any such Note for purchase in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder of such Note shall be
paid by the Issuer on the Change of Control Payment Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, registered as such on the
relevant Record Dates according to the terms and the provisions of Section 4.01. If any Note tendered for purchase in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 4.09 shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof, the principal thereof (and premium, if any,
thereon) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Change of Control Payment Date at the rate prescribed therefor in such Note. Holders
electing to have Notes purchased will be required to surrender such Notes to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the Change
of Control Offer at least one Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Any Note that is to be purchased only in part
shall be surrendered to a Paying Agent at the office of such Paying Agent (with, if the Issuer, the Registrar or the Trustee so requires,
due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar or the Trustee, as the case
may be, duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Issuer shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, one or more new Notes, of any authorized
denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for, the portion of the principal
amount of the Note so surrendered that is not purchased.


 






    51 


     


    

 


(d)            On
the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes
(equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit
with the Paying Agent an amount of money in same day funds sufficient to pay the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all
Notes or portions of Notes (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) which have been properly tendered; and
(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating
the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof accepted for payment by the Issuer. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail
(or cause to be delivered) to each Holder of Notes which has properly tendered and so accepted the Change of Control Payment for such
Notes, and the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee (or an authenticating agent appointed by the Issuer) shall promptly authenticate
and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to such Holders a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of
the Note surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples
of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note so accepted for payment will cease to accrue interest on or after the Change of Control Payment
Date. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control
Payment Date. Any Notes not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Paying Agent at the Issuer’s expense to the
Holder thereof. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on the Change of Control Payment Date.


 


(e)            A
tender made in response to a Change of Control Offer may be withdrawn if the Issuer receives, not later than the expiration date for
the Change of Control Offer, or if there is no such expiration date, one Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, a
written notice of withdrawal, specifying, as applicable:


 


(i)            the
name of the Holder;


 


(ii)           the
certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted;


 






    52 


     


    

 


(iii)          the
principal amount of the Note (which shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) delivered for purchase by the
Holder as to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted;


 


(iv)          a
statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such principal amount of such Note purchased; and


 


(v)          the
principal amount, if any, of such Note (which shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) that remains subject
to the original Change of Control Offer and that has been or will be delivered for purchase by the Issuer.


 


(f)            Subject
to applicable escheat laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Issuer any cash that remains unclaimed, together with
interest or dividends, if any, thereon, held by them for the payment of the Change of Control Payment; provided, however,
that, (x) to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Issuer pursuant to clause (ii) of paragraph (d) above
exceeds the aggregate Change of Control Payment of the Notes or portions thereof to be purchased, then the Trustee shall hold such excess
for the Issuer and (y) unless otherwise directed by the Issuer in writing, promptly after the Business Day following the Change
of Control Payment Date the Trustee shall return any such excess to the Issuer together with interest, if any, thereon.


 


(g)            This
Section 4.09 will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.


 


(h)            If
the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date, and no
additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.


 


(i)             The
Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations (and
rules of any exchange on which the Notes are then listed) to the extent those laws, regulations or rules are applicable in
connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities
laws or regulations or exchange rules conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply
with the applicable securities laws, regulations and rules and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture
by virtue of such compliance.


 


(j)             The
Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (i) a third party makes
the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture
applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change
of Control Offer or (ii) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 or Section 7 of
the Notes, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such
Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.


 






    53 


     


    

 


(k)            The
provisions of this Section 4.09 relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of
a Change of Control Triggering Event may be waived or modified with the consent of Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes
prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control.


 


Section 4.10.           Additional
Amounts.


 


(a)            All
payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Guarantor (including, in each case, any successor entity) under or with respect to
the Notes or the Note Guarantee shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present
or future Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law. If the Issuer, the Guarantor or any other
applicable withholding agent is required by law to withhold or deduct any amount for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by
or on behalf of (1) any jurisdiction (other than the United States) in which the Issuer or the Guarantor is or was incorporated,
engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision thereof or therein or (2) any jurisdiction
(other than the United States) from or through which any payment is made by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Guarantor (including, without
limitation, the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) or any political subdivision thereof or therein (each of (1) and (2), a “Tax
Jurisdiction”) in respect of any payments under or with respect to the Notes or the Note Guarantee, including, without limitation,
payments of principal, redemption price, purchase price, interest or premium, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay such
additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received and retained
in respect of such payments by each beneficial owner of the Notes after such withholding or deduction will equal the respective amounts
that would have been received and retained in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided,
however, that no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to:


 


(i)            any
Taxes, to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes (or a fiduciary,
settlor, beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant holder, if the relevant holder
is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) being or having been a citizen or resident or national
of, or incorporated, engaged in a trade or business in, being or having been physically present in or having a permanent establishment
in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or having or having had any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction,
other than any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or disposition of the Notes, the exercise or enforcement of
rights under such Note, this Indenture or the Note Guarantee, or the receipt of payments in respect of such Note or Note Guarantee;


 


(ii)           any
Taxes, to the extent such Taxes were imposed as a result of the presentation of a Note for payment (where presentation is required) more
than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the holder (except to the extent that the holder would
have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);


 






    54 


     


    

 


(iii)          any
estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;


 


(iv)          any
Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes or the Note Guarantee;


 


(v)          any
Taxes to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed or withheld but for the failure of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes,
following the Issuer’s reasonable written request addressed to the holder at least 60 days before any such withholding or deduction
would be imposed, to comply with any certification, identification, information or other reporting requirements, whether required by
statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Tax Jurisdiction, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the
rate of deduction or withholding of, Taxes imposed by the Tax Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, a certification that the holder
or beneficial owner is not resident in the Tax Jurisdiction), but in each case, only to the extent the holder or beneficial owner is
legally eligible to provide such certification or documentation;


 


(vi)          any
Taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment (where presentation is permitted or required for payment) by or on behalf
of a holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to the extent such Taxes could have been avoided by presenting the relevant Note to, or
otherwise accepting payment from, another Paying Agent;


 


(vii)        any
Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment by the Issuer or the Guarantor to the holder of the Notes if such holder is a fiduciary
or partnership or any Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that such Taxes would not have been imposed
on such payments had such holder been the sole beneficial owner of such Note;


 


(viii)        any
Taxes that are imposed pursuant to current Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code or any amended or successor version that is substantively
comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with, any regulations promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations thereof,
any intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States (or any related law or administrative practices
or procedures) implementing the foregoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to current Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code
(or any amended or successor version described above); or


 


(ix)           any
combination of clauses (i) through (viii) above.


 


In addition to the foregoing,
the Issuer and the Guarantor shall also pay and indemnify the holder for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, value added,
court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including penalties, interest and additions
to tax related thereto) which are levied by any jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, issuance, or registration of any of the Notes,
this Indenture, any Note Guarantee or any other document referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments with respect thereto, or
enforcement of, any of the Notes or any Note Guarantee (limited, solely in the case of Taxes attributable to the receipt of any payments,
to any such Taxes imposed in a Tax Jurisdiction that are not excluded under clauses (i) through (iii) or (v) through (ix) above
or any combination thereof).


 






    55 


     


    

 


(b)            If
the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any
payment under or with respect to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall deliver to the
Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises
after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer or the Guarantor shall notify the Trustee in writing promptly
thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so
payable. The Officer’s Certificates must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agents
to pay Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Issuer or the Guarantor will provide the Trustee with documentation
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of such Additional Amounts. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely absolutely,
and without liability to any Person therefor, on an Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.


 


(c)            The
Issuer or the Guarantor, if it is the applicable withholding agent, shall make all withholdings and deductions (within the time period)
required by law and shall remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with Applicable Law.
The Issuer or the Guarantor shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each Tax authority evidencing the payment of
any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The Issuer or the Guarantor shall furnish to the Trustee (or to a Holder of the Notes upon request),
within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment
by the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, or if, notwithstanding such entity’s efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are
not obtained, other evidence of payments by such entity.


 


(d)            Whenever
in this Indenture or the Notes 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 or any Note Guarantee, 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.


 


(e)            This
Section 4.10 shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, any transfer by a holder or beneficial owner
of its Notes, and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction (other than the United States) in which any successor Person
to the Issuer (or the Guarantor) is incorporated, engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction (other
than the United States) from or through which payment is made under or with respect to the Notes (or any Note Guarantee) by or on behalf
of such Person and, in each case, any political subdivision thereof or therein.


 


Section 4.11.           Reports
to Holders.


 


(a)            The
Issuer shall file with the Trustee, within 15 days after it has filed the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and
of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to
time by rules and regulations prescribe) which it may be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act; provided that the Issuer will be deemed to have filed copies of any such annual reports, documents or other
reports with the Trustee to the extent that such annual reports, documents or other reports are filed with the Commission via EDGAR (or
any successor electronic delivery procedure).


 






    56 


     


    

 


(b)            If
the Issuer is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will, upon request,
furnish to any prospective purchaser of the Notes or beneficial owner of the Notes in connection with any sale thereof the information
required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the U.S. Securities Act so long as any Notes remain outstanding and constitute “restricted
securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act.


 


(c)            To
the extent that any reports or other information is not furnished within the time periods specified Section 4.11(a) and such
reports or other information is subsequently furnished, the Issuer will be deemed to have satisfied it obligations with respect thereto
and any Default or Event of Default with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been cured.


 


(d)            Delivery
of reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and its receipt of such reports, information
and documents shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Issuer’s, the Guarantor’s or any other Person’s compliance with any of its covenants under this
Indenture or the Notes (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on the Officer’s Certificates delivered pursuant
to this Indenture). The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the content, filing or timeliness of any report delivered
or filed under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee
shall not have any duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance or performance by the Issuer of its obligations under this
Section 4.11 and the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for the Issuer’s nonperformance or non-compliance with such
obligations.


 


Section 4.12.           Re-flagging
of Vessels. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Subsidiary of the Issuer may re-flag a vessel that it owns or bareboat
charters or reconstitute or continue itself in another jurisdiction, or amalgamate or merge with or into another Subsidiary of the Issuer,
for the purpose of re-flagging a vessel that it owns or bareboat charters so long as at all times each Subsidiary of the Issuer remains
organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, the Republic of Liberia or any country recognized
by the United States. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Article Five will not apply to a reconstitution, amalgamation
or merger permitted under this Section 4.12; provided that any such reflagging transaction involving a Priority Vessel shall
not result in such Priority Vessel being owned by a Person that is not the Guarantor or a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Guarantor.

stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and, in the case in which a supplemental indenture is entered into, such supplemental
indenture, comply with this Section 5.01 and that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction
have been complied with. Clause (i) of this Section 5.01(a) will not apply to (i) any sale, assignment, transfer,
lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets to or merger or consolidation of the Issuer with or
into the Guarantor or (ii) any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of

to any Person, and may permit any Person to consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets

delivered to the Trustee by such Person and (iii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion
of Counsel, in each case, stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and, in the case in which a supplemental indenture is entered
into, such supplemental indenture, comply with this Section 5.01 and that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture
relating to such transaction have been complied with.

the provisions of Section 5.01(b) above, the Issuer or the Guarantor may consolidate or merge with or into an Affiliate incorporated
or organized for the purpose of changing the legal domicile of the Issuer or the Guarantor, reincorporating the Issuer or the Guarantor
in another jurisdiction or changing the legal form of the Issuer or the Guarantor.


 






    58 


     


    

 


Section 5.02.            Successor
Person Substituted.


 


In case of any such consolidation,
merger, transfer, lease or conveyance and upon any assumption by the successor Person, to the extent required under this Article Five,
such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, with the same effect as
if such party had been named herein as the party of the first part, and the predecessor Person, except in the event of a lease, shall
be relieved of any further obligation under this Indenture, the Notes and the Notes Guarantee, as applicable. If such successor Person
succeeds to and is substituted for the Issuer, such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own
name or in the name of the Issuer, any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer
and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor Person, instead of the Issuer, and subject to all the terms,
conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver any Notes which previously
shall have been signed and delivered by an Officer of the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes which such successor
Person thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects
have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms

Section 6.02.           Acceleration.


 


(a)            If
an Event of Default with respect to the Notes (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(ix) and 6.01(a)(x))
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
by written notice to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if such notice is given by the Holders) may and the Trustee shall, if so directed
by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, declare all the Notes to be due and payable
immediately. In the event a declaration of acceleration of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01(a)(v) has occurred and is continuing,
the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if the event of default or payment default triggering such
Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.01(a)(v) shall be remedied or cured, or waived by the Holders of the relevant Indebtedness,
or the Indebtedness that gave rise to such Event of Default shall have been discharged in full, within 30 days after the declaration
of acceleration with respect thereto and if the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree
of a court of competent jurisdiction.


 


(b)            In
the case of an Event of Default arising under Sections 6.01(a)(ix) and 6.01(a)(x), with respect to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries
that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding
Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice.


 


(c)            Subject
to the provisions of Article Seven, in case 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 at the request or direction of any Holders of Notes unless such Holders
have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against any losses, liabilities and expenses (including,
without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses).


 


(d)            Within
30 days of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying
such Default or Event of Default.


 


Section 6.03.           Other
Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to) in its discretion proceed
to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most
effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture
or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.


 






    61 


     


    

 



 


All rights of action and
claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee, without the possession of any of the Notes or
the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its
own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of
which such judgment has been recovered.


 


Section 6.04.         Waiver
of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, by written
notice to the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, rescind acceleration or waive any past or existing Default hereunder
and its consequences, except a continuing Default or Event of Default:


 


(a)            in
the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any Note held by a non-consenting Holder
(which may only be waived with the consent of each Holder affected); or


 


(b)            for
any Note held by a non-consenting Holder, in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified
or amended without the consent of the Holders affected by such modification or amendment.


 


Upon
any such rescission or waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and 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 Event of Default
or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


Section 6.05.         Control
by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 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 under this Indenture;
provided that:


 


(a)            the
Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, this Indenture or that the Trustee determines, without obligation,
in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction;


 


(b)            the
Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (it being
understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions are unduly prejudicial
to such Holders) or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; and


 


(c)            the
Trustee may withhold from Holders a notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is
in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, interest or Additional Amounts or premium,
if any.


 


Section 6.06.         Limitation
on Suits. No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture,
or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:


 


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


 






    62 


     


    

 


(b)            the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall have made a written request to the Trustee to institute
proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;


 


(c)            such
Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any losses, liabilities and expenses (including
without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) to be incurred in compliance with such request;


 


(d)            the
Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity and/or security (including
by way of pre-funding); and


 


(e)            during
such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction
that is inconsistent with the request.


 


The limitations in the foregoing
provisions of this Section 6.06, however, do not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder of a Note for the enforcement of the payment
of the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest, if any, on such Note on or after the respective due dates
expressed in the Note.


 


Section 6.07.         Unconditional
Right of Holders to Bring Suit for Payment.


 


Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to bring suit for the enforcement of payment of principal, premium, if any, Additional
Amounts, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes
shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.


 


Section 6.08.         Collection
Suit by Trustee. The Issuer covenants that if default is made in the payment of:


 


(a)            any
installment of interest on any Note when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or


 


(b)            the
principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Note at the Stated Maturity thereof, the Issuer shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal (and premium,
if any), Additional Amounts, if any and interest, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and Additional Amounts,
if any and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest, at the
rate borne by the Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the amounts provided for in Section 7.05
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, its agents and counsel.


 






    63 


     


    

 


If the Issuer fails to pay
such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding
for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same
against the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided
by law out of the property of the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.


 


Section 6.09.         Trustee
May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.05) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings
relative to the Issuer or the Guarantor, their creditors or their property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may
vote on behalf of the Holders at their direction in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions,
and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make 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 compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee
under Section 7.05. 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 to the Trustee under Section 7.05 hereof 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 which 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 empower the Trustee to authorize or consent to, or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder, any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.


 


Section 6.10.         Application
of Money Collected. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article Six, it shall pay out the money
or property in the following order:


 


FIRST: to the Trustee and
any Agent for amounts due under Section 7.05;


 


SECOND: to the Holders for
amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal of, premium, if any, interest (with interest (to the extent that such interest has
been collected by the Trustee and is permitted by Applicable Law) upon the overdue installments of interest and overdue principal at
the Overdue Rate) applicable to the Notes, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind,
according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any,
respectively; and


 


THIRD: to the Issuer, the
Guarantor or any other obligors of the Notes, as their interests may appear, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.


 






    64 


     


    

 


The Trustee may fix a record
date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 30 days before such record date, the Issuer
shall deliver to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. This Section 6.10
is subject at all times to the provisions set forth in Section 11.02.


 


Section 6.11.         Undertaking
for Costs. A court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or
in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party
litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Notes or to any suit by any Holder pursuant to Section 6.07.


 


Section 6.12.         Restoration
of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture
and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder,
then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Guarantor, 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 had been instituted.


 


Section 6.13.         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 shall, to the extent permitted by law, be 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
of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right
or remedy.


 


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


 


Section 6.15.         Record
Date. The Issuer may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to vote or to consent to any
action by vote or consent authorized or permitted by Sections 6.04 and 6.05. Unless this Indenture provides otherwise, such record date
shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished
to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.05 prior to such solicitation.


 


Section 6.16.         Waiver
of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon,
or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at
any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that
it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay
or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted.

Article Seven

TRUSTEE


 


Section 7.01.         Duties
of Trustee.


 


(a)            If
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice, the Trustee
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise
as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs.


 


(b)            Subject
to the provisions of Section 7.01(a), the Trustee (i) undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically
set forth in this Indenture and no others and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
and (ii) shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Indenture.


 


(c)            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.


 


(d)            The
Trustee shall not be relieved from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own
willful misconduct, except that:


 


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


 


(ii)           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 from the
Issuer or the Holders, including, without limitation, any direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.02 or Section 6.05.


 


(e)            The
Trustee and any Paying Agent shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee and any Paying Agent
may agree in writing with the Issuer or the Guarantor. Money held by the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law.


 


(f)            No
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee, each Agent, or the Principal Paying Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it
shall have grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to it.


 






    66 


     


    

 


(g)            Any
provisions hereof relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee or each Agent, as the
case may be, shall be subject to the provisions of this Article Seven.


 


Section 7.02.         Certain
Rights of Trustee.


 


(a)            Following
the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Trustee is entitled to require all Agents to act under its direction;


 


(b)            The
Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of such
Default or Event of Default from the Issuer or any Holder is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, at the Corporate Trust
Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. In the absence of receipt of such notice, the Trustee
may conclusively assume that there is no Default or Event of Default;


 


(c)            The
Trustee may rely conclusively, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other
paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person or Persons;


 


(d)            Before
the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both, which shall
conform to Section 11.02. 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 and such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel will be equal to complete
authorization;


 


(e)            The
Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder either directly or by or through its attorneys, custodians, nominees and agents
and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence or for the supervision, of any attorney, custodian, nominee or agent appointed
with due care by it hereunder;


 


(f)            The
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction
of any of the Holders, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security and/or indemnity (including by way of pre-funding)
satisfactory to the Trustee against any losses, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses)
that might be incurred by the Trustee in compliance with such request or direction;


 


(g)            Unless
otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer will be sufficient if signed
by an Officer of such Issuer;


 


(h)            The
Trustee (or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents) shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good
faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers;


 






    67 


     


    

 


(i)             Whenever,
in the administration of this Indenture, the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior
to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in
the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate and such matter be deemed to be conclusively proved and
established by an Officer’s Certificate, and such Officer’s Certificate shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the reliance thereof;


 


(j)             The
Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
document, but the Trustee, in its discretion (but shall have no obligation) may make such further inquiry or investigation into such
facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled
to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer personally or by agent or attorney;


 


(k)            The
Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety with respect to the performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers
under this Indenture;


 


(l)             In
the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders, each representing
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee
shall not be obligated to act upon any such directions unless and until it receives a joint instruction from such directing parties or
an instruction from one party with the consent of the other;


 


(m)           The
permissive rights of the Trustee to take the actions permitted by this Indenture will not be construed as an obligation or duty to do
so;


 


(n)            Delivery
of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 4.11 is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s
receipt of the foregoing will not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from
information contained therein, including the Issuer’s or any of its Subsidiary’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder
(as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates);


 


(o)            The
Trustee shall not be liable for interest on, or to invest, any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the
Issuer;


 


(p)            The
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee in this Indenture, including, without limitation, its rights
to be indemnified and compensated, are extended to, and will be enforceable by, the Trustee in its capacity hereunder, by the Registrar,
the Agents, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder;


 


(q)            The
Trustee may consult with counsel or other professional advisors and the advice of such counsel or professional advisor or any Opinion
of Counsel will, subject to Section 7.01(c), 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;


 






    68 


     


    

 


(r)            The
Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the covenants of the Issuer and/or its Subsidiaries in Article Four
hereof;


 


(s)            The
Trustee shall not have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance, and shall not be responsible or liable
for compliance with restrictions on transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, of minimum denominations imposed
under this Indenture or under Applicable Law or regulation with respect to any transfer, exchange, redemption, purchase or repurchase,
as applicable, of any interest in any Notes, but may at its sole discretion, choose to do so;


 


(t)            The
Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture arising
out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including, without limitation, any provision of any law
or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances;
sabotage; epidemics or other public health crises; riots; interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software)
or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action or any other causes
beyond the Trustee’s control whether or not of the same class or kind as specified above.


 


(u)            The
Trustee shall not under any circumstance be liable for any indirect or consequential loss, special or punitive damages (including loss
of business, goodwill or reputation, opportunity or profit of any kind) of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries even if advised of it
in advance and even if foreseeable.


 


(v)            The
Trustee may request that the Issuer deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of the individuals and/or titles of
officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed
by any Person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any Person specified as so authorized in any such certificate
previously delivered and not superseded.


 


(w)            The
Trustee shall not be liable to any Person if prevented or delayed in performing any of its obligations or discretionary functions under
this Indenture by reason of any present or future law applicable to it, by any governmental or regulatory authority or by any circumstances
beyond its control.


 


(x)            No
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to do anything which, in its opinion, may be illegal or contrary to Applicable
Law or regulation.


 


(y)            The
Trustee may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if the taking of such action in that jurisdiction would, in its opinion,
based upon legal advice in the relevant jurisdiction, be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or, to the extent applicable, the State
of New York and may without liability (other than in respect of actions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence) do anything
which is, in its opinion, necessary to comply with any such law, directive or regulation.


 






    69 


     


    

 


(z)            The
Trustee may assume without inquiry in the absence of actual knowledge that the Issuer is duly complying with its obligations contained
in this Indenture required to be performed and observed by it, and that no Default or Event of Default or other event which would require
repayment of the Notes has occurred.


 


(aa)         The
Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”)
given pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Issuer shall provide to the
Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”)
and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Issuer whenever
a Person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Issuer elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and
the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed
controlling. The Issuer understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions
and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the
incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Issuer shall be responsible for ensuring
that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Issuer and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible
to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt
by the Issuer. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s
reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written
instruction. The Issuer agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the
Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse
by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting
Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected
by the Issuer; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide
to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the
Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.


 


(bb)         In
order to comply with laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including
those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (“Applicable AML Laws”), the Trustee is
required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship
with the Trustee. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees to provide to the Trustee upon its request from time to time such identifying
information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Trustee to comply with Applicable AML Laws.


 


Section 7.03.         Individual
Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, any Transfer Agent, any Paying Agent, any Registrar or any other agent of the Issuer or of the Trustee,
in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of the Notes and, may otherwise deal with the Issuer with the
same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Transfer Agent, Registrar or such other agent. The Trustee may accept
deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Issuer or any of its Affiliates
or Subsidiaries as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Issuer
for services in connection with this Indenture and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Trustee or to the Holders
from time to time. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the TIA, the Trustee shall either
eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of this Indenture.


 






    70 


     


    

 


Section 7.04.         Disclaimer
of Trustee. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except for the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall
be taken as the statements of the Issuer, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations
as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of
the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture
nor shall it be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and it will not
be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement on the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of
the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.


 


Section 7.05.         Compensation
and Indemnity. The Issuer and the Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee such compensation as shall be agreed
in writing for its services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee
of an express trust. The Issuer and the Guarantor, jointly and severally, shall pay or reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for
all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions hereof or
any other documents executed in connection herewith including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services.
Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements, charges, advances and expenses of the Trustee’s agents
and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ.


 


The Issuer and the Guarantor,
jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees, representatives
and agents, from and against and reimburse the Trustee for any and all claims, obligations, losses, liabilities, expenses (including
attorneys’ fees and expenses), damages, injuries (to Person, property, or natural resources), penalties, stamp or other similar
taxes, actions, suits, judgments of whatever kind or nature regardless of their merit, demanded, asserted, claimed or incurred by or
against the Trustee directly or indirectly relating to, or arising from, claims against the Trustee by reason of its participation in
the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer
and the Guarantor (including this Section 7.05) and all reasonable costs required to be associated with claims for damages to Persons
or property, and reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and expenses and court costs, except to the extent caused by
the Trustee gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity.
Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer or the Guarantor of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer
shall, at the sole discretion of the Trustee, defend the claim and the Trustee may cooperate and may participate at the Issuer’s
expense in such defense. Alternatively, the Trustee may at its option have separate counsel of its own choosing and the Issuer shall
pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent may not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Issuer shall not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any losses, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct
or gross negligence conclusively determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal.


 






    71 


     


    

 


To secure the Issuer’s
payment obligations in this Section 7.05, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected
by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of all Notes under this Indenture.


 


When the Trustee incurs expenses
after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(ix) with respect to the Issuer, the Guarantor, or any Subsidiary,
the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Bankruptcy Law.


 


The Issuer and the Guarantor’s
obligations under this Section 7.05 and any claim or Lien arising hereunder shall survive the resignation or removal of any Trustee,
the satisfaction and discharge of the Issuer’s obligations pursuant to Article Eight and any rejection or termination under
any Bankruptcy Law, and the termination of this Indenture.


 


Section 7.06.         Replacement
of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor
Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.06.


 


The Trustee may resign at
any time by giving written notice to the Issuer and the Holders. The Holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the outstanding
Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer. The Issuer shall remove the Trustee if:


 


(a)            the
Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.08;


 


(b)            the
Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;


 


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


 


(d)            the
Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.


 


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


 


If the successor Trustee
does not deliver its written acceptance required by the next succeeding paragraph of this Section 7.06 within 30 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Notes may, at the expense of the Issuer, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.


 






    72 


     


    

 


A successor Trustee shall
deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee, as the case may be, and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation
or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, the retiring Trustee shall be released from its obligations hereunder, and
the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall deliver
a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall, at the expense of the Issuer, 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 subject to
the Lien provided for in Section 7.05.


 


If a successor Trustee does
not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of at
least 30% in outstanding principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee at the expense of the Issuer. Without prejudice to the right of the Issuer to appoint a successor Trustee in accordance with
the provisions of this Indenture, the retiring Trustee may appoint a successor Trustee at any time prior to the date on which a successor
Trustee takes office.


 


If the Trustee fails to comply
with Section 7.08, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.


 


Notwithstanding the replacement
of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.06, the Issuer’s and the Guarantor’s obligations under Section 7.05
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.


 


Section 7.07.         Successor
Trustee by Merger. Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to all or substantially
all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided such entity shall
be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article Seven, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office,
any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes
so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes. In case at that time any of the
Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder
or in the name of the successor Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force and effect which this Indenture
provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee shall have; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor
or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.


 


Section 7.08.         Eligibility;
Disqualification. There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is an entity organized and doing business under the laws of
the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power and which
is generally recognized as an entity which customarily performs such corporate trustee roles and provides such corporate trustee services
in transactions similar in nature to the offering of the Notes as described in the Offering Memorandum. The Trustee shall have a combined
capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.


 






    73 


     


    

 


Section 7.09.         Appointment
of Co-Trustee.


 


(a)            It
is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of
banking corporations or associations to transact business as trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation
under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the enforcement thereof on Default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by reason
of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee
or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith,
it may be necessary that the Trustee appoint an individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee. The following provisions of this
Section 7.09 are adopted to these ends.


 


(b)            In
the event that the Trustee appoints an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee, each and every remedy, power,
right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and Lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised
by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or co-trustee but only
to the extent necessary to enable such separate or co-trustee to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and only to the extent that
the Trustee by the laws of any jurisdiction is incapable of exercising such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation
necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.


 


(c)            Should
any instrument in writing from the Issuer be required by the separate or co-trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly
vesting in and confirming to it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing
shall to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of New York and the jurisdictions of organization of the Issuer, on request, be
executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer; provided that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
if the Issuer do not execute any such instrument within 15 days after request therefor, the Trustee shall be empowered as an attorney-in-fact
for the Issuer to execute any such instrument in the Issuer’s name and stead. In case any separate or co-trustee or a successor
to either shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations of such separate or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment
of a new trustee or successor to such separate or co-trustee.


 


(d)            Each
separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:


 


(i)            all
rights and powers, conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and may be exercised or performed by such
separate trustee or co-trustee; and


 


(ii)           no
trustee hereunder shall be liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder.


 






    74 


     


    

 


(e)            Any
notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees,
as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture
and the conditions of this Article Seven.


 


(f)            Any
separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to
the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate
trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and
trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successors
trustee.


 


Section 7.10.         Resignation
of Agents.


 


(a)            Any
Agent may resign its appointment hereunder at any time without the need to give any reason and without being responsible for any costs
associated therewith by giving to the Issuer and the Trustee and (except in the case of resignation of the Principal Paying Agent) the
Principal Paying Agent 30 days’ written notice to that effect (waivable by the Issuer and the Trustee); provided that in
the case of resignation of the Principal Paying Agent no such resignation shall take effect until a new Principal Paying Agent (approved
in advance in writing by the Trustee) shall have been appointed by the Issuer to exercise the powers and undertake the duties hereby
conferred and imposed upon the Principal Paying Agent. Following receipt of a notice of resignation from any Agent, the Issuer shall
promptly give notice thereof to the Holders in accordance with Section 11.01. Such notice shall expire at least 30 days before
or after any due date for payment in respect of the Notes.


 


(b)            If
any Agent gives notice of its resignation in accordance with this Section 7.10 and a replacement Agent is required and by the tenth
day before the expiration of such notice such replacement has not been duly appointed, such Agent may itself appoint as its replacement
any reputable and experienced financial institution. Immediately following such appointment, the Issuer shall give notice of such appointment
to the Trustee, the remaining Agents and the Holders whereupon the Issuer, the Trustee, the remaining Agents and the replacement Agent
shall acquire and become subject to the same rights and obligations between themselves as if they had entered into an agreement in the
form mutatis mutandis of this Indenture.


 


(c)            Upon
its resignation becoming effective the Principal Paying Agent shall forthwith transfer all moneys held by it hereunder hereof to the
successor Principal Paying Agent or, if none, the Trustee or to the Trustee’s order, but shall have no other duties or responsibilities
hereunder, and shall be entitled to the payment by the Issuer of its remuneration for the services previously rendered hereunder and
to the reimbursement of all reasonable expenses (including legal fees) incurred in connection therewith.


 


Section 7.11.         Agents
General Provisions.


 


(a)            Actions
of Agents. The rights, powers, duties and obligations and actions of each Agent under this Indenture are several and not joint or
joint and several.


 






    75 


     


    

 


(b)            Agents
of Trustee. The Issuer and the Agents acknowledge and agree that in the event of a Default or Event of Default, the Trustee may,
by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Agents, require that the Agents act as agents of, and take instructions exclusively from,
the Trustee. Prior to receiving such written notification from the Trustee, the Agents shall be the agents of the Issuer and need have
no concern for the interests of the Holders.


 


(c)            Funds
held by Agents. The Agents will hold all funds subject to the terms of this Indenture.


 


(d)            Publication
of Notices. Any obligation the Agents may have to publish a notice to Holders of Global Notes on behalf of the Issuer will be met
upon delivery of the notice to DTC.


 


(e)            Instructions.
In the event that instructions given to any Agent are not reasonably clear, then such Agent shall be entitled to seek clarification from
the Issuer or other party entitled to give the Agents instructions under this Indenture by written request promptly, and in any event
within one Business Day of receipt by such Agent of such instructions. If an Agent has sought clarification in accordance with this Section 7.11,
then such Agent shall be entitled to take no action until such clarification is provided, and shall not incur any liability for not taking
any action pending receipt of such clarification.


 


(f)            No
Fiduciary Duty. No Agent shall be under any fiduciary duty or other obligation towards, or have any relationship of agency or trust,
for or with any Person.


 


(g)            Mutual
Undertaking. Each party shall, within ten Business Days of a written request by another party, supply to that other party such forms,
documentation and other information relating to it, its operations, or the Notes as that other party reasonably requests for the purposes
of that other party’s compliance with applicable law and shall notify the relevant other party reasonably promptly in the event
that it becomes aware that any of the forms, documentation or other information provided by such party is (or becomes) inaccurate in
any material respect; provided, however, that no party shall be required to provide any forms, documentation or other information
pursuant to this Section 7.11(g) to the extent that: (i) any such form, documentation or other information (or the
information required to be provided on such form or documentation) is not reasonably available to such party and cannot be obtained by
such party using reasonable efforts; or (ii) doing so would or might in the reasonable opinion of such party constitute a breach
of any: (a) applicable law or (b) duty of confidentiality. For purposes of this Section 7.11(g), “applicable
law” shall be deemed to include (i) any rule or practice of any regulatory or governmental authority by which any party
is bound or with which it is accustomed to comply; (ii) any agreement between any Authorities; and (iii) any agreement between
any regulatory or governmental authority and any party that is customarily entered into by institutions of a similar nature.


 


(h)            Tax
Withholding.


 


(i)            The
Issuer shall notify each Agent in the event that it determines that any payment to be made by an Agent under the Notes is a payment which
could be subject to FATCA Withholding if such payment were made to a recipient that is generally unable to receive payments free from
FATCA Withholding, and the extent to which the relevant payment is so treated; provided, however, that the Issuer’s
obligations under this Section 7.11(h) shall apply only to the extent that such payments are so treated by virtue of characteristics
of the Issuer, the Notes, or both.


 






    76 


     


    

 


(ii)           Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture, each Agent shall be entitled to make a deduction or withholding from any payment which it makes
under the Notes for or on account of any Tax, if and only to the extent so required by Applicable Law, in which event the Agent shall
make such payment after such deduction or withholding has been made and shall account to the relevant Authority within the time allowed
for the amount so deducted or withheld or, at its option, shall reasonably promptly after making such payment return to the Issuer the
amount so deducted or withheld, in which case, the Issuer shall so account to the relevant Authority for such amount. For the avoidance
of doubt, FATCA Withholding is a deduction or withholding which is deemed to be required by Applicable Law for the purposes of this Section 7.11(h)(ii).


 


Section 7.12.         Subordination
Agreements. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, shall be deemed to have irrevocably authorized the Trustee to (i) execute each
Subordination Agreement (or an amendment thereto, to the extent already in effect with respect to the 2023 Guaranteed Notes) required
to be entered into by the Guarantor pursuant to this Indenture (and any further amendments thereto) and (ii) to perform the duties
and exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to the Trustee under each Subordination Agreement.


 


Article Eight

DEFEASANCE; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE


 


Section 8.01.         Issuer’s
Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuer may, at its option and at any time prior to the Stated Maturity of
the Notes, by a resolution of its Board of Directors, elect to have either Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 be applied to all
outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Eight.


 


Section 8.02.         Defeasance
and Discharge. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the
Issuer and the Guarantor shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to the outstanding Notes on the
date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose,
such Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding
Notes and to have satisfied all its other obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated
or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.08
and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest (including
Additional Amounts) on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Issuer’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 security payments held in trust, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder and the Issuer’s and the Guarantor’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) the provisions of this Article Eight.
Subject to compliance with this Article Eight, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding
the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 below with respect to the Notes. If the Issuer exercises its Legal Defeasance
option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.


 






    77 


     


    

 


Section 8.03.         Covenant
Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Issuer
and the Guarantor shall be released from their obligations under any covenant contained in Sections 4.04 through 4.09, 4.11 through 4.12
and 5.01 with respect to the Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant
Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, the Issuer 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 but, except as specified above, the remainder
of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby.


 


Section 8.04.         Conditions
to Defeasance. In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes:


 


(a)            the
Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable
Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient,
in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants (with respect to
any non-callable Government Securities), to pay the principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts and premium, if any) on the
outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must
specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;


 


(b)            in
the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee:


 


(i)            an
opinion of United States counsel, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, confirming that (A) the Issuer 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, the holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a
result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to 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; and


 


(ii)           an
Opinion of Counsel in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Issuer, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, to the
effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for tax purposes of such jurisdiction as a result of such
deposit and defeasance and will be subject to tax in such jurisdiction on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times
as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred;


 






    78 


     


    

 


(c)            in
the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee:


 


(i)            an
opinion of United States counsel, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, confirming that the holders of the outstanding
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; and


 


(ii)           an
Opinion of Counsel in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Issuer, which counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, to the
effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for tax purposes of such jurisdiction as a result of such
deposit and defeasance and will be subject to tax in such jurisdiction on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times
as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred;


 


(d)            no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting
from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness), and the
granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);


 


(e)            such
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement
or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced)
to which the Issuer or the Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or the Guarantor is bound;


 


(f)            the
Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent
of preferring the holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding
any creditors of the Issuer or others; and


 


(g)            the
Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent
relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.


 


If the funds deposited with
the Trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when due
because of any acceleration occurring after an Event of Default, then the Issuer and the Guarantor shall remain liable for such payments.


 


Section 8.05.         Satisfaction
and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture and the rights of the holders of the Notes shall be discharged and shall cease to be of
further effect as to all Notes issued thereunder, when:


 


(a)            either:


 


(i)            all
Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment
money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or


 






    79 


     


    

 


(ii)            all
Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (A) have become due and payable by reason of the delivery of
a notice of redemption or otherwise, (B) will become due and payable within one year, or (C) are to be called for redemption
within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and
at the expense, of the Issuer, and in each case, the Issuer or the Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with
the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities,
or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of
a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants (with respect to any non-callable Government
Securities), without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium and Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or
redemption; provided that, upon any redemption that requires the payment of a premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient
to the extent that an amount is deposited with the Trustee equal to the premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption,
with any deficit on the date of redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of redemption (it being
understood that any satisfaction and discharge shall be subject to the condition subsequent that such deficit is in fact paid);


 


(b)            the
Issuer or the Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it with respect to the Notes under this Indenture;


 


(c)            the
Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of
the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be; and


 


(d)            the
Issuer has delivered an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to
satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied; provided that any such counsel may rely on any Officer’s Certificate as
to matters of fact (including as to compliance with the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c)).


 


Section 8.06.         Survival
of Certain Obligations. Notwithstanding Sections 8.01 and 8.03, any obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantor in Sections 2.02
through 2.14, 6.07, 7.05 and 7.06 shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, any obligations of the Issuer or
the Guarantor in Section 7.05 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. Nothing contained in this Article Eight shall

Section 8.07.         Acknowledgment
of Discharge by Trustee. Subject to Section 8.09, after the conditions of Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 and Section 8.04

liability with respect to such money. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon request any money held by them for
the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Amounts, if any, that remains unclaimed for two years; provided

address (as set forth in the Security Register) notice that such money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified therein (which
shall be at least 30 days from the date of such publication or delivery) any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid
to the Issuer. After payment to the Issuer, Holders entitled to such money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless
an Applicable Law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall
cease.


 


Section 8.10.         Indemnity
for Government Securities. The Issuer shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee and the Paying Agent against any tax, fee or other

Certificate shall be an expense of the Issuer.

Article Ten

NOTE GUARANTEE


 


Section 10.01.       Note
Guarantee.


 


(a)            The
Guarantor, either by execution of this Indenture or a Supplemental Indenture, fully and, subject to the limitations on the effectiveness
and enforceability set forth in this Indenture or such Supplemental Indenture, as applicable, unconditionally guarantees, to each Holder
and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns on behalf of each Holder, the full payment of principal of, premium, if any, interest,
if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, on, and all other monetary obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes (including
obligations to the Trustee and the obligations to pay Additional Amounts, if any) with respect to, each Note authenticated and delivered
by the Trustee or its agent pursuant to and in accordance with this Indenture, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture (all the
foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Note Obligations”). The Guarantor further agrees that the Note
Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from the Guarantor and that the Guarantor
shall remain bound under this Article Ten notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Note Obligation. All payments under the
Note Guarantee will be made in U.S. dollars.


 


(b)            The
Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were a principal debtor and not merely surety, unaffected by,
and irrespective of, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of any Note or this Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions
of any Note or this Indenture, any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Issuer with respect thereto by the Holders or the
Trustee, or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor (except payment
in full); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification, indulgence or circumstance shall without
the written consent of the Guarantor increase the principal amount of a Note or the interest rate thereon or change the currency of payment
with respect to any Note, or alter the Stated Maturity thereof. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment,
filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require that the Trustee pursue or exhaust
its legal or equitable remedies against the Issuer prior to exercising its rights under the Note Guarantee (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any right which the Guarantor may have to require the seizure and sale of the assets of the Issuer to satisfy the outstanding
principal of, interest on or any other amount payable under each Note prior to recourse against the Guarantor or its assets), protest
or notice with respect to any Note or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that its Note Guarantee
will not be discharged with respect to any Note except by payment in full of the principal thereof and interest thereon or as otherwise
provided in this Indenture, including Section 10.04. If at any time any payment of principal of, premium, if any, interest, if
any, or Additional Amounts, if any, on such Note is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization of the Issuer, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as of the
date of such rescission, restoration or returns as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such times.


 






    85 


     


    

 


(c)            The
Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any
Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01.


 


Section 10.02.       Subrogation.


 


(a)            The
Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holders against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid to such Holders by the Guarantor
pursuant to the provisions of its Note Guarantee.


 


(b)            The
Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any Obligations guaranteed
hereby until payment in full of all Obligations. The Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and
the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 6.02
for the purposes of the Note Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration
in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Obligations as
provided in Section 6.02, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor
for the purposes of this Section 10.02.


 


Section 10.03.       Release
of Note Guarantee.


 


The Note Guarantee of the Guarantor shall automatically be released:


 


(a)            upon
the full and final payment of the Notes;


 


(b)            upon
Legal Defeasance, Covenant Defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Notes, the Note Guarantee and this Indenture as provided under
Article Eight; or


 


(c)            as
described under Article Nine;


 


provided
that, in each case, the Guarantor has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions
precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such release have been complied with.


 


The
Trustee shall execute such documents reasonably requested of it by the Issuer, to effectuate a release of a Note Guarantee permitted
hereunder, which documents shall be prepared and delivered to the Trustee by the Issuer. Each
of the releases set forth above (other than clause (c), if required) shall be effected by the Trustee without the consent of the Holders
and will not require any other action or consent on the part of the Trustee.


 






    86 


     


    

 


Section 10.04.       Limitation
and Effectiveness of Note Guarantee. The Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention
of all such parties that the Guarantee of the Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes
of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to
the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably
agree that the obligations of the Guarantor under its Guarantee will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to
all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantor result in the obligations of the Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting
a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law and not otherwise being void or voidable under any similar
laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.


 


Section 10.05.       Notation
Not Required. Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect the Note Guarantee
or any release, termination or discharge thereof.


 


Section 10.06.       Successors
and Assigns. This Article Ten shall be binding upon the Guarantor and each of its successors and assigns and shall inure to
the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by
any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically
extend to and be vested in such transferee or assigns, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.


 


Section 10.07.       No
Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under
this Article Ten shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further
exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified
are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article Ten at
law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.


 


Section 10.08.       Modification.
No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article Ten, nor the consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom,
shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall
be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Guarantor in any case shall
entitle the Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.

Indemnity. Any payment on account of an amount that is payable in U.S. dollars (the “Required Currency”) which
is made to or for the account of any holder or the Trustee in lawful currency of any other jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”),
whether as a result of any judgment or order or the enforcement thereof or the liquidation of the Issuer or the Guarantor, shall constitute
a discharge of the Issuer or the Guarantor’s obligation under this Indenture and the Notes or Note Guarantee, as the case may be,
only to the extent of the amount of the Required Currency which may be purchased in the London foreign exchange markets with the amount
of the Judgment Currency in accordance with normal banking procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the first Business Day following
receipt of the payment in the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Required Currency that could be so purchased is less than the amount

and hold harmless the holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, from and against all loss or damage arising out of, or as a result of,
such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this
Indenture or the Notes, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted
by any holder or the Trustee from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for
a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under any judgment or order.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

9.250% Senior Note due 2029


 


		1.	Interest



 


Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.,
a corporation incorporated and existing under the laws of the Republic of Liberia (together with it successors and assigns under the
Indenture, the “Issuer”), for value received, promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note from October 6,
2022 at the rate per annum shown above. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Issuer
shall pay interest on overdue principal at the interest rate borne by the Notes compounded semi-annually, and interest on overdue principal
and interest, including Additional Amounts, if any, will accrue at a rate that is 2.0% higher than the interest rate on the Notes. Any
interest paid on this Note shall be increased to the extent necessary to pay Additional Amounts as set forth in this Note.


 


		2.	Additional Amounts



 


(a)            All
payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Guarantor (including, in each case, any successor entity) under or with respect to
the Notes or the Note Guarantee shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present
or future Taxes unless the withholding or deduction of such Taxes is then required by law. If the Issuer, the Guarantor or any other
applicable withholding agent is required by law to withhold or deduct any amount for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by
or on behalf of (1) any jurisdiction (other than the United States) in which the Issuer or the Guarantor is or was incorporated,
engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision thereof or therein or (2) any jurisdiction
(other than the United States) from or through which any payment is made by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Guarantor (including, without
limitation, the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) or any political subdivision thereof or therein (each of (1) and (2), a “Tax
Jurisdiction”) in respect of any payments under or with respect to the Notes or the Note Guarantee, including, without limitation,
payments of principal, redemption price, purchase price, interest or premium, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay such
additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received and retained
in respect of such payments by each beneficial owner of the Notes after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts
that would have been received and retained in respect of such payments in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided,
however, that no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to:


 


(1)            any
Taxes, to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed but for the holder or the beneficial owner of the Notes (or a fiduciary,
settlor, beneficiary, partner of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, the relevant holder, if the relevant holder
is an estate, trust, nominee, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) being or having been a citizen or resident or national
of, or incorporated, engaged in a trade or business in, being or having been physically present in or having a permanent establishment
in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or having or having had any other present or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction,
other than any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or disposition of Notes, the exercise or enforcement of rights
under such Note, the Indenture or the Note Guarantee, or the receipt of payments in respect of such Note or the Note Guarantee;


 






    	 	A-5	 



     


    

 


(2)            any
Taxes, to the extent such Taxes were imposed as a result of the presentation of a Note for payment (where presentation is required) more
than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available for payment to the holder (except to the extent that the holder would
have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Note been presented on the last day of such 30 day period);


 


(3)            any
estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;


 


(4)            any
Taxes payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes or the Note Guarantee;


 


(5)            any
Taxes to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed or withheld but for the failure of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes,
following the Issuer’s reasonable written request addressed to the holder at least 60 days before any such withholding or deduction
would be imposed, to comply with any certification, identification, information or other reporting requirements, whether required by
statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of a Tax Jurisdiction, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the
rate of deduction or withholding of, Taxes imposed by the Tax Jurisdiction (including, without limitation, a certification that the holder
or beneficial owner is not resident in the Tax Jurisdiction), but in each case, only to the extent the holder or beneficial owner is
legally eligible to provide such certification or documentation;


 


(6)            any
Taxes imposed in connection with a Note presented for payment (where presentation is permitted or required for payment) by or on behalf
of a holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to the extent such Taxes could have been avoided by presenting the relevant Note to, or
otherwise accepting payment from, another Paying Agent;


 


(7)            any
Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment by the Issuer or the Guarantor to the holder of the Notes if such holder is a fiduciary
or partnership or any Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent that such Taxes would not have been imposed
on such payments had such holder been the sole beneficial owner of such Note;


 


(8)            any
Taxes that are imposed pursuant to current Section 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)
or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with, any regulations
promulgated thereunder, any official interpretations thereof, any intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the
United States (or any related law or administrative practices or procedures) implementing the foregoing or any agreements entered into
pursuant to current Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code (or any amended or successor version described above); or


 


(9)            any
combination of clauses (1) through (8) above.


 






    	 	A-6	 



     


    

 


In addition to the foregoing,
the Issuer and the Guarantor will also pay and indemnify the holder for any present or future stamp, issue, registration, value added,
court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including penalties, interest and additions
to tax related thereto) which are levied by any jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, issuance, or registration of any of the Notes,
the Indenture, any Note Guarantee or any other document referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments with respect thereto, or
enforcement of, any of the Notes or any Note Guarantee (limited, solely in the case of Taxes attributable to the receipt of any payments,
to any such Taxes imposed in a Tax Jurisdiction that are not excluded under clauses (1) through (3) or (5) through
(9) above or any combination thereof).


 


(b)            If
the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, becomes aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any
payment under or with respect to the Notes or any Note Guarantee, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the
Trustee on a date that is at least 30 days prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises
after the 30th day prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer or the Guarantor shall notify the Trustee in writing promptly
thereafter) an Officer’s Certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so
payable. The Officer’s Certificates must also set forth any other information reasonably necessary to enable the Paying Agents
to pay Additional Amounts to Holders on the relevant payment date. The Issuer or the Guarantor will provide the Trustee with documentation
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Additional Amounts. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely absolutely,
and without liability to any Person therefor, on an Officer’s Certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.


 


(c)            The
Issuer or the Guarantor, if it is the applicable withholding agent, will make all withholdings and deductions (within the time period)
required by law and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Tax authority in accordance with Applicable Law.
The Issuer or the Guarantor will use its reasonable efforts to obtain Tax receipts from each Tax authority evidencing the payment of
any Taxes so deducted or withheld. The Issuer or the Guarantor will furnish to the Trustee (or to a Holder upon request), within 60 days
after the date the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld is made, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing payment by the Issuer
or the Guarantor, as the case may be, or if, notwithstanding such entity’s efforts to obtain receipts, receipts are not obtained,
other evidence of payments by such entity.


 


(d)            Whenever
in the Indenture or 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 or any Note Guarantee, 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.


 


(e)            The
preceding obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Indenture, any transfer by a holder or beneficial
owner of its Notes, and will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuer (or the
Guarantor) is incorporated, engaged in business, organized or resident for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction from or through which payment
is made under or with respect to the Notes (or any Note Guarantee) by or on behalf of such Person and, in each case, any political subdivision
thereof or therein.


 






    	 	A-7	 



     


    

 


		3.	Method of Payment



 


The Issuer shall pay interest
on this Note (except defaulted interest) to the Holder at the close of business on the Record Date for the next Interest Payment Date
even if this Note is cancelled after the Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. The Issuer shall pay principal and interest
in dollars in immediately available funds that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided
that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Issuer by check mailed to the Holder.


 


The amount of payments in
respect of interest on each Interest Payment Date shall correspond to the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by this Note,

of this Note to the Paying Agent.


 


		4.	Paying Agent and Registrar



 


Initially, The Bank of New
York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. or one of its Affiliates will act as Principal Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer or any of its Affiliates

The
Issuer issued this Note under an indenture dated as of October 6, 2022 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time
to time, the “Indenture”), among, inter alios, the Issuer, the Guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust
Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”) and as Principal Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. The terms of
this Note include those stated in the Indenture. Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto
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.


 


		6.	Optional Redemption



 


At
any time on or after April 1, 2025, the Issuer may redeem on any one or more occasions all or a part of the Notes at the
Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, including
any Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of the Notes on the
relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the Redemption Date), if
redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of the years indicated below:


 


	Year	 	Percentage	 
	2025	 	 	104.625	%
	2026	 	 	 102.313	%
	2027 and thereafter	 	 	100.000	%



 






    	 	A-8	 



     


    

 


Prior to April 1, 2025,
the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed
plus the Applicable Premium (as calculated by the Issuer) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to,
but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of the Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest
due on the relevant Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the Redemption Date).


 


At any time and from time
to time prior to April 1, 2025, the Issuer may redeem the Notes with the net cash proceeds received by the Issuer from any Equity
Offering at a Redemption Price equal to 109.250% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional
Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of the Notes on the relevant Record Date to
receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the Redemption Date), in an aggregate principal amount
for all such redemptions not to exceed 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued under the Indenture on the Issue Date
(together with Additional Notes); provided that


 


		(1)	in each case the redemption takes place not
                                            later than 180 days after the closing of the related Equity Offering, and



 


		(2)	not less than 60% of the aggregate principal
                                            amount of the then-outstanding Notes issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately
                                            thereafter (including Additional Notes, but excluding Notes held by the Issuer or any of
                                            its Subsidiaries), unless all such Notes are redeemed substantially concurrently.



 


		7.	Redemption
                                            for Changes in Taxes



 


The Issuer may redeem the
Notes, in whole but not in part, at its discretion at any time upon giving not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written
notice to the Holders of the Notes (which notice shall be irrevocable and given in accordance with the procedures set forth under Section 3.04
of the Indenture), at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, to, but excluding, the date fixed by the Issuer for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) and all Additional Amounts
(if any) then due or which will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise (subject to the right
of Holders of the Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date and Additional Amounts
(if any) in respect thereof), if on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the Notes or the Note Guarantee,
the Issuer or the Guarantor is or would be required to pay Additional Amounts (but, in the case of the Guarantor, only if the payment
giving rise to such requirement cannot be made by the Issuer without the obligation to pay Additional Amounts), and the Issuer or the
Guarantor cannot avoid any such payment obligation by taking reasonable measures available (including, for the avoidance of doubt, appointment
of a new Paying Agent but excluding the reincorporation or reorganization of the Issuer or the Guarantor), and the requirement arises
as a result of: (1) any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the relevant
Tax Jurisdiction which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable
Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction on a date after the date of the Offering Memorandum, after such later date); or (2) any
change in, or amendment to, the official application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including
by virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published practice), which change or amendment
is announced and becomes effective after the date of the Offering Memorandum (or if the applicable Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction

The Issuer shall not give
any such notice of redemption earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer or the Guarantor would be obligated
to make such payment or Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes or the Note Guarantee were then due and at the time such
notice is given, the obligation to pay Additional Amounts must remain in effect. Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption of
the Notes pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall deliver the Trustee an opinion of independent tax advisor of recognized standing
qualified under the laws of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (which advisor shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) to the effect
that there has been a Change in Tax Law which would entitle the Issuer to redeem the Notes hereunder. In addition, before the Issuer
delivers notice of redemption of the Notes as described above, it shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the
effect that it cannot avoid its obligation to pay Additional Amounts by the Issuer or the Guarantor taking reasonable measures available
to it.


 


The Trustee will accept and
shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the existence
and satisfaction of the conditions as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on all of the Holders.


 


The foregoing provisions
of this paragraph 7 will apply, mutatis mutandis, to any successor of the Issuer (or the Guarantor) with respect to a Change in
Tax Law occurring after the time such Person becomes successor to the Issuer (or the Guarantor).

FORM OF SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT


 


SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT,
dated as of [ ], 202_ (this “Agreement”), by and among [ ], in its capacity as [agent] under the Debt Agreement (as
defined below) (the “Agent”), RCI HOLDINGS LLC, a limited liability company formed and existing under the laws of
Liberia (the “Guarantor”), ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD., a corporation incorporated and existing under the laws of
Liberia (the “Issuer”) and THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON TRUST COMPANY, N.A., in its capacity as trustee under the Indenture
(as defined below) (the “Trustee”), for the benefit of the Holders (as defined below).


 


Pursuant
to that certain Indenture, dated as of October 6, 2022, by and among the Issuer, as issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee, the
Issuer has issued $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 9.250% Senior Notes due 2029 (as amended, amended and restated,
supplemented, refinanced or otherwise modified, in whole or in part, from time to time, the “Indenture” and the “Notes”,
respectively).


 


As a result of the issuance
of the Notes, pursuant to [INSERT DESCRIPTION OF DEBT AGREEMENT] (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified
from time to time, the “Debt Agreement”) among the Issuer, [INSERT OTHER PARTIES,] the Agent and the lenders thereunder
(the “Lenders”), the Guarantor is required to execute and deliver to the Agent a subordinated guaranty, which guaranty
is dated as of [ ], 202_, with respect to the obligations under the Debt Agreement (the “Subordinated Guaranty”).


 


The Guarantor’s execution
and delivery of the Subordinated Guaranty in favor of the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, is conditioned upon the execution and delivery
by the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, of this Agreement pursuant to which the Agent and the Lenders (together
with each of their respective successors and assigns, collectively, the “Subordinated Parties”) agree to subordinate
their rights with respect to the Subordinated Obligations (as defined below) to the rights of the Senior Parties (as defined below) under
the Indenture and the Note Guarantee, all on the terms set forth herein.


 


Accordingly, the Agent, on
behalf of the Subordinated Parties, the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee, on behalf of the Senior Parties (and each of their respective
successors or assigns), hereby agrees as follows:


 


SECTION 1.         Subordination.


 


(a)            The
Agent on behalf of itself and the other Subordinated Parties hereby agrees that all of their respective right, title and interest in
and to the Subordinated Obligations shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the rights of the Trustee and the Holders
(as defined in the Indenture, and referred to herein, collectively with the Trustee, as the “Senior Parties”) in respect
of the obligations of the Guarantor (whether now existing or from time to time after the date hereof incurred, assumed, created or arising)
arising under the Indenture and the Note Guarantee, including the payment of principal, premium (if any), interest (including, without
limitation, interest accruing on or after the filing of any Insolvency Proceeding relating to the Subordinated Party or the Guarantor
pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed or allowable in any such Insolvency
Proceeding), fees, charges, expenses, indemnities, reimbursement obligations and all other amounts payable thereunder or in respect thereof,
in each case whether or not any of the foregoing is allowed or allowable as a claim in any Insolvency Proceeding (collectively, the “Senior
Obligations”). For the avoidance of doubt, “payment in full” (or similar term used herein) of the Senior Obligations
will not be deemed to have occurred so long as any Obligations under the Indenture remain outstanding (other than any inchoate obligations
for which no claim has been asserted).


 






    	 	E-1	 



     


    

 


For purposes hereof:


 


(i) “Credit Agreement”
means the definitive 364-Day Term Loan Agreement, which will be substantially consistent with the form of 364-Day Term Loan Agreement
attached to that certain Commitment Letter, dated as of August 12, 2020 (as amended and restated on March 24, 2021, as amended
and restated on August 11, 2022, as amended and restated on August 19, 2022, and as further amended, restated, amended and
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), between the Issuer and MORGAN STANLEY SENIOR FUNDING INC. (“MSSF”)
(with such changes to such form as are agreed between the Issuer and MSSF), as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise
modified from time to time.


 


(ii) “Limited
Guaranty” means the Limited Guaranty, dated the date of the Credit Agreement, made by the Guarantor in favor of MSSF
in its capacity as the administrative agent on behalf of the Other Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).


 


(iii) “Other
Lenders” means lenders from time to time party to the Credit Agreement.


 


(iv) “Other Senior Obligations”
means the Senior Obligations (as defined in the Other Subordination Agreement) (but only to the extent such principal amount is permitted
to be incurred or guaranteed by the Guarantor pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Debt Agreement).


 


(v) “Other Subordination
Agreement” means the subordination agreement executed by the Guarantor, the Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the Agent
in connection with the Limited Guaranty, the Credit Agreement, the Subordinated Guaranty and the Debt Agreement.


 


(vi) “Subordinated Obligations”
means all obligations of the Guarantor to the Subordinated Parties (whether now existing or from time to time after the date hereof incurred,
assumed, created or arising) under the Subordinated Guaranty, including in respect of principal, premium (if any), interest, fees, charges,
expenses, indemnities, reimbursement obligations and other amounts payable in respect thereof.


 






    	 	E-2	 



     


    

 


(b)            The
Issuer, Guarantor and the Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) agree that no payment (whether
directly, by purchase, redemption or exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) in respect of the Subordinated Obligations, whether
as principal, interest or otherwise, and whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made by or on behalf of the Guarantor
under the Subordinated Guaranty or received, accepted or demanded, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of any Subordinated Party
under the Subordinated Guaranty, until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Senior Obligations (other than any inchoate obligations
for which no claim has been asserted).  In the event that any payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets or other
property of, or any equity securities or debt securities issued by, the Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities
or other property, and whether directly, by purchase, redemption, exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise, including without limitation,
in connection with a plan of reorganization or other Insolvency Proceeding with respect to Guarantor, shall be received by or on behalf
of any Subordinated Party or any Affiliate thereof at a time when such payment or distribution is prohibited by this Agreement, such
payment or distribution shall be held by such Subordinated Party or Affiliate in trust (segregated from other property of such Subordinated
Party or Affiliate) for the benefit of, and shall forthwith be paid over to, (i) the Trustee, for the benefit of the Senior Parties,
until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Senior Obligations (other than any inchoate obligations for which no claim has
been asserted), and (ii) to the extent the Other Subordination Agreement is executed and if required thereunder, the Administrative
Agent.  To the extent any such payment is required to be made to the Administrative Agent and the Trustee, such payment shall be
made according to the pro rata share of the total Senior Obligations and Other Senior Obligations held by the Trustee and the Holders,
on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Other Lenders, on the other hand.  If the Trustee receives more than the
pro rata share to which it is entitled pursuant to the foregoing sentence, then the Trustee shall pay the excess over to the Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Other Lenders; provided that such payment shall not be payable until the Trustee has
been able to determine the outstanding amount of the respective pro rata share of the Trustee or the Administrative Agent, as applicable
(such determination to be made in reliance on either the information provided by the Issuer pursuant to the penultimate sentence of this
clause 1(b) or such other evidence as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems satisfactory).  For the avoidance of doubt,
the foregoing does not limit the ability of the Issuer to make payments of principal, premium (if any), interest, fees, charges, expenses,
indemnities, reimbursement obligations and other amounts payable in respect thereof.  For purposes hereof, the “pro rata
share” of any Person as of any time shall be determined based upon the share of the sum of the total Other Senior Obligations and
Senior Obligations held by such Person at such time. The Issuer agrees to advise the Trustee, the Administrative Agent or any Subordinated
Party, as the case may be, promptly upon request as to the outstanding amount of all Other Senior Obligations and Senior Obligations
and the respective pro rata share of Other Senior Obligations and Senior Obligations held by the Holders and the Other Lenders, in order
to facilitate the Trustee, the Administrative Agent or the relevant Subordinated Party receiving the pro rata payment to which it is
entitled or making the payment required to be paid in accordance with the foregoing (as applicable). Each Subordinated Party may conclusively
rely on and shall not be liable for relying on the aforementioned information from the Issuer in complying with its obligations under
this clause 1(b). To the extent a Subordinated Party receives information or instructions from the Issuer, Trustee or Administrative
Agent that are in conflict with, or are otherwise inconsistent with, the instructions or information received from one of the other such
parties (the Issuer, Trustee or Administrative Agent, as applicable), such information or instructions may be disregarded by the Agent
until such conflict or inconsistency is resolved between the Issuer, Trustee and Administrative Agent, as applicable.


 






    	 	E-3	 



     


    

 


(c)            The
provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the occurrence of an Insolvency Proceeding (as defined
below) against the Guarantor or any of its properties or assets until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Senior Obligations
(other than any inchoate obligations for which no claim has been asserted). Upon any distribution of the assets of the Guarantor or upon
any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Guarantor, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement
or receivership proceedings or otherwise, or upon any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets
and liabilities of the Guarantor, or otherwise (any of the foregoing, an “Insolvency Proceeding”):


 


(i)            the
Senior Parties shall first be entitled to receive indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Senior Obligations (whenever arising, and
including, without limitation, interest accruing after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding at the rate set forth in the Indenture
whether or not allowed or allowable as a claim in any such Insolvency Proceeding) (other than any inchoate obligations for which no claim
has been asserted) before the Subordinated Parties shall be entitled to receive any payment or distribution on account of the Subordinated
Obligations, whether of principal, interest or otherwise; and


 


(ii)           any
payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets of, or any debt or equity securities
issued by, the Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, to which any Subordinated Party would
be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 1 shall be paid or delivered by the Person making such payment or distribution
(whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver, custodian or liquidating trustee or otherwise) directly to the Trustee, for the benefit
of the Senior Parties, until the indefeasible payment in full of all Senior Obligations (other than any inchoate obligations for which
no claim has been asserted), and, to the extent the Other Subordination Agreement is executed and if required thereunder, the Administrative
Agent according to the pro rata share of the total Senior Obligations and Other Senior Obligations held by the Trustee and the Holders,
on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Other Lenders, on the other hand.  If the Trustee receives more than the
pro rata share to which it is entitled pursuant to the foregoing sentence, then the Trustee shall pay the excess over to the Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Other Lenders; provided that such payment shall not be payable until the Trustee has
been able to determine the outstanding amount of all Other Senior Obligations and Senior Obligations and the respective pro rata share
of Other Senior Obligations and Senior Obligations represented by the Trustee or the Administrative Agent, as applicable (such determination
to be made in reliance on either the information provided by the Issuer pursuant to the last sentence of this clause 1(c)(ii) or
such other evidence as the Trustee reasonably deems satisfactory).  The Issuer agrees to advise the Trustee or any Person making
a payment or distribution pursuant to this clause, as the case may be, reasonably promptly upon request as to the outstanding amount
of all Other Senior Obligations and Senior Obligations and the respective pro rata share of Other Senior Obligations and Senior Obligations
held by the Holders and the Other Lenders, in order to facilitate the Trustee or the Administrative Agent receiving the pro rata payment
to which it is entitled or making the payment required to be paid in accordance with the foregoing (as applicable).


 






    	 	E-4	 



     


    

 


In addition, the Agent (on
behalf of the Subordinated Parties) agrees that in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding (i) the Trustee, on behalf of the
Senior Parties, is irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of the Subordinated Parties or otherwise), but
shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in the preceding sentence
and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action as the Trustee may deem necessary or
advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interest of the Senior Parties and (ii) each Subordinated Party
shall duly and promptly take such action as the Trustee, on behalf of the Senior Parties, may reasonably request to (A) collect
amounts in respect of the applicable Subordinated Obligations for the account of the Senior Parties and to file appropriate claims or
proofs of claim in respect of such Subordinated Obligations, (B) execute and deliver to the Trustee such irrevocable powers of
attorney, assignments or other instruments as the Trustee, on behalf of the Senior Parties, may request in order to enable the Trustee
to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Subordinated Obligations for the account of the Senior Parties and (C) collect
and receive any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the applicable Subordinated
Obligations for the account of the Senior Parties (provided that the Issuer hereby agrees that it shall pay on demand all reasonable
and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each Subordinated Party in connection with any of the foregoing actions (including
the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for each such Subordinated Party)). A copy of this Agreement may be filed
with any court as evidence of the Senior Parties’ right, power and authority hereunder.


 


(d)            The
Guarantor and the Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) agree that, prior to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all
Senior Obligations (other than any inchoate obligations for which no claim has been asserted), no Subordinated Party may take any Enforcement
Action against the Guarantor (it being understood that this Agreement shall not affect any Subordinated Party’s rights or remedies
against any other obligor under or with respect to the Debt Agreement or any other Loan Document (as defined in the Debt Agreement))
without the prior written consent of the Trustee (acting upon the direction of the required holders), unless:


 


(i)            the
occurrence of, with respect to the Guarantor, an Insolvency Proceeding; or


 


(ii)           the
holders of Senior Obligations (including the holders of the Notes) have taken any Enforcement Action in relation to the Guarantor; or


 


(iii)          a
default has occurred in respect of the Subordinated Obligations (a “Subordinated Debt Default”); and


 


(A)          the
Subordinated Parties have provided notice of the Subordinated Debt Default to the Senior Parties (including the Trustee) in accordance
with Section 10 hereof; and


 


(B)          a
period of not less than 90 days (in the case of a payment default) or (ii) or 179 days (in the case of a non-payment default) has
passed from the date the Senior Parties (including the Trustee and the holders of the Notes) were first notified of the Subordinated
Debt Default (a “Standstill Period”); and


 


(C)          at
the end of the Standstill Period, the Subordinated Debt Default is continuing and has not been waived.


 






    	 	E-5	 



     


    

 


For the purposes hereof,
 “Enforcement Action” means, in relation to or with respect to the Guarantor, any action (whether taken by the relevant
creditor or creditors or an agent or trustee on its or their behalf) to: (i) demand payment, declare prematurely due and payable
or otherwise seek to accelerate payment of all or any part of such the Subordinated Obligations, (ii) recover all or any part of
the Subordinated Obligations (including, by exercising any rights of set-off or combination of accounts); (iii) exercise or enforce
any rights under or pursuant to the Subordinated Guaranty, (iv) commence legal proceedings against the Guarantor or (v) commence,
or take any other steps which could lead to the commencement of, an Insolvency Proceeding concerning Guarantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no Subordinated Party may in any Insolvency Proceeding concerning Guarantor: (i) oppose any sale of assets (including bidding procedures
relating thereto) with respect to the Guarantor; (ii) propose any debtor in possession financing or oppose any debtor in possession
financing or use of cash collateral with respect to Guarantor, in each case without the consent of the Trustee, acting on behalf of the
Senior Parties: (iii) seek appointment of a trustee or examiner with respect to Guarantor; (iv) propose, sponsor, vote in
favor of, or otherwise support any plan of reorganization or liquidation with respect to Guarantor unless such plan (a) provides
for the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Senior Obligations on or before the effective date of such plan or (b) the
Trustee, on behalf of the holders has provided its prior written consent with respect to such plan.


 


(e)            The
Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) waives all rights of subrogation it may have with respect to the Guarantor under the Subordinated
Guaranty until all amounts owing on the Senior Obligations shall be indefeasibly paid in full in cash (other than any inchoate obligations
for which no claim has been asserted), and, as between and among the Guarantor, its creditors (other than the Senior Parties) and the
Subordinated Party, no such payment or distribution made to the Senior Parties by virtue of this Agreement that otherwise would have
been made to the Subordinated Party shall be deemed to be a payment by the Guarantor on account of the Subordinated Obligations, it being
understood that the provisions of this paragraph (e) are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the
Subordinated Parties and the Senior Parties.


 


(f)            The
Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) and the Guarantor agree that any and all instruments or records (other than book entry
records or other internal records) now or hereafter directly creating or evidencing the Subordinated Obligations, whether upon refunding,
extension, renewal, refinancing, replacement or otherwise, shall contain the following legend:


 


“Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, neither the principal of nor the interest on, nor any other amounts payable in respect of, the indebtedness created
or evidenced by this instrument or record shall become due or be paid or payable, except to the extent permitted under the Subordination
Agreement dated as of [DATE], among the Subordinated Party, the Guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., in its
capacity as Trustee, which Subordination Agreement is incorporated herein with the same effect as if fully set forth herein”;


 


or shall otherwise refer to and be subject in
all respects to the terms of this Agreement.


 






    	 	E-6	 



     


    

 


SECTION 2. Waivers
and Consents. (a) The Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) waives the right to compel that any assets or property
of the Guarantor be applied in any particular order to discharge the Senior Obligations. The Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties)
expressly waives the right to require the Senior Parties to proceed against the Guarantor, or to pursue any other remedy in any Senior
Party’s power which the Subordinated Party cannot pursue and which would lighten the Subordinated Party’s burden, notwithstanding
that the failure of any Senior Party to do so may thereby prejudice each Subordinated Party. The Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated
Parties) agrees that it shall not be discharged, exonerated or have its obligations hereunder to the Senior Parties reduced by any Senior
Party’s delay in proceeding against or enforcing any remedy against the Guarantor; by any Senior Party releasing the Guarantor
from all or any part of the Senior Obligations; or by the discharge of the Guarantor by operation of law or otherwise, with or without
the intervention or omission of a Senior Party. The Senior Party’s vote to accept or reject any plan of reorganization relating
to the Guarantor, or the Senior Party’s receipt on account of the Senior Obligations other than the indefeasible payment in full
in cash thereof (other than any inchoate obligations for which no claim has been asserted) of any cash, securities or other property
distributed in any bankruptcy, reorganization, or insolvency case, shall not discharge, exonerate, or reduce the obligations of any Subordinated
Party hereunder to the Senior Parties.


 


(b)            The
Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Senior Parties,
even though that election of remedies, including any nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Senior Obligations, has
impaired the value of each Subordinated Party’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement or contribution against the Guarantor. The
Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) expressly waives any rights or defenses it may have by reason of protection afforded to
the Guarantor with respect to the Senior Obligations pursuant to any anti-deficiency laws or other laws of similar import which limit
or discharge the principal debtor’s indebtedness upon judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of real property or personal property
securing the Senior Obligations.


 


(c)            The
Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) agrees that, without the necessity of any reservation of rights against it, and without
notice to or further assent by it, any demand for payment of any Senior Obligations made by a Senior Party may be rescinded in whole
or in part by the Senior Party, and any Senior Obligation may be continued, and the Senior Obligations, or the liability of the Guarantor
or any other guarantor or any other party upon or for any part thereof or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time,
in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered, or released by the Senior Parties,
in each case without notice to or further assent by any Subordinated Party (to the extent contemplated by the Debt Agreement), which
will remain bound under this Agreement and without impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting the subordination and other agreements
provided for herein.


 


(d)            The
Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the
Senior Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Senior Parties upon this Agreement. The Senior Obligations, and any of them,
shall be deemed conclusively to have been created, contracted or incurred and the consent given to create the obligations of the Guarantor
in respect of the Subordinated Obligations in reliance upon this Agreement, and all dealings between the Guarantor and the Senior Parties
shall be deemed to have been consummated in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Subordinated Party acknowledges and agrees that the Senior
Parties have relied upon the subordination and other agreements provided for herein in consenting to the Subordinated Obligations. Each
Subordinated Party waives notice of or proof of reliance on this Agreement and protest, demand for payment and notice of default.


 






    	 	E-7	 



     


    

 


SECTION 3. Senior
Obligations Unconditional. All rights and interests of the Senior Parties hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of each Subordinated
Party and the Guarantor hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:


 


(a)            any
lack of validity or enforceability of the Indenture or the Note Guarantee;


 


(b)            any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Senior Obligations, or any amendment or
waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of, or consent to departure from, the Indenture or the Note
Guarantee; or


 


(c)            any
other circumstances that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guarantor in respect of the Senior
Obligations, or of each Subordinated Party or the Guarantor in respect of this Agreement.


 


SECTION 4. Representations
and Warranties. The Agent represents and warrants to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Senior Parties, that:


 


(a)            It
has the power and authority to execute and deliver and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and has taken all necessary action
to authorize its execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.


 


(b)            This
Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Agent and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Subordinated
Party, enforceable against each in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law.


 


(c)            No
consent or authorization of filing with, or other act by or in respect of, any governmental authority, is required in connection with
the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement.


 


SECTION 5. Waiver
of Claims. (a) To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) waives any claim it
might have against the Senior Parties with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence,
or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of the Senior Parties or their directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates with
respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Indenture or the Note Guarantee. Neither the Senior Parties nor any of their
respective directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon the Note
Guarantee or for any delay in doing so.


 


(b)            The
Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties), for itself and on behalf of its successors and assigns, hereby waives any and all now
existing or hereafter arising rights it may have to require the Senior Parties to marshal assets for the benefit of each Subordinated
Party, or to otherwise direct the timing, order or manner of any sale, collection or other enforcement of the Senior Obligations. The
Senior Parties are under no duty or obligation, and the Agent (on behalf of the Subordinated Parties) hereby waives any right it may
have to compel the Senior Parties, to pursue the Issuer or other Person who may be liable for the Obligations (as defined in the Indenture).

SECTION 6.         Further
Assurances. Each Subordinated Party and the Guarantor, at the expense of the Issuer and at any time from time to time, upon the written
request of the Trustee shall promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and take such further actions
as the Trustee reasonably may request for the purposes of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights
and powers herein granted. Upon the written request of any other party hereto, the Issuer shall reasonably cooperate and provide such
information as may be reasonably necessary to give full effect the provisions set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement.


 


SECTION 7.         [Reserved].


 


SECTION 8.         Provisions
Define Relative Rights. This Agreement is intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Senior Parties on
the one hand and the Subordinated Parties and the Guarantor on the other, and no other Person shall have any right, benefit or other
interest under this Agreement.


 


SECTION 9.         Powers
Coupled with an Interest. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are
irrevocable until the Senior Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash.

(it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision hereof in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect
the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the
invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
